Apparently, the prize exchange is like choosing from a list.

Let's look at the contribution points first. It's a point zap! Come on, man!

I was on a roll, but as soon as I saw the list, I saw the item at the top and froze.

Capsule 100,000 pts.

This is... this is... obviously a request to use it, right? Capsules... what? You mean like the old messy mess? Is there a hit or miss? If it's an outlier, you're going to be pissed.

Here's the item underneath it.

Dragon's Egg 100,000 pts.

What the hell is a capsule worth as much as a dragon egg?

Anyway, if you can get a dragon, it's a dragon egg. But this dragon egg was only for fierce beast users and couldn't be obtained.

On the contrary, the capsule was for summoners only. I feel like I'm being told incessantly to exchange them.

Anyway, let's check the other stuff. A quick check shows that contribution points include materials, drop items, and tools for production. These were particularly high.

Magical Flame Furnace 80,000 pts.
Stone Kiln 60,000 pts.
Magic loom 60,000 pts.
Magical cultivator 60,000 pts.
Magic Chainsaw 60,000 pts.

I thought it was something that Ruin and the others would want. I'd like to trade the Demonic Flame Melting Furnace for Hephaistos, but it's too expensive.

The other expensive ones are demonic ice stones, sapphires, and icy stones. The guardian ice spirit drop material is expensive. There were other things I hadn't seen before... I don't think I'd want King Gorilla's fur and barbell. I'm curious to see how they work, though.

What I want is still the ice magic stone and various magic stones. There's an ice stone, so there's also a way to exchange the ice stone and make a rare ice magic stone. But here's an emergency. I checked my inventory and found no ice-producing stones.

I checked my inventory and found no ice-producing stone.　What's that?　It should have been there by the end!　...Oh.

So it should have been until the end. Then the only thing I can think of is Despena on his final return to death. But let's remember that the floating island despena was supposed to be a raft.

What happened to the raft in the boss fight? It was smashed when Astaroth and his crew arrived at the floating island. Naturally, there is no sign of the raft in the inventory.

'You lost the icy stone to Despena at the last minute...'

I wasn't expecting that... quite a bit of damage is coming...

"Tact?　Are you okay?

Lilly and the others look worried. It's no good. I don't have enough training to let Lily and the others look at me like that.

'Oh. It's okay. As long as we get the ice demon stone, we won't have any problems, right?

Yes! It can fail, and as long as you get the ice magic stone here, you're good to go!

The points are 10000 pts. this is all I can do. The other high magic stones are light and dark, both 5000. I'm worried about them.

If I buy the capsules, the capsules, ice magical stone, light magical stone, and dark magical stone will be 120,000, so there's only 13,600 left. There's only 13,600 left, what do we have left?

I was looking into it and found a good one. Intermediate blast furnace 3000, intermediate blacksmith's hammer 3000.

"Hephaistos. What do you think of the Intermediate Furnace and the Intermediate Blacksmith's Hammer I found?

'What?　I...that's...I'd like to have that, but I'm sure it would make a good weapon, and it would increase our success rate. But,

Okay. You're right.

That's very forceful... are you sure about this?

It's a win-win for us. It's not a problem.

So that's the decision. I have 7600 pts left, we'll figure out the rest at school. It seems we have a week to exchange them, so there's no need to rush to exchange them.

But the mysterious capsule I'm wondering about is the only exception. I'll pick it out immediately. What is it?

I select a capsule, perform the exchange, and a capsule containing a person from a sci-fi movie appears in front of me.

What...the capsule is that way!

Tact?　What's this?

Lily asks me, but I can only answer that it's a capsule.

It's not going to open up out of nowhere and jump out at me like an alien or something, is it? As I approached at maximum alert, I heard a sound from the capsule.

We have detected a human summoner. Please register as a master.

Ma, master registration? What do you want me to do?

"Please touch the panel on the right with your hand.

"The right panel... this one?　Touch this with your hand.

I touched the panel with my hand and the machine pinned my arm to it.

'Oi!　Wait, wait, what the hell is this?

I'm going to run a blood sample for master registration.

A blood draw?　Wait, wait!　Don't ask me that.

Ahhh... this feeling of being sucked out of the blood...

master registration complete

My arms are released and I fall down.

'Dude, are you okay?　Mr. Takt!

Oh, oh, my God...

I mean, he's fine, but... he's fine! This is too much! It's a trap! This is harassment! Ask for advance briefing and permission!

While I was gripped by anger, things were going on.

'Path to master established... done. ''Begin magic charge... done. All systems are now operational. Ex Machina activated!

The capsule is opened and the girl with short purple hair and short hair... I'm not surprised anymore... but then again, she's not wearing any clothes! No, there are barely any mechanical parts to hide in places that should be hidden, but it's bad enough that it's not a problem, like Setia! I'm sure of it! This game is not an all-ages game!

Tact... why isn't she wearing any clothes?

Lily asks me why, and I wonder why! I want to know! A reward from management? ...Oh no, I'm getting confused.

'Ha!　Mr. Taft!　Don't look!

Aeon, I think it's too late to keep your eyes down, don't you?

Would the master like some clothes?

Ex Machina asks. Does the Master mean me?

'Oh...oh. Can't you do something about it?

I want you to visualize the clothes.

Dressed? I don't know what it was, but what came to mind on the spur of the moment was our uniform.

"Master image confirmed. Analysis complete. Executing conversion.

Yeah? Retrofit? I don't know what happened because Ion is hiding his eyes. Then Ion took his hand away and there was a girl in our uniform in front of me.

「「「「 or a cute outfit...」」」」

Oh, I have a bad feeling about this. This trend is not good!

''Uh... by Master, you mean me?''

A stare from behind! Don't turn around!

'Yes, sir. I am verifying the path to the master. If you would please enter my name into the capsule.

Entering the name of the individual, it's all very mechanical. So, what are we going to do with the name? Come to think of it, there was a way to call the alphabet that I like to call it. That would be no problem for a girl's name.

When I input the name, I hear a voice from the capsule.

The capsule says, "Individual name input confirmed. The individual name is Ix. Formal agreement with Master is complete.

Then the info plays.

'Ex Machina, we have signed a contract with Ix.
'I've signed a contract with five female sub-race members other than synthetic summonses. I have earned the title 'Pedophile'.

I don't want it! Such a title! But when you see the effects, you change your mind.

The title "Pedophile
Effect: Increased chance of summoning a female sub-race.
A title awarded to anyone who joins five female subraces outside of a composite summoning.

...Regardless of the name of the title, it's nice to know that it's easier to get a female sub-race. And this brings the number of summoned beasts I can summon to 9.

I don't feel like I can only summon girls without a title, but... no, I'm a guy too, so I'm more than happy to have girls, but it's tougher when there are more... like eye attacks.

For now, let's take a look at Ix's stats.

Name Ix, Ex Machina Lv 1.

Vitality 15
Magical power 15
Strength 15
Defensive Strength 15
Agility 15
Dexterity value 15
