I quickly studied the surrounding terrain and the traces of the golem familiar, devised a strategy, and then raised the black slime familiar.
“Hey, black dough.”
"Dough? How dare you, this body!"
“I think you’re just as stupid as this guy. Why can’t you melt a single hair on my head?”
"What? Do you really want to die today?"
“Didn’t you come here to kill me? Oh, how kind of you.”
"What?!"
The black slime familiar grumbled and ran more fiercely towards me.
I looked at the guy and chuckled.
I wonder why the familiars are so childish.
The whole conversation was so childish that it gave me goosebumps, but I couldn't help it.
About ten minutes passed as I poured a lot of sand and spun the black slime around in the direction I wanted.
The creature's movements became slower and slower, and then it stopped altogether.
"What, what is it?!"
"What the hell? It's gotten heavier. What should I do now? It's not 'slime,' it's 'sad.'"
"What? Are you making a pun right now?!"
Isn't that obvious? I won.
Instead of answering, I just smiled wickedly.
The slime ate a lot of the golem's stone fragments and turned into a hardened form.
If it were ordinary gravel and sand, it would have dissolved into the black slime, but since it was a familiar's stone, it didn't dissolve and instead hardened.
Tsk tsk.
It was funny to see the black slime groaning in embarrassment while continuously cursing me and the golem familiar.
So why are you teasing your coworker? Yeah? Even if you're just familiars, you should help each other, okay? You should get along.
I approached him, scolding him inwardly, then smiled and lifted my foot.
“Goodbye. I hope you’ll be born a better child in your next life.”
"Kwaaaaaaaah!"
As expected, the ending was a familiar screaming, strangely.
A plume of black smoke rose beneath my feet, signaling the demise of the familiar.
There were four familiars in total.
The crow familiar fell, the golem familiar fell, and the black slime died.
Isn't there one more left?
I turned my head, and my eyes met the large, one-eyed eyeball that had been threatening Carol and Pembe.
The bright red pupils were creepy.
What is that?
As I frowned, the one-eyed familiar let out a strange cry.
"K, kr, krrrrrrrrr!"
“Come on, hurry up. I’m busy.”
I slowly pointed with my finger at the familiar lying on the floor, the golem familiar, and the disappeared slime familiar, and raised my eyebrows.
But then all of a sudden, his big eyes started rolling around, and he started shaking.
Are you scared? It must be scary.
That's true...
“What?”
Before I could even finish my flustered words, tears began to fall from the familiar's eyes, and he soon burst into tears.
"Eeww! Eww! Ewww-!!! Why did I, why did I sign a contract!!! Ewwwwwwww!!!"
“Hey! Did you sign the contract?!”
"I! I don't want to die! What if they send me to fight that crazy person! Aaaah!"
Man, I'm going to turn around.
It's too noisy.
Besides, I can't bring myself to kill a one-eyed familiar who's crying like a child.
It's not like you're trying to attack me right now.
Not knowing what to do, I put my sword back in its sheath and stared at the crying one-eyed creature, when Carol and Pembe ran up to me.
"You're so cool, Princess! I'm falling in love with you again! How could you handle all those familiars so easily?"
"That's right, really. Yvonne, do you really need to cure magical amnesia? You're already strong enough."
I suddenly realized that Pembe was talking to me again as usual.
So I smiled and answered.
"I know. They're strong, but they need to get stronger. The warlocks who sent these guys are too strong. That's why."
"...I see. I thought Yvonne had some kind of evil ambition. Sorry, I misunderstood. Warlocks are often so greedy that they commit many evil acts."
"I'm greedy too. I want to eat well and live comfortably. Just like I do now."
"What kind of greed is that?"
Pembe chuckled in disbelief, so I laughed out loud too.
Pembe doesn't know.
My greatest desire is to preserve the happiness I have now. Having already lived a completely different life, it's a perfect desire for me.
“Your Majesty, what do you mean?”
I was very curious to see if Carol, who couldn't hear Pembe, had caught the conversation.
I reassured Carol that I would explain later, then sighed as I looked at the one-eyed familiar who was still crying.
"I don't want to die, I don't want to die, eww, eww!"
Then, suddenly, I remembered that there was a salt chocolate in the backpack that Carol had roughly packed and brought.
No way.
I quickly took out a piece of salted chocolate, peeled it, and stuffed it into the one-eyed familiar's tiny mouth.
“Eat this and stop crying.”
"Eww. Eww... Eww? Hmm?"
Then the one-eyed familiar opened his eyes wide and stopped crying in an instant.
"Uh?"
“Oh my! Princess, look at that.”
"Huh."
And strangely enough.
The one-eyed eyeball that had been floating around terrifyingly, emitting an evil aura just a moment ago, has disappeared and has transformed into a small, cute one-eyed bird with round, crimson fur!
A cute one-eyed new familiar flew around me.
"It's so delicious! What is that? Can I have some more?!"
I was completely smitten with the guy who was flapping his wings and pleading, so I winked at Carol and quickly brought him some salted chocolate.
“Oh, here it is.”
