Utaha Kasumigaoka and the others all curled their lips into smiles.
That was what she got for choosing the hardest path among all the familiars.
Still, they did not dislike her for it.
After all, she was much more likable than those scheming man-stealers.
"Master, am I really weak?"
Delta looked downcast. "Y-you won't abandon me, will you?"
As far as she was concerned,
strength was what mattered most.
But the strength she had always been so proud of
seemed to count for nothing here.
"How could you think that?"
Lin Luo patted her head and smiled. "You're all my wings."
"So stop worrying about things like that."
"Okay."
The tips of Delta's ears reddened, and she nodded bashfully.
Her confidence rose again.
I...
I absolutely can't disappoint Master.
I need to fight monsters and level up.
Her gaze unconsciously settled on Alpha.
Heh heh.
I can't beat the strong ones.
I'll start with the weaker ones.
Alpha: "..."
Delta, that look in your eyes is awfully rude.
Minerva said, "Master, some more rescued Possessed have arrived. Should we...?"
I have to get Master to finish his work quickly.
Then I can make my move.
"Mm, take me to them."
Lin Luo nodded and got to work.
Soon,
dozens of little ones, freshly washed and sweet-smelling, appeared before him.
He had to admit,
most of the Possessed were elves.
Though they were still young,
every one of them would be a beauty once she grew up.
The only disappointment was that
none of them were characters from the original story.
By the time he finished everything, it was late at night.
Lin Luo returned to his bedroom, casually picked up a book, and began reading.
