chapter 10

“Thank you. Now let’s make the contract.”

The man takes out a knife.

“The magical slavery covenant is completed by making the slave drink the blood of the master.”

“Easier than paperwork?”

“The spell is already cast, you see.”

I cut my thumb with the knife that was handed to me.

“So how do I get her to drink……”

“Drip it, suck it, be my guest.”

The man’s mouth moves in a grin. It was kind of frustrating, so I decided to let it drip.

The girl has a large collar on her, so I had her look up at an angle to let the blood drip from the deeply cut thumb in her mouth.

Then the inside of the large collar glowed blue-white and instantly faded.

With a loud clunk, the collar came off.

There was a blue pattern around the girl’s neck that resembled the shape of a heart.

Is this the pattern of a slave? I think I’ve seen it a few times in the city.

On the necks of people in this world, the number of the [Bonds list], originally given by God, is represented as a red pattern. In my case, it’s ’00’. I don’t have any friends.

In contrast, sl*ves appear to be blue in color, not numbers. I read in the contract that those whose jobs are enslaved don’t get the benefits of the [Bonds list]. Will sinners not be able to bond? God that’s harsh.

“The contract is now complete. The girl is now your slave.”

“Can I ask you one question? What are these bandages?”

“You must never remove it.”

I pointed to the bandage covering the girl’s eyes and the man guffawed at me again.

“If you still wish to take it off, I suggest you go back to the inn. Alone in an empty room, with no one else in sight.”

“Ha, ha ……”

“I suggest you ask her about the details. Alone in a room with no one else.”

“…… She’s not a sex sl*ve, though.”

“Of course. Sex slave contracts are different. You’re not supposed to touch her.”

The man hands me a sheaf of paper. It’s a copy of the contract and a slave’s guide. When did you get it ready?

They also dress the girl in a cloak to cover her ears and tail.

“Thank you for choosing our company.”

The man bows ostentatiously again.

“Well, then.”

Bang

The moment I heard the sound of clapping hands, I was in front of a shopping district.

Teleportation magic? No, hallucination magic.

It seems that I was moved to a side street in the shopping district before I knew it.

I was too distracted by the fact that it was business. Or rather, I was too upset that I had purchased a slave. I also failed to check the status of the merchant.

“Well, I can’t help but agree with what I’ve bought that’s done.”

Once I decided to go back to the inn, I looked at the girl and was surprised to see her.

The girl had also turned her head towards me.

It wasn’t that which surprised me, but the expression that was directed at me.

Instead of the expressionless face, he had been wearing up until now, her mouth was trembling with an obvious look of confusion.

“Who are you?”

That was the first thing the girl said.
