“Actually, I was a little nervous when you first said you would take Damon. I’m not taking you with a good heart. “I could see he had a bad feeling about it, so I was worried about whether I could leave it to him.”

Erintina’s concerns are completely understandable.

I firmly believe that spirits exist only among pure and good children.

Since it was the result of my own creation, I needed to accept it humbly.

“Were you worried about that?”

“When I saw that they didn’t like it even if I told them about spirits, I wondered what they were going to do. “Still, I thought you might have to kill Damon, so I trusted you and left it to you.”

To be honest at the time, if I hadn’t entered into an unfair contract through brainwashing, I would have considered killing Damon as one of the ways.

At the very least, it means that Erintina did not intend to raise him with all the affection and pampering he did to Nanir.

“But seeing as he’s grown so well now, I guess I was worried for no reason. “Even though they bickered, they showed affection.”

“Affection?”

Blood!!

It seems like I’ve developed a little affection for Damon, seeing as he’s withdrawn these days.

So I nodded in agreement, but Damon started jumping up and down.

It seemed like he couldn’t agree with Erintina’s words.

-no! This guy always mistreats me!

“I raised him rather well. It’s not easy to raise a puppy this shiny and chubby by feeding it well. Especially since he has a nasty personality, it’s really hard to get him in the mood. “Isn’t this worthy of praise?”

I said to Damon who was saying no, as if I was proud of myself and wanted to die.

Then Damon went wild, pounding the floor with his heavy body.

-When did you make me feel better?

“I don’t have a great personality, so there’s no use treating me like this.”

-This guy is lying. I’ve never been nice to you. That’s heartless!

“Okay, okay. “Stay calm because your hair is flying.”

They say it’s unfair and slap their bodies, but maybe because they’re so big, even if they flap their wings once, the aftereffects are no joke.

Because it was a spirit, its fur didn’t fly like an animal, but it still seemed to fly because of its mood, so he waved it around with his palm and said.

-I’m a spirit? Because hair doesn’t fly?!

“Oh, you know what? “He said he would take me on a flight, but as soon as I came down, he told me to give him food for the amount of time he flew.”

“really?”

“uh. “Is it true that we should regard this guy as a spirit?”

-Be quiet, master! Why are you telling this woman what happened between us!!

“Poout!”

“Look at that. “You’re saying there’s no need to be nice to him?”

As you know, when I brought in Damon, I made it so that Erintina would never get stabbed in the back by a spirit and turn black.

It was a good thing that her bad memories were disappearing, but the only drawback was that Erintina’s severe spirit lover tendencies did not disappear.

So I didn’t stop sharing Damon’s bad side with her from time to time.

Erintina should have known that spirits are not all good.

“Daimon, don’t complain to Suhan and try to be nice to him. Su-han tries hard, but you don’t.”

– Heng! I don’t know!

This time, Erintina couldn’t take Damon’s side, so she took my side, and she changed her size to Form 1 without saying a word, probably because she was a narrow-minded person.

“Ouch! “This look is cute too.”

When Erintina didn’t know what to do with her changed appearance, she became energetic again and pecked the cushion with her beak.

That’s Damon’s own charm.

‘I’m this cute, what are you going to do?’ Is this a gutsy business?

Sometimes, when I behave like that, I get away with it without getting scolded, so it was bound to be a very fatal trick for Erintina.

“Look at how cute he is right when the situation is going against him. “If you’re weak.”

“Isn’t it because you don’t accept aegyo that you’re doing it to me?”

“If you look at me like that once, will you keep doing it? “You only have to make an accident once or twice to be seen as being cute and move on.”

I think they taught me forms 1, 2, and 3 for no reason.

How could he know?

Damon can shrink in size and use it for cuteness.

I was a little embarrassed because this worked for me too.

“Now stop bothering me and go play outside.”

-Why are you trying to send me out? What are you two going to do after sending me away?

“We have to talk about work now.”

-ah! Then, let’s go.

Damon shook off his lingering feelings about being here after hearing Erintina’s words.

I knew that it was inconvenient to fly in number 1, so I changed the appearance to number 2.

Damon’s favorite appearance was number 3, but I was told not to change to number 3 unless it was a dangerous situation or under my order, so the number of appearances he could arbitrarily change was limited to number 2.

Damon changed into the size of an eagle and flew into the sky.

No one even said hello… !

-Give me food right away when you return!

