chapter 26

「Gill Stalin . This place should be cleared out of people . Why are you here!」

Knight Commander-san raised his voice in a reproachful manner at the Royal Guard who just entered .

「Get out of the room immediately!」

Now there Knight Commander-san, he might have something important to report, right?

He expressly came to King’s office which was cleared out of people after all .

Despite that, to chase him out without hearing him…… what is it about?

Rather, there should be Knights standing at the door, right?

I wonder how he could enter the room without being stopped by those people?

Or rather, this Oniisan is another hunk~

Nn…… huh……?

I feel something out of place…… from this Oniisan……?

Umm…… this is…… that, right?

「…… Erm…… Spirit-san?」

「「「「《《 Eh!? 》》」」」」

Everyone looked at me with a startle when I muttered .

「Wind, have you told her beforehand?」

《Even though I wanted to surprise her, there’s no way I would do something like that!》

「…… That’s true, isn’t it? You are such guy」

This Spirit-san (temporary) in the royal knight get-up appears to be Luke’s acquaintance .

It’s not like Spirit-san is doing Knight cosplay, right?

I mean, Knight Commander-san knows this Oniisan, so he must be a genuine Knight, right?

…… What does this mean?

「Are you really Spirit-san?」

「That’s right」

This person, he looks absurdly human though……

The quality of the voice that reaches my ears is entirely different from spirit……

「Even though I may appear like this, I live for a longer time than the Wind and Green spirits over here . I’m able to easily pose as a human . However, this is the first time someone has seen through me while I’m pretending to be a human」

Wa~ Then, he really is Spirit-san~

Blonde…… rather, close to yellow hair, huh~

So that means――

「Umm…… are you Spirit-san of lightning?」

「Hee~ you understand that much……」

It seems I got it right .

But, what kind of attribute the spirit is, it’s easy to understand from their appearances, isn’t it?

Green Spirit Hughley has green hair, Spirit of Light Miria has whitish-blond, Luke’s is yellow-green……

At first, when I contracted with Hughley and Miria, I realized that the light they give off matches their attribute .

If we go by that rule, a spirit of fire would be red, a spirit of water blue, a spirit of earth brown, a spirit of darkness black .

After that, after encountering various spirits, I noticed that their hair and color of their eyes generally matches with their attribute .

And, this Knight Spirit-san’s hair is yellow .

Light was a possibility from his appearances, but it’s slightly different from Miria, so I went through my choices again and thought of lightning .

Perhaps, are the judgment criteria I use not a common sense?

Ah, ordinary people don’t see spirits that much!

Then, it would be better for me not to talk about my theory to people that much, right?

Then~……

「…… I somehow felt it?」

「I see . You could somehow pinpoint and get it right……」

Huh?

Right now, I heard incredible sighs from around though!?

It wasn’t just one or two, you know~!?

Moreover, I’m being looked at with exhausted eyes!?

Why, what for!?

《Well, she’s Ria after all……》

Hey, Hughley~!?

What kind of opinion is that!

Father and brothers of mine, why are you nodding in agreement!

《As I thought, Ria is amusing, isn’t she~ I thought this guy should make a contract with Ria too, so I called him over~》

《Oh, Luke . You have done a good job considering it’s you~》

Ahh~ so the reason Luke was grinning when he returned from somewhere was this, huh……

Un, wait a moment!

You called him over with the intention of having him contract with me!?

《He hasn’t decided yet though . Lightning, you said you will decide after taking a look at Ria, what do you think?》

No, seriously wait!