The familiar, who was eating another delicious salt chocolate, was really cute, just like Pembe.
"What is this? This unbelievable, bizarre, and seemingly familiar situation?!
The two cute, familiar faces conversed with me as I looked confused.
"Yan. You just broke off your original contract with the black magician, right?"
"Huh? Yeah. Really? Did Pembe's original contract end, and you're with this guy?"
"Yeah, that's right."
"I see..."
I think this familiar's name is 'Yan'.
It seems like this kid also came back to this cute appearance after his contract with the black magician was broken.
But Yan, who had finished eating the salt chocolate, came up to me and shouted.
"Yvonne? Right?"
“Huh? Huh? That’s right?”
"Yvonne, can you take me too? My magic may be weaker than Pembe's, but I have wings, so I can be used as a liaison, and I'm incredibly useful! In return, please give me one more chocolate, too!"
"Chocolate?"
"Please~ Huh? I've never tasted anything this delicious before! It's much more enjoyable than flying!"
Yan flew up in a circle and brushed his fur against my cheek affectionately.
Ugh. This one-eyed bird is so cute! My heart is about to burst!
Just then, a small lizard slithered onto my shoe. I wiggled my eyebrows.
“What? You?”
I looked closely to see what it was, and it was the golem familiar that had been shattered by my fist earlier, having eaten the piece of salt chocolate Yan had dropped and transformed into its original lizard form.
"Please take me too, Master!"
The golem familiar was torn to pieces by my fist and sword, so I expected it to die, but it survived in small pieces. It smelled the salted chocolate, crawled here on instinct alone, and ate it.
I was amazed.
No, and what about the master?
“What are you saying, you?”
I frowned and asked again.
Then the small lizard, familiar with its mouth covered in black chocolate, begged again in a desperate voice.
"Please take me too. I'll work hard and willingly for you, my great master! And, master, just one more chocolate for me... please! It's so delicious."
Oh my god.
Are you begging me to eat a chocolate bar right now?
But compared to his serious speech, the guy's appearance was pitiful, and if not insignificant, he was quite cute.
So before I knew it, I was crouching down and feeding salt chocolate to my lizard familiar.
“Princess?”
Carol called me calmly.
“What on earth are these familiar talking about?”
Carol must have sensed the mood even though I couldn't hear her, and she opened her eyes wide, wary.
“That, that...”
“Are you sure you’re going to take them all with you?”
"Hmm."
I pretended to be troubled and looked away from Carol's gaze, but my mind was already made up.
Even though they were familiars, I couldn't bear to leave behind the cute guys who loved sweet food and followed me around.
What if I leave them behind and then get contracted by the warlocks again, and then turn into a terrifying form against their will and kill innocent people?
After thinking it over, I thought it would be right for me to take them.
There is also a need to properly research what conditions must be met for a familiar to return to its original form.
So, I became a strange person who had three familiar, even though I hadn't even decided to become a warlock.
At this point, I'm starting to think that it's easy to be mistaken for a warlock.
I don't know.
Having given up, I took a quick look around the battlefield where I'd fought the familiars, then prepared to set out again. Carol, beside me, asked again, her voice sullen.
“Princess, are you really going to take all these familiar with you?!”
The familiar lined up rolled their eyes.
"Leave that useless maid behind, Yvonne!"
"I'd rather be a slave, Yvonne! Hehe."
"I am already a slave, Master."
Hmm...
Not everything is normal.
I was glad Carol didn't know what the familiar said, so I tried to convince her.
"Yeah, that's what happened. It'll be a great help to me. They're a very capable familiar."
“I know. I saw it earlier.”
“But why?”
"No, if it's a familiar, it'll be scary. And Pembe too, why are they all so cute that the Princess loves them?! I'm so jealous. The Princess is mine alone."
"Well, Carol? I was never meant to be yours. I'm mine..."
I cautiously claimed ownership of Yvonne Argenthoz.
“Oh, really. I’m so upset!”
Carol, who suddenly went wild, seemed to not be able to hear what I was saying.
So I quickly admitted it to appease her.
"Yeah, yeah. You're upset? You're upset. Of course you are! But it's okay, Carol. But you're the only human who's hanging out with me right now, right?"
“Ha. Well, that’s true. Hmm.”
Carol seemed to feel better after being reminded that she was the only human, and she stopped being jealous and started taking care of the familiara.
Even though she says things like that, she takes good care of the familiars for me, so how could I not like Carol?
I looked around further, but couldn't find any additional familiars chasing us.
But once familiars appeared to attack me...
'Empress Giselle noticed.'
“Hey, black dough.”
"Dough? How dare you, this body!"
“I think you’re just as stupid as this guy. Why can’t you melt a single hair on my head?”
"What? Do you really want to die today?"
“Didn’t you come here to kill me? Oh, how kind of you.”
"What?!"

"Huh."
And strangely enough.
The one-eyed eyeball that had been floating around terrifyingly, emitting an evil aura just a moment ago, has disappeared and has transformed into a small, cute one-eyed bird with round, crimson fur!
A cute one-eyed new familiar flew around me.
