Floating Sanctuary (1)

stigma.

A mark of an evil spirit descending from a cursed bloodline.

It was a curse that weakened the connection with the spirit world, given to the forest fairies.

A fairy with a branded name cannot summon spirits, so it was impossible to properly handle the spirits.

This was a fatal flaw in the society of fairies, which consisted mostly of spirits.

However, ironically, they have the ability to respond to spirits innately than other fairies.

With such a heterogeneous existence, the fairies tended to avoid them, pointing their finger at them as being dirty.

“Perrin. Rendel wants to see you.”

“Ah, I see…”

Perrin was also one of the fairies born with a stigma.

She had a brand engraved on her left hand from birth, and because of that, she was denied any contract with the spirit.

The fairies around her also always despised and discriminated against her.

Perrin was always bright due to her unique personality, but behind her was a dark past.

Tuuk.

Perrin looked at the bucket of water rolling in front of her.

It was an object thrown at her by a fairy who told her to bring water.

Perrin grabbed the bucket of water that was rolling on the floor and tried to approach the fairy who threw it at her.

“Hey, next time, be kinder…”

“Don’t come near me!”

As Perrin, holding the water bottle, drew closer to the fairy, the fairy stepped back and waved her hand towards her.

Perrin had to stop the steps that were about to get closer to the sight of the fairy who had retreated from a distance in an instant.

The fairy looked at the brand on the back of Perrin’s hand with disgust.

It was an expression that he could not tolerate even approaching him.

Even that wasn’t enough, she fired at Perrin in a loud voice.

“Perrin! What are you going to do if your filthy curse is transferred!”

“I do not transfer the stigma…”

“Noisy! How do I know what might happen? Be quiet and get some water!”

Having said that, the fairy immediately turned her back on Perrin and went back to the village.

For Perrin, who was born with a stigma, this kind of treatment was familiar.

Perrin caressed her golden hair with a sullen expression on the face of the fairy who despises her.

It was the golden hair that Perrin’s mother had told her she was beautiful since she was born.

Although there is no one left to care for Perrin’s hair, her hair remained as Perrin’s pride to this day.

Perrin, who was stroking her hair, quickly regained her energy and looked around.

She could see the other fairies spinning around by scooping up water.

“If you don’t pour water quickly, you might get scolded.”

Perrin, holding a bucket of water, started walking busily towards the lake.

Most of the other fairies were already spinning with water.

Even if Perrin went to the lake now, it seemed likely that he would be the last to return.

The fairy who had given her a bottle of water must have deliberately delayed the story.

As always, it is harassment towards Perrin.

However, Perrin, who could not deal with the spirits, had nowhere to go even after leaving this place.

It was a situation where she had no choice but to do the work given to her while enduring the bullying.

“Hurry up, I have to go…”

widely. widely. widely. widely.

In Perrin’s gaze, as she moved forward with light steps, she saw something moving in the distance.

Perrin raised her head and ran forward, looking at something unidentified.

Among the pure white clouds hanging over the sky, a brown cloud was moving.

I saw dark clouds, but brown clouds exist.

For Perrin, it was the first sight he had ever seen.

Facing the brown clouds, a great curiosity began to rise in Perrin’s heart.

“Brown clouds are coming.”

The brown cloud seemed to be moving in this direction and was getting bigger and bigger.

It was a situation that seemed to be able to observe the clouds properly from the direction of the lake she was heading.

Perrin, who was running towards the lake, was running faster than before.

Perrin’s gentle steps, moving through the wind, crossed the forest in an instant.

Maybe it was because he moved at a much faster pace than usual?

Perrin was able to get to the cliff where the lake was located in an instant.

“Uh-huh… It’s going to be late anyway, so it’s okay if we go see it for a while.”

Arriving at the lake, Perrin left the water bottle behind and headed straight for the cliff.

A cool breeze brushed Perrin’s cheeks along with the distant scenery.

In Perrin’s sight, something approaching from afar was visible.

