Maiden of Ice and Fire (8)

As always, the portal opened with ease.

The rest of the tormented rock predators connected to Ersa’s summoning circle.

A rift broke out between him and us, revealing the landscape of the spirit world.

The problem is now.

First, the spirit must respond.

Surely there is no answer to the topic you asked to find on your side?

Shaking my body with such anxiety, I was earnestly praying for her to appear.

Two figures flew in from the large crack.

The momentum was so fierce that I wondered if the meteorite I saw last time would fall again.

When I shrugged a little and then raised my head again, the two spirits were roaring in front of my eyes.

I can’t wait to be summoned so easily.

For some reason, it seems that he has been waiting for me very eagerly.

Now all you need to do is sign a contract.

As I was thinking about it, the two spirits, who were looking down at me, looked around the battlefield.

“Summoning both at the same time. How good did you get the Spirit Stone… Aha.”

The red spirit exuding dizzying heat found the rock predator and nodded as if understanding.

In the meantime, the cold blue color carefully looked at the link between me and my summoned beasts.

He smiles contentedly when he discovers that he is supplying the magical powers of Medusa and Persia, as well as the snakes and Euryale.

It sure looked happy, but somehow it was a terrifying and creepy smile.

“It’s much more than what the Spirit Realm sensed. That’s an incredible amount of mana.”

“Yeah. This is enough to be able to manifest all day long.”

“Then shall we sign a contract right away?”

“yes?”

Two spirits that appear to be S rank or higher even if you look closely.

I was preparing a long story to entice them, and I was surprised by the much easier process than I expected.

Even signing a contract with Persia was more cumbersome than this… Is there any reason?

but. In the first place, she had asked me to call her.

You don’t have to give up if they give you a contract from over there.

Before I changed her mind, I was in a hurry to prepare a contract ceremony.

The fire spirit next to him hurriedly intervened.

“Wait! Why are you secretly doing it first? Of course, I have to sign the contract first.”

“What do you mean? I was able to be summoned like this by talking to Lewis in the first place.”

“That’s because I needed chill at the time. Now it’s my turn.”

“Do not be ridiculous!”

The two spirits did not stop arguing, but started a real battle.

Since they haven’t received a supply of magic yet, they exchanged fierce battles with their bodies half-closed in the gates of the spirit realm.

I was stupid because I couldn’t figure out what the hell was going on, and Ersa, who was maintaining the summoning technique, called out urgently.

“What are you doing! Hurry up! End the contract before the portal closes!”

“No, I don’t even know why we’re fighting now…”

“That’s not mine. Are you a summoner?”

It seems that it is more difficult to maintain the portal than usual, and he is quite nervous.

As I watched the boulders falling nonstop, I modified the contracting formula.

Seeing them fighting over frivolous matters such as the order of contracts, it seems that they do not get along very well.

You may have to choose one of the two if you go on like this.

Chased by such thoughts, I exclaimed as if half gambled.

“Just do it all at once!”

“What?”

Sisters staring at me after stopping to burst out in the cold and heat.

However, his expression softened slightly when he pointed to the portal that was getting narrower by the minute.

“If you go on like this, you’ll be reverse summoned. When will I be able to get another spirit stone like that…”

Actually, it looks like there’s another rock looter in the direction the handmaiden disappeared…

I went into method acting with that fact erased from my mind.

In the meantime, the spirits, who have come to the idea that both of them may not be able to sign a contract, contemplate an agreement with dissatisfied voices.

“Why am I with Laurie…”

“I don’t like being with Ethel at the same time? In the beginning, the contract was a little more relaxed and moody…”

“Oh, I can’t stand it.”

Ersa, who was grinding her teeth next to her, intentionally narrowed the portal.

Then, the spirits recollected the sense of crisis and nodded their heads uncontrollably.

“I can’t help it. If I don’t get a contract like this, I’m the only one who’s upset.”

“I’ll be patient with you just this time. Will you do well?”

Two simultaneous contracts.

To be honest, I’m not sure, but I just nodded my head.

Here, if I hesitate, the contract goes away.

After desperately modifying the formula within a limited time, it is activated by designating two spirits.

Laurier and Ethel nodded their heads coldly without even reading the contract.

“Ice spirit Laurie, fire spirit Ethel! Will you share your fate with me, Louis El Cloud?”

“Yes! We are you.”

“You are us.”

“”From now on, we belong to Luis Elcloud!””

When it’s time to do it, the spirits chant with each other.

As I breathed a sigh of relief, a line of magical power sprung up from behind and continued with them.

He clenched his fists as he felt a sense of solidarity with his opponent, but suddenly an abnormality occurred.

A thin link began to bind the two spirits like a rope.

Link basically acts like a rein for dealing with pets… but as soon as you sign a contract, you get this reaction.

Did you edit the contract formula too hastily?

It’s been a while since I was surprised. Link, who had tightly gripped the two spirits, quickly pulled each other closer.

“Ah!”

“Wait, the contract is wrong… Ugh!”

Ethel and Laurie resisted belatedly, but they had already accepted it, so there was nothing they could do.

It was also a moment to watch the two spirits clash like an adult.

Soon the links were merged and completely settled.

When I open the Summoner’s Book, wondering what happened, the page assigned to them finally gives an explanation.

[Elemental summons, Laurie & Ethel.

