The day after the canal was opened. We signed a contract with Dene, Nomos, and Dolly. It's time to go to the labyrinth city and receive my reward.

Maybe the Adventurers' Guild will find out about me and regret what they did. Hmmm...I'm really looking forward to seeing how I'll be greeted.

"Yuta! You look bad. What's wrong?"

"Did I look that bad? No, I'm about to leave for Labyrinth City, and I was thinking about getting back at you for harassing me by calling me a fraud."

Sylphy let out a long sigh.

"I know how you feel, but don't look like you're going to be a bad influence on Sarah and Belle and the others. Keep it to yourself as much as possible.

Seriously? Did I look like I could be a bad influence on the kids? I touch my face, but I don't understand.

"Okay. I'll try not to show it."

If I cause Sarah and Belle and the others to lose their character, I'm going to ...... yeah. I'm sorry.

"Keep it that way. If Belle and the others start smiling crooked smiles, you know what I mean?"

Sylphy looked at me with a smile that almost made me freeze. I don't know what it is, but I know it's dangerous. From now on, I'll have Belle and the others go off somewhere to play if there's any trouble. We mustn't show them anything ugly.

I'll keep that in mind. So, after you go check on the pond, I'll ask Kikka if she wants to sign up with the wind or the earth spirit, and you'll bring her to me?

"Okay. I wonder which one she will choose?

You wouldn't be mad at Kikka for not choosing the wind spirit, would you? ...... It's okay. He said he didn't think much about the lower class spirits until he took care of Belle and the others, so he shouldn't be so obsessed with them. But just in case, I'll follow up.

I don't know. My brother Marco has chosen an earth spirit, so I might do the same.

"That reminds me. If you want to be with your brother, would you be happy if I brought a girl who looks like Uri?"

"I don't know about that, but I think it'll be nice to have Uri and a girl who looks like Uri together. I don't think Sarah and her friends would see it."

Two little Uribo playing with each other. The sight of them is definitely heartwarming.

"Hmmm, yes."

We arrive at the fountain while discussing what kind of spirit would suit Kikka.

"Oh, Dine. How do you like the reservoir? Is there anything wrong with it?"

"Yuta. No problem. It's very nice.

Nice? I just dug a regular hole. ...... Well, if you like it, it's good. I checked the reservoir and found that it is filled with clean water and has excellent transparency. The water was muddy when it came in yesterday, but it looks like it has settled or Dine has cleaned it up.

When I tried to check it, I heard "Kyahahahaha! More water splashed into the fountain and Belle and Rain rushed into the fountain.

"Ah. "Yoo-tah!" "Cue!"

Belle and Rain noticed me, and they jumped up and down and settled down on my chest.

"You two were playing in the canal. Are you having fun?"

It's so much fun. Now that it's bigger, we can play a lot.

Belle and Raine then explain how much fun they are having on the canal with lots of reactions. I don't really know what they are talking about, but I can tell from their level of excitement that they are having a lot of fun.

"Yeah. That's great! Speaking of which, where are Tulu and Tamamo?"

Basically, we always play together, which is rare.

"You know what? I'm going to help you with the woodpeckers.

Belle and Rain spread their hands and fins wide to show off their size. Let's go check on them later to see if they are taking care of the forest.

"Oh yeah. That's good to know. Thank you, Belle. I've got a few more things to do, so go play."

I'm going to go play.

With that, Bell straddled Lane and blasted off down the canal. The canal is quite a long distance, so it would be fun to blast through the canal.

Feeling somewhat satisfied after checking out the reservoir, we parted ways with Dine and went to check out the forest. After having a good time with Tulu and Tamamo who were working hard in the forest, we headed for Sara and the others who were training.

It seems that Uri is now making a number of clay targets and Fuk-chan is destroying them according to Sara's instructions. Now that the zombies are easy to beat, should we go to the nest as soon as Kikka signs the contract?

But I want to go to the labyrinth city soon, so I'll train Kikka today and tomorrow, and go to the labyrinth city the day after tomorrow. I want to improve my rank as an adventurer, and it would be good to accept requests.

"Ah. Master!" "Master!" "Master!" "Master!" "Master!"

Perhaps as a result of my daily efforts to raise my level, Kikka has started calling me Osho-sama. The first time she called me "Oshoshou-sama", I was so excited that I was surprised.

"Good work. Is your training going well?"

"Yes. Fukuchan is getting along well with me, so I can do more things now.

"Master! Yes, that's right. You know, I can now attack at the same time. I tried everything and got along with Uri."

"Wow. That's great. As we get to know each other better, we'll be able to do even more.

