The boys’ familiar gacha had ended.

The Crown Prince and all of his entourage succeeded in forming contracts and the remaining four boys unfortunately failed to do so.

Even though it could not be helped, the boys drooped their heads in disappointment.

Since the probability was sixty percent, it could be said the results were quite good overall.

Then it moved on to the girls’ gacha.

The girls also formed contracts with familiars at a fairly high rate.

Even so, not everyone was able to succeed.

There were girls who, regrettably, could not form contracts.

While encouraging those girls, Li waited for her turn.

What Li wanted was fluff.

Since the boys had contracted with lower-ranked spirits, they were all humanoid.

That was not a bad thing, of course.

Having cute-looking spirits by one’s side would surely be a joy.

Among the girls as well, there were those who contracted with spirits.

The Saint had also neatly secured a familiar with the appearance of an angel.

Then it was Lady Alberta’s turn.

“I’m going now, Lady Li.”

“I pray for your good fortune, Lady Alberta.”

They exchanged brief words and Li sent Lady Alberta off.

Li prayed that a familiar she could contract with would come to her as well.

Whether that prayer was heard or not was unclear.

Lady Alberta succeeded in forming a contract with a spirit beast.

Like the Heavenly White Wolf Li had been aiming for, it was a white, fluffy rabbit-type familiar.

Its high-pitched cry of “kyu-kyu” was adorable.

It was soft and fluffy.

“I did it.”

Lady Alberta must have taken a liking to her familiar.

She returned with a beaming smile.

“Next. Li Earlychar Karasebed Quewa.”

It was Li’s turn.

Li was not usually the type to get nervous, but this time was different.

She wanted something fluffy and soft.

While picturing Maru-chan, Li stepped into the center of the engraved summoning circle.

She took a deep breath to calm her pounding heart.

Please let Maru-chan come.

“I’m going.”

[Familiar・Summon]

Li’s mana spread throughout the engraved summoning circle.

When the barrier deployed, a faintly beautiful light was released.

The sight of the geometric engraved summoning circle blooming with color like a flower was fantastical.

A magic circle emitting seven-colored light centered on Li.

Bathed in the gentle glow, Li’s hair floated softly.

Everyone present was captivated by the scene.

Light gathered a short distance away from Li, swirling into a vortex.

Then, a single book appeared within the summoning circle.

It was an old book.

A transparent gemstone was embedded in its fully leather-bound cover.

What was peculiar was that chains were wrapped around it, as if to prevent it from opening.

“What… is that?”

The male instructor maximized his vigilance and entered a combat stance together with his familiar.

At the same time, the gemstone emitted rainbow-colored light and the voice of a gruff old man echoed within the barrier.

“I am the Omniversal Archive, Heaven’s Library.”

“An Intelligence Artifact, an intelligent divine relic?”

Intelligent divine relics, Intelligence Artifacts, are fairy-tale items in this world.

No one but naive children would believe they actually exist.

And yet, one had appeared right before their eyes.

Everyone except Li was completely overwhelmed by the mythical sight.

“In exchange for your mana, I shall become your subordinate.”

Upon hearing those words, Li’s eyes flew wide open.

“I demand a redo.”

Li did not waver.
