In the end, Ichiyo decided not to use the summoning contract right away and instead took out his phone to call the number for Mr. Tadokoro, the man responsible for delivering supplies to his patisserie.

"Moshi Moshi..." The calm voice of a middle-aged man came from the other end of the phone, and Ichiyo asked straightforwardly, "Mr. Tadokoro, do you have any time today? I've used a lot of ingredients here and I was wondering if you could deliver some for me, especially fruits and glutinous rice flour. I'll send you a text with the specific requirements in a minute."

"No problem, young master. This is my job."

The other party responded quickly and seemed reliable, so Ichiyo added, "I also need you to help me buy some special props. I will pay for this expense myself, so you don't need to report to my father. Is that convenient for you?"

After Ichiyo finished speaking, there was a long silence on the other end of the phone and eventually, Tadokoro responded in a slightly deep voice, "What do you need?"

It was clear that Mr. Tadokoro understood the meaning of Ichiyo's words. Young master didn't want anyone else to know what he would buy next.

Ichiyo nodded in satisfaction and told Tadokoro the list of items he needed to buy through his phone.

The more Mr. Tadokoro listened, the more frightened he became, silently deciding that he must not let his daughter come into contact with this young master!

He never expected that the usually polite young master had this dark side!

After hanging up the phone, Mr. Tadokoro was sweating and quickly started buying things. It was easy to purchase the ingredients because the Sakuraba family had a special supply channel, he just had to report the needed quantity. However, he had to go out himself to buy the additional items.

At 5 PM, Ichiyo was standing at the back door of the patisserie waiting for a long time until a Wuling stopped.

"Did you buy everything?"

"Yes!"

"How much did it cost?"

"It's nothing, just pocket change. Young master, don't worry about it..."

Ichiyo frowned at the middle-aged man and said, "Mr. Tadokoro, what are you talking about? You also earn a living through this job. I don't lack this money. Just tell me the amount and I'll pay you."

He was not the kind of boss who skimped on his employees' wages. Although the patisserie's turnover had been low these days, he still had a little private saving!

Ichiyo's eyes were unwavering, and in the end, Mr. Tadokoro reported a figure. Ichiyo paid him, and together they brought the items into the patisserie.

After seeing Mr. Tadokoro leave, Ichiyo picked up a black box and prepared to go up to the second floor. He thought for a moment and also brought the kitchen knife he had used to chop cabbage earlier.

The first floor of the patisserie had a door with a "do not disturb" sign hanging on it, while the second floor had a large empty space in the living room. Ichiyo spread the summoning contract on the floor and placed many props beside it, such as a small whip, candles, and other miscellaneous props. The most lethal was a homemade hand crossbow bought from an unknown gang and a kitchen knife that had not been registered!

He wanted to see if a disobedient magic pet summoned by the contract would obey him after he used three command seals to control its movement, resistance, and a set of severe punishments. If it still didn't obey, he would continue the next day and make the small whip wet with chili water!

Ichiyo, a renowned animal trainer in his previous life, had a special bond with the cats and dogs in the neighborhood, who all obeyed him willingly. Although he believed in nurturing them through love and affection, he was more familiar with physical methods of domestication.

"Whoever you are, whether it's a slime, a goblin, or a green caterpillar, it doesn't matter if you have ill will towards this world. It has nothing to do with me. You agreed to be summoned and become my magical pet willingly. I may hit you, scold you, or neglect you, but I promise I won't abandon you. Even if you're a waste, I can find a suitable job for you to become recyclable garbage. So, if you're willing, come out, my magical pet!"

Ichiyo stood in front of the summoning contract, reciting a makeshift, incoherent summoning line. He felt that he had said something extremely unreasonable, and it was unlikely that any magical creature with a bit of strength would agree to be summoned. That's why he was able to let his guard down and activate the contract.

Suddenly, a purple-red light enveloped the entire living room. Two giant magic circles emerged from the contract, one above and one below, slowly rotating and leaving a space in the middle. The light flowed.

Ichiyo wore a pair of sunglasses he had prepared and lifted his homemade hand crossbow to aim at the center of the light. The magic circles lasted for less than half a minute before the light gradually dimmed. At the same time, the two magic circles shot toward Ichiyo and the magical creature he summoned.

Ichiyo only felt a stabbing pain on the back of his left hand, but he didn't have time to see what was going on. Instead, he watched more carefully at the center of the light, where a creature was gradually appearing.

It was ... a spider!

Wakaba honestly felt that she was quite unlucky. She couldn't figure out why she had been reborn, especially as a small spider, and why the experience had been so difficult. After a lot of introspection, she finally came up with an answer: when confronted with a problem, just ignore it! As long as she doesn't think about the reason, she won't have a headache for too long. So, she accepted her fate as a spider and put all her efforts into filling her stomach!

Then, she ate the corpse of another spider and gained the title of "Cannibal" and the "Appraisal" skill. However, she found that none of this was of any use!

In a cave full of danger, she was still a small spider at the bottom of the food chain!

Just when she was feeling sad, a summoning phrase came to her mind, from a boy!

Although the summoning phrase was extremely excessive and shameless, she didn't hesitate to agree when she thought that she might be able to return to human society and eat normal food through this opportunity.

A light took her away and brought her to another world. And then, she saw a sharp stainless steel arrow.

"Hey, spider, can you understand me?"

Ichiyo looked at the spider, which was only a few centimeters long without legs, and unconsciously took a breath of cold air!

Fortunately, the appearance of the spider didn't look too extreme, it was pale white and gave her a bit of a silly temperament.

Wakaba's legs felt wobbly. As soon as she realized that the hand-crossbow had targeted her, her eight spider legs had been trembling nonstop. As soon as she heard the boy's question, she frantically nodded her head, worried that she would be shot with an arrow if she hesitated for even a moment.

