god zero was shocked and called this God stupid because he looked more like an underling due to his Appearance Zer soon found himself lying on the ground as he watched the sky he felt something crawling on his chest thinking it was a bug he panicked and brushed it away looking around he wondered where he was he remembered being transported to another world after saving a child from being hit by a truck and meeting God afterward he assumed he was now in that other world and started scratching his head in confusion at that moment he noticed

more bugs around him Afraid of being bitten he tried to pick them up and throw them away but then he realized they weren't bugs at all in front of him was a trembling small creature like a tiny human zero asked if it could speak and if it understood him the small creature responded with tiny nods and Shakes and zero found it cute he then realized that his intense gaze might be scaring the little creature so he covered his eyes to avoid frightening it but then he realized he couldn't see Anything himself he removed his hands

and soon discovered that the small creatures had multiplied in an instant and were now surrounding him they all looked at him with hopeful expressions and the tough looking zero blushed because he found them cute this marked the beginning of Zero's life with the little creatures however he still wanted an explanation from God first a brand new morning had arrived and zero woke up because of the energetic little guys Surrounding him the weather was nice as always and it was Zero's fifth day sleeping in the cave it was another peaceful day for fishing with the chibbies

however the spirits refused Zero's invitation and showed him some drawings on the ground they couldn't talk but they always found ways to tell zero what they were thinking seeing many house drawings he assumed the spirits wanted him to visit a town zero refused since he had already gotten used to Living in a cave the spirits insisted and zero eventually gave in he felt disheartened because he had enjoyed living in the cave soon after zero wondered how far the town was since they had walked quite a distance already just then zero discovered a paved Road suddenly

he heard a scream and saw a girl running toward him telling him to run away too it was Zero's first time meeting a human after practicing conversations with the spirits he tried To say hello but his intense gaze made the girl shriek in fear she quickly dropped to her knees and apologized zero claimed he meant no harm and asked her to calm down however the frightened girl wasn't listening and offered him money thinking he was trying to mug her at that moment two goblins who had been chasing the girl appeared zero could tell they were

the bad guys despite the girl's warning zero didn't hesitate to kick one of the Goblins he then glared At the other Goblin and kicked it too the first goblin tried to pretend it was dead but zero didn't give it a chance to survive the girl watched as zero acted like a villain she asked him to stop since the poor goblins were foaming at the mouth the scene was too much for her and she fainted zero couldn't believe how annoying the girl was soon after the unconscious girl started dreaming about being surrounded by spirits and wondered

if they would form a contract with her Zero couldn't believe the girl was daydreaming he was already frustrated that he couldn't start a fire the girl then regained her senses and realized there were spirits around she also noticed that zero was still with her and after some thought she asked for forgiveness thinking zero was a human trafficker she exclaimed that she was worth nothing despite being the daughter of a wealthy family and even tried to offer him money zero claimed that wasn't The case the girl then assumed zero had done something to her while she

was unconscious she began a monologue calling herself filthy and saying she was a girl meant to be sold away zero angrily told her to be quiet he explained that he had only taken her to safety after she lost Consciousness he said he didn't want anything to do with her and didn't care if she believed him or not he then told her to leave the girl tried to speak but zero busy Starting a fire asked what she wanted now the girl said she could help and and pointed her fingers at the campfire instantly fire appeared and

she asked if it was enough shocked asked what trick she had used the girl replied that she used magic but zero didn't know anything about it the girl panicked and repeated the word magic three times however zero still didn't understand the girl became worried meeting someone like zero for the first time zero angrily asked what She was talking about the girl then asked again if zero really didn't know what magic was and zero quickly confirmed that he didn't the girl was shocked because everyone she knew used Magic zero said the people around him didn't he

mentioned that he had arrived only 5 days ago and didn't even know where he was the girl assumed that zero might have lost his memories but was too afraid to ask zero then told her to leave if she had something important to Do the girl offered to help and zero noticed that she wasn't a bad person at all feeling happy zero asked if she was sure seeing his intimidating look the girl asked him not to stare directly at her zero found her comment rude while preparing their dinner the girl explained that magic involved focusing one's

mana and that turning it into fire or water zero understood the simple instructions and used the bonfire as an example however the girl mentioned that Starting a fire was something anyone could do hearing this zero tried to extinguish the fire by shouting a chant but nothing happened he wondered if he was missing something like a fighting Spirit the girl thought he was strange since anyone with magic should be able to do it feeling determined zero shouted angrily along with a Fire Spirit the girl was startled by this but still nothing happened zero then calmly ad

admitted that he didn't really need Magic because he had never been able to use it in the first place finally zero asked the girl for her name and why she was alone the girl looked troubled so zero told her it was okay if she didn't want to talk about it he asked how far the town was but instead the girl answered his first question she explained that she wanted to form a contract with a spirit zero asked what a spirit and a contract were the girl was surprised but quickly realized that zero Wouldn't know about

spirits since he didn't know about magic either she assumed zero had really lost his memories zero then told the spirits that it was time to eat and the girl could only perceive this as zero talking to himself the girl explained that Spirits could take on many forms usually about the size of a hand and their appearance depended on their attributes she mentioned that Spirits rarely appeared in front of humans and she hoped to see One zero had a blank expression when he realized that the small creatures in front of him might be the spirits that

the girl was talking about he understood this when the girl couldn't see the little ones zero then asked why the girl wanted to form a contract with spirits even if it meant putting herself in danger the girl explained that Spirits couldn't use Magic on their own but if they received Mana from humans they could make that person's magic much Stronger the effect was so powerful that Contracting with just one Spirit could greatly enhance someone's magic if someone formed a contract with a spirit they would be recognized as adults with two Spirits they could use high

level magic and with three or more they could become a national level great wizard zero called the girl a kid and asked how to form a contract with a spirit and make them appear the girl didn't know and relied on luck she cried saying that Many Mysteries remained unknown she exclaimed that their current location was a place where one could meet many spirits when the girl got depressed again zero offered to help the girl was surprised but immediately became scared by Zero's face zero felt offended but offered to accompany her saying that traveling alone would

be difficult he mentioned that they had many companions and looked at the little ones the girl noticed zero talking to himself again However zero wanted to explore the town first the girl was okay okay with it since she planned to return soon she expressed relief because being alone had made her feel uneasy zero was surprised when she thanked him the girl then asked for his name and zero introduced himself she tried to introduce herself by her full name but decided to go by the name Grace instead the two shook hands and while Grace called him

by his name zero struggled with her name and called her Gosu uak the next morning still mispronouncing her name zero told Grace that they should head straight to the town of curado shortly after zero was mistakenly identified as a demon by the town guards Grace explained that zero was her companion and although he looked scary he was not a demon she apologized to zero for the strict checkpoint explaining that monsters entering the town would be a big problem zero wondered if the little Spirits were cute Enough to get free passes the spirits marched cutely as

they entered the town of curado zero then commented on how everyone's heads were colorful Grace realized he was talking about their hair colors zero wondered if they were following some kind of trend Grace remembered that zero had lost his memories though that was just her assumption she then explained that hair color represented the type of magic a person specialized in for example Someone like Grace who had red hair specialized in Fire magic she also pointed out that zero must have an Earth Magic specialty because he had brown hair zero assumed that was why he couldn't

use Fire magic Grace mentioned that anyone could perform a simple fire Spell angered zero tried to invoke fire again with a loud voice but Grace stopped him warning that he might be mistaken for a fire demon because of his Fierce eyes and expression just then They heard an argument nearby and found an old man being kicked around by a thug zero noticed what was happening Grace felt sorry for the old man and asked zero to wait while she handled the situation however zero had already left her side and she found him confronting the thug zero

quietly walked behind the thug and bumped into him on purpose the thug got angry and zero quickly punched him in the body the thug felt the pain and dropped to his knees zero told him To shut up and pressed his dirty shoe against the Thug's face Grace became very worried seeing Zero act like a craze demon suddenly a kid asked what zero was doing to his brother zero then asked what they were doing to the old man his angry glare scared the brothers and they ran away while apologizing the old man then tried to apologize

for causing trouble but froze as soon as he saw Zero's Fierce eyes for zero it was the same as always Grace scolded him for Hitting someone zero argued that the thug was the one looking for a fight and said he held back more than usual Grace begged him to stop saying she was worried zero apologized and jokingly promised to end things quickly with a final blow next time the old man couldn't help but laugh at the two young people's banter and thanked them for saving him the old man introduced himself as aruji Kat's blacksmith he

showed his products which shocked zero Zero was in awe and immediately gave aruji a nickname aruji told zero to take anything he wanted as a token of thanks however zero said it was a small thing and didn't feel right taking anything aruji was surprised then laughed saying it was rare to see straightforward youngsters like zero these days zero didn't want to take anything but Grace suggested he accept aji's offer since he still didn't have any weapons or armor a discount would also be fine aruji got Upset and insisted he couldn't take money from his savior

