“Janey!”
A high-speed accident that occurred spontaneously.
I saw Janey with her eyes wide open, slowly falling to the side. Since Janey can control the wind with her supernatural ability, I naturally assumed that she would disperse the sudden strong wind.
Because of that, I couldn’t react right away when Janey stumbled.
Janey has already completely lost her balance and falls next to a tree branch.
Without hesitation, I ran to where she was standing, kicked off the tree branch, and jumped down.
bang!!
“Piyaaa!!”
The chick on my back screamed, but all my attention was focused on Janey.
When gravity combined with the force of my kicking off the tree branch, I was able to get to Janey faster than she could fall.
Wow!
I hugged Janey’s waist as she was falling. Thanks to that, the chick I was carrying fell off me, but I didn’t care.
‘Once I caught it, what should I do?’
With her eyes wide open, she was unable to say anything as she felt like her body was falling.
I don’t know, but if Janey didn’t use her supernatural ability and correct her posture, there was a risk that somewhere on her flaccid body would get hurt due to the inertia of falling. I would try my best to not shock her, but I wasn’t sure if I could nullify it at all.
‘I can’t help it. First, put Janey on my arm… ‘
Just as I was thinking that, I heard Maria’s voice. The voice was fast enough to be heard clearly even while using high-speed thinking.
-master! Unsummon!
‘Cancellation of summons… ? ah!’
After hearing Maria’s words, I immediately used the ‘Cancel Summoning’ skill. Then, a magic circle was created in the air and instantly engulfed Janey.
Now she’s safe until I summon her again.
I can’t believe I couldn’t even think of such a simple method. It seems that Janey was suddenly in danger and her head wasn’t working properly.
‘Nice Maria!’
-But what about the master!
Maria was worried about me. Even though I know that my body is incredibly strong.
-If this continues, the moment you hit the ground, you will receive a shock as strong as getting hit by a truck!
‘don’t worry. ‘It’s not the first time I’ve fallen somewhere.’
-yes… ?
In Tuseonhyeophaengrok, he fell off a cliff countless times in order to learn the external technique, Cheongungbulbyeokgong.
Of course, the height was about 30m at the time, and it fell onto the water… Nowadays, the achievement of Heavenly Palace Fireworks has increased, and since it is not a training situation, you can use this ability to reduce the impact.
Now that Janey was safely de-summoned, I had to find the new beast I had abandoned.
Because it was such an emergency situation, I put it off as a priority, but he was the reason I went through all this trouble.
A chick that couldn’t fly yet was sent crashing down. If I left it alone, I might fall to the ground and die.
‘Where is it?’
He spread his arms out to both sides and spun his body around, spewing out flames. Then, at the end of my view of the sky, a chick appeared.
‘!’
He wasn’t in free fall like me.
-flight… No, it’s gliding.
It was just as Maria said.
It had a plump, round body like a chick and was gently riding the wind.
It wasn’t a flight. Although it had three pairs of wings, their length was extremely short, so they were almost for decoration.
But no matter how much it looks like a chick, does it mean that it is the chick of a divine beast? It appears to have a body structure that is physically incapable of gliding, let alone flight, but somehow it was falling leisurely with wings that seemed pitifully short compared to its body.
He was coming down gliding, incomparably slower than me.
‘… … .’
I was at a loss for words because it was so absurd.
He quietly turned around again, looked at the ground, and flames spewed out from his arms and legs.
Hwaaa!!
Like a reusable rocket returning from space, the speed of its fall gradually decreased as it got closer to the ground.
When I was confident that I wouldn’t get hurt at all even if I fell, I stopped and straightened my posture again.
thud!!
Dust rose up from the dirt floor along with a heavy crash sound.
As soon as I landed on the ground, I summoned Janey again. When she appeared through the magic circle, fortunately, she did not look as stiff from fear as she had when she fell. I wondered if I had calmed down in the space I entered when I canceled the summoning I mentioned last time.
