Why are you here!　Sylphid Sickzar!

Well, with all this noise near the school, how could I not come?

　I hold Princess Ferris in my arms and leave while the headmaster and Hendriks talk.

'Ray!　Come on!　We have to stop the blood soon!

It's not over yet!　Later, please!

But!

Get away from me now!

　I'm sorry to say this to Princess Ferris, but it's a strong statement. There are still five other people with magic swords besides Hendrix. We can't be too careful.

''Well, keep your boy there for a bit. I'll take care of these guys.''

　He says and draws the great sword on his back.

'Here we go. Hendrix's boy. You must be prepared.

'd*mn!　You guys killed those noblemen... what?

　Nah!　The next thing I knew, Hendrix's head was flying off.... Too soon. I couldn't see the sword muscle. How can he swing that big sword so quickly?

What!　Mr. Hendriks!　You!

　That's when the other soldiers with magic swords approach. However, the headmaster holds himself up without panicking.

You're late.

　One soldier swings his sword at the headmaster. Quite fast, but apparently slow to the headmaster. And with a swing of the large sword, the soldier was cut in half from the torso, top and bottom.

''d*mn!　Let's attack them all at once!

　The soldiers thought they couldn't do it one by one, and now they begin attacking from all sides. But the headmaster doesn't get intimidated; he blocks the four sword fights with a smile.

　Then I notice one. And then one more person falls down. If you look closely, you can see that their necks and bodies have been cut off.

　Haha, this is the strongest strength in the country? That's a different dimension. Thinking about that.

Ray....

It's okay, Ray. We just need to get stronger.

　Princess Ferris, who was next to me, and Alexia, who was at my side before I knew it, hold my left hand. I seem to have squeezed it tighter before I knew it.

''This is the end!''

What!　Geehee.....

　The next thing I knew, all four of us had been cut down. Strong.

"Gain's boy. Get to the basement while you still can. Merlin's little girl is keeping the others under control. You're safe for now.

Thank you. Mr. Sixthall. Come on, everyone, get over here quickly!

　The Commander of the Konoe Guard thanked the head of the school and began to lead all of the nobles to walk away. If you're watching that.

Ray. Let's just get you fixed up. There's too much blood.

'Yes!　We have to stop the blood soon!

Ray!

Mr. Ray!

My brother!

Master Ray!

　Everyone came over.

''Is there anyone who can use high-level water magic?!''

　Alexia shouts, but it's not so easy to find. Everyone looks away awkwardly. 'Let's just try to stop the bleeding for now.

'Mother. Can I ask you to just stop the bleeding for now?

　When I asked Ellis for help, oh, man. I started to cry.

"You stupid son of a b*tc*!　How dare you!　What are you doing?　There's no one here who can use high level water magic!　You can't swing a spear again!

　When Princess Ferris hears this, she starts to cry. I guess that's what gets through to Helen-san and Phelia and the others. Alexia has a bitter face.

''I'm sorry. It was me, I was the one who selfishly rushed in and stuff.''

'That has nothing to do with it, Princess Ferris. I was about to go then, too. If someone hadn't gone, that girl would have died.

But!

　A voice was heard to cover Princess Ferris, who was still trying to speak.

''Then I'll listen to Sylphid and Fee-chan's wishes.

This is a rare occurrence.

Really?

　The headmaster and Phelia, who were nearby, suddenly raise their voices. Whose voice is this?

What's going on, Phelia?

'Mother!　The water spirit is going to heal your brother's arm!

""Nah!"

　All of us are surprised. That too. I can't believe the spirits are willing to help me with my power.

''In return, I'll get all of Fee-chan's current magic power.

I know!

Then I'll give it to you.

'Oh, you're so clever. Then I'll take half of what you have from Fee-chan and get the rest from Sylphid to pay for the rest. Well then, put your arm around me.''

　When the water spirit said that, the headmaster brought his arm to me. And

"Here we go. Water Magic Maximum Healing!

　Oh!　My arm is pulling me along!　I guess magic is just about anything.

"Squishy~

Phelia!

'It's okay. I just fainted due to consuming too much magic power. Okay then, bye~

　With that, the water spirit disappeared. The headmaster still seemed to have plenty of time to spare.

''Thank you, Headmaster. For bearing most of the magic power.''

What? No big deal. Don't worry about it. I'm just waiting.

　What?　When I was about to ask you something.

　Boom!　

　Ugh!　I was hit in the gut.

EEEEEEN!　I'm sorry!　I'm so sorry!

　Princess Ferris charged at my belly and I started crying again. Her ears are drooping and her tail is listless.

'Don't worry about it so much, my dear. My arms are back to normal.'

'But!　But...

'Come on, please stop crying. You'll ruin your pretty face.

　I'll wipe Princess Ferris' face.

"Wadaji, I decide.

What do you mean?

　I smile and ask him.

'I'm going to be stronger for Ray now. I'll be stronger and stronger so Ray won't have to worry about me!

　He looks at me with determined eyes.

'Then let's be strong together!　I'll do my best, too.

Yeah!

　I knew Princess Ferris had to be smiling. Then he tapped me on the shoulder. I looked over there and saw Alexia.

''It's time for us to move on too. What will the headmaster do?

I'm going to go straight to Merlin's little girl. I've got to stop them.

　Saying that, the headmaster carries a large sword on his shoulder.

Do you want to come too, little man?

Are you sure?　I'd be an encumbrance to you.

What? As long as they don't take hostages like they did before, they should be fine. Just hold the sorcerer in check.

I understand. Mother. I'm off.

Shit!　Please, don't do anything rash.

I understand. Well then, Princess Ferris. I'm sorry, but may I ask you to leave?

Ferris.

What?

You can call me Ferris.　And no honorifics!　Do you understand?

No, but the princess has no such...

Ferris!

No, I mean...

Fe-ri-su!

Well, you know, it's all right, Ferris.

　When I say that.

Good.

　And then he pulled away. His ears stood up briskly and his tail wagged happily. Why is that?

"You're a sinful man too. You're a sinful man, and you keep on dropping girls.

'What?　Are you the genie from earlier?　I thought he was gone...

　I can't see him, but I can hear his voice.

'You look interesting, I'll follow you.'

　Huh?　Will you come with me?　But in those words.

No!　I'm the master spirit!

　Hikarin disagreed.

'But who decided on one spirit per person?'

No, it doesn't matter.

'Then it's good. Well, we just haven't been around before. There's only so many people you can sign up for, and we're just as fickle.'

Ugh, it can't be helped. I will put up with it if it makes me a stronger master. But!　I'm the master's number one spirit!

"All right, sir. Come on, let's make a deal. Give me a name.

　 I'll have to be careful.

Well your name is Marilyn!

　The moment I named her, a pale light shone and a little girl with long blue hair appeared, small enough to ride on my head.

''Well I have a lot to say, but nice to meet you, Lord.''

Nice to meet you, Marilyn.

　People around me look dubiously at me, wondering if I look like I'm talking to one person, but this is how I got my second companion.