in the end zero agreed and thanked aruji zero soon tried on some armor that wasn't heavy at all and was easy to move in Grace said it looked good on him and even the little ones agreed aruji asked about his weapon and wondered if zero wanted an axe since he had one zero said he had something specific in mind but he couldn't see it in the room aruji happily offered to make one for him without hesitation zero Asked for an iron pipe Grace panicked and exclaimed that a pipe wasn't a weapon at all she couldn't

believe a pipe was going to be used as a weapon zero explained that it was a weapon like a bat with nails then he realized that this world might not have such a thing aruji burst out laughing and found Zero's Choice interesting he promised to make one for him quickly Grace then decided to buy some other things and food zero wanted to go with her but Grace told him to stay and wait zero then asked for some bandages and Grace left zero sat still and noticed the little creatures getting excited inside the Smithy he then

saw a new tough looking fire chibi reaching out its hand zero wondered if it was asking for a handshake similar to the way ET did since coming into this new world he had been doing the same thing with the little ones and wondered if it was a sign of friendship he decided not to Overthink it and just hoped they would all get along the little ones continued playing around Grace returned after shopping and kept working on Zero's iron pipe they even had a meal together afterward aruji finished the pipe and zero was impressed by how

light it was swinging it around aruji claimed it was a one-of-a-kind iron pipe zero then noticed Grace staring intently at the pipe Grace asked if aruji used mithil and aruji casually confirmed it Grace Was shocked and zero asked what mithil was Grace explained that mithil was much sturdier than iron and very expensive it was usually used to make swords and armor for Holy nights zero not fully grasping the importance of mithil Simply concluded that it was something expensive aruji then told him to take the pipe saying he had taken a liking to him zero wrapped

bandages around the end of the iron pipe surprising Grace who realized that's where the bandages were Supposed to go before they left aruji asked them to visit again if they needed any repairs or new weapons saying he had a lot of fun zero and Grace thanked aruji for everything the two soon went to a nearby Inn where the hostess assumed they would share a room but Grace asked for two rooms to clear up any misunderstanding the next morning Grace blamed zero for doing something he shouldn't have done did something happen we didn't expect nope Grace

blamed zero For not waking her up early causing her to oversleep they could have already reached the forest of Spirits by then zero sighed and asked Grace if she knew the way Grace claimed she might know but zero complained realizing she didn't actually know the way Grace then explained that Spirits had strong magical power and the place with such magic should be the forest however she wasn't entirely sure zero started to feel frustrated zero then asked how Grace could tell that the spirits forest was nearby Grace said it was just a feeling her answer made

zero even more frustrated zero then asked how to recognize the strong magical power of the spirits Grace explained that the place would have a dense forest cleaner water and richer Earth zero remembered meeting some small creatures in such a place he thought about Grace's description of the spirits and wondered if those little creatures were actually The spirits Grace was looking for he considered guiding her to that Forest Grace then claimed she had a hunch about the way though she wasn't certain zero became more concerned and decided to take the lead zero told her that he

knew his way around the area and instructed her to follow him Grace refused thinking zero might take her somewhere private where no one could see them Her Imagination ran wild knowing they were heading into a dim Forest despite Looking irritated zero asked the spirit on his shoulder to lead the way the spirit agreed and zero thanked it he then told Grace that she would be left behind if she didn't follow grace started complaining about being left alone and zero grew even more frustrated he sighed thinking about how girls could be with their changing moods zero

remembered wanting to live in the same Forest as the little ones they soon reached the forest and zero immediately Felt at home he was so touched that he teared up Grace was amazed by the forest's magical power and thought it was the perfect place she then noticed that zero was already preparing dinner since it was getting dark and they had returned home Grace was stunned and mentioned that they were in the spirit's Forest zero already knew this as Grace had mentioned it before and she was surprised that he had known all along Grace was confused

because there was no Solid proof of the forest's existence with only vague information recorded in books zero claimed he had lived in the area for a while which shocked grace even more prompting her to ask for an explanation during dinner zero revealed to Grace that he came from another world though it was hard to believe it explained the mysterious aspects of zero such as his strange clothing unusual eyes and lack of knowledge about magic and Spirits however Grace still wondered Why she couldn't see the spirits zero found it hard to believe that the little ones

with him were actually Spirits Grace suggested that it might be due to Zero's unique skill that allowed him to see them as Spirits don't usually reveal themselves to humans zero felt disappointed thinking he had only gotten close to the little ones because of his skill rather than forming a true friendship with them Grace disagreed explaining that one's skills reflect Their true self she pointed out that being able to see spirits and being friends with them were two different things zero looked pleased with Grace's explanation after their dinner Grace suggested that zero should hide the fact

that he had such a skill zero wondered why since everyone in Grace's World usually had one Grace reminded him that although anyone in her world could use magic most people couldn't see spirits so not many could form a cont contract With one if people knew that zero could see spirits they might take advantage of him forcing a spirit to make a contract with them to become stronger the thought of the little spirits being forced to do something angered zero and he swore he would beat anyone who tried it Grace asked him to calm down since

it was only a possibility she just wanted zero to understand how important and Powerful Spirits were zero then looked at the cute round little spirits and asked if They really were Spirits Grace couldn't confirm it since she couldn't see them but the little ones matched the descriptions she hadn't expected them to looked so cute inside wondering what to do next there were many spirits around her but since she couldn't see them she couldn't form a contract zero wondered if he could ask the little ones to become friends with Grace Grace didn't want that because it

would mean relying on Zero's help she appreciated his help But she didn't feel right about it since it wasn't her effort and she didn't want to burden the spirits zero realized that Grace was a really kind person Grace was shocked and said she had thought he saw her as a dumb selfish girl zero admitted that he had and Grace called him horrible before becoming sad she decided to rest for the day and try to befriend the spirits in the morning zero reminded her that she could ask for help anytime he was already sure the little

Spirits Liked her since the fire Spirits had already started gathering around her a week had passed and despite expecting to form a contract with the spirits Grace still couldn't see them she felt depressed again and cried out loud wondered what was wrong since the little ones were gathered around her he told her to calm down and look at the new spirit that had just arrived Grace looked hard at the bonfire where a fire Spirit was relaxing however she still Couldn't see it zero then picked up the fire spirit and introduced it to Grace asking if

they could become friends since she wasn't a bad person the spirit agreed and zero thanked it the spirit then suggested they performed the proof of friendship gesture Grace noticed zero raising his pointer finger and panicked she tried to call out what zero was doing but he explained that it was a gesture of friendship he did with the little ones Grace Cried Out Loud Exclaiming that she had figured out why she couldn't form a contract she explained that the gesture zero was about to do with the spirit was how one formed a contract she realized that

the reason no one was making a contract with her was because the spirits had already formed contracts with zero so they couldn't make one with her anymore zero also realized this after hearing Grace's explanation he casually apologized admitting that he knew nothing about it Grace celebrated realizing she wasn't useless after all and that everything was Zero's fault just then the new Fire Spirit waddled over to Grace and touched her pinky finger Grace felt something touch her and was finally able to see the spirit she asked if it was willing to form a contract with her

and the spirit gave a gesture of approval Grace felt happy and thanked the adorable Fire Spirit zero also felt glad for Grace Grace soon went to sleep with her Fire Spirit and zero took a look at her happy sleeping face he began wondering again what he should do in this world deciding not to overthink he hoped for another day surprisingly Grace still blamed zero for everything in her dream and sleep a few days later zero and Grace rode in a carriage heading toward the capital however Grace got severe motion sickness and they had to get

off the carriage because she needed to vomit zero complained that Grace hadn't told him About her condition Grace apologized explaining that she didn't want to cause any trouble zero blamed her cloak for covering her breath and asked why she always wore it Grace couldn't answer and continued vomiting as zero suggested they rest for a while he noticed something and quickly pulled Grace into a bush Grace thought zero was turning into a beast but she misunderstood zero told her to stay down and look in a specific Direction Grace saw goblins Nearby zero realized they would be

discovered soon despite feeling dizzy Grace wanted to fight the Goblins to show off her new power after making a contract with a spirit however zero jumped out of the Bush and charged at the Goblins needing to strike first the Goblins noticed him and one Archer aimed its bow and arrow at him zero alert threw his Mythril pipe at the goblin Archer the pipe hit the Goblins face distracting the others zero used this Opportunity to kick the goblins with a menacing expression like a demon Lord he took down the goblins on his own and Grace was

too late to join the fight zero felt refreshed after the battle he then noticed the goblins disappearing as if they were snapped away leaving pieces of jewelry behind when he asked Grace about them he found her unconscious again and decided to camp for the night that night Grace apologized zero told her not to worry too much and gave her Some medicine made by the spirits he asked her to stay put while he and the children went to find more firewood Grace offered to help but zero said it would be Troublesome If She fainted again realizing

