Episode 53
Airi held her breath completely and waited.
Then, one maid said indifferently.
“Come on. Do you think that’s Lady Airi? Do you think she’s an owl like you who stays awake at night and sleeps during the day? Our round little lady always lives properly.”
“Well, that’s true.”
S-saved.
But I feel a little guilty…
“Indeed, one’s usual image is important.”
Along with Cookie muttering quietly, with salt-like sweat flowing down her forehead, Airi barely escaped the Main Castle.
‘I can’t go far. My legs already hurt!’
Her chubby and plump feet were crying out in pain.
Fortunately, a location that looked perfect for purification came into Airi’s view.
It was a small flower bed.
Cookie covered his mouth with a moved expression.
“This is my first time seeing land purification. How exciting!”
Leaving Cookie’s excitement behind, Airi magnificently stretched out her hand.
Airi swept her hand over the field.
If someone had seen it, it would just look like playing in the dirt.
But this is a great step by the hero who will save the Northern Region!
‘There’s no person, no, no land that dislikes polite children!’
So Airi bowed transparently in greeting.
‘Cool land sir, I have been waiting for you.’
Demonic energy was deeply rooted in the land that was struggling to endure.
Before she knew it, a Golden Ticket appeared in her hand with a whoosh.
“Now, if you tear that ticket you drew from the gacha, purifying energy will gather in your hands.”
Airi tore the Golden Ticket without hesitation.
For a moment, light flickered faintly from Airi’s fingertips.
Gradually, warm energy spread out.
The moment she gazed at her hands with a trembling heart.
What this righteous hero finally faced was pitch-black darkness.
In an instant, the land spread before Airi’s eyes was different from before.
Land stained black.
A form as if evil energy had grasped the land.
Even so, Airi did not back down.
Right after glaring at the land with all her longing.
The warm energy Airi had barely managed to create bounced off the thick darkness.
Even so, Airi did not give up.
When she took deep breaths earnestly, new light appeared at her fingertips again.
This time it was pure white and intense light.
‘Somehow I feel like a fox riding on a tiger’s back!’
It felt like the land was gradually responding to the light flowing from hero Airi’s hands.
Wriggle, wriggle. Black stain-like remnants of demonic energy flowed out from the ground.
As if trying to push away Airi’s energy.
But Airi did not give up.
She stretched out her hand and grasped the black remnants of demonic energy.
The moment sweat beaded on her forehead.
The energy of life began to rise faintly from the land.
Small signs of life settled again in the barren earth.
Grass began to grow little by little.
A gentle breeze blew against her cheeks.
Finally, Airi opened her eyes wide.
“Wow, it worked!”
“As expected, you’re a genius. There’s not even a handful of demonic energy left!”
Airi and Cookie faced each other and jumped up and down.
“B-but.”
“Yeah?”
“Wasn’t too little land purified?”
Cold sweat trickled down from Airi’s forehead.
Airi stared at the land that clearly emanated clean energy.
At best, it was the size of Airi’s palm.
Even if dug out well, it would barely fill one small flowerpot.
‘Could a Summoned Beast egg fit in here?’
It seems like it might be close?
But right then.
A light green sprout emerged from the palm-sized land and grew instantly…
“Th-this is grass!”
Airi tilted her head and picked up the grass she was seeing for the first time.
“This is…!”
Cookie’s eyes widened.
Small, round brown hands urgently plucked the grass.
Watching Cookie silently fidget with the grass with round eyes, Airi was puzzled.
“Why are you like that?”
“Th-th-this grass is!”
Cookie took a big breath, then continued speaking with sparkling eyes.
“This is an herb called Life Spirit Grass!”
“Life Spirit Grass?”
“You know those cowardly guys? It’s an herb that robustly~ restores the stamina of such guys. Well, the Northern Region folks probably don’t need it much.”
“Wow, what does it taste like?”
It’s not going to be something like nasty strawberry flavor, right?
“It has no taste.”
“Hmph.”
“It’ll probably be similar to mugwort?”
“Gasp!”
Like a child with grandmother’s taste buds, Airi’s heart pounded wildly.
‘Since there are no cowardly friends, I’ll have to eat it later myself! Mugwort is the best! I love mugwort!’
On the way back after securely collecting the Life Spirit Grass.
Airi laughed with a “hehehe.”
“I’m going to reveal my power to Elder right away now!”
“That’s right. Now you’re becoming a powerful child!”
“Heok.”
“Oh, that’s right. Wait. Let me leave a note here.”
“Huh?”
Cookie took out an unknown note from his pocket and placed it down with a whoosh.
“What is it?”
“Children are naturally careless. So I, as a summoned being, have no choice but to supplement that.”
Airi tilted her head while listening to Cookie’s muttering.
‘I don’t know what it is, but Cookie must have taken care of it, right?’
With a very happy heart, she even took a walk with Cookie while smelling the fragrant scent of the Life Spirit Grass.
Until this moment, Airi had no idea at all.
That someone had been watching the purification process from above her head!
* * *
The Mage of the Mage Tower, Daspir.
He was an insomniac.
In other words, he was an ordinary Mage Tower mage who lived a life of staying awake at night and sleeping during the day.
Today too, unable to sleep, he was simply looking down from the window.
But then….
‘What, what, what is this.’
The VIP room where he had settled was a place where the Desolate Land was directly visible.
But he saw it.
The spectacular scene of ‘that place’ which had been nothing but desolate suddenly being purified in an instant.
Even the sight of the medicinal herbs that had bloomed on that land suddenly distorting and disappearing.
Even a piece of paper carried by the wind fell to the ground with a thud.
‘What kind of message is this?’
Daspir trembled.
Worried that the paper might blow away in the wind, he hurriedly went down below the window.
He hastily picked up the paper placed in the flower bed and checked it.
And the content that entered his eyes.
[Listen.
I have descended upon this land.
You fools who cling to tools.
Behold.
The mark of purification left by the perfect hero.]
It seemed like a collage made by scrapping each letter from some book.
The classic method that mages used long ago when writing secret messages.
Daspir’s expression became serious after checking the paper.
‘What exactly is this being, could it be….’
Daspir turned on a purification-type magical tool with trembling hands.
The purification-type magical tool moved over a handful of soil as small as a palm.
A mana reading faintly appeared on the magical tool.
‘Mana Level: None’
Daspir’s eyes gradually widened.
