Became a Lazy Confucius at the Academy

32 – Familiar (2)

The blue-haired girl looked at Ruid and asked.

“This, are you signing a contract now?”

“I never said that.”

Ruid mercilessly turned his back.

The Annoyance Radar just rang at its highest level.

I don’t want to be involved in a contract or something.

“Come out of my fox. I’ll trust you that you’ve been safely purified, so I won’t harm you.”

“You liar! You said you were responsible for me for the rest of your life!”

“… When did I?”

“I-I took my virginity and said that…… !”

“Hey, you’re talking about big trouble!”

“Ahhh! Contract please! Please!”

The blue-haired girl sobbed and clung to Ruid by the crotch of his pants.

“If I miss this time, I will have to spend hundreds of years in a lonely, lonely, dark and somber space! Aren’t you pitiful! A heartless person!”

“How wide this world is. There must be someone in charge of you. I do not want to.”

Ruid whimpered and tried to ignore it and go.

‘Why is the little boy so strong… ?’

But she didn’t move because she herself was a 12-year-old.

“I am a useful spirit! I can do it really well! We can wipe out half of humanity, and we can use recovery techniques!”

“… There is something strange in the middle.”

“I can do anything hard! It’s still an active spirit, so please write anything you like! My, please make a contract!”

Ruid said with her face that she was really annoying.

“Hercy, you can do it with Hersy.”

“Louid-nim looks delicious!”

Ruid looked at her spirit with her dead eyes.

“I will report it.”

Her spirit was sweating profusely, she said.

“Manaa… Mana, ma, that’s what I said.”

Hersy, who had been contemplating since earlier, opened her mouth.

“How about Familiar?”

“Familiar?”

“Family is a master-servant contract. It can be easily cut off with the will of the contractor, right? I don’t know what a spirit contract is… I think it’s better than that.”

Ruid stared at the spirit.

“Is that enough?”

The spirit nodded her head with her weeping eyes.

I know it’s a spirit that’s over 500 years old, but it looked a bit pitiful to see her acting like that in the form of a very pure girl.

“Family. I hadn’t thought about making it yet.”

Ruid was surprisingly prudent. Familiars feel like pets in modern times.

But she hasn’t made one yet, for fear of letting her go unattended, due to her nature of being a nuisance.

‘I think it will be fine. It’s a perfect master-servant relationship.’

Ruid asked for confirmation.

“All you need is mana, right?”

A typical familiar contract is as follows.

1. A gives E a certain amount of mana.

2. E promises absolute obedience in return for receiving mana from A.

3. B cannot betray A by any means.

A magic circle containing these contents floated in the air.

Looking at the magic circle, the spirit said bravely, her eyes sparkling.

“You need spirit affinity, not magical power!”

“… Okay?”

“But you also need mana! Because spirits can change mana into spirit power!”

Ruid sighed and added ‘affinity to spirits’ to her contract.

“By the way, do I have affinity with spirits?”

“Huh, yes.”

‘What was that sinister smile before you answered?’

Ruid was very uncomfortable.

But she also drew a magic circle, and since she seemed to be clinging to her crying all the time, she had no choice but to sign a contract as a familiar.

This is something you can quit if you need to.

“Louid Christopher Windsor.”

Ruid looked at her spirit. The spirit spoke loudly.

“The Great Spirit—and.”

I didn’t hear the part saying the name. It was the first language I had ever heard.

“… I propose to sign a contract with the familiar.”

“The Great Spirit of the Stars — accepts a contract offer from Louise Christopher Windsor!”

As I shouted vigorously, the familiar magic circle rotated with a blue light.

“… Uh.”

Ruid touched the area around her heart with her blank eyes.

Just now, about half of the mana was drained in an instant.

It was the first time that such a large amount had escaped with a single spell.

Of course, the cause was the self-proclaimed Great Spirit.

Ruid confirmed that the string of her soul was connected to her spirit, but she couldn’t help but panic.

Just as gravity is proportional to mass.

Because strength is proportional to mana.

‘… Was he really a useful kid?’

It was strong enough to be on a different level from the strength Ruid had imagined.

“Okay!”

The Great Spirit rolled up her small fists and stretched them out towards the sky as if asking when she had cried.

In that state, a light strong enough to obscure her vision enveloped her body, and when she opened her eyes again, she was back in the form of a fox.

“… ….”

And Ruid knew why this spirit had hidden her own name.

It was a fox.

But, it had 9 tails.

“… Nine tailed fox?”

Upon hearing the name, the spirit froze, then clapped wildly in the form of a fox.

[Ah. Thank you for the pretty name. From now on, my name is Miho!]

‘I don’t think I built it… ?’

… Ruid couldn’t shake the feeling that he had caught something.

**

Ruid returned home from her work day.

“See you tomorrow!”

“Yes.”

I wanted to sleep at Delrin’s lake as usual, but I couldn’t.

Because Irene was here today.

Ruid reminded of Irene and warned Miho.