he had made a mistake zero saw that Grace was getting more depressed and understood that the mood was getting worse he thought about asking her something and listening to her but he didn't know what to do next and felt frustrated Grace knowing she Often caused trouble felt useless zero feeling guilty remembered how he had been given a second chance in life he reminded himself that he wanted to become a better person despite his desire to change he felt pathetic overcome with frustration he yelled loudly and then sat down in front of Grace who was flustered

and scared he admitted he didn't know what to do in situations like this offered to listen since he couldn't say anything helpful And asked her not to hold back Grace was surprised but then smiled zero apologized for being a bad guy and Grace thanked him and asked him to listen to her story Grace shared that she had an older sister who was much more talented than she was she had always been compared to her sister and people often talked behind her back zero said those people were terrible Grace somewhat agreed and admitted she had blamed

herself this was why she had decided to Go on a trip to make a pact with a spirit to become a full-fledged Mage she hoped that even with just a little recognition she would be accepted zero then realized that Grace was like he used to be people had been afraid of him and had not tried to understand him he had felt like he didn't belong anywhere which is why he had wanted a place where he could be accepted however he had only imagined this need until he saw how much he was loved at his own

funeral zero Told Grace that there was no guaranteed way she would be accepted by others he asked why she needed their approval he reminded her that she had chosen to join him on a journey to find the little ones and that was already a great achievement he promised that if anyone did not acknowledge Grace he would deal with them he told her to stop crying crying and turned away Grace noticed zero blushing and giggled before thanking him a few minutes later zero wondered if Grace had finally calmed down and gone to sleep he then asked

the little ones to help him become Grace's support they all agreed and zero was pleased he saw that Grace was trying hard and decided to reward her later the next morning zero was greeted with a burnt breakfast which Grace had proudly made even the spirits were cautious about the food like it was something radioactive but zero still took a bite unfortunately it was inedible and zero complained that The food seemed to have killing intent seeing that Grace couldn't cook zero thought she might have been a sheltered princess or something grace flinched and blushed denying Zero's

guess zero wondered how Grace had managed without cooking skills Grace couldn't believe zero was laughing at her zero then advised her to take things at her own pace Grace assured him not to worry as they were getting closer to the capital soon after zero found himself standing In front of a huge gate and wall Grace asked if he was feeling scared zero said no and then wondered why there were so many people waiting in front of the gate he realized it was an inspection area Grace told him not to worry and instructed him to follow

her zero was confused because they were supposed to wait in line Grace asked him to keep his hood on since they would quickly pass through the gate zero tried to stop her thinking they needed to wait properly at That moment zero pulled back Grace's hood while trying to stop her the guards were shocked and zero thought things would go badly since they were skipping the line to his surprise the guards were delighted to see grace and welcomed her back with respect even kneeling Grace just smiled zero was confused by the guard's respect for grace and

even the spirits seemed unsure feeling flustered Grace suggested they move on and apologized to zero for not informing him Earlier zero confused by what Grace was saying realized something about her identity he assumed she might be the daughter of a corrupt Merchant then Grace asked him to take his own life zero still confused asked Grace why they were walking inside the castle at that moment a girl called out to Grace revealing herself to be Grace's older sister whom she had mentioned before the sister couldn't believe Grace was heading straight to her room without Greeting their

father she questioned Grace's judgment for bringing home a man who looked disreputable and ordered a guard to drag zero away naturally Zero's patience wore thin and he confronted Grace's sister he asked if he was the disreputable man she was referring to and she confirmed it Grace grew anxious about the confrontation between the two zero then declared that he was ready to fight if that's what she wanted Grace's sister called his words vulgar further Proving her Point Grace asked her sister to stop being mean to her guest and friend she then asked zero to follow her

as she prepared to greet her father her sister tried to stop her but Grace ignored her zero praised Grace's attitude and smirked he noticed Grace's sister glaring at him and she said it wasn't over between them yet zero didn't respond and Grace called out to him soon zero found himself in a sparkly guest room knowing that zero didn't understand What was going on Grace revealed that she was Grace orphan the second princess of the orphan Kingdom she apologized for hiding this from him she had planned to tell zero earlier but was afraid he would treat

her differently she wondered if zero was mad but he didn't care at all Grace was surprised that zero remained calm and didn't feel sorry for treating royalty rudely zero got annoyed and flicked Grace on the forehead he thanked her for staying true To herself the grace he knew and not acting like a princess he joked about kneeling before her calling it a dumb idea he didn't care who Grace was because she was still the same person he had met from the start Grace seemed happy that zero still talked to her in a casual way zero

reminded her that she was an idiot called her that again and told her not to worry too much suddenly a young maid appeared to serve some tea Grace introduced the girl as Her personal maid named Lily Lily greeted zero briefly and then informed Grace that the king wanted to see both of them Grace got up to make some preparations and asked Lily to look after zero in the meantime after Grace left zero had a strange feeling since he couldn't start a conversation with Lily and the little ones were playing on their own then he heard

Lily click her tongue which shocked him he wondered if he had imagined it but he hadn't Lily Gave him a degrading look and told him to stop staring at her with eyes that could scare off monsters he realized that Lily was Too Faced after hearing her harsh words she then bluntly said she wouldn't pretend to be nice since Grace wasn't there and told zero to un alive zero was shocked because Lily was nothing like the gentle Maids he had imagined all he saw in front of him was a bratty maid and he decided to confront

her at that moment Grace came back wearing a new outfit she asked if Lily had done something wrong zero said there wasn't anything wrong Lily then apologized for her mistakes saying they made zero angry Grace disagreed and said Lily had always done her job well she asked zero to forgive Lily zero agreed quickly but Lily's face still made him upset he lost his temper and called Lily a brat Grace tried to calm him down while Lily walked away soon after zero and Lily arrived at the Door of the throne room Grace said she would do

the usual talking and told zero to behave zero agreed because he didn't want to cause trouble for Grace with that the two of them entered the throne room Grace greeted her father who was sitting on the throne zero finally met the father Grace had been talking about her annoying older sister was also there and started ordering zero to kneel zero began to feel irritated but the younger ones tried to calm him down and one of Them tried to say something to him zero then noticed Grace trembling while kneeling so he silently knelt down too which

surprised her the older sister remarked that zero should have done that from the start since he was just a commoner zero tried to stay patient for Grace's sake the king then told his eldest daughter amoris to stop because zero was a guest zero found it funny since amaris's name matched perfectly with the word in Japanese the King Then told Grace that her actions had troubled many people Grace apologized but the king sighed and said he didn't need her apology however he asked if she had gained anything from her selfish actions Grace proudly announced that she

had formed a contract with a spirit and was now one step closer to adulthood amaris got excited and asked their father to congratulate Grace zero now expected that Grace would be accepted by her father unfortunately it wasn't a Happily Ever After Story the king called his own daughter a fool and despite Grace's effort and success he kept insisting that she was a burden to everyone because of her selfish actions he said she wouldn't grow up with that behavior and could only be treated as half a person zero was shocked and amera started to sweat nervously

the king blamed Grace's immaturity as the reason she hadn't been able to form a contract until now he told them to leave the Throne room amorus tried to reason with the King but he wouldn't listen to his talented daughter either Grace apologized and promised to reflect on her actions she also apologized to zero for the trouble and said she would arrange a guest room for him suddenly zero patted Grace's head and apologized he couldn't hold it in anymore when amaris asked what he was doing zero told her to be quiet he said he had been

patient and silent but now he didn't Care if Grace's father was a king he was angry he pointed out that Grace had just returned safely from a dangerous journey to form a contract with a spirit and deserved some praise for her efforts he asked the king if he even knew the real reason behind Grace's actions the king claimed she was just rushing for Success zero then called the king stupid which worried Grace he exclaimed that Grace was being treated poor and mocked behind her back the real reason Grace was Driven to a Breaking Point was

because of her own father the king zero finished his Outburst amoris ordered the knights to capture and execute zero immediately zero pulled out his mithil pipe ready to fight Grace grew concerned zero urged her to speak up he reminded her of how she once hated herself went alone to contract a spirit so others would see her differently and told her this was her only chance to say what she really wanted to say grace seemed conflicted Amoris commanded the knights not to show zero any Mercy Grace suddenly shouted her voice echoing in the throne room telling

everyone to stop she then glared at her father apologized and admitted everything was her fault asking him not to punish zero amoris told her not to cover for zero but Grace insisted she would accept any punishment she admitted that Zero's words were actually her own even though it was harsh to express her feelings through Zero's mouth Grace felt Oddly refreshed amoris was surprised by Grace's words and expression Grace asked zero to let her handle the situation but he wanted to take responsibility for his Outburst the two bantered until the king interrupted them instructing Grace to

take zero to his guest room soon after zero saw the little ones brainstorming about what might happen to them in a quick flashback the king himself had suggested that he should review the incident so he could Overlook their Recent actions zero still couldn't understand the king's words Lily hoped zero would be executed right there zero was surprised when the small maid suddenly appeared out of nowhere Lily then claimed that Grace was now in a bad spot because of Zero's actions she pointed out that Grace's builtup efforts were wasted and it was all because of zero

