Swordmaster of the Red Light District

contract (3)

58

The wind spirit disappeared after being ordered to bring a friend.

Rey handed Floria a cloak to cover her body and asked what she was curious about.

“Can the spirits observe us without materializing?”

“Observation…”

Floria gathered her thoughts for a moment.

Since Floria had a very deep connection with the spirits, she also partially understood the physiology of the spirits.

“If we don’t materialize it through a contract, we can’t directly observe our dimension. But we can feel it.”

Floria raised her head and looked at the ceiling with a hole in the middle.

“If there’s a fight going on up there, you can’t see it directly, but you can feel the vibrations flowing through the wall? I wonder if that’s the principle…”

“I see. Do you know what form of community between spirits is?”

“Communication with each other will not be active. Even if they form a group, they say that only those who have the same origin and similar ranks gather.”

“Then I’ll bring a bastard like him.”

“Flan.”

“yes?”

“It was Planang. The name I gave that bastard.”

“ha ha ha.”

Ray laughed lowly.

Various emotions passed through Floria’s face as she spoke the name of the wolf spirit in her mouth.

Ray was going to continue the conversation, but ‘Plan’ appeared out of the air.

Wheeik!

The wind blows out of nowhere

Read at n̲o̲b̲l̲e̲m̲t̲l̲.̲c̲o̲m̲

Next to Planang, something hazy was glimmering.

Alessia held out her pounding chest and stretched out her hand.

A circle made of mana is engraved on the ground as if covering Alesia widely, and the blurry image of the spirit becomes a little clearer.

It was a wind spirit in the form of a wolf, similar to Planang.

Alesia, who succeeded in the first procedure to sign a contract with the spirit, trembled with excitement.

“Oh, he, he, spirit. Will you make a contract with me?”

A rune floats above Alesia’s circle.

It has been a long time since the wizard started making a contract with the spirit, and now the contract with the spirit has been standardized to some extent by type.

Alesia’s contract was a type that was relatively advantageous to the spirits among the standardized contracts.

Still, the wind spirit opened its mouth wide and pointed its sharp teeth at Alesia.

[Creung!]

“Wow!”

Alesia, startled, stabbed her ass.

The spirit continued to growl, expressing dissatisfaction with Alesia.

It must have been that Alessia didn’t like that she was a Monnacle, but Rey tore the corners of her mouth long and raised her sword.

The moment when the spirit who has finished arguing with Alesia is about to disappear after unraveling the temporary reality.

The space sword fell down.

pooh!!

[Kaegaeng!! 👑!!]

The spirit stabbed in the back howled like a dog.

Rey pulled the struggling spirit into her arms and whispered in the spirit’s ear.

“I know that?”

Rey’s fingers point towards Planang, crumpled in the corner of the labyrinth.

“Your friend sold you.”

[Creuk?!]

Rey twisted his sword as anger was about to burst into the wind spirit’s eyes.

{Kaegaeng!! 🥺!! 👽!!]

Screaming once more, the spirit struggling in the air began to resonate with the runes Alesia had created.

However, before the contract engraving was completed, Rey stopped Alesia.

“Alesia, let’s change the contract.”

“How can I change it?”

“So…”

Rey had already completed a contract long ago with the help of Count Phillips to completely bind the spirits in case of such a situation.

When Alessia drew the new contract engraving, the spirit turned her head instead of whining and looked at Rey with sorrowful eyes.

Hey, anyway, isn’t this too much? I didn’t do anything wrong to you.

Roughly that kind of emotion was contained in the spirit’s eyes.

Rey asked, tilting her head at an angle.

“Put it in? What if I twist it?”

[…]

The spirit realized. I’ve been caught by the crazy guy.

In the end, the spirit had to sign a slave contract with Alesia.

The spirit, who had been enslaved for decades, went to Planang and growled with its teeth exposed.

Planang also brazenly poked his teeth against each other, and at that moment, Rey drew his sword and swung it in the air.

“Uh-huh, where do these bastards open their mouths without their owner’s permission? Would you like to get one more stab?”

[…]

[…]

Rey, who smiled contentedly at the quiet spirit, asked Floria.

“Could you order me to bring you a stronger friend this time?”

“Uh, um… didn’t it end with one?”

Floria hesitated for a moment, then shook her head.

*

The second spirit summoned was a wind spirit with the shape of a huge eagle.

Unlike the wolf spirits, which are intermediate spirits, the upper intermediate spirits, Eagle Spirits, resisted quite stubbornly.

When Rey began to slice through the winged shoulder blades like a saw, he eventually surrendered and signed a slavery contract.

Among the spirits crawling with a sad expression, Alessia dug into her face with emotion.

“I have a spirit too!!”

Alesia hugged the spirit wolf and the spirit eagle and rubbed her cheeks on both sides and smiled.

“The beginning was a bit rough, but let’s do well in the future!”

After hesitating for a while, the wolf spirit turned over and began to play aegyo.

When Alessia smiled and liked her, the wolf spirit shook her body even harder.

“He’s a spirit who knows how to live a social life…”

Rey, frankly admiring, asked Alesia.

“Alesia, how about celomere?”

“Ummm… I think I’m full of this contract…”

The capacity of the contract engraving that can be engraved on celomere is limited.

Due to the contract with one intermediate spirit, one upper intermediate spirit, and Floria, Alesia’s Celomere reached saturation.

It wasn’t that Alessia wasn’t talented.

Even in most naturals, if you signed a contract with two or three intermediate spirits or one high-level spirit, most of the capacity of the celomere would be full.

Alessia felt regret for a moment that she could no longer sign a contract with the spirit, but then she thought while stroking the wolf spirit’s belly with a happy expression on her face.