… He left a message telling me to prepare food.

“If someone sees it, they’ll think I left it with food.”

“Phew!”

I remember in the past, when it was that size, it wasn’t that fast.

However, after evolving, the speed in Form 2 became much faster.

It disappeared so quickly that it almost felt like it had disappeared in the blink of an eye.

I can feel that Damon is getting stronger.

“Damon is very fast. It disappeared in an instant. “It’s faster than before, right?”

Erintina must have been disappointed and looked closely at the direction in which Damon had disappeared.

“uh. “It’s much faster.”

“Our Nanir should grow up to be like that.”

“You will raise it well.”

Erintina will be delighted to see Nanir grown up.

‘Because Erintina, whose heart was closed, will be healed by Nanir’s cuteness and beauty.’

The two will become best friends for life.

“Anyway, you said you had something to tell me.”

Now that Damon is out of the room, I thought it would be okay to get to the point, so I spoke to Erintina.

She nods at what I say.

Her expression was gradually becoming more serious, as if it was a serious matter.

It almost felt like they had managed to hide this and just giggled.

“He also said he had something to say about Damon.”

“huh. At first, I didn’t know this was about Damon. But looking at the explanation, it’s very similar to Damon. So I came to see you. “Do you know what Damon’s abilities are?”

Damon’s abilities.

Stealing the life force of others and taking it for yourself.

And lending that power to the contractor causes mental illness.

In the meantime, I didn’t tell Erintina about the negative parts.

‘I don’t know if you know, but Damon secretly likes Erintina… .’

Since I usually act very harshly, I thought it would be better to get comfort from Erintina.

If you push too hard, Damon may become truly crooked.

I took on the role of the whip, and Erintina took on the role of the carrot.

Maybe that’s why Damon was happy to see Erintina and his irritation lessened.

It may be because he feels her sincerity.

Erintina’s love and good heart for the spirit would have melted Damon.

That’s why I couldn’t say anything.

‘Because I wasn’t sure if I could truly call Damon pretty if I knew about the side effects of the contract.’

Of course, since Erintina likes spirits, she might not mind.

But some discomfort will remain.

The damage caused by side effects to me is 0%.

So it wasn’t important enough to be known.

They are blocking it with a great tool called Tempal.

“I’m a contractor, so what if I don’t know my abilities? “Of course I know.”

“Damon talks about his old days. “Maybe that’s not a lie.”

“It’s all true?”

It was something I already knew.

However, Erintina thought that Damon’s words were a bit of bluff and listened carefully.

“huh. “I don’t know if it’s all real, but I think it contained some truth.”

“How did you suddenly get that thought? Or did you even find something?”

“That’s right, I was actually researching Nanir. This is my first time raising a baby spirit, so I wanted to know more about spirits. “At least when I was looking for information I didn’t know, I ended up looking at ancient records often.”

“It’s an ancient record… .”

I don’t know exactly when Damon was doing well.

It must have been a long time ago since there were no contaminated areas and there were almost no monsters.

So I didn’t think there would be any records about Damon.

“Seeing Damon grow today made me more confident. “It’s very similar to the picture drawn there.”

“okay?”

Since his appearance was even depicted, Damon’s past was clearly reflected in it.

“You said you’ve seen a book about Damon before.”

“It did.”

To be exact, it’s not a book but a game, but I remember people talking about it that way at the time.

“Wasn’t there something written there?”

Erintina seemed to be worried about whether she could say this.

“There was nothing special. Let’s talk about what Damon did in the past. Oh, and the contract is that if you use his power, the more you use it, the more side effects will occur?”

I spoke directly to her who was worried.

“You signed a contract even though you knew about it? “You know exactly what the side effects are, right?”

Erintina couldn’t believe it and asked questions.

“Yes, I knew it.”

“Are you crazy? “You signed the contract knowingly?”

“If I don’t do it, you will try to do it. How can you leave that behind?”

“!!!”

“Well, the power he could give was also attractive.”

In fact, I gained a lot from my contract with Damon.

“You’re not serious, right? “Are you kidding me?”

“don’t worry. “I’m not a fool, and I know there are side effects, but there’s no way I would have signed a contract without any safety measures.”

“Is there a safety device?”

“then. of course.”

Erintina was relieved to hear that there was a safety device.

However, I was curious about the safety measures I had put in place, as if I was not able to shake off my worries without lingering thoughts.