zero could lose his head and Grace could lose her chance to succeed to the throne rumors would spread that bringing Someone who could cause a riot inside the castle was a thoughtless act for royalty people would now say that Grace had fallen low zero then agreed that the way he spoke was trashy Lily was glad that zero had some self-awareness however he felt bad after seeing Grace doing her best he couldn't accept the fact that Grace couldn't even receive a simple praise from her family knowing that that zero was Rowdy with everyone Lily called him

a simple idiot zero Asked if Lily was trying to pick a fight Lily then thanked zero out of nowhere which made him blush since it was so unexpected zero didn't want to think further about what had just happened and he looked forward to what Grace would do next zero left his room but got lost somehow he ended up in front of amaris's room and overheard her speaking badly about him as he tried to walk away he heard amorus mentioned how scared she was of his eyes to the point that she Almost cried curious zero peaked

inside and realized realized that amoris was actually frightened of him then zero noticed amoris holding a doll and calling it Grace she began speaking sweetly to it showing the grace doll sisterly affection zero and the spirits felt like they were in a bad situation having witnessed something they shouldn't have something forbidden they collectively promised to forget what they had seen and heard just as they Were planning to erase their memories Grace appeared she asked why zero was standing in front of her sister's room and wondered if they were going to talk zero claimed he was

just returning to his room amoris then creepily peaked through the door and asked why they were standing there Grace apologized for disturbing her and said she would go back to her room zero knew he had messed up if he turned his back now a ciscon monster would definitely kill him amorus Asked what zero was doing outside her room zero looking for a way to escape claimed he was on his way to Grace's room to meet her however Grace mentioned that she had seen zero standing in front of the door for a while zero insisted that

he was just on his way to see her and happened to run into her amorus then told Grace to go back to her room because she needed to talk talked to zero Grace realized what was happening and assumed that zero had come to amoris To befriend her zero was now in serious trouble zero tried to stop Grace from leaving but failed he attempted to walk away but amoris quickly grabbed his hair and ordered him to get inside tea was served but zero and the younger ones felt anxious amorus told him to drink the tea because

it had poison in it without hesitation she asked if zero had seen everything zero couldn't say anything and then a knife flew past him amoris was disappointed that she missed Her shot zero quickly hid behind the couch and asked her to calm down he promised not to tell anyone about what he had seen amorus didn't trust zero at all and believed he would blackmail her zero exclaimed that he wouldn't do something so cowardly and in the first place hated amoris so much that he didn't want anything to do with her and never wanted to see

her again amoris then asked if zero also didn't want to have anything to do with Grace she Claimed her sister had changed because of zero and as the older sister amoris had the duty to show her the right path to take and zero was an obstacle to that zero concluded that amoris was just a ciscon Who couldn't be honest with herself and would throw meaningless Tantrums amoris got pissed off and planned to kill zero zero shared how he had done the same thing to his little sister and got hated for it he assumed amorus really

liked her sister but Instead of getting close their distance kept increasing zero confessed that he had also experienced the same and advised amorus to keep her feelings under control or one day grace wouldn't talk to her anymore amoris was shocked since she had done a lot for Grace zero then shared how Grace felt that amorus was hating her amorus was doubtful but she could really feel Grace acting distant zero advised her to think about what Grace really wanted and not to Force her expectations on her he claimed he had read it in a book and

the gullible amoris believed him zero continued pushing and advised amorus to be more honest however he knew amorus would nag Grace again if they were left alone so he suggested joining in to help the Two Sisters get closer together like best friends amoris agreed that his idea might work since things were now okay zero tried to excuse himself out of the room however amorous grabed his hair Again and recalled that zero had seen her acting silly minutes ago as thanks for Zero's advice amorus promised to offer flowers by his gravestone zero exclaimed that he wouldn't

say anything to Grace since he didn't have the intention in the first place he told amoris how Grace had helped him a lot and he wanted to pay that back by making the sisters get closer than before he claimed he would also offer a hand to amoris anytime she needed he then Excused himself out and confessed that he liked amaris's side of trying to get closer to Grace since he himself had already given up on her little sister amor was left blushing and flustered and zero finally managed to escape his deathbed he realized amoris was

not a bad person at all but she still pissed him off as he made his way to his room he noticed a familiar Fire Spirit zero then spotted Grace on the nearby balcony he surprised her and Grace asked him not To do it again he inquired about what she was doing and Grace shared that she wanted to feel the evening wind and watch the Stars she confessed that she now felt refreshed thanks to zero zero claimed that he had only lost his temper and said bad things however Grace disagreed and swore to to try harder

despite knowing it was impossible at the moment she wanted to gain her father's acknowledgement no matter what and when her goal was to become a person whom People could trust nevertheless in her current situation she could be rejected by everyone and be exiled zero apologized believing it was his fault Grace laughed it off and claimed she didn't mind at all zero insisted that it was entirely his fault Grace then asked if zero would take responsibility if she got exiled she had intended it as a joke but zero instantly agreed Grace screamed as she blushed zero

assured her that he could help her find a job and a place to Live on her own if that were the case however Grace looked disappointed which dampened Zero's Spirits Grace then agreed that she could manage on her own if she got exiled and wondered what would happen to zero zero gripped his fist and Grace apologized for asking something weird zero had never thought about that before as people usually avoided him he was always alone and had been happy when Grace told him that she wanted to stay with him zero confessed That he hadn't thought

much about his future as he had only come to the castle to help Grace and didn't have a plan for what to do after that Grace could see how conflicted zero was and gave him a reassuring slap on the back she then suggested going on a journey with her as she might find something along the way she claimed that zero would also find something for himself she proposed making it Zero's Journey's purpose to meet and befriend people zero was Surprised and smiled finding Grace's suggestion interesting that was something he had wanted to do in his

previous life but had given up on he thanked Grace for the suggestion after meeting the little ones Grace and AR ruji zero realized that it wasn't bad to be friends with many more people in this world however solving Grace's problem came first the two soon met with the king who decided to overlook the riot that zero and Grace had caused despite This the two looked worried for some reason the king then shared that he and the ministers needed to confirm if Grace had really contracted with a spirit they decided to give Grace a quest zero

and the spirits were confused by this decision two months had passed since Zero's reincarnation and his encounter with the little ones he was initially fine with helping Grace on her Quest and Amorous joining their party didn't phase him either however he voiced his Concerns about their flashy Carriage which he believed would attract unwanted attention from enemies amoris retorted calling him an idiot and reminded him that as royalty they were traveling for the sake of the people and therefore wouldn't be attacked Grace concurred citing their respected royal family and the lack of rebels in the Kingdom

zero turned to Lily asking if she had ever escorted a mission like this before but the petite maid gave him the cold Shoulder zer worries about potential attackers spotting their ostentatious Carriage only grew but the siblings dismissed his concerns claiming that no one would dare challenge them in a brief flashback the minister explained the details of Grace's quest to test her abilities based on her progress and results her mission was to investigate and subjugate the nest of lizard men in the village located east of the kingdom when Grace inquired about the number of Monsters and

the time limit for her Quest the minister curtly told her to read the document the journey began without a hitch but aera soon ruined the Atmosphere by behaving like a spoiled royalty in the wilderness zero was taken aback by her presence and couldn't help but view her as useless to make matters worse Lily was also giving him a hard time seemingly hoping he would get himself killed when Lily told him to follow her zero was skeptical but she Revealed that she had something important to discuss she chastised him for not understanding that she wouldn't behave

poorly in front of those she served the royal sisters Lily then shared a crucial piece of information that there were people opposed to the Royal family just as zero had suspected he asked if there were enemy countries involved but Lily warned him that there were also enemies within their own ranks Zero's initial concerns about the Carriage were proven correct and he couldn't believe Lily hadn't done anything to address the issue Lily claimed that she couldn't go against those she served leaving zero frustrated and worried about their situation however it would have been bad if they

had continued to travel to the next Village without a solid plan and zero had suggested a camouflage zero had noticed some of the little spirits suggesting something and had decided to Leave things to them he asked Lily to leave the carriage to him since he had some powerful allies to help despite feeling doubtful Lily had left the task to zero zero had then asked the little spirits to do their thing the next morning their Journey continued and Lily couldn't believe what she was seeing Zero looked worried despite the spirits looking proud Lily exclaimed that changing

the appearance of the carriage overnight was impossible zero had agreed That it was physically impossible he was already glad that the blockhead princesses didn't really mind the carriage New Look the group had soon reached the village but after talking to the Village Chief they hadn't been able to gain any new information they only knew that there was a cave 1 hour away from the village that was reported to be the nest of the lizard men zero had suggested scouting the area first suddenly amoris had told him to wait Insisting she was the leader since she

