Kanata’s purification field expanded outward like an explosion, instantly turning the sludge to white sand. Spirits spilled out, their curses broken and their visages at peace. Kanata watched them as they flew up and away.

“Well, that takes care of that,” said Kanata, opening her eyes. The sewer was as pure and clean as a temple, with white sand in piles here and there. It looked every bit like snow. “That has to have been the source of the poison.”

“Splendid work,” said Zag’giel. “We do not believe a priest could have performed a better purification. Perhaps you truly should have been a Saint, Kanata.”

“Well,” Kanata responded, “I never would have worked that hard to become a Saint.” Kanata’s power, of course, had only been obtained thanks to her training to be a Beast Tamer.

“May we ask how much of the sewer has been purified?” asked Zag’giel.

“Oh,” Kanata answered, “about the entire Royal Capital, give or take.”

Zag’giel was at a loss for words. “We... We see.” The Royal Capital was the biggest city in the kingdom, and Kanata had purified the entire sewer. Zag’giel decided not to think about it and nodded his head. “The reward for the request was measured in stride-lengths, was it not?” he asked. “Such a large sum might well damage the kingdom’s finances.”

You can imagine how the guild staff member reacted when they came to confirm Kanata’s completion of the request. Suffice it to say, they passed out from the shock.

By the time Kanata emerged from the sewer, the sun was setting on the horizon. When they saw her, the street toughs from earlier ran up.

“M’lady! You’re safe!”

Behind them, in the area where they’d shown Kanata the entrance to the sewer earlier, was a great gathering of sick townsfolk. There were old men with agonized coughs and children with great dark spots around their eyes. They regarded Kanata with skepticism. Did this girl really purify the poison that had been spilling from the sewer? It seemed hard to believe.

“There are more here than we anticipated,” said Zag’giel. “It will take days to see them all individually.”

“S-Sorry, cat-man! But everyone here is suffering. Can’t you do something?” the shorter man pleaded.

“Don’t worry!” said Kanata. “I’ve got this.”

With that casual reassurance, she held out her hands toward the gathered crowd.

“Ouchies go away! Ouchies go away!” she said in a singsong voice.

Incantations didn’t need to be any one thing in particular, but such a casual way of casting magic drew more than a few suspicious glances.

“Don’t be ridiculous, young lady!” said an old woman. “Such a terrible illness can’t be—” Suddenly she stopped in surprise. Her throat was clear and her voice worked perfectly. In fact, the sound of coughing that had filled the area just a second ago was completely gone. A soft green light was shining down from overhead, casting a gentle veil over the crowd and purging their sickness from the very root.

“Mommy! My chest doesn’t hurt anymore!”

“It’s not just my cough! My knees haven’t felt this good in years!”

“My eyes.
