Let's calm down and think about it.

The one standing in front of the door with a tearful face is Rita, the head priestess of the 'Iturna Order'. There's no doubt about it. The same robes as the other day, fluffy blonde hair and cherry red eyes are still there.

No, ...... is a little different?

He's wearing a collar. It's a leather collar, just like Cecil wears.

So does that mean that Rita is a slave?

Who?

"Nagi's

Rita said, noticing that I was gunning for the collar.

'My collar?'

Yes.

Slave?

Yes.

Who?

I did.

Why?

"We have a 'deal'.

I did. I know I did, but...

I 'signed a contract' to help the people of the Order for 20,000 arsha.

What did Rita say then?

"I 'sign' as a representative of the 'Iturna Order' caravan, and I'll pay you 20,000 arsha to help us! If you don't pay, you can make me your slave or whatever you want!

You should pay .......

So! You said you were fired from the Order!

What about your past salaries and savings?

Priests and above are paid a salary, and anything below that is offset against the cost of living! I've just been promoted to the third level and became a Priestess, so I didn't get paid yet!

Rita comes into the room with a thud.

I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make the most of your time with us.

I'm going to have to bite my lip and tears keep flowing out one after the other.

''Wow, I said it right. You will be able to find out the best way to make your life easier. They said they helped me fight against the Leviathan and moved the carriage to safety. I told you that I was risking my life!

Bang, bang, Rita tapped the bed.

'Please don't do it because it will make the dust stand up and Cecil will be surprised.

'Twenty thousand arsha as a reward for saving lives. I told you that you should pay it in the honor of the Order.'

What happened?

...... eh?

Rita glanced sideways at Cecil, then looked sad.

I was told that the ...... demon attacked me for putting an evil dark elf in a carriage and that the ...... goddess was punishing me for it.

Okay, let's go destroy the Order right now.

Let's lift the cheat ban. Let's end it now. I'll do it.

Screw you.

That's what they say about the guys who helped us.

"Cecil, you are authorized to use the Fireball. Let's blow up an entire branch of the Iturna Order.

Please don't do that!

Cecil hurriedly grabbed my hand.

I don't care what is said. The purpose of Nagi-sama is to "hide your power and pretend to be useless to get through the world," right? What are you going to do with all that fancy stuff?

Just this once. We're just gonna sneak you out.

I'm in trouble. I'm happy for you, Nagi-sama, and I've fallen in love with you again, so please don't do this.

......

I thought I'd remind you of what happens when you piss off a harmless doujin game creator.

Even when my own site went down in flames, I wasn't this mad.

'So what did Rita do after she said that?

Well, it was a little out of character. I didn't know what to do, and I called the bishop an outsider. Heh.

Don't be embarrassed by that.

''I accidentally got my 'sacred skills' sealed up. Hahaha.

There, it's not even a place to laugh.

'No, I thought I was a bit more mature myself. But Cecil-chan said terrible things to me, and the priests who accompanied me were saying, 'It's your fault! I'm not going to take any responsibility for it. and the next thing I knew I was screaming: ...... "You're a wanker! He said.

Then he said to the bishop, 'If you say so much, you may consider paying that adventurer a reward. But you will be sealed as punishment for your outburst.'

"Does this mean that Rita accepted the seal of 'divine power' from you?

'Nah. So the bishop and the deputy bishop and the other chief priests talked it over again.

Are you sure you can't pay for this?

You're very good at that.

So, did Rita call the bishop an outsider again?

No. I just gave him a roundhouse kick.

That would get you fired.

That's one of the top three things you can't do when you retire.

"Don't worry, I didn't guess. I just grazed your unappreciated beard. It was the bishop's fault. And I washed my toes!

That's not gonna work. And I don't care about that last one.

"After that, they seized me and threw me out of the denominational branch and said, 'Get out, you're fired! And that's it.

As if trying to chase away the heavy air, Rita clapped her hands with a clap, clap, clap.

...... I knew I was wrong.

Rita gave a long sigh.

'I get it. I just realized that I wasn't the right person to be the chief priest.

You have a problem with the Order, that's all.

I don't know. When I gave the bishop a spinning kick, I realized that I had been pushing myself too hard in the church. People who can get along with their problems in the church can do so. But I wasn't. This is what happened sooner or later, I'm sure.

Rita stood taller and said with a refreshed look on her face, "Hmmm.

'Maybe it's a good thing I'm realizing this now, because if I had realized it ten or twenty years later, I wouldn't have been able to get it back. I would have been more desperate, I'm sure. I would have been more despairing, I'm sure, to the point where my life would have been ruined. It's all for the best.

Oh, I see.

Well, it can't be helped, and if you're happy with what you've done, so be it.

...... Huh? Why are you kneeling in front of me?