was the most experienced among them zero couldn't believe amoris was fussing over being the leader Lily had then reminded amoris that the quest was given to grace and grace would be considered the leader of the group The gullible sisan had quickly agreed Grace had then heeded Zero's advice and the group had headed straight to the mountains they soon discovered the cave and a bonfire in front of it however that wasn't enough Information to determine the number of Monsters the three girls had quickly come out of the bushes ready to charge forward zero had asked them

to wait and amoris had wondered if zero was getting scared zero had felt frustrated because of these two blockheaded sisters Grace had reminded him how zero had claimed that in a fight one should strike first zero had run out of patience and scolded them asking them to use their heads a little he had reminded them that they Didn't know how many enemies there were assuming there were only 10 or so amoris had confidently divided the lizard men to be subjugated among them and called it a perfect plan zero and the spirits couldn't believe what they

were hearing zero had called them a lost cause not considering the real number of monsters to confront and had talked to the spirits for consolation amoris had wondered why zero was talking to himself amaris's dumbness had made zero forget That the girls couldn't see see the little Spirits at that moment zero had realized something and the girls were left confused for the time being he had suggested going back to the Village to form a plan the leader Grace had agreed despite looking confused Lily had followed What Grace said but amoris had asked why she should

listen to someone like zero zero had then given the girls his usual scary glare and they had fallen silent he had asked them one more Time to return to the village and the girls hadn't hesitated to agree as they returned to the Village zero inquired about the others capabilities Grace proudly confirmed that she wielded a staff as her weapon could cast Firebase spells and had formed a contract with one Spirit Lily claimed she could control ice and had one contracted Spirit zero asked her to demonstrate her ice magic and she quickly obliged firing a blast

of ice towards him intentionally Missing the shot she apologized feigning a slipped hand zero however could clearly see that Lily was out to eliminate him next zero asked amoris about her abilities the princess Knight boasted that she could harness lightning magic and wielded a sword forged from Pure mithil she also showcased her mithil armor claiming it was reserved for the chosen ones zero played along marveling at her impressive gear amorus wondered if zero coveted something made Of mithil assuming he was envious of her equipment zero casually revealed that his pipe was also crafted from mithril

and proudly displayed it amorus was skeptical taking the pipe and striking it with her mithril sword seeing that it remained undamaged amorus was stunned the pipe's quality surpassed her own mithril gear both amoris and Lily suspected that zero had stolen it from somewhere zero explained that an old man he had saved had crafted it and asked Them to trust him a little amoris sought confirmation from grace who vouched for Zero's story and finally amoris believed him just then the little ones burst through the window reporting their findings to zero he devised a plan to send

the spirits on a reconnaissance mission exploiting the opponent's weakness since only he could see them the girls watched as zero seemingly conversed with himself again but Grace had an inkling about his behavior zero Shared the Intel he had gathered about their enemy he informed the girls that there was only one path in the cave and that 15 lizard men were lounging inside Lily questioned The credibility of Zero's information worried that such baseless claims could jeopardize Grace's crucial Quest zero fabricated a story claiming he had spoken to some of the villagers amoris and Lily were doubtful

knowing that no one would willingly converse With zero with his scary face Grace exclaimed that Zero's skill was a Divine gift capable of gathering information and having saved them numerous times before zero played along and amaris asked again if it was true Grace confirmed it and amaris eventually believed her zero was relieved that amaris was gullible but Lily still looked at him with skepticism with a stutter zero spoke about how he wasn't trustworthy but his only concern was Everyone's safety he claimed he was worried about amoris and Lily and his words made Lily's face flush

with embarrassment amoris on the other hand looked surprised Grace asked about her own safety but zero ignored her Amorous being an airhead took Zero's words as a friendly gesture while Lily thought otherwise Grace still protesting being left out fell silent as zero patted her head he thanked her for backing him up and his Close sweaty face and nickname made Grace blush she exclaimed that she didn't like her nickname and amoris pointed out hers too zero told the sisters to shut up and asked them to continue planning the group soon returned to the cave entrance upon

seeing the lizard men For the First Time Zero recalled playing Pokémon Lily wondered if zero had never seen a lizard man before zero couldn't answer that question and instead pointed out that The lizard men were about to sleep since their bonfire had just died down he then told the sisters it was time to move but discovered them sleeping instead he smacked the two girls to wake them up and they called him cruel zero scolded them for sleeping when they were preparing to assault the lizard men two Spirits then approached and reported that the lizard men

had already fallen asleep the first part of their plan was to create a massive puddle using Lily's Ice magic which would be melted by Grace's fire to lure out the monsters the second part involved using amaris's lightning magic to electrocute the lizard men as soon as they stepped on the puddle zero warned the girls not to step on the puddle by mistake the third part of the plan would involve zero and amoris with instructions for grace and Lily to shoot the lizard men with magic when they came close to the puddle amoris then suggested creating

an ice Wall using Lily's magic to group the lizard men together allowing amoris and zero to focus on the melee fight while the other two remained at a safe distance zero was speechless not expecting amorus to come up with a decent plan with Lily's Final Touch the lizard men's subjugation Quest had begun seeing everyone in position made zero glad he announced that it was time to start zero created loud noises using a frying pan and an earth spirit's head Amoris asked where the pan had even come from zero told them to focus and look as

the lizard men were emerging enraged Grace was taken aback and started firing Fireballs towards the monsters zero couldn't believe Grace had no self-control a fireball then flew towards zero and he deafly deflected it with his mithril pipe as if playing baseball the fireball then homered towards the lizard men and zero felt proud amorus called it Reckless but it Was impressive that zero could deflect magic like that zero told her to shut up and instructed her that it was her turn amorus then pulled out her sword and stabbed it into the ground electricity crawled across the

area zero told her to control herself however amorus went overboard and everyone was left stunned as the whole place flashed a bright light in the middle of the night a minute later the aftermath revealed a dried up puddle and a serving of dozens Of fried lizard men cooked to Perfection zero complained about amaris's actions but the princess pointed out that the monsters had been annihilated in the end zero then counted the dead lizard men and only came up with 10 of them Grace then told zero to watch out as a huge Fireball was flying toward

him Grace then pushed zero to the side and received a frontal attack recalling Grace's smile zero grabbed his mithil pipe and ran towards the cave amoris Told him to stop since Grace was fine but zero didn't listen amorus then left Grace to Lily's care and chased after zero zero couldn't help but curse at Grace's actions thinking she should still receive the praise she wanted from her father he felt stupid and started cursing himself then the lizard men in front of him a huge lizard man tried to chop him down and zero barely dodged it he

claimed he didn't feel any pain and fought back however the lizard man still Stood tall zero got pissed off and kicked it down looking down on the lizard man like a thug just then amorus told him to move aside and activated her lightning magic her face filled with anger zero tried to warn her about using such magic inside the cave but amorus didn't listen for the second time and Unleashed her magic attack zero couldn't do anything about it Lily heard the explosion that happened inside the cave inside amoris looked proud but zero was Totally pissed

off by her recklessness he explained that using such an attack would make the cave collapse of course amorus didn't know that zero then started panicking as the cave began to crumble however he was distracted by the dead lizard man turning into an egg he picked it up and wondered what it was amorus asked what he was doing and told zero to run fortunately the two were able to escape the cave amoris claimed it hadn't collapsed at all and zero was Only overthinking right after she said that the cave broke down and sealed the entrance worried

for Grace zero then checked if she was fine he discovered Grace who was trembling and looking shocked she stuttered her words as she asked why the two of them were holding hands the two didn't even know they were holding each other's hands The Legal Wife asked what was happening between the two amoris spoke up and explained what had happened to Grace zero and the Spirits wondered why Grace was acting like that Grace found it unfair that her sister held hands with someone when she hadn't yet zero didn't understand why the two were bickering but he

was glad that all was well however for some reason the spirits looked worried about something recalling how Grace had gotten hit by a big Fireball he asked if she was okay grace was fine except for some small Burns but she was more concerned about Zero's wound on his face zero Claimed it was only a scratch and wanted to know how Grace had still managed to escape unscathed Grace explained that a fire magic user had high resistance against fire she wondered if zero was mad at her zero was not but he asked her to tell him

next time if she was planning to do something Reckless he then casually patted her head and genuinely thanked her amoris and Lily looked worried by this scene just then zero recall picking up something near The lizard man's corpse and asked what it was omus told him to stop holding it and slapped Zero's arm zero asked what her problem was amoris then asked if zero was not feeling well or something zero was fine though which made amorus confused Grace asked what the stone was and amorus asked her not to touch it angered and doubtful amoris asked

why zero had the stone with him and if he was related to the spirit Liberation troop zero looked confused hearing the Word Liberation when the little ones were freely living on their own however the spirits gave him concerned looks realizing that there was something wrong with the stone amorus demanded answers as she Drew her sword Grace asked her to calm down but amoris was on high alert since in the first place they didn't know anything about zero before meeting him zero could agree to that he then claimed he was not their enemy and he was

