I had no problem with holy magic because I had been supporting my friends for a long time.

　However, the power of the curse was quite strong, if not problematic.



　I managed to dissipate it, but he seemed to be a very good user of it.

Since I myself had given him blessings, I had some confidence in the magic I could use to affect him.



　Still, the world is still a big place to ...... take that long to break a spell.



"I knew you would be able to do it, but to be able to exorcise even the curse of the first genie, you're still out of the ordinary."

　Titus says suddenly.



"Do you know about the curse on Shannon?"



"I don't know much about it myself. I've heard from other guilds that they have found several people in similar situations. The common story is that they saw a red sphere, and that it was a summoning spell used by the demons who once ruled this world."



"Mr. Titus, ...... that's what I'm going to tell you in advance."

　Lucky said it was okay, so I did it, but if I had such dubious information, I would have tried it when I knew I could do it more reliably.



"Because if I told you, you wouldn't have done it, right?　In the end, Shannon was saved, so it's all right. Thank you for accepting the guild's offer. Don't let Isaac and the others get the better of you and collect the materials.



"That's all right. We're going to the inn now.



　Isaac and the others have nothing to lose.

　I'm going to give it my all.

　I have to support Shannon.



"I'm a slave and all I have to carry is my gear.

　Shannon really didn't have any luggage.

　All she had was a change of clothes and some equipment.



　She may be a slave, but she's a girl and she wants to dress up.

　She would have to earn her keep.



　Isaac and the others must have a lot of my savings.

　Let's take this opportunity to collect it.



"Okay. Let's go to the inn. Lucky."



　Lucky reads the air and goes inside the sacred beast's ark.

　We can walk him around town, but if we go into the inn right away, we'll get separated.



　Unfortunately, there are no rooms available at the inn, so they decide to sleep in the same room.

　We will sleep in the same tent when we go camping anyway, so it is better for us to get used to it now.



　At the inn, I wanted to do some experiments in the ark of the sacred beast.

"Shannon, I'm going to experiment a bit with my skills now, so you're free to do whatever you want.



"What are you going to do?　I'll do it too!"

　What?　Shannon is such an aggressive girl in a good way, isn't she?



"Oh, ...... there's a skill I have called the Holy Beast's Ark, and inside this bracelet is my follower."



　I looked inside the bracelet's crystal and saw Lucky lying there yawning.

　What's that?　I can't see the orange-antes. Are they in the hut or something?



"It's amazing. Lucky has grown so small. Can Mr. Locke come inside?



"Yes, you can!"



　Shannon's eyes lit up and she pulled my clothes on.

"I want to come in too. I'm so excited.

　Shannon's face is close. I had always thought she was beautiful, but up close, her skin was so smooth and beautiful.



　I want to touch her, but I pull my hand away.

　Watch out. Shannon's skin seems to have a gravitational pull.



　It's worth a try to see if you can get Shannon into the box.

"Okay, Shannon, give me your hand."　

　Shannon blushes a little and puts out her hand.

　She took my hand and in her mind's eye she was in the garden of the sacred beast and in an instant she was inside.



　Shannon was able to get inside safely.

　Lucky and the others can get out on their own, but what about Shannon?

　I'd like to experiment with that.



"This is amazing. This is the inside of a box garden. It's a beautiful place. It's a nice breeze even though you're in a box garden. And it's so warm, I feel like I'm going to fall asleep.



　A small river flows through the box garden, and a pond has formed at the end of it.

　The sound of the chirping water is soothing, just the right amount of nature music.



　The field in the hut was well maintained and plowed, although nothing had been planted yet.

　The orange-antes must have done the work.



　Skybirds were nesting in the fruit trees.

　The area is much larger than when I came here a long time ago.

　I hope there will be more followers in this area.






"Um, ...... Mr. Locke, ...... is that Skybird over there?"



"How did you know? That's the guy that Lucky dropped off a few minutes ago.

　Shannon looks at me with a stern look.



"You know, Mr. Locke? Skybirds are rare birds that you don't see very often. If they knew you had one, you'd be chased around by the nobility and royalty.



"Really?　But if it's a rare species, you're lucky.

　Fenrirs are also a very rare species, although there have been many sightings.

　There must be very few people in this world who have Fenrir as their follower.



"Oh, that's right. Mr. Locke is an extraordinary person. It's beyond the scope of common sense."

　For some reason, he looks like he's given up.

　He must be tired.



--Rock~ I want to eat.

　Lucky says sweetly.

　I had told him I'd feed him a nice meal.



"Yeah, I know. I'm hungry too. Okay!　Let's get cooking. I've asked the orange-antes for demon meat, but where are they?"



----"Oh, they made a dungeon in the basement of the hut.



"Yes?　What dungeon under the hut?"



　I looked inside the hut and saw that the floor was neatly lined with cobblestones, and in the middle of the hut was a staircase leading to the basement.

　Let's see... ...... what's with this out-of-the-ordinary follower? It's beyond my common sense.