What I thought was just a brown cloud seemed to grow in size as it approached her.

Perrin, facing the true nature of the cloud that appeared in front of her, burst out in tears involuntarily.

“Wow…”

It was an island floating in the sky that flew towards the cliff where Perrin was.

A small island flying from afar lowered its altitude and was approaching Perrin.

Facing the island approaching him, Perrin could recognize at a glance that it was a spirit.

The island, which began to lower its altitude slowly, came down right in front of Perrin.

Perrin’s eyes twinkled as he saw the flying island within reach.

The small island seemed to be spinning slowly while stopped at the edge of the cliff.

“Hey, there… hello!”

– “Soil.”

gulp.

Perrin, who swallowed the saliva, waved at the spirit, and the spirit’s voice was heard in her ear.

The spirit’s voice was something that even the fairy’s ears could not interpret.

However, the ability to respond to the spirits she had was telling what the spirits were thinking.

The spirit in front of Perrin was now grieving.

An old friend who took care of him disappeared and his heart was hurt.

So now, I was flying here and there, trying to relieve the sadness.

“Are you very sad that a loved one has passed away? I understand that too.”

Perrin reached out and gently stroked the soil in front of her.

The spirit’s emotions, which received Perrin’s touch, flowed through the air.

She smiled brightly at the slight tremor from her fingertips.

The spirit seemed to be delighted with Perrin’s stroke.

It was the first time he encountered a spirit that did not refuse Perrin’s touch.

Perrin continued to converse with the spirit, being careful not to offend the spirit being stroked.

“I will comfort you. Don’t be too sad!”

– “Soil.”

It was the first time I met a spirit, but it felt like an old friend.

It was Perrin who thought that the fairies were making a contract with the spirits.

Because the fairies carrying the spirits were always having a good time cherishing them.

Perrin embraced the spirit that welcomed her and took her ear to the lump of dirt.

I wished this time would continue.

Perrin also did not express it normally, but she had the desire to be with the spirit.

“What is your name, Spirit?”

– “Mud, mud.”

“okay! How about ‘Yuto’?”

– “Soil.”

“I’m glad you like it!”

Perrin was happy and gave the spirit a name.

The name she gave to the spirit was ‘Yuto’.

It was a name that was closest to the identity that the spirit had been talking about.

The spirit who received the name shook her body as if she was happy.

In the process, Perrin splashed some dirt, but Perrin didn’t mind and continued stroking Yuto.

Yuto, who was receiving Perrin’s touch, immediately rubbed his cheek and brought out the story.

– “Mud, mud, mud.”

“Are you saying it’s okay to get on top?”

– “Soil.”

It was a story about Yuto, who was happy to receive the name, and offered to ride Perrin to him.

Among the spirits she saw, there were many spirits flying in the sky, but there were very few spirits this large while flying.

How would you feel if you could fly through the sky on a spirit like this?

A flying island and Perrin standing on it.

A story worth seeing in a fairy tale unfolded before her.

Perrin nodded her head fiercely at the spirit’s words and cheered.

“like!”

– “Soil.”

At Yuto’s promise to let him fly, Perrin immediately climbed on top of Yuto.

As she stood on the floating island, Yuto’s soft earthen floor greeted her.

As soon as Yuto was carrying Perrin, he increased his altitude and began to fly at high altitudes.

Perrin had to balance hard not to fall from the top of the flying Yuto.

The flight with Yuto, which started like that, ended only at sunset.

For her, who first became acquainted with the spirit, the idea of fetching water was long forgotten.

* * * * * *

– “Yuto! Run faster!”

– “Soil.”

I smiled as I looked at the screen of my smartphone.

In the screen tracking the appearance of [Buyuto].

[Buyuto] carrying a fairy was excitedly flying through the sky.

The fairy on the top of [Buyuto] was inducing a change of direction while being excited.

From what I heard, it seems that he gave him the name Yuto.