not a part of any Liberation troop Or something amoris still doubted him since he was trying to give her the stone zero didn't care if she didn't believe him but as he said he had found the Stone near the dead lizard man and if his purpose was to give it to Grace then he should have done it a long time ago he didn't even know the Liberation troop since it hadn't been long since he arrived Grace tried to stop him from Talking further zero felt bad for Grace since he wanted to hide his background Just

when he tried to say something zero started sweating and feeling nervous he then noticed Grace's worried face and amaris's hateful look he realized that he didn't want to be hated he was planning to tell amoris and Lily about his background so he could close the distance between them he laughed recalling how in his past life he was always putting up a tough front amoris asked why he was laughing zero then concluded that it would be dangerous to Touch the stone however he confessed that he really didn't know what it was and it was only a

short time since he had met Grace and learned about the world amoris asked what he was talking about zero then confessed that he was from another world Grace looked concerned about this Revelation however amorus did not buy his reason and punched Zero's lights out she had trusted him for a while but she couldn't believe zero would come up with such an Excuse then pulled out his Mythril pipe to fight back but Grace stopped them from going further the two instructed her to move aside Grace stuttered her words but threatened them that she would hate them

both if they fought zero couldn't believe Grace was saying such things but amorus immediately backed off Grace claimed that zero was telling the truth amoris claimed she trusted Grace but there was no reason to believe zero in the first place Grace then shared how Zero didn't know about magic and Spirits in the beginning despite saving a royalty zero hadn't asked for anything as a reward and he had even joined a quest that was totally unrelated to him she claimed that zero would have done something to her already if he had plans to trick her zero

claimed one more time that he didn't have such thoughts moreover Grace pointed out how unskillful zero was Zero got pissed off by her words on top of That Lily and amaris gave him a teasing look what made it worse were the spirit's agreement since Grace had already said a lot of words amorus decided to trust zero in the meantime every one calmed down and zero asked what the stone was amaris confessed that she also didn't know much she had heard that there were people claiming that Spirits were higher life forms of their world and didn't

exist to be controlled by humans hence be liberated they Believed that the use of spirits would bring chaos to the world the spirits looked proud for some reason zero asked what the black stone was and amoris exclaimed that it had some sort of connection to The Liberation troop and was a dangerous object that could suck up its holder's magical power looking worried Grace asked what happened to a person after their magical power got all sucked up amoris claimed they could be stuck in a coma and never wake up Lily Then wondered why zero was still

fine despite holding the stone amoris also didn't know which was why she doubted him she then asked Lily and Grace to lightly touch the stone with their fingertips the two touched the stone and quickly felt how their magical power got taken away zero then casually picked it up he claimed it felt weird but nothing was happening to him Lily wondered if it only affected the residents of their world Grace then realized something and Amaris asked what it was Grace was just assuming but she felt awkward to say it zero claimed it was fine to say

anything since he had already confessed that he was an otherworlder Grace recalled that zero couldn't use magic at all Lily and amoris were shocked since using magic was a common sense for them amoris found it totally impossible zero reminded her that seeing someone from another world was already unbelievable Grace didn't really have any proof but it was the Only reason she could think of zero asked her to be blunt she claimed it was not that zero couldn't use magic but didn't have magical power in the first Place both zero and amaris were shocked and their

screams resounded in the dark Forest amaris asked how that could be possible zero then shared how his world didn't have magic users anyway and wondered if that was the case knowing that a magicless world existed Lily couldn't help but agree with Grace's Guess zero didn't really care about not using magic since he didn't use it in the first place Amis then asked how zero could go on with his daily life like starting a fire and drinking water but zero had the most casual and magicless solutions he told her shut up already and pinched her cheeks

seeing the Too Close made Grace worry about her position zero agreed that being unable to use magic was inconvenient but he didn't care since even the spirits Couldn't use magic amoris smacked his head and reminded him that he was not a spirit zero felt that amoris didn't hold back her strength he then recalled amoris claiming there was no one opposing the royal family the three girls flinched and amorus sighed since there was no point in keeping it a secret she confirmed that there were organizations opposing the royal family and claimed it was confidential information that

someone like her the Vice captain of the royal Knights would know was surprised that amoris was not the simple idiot he thought he knew Lily then recalled the opposing Force inside the kingdom and asked amoris about the situation amoris shared that aside from the spirit Liberation troop there were more forces that didn't like the royal family aside from that monsters started becoming more active within the Kingdom's vicinity there was nothing to worry about but amoris wanted to say Something more zero then assumed that the monsters used not to attack humans before amoris then realized zero

was From Another World After All amoris gave up doubting him and continued explaining humans and monsters had always been on bad terms but monsters would only attack when humans entered their territory and didn't usually come to attack since they had at least the sense to avoid danger however they had been seen around human Villages lately and there were reports Of people getting attacked zero recalled how Grace was chased by goblins earlier zero then wondered if the Black Rock had something to do with it amoris didn't know since there were no reports of monsters carrying the

rock around if they were carrying it around in the first place amorus wondered why the monsters were still fine and their magical powers were not sucked out Grace agreed since a mere tap felt like a lot of magical power was sucked away Everyone fell silent since no one had any idea at all zero then asked the spirits if they knew anything based on the little ones reactions zero realized they knew but somehow they looked like they didn't want to talk about it zero forgot about it and suggested they return to the Village first and get

the carriage to head back home Grace agreed that worrying wouldn't help them at all the group soon returned to the village and discovered it was noisy despite Being early in the morning Grace assumed that the villagers were celebrating the success of her Quest amoris told them to hide in the nearby bushes since she was having a bad feeling they then sneaked around near the village Chief's house and discovered hooded individuals looking for their group upon closer inspection amoris realized the strange people were from the spirit Liberation troop she assumed she and Grace were their targets

and wondered why they knew They were in the village zero reminded them how they set off with a flashy looking Carriage Lily asked what to do and amarus decided to annihilate them zero angrily asked them to wait Deja Vu zero reminded them that they didn't know how many enemies were out there and Grace's and Lily's magic powers had just been sucked away he also pointed out that amoris could cause innocent casualties if she used her magic he told them to keep out of sight until they Reached the carriage zero was mad since striking first was

his Forte and the girls kept stealing the Thunder From Him zero then asked Lily if they could set out immediately after riding the carriage Lily claimed the fog would hinder them and asked him to protect the princesses zero apologized for making Lily do the work despite being tired Zero's worrisome words made Lily blush and she tangibly told him to get on already zero then reminded the Blockheaded sisters to be quiet and not dare to do anything the sisters were dead scared by his scary face and agreed The Carriage then paused and zero asked what was

wrong Lily could see some of the enemies guarding the entrance zero wondered if they should abandon the carriage and make make a run Lily asked where the princesses were and zero assured her that the two were behaving well zero told Lily to continue as he had a plan the enemies then noticed the Carriage and told them to stop the sisters and zero held their breaths Lily shared how they were on their way back to the capital the enemy doubted her words and Lily asked her master what to do zero was confused and opened the window

showing her master which turned out to be zero zero then gave them a glare and the enemies freaked out calling him an ogre zero was offended and Lilia apologized for the short temper of her master she shared how they Visited the nearby hot springs and were now on their way back to the capital the enemy doubted there were only two of them Lily then leaned forward and whispered she shared how her master couldn't get along with others since he looked like that the enemy surprisingly agreed zero couldn't help but feel pissed off the enemies agreed

to let the worn outl looking Carriage pass by since the one they were supposed to stop was one from the royalty anyway the group Managed to fool the enemies but zero was not happy about what just happened Lily was glad that the plan worked and teasingly asked zero what was wrong she sarcastically called him Master again Grace and amoris praised both Lily and zero but also joined in to teas zero about his one minute long Master status zero exploded and told them to hurry up to the capital already the girls couldn't help but laugh and

continued teasing him zero wondered why the spirit Liberation troop was looking for the Sisters amoris could only assume that they were planning to subvert them that was quite a statement but amoris claimed it was only one of the possibilities since at that time there existed people who could maintain their country without spirits and those who wanted to liberate the spirits if they were captured and taken as hostages the enemies would demand The Liberation of spirits in exchange for their lives Grace suddenly Felt unsettled and asked Lily to hurry so they could immediately report to their

father zero realized how serious their situation was and noticed Grace's worried expression zero then assumed something as soon as they arrived back at the capital a loud bearded man welcomed them back amoris greeted gumas the cap of the royal Knights gas was glad to see grace doing well he then wondered if the young man with them was the one from the rumors amorus Introduced zero to him and claimed they wouldn't be acquaintances for long zero agreed with her words since he didn't want to be close to her either just when amorus exploded with anger gas's

loud laughter overpowered her and gave zero smacks on his back he confirmed that zero was definitely the same guy the king had described zero got mad and called gumas a gorilla Grace was taken aback by Zero's disrespectful nickname toward the captain of the shaval order Of the country gas didn't mind at all and called zero interesting people usually got scared in front of him but zero was different he then invited zero to join the shial r order but zero immediately refused he claimed he didn't want to join such a stiff group gas just laughed it