""Yes.""

You're very motivated. I can only give them general advice, but these kids are well trained to think about what they can do on their own, so that's great.

It has been less than twenty days since I met them, but they seem to have brightened up a lot. Sara is smiling a lot, and Marco and Kikka are much less cautious now.

Just being able to eat a full meal and sleep is a big difference. But sometimes they cry in the middle of the night. I asked her if it was hard for her to fight or live here, but she said she misses her parents.

I didn't know what to say when Sara smiled at me and said that she was glad she didn't have time to remember them when she was in the slum. I hate how little life experience I have.   

"Master. Is something wrong?"

"No. No, it's nothing. I just think it's great that you're working so hard."

Somehow, he pats Sarah and the others on the head. I took her as an apprentice for the sake of momentum and to get rid of the bad reputation of the genie surgeon, but you can't do things halfway, can you? I have to take good care of them until they can stand on their own.

But since all three of you are so strong, I have a feeling you'll be on your own in no time. They're still good enough to make a living as adventurers. I'll have to be a little stronger myself to stand out as a mentor.

"So, I'm going to make a contract with Kikka's spirit today. Kikka, have you decided whether you want to make a contract with a wind spirit or an earth spirit?"

"Osho-sama. Kikka wants to make a contract with the wind goddess.

Whoa, that's a little unexpected.

"I see. May I ask why you chose the wind spirit?"

"Kikka is going to make the wind strong with her sister because her brother will protect her."

I see. ......? Let's see, you want Marco to take care of the defense, and you want to work with Sara to increase the power of the wind in the attack?

"Hey, Sylphy. If there are two spirits of the wind, does it increase the power of the magic?"

Yes, it is. It depends on the type of magic, but it definitely increases the power.

You mean combined magic. ...... You must have never seen the manga or the anime, but you thought of a great idea. Combination magic tickles my fancy.

"That's a good idea. Sylphy says it will increase the power, so you can make it stronger if you work hard."

"I thought about it a lot with my sister and brother."

Kikka is proudly puffing her chest out. We must have all worked very hard to come up with this. I'm a little sad that she didn't ask me for advice, but I'm sure she did her best, so I'll give her a big pat on the back. We're all hard workers, so we're going to educate them by praising them.

"That's why, Sylphie. Can you bring me the spirit of the wind?"

"Yes, I'll go look for him."

"Please."

Sylphy flies away. What kind of girl is coming this time? I'm looking forward to it. Kikka is also wandering around, as if she is restless. I guess she's worried about the spirit she's going to contract.

**

I'm home."

While I was having lunch, Sylphy came back. On her shoulder is a pea owl. It's not Huku, is it?

"Sylphie, welcome back. Is that the floating spirit of the wind? You're not Fuchu, are you?"

"Yes, since you said you're going to layer magic on top of magic, you want a girl who looks like her. And if it was an earth spirit, I was going to look for one just like Uri, but since it's a wind spirit, I went with one that looks like Fuchu."

I think the combined magic of two bean owls ...... is cute. Fuchu is also concerned about the bean owl that looks just like her, and moves close to her to talk about something. Oh, and Belle and her friends have also intervened. They seem to be having a good time, so there seems to be no problem.

"Kikka! Sylphy has brought a little owl that looks just like Huku-chan. After we finish eating and you decide on a name, we'll make a contract.

Kikka nodded her head. Then Kikka eats her meal with a blank look on her face. Normally she would be seriously thinking about her meal, but her mind seems to be on the name.

Kikka is eating her meal.

"Kikka. Have you decided on a name?"

"Mame-chan or Lowe-chan."

I'm not sure if it's Mame-chan or Rou-chan, since ...... Mame is a bean owl and Sara is a fuku-chan. ...... Uri also took his name from Uribo, and everyone thinks of simple names.

"Hmmm.... I'm going to name her Mame-chan."

Mame-chan. It sounds kind of doggy-like, but it's another world, so I guess it doesn't matter. 

Sylphie. Please put her in front of Kikka.

Sylphy brings the pea owl to Kikka.

"Kikka. Give it a name."

"Yeah. Mame. Is it okay if I call you Mame?

Mame flaps her wings and nods her head. We have a deal.

"Kikka. We have a deal. I know you've been watching Sara and Marco, so I want you to talk a lot and get to know each other."

"I will talk a lot with Mame-chan and get along well with her."

Kikka responds with a serious face. Mame is nodding along with me, so I know it's going to be okay. Now Sara. Marco. Marco. Kikka and I can now work together to raise the level. I'm looking forward to the future.