Of course, whether his name became ‘Yuto’ or ‘Buyuto Yuto’ was not important to me.

What was important was the fact that the fairy in front of him was freely moving [Buyuto].

“Is it okay to ride a fairy? Evan didn’t get burned.”

It looked distinctly different from when Evan was feeding him.

For Evan, the guy who only rotated and splashed dirt on his seat, but this time he was flying with people on board.

No, should I call him a fairy rather than a human?

Either way, it was a very absurd sight for me.

It may be because he is a spirit, but he has a very picky personality.

Maybe it should have been given to him from the beginning.

Watching Yuto run high, I couldn’t help thinking about how to deal with it in the future.

“Looking at the situation, it doesn’t seem like he’s going to leave.”

Judging from the general situation, it seemed that Yuto was following the fairy well.

And as long as the fairy is also an NPC, there will be some daily routines.

Read at readwn.com

Most of the NPCs with a set routine tended to return over time.

After the flight with Yuto is over, there is a high possibility that the fairy NPC will also move Yuto to return home.

But looking at his attitude now, even if we parted today, it seemed like he would come back soon.

If you know exactly where the fairy is, you can find the location of Buuto again.

“I can’t manage it properly, so would it be better to leave it alone for a few days?”

It’s a game that doesn’t even have a proper marking system anyway.

If only the location could be checked, it would not be a bad situation to leave it alone for the time being.

The spirits themselves are not the kind that can communicate or control.

If Karma can afford it, there may be a way to control Yuto by turning the fairy into an apostle.

A flying island is like a romance for anyone.

If there was a way to control it, either way had to be considered.

“It’s a pain to watch, but I’ll just go check out the nearby villages.”

Having made my decision, I moved the screen to check the village where the fairies were.

There were not many fairies in the village that existed between the forests.

It wasn’t a bad size for hunting, but there was no merit to sort it out right now.

Once the disposition for the apostles is decided, it would not be bad to send someone here to clean up the fairies at that time.

click.

Zoom out the map screen and take a screenshot.

After confirming where the fairy village was located, I started moving the screen again.

It was to find Yutenia and Evan, who were moving under my orders.

“Where else are they… Ah, here they are.”

I was in a situation where I gave orders to Evan after checking the appearance of Utenia who had almost reached the church.

Read at readwn.com

Maybe it’s because it’s been quite some time since I gave the order?

While moving the screen, I received a command and was able to see the two of them moving.

Evan and Yutenia, both wearing hoodies and carrying heavy luggage, were moving towards somewhere.

However, it was very different from the situation in which Utenia usually moved.

Yutenia and Evan were not riding the carriage for transportation.

– “It’s my first time riding something like this… but it’s not as bad as I thought.”

– “Because Alpha is a great kid.”

The two were traveling on a dark magic beast.

Sitting on Alpha’s head, Yutenia was relaxing while reading a book.

Evan, who stood up a little further away, was looking around while enjoying the wind.

Are you being wary of the gaze of other characters?

Instead of the human road, Utenia was moving on a rugged mountain road.

As a result, numerous trees on the mountain were being destroyed by colliding with Alpha’s body and barrier.

– “When I see magic like this… it makes me want to learn some magic too.”

The barrier-covered Alpha looked like a bulldozer and was navigating through the rugged mountains.

It seems that Euthenia reinforces the barrier every time it cracks, and there was no problem with the barrier collapsing.

Instead, it looked like the forest that was caught up in the speed of the two of them was changing horribly.

In the trajectory that Alpha passed, there were also beasts that were hit by their bodies and rolled on the floor.

As I watched the Alpha rushing in, I had to have a blank face as before.

“Was it possible to use it this way?”

An island with fairies and galloping through the sky like a fighter.

And the dragon of shadow that crosses the earth like a bulldozer.

I looked at the screen while scratching the back of my head, seeing a completely different look from when I first pulled it out.

Should I like it or should I hate it?

I didn’t know how to react.