off and hoped they could meet again soon he was glad to have met zero and zero felt the same he hoped gas would keep his distance but he could sense that he was not a bad person Amoris then asked gas for a talk and shared that it would be about the spirit Liberation Troop they had encountered recently gas asked what she meant by that she reported that the spirit Liberation troops might have followed them to the Eastern Village it was thanks to Lily that they had managed to avoid any problems gas then assumed that their

information had gotten leaked he then suggested they all meet the king already in the throne room the king Commended everyone for completing the quest everyone except for zero knelt in respect amoris tried to scold him but the King was totally fine with it he then asked Grace for her report confidently Grace announced that the quest was complete completed and the lizard men had been subjugated successfully everyone was impressed but Grace claimed she had other concerns in mind the king asked what it was she claimed it would be better if her sister The vice captain of

the shial order explained things the king soon learned about the Black Rock and the spirit Liberation troop amoris claimed there might be a connection between the two the minister concluded that it was alarming news the king then ordered Grace to submit a report as soon as possible and asked amoris to help her he told them to rest and claimed a room was already prepared for the guest too zero gave him a frustrating glare seeing that The king hadn't said anything fatherly to Grace he was getting pissed off surprisingly the king then casually called Grace and

commended her for doing well for the sake of the people Grace was taken aback and thanked her father for his words zero was glad that even the stiff King could actually act like a father he and the spirits were glad for Grace on the way back to their rooms zero silently stared at the girls he realized that the blockhead sisters were Thinking a lot about the future especially for the sake of their people he just realized that the two were really royalties he then froze as he asked himself what to do he wondered what he

should do somehow Lily could feel something off about zero he wondered if he should move from one place to another he recalled Grace wanting to join him and that didn't sound like a bad idea however he couldn't keep being on the Move forever Despite knowing that zero kept trying to look away from that Grace then called out to zero and asked if he was listening to her zero asked what she was talking about emoris called him a blockhead for not listening the two then started arguing Grace asked them to stop fighting and making scary faces

zero then asked what it was and Grace asked what they should do next she still needed to write a report about the Black Rock and the spirit Liberation troop she Claimed she wouldn't be able to leave the castle for a while and zero agreed since it was a serious National Affair for them Grace didn't mind the work but she was worried about her promise with zero to travel together since it might get delayed due to her work zero smiled it was just a verbal promise but Grace was taking it seriously zero patted Grace's head and

told her not to worry about it Grace exclaimed that she should she felt bad that zero would be locked Inside the castle because of her this was news to zero zero asked what she was talking about Grace reminded him that he should help her with the related Affairs he imagined being a scholar inside the castle and Grace asked what the confused face he was showing was about she asked if zero was planning to leave her and travel alone on his own zero claimed he hadn't thought that far yet and pointed out that it would be

weird for him to work in the castle Grace exclaimed that It was not weird at all zero claimed claimed he couldn't take advantage of her Hospitality but Grace didn't mind at all zero claimed he would just hinder her but Grace angrily told him that it was fine since they made a promise together zero tried to ask amoris for help but the sister pointed out that zero was someone mysterious and dangerous to let him run loose she claimed they didn't have a choice zero was surprised that amoris was not Chasing him out like before amorus then

suggested she supervised zero while he was in the castle Grace flinched with a scary tone she told amoris that zero was hers and it was obvious that she would be the one to look after him omis quickly gave up but refused to let the two travel together afterward Grace claimed she was not asking for her sister's approval this side of Grace was totally scaring off amoris and the spirits Grace then whispered in amaris's Ear telling her that zero was the type of person they needed to keep a tight hold on or else he would misunderstand

and go somewhere else by himself she claimed there was no way for her to let zero run away and claimed she would not lose to amoris She also asked if Lily was fine with it Lily didn't even dare to disagree zero who didn't have any idea about the girl's silent battle suddenly felt cold Grace then told zero to take his time to rest zero wondered If he could zero then got into his room and while the spirits were playing around he shared his thoughts with the little ones despite Grace's words zero didn't feel like he

deserved to stay in the castle any longer since it was currently an important period of time for her to get recognized he asked what the spirits were thinking but it seemed like they didn't understand Zero's sentiments suddenly Lily entered the room with some sweets zero then asked Asked why she came over since he knew bringing the sweets over was just an excuse Lily then asked what zero would do next even though they knew Grace wanted to keep him beside her zero then confessed that he couldn't go along with what Grace wanted since nothing good could

come from having a guy like him close to her Lily was surprised and zero asked why she was surprised Lily claimed she was just relieved that zero understood the situation she could see That zero was not a bad person at all and thanked him for the effort of helping Grace she claimed leaving the castle would also be better for zero sake she claimed there was something weird with the capital and zero was someone unique and for sure he would get involved one way or another zero agreed since he was otherworlder after all Lily exclaimed that

was not only the case she knew that zero could see the spirits she knew that after seeing him talk to Himself and doing weird things he claimed it was only amoris who hadn't noticed it so far zero then asked why it was better for him to leave the castle Lily then assumed that the spirit Liberation troop was lurking inside the castle zero kind of agreed since they went directly to the Eastern Village to look for them Lily then assumed they had connections to important figures of the country and if they learned about Zero's abilities they

would stop at nothing to Get it zero agreed that his ability was unique and his existence might get targeted however he worried that Grace would be in more danger Lily was surprised and zero wondered what was wrong Lily claimed she didn't expect zero to easily believe her zero then called her an idiot and flicked her forehead he claimed if he didn't believe her then who would he believe in this World on top of that he knew that Lily's loyalty toward Grace was genuine Lily Then confessed that just like Grace she wanted zero to stay in

the castle since he was her first Ally aside from her and amoris she apologized to zero but he was fine with it since he also didn't want to put any of them in danger zero started patting Lily's head and the maid asked him to stop it zero then decided to pack up his things so he could leave early at dawn at dawn zero was glad Lily helped him sneak out of the castle he thanked her and Lily asked him to be Careful of the spirit Liberation Troop zero claimed he knew that already and walked away

while cursing her out one last time Lily blushed and retorted an insult back zero walked quite a distance and wondered what he should do next he asked suggestions from the little ones but discovered that their number had increased currently Zero's worries were related to the little ones the Black Rock and the spirit Liberation troop he also needed to know more about the world And worry about himself he didn't want to get involved with the spirit Liberation troop after seeing the little ones worried faces zero was not sure if he could do anything by himself in

this world but he must do something for those who put their trust in him a spirit then gave him a pat and zero realized that he was not alone he decided not to worry further and for now decided to go to the nearest Village it wasn't long ago that zero arrived in this world and met the Little ones and other people currently he was at aruji asking if his cooking was good zero had met him again after returning to Katt town he claimed the food was good but a bit lacking after the meal the two

had hot chocolate and aruji asked why zero had come alone without the red-haired Missy zer Zer froze for a moment then recalled Grace being excited about adventuring together zero told aruji that he had left Grace behind in the Royal Capital aruji was Shocked and concluded that zero had fought with his wife zero exclaimed that Grace was not his wife aruji was simply surprised that zero had returned to him alone he thought he had seen a ghost or something when zero appeared outside his window he honestly thought he was ascending to Heaven at that time zero

then shared how he wanted to find something but lacked acquaintances to ask uji didn't know how an old man like him could help but he offered his Assistance zero was glad and asked aruji if he knew about the black egg-shaped Stone unfortunately aruji didn't have any idea about it zero then assumed that aruji didn't know about the spirit Liberation troop either aruji explained that it was something he knew zero asked if he was serious aruji claimed they were his normal customers buying a lot of weapons from him before zero couldn't believe aruji had sold weapons

to a dangerous group aruji looked confused Saying he only knew that the group wanted to liberate the spirits zero suddenly felt a contradicting feeling he had seen a glimpse of them and they all looked suspicious wearing black robes he didn't really know if they were going to kidnap the blockheaded sisters he wondered if amoris was lying to him he still wanted to trust her and her words aruji then shared how destructive a weapon can be depending on the user and how they use it he reminded zero that he Had also given him a weapon zero

wondered what aruji was implying aruji asked if the spirit Liberation troop really wanted to hurt people for aruji it wasn't about supporting the group but he agreed that people could still live without the spirits in the world coming from a world without spirits zero thought that people could live properly without magic it was his first time meeting someone with the same mentality and he wondered if the spirit Liberation Troop shared the same views zero got confused thinking of the spirit Liberation troop as the good guys uji called him weird saying that most people would immediately

reject the idea of liberating the spirits but zero was someone who contemplated it zero claimed that a lot of things had happened uji was interested in his story but he shared that he didn't know if the kingdom or the spirit Liberation troop was right or wrong he advised zero to Throw away his prejudices about Good and Evil and decide for himself after observing everything with his own eyes zero recalled that most people in this world agreed with the kingdom and only a few shared the spirit Liberation troops views zero agreed that he wouldn't understand anything