You're holding my hand so lovingly, offering it up to me, touching it with your lips - what are you doing?

"I hereby acknowledge Nagi as my Lord in the name of the 'Covenant' and pledge to serve him as my slave, giving my body, mind and soul. Hopefully, this connection will not be broken in the next life.

...... Rita?

I can't see this collar.

You see?

'This is proof that the 'contract' has been invoked. As soon as I was fired from the Order, I couldn't pay the reward I promised Nagi, so I had to fulfill my other promise, 'If you can't pay me, I'll become a slave or whatever'. This collar is the proof of that. It's the result of the 'contract'.

Then Rita touched the ring on my left hand.

Next to the red crystal ball that was created when I made the contract with Cecil, a cherry-red crystal ball of the same size is created.

─ ─ When did this happen?

You see, Nagi has a strong 'contract' in her: ......

Rita stood up and glanced at me, her cheeks red for some reason, and glanced at me.

'I've made up my mind. 'Come on, master! Don't you dare!

Rita is a little shorter than me.

She's turning bright red and slumped over, her golden fluffy hair swirling around her fingers.

Her shoulders are trembling, as if she's nervous. The clasp of the collar wrapped around her narrow neck is chirping.

Underneath the robe, her bouncy breasts are shaking.

Rita, who was bare-handedly fighting with 'Leviathan', is a skilled fighter. Her body is toned from working out, but where it's showing, it's showing. I look away in a rush, realizing that I'm taking a good look at her from her chest to her waist.

''D-don't be afraid of me! I don't need you to be prepared for me!

I thought about it. I thought about it a lot!

You said you weren't going to be my slave anymore!

'Because I said it out loud, I had a concrete image of what I was really going to do! The part with Nagi and Cecil and all this and that. Then you can go to .......

And then?

...... I didn't hate it when Nagi was with him, so I don't blame you. ...... What are you going to do about it? It's the first time I've ever felt like this! Take responsibility, master!

'What kind of slave would be so superior to that?

'It was Nagi who gave me an outside perspective when all I knew about the Order. You helped me and even gave me advice. She even listened to me this way. And ...... I can tell by looking at you, Cecil, that you care about your slaves! That's why it's okay!

I've been told it's okay to go to ......

And there's nowhere else to go!

You're the one who's being honest!

'You're going to be an adventurer now, aren't you? Me, even though my sacred skills are blocked, my fighting skills are still intact. If Cecil-chan fights in the rear and I in the vanguard, I think the balance would be better?

I couldn't help but choke on the words I was being told.

My goal is 'to somehow survive without giving it my all as much as possible'.

It's not that I want to defeat the Demon King, nor do I want to be the head of an adventurer's guild.

My ultimate goal is to do safe collection-based quests, and in the meantime, gather skills and create skills that I can live without working, that's my ultimate goal.

But as it is, in this world, I really need to have the ability to fight.

Cecil's 'Ancient Language Chanting' is a no-questions-asked cheat skill, but that's at the expense of chanting speed.

I need someone to buy me some time before the magic goes into effect.

That can be done by partying up with someone in the guild, but then my friends will ask me, "How did you guys get your rare skills? You may be searched for "What's the point? I don't think it's easy to find someone who understands what you're talking about, who believes in you, and who you can trust.

In that respect, Rita is a perfect fit.

At least you're a slave 'contractor'. Rita doesn't disobey my orders.

I've seen her combat skills in action. Cecil has taken to Rita.

She doesn't seem to mind me confessing that I'm a visitor from another world.

And you're beautiful.

It's not that I'm not interested in big breasts... but that's beside the point!

I couldn't have asked for anything better than this, but ah, what is it?

This feeling of "I did it".

"I'm in love with you, Rita-san.

"Cecil-chan! I love it.

But it's Nagi's decision.

with a snap

Cecil cut off Rita, who tried to hug him unintentionally, and discarded her with a clean slash.

It's a matter of 'contract' in this area, so you're unforgiving .......

...... What if I insist on saying no?

'That would mean that ...... Nagi would have to give me over to someone else then. We already have a master-servant agreement in place.

...... Huh.

I scratched my head.

Come to think of it, the 'contract' is already in place, and its binding force is working on me.

I have two choices: accept Rita or sell her to someone else.

The answer to the question is: I already know the answer.

But something's bugging me.

I'm not sure if I'm being too easy to deal with for Rita, who was so obsessed with the cult.

I'm sure you'll be able to find it. You have to hide something from me...

Excuse me. I have an interesting story to tell you.

Without a knock, the door to the room opened.

A man in a jeweled priest's uniform came in.

''My name is Argis, Deputy Bishop of the 'Iturna Order'. I'm here to talk about "The Covenant". I would like to purchase the girl there, Rita-Melpheus, for me.
