90 # 85 Ikkakuumas contract and flame shrine maiden.txt (1/2)

I came to the Beast Demon Guild. I asked if Nephi-san was there, and she was right. The person at the counter calls me over.

Welcome. Takuto-san. Is today's business about summoning a magic stone and making a contract with that child?

Yes. I also wanted to ask you about your horse's equipment.

I got it. I've got some great equipment. Okay, let's go ahead and get to the summoning room.

Please.

We speak on the way to the summoning room, guided by Nephi.

'I'm amazed that you really feed a white horse,'

It was pretty hard work. I'm pretty proud of myself, and I got to eat all my food.

But that's not all that bad, is it?

Do you know...

'Of course. I'll take the painstaking effort to get the summoned beast I want into the fold. Because this is one of the best moments for us summoners.

I certainly can't seem to deny that I just experienced that moment. Oh, by the way, I forgot about that mysterious being.

''Did you encounter an unidentified mysterious being at the back of the cave?

'Yes. Apparently he didn't like being on the territory, so I decided to do what he said and leave, and he gave me this.

''Flame Demon Stone...I see. That's a good thing I took your advice.

You sound like you know what you're talking about, don't you?

'Yes, sir. But I'm afraid I can't identify the entity that Mr. Tact encountered.

Hmm? So you have a clue, but you can't identify it? What does that mean?

Perhaps Mr. Tact has gone into the Mount Yellow Mountains.

I've never heard of this mountain. Is it a volcano?

Yes, sir. Yes, a volcano that can be seen from the royal castle. This is the mountain where the fox monsters rule.

Hoh. The fox is famous for its nine tails. I don't think that was a nine-tailed fox because he gave me a Fire Demon Stone.

''Fox monsters are highly intelligent and can use a variety of techniques. From what Takuto-san told me, he must have been a very high-ranking fox.

'Well, what would have happened if you'd ignored the advice?'

You've been put out to charcoal.

Right! Oh, that was close. I'm glad I didn't piss you off.

While talking about it, we arrived during the summoning process.

I'm running out of magic stones, so I made a lot of them around here, and I'm ready to go. I immediately make a contract with the liqueur.

''Unicorn Horse, I've made a contract with Liqueur.

The contract was successfully signed and the info was played. The contract is now complete. The number of summoned beasts that can join us is now down to 13.

Next, it's time to summon the magic stone. This time it's a normal demon stone summon, using the fire demon stone I just got!

If I fail, I feel too sorry for that mysterious being... and I execute the magic stone summoning.

The magic stone dances around the flame magic stone and is sucked into the magic circle, but there is no response. Oh no, it failed!

But then the magic circle exploded. What the hell! What is this? This is the first time I've ever done this!

Furthermore, a pillar of fire rises from the magic circle. And as the pillar of fire disappears, and the fire sparks rain down, the girl in the center of the magic circle is again in the center of the magic circle. I'm getting used to this pattern.

However, the race is neither a dragonet nor an elf. The clothes she's coming in are a priestess outfit, and the sparks of fire that are still falling are somewhat mysterious. But her priestess outfit was different from the norm, it was a mini-skirt. This is a habit that I don't intend to show you.

Her hair was white in color. Her hair style is short hair in a ponytail. That's fine, but there are things that stand out more than the hair style. It is a long white tail with white fox ears and fluffy white tail.

Yes, she was a fox serian beast. We just talked about it earlier, so don't get weirdly predictable.

She can't sit still, and her bright red eyes are tinted with fright as I approach. Apparently, this girl seems to be very cautious. It's been a long time since I've had this look in my eyes.

I stop approaching and sit there, waiting for her to talk to me.

In the meantime, I do a status check. It seems that my summoning magic has been leveled up with the summoning just now. I also made a lot of magic stones, so my alchemy had gone up as well.

While I'm checking the status, he approaches me fearfully, observing me. This is a serious case.

And then he summons up the courage to call out to me.

''Oh, um... were you the one who called me out?''

Oh. The Summoner's Tact.

Mr. Tact, what's your name?

I've had time to think about it, so I answer immediately.

'How about a love fire with a love fire (renka)?'

”Love Fire...

'If you don't like it, I'll think of something else. What do you think?

The fox ears and tail wagging. What's the reaction to this?

I think it's a nice name... and I like it.

Yeah. That's good.

That was a move you made when you liked it.

'Um...I don't know if I can be of any help to you...but I'd appreciate it...please, please.'

I'm still scared and nervous. I do want to commend you on a job well done.

The pleasure's mine. It's a pleasure to meet you.

When I stroke his head, his ears and tail jump up in surprise at first, but after a while, his ears turn into droopy ears and his tail wags in time with my nudging. Interesting. Now, let's check Love Fire's status.