right now and decided to start figuring out what to do next he asked aruji if he knew anything else about the spirit Liberation troop aruji recalled the group mentioning the Great spirits zero asked for further details but aruji didn't know anything beyond blacksmithing zero jokingly called aruji a useless Old Man Zero set off in the morning bidding farewell to aruji he decided to return to the forest with the little ones first and then visit the nearby Villages and towns to gather information after that zero could decide what to do on his own it didn't take

long for him and the spirits to return to their home zero enjoyed the Clean Air and comfortable atmosphere since normal people couldn't locate the forest there was nothing to worry about he asked the little ones if anything had changed in the forest someone replied that there was was and zero asked them to lead the way however instead of the usual little ones a bearded old man appeared the old man claimed that the only difference was his presence zero got angry and started hitting the bearded old man thinking he was a Pervert trying to harm the

spirits the bearded old man was in pain and the little ones were getting worried zero continued hitting him until the bearded old man introduced himself as the great spirit of Earth the little ones with the earth a tribute then tended to the bearded Old Man Zero was confused hearing something he had just learned from aruji the great spirit of Earth asked zero to calm down but zero continued to doubt him and asked for Proof the great spirit suggested that zero compare his appearance to that of the little ones zero stared at both the great spirit

of Earth who looked like a familiar rock type Pokémon and an Earth Spirit and the great spirit pointed out their similarities however zero was not convinced and gave him another smack exclaiming that they were not alike the little ones intervened asking zero to stop and he complied the great spirit was relieved and zero warned him not to Lie zero then asked the great spirit of Earth to provide actual proof of his identity the great spirit reminded zero that they were currently in the spirit's Forest a place that no human could enter zero smacked him again

pointing out that he was human himself the great spirit exclaimed that there was a reason why zero could enter the forest and zero was taken aback that the great spirit knew his name the great spirit confirmed that he had known about zero since he started Living in the forest zero couldn't help but feel wary about the old man claiming to be the great spirit of Earth however he noticed the resemblance between the little ones and the Old Man Zero asked why a human like him could enter the spirit's Forest the great spirit claimed that zero

was different and that even zero didn't know why only he could see the spirits zero attributed it to the skill God had given him but the great spirit disagreed saying that the skill's Purpose was to bring out Zero's true nature and enhance it if zero didn't have the qualities in the first place he wouldn't have receive the skill zero realized that he must have had the trait to be liked by the spirits from the start the great spirit agreed and zero was shocked that his mind had been read the great spirit claimed that it was

not hard to read a human's heart as a great spirit zero thought of him as gross and the great spirit became depressed having Read Zero's thoughts zero then asked what the great spirit of Earth wanted from him the great spirit claimed that it was Zero who needed something from him instead zero doubted this but started thinking about the spirit Liberation troop the black stone and other things on his mind seeing the great spirit of Earth show up zero assumed that he knew something and decided deed to ask him thoroughly the great spirit teasingly asked him

to Start right away Zero's questions began with the identity of the spirits the great spirit of Earth explained that Spirits were creatures necessary for the existence of the world as they gave birth to Mana zero was confused as this differed from what he had heard before the great spirit explained that magic couldn't be used without mana and that the absence of spirits would mean the absence of magic however zero recalled Grace using magic without a spirit Contract the great spirit hoped zero understood something by now the great spirit pointed out that it was all thanks

to the spirits that Mana existed in the world and if they disappeared Mana would run dry and no one would be able to use magic zero could understand that the great spirit then mentioned that the world's Mana was currently in disarray and would soon disappear zero was shocked and asked him to slow down it was like a huge bomb had dropped on Zero learning that the world was in disarray the great spirit suggested zero should figure it out by himself zero angrily told him not to kid with him and assumed that even the great spirit

didn't know why the great spirit of Earth then instructed zero to meet the other great spirits and he would learn about the black stone and the spirit Liberation troops Goal Zero was taken aback that the Shady great spirit even knew about those two topics the great Spirit also pointed out how zero would learn who and what he really was Zero was taken aback and wondered what the great spirit of Earth was talking about the great spirit already knew that zero kept thinking about why he was different from other humans he claimed zero would fully understand

soon and hoped zero could decide things for himself he then touched Zero's mithil pipe and the weapon suddenly lit up a bead appeared along with three more blank spots zero Asked what it was the great spirit of Earth then shared that to save the spirits zero should meet the other great spirits he shared the location of the rest of the great spirits the great spirit of fire in the South the great spirit of wind in the west and the great spirit of water in the North after getting their powers zero should offer his weapon to

the altar confused zero asked what the altar was the power of the great spirits and his words about Saving the spirits however the great spirit of Earth had already started disappearing with a smile totally ignoring Zero's questions zero exclaimed that they were not done talking the great spirit of Earth hoped zero understood what he shared and reminded him to meet the other great spirits he wanted zero to make a decision after he learned something about himself zero told him to stop disappearing the great spirit of Earth left hoping they would Meet again soon a lot

of questions flooded Zero's thoughts he wondered if the self-proclaimed go had some secret being kept away from him he wondered why the little ones needed some saving zero then wrote down a list of objectives because of the great spirit of Earth his list had become longer it was full of things that zero didn't know and after a night of thinking he realized there were more things he needed to find out amaris's parting gifts a map and a pen Proved to be useful now since his current location was in the Southeast and recalling that the great

spirit of Earth was from the East zero decided to go to the South where it was relatively close after a day in the Forest he considered home it was time for zero to set out again however along the way he heard a familiar scream he sensed a feeling of deja vu hearing someone ask for help yes it was Grace once again Grace noticed Zero's scary glare and Called him a monster however she quickly recognized him and asked him not to give her that glare she hid behind him asking to be saved goblins then appeared and

zero couldn't help but recall how useless Grace was he scolded her knowing that she had already powered up her magic since Contracting a spirit Grace claimed she had had already burned most of them to dust but had ended up using most of her Mana pool she tried to make an excuse by acting cute but zero was Not buying it Grace apologized in the end Grace then went back to the main concern and asked if they should run away zero refused saying he would happily beat down the Goblins Grace called him a muscle brain zero charged

toward the Goblins exclaiming that he didn't want to hear such words From Grace he grabbed the trusty Stone axe he had from the start and threw it at one of the Goblins the other goblins were distracted and zero used this chance to Smack one of them with the mithil pipe one tried to crawl away but zero stepped on its leg zero wore a villainous face unlike his status as the main character of this story zero then instructed Grace to provide some support and lifted his bloodied mithril pipe he saw three more goblins left but their

number was somehow scaring him a bit the Goblins noticed zero Flinch and got scared using this chance to overpower him however zero was only acting claiming he would Never be scared of them zero asked Grace to do what she could Grace who had just finished casting fired off Balls of Fire toward the remaining Goblins the Goblins were burned to a crisp and zero noticed One Survivor the poor Goblin would meet its fate in front of the mithil pipe soon after Grace commended their good teamwork zero then pinched her cheeks and asked why she was in

the area Grace complained that her cheeks hurt and Tried to explain that she was trying to chase him zero told her coldly to leave Grace cried and called him cruel zero wondered why a busy princess was out of the castle moreover he assumed Grace knew the reason why he left unannounced in the first place zero then asked how Grace managed to locate him Grace claimed it was all within her calculations zero asked what she even meant by that and wondered if it was fine for her to leave the castle Grace Exclaimed she got the permission

however zero doubted that the king would let Grace go on her own Grace claimed she already got recognized thanks to the lizard men subjugation zero recalled that but he still smelled something fishy going on zero was glad that Grace got the permission to go out and asked her what she would do next Grace happily exclaimed that she would follow zero zero asked if there was anything aside from that but Grace insisted on Following zero and got closer to him zero then pushed her off and complained about how hot it was already due to the weather

Grace exclaimed she would follow zero regardless zero then sighed and claimed they would go meet the great spirit of fire together Grace was glad to hear that she was a part of Zero's Journey however she didn't know anything about the great spirit zero claimed he met a perverted one already he claimed he should meet them regardless Grace Didn't really understand what was happening but as long as zero was with her everything would work out however Grace wondered where the great spirit lived considering that they were going south zero then paused and realized that he had

also no idea where to go he was only told to head south by the great spirit of Earth Grace couldn't believe even zero didn't know zero then claimed they were looking for a forest since one of the great spirits was residing in a Forest he assumed it would be the same case for the others however Grace pointed out that there were no forests in the South since it was full of volcanoes ores and mineral ferals zero was at his Wit's End as he didn't know where to go with no hints at all he then noticed

the little ones and realized they must know something he spread out his map and made the spirits check where they should go the spirits then happily pointed out on the map where to go next Seeing Zero's finger pointing in a specific area Grace screamed in confusion zero was surprised and asked what was wrong with her grace exclaimed that the area was the fuse volcano a dangerous and forbidden Place zero understood and decided to go Grace claimed it was a dangerous place zero exclaimed it was fine and gave Grace a pat on the head he fully
