"This... The spell of spatial fragmentation. Stand back, Heiter."
Heiter didn't understand what was going on, but he took Frieren's warning very seriously as she stood on the table and stared into space with her staff in her hand. Heiter immediately took his place behind Frieren, as was his old habit, but then he remembered that Fern was still in the kitchen.
Just as Heiter was about to run to Fern, the wall a few meters in front of Frieren suddenly collapsed in on itself.
"It's a black hole spell. It's not a big problem."
As Frieren stared at the wall, which left a small black hole after it slowly collapsed and disappeared, she had some guesses about the attacker. After all, there was only one other person in the world who could cast black hole magic.
Just then the gravity in the black hole strengthened and at the same time a magical circle appeared, enclosing Frieren and Heiter and pinning them in place.
Frieren's hair, which had been parted in two, was restored by gravity, and Heiter finally had a chance to speak. "Frieren! Protect Fern!"
Frieren remembered the girl in the kitchen and was about to use a spell to draw her to her side, but before she could activate her mana, a little purple-haired girl was swallowed by the black hole.
Frieren and Heiter's eyes widened at the same time, and the materials in the room began to be pulled by the spell.
Meanwhile, Frieren's bag was also swallowed by the black hole and Frieren's eyes widened in relief. Because she could still feel the magic she had placed in her bag so that she could always find it. So this black hole spell was not the black hole spell he had expected.
The black hole spell that Frieren could use was a black hole spell that absorbed objects and then destroyed them by breaking them into molecules, but this black hole spell was more like a summoning spell.
"Fernn!!!"
"Calm down Heiter and farewell. I guess I have no choice now but to accept your offer."
As Heiter was calmed by Frieren's calm words, Frieren suddenly narrowed the scope of the spell that had pinned them to the ground around Heiter and she was pulled by the black hole.
At first Heiter felt a brief fright as she said farewell, but soon he calmed down, remembering that Frieren would not throw her life away for a child she did not know. Apparently Fern is still alive and Frieren is going to save her.
Immediately after the black hole pulled Frieren out, it closed again and the magic formation around Heiter dissipated.
Heiter collapsed on the floor, coughed a few times and leaned against the wall, looking around the living room, which was empty of furniture.
"It seems I'm destined to die alone. " cough sound
As Frieren traveled through a large hole in space, analyzing the colored lines around her, she thought it was the most advanced teleportation magic she had ever seen and was sure it was Seri who had summoned her.
Since their travel speed is worrying, she uses magic to accelerate herself and catches up with Fern, who has tears streaming down her cheeks as she glides silently through the void ahead of her.
When Fern saw that she had been caught by her guests, she immediately hid her tears and spoke to her.
.......
Yuta came in front of the black hole in the air and looked at the fallen objects on the ground.
Meanwhile, many system screens continued to appear where he had just been.
Yuta continued to look at the falling objects for a while, finally dodging a chair that was about to hit his head, and then returned to his original position and continued reading the system screens.
[ Congratulations on pulling a wooden spoon ]
[ Congratulations on pulling a magical bag ]
[ Congratulations on pulling the wooden table ]
[ Congratulations on pulling a little girl (Fern?) ]
Yuta snorted at the system before looking at the girl who fell through the black hole and crashed to the ground. Tch
The way the system told him that a little girl had been drawn was very strange.
Yuta briefly tried to see from a distance if the girl was dangerous, but it seemed that this little girl was just an ordinary girl and was afraid of the darkness.
Yuta moved away from the system screens as he approached her, hoping he wouldn't have to kill her.
[ Congratulations on pulling an old elf (Frieren?) ]
Yuta remembered who she was as he watched the purple-haired girl acting mature despite the wetness around her eyes. This was a character from an anime he had watched in a previous life. But right now she was just a little girl.
Yuta continued to approach the little girl as he remembered the details about the anime.
"Hey!"
Yuta didn't know how to communicate with a little girl, but he remembered that Fern had been raised with a very sensible and mature personality.
Fern continued to stare at the ground for a while, then looked up, turned around and looked Yuta straight in the eyes.
"So, if I kill you, I will be free to roam this new world, a very interesting spell."
Yuta guessed that by this time she was already Frieren's student and scratched the back of his head, preparing to explain. Fern couldn't beat him at this age. Besides, he was too close to her and he could cut her throat without raising his hand. Of course, he didn't want to be so cruel to a pretty girl like Fern.
"If I kill you, you will have a contract with me from now on and I can summon you whenever I want, but don't worry, even if I kill you, you won't be hurt and you will be resurrected immediately. Sigh I don't know how to say it, how about meeting first? Our time is unlimited."
Fern opened her mouth as if she had no problem with that and got up from the floor and flapped her top as she calmly introduced herself.
