Chapter 27: One more slave

 

“Even so, why do you look so happy? And you’re the one who said you’d serve… If you are not careful, the Modell family could get stripped of their titles. Worst case scenario, the whole family could be beheaded, so isn’t it normal to feel despair and sadness?”

I ask Bridgette, who is staring at me with twinkles in her eyes, and she immediately replies as if waiting for my question.

“I hate evil. My father planned to do the horrible act of acting righteously while doing evil behind the scenes. The worst is that that scoundrel is a huge evil with the power of a ducal family. No ordinary person can defeat him. Even the royal family would have difficulty. But if it’s Kaisar-sama, you can do it with ease and by yourself.”

“Oh, yeah. I heard that earlier. And how I’m supposed to do that…?”

Bridgette gave me a look that said, ‘Don’t you understand what I’ve just said?’

Do you want some beating?

“No, I am sure that Kaisar-sama does understand. But if you want to hear it directly from me, please allow me.”

Bridgette then pulls a slave collar out of nowhere and puts it in my hand. [EN: Tf.]

Well. This girl sure says she wants to serve me, but a slave? Though her eyes are so bright that I dare not point it out because I sense a kind of fear I’ve never felt before.

“Since I’m a member of the Modell family, I know you cannot trust me, so put this collar of servitude on me and become my master! Then I will pledge my everlasting loyalty and devotion to Kaisar-sama with this sword! My soul is overflowing with joy at the miracle of having met someone to whom I am willing to offer this sword!”

This girl is a bad deal.

This was my first impression after listening to Bridgette.

And while I got stuck for words, Bridgette enthusiastically came over to me, “Now hurry up! Put this collar on me!”

Well? To put it differently, she is a reckless person, and at worse, she is a fool who only believes in the power of action.

“By the way, what will you do if I refuse?”

“I will end myself.”

“Ehh? No, don’t go that far—”

“I have to. It is natural. I am still a member of the Modell family, even if I have nothing to do with their wrongdoings. However, I will not die for free. I will die after crushing the Mordell family.”

“… No, but—”

“It’ll be fine! I swear I will not cause you any trouble at all, Kaisar-sama!”

“… I understand. I lost.”

Then, with a long sigh, I put a collar of servitude on Bridgette and made her swear allegiance to me.

That day, I gained another slave.
