CHAPTER 151: FRIENDLY TERMS AND SPIRITS

There were only a few days till Manaril’s live .

Looking at my golems wet with the morning dew, I thought to myself .

…… . I want to try using something else besides for apples as the water golem cores .

There were several water golems with apples for cores . That was fine in itself and they moved well, but increasing the variety and uses was not a bad thing . So…

「Fumu… . . I should go grab some magic stones . Hesty you wanna come with?」
「n, I’ll come . 」

I thought to go pick up some magic stones and go underground with Hesty but…

「Gu~」「Sha~」

When we entered, we found the wind and earth spirits carrying a ton of spirit stones over .


While they were at it, it seemed there were some magic stones as well .

「Umm……maybe we can use these?」
「We, probably, can . 」
「… . but I, didn’t give these guys any orders right?」

I hadn’t communicated to them my desire for magic stones . Why did they anticipate this and gather them?

「n, they may have heard, what we said above ground . The spirits’, sense of hearing, can be mixed in with nature . Also spirits, with a Master Servant, contract have an instinctive knowledge of the Master’s, desires . I think that may be, it as, well . 」
「Eh~ so they have that kind of power too?」
「Sha~」「Gu~」

The spirits nodded at me . It appears that Hesty’s explanation hit the mark .

「n, well, it’s not like they can read minds, and neither can I, it’s just a bit of instinct . Nothing more, nothing less . I think they moved due to your words . 」

I see so it’s not mind reading exactly . It’s nice that we were able to come to a mutual understanding, but it was surprising that they got things all prepared .

But, I am thankful, so I’ll pet them a bit .

「Keep it within reason…Ok guys?」
「Sha~!」Gu~!」

I said while patting their heads, and the spirits looked very happy as they wriggled .

「These guys act unexpectedly well . 」
「Once they, submit to a person, they will act to help them . Any spirit is the same . Even if it is a wild spirit, once they submit, they will be like that . 」
「Oh?」

As I recall the wind spirit had gone wild and was being violent, but right now it was lying around and exposing its belly to the air like a dog . It was to the point where you wouldn’t even realize that it was the same creature .

「These guys are strange creatures . 」
「Even for me, seeing the Four Spirits like this, is fresh . In fact, I’ve never seen it before . 」
「I’ve never seen it either…so we’re the same in that regard . But, Hesty you’ve seen the Four Spirits before?」
「n, in comparison…they were quite stern . 」

She said with a bitter look on her face, something must have happened in the past . But now they were acting almost like small animals, so there shouldn’t be any trouble .

「Well, I’m just glad that they’re being docile . 」
「That’s right… . . eh, ah, you should take your hand, off of them soon . 」
「Eh?」

I had kept petting them as we conversed…was that bad? I thought and looked at the spirit… .

「pshuuu~」

Both spirits were lined up on the ground letting off smoke .

「Eh………? What happened!?」

Their faces were pretty red…maybe they were in bad shape .

「No, this… . it looks like they got overexcited from you petting them . 」
「Isn’t this too big of a reaction from excitement?」

They were physically letting off smoke .
Though, their faces were quite happy .

「n, they are spirits . Their emotions are very visible . And it looks, like their bodies are, fine . 」

Hesty said while looking at the spirits .
They were looking at my hands and then…

「Sha~!!」「Gu~!!」

They happily twined around my arms .

「……I wonder if this will raise the sensitivity with them . 」
「n, probably . 」

I just went underground and pet them though .
It seems like this time my relations with the Four Spirits has improved .
