Little Apostle Chapter 06
The Meaning of "Borrowing Strength"
"It's a Strange way to flying, isn't it?"
"Wafuu~"
Minato and Taro murmured as they watched the flying phoenix.
It wasn't like a normal bird flying. It was hovering inside a nest.
But it wasn't flapping its wings rapidly like how a hummingbird hovering.
It was fluttering gently, floating in the air.
"Maybe because it's a sacred beast?"
"Wafu~"
As Minato and Taro were discussing this, the phoenix descended.
Then, it hovered in front of Minato.
"Kyu~!"
The phoenix thanked Minato and Taro for their help.
"It's okay, don't worry about it."
"Wafu~"
Over these three days, Minato had been gradually understanding what the phoenix was trying to convey.
This was thanks to the effect of his skill "Apostle" and his language comprehension growth.
However, Minato didn't pay too much attention to it.
"Kyuu kyuu!"
"You want to be friends? Sure!"
"Wafu~"
Since both Minato and Taro already considered him as friends, there was no reason to refuse.
"Pyu~"
The phoenix asked Minato to give it a name.
"Indeed, it would be inconvenient without a name. But a name, huh? Taro, do you have any good ideas?"
"Bafu~"
Taro suggested the name of his favorite thing.
"Anpan, huh. But I don't think this little one gives off an anpan vibe."
"Bafu?"
"It doesn't feel like cream bread either, I think."
"Wafu~"
Even though it was rejected, Taro didn't seem to mind, responding with a nonchalant "I see."
It doesn't seem like he was particular about it .
"Pi~"
"Hmm. Well then, how about Pipi? What do you think of Pipi?"
Unfortunately, Minato didn't have a knack for naming.
Pipi name was chosed, Because its chirping sounded like 'Pii pii'.
"Kyu~!"
However Pipi was extremely happy and skillfully flew around the cave.
Afterwards, Minato and the others went out of the cave together to have breakfast.
Today, they decided to catch river fish together.
For Minato and his friends, catching river fish was also a fun activity.
"We caught ten today!"
"Pi~"
Minato and Pipi cooperated to catch two, while Taro caught the remaining eight on his own.
"Wafu~"
"Is that so? I guess I've gotten better at catching fish too"
"Wafu!"
While talking about this, they returned to the front of the cave to cook the fish.
"Watch this!"
"Wafu~"
"Pii~"
"Hmm... Haaah, Faia..!"
While being stared at by Taro and Pipi, Minato put his finger to the tinder and lit it with a cool pose.
—Gooooooo
From Minato's finger, a one-meter diameter pure white fireball shot out and turned the tinder into ashes in an instant.
Minato had intended to produce a small fire as usual, but the firepower was unexpectedly too strong.
"............Wow."
"............Wafuu"
"Pippi! Pii pii pii"
While Minato and Taro were frozen by the sudden turn of events, only Pipi happily frolicked and flew around.
"That's odd?"
"Wafu wafu~"
"Yeah, at times like this, it's the time for Sarakia Tome to shine!"
Minato took out the Sarakia Tome from his bag and opened it.

Minato and Taro were also looking at it together.
"I wonder if I got Flame Immunity and Fire Magic because I made a contract with Pipi."
"Wafu?"
"Pii?"
"Now's the time to research with a book!"
Minato turns the page in the Sarakia Tome to check.

[Contract with Apostles, Spirits, and Sacred Beasts]
Apostles can form contracts with spirits, sacred beasts, etc., who meet the following conditions:
- There is a trusting relationship.
- Both parties wish to form a contract with each other.
Contract Method:
- After mutual agreement, the Apostle gives a name to the spirit, sacred beast, etc.
Effects of the Contract:
- The Apostle can acquire some of the skills possessed by the spirit, sacred beast, etc., along with an increase in stats.
- an increase in Dispel and Miasma Purification levels for The spirit, sacred beast, etc.
*By forming a contract, the Apostle can gain powerful abilities.
The acquired skill levels and the amount of stat increase vary depending on compatibility, the strength of the spirit, sacred beast, etc., and their rank.
------------
"Does that mean you get stronger skill levels and stats by contracting with powerful spirits or sacred beasts?"
"Waaau~?"
If the spirit or sacred beast can level up their Dispel skill, there's no reason not to do it.
"It seems like it would be good to keep forming contracts more and more!"
"Wafu~"
"Pii~"
Minato decided in his heart to keep forming contracts and become stronger.