“Don’t talk in front of your sister. Unless you want to be annihilated.”

[Ng.]

“… Did you hear that?”

The fox that was walking alongside looked up at Louis de and nodded her head.

[Only one tail. When humanizing, only at Delrin’s lake. Don’t talk about it when you’re with someone other than Hercy. Right?]

Looking at it all the time, I secretly nagged at it a lot.

Ruid stepped on the lawn of her mansion.

Sometimes she couldn’t believe that the mansion she saw in dramas belonged to her, but it was also true that the more she got used to it, the less impressed she was.

Ruid suddenly thought of Irene. Even though she says she’s an asshole, I don’t particularly hate her.

She doesn’t know what’s inside. It’s true that she has a strange feeling, but she never had anyone in Windsor that she didn’t like.

In particular, Irene is a supernatural power, but she is very gentle towards herself.

But she did have some uncomfortable situations. That was when the two of Amelia and Irene met.

“The successor… Oh, does she want to be an older sister?”

Possession in novels.

Although we know about big events in the future, novels develop narratives centering on the main character.

As a result, I knew very little about Windsor. It doesn’t come out well except for ‘lazy Ruid’ in the work.

Did something unfortunate happen to Windsor Street? Louis always had that in mind.

All I vaguely know is that Amelia has stated that she has no interest in her successor, but-

I don’t know if it’s because of her hard-working personality, but her actions don’t seem that way.

And it seemed that Irene didn’t like it.

Ruid entered her mansion.

“Are you here, young master? … That?”

“A pet fox.”

“… She is a very cute fox. I guess I should have brought one beforehand.”

“I must have really done that.”

Ruid looked around at the fox, who lit her eyes as she looked around her with her complicated feelings.

“What about my older sisters?”

“They are in their respective rooms. You’ll probably be ready to come out soon.”

“Are you going?”

“Yes. She said that Irene-sama couldn’t stay long.”

Shortly after Sherry finished speaking, Irene appeared.

As always, he was wearing a neat uniform.

As I always think, Irene’s uniform design is very progressive. She closely resembles a modern suit.

A white blouse and long pants. And a black coat.

Usually, nobles tend to be sloppy, but Irene’s clothes don’t have any decorations.

Thanks to that, Ruid was also able to use the cheat key, ‘I want to wear clothes similar to my older sister’, so that he could avoid wearing the shabby clothes of a medieval aristocrat.

“Louis, you always go out late at night.”

“It hasn’t fallen off yet.”

Irene came down her stairs, staring at her Louis.

“He is a difficult younger brother.”

Irene leaned over and stroked her Louis de head.

“The youngest is such a troubled younger brother who goes out late at night and doesn’t even come to pick me up.”

“Well, it’s still afternoon.”

Irene smiled brightly.

“Don’t worry. You have already scolded Leah.”

“… Are you listening to me?”

Ruid was dumbfounded.

Irene smiled and nodded her head.

“Yes.”

“I don’t say I’m listening to what I’m just listening to.”

Irene opened her mouth slightly in admiration.

“Ruid is smart.”

“… ….”

Ruid lost her words.

Just in time, Amelia was coming down in a comfortable outfit.

Judging by the subtly hardened expression on her face, it seemed that Irene really said something.

Ruid thought her youngest child’s role was to prevent family discord.

“Ame noona is doing well.”

“Huh?”

“If you scolded Ame noona because of me, then there was no need for that. To be honest, if she came with her eldest sister, she would have gone back to the North a long time ago.”

Anything related to Justin right now, if there had been Irene, not Amelia, no one would have been able to find that existence the next day.

“So?”

Amelia, who was looking at her floor sullenly, listened to Louis and raised her head.

She looked very moved. Irene straightened her hunched back and walked over to Amelia.

“Her sister must have been mistaken.”

“… Oh no. It is true that I did something wrong.”

“If Louis is satisfied, I won’t say much. But remember the last advice I gave you.”

“… Of course.”

“Yes.”

Irene gently stroked Amelia’s head, and she walked back to Louis.

“Are you satisfied?”

“Good job.”

Irene said quietly.

“Then I will go now.”

“Let’s wait a little longer.”

“It’s been a while since I’ve seen you, so I want to stay longer… I have work to do. Come on vacation.”

“Okay.”

Louis shook her hand kindly. Amelia also bowed her back.

Irene walked slowly to the front door.

“Oh, I almost forgot about this.”

Irene took something out of her arms. It was a letter envelope. I gave it to Ruid.

“This?”

“It is a letter of apology from Prince Damon.”

Louise looked at her letter with her cold eyes. Her black envelope was stamped with the red seal of the imperial family.

‘It’s the most useless thing in the world.’

“I heard that His Majesty will grant one wish as an apology for ruining the briefing session.”

Ruid’s eyes widened.

‘It was the most valuable thing in the world.’

“There are things that cannot be bought with money in the imperial family’s treasury… ….”

Irene gave a small tip and smiled.
