Getting the requirements from volen, tara takes it seriously. He also discussed it with Luci, although he was initially annoyed with luci for not telling him in advance about this.

“ why..you..not directly..receive it? “, said luci exhausted from running around with tempran

“ actually why do you want me to contract with the benevolent? “

“ it..because.”, luci explains his true intentions on tara. Luci wants tara to accept the terms and establish a contract with the benevolent because it can be a challenge that will be useful when he will eradicate the demons of darkness later. In the requirement it will also be able to increase tara knowledge about wind elements, although tara later failed, he indirectly benefited from the requirement. The benefits gained by tara can be in the form of fighting experience, arranging strategies and increasing the strength of the elements later.

Tara nodded in understanding with luci intent, she approached volen and agreed to his terms. Tara will try to conquer the wind of kindness. By convincing himself, tara is ready with what he will face later. Before starting, Luci had tempran make a protective wall as a barrier. Tempran made it gladly but this is for the sake of tara not for the sake of luci. Actually he was upset about being ruled by Luci.

After installing a protective wall around it, the volen created a huge whirlwind around the tara. The leaves, trees, sand, and grass around it flew away in the wind. Now tara needs to hold on and try to control it.  Tara's vision was interrupted by sand flying as a result of the wind whirlpool around her. Luci, tempran, and volen's job is to keep an eye on tara so that nothing unwanted happens.

Tara tried to concentrate in the middle of the wind, but it was very difficult because of the wind speed that continues to increase rapidly every minute. He must endure so as not to be carried away by the wind. Tara calmed her mind and closed both her eyes, standing upright and feeling every movement of the wind that surrounded her.

His concentration broke when he was hit by a tree branch flying in the wind and hit his face and arms. It did not cause severe tuka however, the tare's cheeks and arms scratched the sharp end of the twig. The wound was spitting out a little blood.

Tara forgot her pain and returned to concentrating with the wind. He felt the speed, sound, and shape of the wind that surrounded him. Until he stretched out his right hand forward and tried to fuse with the wind. 

But there is a strange, the wind does not want to accept tara requests, as a result of which the wind is getting louder.

(ugh!, very clearly this wind did not receive me at all), the inner tara tried to endure. Due to the tightness of the wind, the tara legs begin to weaken, the balance of the tara begins to waver. He had to quickly figure out how to control the wind.

“ hey, rabbit. Are you sure he can control it? “, said tempran while paying attention to tara

“ tsk. We'll see “ later

“ but.what is he not forcing himself too much? “, volen the benevolent is of course worried

“ vol, at this time we can not do anything, we can only believe in the ability of the Emores”

Volen nodded in understanding with Luci's words. Luci watches tara with confidence and believes he can conquer the wind.

Tara's legs couldn't hold much longer. Tara was dragged and fell to the ground. He tried to stay in his position and thought about how he could control the wind.

(what should I do? ), inner tara. He recalled the magic lesson that erik gave him yesterday.

Remember one thing tara, each element has its own character. Fire, symbolizing courage, water, symbolizing purity and healing, thunderbolt, symbolizing justice, land, symbolizing perseverance, light, symbolizing purity, life, symbolizing the desire to endure, and wind, symbolizing hopelessness. Therefore, if you control the wind, you must convince it and not give up on it to gain their confidence.

(that's him! )

Tara found a solution and started to get excited again. He tried to get up and calm his mind.

“ you did not accept me apparently..., are you going to continue this because you are not sure of me? ”, muttered tara by strengthening its footing so as not to be dragged back by the strong wind.

“ I've experienced things I don't even want, and for this I won't give up, I'll make you sure of me! “

Tara took out strength from her body and gathered mana to her heart. He tried to fuse with the wind with high concentration. As tara let out her strength the atmosphere around changed instantly.

“ hoo..he started using his power apparently “

“ power what is this?!, I have never felt before “

“ because of this power, the wind atmosphere is very much different! “

“ I expected you guys would be surprised to see it. This power, is the purest power among all the powers in this world “

“ pure you said?! “

“ yes. I was also surprised when he first controlled mana back then, the aura emitted was very clean “

“ that means, he has very pure power compared to the descendants of nobles, no. It's even purer than us holy beings “

The three of them stared at tara continuously. They couldn't even take their eyes off. Curiosity about the end result that tara can, and what strength is still hidden in the soul of tara, makes the sacred beings ambitious to be on the side of tara.

Tara is staying in her current position. He increased his strength many times, yet the wind still forcefully rejected tara.

“ oh, come on, are you guys going to keep rejecting me?, I'm still a five-year-old know!, can't you give me a price discount?! “

(though great, he sucks too), the mind of luci, volen, and tempran who think the same when hearing tara yells in the middle of a strong wind.

(a little more), tara continued to gather mana into her heart and felt every movement of the wind. He began to understand his movements, but as he understood he also got more and more rejection. The wind blowing on the tara strongly made the body of the tara numb. Tara fell silent in position doing nothing but gathering her energy and mana.

“ what is he doing?, will he keep quiet like that? “

“ we will know later “, ( I'm sure you can definitely do it )

All watched tara with hope he managed to conquer that wind with his ability.

