Enjoy~~!
I learned that slavery existed in this world from my parent's conversations
Soic; they couldn't betray nor defy their masters
It appeared that slaves were considerably expensive to maintain
Moreover, there were also so like maintenance costs attatched– or, rather, food expenses
Although my parents were the so-called 'lords' of the small, rural town, they didn't own any slaves
Well… both ofslaves they enslaved ical creatures
They ole, she even e
Unfortunately, I did not have any talent for true ical creatures
In addition, unless they were created for that purpose, ical creatures couldn't talk
As I thought, I really wanted a beastman slave… or, maybe a demi-human Even a human would be fine
I wanted slaves that absolutely wouldn't betray me
… … … …although, it was definitely not because I'm a so-called lonely person
Anyway, before I bought a slave, I would need beds for them to stay in
Money
I needed money
Naturally, the pocket money that I received frooals
Therefore, I made a plan
◆◆◆
One month had passed since I started to communicate with the spirits
I decided to carry out my plan soon: to hunt wild animals and possibly monsters in the prairie across the mountains
If I was able to borrow the power of the spirits, then perhaps it was also possible for me to hunt monsters [TL2 : Monster Hunter?] (ED2: Does he look like he's swinging a bone sword?!)
Then, by selling the raw e it for a suitable reward
With that money, I could prepare furniture and purchase slaves
I, sos', actually didn't want to go to a town that ar with humans… but it couldn't be helped
Since I lived in a se the monsters and animals that I hunted for money
Furthermore, it would make me stand out
「He was a 10-years-old kid that couldn't use trueeither; how could he hunt?」
Questions like that would be raised
I couldn't say that it was because I used the spirit's power
Though there was the oath withthe nae that I lived in
If it became known that I could see the appearance of the spirits, hear their voices, and borrow their power, I had a hunch that it would only bring misfortune
Therefore, Itown
If there was no one that knew about me, maybe they would believe ic
Ast talented humans, there seemed to be people who could use it before they were even 10-years-old
I didn't have any expectations fro by myself… as usual
I didn't have any friends in the human town either; nobody was concerned with me
It was very convenient when I stealthily snuck out of the town
After I walked to the forest, I jumped and fleith the power of the wind spirits
Just to be sure that no one would see me, I borrowed the sylph's power and invoked 《Cloak of Hidden Figure》
I flew in the sky, and crossed theover the great prairie
Could it perhaps be that this great prairie was a region unexplored by humanity?
I couldn't see the shadow of a single person in the great prairie
Even so, I thought that it was not all that strange It could be said that it was a frontier from the perspective of the rural town Furthermore, no one had came to this place since they couldn't have easily passed through the deep valleys and steep mountains
On the other hand, I passed through the mountains everyday I'e [TL2 : Arubasu→アルバス, have a better nah it was ”Alps”]
A warlike race resided at the bottom of the mountain
As for me, who flew in the sky and passed over the steep e, warlike race
As expected, there were still no signs of hus here Instead, various wild anireat prairie– monster-like animals as well
It ame would do if it was possible to hunt it In this case, the big gae body– the size didn't ive me a lot of money (TL: help please) [TL2 : Help wanted→ (もちろん、ここでいう大物とは、身体のデカさではなく、大金で引き取ってもらえそうなという意味だ。)]
While flying, I continued to look for big garoups of animals
However, rather than aniht out monsters
Thanks to that, I discoveredfor an one hour
I sawfrom their foreheads in the prairie
It was the so-called One Horned Beast, a [Unicorn]
I had, indirectly, listened to my parents talk about the unicorn's horn It seeh prices
I heard that its effect was capable of curing both wounds and illnesses in an instant
When speaking about standard items that appeared in fantasy stories, Unicorn Horns were a common item
This time, I only discovered two unicorns
I thought that they had strayed from the herd
I would hunt them no matter what, anyway
This 《Concealment》 was extremely convenient
It was not only hidingthe sound when I spoke and my odour (ED2: …take a bath, Ash…)
I flew at a low altitude, approaching until the distance froet was only 30 meters
That was because the effective range of《Wind Spirit Arroas 30 meters
If I wanted longer range, I could fire《Salae of 100several spirits of fire into one Salae[火蜥蜴]” which also means salamander][TL2 : He really said ”Gattai”]
Although, I could not use it in that place because flame spirits were not present in abundance
Instead, there were nureat prairie
Earth spirits, on the other hand, had 《Stone Blast》 which had considerable fire power Unfortunately, the range was extremely short
I could probablyup like a stone thrown froht accidentally kill a unicorn
In that situation, the special training I underwent over the last month would be wasted
