I went out of Youko’s room.
“Eh!”
Mai and i were standing outside the room, and their faces were beet red.
D, don’t tell they saw fluffing Youko’s tail in the corridor?
“A, Ahm, Halt-sama….”
“What might it be?”
“We also did our best today!”
‘So please, pat our head, too!’
I’m relieved.
Apparently, they didn’t see bully Youko until she couldn’t stand. They probably saw laying her on the bed, and stroking her head.
Yeah, that must be the case. Yep, it must be.
Patting their heads is not a big deal.
“Miss Mai, Miss i, you did well today.”
With that, I rubbed Mai’s head with my right hand, and i with my left.
“Sigh…”
The two of them closed their eyes. They must have felt good.
It was through my magical power that Mai and i were able to manifest in this world. I already gave them enough mana through their summoning circles for this purpose.
However, the so-called Spirit species continue to absorb the mana of their contractor little by little so they could continue manifesting themselves in this world. This was separate from the mana I ntioned before. The surplus mana that was absorbed might also be considered as the so-called bonus for the spirits’ growth.
In short, Spirits that continually manifested themselves gradually beco stronger.
Also, direct contact increases the mana that was passed on compared to the usual amount. But it had nothing to do with , since my stats were frozen.
I could feel them sucking my mana while I stroked their heads. Well, this is their reward for doing their best, after all.
Both of them told that they fell for my pure mana.
Mai is a Fire Spirit, while i is a Water Spirit. They are attracted to mana that has high purity.
I converted the mana flowing from my right hand into one with the fire attribute. While doing so, I imagined a fla that was perfectly combusted. I did the sa with the left hand, but changed it into the water attribute. I imagined water that had no impurities.
Apparently, the quality of mana would reflect the ones I imagine. Nevertheless, the ability to imagine was important, and spirits happily treated my mana as premium quality.
With that reason, I continued transforming my mana’s quality and transferring it to Mai and i.
“Nnn!?”
“H, Halt-sama!!”
The girls faces flushed.
It looked like it really felt good, so I paid them no heed and continued sending my mana over.
Service, service!
“N, no, please –“
‘M, my body’s hot. Halt-sama’s overflowing inside !’
“N, no more, I can’t –“
‘No, no, no, no! No, please, don’t co any further!’
Mai and i fell towards . I released their heads and caught them. We assud a hugging position, and I continued giving them mana.
I’m covering more surface area, so the mana I transferred also increased.
Taking advantage of the situation, I checked the results of my mana ridian expansion training.
Mana, here I go! I released the innurable mana I stored in my ridians all at once. Each mana was worth 10 points.
“Aaaaahhhhhnnnnn!!!”
Crack!
It sounded as if sothing broke into pieces.
Mai and i beca limp, just like marionettes that had their threads cut, and they slumped in my arms.
It’s alright; they’re still breathing.
But I’m worried about sothing –
Sohow, it felt as if the status of their existence rose.
Mai and i’s aura were at par, or possibly above, that of Ifrit and Undine, the Spirit Kings.
Eh, don’t tell I did that?
The spirits of this world would rise up in status if they accumulate mana beyond a certain level from their summoning contractors.
Mai and i beca high-ranking spirits because of their contract with .
Apparently I made them evolve further.
Originally, a high ranking spirit would beco a spirit king after it cleared the trials set by god, sowhat similar to what humans needed to do to obtain tertiary jobs.
However, they could not undergo the ordeals from god if the four spirit kings were in good health.
The only exception to that rule was to break through its own existence’s shell. In that case, it would not be necessary to clear the tribulations of god, and it would beco one of the spirit kings.
That exception was the current Celestial Spirit King.
I originally heard it from the Old Man himself. He tore through his previous status, and continued to accumulated mana from the stars, until he achieved his current standing as the Celestial Spirit King.
— In short, it seed that I broke through Mai and i’s shell by forcing mana from external sources onto them.
“…….”
Hmm, well, there’s nothing wrong with getting stronger, right? Besides, it was their reward from the start.
“Young ladies, congratulations on advancing to the level of Spirit Kings.”
There was no reply from Mai and i, of course.
I carried both of them under my arms, as I headed towards their room.
They are too light. Is it because they’re spirits taking on the appearance of humans?
I gently lay them on their respective beds. Their condition had already stabilized.
Perhaps, their bodies were in the middle of restructuring after receiving a massive amount of mana.
Regrettably, though, my chao fan for them would have to wait.
They must rest their bodies, and eventually, they will beco new Spirit Kings who can support .
Alright, one more to go, huh.
I started to move towards rdie’s room.
