My Wife and I Became Sages in Another World

A month or so had passed since Vespera joined us. During that time, she taught me a lot about the world while I taught her different cooking recipes.

She even showed me a spot in the forest where these giant bees were located and produced a lot of honey. Thanks to that, I was able to make some sweet bread and a honey sauce for our meals, and just as I thought, Vespera was the type of girl who loved sweet things.

I also told her the truth about who I was and how I got into this world.

She was my familiar, so I felt like I could trust her more than anyone else. She didn't seem to care much about my story, but she did ask me to cook more recipes from my world.

It was that same aloofness that made me feel good about telling her my secret.

One day, while she was teaching me how to read, I remembered something that Jackson had told me when I first visited End Village and saw the beastkin people for the first time.

He said that beastkin originated from the union of humans and legendary beasts. At first, I imagined the worst, but I decided just to ignore it.

Now that I knew that the legendary beasts looked... Well... Like supermodels, it made more sense to me.

I did ask Vespera if all the other legendary beasts had a humanoid form like her, and she confirmed it.

I also asked her what the "ranks" meant whenever I inspected a monster. The redback boars were ranked "D," goblins were ranked "E," and I remembered seeing that Vespera's demon spiders were ranked "C."

I assumed that it was how powerful they were, but to be honest, I hadn't felt a difference between the ranks that I stumbled upon.
