I Was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace

Chapter 1273 - Ten-Tailed Fox ②

Crouching in front of the fallen fox, Isis-san spoke with a serious expression on her face.

[……Kaito’s magic power…… has great adaptability…… That’s why…… Mixing Kaito’s magic power and mine…… we will remake its magic structure.]

[I see…… Errr, what do I do?]

[……I want Kaito to hold my hand…… and lend me your magic power…… We will definitely…… help this child.]

How should I say this…… I can really feel Isis-san’s growth…… or rather, she has become stronger. Not in strength, but in heart…… Isis-san’s voice was strong enough to convince me that she would be able to save this fox.

Nodding to Isis-san’s words, I crouched down next to her and held her hand. Thereupon, Isis-san held her hand over the fox, and I felt something leaving my body as the fox shone with a strong glow.

[Guhh……]

[……Kaito…… are you okay?]

[I’m alright. If I feel like my magic power is about to diminish, I can just eat a Fruit of the World Tree to recover, so feel free to continue.]

[……Unnn…… Thanks…… Kaito being here with me…… feels reassuring.]

I have a small amount of magic power, so even a small amount of magic power for Isis-san is a significant amount of magic power for me. But it isn’t a problem, since I can just recover my magic power with Fruits of the World Tree. I feel tired and fatigued with the rapid loss of magic power, but that’s just something trivial.

[……Isis-san, why did this happen to this child?]

[……It doesn’t have an ordinary magic structure…… However, her magic structure is designed…… to take in an unlimited amount of magic power from the atmosphere…… even if the amount crosses her limits…… Just like…… a container with a broken lid.]

[And so, you’re saying that as a result of endlessly taking in magic power, the excess magic power was about to burst out of her body?]

[……Rather…… before I interfered with her magic structure…… her original magic power itself is too large…… and now that I did…… it’s not surprising…… that its body would have collapsed long before that…… Maybe, this child…… She had the innate flair for suppressing a vast amount of magic power…… but the magic power that remained suppressed without being released…… combined with the magic power that was forcibly taken in by its nonsensical magic structure…… It has become uncontrollable.]

[……I see.]

In other words, it’s like how you’re filling up a balloon with air but can’t stop filling it up midway? Perhaps, that innate flair Isis-san mentioned kept her magic power under control for a while, but it reached its limit and it collapsed here……

I think the bad feeling I felt with my Sympathy Magic was me sensing a premonition that her magic power was about to explode.

Having such thoughts in mind, I ate three Fruits of the World Tree when my magic power decreased, and the light that had enveloped the fox subsided…… Its rough breathing also subsided.

[……With this…… it should be alright…… Because we reworked its magic structure…… It isn’t taking in an endless amount of magic power anymore.]

[You did it!]

[……It’s thanks to Kaito…… Thank you.]

[No, no, it’s more because of Isis-san.]

[……Well then…… before this child wakes up…… I’m going to keep my distance.]

[Eh?]

[……Animals and monsters are very sensitive to my magic power of death.]

After saying that and smiling a little sadly, Isis-san stood up and moved about 5 meters away from the fox. This was done in consideration of her magic power of death, and it’s a result of concern for the fox…… Somehow feeling a little sad, I got up and moved next to Isis-san and watched the fox.

After a little while, the fox slowly got up and started restlessly looking around…… I didn’t notice it because it was lying down until now, but with it having many tails, it seemed to be a monster.

Taking a quick count, I saw ten tails…… It’s not nine huh……

As I was thinking about this, the fox noticed us…… and ran up to us, happily wagging its ten tails.

[……Ahh…… You can’t.]

Isis-san flusteredly called out, but contrary to her imagination, the fox didn’t look frightened and ran up to Isis-san and I.

[……A- Arehh? ……It isn’t running away?]

[It doesn’t seem to be scared at all.]

[……I wonder why…… even though monsters are particularly sensitive to magic power……]

Bewildered by the unexpected situation, Isis-san timidly reached out her hand to the fox, and the fox happily rubbed its face against Isis-san’s hand.

[Kyuu!]

[……Cute.]

[Let me see……]

[Kyuuu!]

[Wow, it’s quite affable, isn’t it……]

Standing beside Isis-san, who looked confused but happy, I also crouched down and reached out my hand, to which the fox happily rubbed its body against my hand too.

It’s really acting like a spoiled child, making it look very cute.

While I was relaxing at the sight of such a cute fox, I heard Alice’s confused voice from behind me.

[……Ten tails…… a silvery white fur…… a nonsensical magic structure that belies its enormous magic power…… Oi, oi, is this for real…… Eh? Ten tails? This thing is suppressing that much magic power without running out of control? Ahahaha…… My head is starting to hurt.]

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [……Is it done yet?]

? ? ? : [It’ll be over in a little while (The seriousness, that is).]

Serious-senpai : [Alright.]