The moment I was about to grab Janey’s shoulder and ask if she was okay, she jumped into my arms. I felt a crushing sensation through my solar plexus. She buried her face in her chest and spoke in a slurred voice.
“Thank you for saving me.”
“Take the obvious… I said I would protect you.”
Although he signed a contract as a summon, it was purely to get Janey out of the ruined kingdom. I had no intention of treating my woman like a real summon.
Among the cartoons I watched when I was young, there was one in which creatures called summoned creatures were friends and made them fight with each other. Based on the setting, I heard that they were fighting because they wanted to, but when I think about it again, I think there was an element of childlike destruction in treating a friend like a fighting dog.
-Is that important now?
‘Anyway, I have no intention of treating Janey simply as a summon for battle.’
Maria’s remark was lightly dismissed.
Janey lifted her head and looked up at me and said.
“Still. The moment I fell, you jumped right away to save me. Even though I was surprised, I saw it clearly.”
“… … .”
What I need now is a hug rather than saying that there was a way. I smiled slightly and hugged her.
Flap flutter!
“Byung! Beep beep!”
As they were facing each other like that, the chick that had finished gliding landed nearby. It approached us, wagging its short legs as well as its wings.
And then he let out a loud cry, as if he was questioning why he had jumped off carrying me while he was walking so well.
Roughly translated, ‘Why did you jump on something that has no wings! ‘Hurry and put me back in my nest, human!’ I guess it’s about that much.
-That’s a very detailed interpretation. It’s probably because of my mood.
‘I guess so… ?’
The guild master said that Shinsoo can understand people’s speech, and some can even have conversations. Perhaps because he was still young, he just repeated the squeak.
what… I was also curious about the part where Janey suddenly fell from the tree branch. I felt like I had calmed down and asked her why.
“Why did you suddenly fall earlier? If you have the ability to control wind, you can stop a gust like that.”
In fact, I was able to maintain my balance while carrying that giant chick just by lowering my posture a little. It is normal for Janey, who has no baggage, to endure it more easily.
“Is your body stiff because of your fear of heights?”
“… no. That’s not it.”
Janey shook her head.
“Of course, because of the high position, the movements were stiffer than usual… It wasn’t that easy to lose balance. As Minho said, handling the wind is as natural to me as moving my hands and feet.”
She swallowed for a moment and continued speaking.
“… I couldn’t control the wind that blew at that time. What power… Horsepower, yes, I think it is horse power. It was a wind loaded with magical power. It was a similar feeling to the one I felt when Shinsu walked away from the container house.”
I looked at the chick who was tilting her head again at the word Shinsoo.
It’s magical power… I could feel the magic power from the chick. I could vaguely feel it when I carried it on the branch where the nest was.
‘But that wind was also mixed with magical power?’
This was something I didn’t notice.
My magical ability is high, but since I haven’t used it properly except for a few skills, is my sensitivity a little low? But then how did Janey feel the magic?
I thought that perhaps being in close contact with the chick while carrying the chick on my back was interfering with my senses.
I thought it was simply the magic power of the chick, but listening to Janey’s words, the magic power I felt at that time must have been a mixture of the magic power of the chick and the magic power of the wind.
And that I didn’t notice the difference…
“… That chick said that?”
I said, looking back at the Shinsu cub. If that guy had used some kind of wind-controlling power to push Janey away like he did by gliding, I was thinking of frying some Shinsoo chicken.
For some reason, the chick seemed to flinch when she caught my gaze. Although it wasn’t noticeable due to my chubby body.
“No, I felt the wind that hit me was much stronger than that.”
Fluttering~
“!”
As soon as she finished speaking, a quiet sound of wings was heard.
‘This sound… I think you heard it when Janey fell from the tree branch?’
At the time, I thought it was the sound of a chick flapping behind me, but now that I think about it, its wings were too small to make such a sound.
Sensing something abnormal, he immediately opened his spirits. Then I could feel a familiar force that made my senses tingle.
[human?]
Before I knew it, the mother Shinsu had landed next to her cub and was staring at me with the sharp eyes of a bird of prey.
