Chapter 786

Episode 786: Stolen Heirloom (8)

While looking around the audience with a majestic face, she covered her mouth in surprise when she saw Sunbok standing with her arms folded in front of her.

-Soonbok-nim, why are you in a place like this…

-I would have told you not to call me by that name.

– I’m sorry. Then what should I call you…

For a spirit, only the name given by the contractor is all.

After all, there were no other names for Sunbok.

-…done. call it surrender

-Yes… but what happened here…?

When the woman cautiously asked, Ray answered instead.

“I want to ask you to do some work…”

Before she could finish one word, the woman yelled out loud.

-How dare you interfere with the human subject!

With only that roar filled with mana, the receivers were pushed back.

But Ray didn’t blink an eye.

Rather, as if he had expected it, he closed his eyes and looked up at the sky.

“How come the spirits aren’t all cheap.”

-…What?

The woman’s eyes narrowed fiercely.

Soonbok checked the atmosphere.

Even if it’s a fight like this, I’m going to have a good time.

If he made a mistake, he might have to take responsibility by tying up not only this guy, but also himself.

-Yes, man!

Soonbok immediately shouted.

The power and power of Subok, who has risen to the top level of spirits, is by no means small even within the spirit realm.

Some even rumored that he might become the King of Spirits, so his voice made her freeze at once.

– Yes Yes!

-My contractor! Avoid being rude!

-yes!? You mean this human?

Usually, when it comes to high-level spirits, it is common to make a contract with the dragon’s degree of hetzling.

However, the fact that a higher-class spirit had signed a contract with a mere human was a reality that was difficult for her to accept.

– I would have told you to refrain from being rude.

-sorry. But it’s a story that’s hard

to believe.

-That’s not what I meant…

“It’s done. We don’t have time, so let’s do that.”

Ray interrupted the conversation.

Just when the woman was about to shout again.

Sensing the lifeblood flowing from Soonbok, she quietly shut her mouth.

“I want to change this land into a land that is good for elves to live in, how about it? Is it possible?”

-It’s impossible, no… It is.

She felt great humiliation at having to use honorifics for mere humans, but she answered with awareness of submission.

“The reason is?”

– First of all, the soil is poor. Even if it’s just three trees, it’s a miracle that trees grow in a place like this. In addition, if the elves are alive , even

if they use their own strength, they will need a huge amount of mana…

– You’d better look elsewhere.

The higher spirits prepared to leave.

If I stayed any longer, I would only get scolded by Soonbok, and since the person in front of me was awkward, I had no desire to stay.

Leaving behind the awkward honorific, she only greeted Soonbok.

-If the answer is yes, I’ll step back.

As she bowed her head and tried to enter the magic circle, Ray grabbed her tightly.

-to?

The spirit, who was so surprised at the moment, stupidly let out a single voice.

No matter how much he was summoned without a contractor, he was still a high-level spirit.

It was normally impossible to catch the spirit’s body, which could already be called a huge manache, with bare hands.

Whether he knew her feelings or not, Ray said with a calm face.

“Wait a minute. So you’re saying that all you need is mana?”

-Yes…

“That’s it. I’m sorry, but let’s make a contract with me just for today.”

contract?

a day too?

A high-ranking spirit has face, how could he sign a contract with a human for one day!

she slaughtered

– I can’t. no i don’t How can a high-ranking spirit interact with a lower creature…

-So you mean you’re better than me?

-That doesn’t mean that. Doesn’t Sunbok know well what kind of repercussions it will have if a higher level spirit contracts with a human for one day?

When he quickly changed his words, Soonbok also salivated.

It’s definitely not without problems.

contract with humans.

well let’s put that

However, a short-term contract of one day to the position of a senior spirit could be a problem.

‘surely. There’s no way the picky spirit king would overlook that.’

He might even use her as a punishment and send her back to the micro-spirits so that she can build up her strength again.

This time, Soonbok also sided with her.

– I guess that’s going to be difficult.

“Then how about a month?”

– In fact, there is no difference between a month and a day for spirits. In terms of human lifespan… it should be at least ten years.

ten years

Ray was lost in thought.

It is quite tiring to have a few spirits stay.

Even if you just obey, in order to stay here, you have to connect mana knowingly and unknowingly.

‘It wouldn’t matter if I just called it when I needed something.’

Ray decided without thinking too much.

“good. Let’s make it a ten-year contract.”

-Ugh…

Now, there is no place to step out.

-do it. It won’t be too bad for you either.

-What is that…

What the hell does a contract with a human do?

When she risked her life to argue with Soon-bok.

snap-!

Ray grabbed her wrist and forcefully injected mana into it.

“Heh heh. When I think about it, the only thing I get is wrinkles.”

