New Companion

Jake let Jeanie falsify editable information like his weight, height, or species, then retrieved his brand-new ID card.

"Thanks."

The little fairy panicked again, blushing as she received his gratitude. Plainly, this didn't happen every day.

"I thought mage was an important status. Why, are you reacting like you're afraid of everyone?" Jake probed quietly.

He hadn't said anything from the beginning, but when he wanted to he could be very observant. The door at the bottom of the tower was padlocked from the outside. This detail in itself was already suspicious, but this Minmin's small size could have explained things.

The problem was that there was no window in this room either. In fact, he had not seen any form of ventilation large enough to let a tiny fairy like Jeanie through. Because of this, the tower was unnaturally damp and most of the walls and grimoires were eaten away by mold. It was not a healthy working environment.
