After receiving Altair's assurance, Rinslet immediately felt at ease. His formidable strength provided her with a profound sense of security. For Rinslet, Altair's response filled her with an overwhelming sense of security.

"Um, Lord Altair."

"Just call me Altair."

"Master Altair?"

This peculiar form of address puzzled Rinslet slightly, but since Altair had spoken, he was in charge, and his word was law.

"Yes, that's how you can call me."

Altair nodded in satisfaction.

"Alright, now that everyone has left, we should go too."

"Yes, Master Altair, please follow me. I'll take you to my dormitory."

"To your dormitory?"

Altair raised an eyebrow. In this academy, there are only girls, which means…

"Um… because when making the contract, we need to… Master Altair, you are a male spirit, so I think it's better in the dormitory. Outside, even I would feel a bit…"

Rinslet's face turned red. On the surface, she was a proud person, but in reality, she was just a pure young girl. At only sixteen, this was her first intimate contact with a male, and she was shy.

"Alright, let's go to your dormitory."

Altair looked at his right hand and nodded in agreement.

Under Rinslet's guidance, Altair followed her into the girls' dormitory and arrived at her suite.

Indeed, as one of the four great nobles, Rinslet's dormitory was a suite. In Altair's view, it was at least two hundred square meters, with two bedrooms, a living room, and a bathroom. Impressive, this is a noble's dormitory.

Moreover, there was a maid in the dormitory, Rinslet's exclusive maid.

However, what surprised Altair was that this maid was utterly incompetent. Apart from wearing a maid uniform and serving as eye candy, she did nothing. All the housework was handled by Rinslet, including cooking, laundry, and cleaning the dormitory, all by Rinslet alone.

When Altair asked Rinslet why the maid didn't do anything, Rinslet didn't answer, because Altair soon understood why.

This maid would trip over nothing; if asked to carry a cup, she would drop it within five seconds. She was a walking disaster.

As long as she's cute, that's enough. That's how Rinslet explained it. Because of her cuteness, Rinslet took her in as a maid, dressed her in a maid uniform, and aside from following her, she didn't need to do anything else. Rinslet took care of all the housework, even cooking for the maid and washing her clothes.

Incredible!

You're truly just keeping a cute maid for show; that's remarkable!

Nevertheless, Altair was quite pleased with Rinslet's behavior because her exceptional ability to serve others meant that he would also be very comfortable in the days to come. Although Altair could cook himself, being able to relax was delightful!

After introducing her maid to Altair, Rinslet asked him to wait in her bedroom while she prepared for the contract.

Altair didn't hesitate and sat directly on Rinslet's bed, waiting for her to get ready.

The preparation involved taking a bath.

As a pure elementalist maiden, before contracting with a high-ranking spirit, one must be in the purest state, which entails bathing and presenting oneself clean to the spirit to form the contract.

This was also why, at the beginning, Altair saw Claire bathing; she was preparing to contract with Est after her bath, but Altair got there first, and even without him, it wouldn't have been her turn.

Altair didn't wait long. About twenty minutes later, the bedroom door was pushed open.

"Miss, good luck! Win over Master Altair in one go!"

"Yes, wait for my good news, Carol."

With such encouragement, Rinslet clenched her fist and entered the bedroom.

Unlike before, Rinslet was no longer in her school uniform but wore a shrine maiden outfit. Yes, the kind seen in shrines. Despite being a Western fantasy setting, the protagonist and certain details were Japanese.

However, this shrine maiden outfit was quite revealing. The chest area was almost bare; Altair could see the smooth curves at a glance. With this attire, even a slight bend would expose everything.

So, contracting with a high-ranking spirit involves the elementalist seducing the spirit!

I must say, the spirits in this world know how to enjoy themselves!

"Master Altair, I am ready!"

Rinslet approached Altair, knelt on the bed beside him, faced him, and slightly lifted her head.

"Please form a contract with me."

She then slowly closed her eyes, awaiting Altair's kiss.

Altair gazed at the girl before him, waiting for his kiss, and was momentarily captivated.

He had to admit, Rinslet was incredibly alluring at that moment. Her golden hair, as radiant as Altair's, cascaded freely down her back, still slightly damp and not fully dry, with water droplets lingering on her neck.

Coupled with the blush on her cheeks, whether from the bath or nervousness, and the exotic shrine maiden outfit, she exuded an irresistible charm.

Altair prided himself on being devoted to his wives, but faced with such a girl, he couldn't help but be mesmerized.

It was different, entirely different from the feelings Hestia and Saeko evoked in him.

This was a completely new sensation!

Staring at Rinslet's rosy lips, Altair couldn't resist leaning down slowly and kissing her.

So soft!

Hestia's lips were soft too, but differently so. Hestia gave him a playful vibe; her kisses often involved slight trembles, mirroring her personality. Saeko's lips conveyed gentleness; her kisses were filled with complete submission, reflecting her character.

Rinslet, on the other hand, felt petite, very petite, and tender.

After an indeterminate time, Altair lifted his head, parting from Rinslet's lips. Rinslet exhaled deeply, her face flushed. From the moment Altair's lips touched hers, she had held her breath in nervousness, only daring to breathe now.

She placed her small hand over her chest, which heaved continuously. The shrine maiden outfit shifted with her movements, revealing more skin.

"H-how is it? Master Altair, is the contract complete?"

Opening her eyes, Rinslet shyly looked at Altair and inquired.

Altair initially intended to confirm its completion, but seeing Rinslet's flushed and vulnerable expression, his heart raced slightly.

"Have you sensed my power?"

"I… I'm sorry, Master Altair, I haven't felt anything."

Rinslet detected no change; she only noticed her heart pounding rapidly, which confused her.

"Does that mean the contract failed?"

Rinslet's face instantly clouded with worry. This was a contract with the highest-ranking spirit; failure implied she wasn't worthy.

"Why, why did this happen?"

Rinslet had been relying on Altair to help save her sister. If the contract didn't succeed, she feared he might not assist her. Anxiety gripped her; hope had been within reach, only to turn into disappointment. She was so distressed that tears welled up in her eyes.

Observing Rinslet's tearful eyes, Altair's heart quickened once more.

"Shall we try again?"

"C-can we?"

Rinslet looked at Altair with pleading eyes.

"Yes."

"Then, please… form the contract with me once more."

Her emerald eyes closed again, and Altair leaned down anew. After a while, they separated.

"Did you feel it this time?"

"Um… still nothing… Master Altair, could we try again?"

"Yes."

"Please… form the contract with me again."

Sorry, Est, your husband couldn't resist.