At the same time, tara closed her eyes and imagined an angi in her head. The longer tara can clearly feel the core of the wind that continues to blow with its tightness.

(this is the time )

A faint light appeared enveloping all over tara's body. Seeing the great power that was in the sparkling tara, the saint beasts who witnessed it gasped in surprise. Even Luci who first encountered tara was surprised at her.

“ this is the time, make you sure of me!”, tara threw that big power to the ground. Instantly the wind stopped starting from the place where tara threw its power, then spread around creating a wind that was opposite direction from before. The wind that came from the grandfather of the tara blew towards the three holy creatures. The wind of kindness manages to conquer with its own strength. Leaf leaves, stop berterbagan, tree trees began to calm down, the sand began to stop carried by the wind. Instantly the great wind that had surrounded him disappeared, leaving behind a gentle and friendly wind.

Luci, volen, and tempran approached the tara who was lying limp after using its power.

“ tara, are you okay? “, tara does not respond to luci

“ looks like he's late-“

“ WOI YOU'RE ALIVE RIGHT?! “, scream tempran and luci compact interrupting volen greeting. Tara who heard him then raised her head, looked at the three of them, and then smiled widely while brandishing her thumb signifying she was fine (still alive). 

“ huft..you are still alive apparently “, replied luci with a heartless look. Tara who saw him grabbed a small pebble and threw it towards Luci. The gravel hit right on Luci's head. Instantly I was in pain and held the head that was hit by the throw earlier.

“ HEY! IT'S SICK! “

“ you think I'm gonna die for this?, huh. That won't happen “, tara gets up and sits in place. Tempran who saw Luci benjol in pain laughed loudly and mocked luci. Luci did not accept and grabbed a pebble larger than the pebble that was thrown tara. Luci threw it at the head of the tempran, instantly the tempran stopped laughing and fell down, holding his head.

Tara and Volen chuckled at them. Volen looked at tara happily.

“ you've managed to control it tara “

“ yes. It's all thanks to you guys “

“ Tara Shuya Starlia, I Volen the Holy Creator of the Goodness of Heart ask permission, to accompany. “, said volen lowered his head. Seeing Volen who filed his contract with tara, tempran stood and faced tara and bowed before tara.

“ ... I Tempran the Holy Creator of Persistence asked permission to serve you.”, luci suddenly arrived also bowed before tara.

“...aku Luci the Holy Creature The Desire asks permission to always be by your side.”.

“..and we swear on behalf of holy beings, to always be loyal to the people we serve “, said the three of them simultaneously. Tara, who had never received the request and the vow, felt strange about the situation. He took a deep breath and smiled at them.

“ I, Tara Shuya Starlia, accept you guys not as a relationship between employer and subordinate. However, I accept you as a friendship between humans and holy beings. “, said tara to accept the oath of the three holy beings. Volen and tempran gasped in surprise at tara's speech, in contrast to Luci. Looks like luci already guessed tara would say that. The three holy creatures smiled at tara. Then the luminous magic circle below them indicates that there has been a contract between tara and the three holy creatures. When the magic circle disappeared, they had already officially entered into a contract. Now they will work together to fight in the future.

“ tara, please help from now on, call us if you need help “, said volen smiling happily.

“ yes. Sure oes. But..why does the perseverance and luci also take an oath?, when I have not done what for the terms of the contract? “

“ you have met the requirements with me “

“ right, with me also”

Say luci and tempran alternately.

“ when do I do it?”

“ when you faced volen wind earlier”

“ we see your persistence and desire to conquer that wind”

“ hmm.indeed surprise. But as the first person beside you, you are indeed great“, said Luci happy

“ right, me and tempran alone surprised by your greatness “

“ really? Thank goodness then “, said tara shy of getting compliments

“ yes.and I hope you call us by our name like you call luci, anyway, we have already signed a contract with you as a friend instead of “, said tempran. Volen nodded in agreement with the tempran. Tara smiled at them.

“ Luci, Volen, and Tempran, please help “

Hearing that word from tara, they smiled at each other. And the atmosphere between them became even more familiar than before. After that, volen and tempran went to the place where the holy creatures were left tara and luci alone. Tara went inside the house, walked to the room to clean herself and treat the scratches caused by the twigs and falls earlier. After that, tara headed to the kitchen to fill her empty stomach after the workout.

Along with tara eating his food, his family went home with some stuff.

“ tara.we go home “

“ welcome, you guys brought me the cotton candy? “, tara approached them and immediately asked for cotton candy like a five-year-old child. Dad gave her cotton candy. Tara smiled happily at that. 

“ DAD!, DAD! “, shouted mom from the backyard. Father, erik, and leonhard who heard it immediately ran towards the backyard approaching erik.

“ baby, what are you shouting about? “

“ i-it..page is..”, mom points towards the page that is in front of her. Everyone gasped in surprise and petrification there, looking at his messy courtyard like a ruined ship that was in the brink of a huge wave.

“ WHY CAN IT BE LIKE THIS?! “, dad, and erik shout in surprise

(i forgot about that! ), Inner tara cold sweat. They stared at tara with curious gazes as to what happened during their time away. 

Tara took her eyes off them. Luci is engrossed in eating and does not care about them. Tara was interrogated all night.
