Phillip let out a smirk.

“There’s no way I could do that.”

It was absolutely unbelievable.

What kind of existence is Lua?

A girl who is the successor of the sword castle and will one day become a hero in the war against the demons and lead mankind to victory.

Although he was just a child with a sword in his hand, Philip knew very well that he was destined to shine brighter than anyone else in the world.

However, there was no way Philip could do something that Lua was not yet qualified for.

“What are you talking about? Although I am a fairy who has lived for more than a thousand years, I am not so great that people like you cannot name it.”

Philip tried to add something to the fairy’s answer, but shook his head.

“No, so… Well, that’s it. Let’s try it. Instead, don’t blame me if I fail.”

“I promise.”

The fairy nodded coolly. Philip looked at her suspiciously for a moment, then cleared his throat.

“Keuheum, big.”

There was no particular need for a great ceremony. Lua in the game didn’t do much. It was simply a matter of naming the fairy where it belonged.

Of course, just because the process was easy didn’t mean it was easy.

According to the setting, in order to achieve such a feat related to the spirit of the word, you have to build up something called ‘up’, and Philip thought that the concept of ‘up’ was similar to the ‘karma’ of a certain religion.

However, ‘karma’ in this world does not mean only those of the past.

I don’t know, but it seemed to be calculating by tying up the past, present, and future.

‘What was the line… .’

Philip, who briefly recalled his memories, immediately opened his mouth.

“Because of the qualifications given to me, from this moment on, your name is ‘Yuna’. Do you agree?”

When Philip finished speaking, a smile bloomed on the fairy’s beautiful face. She looked at Philip with eyes full of delight.

Even at this moment, there were fairies all over the world who had been waiting for hundreds or thousands of years for a relationship to come to have a name.

Most of them could not overcome the endless wait and returned to nature, or went crazy very slowly.

Only the chosen fairies were given a name and the possibility of leaping to a higher existence.

“I agree.”

As soon as the fairy agreed, a brilliant light wrapped around her white naked body.

“… Ahhh!”

A voice full of joy erupted from her mouth with a feeling of release close to pleasure. Hearing this, Phillip’s expression darkened.

‘He sounds embarrassing.’

The glow was soon absorbed into the fairy’s body, and she stretched out with a refreshing expression.

“Finally, this moment has come to me. From the moment I met you, I felt it to some extent. If it were you, you could give me a name. To tell you the truth, that little girl could also give me a name. All I wanted was you.”

Philip made a strange expression. The fairy’s words continued.

“I have now become the ruler of all fairies lower than me. Isn’t it amazing? That the two-letter name you gave me has more meaning than the 1,300 years I’ve been through.”

Despite her eloquence, Philip only smiled awkwardly.

“Why is that? Do you think I’ve tricked you? It’s not bad for you either. As long as you are alive, you can always have my help.”

Philip shook his head. In fact, it didn’t matter whether I was lying or not. Because what was important to him was the original purpose.

“No, not that… Something seems wrong.”

“yes? What do you mean?”

The fairy tilted her head. Philip pointed a finger at her as if in trouble.

“Don’t you know what condition you are in?”

Only then did the fairy confirm her condition. It felt like the world had gotten a little lower.

“… what?”

She groped herself. My limbs have become much thinner, and what I have to touch on my chest has shrunk to an unbelievable size.

“My body… Why is this?”

‘What is this?’

Philip looked at the fairy in front of him. The old look of her twenties was gone, and she had become a little girl who looked a little younger than Lua, as if she had no idea what had happened to her.

What I didn’t know was Philip as well.

“I am asking. How the hell did this happen?”

The fairy’s expression became urgent. She asked, glaring at Philip, her eyes filled with anxiety and nervousness.

“I don’t know. And, you promised not to blame me if I failed.”

“… Nonsense.”

The lake fairy reached out and tried to communicate with the lake. Her essence came from the water mist of the lake, and all the water in the lake was her body itself.

He could handle all the water in that vast lake if he wanted to. But after that, he would lose most of his powers.

“this… This… Nonsense… .”

But Lake did not respond. I tried my best, but I couldn’t move even a cup of water. I couldn’t hide in the mist, and I couldn’t handle aquatic plants.

The feeling of helplessness she had only felt a long time ago, when she was a newborn fairy,

The fear that a baby beast that had just emerged from its mother’s belly would feel when it first touched the air took over her in an instant.

“What the hell did you do to me!!!”

The fairy screamed almost madly.

Philip shrugged.

‘What do I know?’

Because Johnny’s condition was very bad, the party had to return to the academy in a hurry.

She consumed a lot of mental energy and couldn’t wake up.

The party, which had six people when it started, increased to eight people when it returned.

Of course, one of them had to be put in a sack and boarded in the luggage compartment, so the children could only check on one new member.

Stefan and Cheryl tilted their heads as they saw the girl with azure hair who suddenly joined them.

“Who is this kid?”

“… Well, let’s say Mia. I think we have to go to the academy together for some reason.”