“I want to name the spirits! What do you think would be good?”

Ray scratched her head and asked.

“Do you like cute things? Do you like grandiose ones?”

“If I had to choose, the bigger one would be better!”

Ray replied succinctly.

“How about Fenrir and Phoenix?”

“I feel like it’s too much, but it’s a cool name! I like it!”

Alessia smiled brightly and gave the spirit a name.

Meanwhile, Rey approached Floria and asked.

“Doesn’t the lady need more spirits?”

“Thanks for the advice, but I’ll take only my heart.”

Floria smiled and shook her head.

If you are going to make a contract with a spirit using coercion as it is now, you will inevitably put strong restrictions on the spirit.

I would almost get stabbed in the back if I allowed freedom, so I had to hold onto the leash unconditionally.

However, due to the nature of the contract engraving, it is necessary to consume a huge amount of celomere in order to impose restrictions close to the slave contract.

It was not an inefficient choice because 100% of the power of the spirits could be utilized if the slave contract was signed, but Floria did not want to increase the number of spirits right now.

“For the time being, I want to have a conversation with this guy alone.”

Flange caught Floria’s gaze and slammed her head into the ground.

Rey nodded and looked up at the ceiling.

Floria’s job was well done, and now it was time to fix up the knights who would have been stunned by the wall.

*

Forcing mana into certain areas of the head can cause short-term memory loss.

However, in the case of a knight with resistance to external magic, even if he scratched his head with mana, he could feel the confusion of his memory, but he could recall the approximate circumstances of the situation.

For Ray, that was enough.

The Knights of House Osiris remembered that they had been attacked by Jenkinson and Rey, but not exactly how they were subdued.

“These crazy people…!!”

Of course, the knights of the Osiris family, who came to their senses, drew out their swords with a vicious force.

She was attacked first, and when she woke up after fainting, Floria’s cheeks were terribly swollen, so it was strange not to bubble.

Floria took a long time to convince the knights.

He said that Alesia helped him renew his contract with the spirit.

The Osiris Knights did not quite understand Floria’s explanation that, although the method of helping was radical, she received great grace.

However, when Alessia showed her how to freely handle the spirits, the knights of the Osiris family nodded their heads dissatisfied.

It is common knowledge that it is difficult for a Monnacle to make a contract with a spirit.

Floria explained that Alesia was able to contract with the spirits thanks to her unique constitution, and that she used that constitution to help her renew her contract.

It made sense, and Osiris put his swords on the knights.

Of course, I forgot to warn you by grinding your teeth.

“I will definitely report this to Count Osiris.”

Jenkinson nodded his head without saying a word.

If I played around with my mouth any more, it would only be provocation.

When we got out of the labyrinth, there was an uproar again.

Floria’s face was swollen, and when she took off her cloak, her dress was torn, and traces of rope remained on her exposed skin.

Some of the servants grabbed the back of his neck and fainted, and Lyon drew out his sword in rage.

Floria’s long persuasion continued again, and Lyon took a deep breath and put the sword in.

“You must go to the nearest city as soon as possible for treatment.”

Lyon persuaded, but Floria shook her head with only one potion applied.

“I’ll get some air and come.”

“miss…!!”

“Just a minute.”

Reluctant Floria walked up the ridge of the mountain range and looked around.

Since it was a mountain with few trees, the bottom of the ridge was clearly visible.

Feeling the fresh breeze blowing, Floria spread her arms wide.

“Really… I found my freedom.”

Floria trembled lightly at the ecstasy that ran through her body.

Floria has never felt the pleasure of the wind properly.

Because he shared his emotions with the spirits that were the source of the wind, his sense of the wind was dulled.

Not now

I could fully feel the touch of the wind brushing my hair.

Rey, who followed Floria, asked.

“Are you going to return to the estate, or are you going to the Imperial Horse Tower?”

“what does it mean?”

“Didn’t you mean to go to the tower to solve the problem with the spirits?”

“Ahaha.”

Floria shook her head with a cheerful smile.

“It’s true, but the imperial horse tower is the best place to make a connection. You don’t have to miss the opportunity, right?”

Floria looked up at the sky and continued.

“Your girl, if I’m not around, people will look down on you and ignore you. How many people really know the power of the Count of Phillips?”

The wind spirit that descended from the sky, Phoenix, penetrated like a barrier between Floria and Rey.

Fenrir, with Alesia on his back, was running hard at the bottom of the ridge.

“Woah aa faster than I thought…!!”

Fenrir’s speed, handling the wind, was faster than words.

Alesia, who arrived at Floria’s side in no time, staggered and got off Fenrir.

Alessiga, unable to balance for a moment, grabbed Rey’s arm.

“Rei is my knight! I will not forgive you, even Floria, if you covet it!”

“Uh-huh…”

Floria covered her mouth with a new fan, repeating what she had once said.

“Alesia, is Iza really your knight?”

“It is true!”

“You caught a man well.”

Floria, who gave me a fresh smile, stepped forward with a fluttering heart.

“Let’s go downstairs. Lyon’s eyes are getting more and more scared.”

Lyon, who had followed to escort Floria, was raising his mana with his hand on the hilt of his sword.

Floria went back to Lyon and stood up again because it seemed like they would have another fight if they got along better.

It was a measure to protect Lyon, not Ray.

“I’m looking forward to it. What kind of place will the tower be?”

The pure curiosity that was lost 10 years ago springs up again.

Seeing Floria smiling brightly, Lyon released her strength from her grasp.

It was the first time Lyon saw a young lady smiling so naturally today.

Lyon then realized that the problem that had really bothered Floria had been resolved .
