I Have Awakened, but Mosquitoes Are My Enemies - Chapter 131
‘Let’s just go to 100 million.’
Although it seems a bit excessive.
Still, it’s a judgment that it’s a hundred times better than failing.
‘A combination of 6-star magic stones, cost 100 million won.’
Flash!
[Tries to combine magic stones.]
[100,000,000 won has been consumed.]
[3 5-star magic stones have been combined into 1 6-star magic stones.]
A mysterious radiance arose and was combined into a single magic stone, just as three 5-star magic stones were combined.
‘success!’
Joon-young continued to try another combination, calling for joy.
Also 1 billion.
The result is a success!
With this, you have secured two 6-star magic stones.
“I make a contract with Ignis!”
Junyoung confidently shouted while holding a 6-star magic stone in his hand.
[Ignis, the guardian spirit of the blue moon, is summoned for a contract.]
Hwareuk! flaring-
What appeared was a spirit in the form of a blue flame (★★★★★★)!
“Who woke me up? Are you the one who woke me up?”
It was hard to believe that the voice came from the mouth of a huge flame more than 10 meters high. It was a calm and beautiful voice.
“You must be Ignis. I am Kang Joon-young, Count of the Blue Moon.”
『The Earl of the Blue Moon? That much deserves to wake me up. But what made you wake me up?”
“As the owner of this base, I would like to sign a contract with you as the guardian of the base. Will you make a contract with me?”
Then the blue flames pulsated violently.
It gradually decreased in size and turned into a beautiful female figure approximately two meters tall.
Guardian Contract (1)
『I was sleeping for a really long time until a qualified person called me. Kang Joon-young, Countess of the Blue Moon! If it is you, you are qualified to make a contract with me.”
Spirit Ignis (★★★★★★) was quite favorable.
『But if I become your base guardian, a zone full of heat will appear in some parts of the base. Does it matter though?』
“If it is a hot zone, how big is that area?”
『About a quarter of your base will turn into a lava field. Otherwise, you can make a moat of flame around the base, but in that case, 10,000P of blue moon lord points will be consumed…』
In an instant, Junyoung’s eyes shone.
“If you make a fire moat, does that mean there is no need for a separate fire zone inside the base?”
“Of course. However, if you separately consume the precious blue moon lord points because of me…』
“Rather than that, did you say it’s a monarch point?”
Junyoung tilted his head.
“You don’t know? The points the owner of Blue Moon Node has are monarch points. Guardians like me are called Guardian Points. I understand that the ratio between the Lord’s points and Guardian’s points is 1:3.』
At Ignis’ kind explanation, Junyoung nodded as if he finally understood.
“That’s what it meant.”
Junyoung’s blue moon points can be converted into knight points at a ratio of 1:5 and warrior points at a ratio of 1:10, but his guardian points are at a ratio of 1:3.
“Anyway, never mind. I have enough points to make a moat for me.”
Junyoung said with a smile on his face.
‘If there is a flame moat, the defense power of the castle itself will go up tremendously.’
The moat is a very advantageous facility in terms of defending against enemies attacking from outside the castle.
Usually, water is poured to prevent them from crossing, but if lava is flowing in the moat, most monsters will not even come close.
‘Build a large moat!’
This is an attached facility of the castle, so you can build it at any time by consuming blue moon points.
Small is 3,000P
Medium is 5,000P
Large is 10,000P
Among them, what Ignis requested was a large moat.
[Builds a large moat.]
[10,000P has been consumed.]
【Blue Moon Points】 153,366P
Immediately, a huge moat was created around the stronghold.
“Is this okay?”
Then Ignis’s eyes widened wide.
『You don’t have the slightest hesitation in spending an enormous amount of 10,000 points. Is it because you want me to become a guardian?』
Junyoung nodded.
“Of course. I want an excellent guardian like you to protect my base.”
『Even so, to spend the precious 10,000 points of the blue moon lord without hesitation…』
“Anyway, a whopping 60,000P is consumed to sign a contract with you. It’s about 10,000 points more. It’s not that difficult.”
Then Ignis made an even more astonished expression.
“what? 60,000P? Did you say 60,000P now? Are you really saying that signing a contract with me costs so many points?”
“Why are you asking me that? Are you sure you don’t know the cost of your contract?”
『I am a body bound by an ancient contract. I have absolutely no idea how many points the power of the blue moon has set me for a contract with you.”
Ignis sighed and continued.
“But it’s too much to be 60,000P. With an ancient contract, I can deduct 100P of Guardian Points per day. Since the monarch point is 60,000P, the guardian point is 180,000P. Therefore, I must serve you for 1,800 days.”
“…!”
Was there a contract like that?
‘1800 days is 5 years…’
In other words, if Ignis signs a contract with Junyoung this time, it means that he must faithfully fulfill his role as a base guardian for the next five years.
‘Five years isn’t bad.’
60,000 points to hire a 6-star Guardian for 5 years is honestly not an expensive price at all.
Literally the same price as honey.
‘hmm.’
Junyoung was so pleased that he barely held back the laughter that was about to burst out.
It was because Ignis’ expression looked sad for some reason.
“I won’t ask why you were bound by such a contract in ancient times. However, if you become a guardian, I hope you will be happy to fulfill your role.”
Then Ignis let out a weak laugh and nodded weakly.
『You are right, Count Kang Jun-yeong. If it’s something you’re already doing, it’s probably wiser to make it happy.”
“Then would you like to sign a contract with me now?”
“of course. Instead, I want you to do one favor.”
Ignis continued with a somewhat embarrassed expression.
『Contrary to appearances, I like hanging out with humans. So… can you give me even a small amount of point compensation apart from the contract points?”
“Ask for points?”