Philip evaded his answer as he looked at the elf with a distraught expression like a soldier who had lost both his country and his family.

The moment the fairy received its name from Philip, it lost the power to communicate and assimilate with the lake and became almost human.

Phillip tried to calm her down, screaming until she choked, and told her that there was a dragon at Pribia Academy and that if it was a dragon, he might know what happened to her.

The fairy of the lake, now named Yuna, had no choice but to accompany Philip.

“In the end, the instructor and the professor subdued the Manticore?”

Cheryl asked with her eyes shining.

“Ask Johnny when he wakes up later.”

After Felicia silenced Cheryl, she glared at Philip.

‘Last time it was a vampire, but this time it’s a manticore? I don’t know how things like that happen everywhere he goes.’

As soon as she graduated from the academy at the age of 19, she became an instructor and has been teaching for five years this year. The biggest incident that happened during those five years was Philip’s assault on his senior.

However, since Philip became an instructor, a series of accidents have occurred that will happen once every 10 years.

That wasn’t all. Haven’t they already picked up two girls, including Lua? Apart from Lua, the other was a fairy of the lake who had lived for over a thousand years.

“Don’t worry too much. There must be some way.”

“… do not talk to me.”

Seeing a young man in his 20s and a young girl in her early teens who respect each other, the students tilted their heads, but felt a serious atmosphere flow between the two and did not intervene.

‘What should I say to the head professor?’

Felicia felt a throbbing headache and pressed her fingers to her temples.

As soon as Philip returned to the academy, he immediately took the fairy to find Priscilla.

It was the weekend, but fortunately Priscilla, who had no friends, did not go out and was able to quickly find her lying around in the faculty dormitory.

“oh! Philip. suddenly what… … Are you bringing a fairy? You bastard, what have you done?”

Priscilla looked at the girl with azure hair holding Philip’s hand, and gave a look of surprise and disbelief. It had changed from Priscilla to Privia in an instant.

“… Actually, isn’t Priscilla a different personality from Privia-sama? Now it seems like you’re changing even when you’re talking at all?”

Philip threw a silly joke to lighten the atmosphere, but Privia’s reaction was unexpectedly fresh.

“Don’t act like you know everything. if you don’t want to get upset More than that, you’re a face I know, aren’t you the cheeky fairy who lived in ‘Mirage Lake’? For what reason did you come to me in the hands of a human?”

Philip tilted his head at the sight of her hurriedly changing the subject. But that wasn’t what mattered now.

“So that… … .”

When Philip explained the circumstances, Privia, who had heard the whole story, suddenly grabbed her stomach and started laughing.

“ha ha ha! Ha ha ha! The stupid fairy b*tch coveted something that didn’t fit in the fountain and got her belly ripped open. You stupid fairy, did it seem so easy to raise your level? He should have been given a name by a human of a certain level, but he did not dare to ask for a name from the successor of the Moonlight Sword without knowing the subject, so he received the price.”

“What, what do you mean by that?”

The fairy of the lake asked in great bewilderment. Freevia let out the rest of her laughter with tears in her eyes, then caressed the fairy’s small head.

“I lived for 1,300 years in a lake as narrow as that pond, so it’s not surprising that I don’t know the world. It means that the ‘karma’ that this kid will build in just a hundred years is incomparably greater than the years you’ve built up over a thousand years and will build up in the future. It’s like pouring a bucket full of fresh water into the sea.”

“… So, are you saying that my essence belongs to that young man now?”

“You know that. Four years can’t escape until that kid dies. Girl, the target you need to communicate with is not that narrow pond anymore, but that kid.”

Philip, who had been listening to their conversation, scratched the back of his head and looked at Privia.

“I’m sorry, but can you explain it a little simpler? I’m not quite sure what you mean.”

Privia narrowed her brows, then shed a smile again.

“I gave you a good tour, so let me tell you about that much. The act of a human giving a name to a fairy is a kind of covenant. What name did you give that fairy girl?”

“Yuna.”

“okay. You know that the very concept of a name is a social promise, so I won’t explain it. You offered to call that b*tch ‘Yuna’, and she must have agreed. It’s as if I’ve decided to offer you that much help instead of taking your name. But wouldn’t it be possible to say that two objects are equal just because they made a promise to each other?”

“aha.”

Philip seemed to know a little bit about what she was talking about.

From noble mtl dot com

“okay. Do you understand now? Since the mediator of the covenant is the law of causation itself, one side can never suffer unilateral losses. Therefore, that fairy girl has to pay for the loss you will see.”

Privia messed up her hair like a fairy was cute. The fairy in shock did not even think of rebelling.

“In short, this fairy b*tch isn’t helping you one bit with your karma. That’s the weight you carry as the heir to the Moonlight Sword.”

Freevia, who had been playing with the fairy for a while, suddenly said so in a serious voice.

“… Is that so?”

After replying like that, Philip sighed. Privia’s words were difficult even for him who knew the setting to some extent.

It was at this moment that I felt as if I had glimpsed just how much wisdom she possessed.