-Kyaaaaaaagh!

She raised her mana and resisted fiercely, but it only brought about self-destruction.

When Mana and Mana met and combined, when he came to his senses, the contract was already halfway through.

There is no turning back now.

It was because if I forcibly resisted now, it would be considered a breach of contract and punishment could fall in the spirit realm.

Crying and having to sign a contract to eat mustard, she entrusted mana with the way it will be.

Then, with a refreshing feeling, I felt the spirit body change.

Woo-woo-!

As if watering the family land, the spirit body was filled with mana in an instant.

When the vessel is full, the spirit changes.

Her bowl, which had just entered a higher spirit level, became more than half full in an instant.

Falling into unconsciousness in the fullness that dwells within herself, she was stunned like an instinct.

– Gorgoa, a senior earth spirit. Now, in a great ceremony, I would like to be bestowed with a name.

Since he already had the experience of submitting, Ray answered without embarrassment.

“That’s a good name. You may continue to use that name.”

-thank you.

As the Gorgoa bowed her head and established the relationship as the last rite of the contract, Soon-bok came to the side with the most unfair face in the world.

-No, why am I Sunbok and this guy is Gorgoa? Doesn’t that make sense?

“Uh huh, it’s a name I chose because it has a meaning.”

Soon-bok confronted him without backing down, saying, “Stop the bullshit.”

-Do you mean horny? What the hell kind of profound meaning is there in obeying? It can’t be like this! Aren’t I stupid for expecting a name like Deokchun or Gyeja!

“Sometimes they fight against their sky-like master, and the highest level of spirits must be very high.”

As he spoke while looking at the distant mountain, Soonbok changed his attitude.

– Doesn’t mean it’s a bad name. If you think about it, isn’t the sound good too? I am proud of myself.

“You also think so, don’t you?”

-yes. But why was it that I was the only one who asked Soonbok…

The answer that followed the question was enough to make Soonbok shut his mouth.

“Gorgoa is a female body.”

There is almost no distinction between male and female spirits.

just an elemental.

The concept of gender was sparse as it was a spirit created by gathering huge mana and will.

Subok stuttered until the end.

-But… that’s just the appearance… There’s no difference between me and him.

This time, Ray shook his head.

Even at a glance, Soonbok boasted a massive and magnificent body that could be compared to that of an ogre.

Even if his name is Soonbok, it has a strong feeling of being scary rather than cute.

Then, what about Gorgoa?

Although he is said to be tall, his body is less than half that of Soonbok.

In addition, his limbs are so delicate that he might collapse if the wind blows, so it is doubtful whether he is eating properly.

Deokchun or Gyeja to her.

“Don’t you think it’s a little too much?”

when you said that.

Soonbok uttered a loud voice like a troll driven away on the verge of death.

It’s probably something like a cry.

So-young, who was watching from behind, frowned, but said something, as if it was hard to bear the feeling of pity.

“It’s a little creepy, but I feel sorry for you.”

While the wild beasts were frightened by the sound, Ray also agreed with So-young’s opinion when Sun-bok’s never-ending struggle became unbearable.

“I guess I was serious. I must apologize.”

No matter how noisy the surroundings were, Gorgoa still didn’t know how to get up.

It was exactly half a day after that when she woke up.

* * *

“Haaaaa.”

Gorgoa opened her eyes, letting out the breath she had been holding.

Even though it exists in the middle world, its body is light.

When I looked around, a human who had now been accepted as a contractor greeted me.

“You finally woke up.”

-Why didn’t you send it back to the spirit realm?

“I don’t know when it will happen. Still, I never thought it would take half a day.”

As the sun was setting, a bonfire was lit in front, and a crude tent was set up between the trees.

“I have no time to rest. I want you to work right now.”

– Speak. Now that I have become your spirit.

“good. Like I said earlier, I’ll ask for a place for the elves to live. I hope the stream is drawn from the top of the mountain range as much as possible, and preferably well-decorated.”

-It’s not difficult, but it will consume a lot of mana. Are you prepared?

You should know that the spirit draws and uses the user’s mana.

I noticed that the contractor was not an ordinary human being, but even so, it would not be easy to change the terrain.

Ray nodded.

-All right. So let’s get started right away.

Gorgoa stood up for the first time since the contract was executed.

When I touched the ground in my hand, I felt a surge of mana that had never existed before.

‘This is…’

Contractor’s mana.

But this amount is absurd.

Isn’t it similar to when you’re moving in the spirit realm?

The Gorgoa, filled with confidence that she could do anything now, poured mana with both hands.

Hard-!

The empty field fluctuates and gradually changes its shape.

Soonbok, who was stuffing firewood into the bonfire, clicked his tongue.

– The number of top-notch spirits may increase sooner or later.
