Radis rubbed her nose against his chin.
No matter where their bodies touched, they fit together perfectly.
It was amazing how the warm sensation filled spaces she hadn’t even known were empty, making her feel whole as if places that had always let the cold wind through were finally sealed.
Yves murmured,
“That failure… was the best thing I’ve ever done.”
Seeing the tears in his eyes, Radis realized he was breaking free from a curse.
Yves tilted his head and, like a cat, licked her lower lip with the tip of his tongue.
A pleasant tingling sensation spread through her body.
She tried to turn her head, laughing.
But his arms didn’t let her go so easily.
“I like you, Radis. I really like you. And I love you.”
She tried to say the same.
But before she could even open her mouth, his lips greedily claimed hers.
As they kissed gently, she whispered her love to him.
Their silent confessions intertwined softly.
She knew he was saying the same thing over and over.
In front of the lovers who had finally found each other after living two lifetimes, an ugly cat made of dirt wobbled on its five legs and stood up.

“Radis, is this enough?”
On the stem of the Underworld Tree, Robert placed a small sack on the ground.
Inside the sack was a melon-sized fruit of the Underworld Tree.
As Radis inscribed a spell onto the seeds taken from the fruit, she replied,
“I think that’s enough for today.”
“I’ll extract the seeds.”
Robert sat down next to Radis and pulled a fruit from the sack.
They were making golems from the seeds of the forbidden region’s Underworld Tree.
In the past, this would have been unimaginable because of Arachne, its guardian.
But now, as long as they didn’t disturb the golems beneath the roots, the forbidden region was peaceful.
Robert looked into Radis’s face and asked,
“Are you pushing yourself too hard?”
“The spell is complicated, so I’m a bit tired. But since we’re already here, I want to make as many as possible.”
Radis rubbed her eyes and continued inscribing the spell onto the seed.
Robert watched her with an expression of disbelief.
“I can’t believe you’re making golems.”
“I’m amazed too.”
Radis threw the inscribed seed towards the ground.
As it sank into the soil, the ground began to ripple as if it were alive.
“I can’t believe it’s this easy to create one.”
Soon, a new mud golem rose from the ground.
Radis commanded the golem.
“Go to work.”
The mud golem began to trudge in the direction she had designated.
“…It’s truly unbelievable.”
Robert looked at the map spread out on the ground.
It was a map of Monsterwood that Radis had created herself.
After completing the map, Radis had spent a long time figuring out how to carve out the safest path connecting the south and north.
She had to consider the terrain and avoid areas teeming with dangerous monsters.
After much deliberation, she had drawn a line on the map connecting the south and north.
Of course, that alone made the map little more than a fanciful dream.
It was practically impossible to create a path through the forest, not just around its edges.
It wasn’t feasible to carry out construction in a forest swarming with monsters.
So she thought of using golems.
‘Why not use golems for construction?’
Monsters generally didn’t bother golems.
To them, golems were just lumps of dirt or stone.
If golems were used, construction in the forest would be possible.
Once the path was created and the surrounding area was cleared, golems could be used to guard the path.
“Of course, if humans start using this path, golems alone won’t be enough. That’s why we need a mercenary guild.”
As he split the fruit with his hands, Robert shook his head.
“Your intention is good, but the problem will be those guys.”
“Those guys?”
“Our subjugation squad. Just thinking about turning those beasts into humans again gives me a headache.”
Radis grinned and said,
“Since we’ve done it once, it’ll be easier the second time. And I have someone in mind to help.”
“Who?”
