A NEET’s Guide to the Parallel World: Healer, the Strongest Cheat? Chapter 99: New Spirits

Hey were here.

I heard Toas voice and slowly opened my eyes, the sun was shining into the carriage through the gaps in the curtain.

Were already here?

Yes, weve arrived.

Leonardo turned around from the steering platform and replied. After that they all stepped out of the carriage into the sun.

For now, why dont we go et up with Patrick and see what hes been up to? Sierra may be back as well.

I asked while stretching.

Yeah, lets do that.

I felt refreshed because Id slept the entire way here, it looked like it was already around noon.

Well then Nito, lets et again.

You didnt want to co with? Were going to see the prince of Razhousen after all.

No, Im sorry. Besides I shouldnt be trying to contact the prince right now.

I see.

Yes, the proper procedures between nations hasnt been finished yet.

Im not familiar with such things.

Well then, Ill see you later in Dams Adren. For now if you could take care of Khalifa for .

Of course, Ill be returning to Beyont.

Thanks.

No need to thank . Well then.

Leonardo bowed then headed back in the direction he had co, it showed how much he was willing to do to cooperate. After that we walked up to the academy entrance and I had to do a double take at the bulletin board.

Extra! Extra! S rank adventurer Nito has cleared the dungeon!

There were several things posted there that said the sa thing. It was probably the work of Francesca.

Theres so much about master!

Nem walked up to the bulletin board.

Francesca probably did this.

Toa began laughing when she saw it.

Its still pretty light since you just cleared it the other day.

You an its going to get worse?

Probably. You cant just gloss over clearing a dungeon like you did with the stuff st Razhousen.

I dont rember glossing over it.

And since lord Nito will be participating in the school competition I think more and more aristocrats and scouts from other countries will be coming.

Scouts? What are they trying to scout for?

Anything is possible. Court mage, personal aide to the king, soone to train the knights and other mages.

I dont want to do any of that though.

Youd be able to play around for the rest of your life if you did. Youd be an aristocrat, youd have a mansion and could have whatever won you wanted there waiting for you.

Im not interested in having a harem.

Its not the title that bothers but who wants to co to another world and just sit around in the sa place?

Why not take this back to the room and make a little morial out if it?

Toa looked mischievous.

Stop, its just a poster. Besides if you want one Im sure Francesca has more.

I really didnt want to but I couldnt outright refuse anything Toa said.

Ok! Lets get one from her.

Toa grinned, I guess if she really wants to we will.

From out of the corner of my eye I saw a wiggling shadow appear from around the school building.

Oi! Not good, not good!

A hoard of students, mostly female with a few males mixed in were heading this direction. They looked like a collection of evil spirits.

Monsters! Its monsters!

Nem extended her claws and faced the hoard.

Thats not monsters Nem! Its sothing much worse, Run!

I grabbed Nem and ran with Sufilia and Toa following after grinning from ear to ear.

This is kind of nice too.

Toa said panting.

What?!

Nothing.

I could hear voices calling out from behind us. Nito! Lord Nito!

Im not Nito!

I tried to lie but no one was listening. It appeared that the won had beco popular as well as we could hear people calling out their nas as well. Is our entire party famous now? Maybe I should co up with a na.

We ran around the school.

I followed Patricks Magic to the training area and found him training there with Sarah. When we saw each other we waved.

Youre still wearing that mask?

I have even more reason not to take it off now.

Well even still, I expected nothing less of you.

Patrick too had already heard about us clearing the dungeon.

It was easy, even if it was a little more troubleso than Id expected.

Well if it was troubleso even for you Im sure it was quite difficult.

h.

Having my past thrown in my face was kind of annoying.

Hows your spirit magic coming along?

Better than before but, I found the magic is a little above what I can tolerate?

Above what you can tolerate?

Nem and Toa were talking to Sarah laughing happily.

Yeah, I told you before didnt I? Spirits appear according to the summoners magic power.

Did you say sothing like that?

I did, in other words Sarah appeared because of your magic power.

I see.

Which is why Im not quite able to handle it.

It seems like I may have overstepped a bit but hes the one that asked for a summon in the first place.

So what are you going to do?

I was waiting for Nito to return but Sarah said she would give another spirit.

Give you a spirit?

Well, she is the spirit queen.

Yeah.

aning shes the queen of the Salamanders.

Yes.

So all the spirits below her do what she says.

Hmm.

It seems like Patrick is going to disolve his contract with Sarah.

So, when are you going to do it?

Right now, thats why we were waiting for you.

Waiting for ? Why were you waiting for ? Cant you just do it?

That unfortunately is not the case.

He explained that when the contract is broken Sarah would automatically return to the spirit world. So first she needs to make a temporary contract with soone and that person seems to be . Fortunately the temporary contract doesnt seem to have as complicated ritual.

Alright then, lets get started. We have to go qualify as well.

At that Sarah ca over to us.

Have you finished talking?

Yeah.

Patrick and Sarah were having a normal conversation, apparently theyd grown closer while I was away.

Are you sure youre ok forming a contract with ?

Yeah, Im not doing it for you anyway. Besides its just a temporary contract so well cancel it afterwards.

I see.

Im not entirely sure how the contract is going to work but Sarah seed fine with it so whatever.

Hold out your hand.

Like this?

I held out my right hand and Sarah grabbed it.

Sarah, what are you doing?

Toa asked.

Were canceling the contract so Im forming a temporary one with him. Dont worry I wont steal him away from you or anything.

Toa turned bright red but didnt say anything.

So, what do we do next?

Sarah bit her own index finger drawing blood.

Patrick, drink this.

Sarah held her hand out towards Patrick.

Can I just lick it?

Yeah, just hurry up.

Ok..

Patrick licked Sarahs finger.

Oh!

A red magic circle appeared at our feet then disappeared.

Alright good.

Is it over?

Yes, now I am your spirit.

Ok, what next.

Im going to asure Patricks Magic power and select the right spirit for him.

Sarah put her hand on Patricks shoulder and another magic circle appeared around him.

Hmm?

I noticed sothing.

Hey, are you just using my magic power without permission?

Of course I am, thats why we signed a contract.

I see, so in otherwords this takes so much magic power that Sarah alone isnt able to do it.

But still, arent you different from before? Your magic power is even more terrifying.

Oh yeah, apparently I was swallowed by the abyss a bit but I ca back.

I see, I really hate your magic power though. It keeps getting smaller and yet larger at the sa ti. Its really distorted.

Isnt that because its the abyss?

Im not talking about the abyss. Im talking about your ntal issue.

ntal issue? ..I feel like Bell had said sothing like that.

Well, the abyss is in the heart so magic power is just a nourishnt. You dont have to worry about it.

Hmm. I see.

Why is she so familiar with the abyss?

Well then, lets do this summoning for Patrick.

Patrick put his right arm on Sarahs left shoulder and the magic circle rose up to scan them both. After a mont a small crackling fire appeared inbetween them. After a mont there was a small explosion and the fire disappeared. In its place was a small Arabian looking girl with brown hair.

Huh? Princess? Where is this place?

It seems that Sarah was not the queen after all but the princess. But more importantly why is there another beautiful female spirit? ..I may have been a little jealous of Patrick.