『Guardians have no way to acquire points other than receiving points from the monarch. Right now, my guardian points are 0. I need points to use the interesting-looking facilities in your base.』
“Which facilities are you going to use? I would like to avoid contact with people if possible.”
Ignis, the 6-star fire spirit, could burn people if he wandered around, so Jun-young couldn’t help but feel reluctant.
“Ho Ho! You worry about everything. When I am in human form like now, I do not cause any harm to humans.”
“Then I’m glad.”
Junyoung continued to talk with Ignis for a while.
She literally wanted to live with humans unselfishly and had no other intentions.
The reason I needed guardian points was because I wanted to enjoy my daily life as a human, such as buying various interesting things at the point shop in the base or drinking tea or coffee at a cafe.
“Of course, I’m not just asking for it. As much as I received, I will extend the contract period for 5 years so that I can serve you.”
If you extend it for 5 years, will you stay here for 10 years?
As Junyoung, it was an unconditional welcome.
The slave contract…no, there is no reason to refuse to extend the guardian contract.
“good! Then how much do you want?”
Even if it calls for a somewhat burdensome amount, it would be better to accept it if possible.
『I think 30P per day as Guardian Points will be enough. If it’s too much, you can reduce it…”
Then 10P with blue moon points.
That’s about 300P a month.
Compared to the contract points, it is really not a burden at all.
‘It’s a more simple spirit than I thought.’
I thought it would be a lot to spend because it’s a 6-star, but it doesn’t seem to be.
“I understand, Ignis. I will give you whatever you want.”
A smile of joy bloomed on Ignis’ face.
『Do you really mean to give me 30P of Guardian Points as first class?』
“of course. If you work hard, I plan to give you bonus points in the middle.”
When I said the word bonus, Ignis’ expression brightened even more.
『I will sign a contract right away, Count Kang Joon-yeong…』
“Then let’s start the contract.”
In order not to change Ignis’s mind, Junyoung quickly summoned the contract window.
“Spirit Ignis! You must become a guardian to defend my base for 10 years from today. Do you agree?”
This is the comment in the contract window.
You don’t have to worry about what to say because all of Junyoung’s comments are written out.
“To agree.”
Ignis answered without hesitation.
“Then pledge your agreement in front of the blue moon.”
『I, Ignis, will serve for the next 10 years as the base guardian of Junyoung Kang, Count of the Blue Moon. I swear this in front of the blue moon.”
In an instant, moonlight poured down from above.
Hwaaak!
Magnificent notifications heard at the same time.
[Spirit Ignis (★★★★★★) has agreed to the guardian contract.]
[Spirit Ignis has become the guardian of Blue Moon Base.]
[60,000P of Blue Moon points have been consumed.]
【Blue Moon Points】 93,366P
Before I knew it, Ignis’ body was enveloped in the light of the blue moon, making it invisible.
Fire!
Then, as soon as the dazzling light disappeared, Ignis’ appearance changed to that of a woman with red hair and wearing a black one-piece robe.
It’s beautiful, but anyone can recognize that it’s a different race than humans because of the spirit’s unique and heterogeneous aura.
‘Even so, all the races are living together here, so there’s nothing particularly noticeable.’
There are vampires as well as zombies, lycanthropes, ogres, and krrogers, and no one will be surprised if a spirit is added to them.
‘Anyway, I guess I can take a breather now.’
Ignis, the fire spirit, would be able to fill the void left by Marquis Selek.
“Welcome to becoming the defender of the base, Ignis.”
“Please take care of me, Lord.”
Then, like the knights of the blue moon, Ignis responded politely to Junyoung by bowing.
“Your tone has changed.”
“Since I became an official guardian through the contract, you are my Lord until the contract ends. Please treat me like a subordinate.”
“good. That’s a very good attitude.”
Joon-Young smiled and nodded.
“Then I want to leave the management of the moat up to you now?”
“That’s what I wished for, Lord.”
The moment Ignis waved his hand, all the moats surrounding the base turned into a sea of fire.
Fire! flaring-
A fearsome moat infested with lava.
From a distance, the stronghold would appear to be on fire with the heat and flames rising from all over the moat.
“It seems that the heat is stronger than I thought.”
How many beings can withstand that blazing fire?
Even though the drawbridge is installed, if Ignis doesn’t adjust the heat, you’ll be burned to death while crossing the drawbridge.
“Don’t worry, Rod. I’ll make special adjustments so that the heat doesn’t reach our allies.”
“So please.”
“Then, I will go inside the base, take a walk, and get to know the humans. Is that okay?”
“Of course.”
A spirit that likes people.
I heard that normal spirits don’t like to hang out with people, but Ignis was unusual.
‘If there is a spirit like that, the base will be lively and there’s nothing bad about it.’
And, unless the base is attacked by enemies, there is no reason for Ignis to incarnate as his body and stare out from the moat.
It doesn’t matter if you enjoy your daily life like normal people.
‘It seems that the base is now as safe as it was when Marquis Selek was there.’
But it’s still not entirely safe.
It is unknown how many 6-star enemies have flocked to Earth.
‘Let’s hire one more 6-star Guardian.’
Junyoung looked through the list.

-[1] Podina
-[2] Er
From noble mtl dot com.
-[3] Ignis (contract completed)
-30 days left until list update
-【Instant Update】 Consumes 20,000P
‘Should I update the list again?’
Podina was a 5-star golem and Er was a 4-star spirit, so he did not meet Jun-young’s standards.
‘But the second renewal is a whopping 20,000 points.’
I’ve already spent 10,000 points on renewal, but if you add this up, it’s a whopping 30,000 points.
‘Still, I can’t wait a month.’
Points should be collected as best as you can.
‘Renewal of contractable guardian list!’
