My Wife and I Became Sages in Another World

It had been a few weeks since I arrived in this new world, and my life in the forest was only getting better by the day.

What had started as a small cave at the bottom of a giant tree was now a house inside of the tree.

I used nature magic to carve more and more of the tree, until eventually, I had a three story house.

In the first level I had a kitchen, a bathroom, and a small dining room. There was only one chair in the dining room, but that was all I needed.

I made a toilet using clay that I gathered with my earth magic, modeled it, and then heated it up with fire magic. It wasn't the best, but it worked.

I even added an enchantment using water magic to make it flush, and the iron pipes I made would send it all straight to a river that was about 500 meters away.

Yes, it took me a long time...

In the kitchen, I managed to make almost all the appliances I needed. I had an oven and stove made of clay and iron, and I even made a refrigerator that used an enchantment with ice magic.

Enchantments were the most recent type of magic I had learned from "Phelena's Tutorial," and they were extremely useful.

By drawing arcane circles while casting a spell, it would leave a mark that could be activated or recharged with magic and produce the effect that the caster wanted.

Basically, in the iron box that I was going to use as a refrigerator, I drew an arcane symbol while casting a weak ice spell. Now all I had to do was pour some magic into the refrigerator every once in a while, and it would keep everything inside cold.

On the second floor, I had a work table filled with medicinal herbs and berries.

Ever since I found those greenberries, I ended up coming across a bunch of other medicinal materials, so I spent a pretty long time experimenting and mixing different stuff to make medicine.

Even though it was technically useless for me since my body, a creation by the Goddess of Life, couldn't really get ill, I still found it fun to discover new elixirs and potions.

And on the third floor, it's where I had my bed. I had made a pillow using feathers and fiber for the cover, but it honestly sucked. I was using a blanket made of leaves, and the whole thing was just uncomfortable in general.

On the other hand, my food was getting much better. One day, I ended up finding a small plant of what seemed to me like chickpeas.

My "Inspect" spell said they were called "Chepes," but I ignored it. They looked and tasted exactly like chickpeas to me.

I also found a cayenne pepper plant. Well, it wasn't exactly cayenne pepper, but it looked like it.

"Inspect," said it was called "Devil Pepper," but honestly, it wasn't spicy enough to grant that name to it.

But my most important find didn't actually come from any plant. It was something that was needed on pretty much every single meal known to man, salt.

Just like I did when I split the iron and the clay from the soil and rocks, I did the same with salt and extracted it from the ground.

The best part of finding all these vegetables and fruits was that I kept the seeds and planted them right next to my house.

I thought it would take a long time for them to grow, but I used nature magic to send even more nutrients to their roots and speed up their growth by a huge margin.

My hunting got much better too. In fact, I had to slow down my hunts since I was getting way too much meat, and I had no space to maintain it. I did have a refrigerator, but these animals were, what I would call, very oversized.

Even animals like deer and rabbits were double the size of the versions I knew, so naturally, the amount of meat that one of them produced was enough to feed me for days.

To combat my storage problems, I decided to read "Phelena's Tutorial" since I remembered seeing something about a storage spell.

It was called "Void Pocket," and it was a spell that allowed me to open a small rift in space into my own pocket dimension.

In it, I could store anything except for living beings, and time was also stopped. That meant that if I stored all my food in my "Void Pocket," it wouldn't spoil.

The book said it was a hard spell to learn since people had trouble picturing this space rift in their heads. Imagination truly played a big part in someone's magic abilities, but I didn't have much trouble learning it.

I thought that it must have been since I've watched fiction movies, anime, etc., that I had a visual reference for how something like that would look.

In the end, it took me a few minutes to master the spell, and my storage problem had been solved.

A few days later, I was strolling around the forest gathering herbs and berries when I heard a loud cry from an animal. It was pretty common to hear strange noises in the forest every now and then, but this one felt different, so I ran straight to where it was coming from.

When I got there, I saw 2 oversized wolves dead bodies. One was black, and one was white, and in between them, a small baby cub cried out in desperation to the band of goblins that surrounded it.

I only knew they were goblins because I used my "Inspect" on them quickly from the top of a tree.

Rank E

Violent and murderous monsters, favorite prey are humanoid women.

They are created from the magic of a Goblin King and take orders directly from them.>

As I guessed, goblins were an absolute menace in this world. I mean, almost every piece of fiction or fantasy that I read that had goblins in them portrayed them as awful beings, and it was no different in this new world.

I jumped down from the tree, trying to take their attention away from the cub and onto me. With my "bo" in hand, I launched myself at the goblins and whacked them all in the head until they were dead.

When I turned around, the baby cub was still there looking at me.

'I thought it would use that opportunity to run away…' I thought.

"Hey little buddy…" I said as I crouched and extended my hand to the baby wolf.

It was pretty cute. His entire body was covered in black fur with a white spot on his chest and some strange blue markings.

I supposed that the two dead wolves were its parents. From what I could tell, the wolves were hurt already, and the goblins used traps to finish them off. When they saw that only the cub was left, they thought they could gang up on it.

"Hmmm, would you like to come with me?" I asked the baby wolf, thinking that maybe it would understand me. It got closer to me, so I picked it up.

"Ahh, so you are a dude… I should give you a name then…" I said as I placed him back down.

"How about… Yoru?" I said pretty unconfidently, but I supposed that he liked it since his body started glowing for a second. After it dimmed, the little wolf was looking at me, waving his tail left and right.

"What just happened…?" I muttered to myself as I was petting the cub.

Name: Yoru

Familiar Contract: Ichiro

Age: 6 months

Skills: Shadow Weaving.

MP: 5,000>

'Familiar Contract? Did this little wolf just…?' I thought as I focused on the "Familiar Contract" tab.

Familiar Contracts cannot be broken and will end when either the beast or the tamer passes away.>

"Well… that pretty much explains it…" I muttered as I glanced at Yoru, who was sitting down, wagging his tail, looking at me.

"Welcome to the family!" I told him with a smile, to which he replied with a hearty bark.
