"Kyaaaa~"
I smile a little as I watch Rachel running around the training room with her new contracted spirit chasing after her. It turns out, she has a high affinity for the Green Spirit. Lucky for her, there are tons of them around her.
I look around the area as my eyes shine because of the spell I cast.
As I expected. I can learn spells from reading the book from another class. I acquired this spell by reading a book for the Onmyouji class. In-ga, it is a spell that lets the player see any magic-based traps in the area. Sadly, it can only see through the trap equal to or under level twenty.
Here? I can see spirits alongside the ability to see magic-based traps hidden in the area.
When Tiamat and that elf woman say there are a lot of spirits in Shadowfall City, I thought there were like thirty or fifty spirits in a single city. However, it is not the case. There are hundreds of them. The entire city is covered by green lights. The Green Spirits are everywhere, and they are giggling around .
Speaking of , the spirits are fighting to stay close to . The one that is always next to is one of the strongest Green Spirits. At least that is what Tiamat said about the spirit sitting on my shoulder.
According to her, this Nature Spirit will beco the Queen Nature Spirit if the previous one loses in battle. According to Tiamat, only the strongest spirit can retain the title of Royalty, and a tournant will happen every one hundred years.
The next tournant is scheduled to take place in ten years, and according to Tiamat, the spirit on my shoulder is a Queen Candidate and has a high chance of winning the tournant.
And all she is doing is to make sure to stay close to . Tiamat talks to the spirit, and according to her, this spirit is the first one to latch herself to . She has been with since I awakened my Blessing. That is why she is this strong.
"Big brother! Look!"
I snap from my thoughts and see Rachel create an apple tree underneath her. I chuckle a little as she puts her hands on her hips and gives a proud grin.
"Soon I will be as strong as you! Soon I will create the biggest tree!"
"Of course! I will be waiting for you to make one."
"En! Just you wait!"
And she jumped down the tree, but before she could land on the hard surface, I moved my hand and caught her with the wind. She laughs and continues to play around. I really need to teach her to be careful. I am not always there to catch her when she does sothing reckless.
I shake my head and turn around to see Tiamat looking at with a smile. She beca a permanent resident in our mansion. When my mother says that she will beco my grandmother, she is not kidding.
"Do you want to make a contract as well, Gwyn?"
At the ntion of the contract, the spirit sitting on my shoulder perks up and rubs her head into my mind. I chuckle a little and say.
"Yes. I think it is ti for to make a contract with this little one."
After I say that, she starts to dance while the other spirits who gather around celebrate her soon-to-be promotion.
"Good. Co on. Stand in the middle of the magic circle. Let’s start the ritual. As for you..." She looks at the spirit on my shoulder, "Stand on the opposite circle. He wants to directly make a contract with you, after all."
The spirit happily flies and stands in the middle of the magic circle, and I stand on the one in the opposite direction from the spirit. As the two of us are ready, Tiamat taps her right foot to the ground, and the magic circle lights up.
"Gwyn, recite the chant."
"Yes."
I take a deep breath and start the chant.
"As I stand here, I declare that you are my companion! I swear in the na of Tiamat, Mother of Life, and Creator of Dragons, that I shall take care of you! I shall feed you with my mana, and in return, I want you to be my companion! May our bond be only severed by Death!"
I look at the spirit that is now glowing with power and the bond that is forming between us.
"My na is Gwyndolin Alexander Cunningham, and I declare that our Bond is true!"
A green light appears between the two of us, and I can feel sothing connected to my soul. The spirit in front of gasps as our connection settles, and she can fully feel my soul and power from our bond.
"I shall na you Hana. It can an Flower because you are a beautiful flower of nature. However, it can also an Hope and Happiness for I know you are the bringer of Hope and Happiness for my family!"
This is called the Naming Process Ritual. The contractor needs to na their spirit, and the more aningful the na, the more powerful they beco. Hana truly ans those things back in my previous world.
Hana ans "flower" in Japanese, but it also ans "hope" in Kurdish and "happiness" in Arabic.
When you combine all of them, it makes Hana into the Flower of Hope and Happiness.
And it is working. I watch as her form changes. Her plain green body now grows to 1.5 ters tall with the formation of flowers as her clothes. Not only that, I can see a golden flower appear on her head.
Not only that, but her wings have now changed into beautiful, golden, and blue wings with flower patterns on them. Her energy also increases in size three tis and becos denser than before.
When she is done evolving, she looks at her form for a few seconds before her eyes land on . Before I can say sothing, she jumps at and hugs .
"Master!"
I laugh and hug her back, spinning her around. After a few seconds, I put her down and put my hand on her head. She giggles and pushes her head deeper.
"Welco to my family, Hana."
"Hehehe~ I have finally beco part of your family, master!"
I look at Tiamat, who looks at us with a gentle smile.
"Should I make another contract with the rest of the spirits, Grandmother?"
The other spirits perk up and fly around in happiness. Sadly for them, their happiness was short-lived.
"No."
And just like that, they stop flying around and look at Tiamat with a heartbroken expression. Tiamat chuckles a little and continues.
"Let finish, dear. No, not yet. Currently, the bond between Gwyn and Hana is still fresh and needs ti to solidify. If he signs another contract, the previous one will lack a solid foundation and may impact his future contracts."
Ah, so that is the reason. I guess that made sense. You need the cent to harden first before you put more things on top of it.
"For now, go ahead and have so training. You want to test your contract, right?"
I look at Hana and say,
"Let’s go, Hana!"
"Yes, master!"
