The next day after the celebration, when I woke up in the dungeon, I felt the temperature on my right side. I woke up thinking that it was natural because Sophia’s problem had not been solved, and then I turned my eyes thinking that she would also wake up.
“Good morning”
Yukino was by my side.
“Why?”
Involuntarily, a question leaked from my mouth, but Yukino shook her head and answered.
“Huh? Because the silver wolf gets up early. I usually wake up at this time. Also, because I have a keen sense, I’ll get up if you move nearby.”
“No, That’s not …”
After the celebration, I should have returned to my dungeon and slept. In fact, I’m still in my dungeon. I remember Yukino sleeping in the super-advanced classroom. But when I looked at her, I knew why Yukino was here, she was wrapped around by my chain.
In other words, she was under the power of my command.
……Huh? Why?
Even if I understood the facts, the mystery only deepened, and when I turn my head fully,
“Ah… Chrono-chan? Who are you talking to… Huh!? Yukino-san!?”
On my left side, Sofia in light clothes gets up.
“Oh, good morning, Sophia”
“Good morning, but why is Yukino-san here!? She also has a chain!”
“That, I don’t know.”
All I can tell is that I was sleeping between them and that they were both holding my arms as pillows. It was a more exciting morning than usual, and I was happy, but now I’m calling it off.
“Well, this kind thing I should go to the castle and ask. I’m heading to Liza-san.”
“Yes, yes, I’m going to change my clothes now!”
“Oh, no, Sophia doesn’t have to hurry. I’ll leave the dungeon doorway, so you can take your time. Yukino, please prepare. Maybe Yukino and me are the ones that have the most to do with it.”
“I understand.”
Then I left my dungeon early with Yukino.
●
The usual drawing-room.
Yukino and I talked to Liza, who was waiting there and asked her to check Yukino’s body and chains. The result was,
“Well, Chrono has enslaved Salamado.”
“Really?”
“Yeah, no doubt.”
The chain was tightly wrapped around Yukino enough to get the endorsement from the Demon King.
“Why did this happen?”
“Maybe when Chrono defeated the Glutton Lizard and took the dragon core that was its body, the control was also transferred with it.”
With that said, Liza saw the dragon core on the table.
I put it out because I was asked to check it together when she examined Yukino, but I don’t think this was the cause.
“Is there a transfer of control authority? I mean, yesterday, Yukino-san said that she was released.”
“I think it’s just settled in the lightest slave setting because Chrono became the owner. Hey, Salamado. Isn’t it painful?”
When Liza asked, Yukino, sitting next to me, shook her head.
“It’s not painful at all. The chain feels thin. Rather, I feel moderately stimulated, and I feel like I’m in good shape as a silver wolf.”
“She was feeling better and was able to use her abilities to the fullest, so I guess that Salamado thought that she was released. In fact, it was just the lightest control setting.”
“I see. In other words, is it a misunderstanding?”
“That’s what it is.”
Well, the misunderstanding is something anyone can have. That’s not something to worry about. There is only one thing to worry about
“Um, I want to cancel this. How can I do it?”
I wonder if this slavery can be lifted. It’s bad to enslave a classmate, but it would be worse to enslave a senior. So, I want to release it immediately.
So, when I asked Liza, she saw the dragon core.
“Because this core is the intermediary. I think the owner, Chrono, should say that the contract is canceled.”
“Oh, is that so easy?”
“If you made a slave contract with ordinary tools, you should be able to cancel it.”
It was good. I thought there was a more complicated procedure.
“Then, I’ll say it. ‘Contract cancellation!’”
The moment I spoke the words, the dragon’s core glowed pale green. The green light tried to extend to the black chain that connected me and Yukino. But…
“-“
The faint light was wiped out with the sound of glass breaking. The black chain that connected me and Yukino remained.
“Why can’t I destroy it?”
“Hmm? I don’t know for the moment. The movement of magical power is stagnant near the wand, so there is a possibility that the fusion damaged the core. So, the contract can be canceled normally. “
“Then … Can I cancel the contract when I pull out this stick or disassemble it successfully?”
“Maybe.”
I see. Apparently, this was because the core and the wand shouldn’t be merged.
“If I destroy the dragon’s core, will the contract be canceled? It’s not such a simple mechanism, isn’t it?”
“I suddenly went in a troublesome direction, but it’s difficult. It’s a system problem after all. But, well, if you can use the counteract wand, both will be solved.”
“Yes, there is a solution right in front of us.”
However, it is difficult to take it out.
It seems that it is necessary to dive even harder into the dungeon of the 10th Demon King and search for a heritage to disassemble.
As I was holding my head and thinking like that, Yukino touched my shoulder. And
“Well, that’s okay. Chrono don’t worry about that. I don’t care.”
She gave me a thumbs up that calmed me.
“Don’t you care? You’re enslaved, right?”
“Yeah, but I haven’t been able to reward Chrono. The situation where I can work for Chrono is just right in a sense.”
She said it with a very serious look.
I’m grateful and respectful for her discipline and the attitude to repay the favor.
“But Yukino-san is an aristocrat. Are you okay with your position?”
“I’m thinking about social and individual positions separately. So, personally I am ok. It’s not socially good, but if you hide it, that’s ok.”
“That’s not okay, generally speaking.”
It feels like Sophia. This is a bad guy on the outside.
“Liza san. I’d like to ask you to keep this secret.”
When I said that, Liza nodded as much as she could.
“That’s right! Also, since this is also an accident, I will continue to support you with all my heart. Please rely on me for anything.”
“Yes, that’s right. Until that happens, I’ll be looking for the heritage in the dungeon positively. Please take care of me, Yukino-san.”
“OK. Take care of me, Chrono.”
In this way, I was motivated to dive into the dungeon of the 10th Demon King with my senior silver wolf.
The next day after the celebration, when I woke up in the dungeon, I felt the temperature on my right side. I woke up thinking that it was natural because Sophia’s problem had not been solved, and then I turned my eyes thinking that she would also wake up.
