Volu 2 Chapter 9: Contracting A Spirit

"Po! Po! Po!" Mir kept jumping up and down. Keith laughed, "What do you an you will start tomorrow?" He pinched the little snowball's cheeks. He placed two bowls for Mir and Aria.

"So good!"

"How could sothing be so delicious?"

"I want it every day!"

"I'm happy that you guys like it." Keith smiled. But he slapped his hands together, "Tidal, can you help with sothing." Looking at the spirits' smiles, he almost forgot why he ca here.

"What do you need help with?" Tidal put down his spoon.

"Actually, I ca here to find out how you grow these fruits?" Keith took out the apple from his storage. He couldn't hide the excitent in his voice. That was the thing he needed to figure out.

"Is that all you want?" Tidal tilted his head. Keith nodded, "That's the only thing I want. I've been growing my own vegetables. But it isn't as delicious as the ones you grow."

"Do you have any on you?" Tidal tilted his head. Keith nodded as he took out the onion for him to see. Tidal picked up the onion and looked at it, "I can see you have taken great care of this vegetable."

"You can?" Keith questioned.

"Mmmhmm, I can see from the onion. You tended to your garden so carefully. That's the reason why it's so big." Tidal said with a happy expression. He could see it all, from how Keith watered the plants to removing critters on them.

"But I couldn't make them taste good." Keith sighed. That was the only problem with it. The taste was subpar compared to what Tidal and the other spirits did.

"That's because the land doesn't have enough mana there."

"Mana?" Didn't Kreye ntion sothing about that? Keith rembered asking him about this.

"Mmhmm. The reason why the spirits stay here is that there's an abundance of trees here. There's a lot of rich natural elental mana for us forest spirits to live here."

"...Does that an my garden can't grow vegetables like this?" Keith looked a little dead. Tidal shook his head, "No, there's a way for you to grow it like ours."

"Really!"

"Mmhmm." Tidal smiled, "You need to sign a contract with one of us."

"Sign a contract?"

"Mmhmm. You need a forest spirit to help you grow your vegetables." Tidal explained.

That was the only thing he needed? Keith asked, "Is there one who would contract with ?"

"I know one of us who is excited to go, Fira!" Tidal called out, and Fira looked up with a spoon in her mouth. Tidal turned to Keith, "My granddaughter would be the perfect candidate."

"I get to go out of the village?" Fira questioned.

"Are you ok with that, Fira?" Keith asked.

"Sure! I always wanted to go outside!" Fira was excited! She wanted to go out and have so fun.

"Thank you so much!" Keith bowed his head, "So, do I give blood to you?" Keith rembered what Shiro did to form a contract.

"Mmhmm! too!" Fira took out sothing and pricked her hands, causing blood to flow. A magic circle ford under them for a few seconds before disappearing.

"It's a pleasure to be working with you, Fira!" " too!" Fira nodded as she flew onto Keith's shoulder.

"Please take care of my granddaughter." Tidal bowed his head. Keith did the sa, "Don't worry. I will."

Like that, the group of three left the village. But this ti, they had a new mber with them. Fira had a smile on her face as she sat on Keith's shoulder.

"This is my first ti going this far!"

"Really?" Fira nodded, "Mmhmm! We spirits don't go far from the village. Grandfather was really angry when I tried to travel far away."

Keith continued to talk with Fira as they walked. It didn't take long for them to arrive at the herd.

"Po!" Mir quickly rushed over to his siblings. And when they t, the four quickly ran back to Keith. Inti and the rest stared at Fira. They tilted their heads, wondering who this person was.

"This is Fira. She's a friend of mine." Keith stated. And when he did, Fira ca down from his shoulder. She puffed up her chest and stated,

"Greetings, young ones! My na is Fira. You can call big sister Fira."

"Pff!" Keith let out a chuckle. But the four quickly dashed over to her and started to lick her!

"Hey! Stop it! That tickles!" "They like you." Keith smiled as he saw how Fira was laughing. While they were doing this, he walked over to Shiro.

"So that was why you were so calm about everything." Shiro continued to watch over the others.

"Alright. It's ti for us to head ho!" Keith stated. He turned to Fira, who had Samui slobber over her body.

"Fira, let's go!"
