Chapter 64

- From the Perspective of a Core Mistaken for a Wolf -

I look at the field.

The things Shuri of Unfairful collected are growing well.

The things gathered at the master's request, edible things from the soil.

I have knowledge of them, but I haven't eaten many of them.

In the first place, we don't eat things from the soil.

This is true for all of us here.

I don't understand why such things were sought after.

However, the master's cooking is delicious.

The meat is so delicious, it's a miracle.

Will these things be delicious too?

I can't help but feel a little excited.

However, the golems outside are quite strong.

When we all went out hunting, we found a monster heading towards our home.

We hurried to chase it, but it was instantly killed by the golem.

I've seen golems that can use magic before, but the master's golems are not just magic.

Even with my eyes, their movements are so fast that their form blurs for a moment.

They use both speed and magic to defeat with just one strike.

It's no wonder the master's golems are so formidable.

I wouldn't want to be their enemy.

We take a break by the pond that formed near our home.

The pond is enchanted to keep the water clean.

The master's magic is always powerful and on a large scale.

The water in the pond is not only clean but also contains pure magical energy.

That's why many creatures that are usually only seen in clear streams or limited areas are swimming here.

Even when our eyes meet, they show no hostility.

They seem to be quite comfortable here.

The golem with the green magic stone creates a healing wind within the barrier.

The wind flows from the house to the surrounding area.

The comfort of it almost makes me drowsy.

!!!

What is this? The master's magic power is surging.

Did something happen?

But, there are no signals from the others who are with the master.

The master's magic power, which is dozens of times stronger than usual, races through the forest.

Invisible magic power, carried by the wind, descends upon the earth, trees, water, and everything that exists there.

I feel the barrier, which I have always sensed, disappearing.

The others seem to have noticed it too and are panicking.

I take a deep breath to check the situation and realize that the golems outside are continuing their usual work.

It's as if nothing has happened.

Golems are directly connected to the master, so they would know if something was wrong.

So, there's no problem?

But, the barrier.

I calm down because the golems show no signs of distress, and I wait for the master's return with my companions.

The master appears as usual, and I checked closely, but there seems to be no problem.

I feel relieved.

The next day, I notice that the barrier has expanded.

The master once said they wanted to expand the barrier, but we all refused, worried that it would put too much strain on the master's body to maintain it.

But, that worry was unnecessary.

I ran along the edge of the barrier, but its size is so vast that I couldn't complete the circuit in one day.

Despite maintaining such a vast barrier, the master looks no different from usual.

They patrol the outside as usual, check the lake water, observe the companions, and inspect the golems.

They are truly the same as always.

Impressive.
