Plant Mage 26

Artificial Spirit and Mysterious Seed X (1)

The next morning.

I was awakened by the cool air, perhaps it was from the morning dew on the tent.

No.

It was not only because of the morning dew that it was cold.

I felt an incredibly cold gaze on me so I opened my eyelids.

There, I found a beautiful, expressionless lady, who was leaning on me and was staring at my face. Her hair is translucent white and her eyes got the color of red jade.

She looks slightly older than me.

She has an intelligent-looking face and icy good looks. Her voice is clear and soft.

Her arms and legs are long and slender and she’s wearing white clothes.

She’s floating and looks like just a thin layer. She’s like a hologram on a pixel-like rainbow-colored square.

Artificial spirit(Tulpa).

Her name is Navi.

She is my guardian who was created by chance by this reincarnated person. Or rather, she’s like a guardian or something.

Anyway, she’s very convenient,

「……My liege Riito Ricart, I demand you to wake up. Navi misses you.」

She started nagging again.

Artificial spirits are a lost ancient magic technique and in the empire, they are supposed to be named since they are considered as semi-autonomous magical creatures. However, their existence is top secret.

It’s a technology discovered accidentally while infiltrating the underground dungeon where monsters are gushing out.

Several artificial spirits are captured by court mages and used in an experiment by top mages. The tulpas are found to be chore dolls that can move and at most, they can be messengers.

However, Navi is an autonomous artificial spirit. She can move on her own.

She’s an artificial spirit that I created from scratch.

At the moment, only I can create an artificial spirit but now that the results of my research have been completely taken and left behind the capital, it is not impossible for other mages to reproduce it. Well, it will take a long time though.

For artificial spirits, their master’s order is absolute.

In my previous life, I would have called her out and say, “Hey, Navi!” like a start-up word for a certain app that will tell you tomorrow’s weather and even tell you some jokes.

However, Navi is a little different.

「Master, I demand a response. Did you sleep too much that your brain rotted?」