Overall evaluation value – S rank.

Acquired skills […]

“The contract was made, but how…”

“El Cloud?”

Christine and Ersa urging me next to me.

I stuttered the results my confused head had produced.

“It seems like they tied the two together as a set and signed a contract?”

“What?”

“I can’t believe it. Why am I with Ethel…”

They say there is nothing wrong with them, so once I reverse-summoned them, I got a rough answer.

Because the two are treated as one, the spirits are sucked into the book at once.

Immediately after, they pop out all at once even when summoned.

Only then did the spirits properly grasp the situation and scream.

“Lou, Louis, you idiot! Why did you tie up a contract with this guy!”

“In that case, you can’t meet Ethel apart from each other, right?”

I’ve been thinking about it for a while, but it seems like it’s ruined.

I apologized coolly before it was too late.

“I’m sorry. It’s my first time signing a contract at the same time.”

“No. Aside from having to go with Laurie, I can’t handle the consumption of your magic…”

“Is it okay?”

Spirits staring at each other without talking.

Obviously, the consumption of mana is higher than ever before, but it is still not lacking.

Still, it feels like a storm is raging in my heart, so I don’t want to keep it for long.

While we were barely real, Euryale, who was facing the rock predator in front of us, shouted.

“How long will you be chatting behind my back!”

“It’s a little noisy.”

“Let’s sort that out first.”

For some reason, the spirits who reached an amicable agreement waved their hands toward the rock predator.

Then, the giant body that had endured the attacks of S-Ranks collapsed in vain.

The scales that were still attached fell off, and the inside exploded.

The rocky flesh flew frantically, causing further destruction.

The Summoner’s Book was definitely an S rank, right?

Laurie shrugs as I put those thoughts on my face.

“Because he ate a lot of spirit stones without fear…”

“Our match is the worst. It doesn’t matter whether a guy like that is a hundred or a thousand.”

“ah…”

It was a climax enough to overcome the rank difference.

As he was praising the sullen bastards, Euryale strides towards him.

“What, the number of summons has increased recently? The Summoner of Medusha hopes well…”

“Thank you for coming, sister.”

When Medusha was hugged by her sister once more, her slightly angry face changed to a happy one.

After hugging her cute little brother face to face, she quickly prepares to return.

“The summoner will be looking for you by now, so you should go back soon. Come to the south to play later.”

“Yeah! I’ll go to Beltern for field training in the second semester.”

“Hey, Summoner over there! Just make Medusha ring!”

Finally, Euryale, who threatened me, disappeared into the portal.

As soon as her sister disappeared, Medusha wiped the smile from her face and said, looking at me coldly.

“Louis. Did I save you?”

“I couldn’t live without you.”

“Wait, stay away from me. You’re making me weak.”

“Because of the link, the distance… Profit! You are the one!”

The two spirits can’t stand the brief gap and start to slap again.

Standing in the midst of all this chaos, the handmaiden ran silently from the other side of the cavity.

“Huh? You’ve already done it. You’re proud of it.”

“Louise! Cut the contract right now and separate from Ethel… Heeik!”

Laurie, who had been demanding with an angry voice, found the handmaiden and was terrified.

When the terrified guy sneaks into the Summoner’s Book, Ethel disappears with him.

Thanks to that, a little quieter joint.

I think we just have to get out now, but it doesn’t seem like it will be easy since the passage collapses very well.

“What, where did they go?”

“I guess I’m tired. By the way, when will I be able to clean this all up…”

As I postponed the depletion of magic by making a rough excuse, Collingwood’s receptionist, who was tucked away in a corner, said coldly.

“The rescue team must have departed from the ground by now. If it was a vibration like this, the ground staff would have noticed…”

“You’re controlling access right now. You know you’ve run out of spirit stone veins…”

When Ersa asked a sarcastic question, the receptionist’s face was colored with contemplation.

However, the rocks and soil that were blocking the passage were slowly removed so that such a pincup would be insignificant.

We sighed in relief as we saw the faces that appeared from the other side.

“Royal Guard?”

“Princess Elena sent it to me.”

Perhaps Princess Elena, who completed her evacuation to a safe place, trained her own bodyguards.

They quickly made a hole for us to escape.

Medusha growled slightly when she saw such an escort, but… they were only faithful to their escort mission.

Eventually, as I climbed up the rope ladder I had installed earlier, Elena grabbed my hand.

“Count El Cloud! You’re safe.”

“Yes. Her Majesty the Princess has sent an escort unit…”

Elena shakes her head hard when she says something she doesn’t even want.

Tired of the dust of the mine, we quickly escaped under the sunlight in a tramcar.

While Medusha is staring at me quietly.

Persia, who was guarding her neck, sighed and muttered.

“It’s really terrible under the ground. I don’t want to come again.”

“I know.”

As I was joking around, Princess Elena said something to the guide in Collingwood.

The guide, who nodded vigorously with a frightened expression on his face, shouts loudly as soon as he escapes the mine.

“Your Excellency, Earl of Elcloud, has unearthed a new vein! Your Excellency, Earl of Elcloud…”

“Wow, ore veins?”

“I wonder if the veins were dry…”

“But you found a new one? So, can we get in now?”

The miners who had been wasting their time around the closed mines got up and started cheering.

I walked between them with a very heavy feeling.