Ichiyo saw that the spider was able to communicate, and was slightly relieved. As long as it can communicate, it's good. He was afraid of summoning a monster with no intelligence at all, only basic instincts. If that were the case, his training would probably take a long time!

'If it can communicate, it must have intelligence, and the problem becomes much simpler,' Ichiyo thought to himself. "Spider, can you speak?" he asked the spider, who stood still, not daring to approach.

"Yes, I can! And I'm not a spider, I'm a human!" Wakaba explained.

He frowned. "You're kidding. You're clearly a spider. Do you think I'm blind?"

Perhaps due to the special nature of their contract, He was able to fully understand the spider's words and the meaning behind them. This only served to insult his intelligence, as he couldn't believe that a large spider would claim to be human. "This isn't a movie. Do you really think a small animal can become a fairy?" he asked, skeptical.

"No, I was human before! I'm a reincarnator. I don't know why I reincarnated and turned into a spider. I'm desperate too!" Wakaba, who was not good at communicating with people and was especially nervous around men, cried and told her tragic experience as a spider, tears and snot running down her face. Ichiyo's brows furrowed deeper as he listened.

It seemed that it wasn't impossible? Reincarnation was not much different from his own rebirth, except that he had lived two lives as a human while Wakaba had changed from a human to an arthropod.

Ichiyo did not lower the hand crossbow, still firmly holding it and aiming at the spider. "You say you were human before. Prove it to me," he demanded.

"Okay!" Wakaba frantically nodded and quickly said, "My name is Wakaba. I was an ordinary high school girl before...blah blah blah...blah blah blah..."

"Stop!" Ichiyo's head throbbed as he listened and quickly interrupted her. "Don't talk nonsense. What color underwear you wore before your reincarnation has nothing to do with me! Next, I'll ask and you answer. Understand?"

"Understand!" Wakaba nodded.

In the living room of the patisserie on the second floor of Totsuki Gourmet Street, a person and a spider faced each other with serious expressions.

"Question: is it true that Trump was not reelected?" He asked Wakaba.

"No, he was assassinated a few days before the election and lost without a doubt!" Wakaba replied.

Ichiyo sat down on the couch, put down his crossbow, and looked regretful. "It looks like Trump was doomed to fail in his election!" In a way, he actually quite liked the old comrade Trump. After all, not many people did their job as well as he did.

According to the information revealed by Wakaba, the world she was in before her rebirth is definitely different from the one Ichiyo was in before.  Ichiyo looked at the back of his left hand, where a simplified spider was tattooed in the form of a totem. Three long swords pierced the spider's body, and the entire design was purplish-black, like a tattoo. Thinking for a moment, Ichiyo controlled one of the three long swords to shatter into a binding force. "I'll use the power of the command seal! is everything you said just now true?" he asked Wakaba.

In an instant, Wakaba, who had relaxed slightly after seeing Ichiyo put down his hand crossbow, tensed up involuntarily and nodded against her will. 

Then the second command seal was broken today. "Spider, will you have any hostility towards me?" Ichiyo asked.

Wakaba shook her head.

According to the terms of the contract, only three Command Seals can be issued per day. If one is used, it will be naturally restored the next day, and if it is not used, it will remain the same the next day. Ichiyo did not use the final commandment, though he was not sure what principle this was based on. Nevertheless, he habitually left a reserve in case of emergencies.

The interrogation ended and Wakaba regained her freedom. The round spider's face looked somewhat unhappy. "I already told you that I am not a spider, my name is Wakaba Hiiro!"

"Okay, spider girl! I understand, spider girl!" Ichiyo replied, taking out his phone to check the time and nodding. "It's almost time."

"What time?" Wakaba asked, confused.

But she soon understood.

The magic circle that had brought her from the monster-filled underground lair appeared beneath her, and Ichiyo stood up, patting his hands. "Sorry, although I feel sorry for your experience, the contract we currently signed is too low level, and you can only be summoned here for one hour a day. I wish you could continue to live. If you haven't died, I'll invite you to eat something delicious tomorrow."

"No way!!?" Wakaba exclaimed, struggling as the purple-red light exploded and she was despairingly pulled back. She looked at Ichiyo with tears in her eyes and said, "Coca Cola! Chips! And Games! These are my last motivations for living! Please be sure to prepare them for me..."

Before she could finish speaking, the spider-girl was taken away by the magic circle. Ichiyo calmly returned the furniture in the living room to its original position, and then returned to the bedroom with a leaden storage box and put the fragments of the golden ring inside.

Coca Cola? Chips?

"What a joke," Ichiyo thought to himself. "I am the master who summons monsters, not a monster pet. I have no time today, so I'll have Mr. Tadokoro help you prepare something tomorrow."

Ichiyo did not want to run errands unless it was absolutely necessary. He was too lazy to go out and wander around. However, he needed to think about what happened today. Compared to the technology on the side of the two wasteland girls, it seemed that cultivating Wakaba was more reliable because he had not yet found a way to send things over from the side of the wasteland girls. On the other hand, if Wakaba could bring some specialties of her world with her when she was teleported, he could probably continuously obtain unique resources from a magical foreign world.

Since the system awakened, his life trajectory had changed a lot. According to his original plan, if he could live his life without too many regrets, it would be perfect. But now, different worlds, abilities, and special ingredients, each one of them was challenging his original bottom line and expanding his ambition.

"If the system develops to its peak," Ichiyo wondered, "will it make me a god, able to split mountains and seas, and live forever? If I can reach that point, can I also extend the lifespan of my family and the people I care about?"

The future was full of uncertainty and opportunities.
