I grabbed my magic sword, Reggie, which I had left on the ground.
One swing. If they donât move, I donât miss.
The black shadow disappeared in two pieces.
âSo this is what the curse on Rafiliaâs skills really is.
âYouâre right, it must have possessed him.â
Reggie replied, still in his sword form.
âIâve seen the whole thing. It seems that she became an experimental subject for theâskill that intereferes with fateâ.It built into her, probably to control good and bad luck by concentrating misfortune on a âPillar of Humanityâ â in order to keep the rest of the world at peace.â
âFor example, in a village, only the area around Rafilia is unhappy, but the rest of the village is happy?â
Iâm sure it is like this.
âOr send Rafilia to the Demon Lordâs army to spread misfortune among the demons.â
âThe wisdom of the elves can do that much?â
I wonder what it is it that makes someone scared of being happy and joyful?
âIsnât this to get her used to misery? If you donât have any hope in the first place, you wonât despair.â
âThat sucks.â
âI agree.â
That would mean that Rafilia was a victim of such an experiment.
The fact that Rafilia washed up in the port town means that she was either abandoned like Elder Slime, or was in the middle of an ongoing experiment that âŚI canât confirm it. Either way, sheâs being treated like a tool, isnât she?
Even if itâs for the sake of fighting the Demon Lord, it sucks.
Itâs even worse than visitors who are summoned from another world and made to be disposable.
âUnacceptable! This is outrageous!â
The magic sword Reggie trembled as if it was indignantly lashing out from the bottom of its heart.
âHow dare they put such a beautiful girl through so much misery!? It is common sense that such a girl should be loved and loved and loved! Her tears must be from love and pleasure! How dare they implant a skill that causes misfortune and make her shed tears of sorrow! They should be ashamed of themselves!â
âI agree with you about the first and last lines. Reggie.â
Rafilia was lying on the ground, breathing heavily.
Her nightgown barely covers her stomach and below, and itâs all soggy from sweat.
Every time she makes a small gesture, the collarâs clasp clicks, and Rafilia smiles happily each time.
Rafiliaâs happiness is⌠to be dominated, isnât it?
I wonder what will happen to that.
Anyway, the skill rewrite was a success. The [Bad Luck LV3] is gone.
Touching yourself or others with your hands washes away their misfortune (brings in good luck).
The activation time is a few minutes. During this time, the parameters of the âluckâ will increase rapidly.
As a result, your attack, defense, and magic resistance will be reduced to zero for ten minutes after the effect of the skill ends.
Limited number of uses. It takes a few days to recharge after use.
This is Rafiliaâs rewritten skill.
[Slave Summoning LV1] (UR)
The skill of âattractingâ the body to the surroundings.
A slave of your choice can be summoned to the master.
The summoned slave knows the exact coordinates of the master and will come to the master âno matter the situationâ. Therefore, be careful on how to use them.
In addition, the summoned slave cannot leave the masterâs side for a while.
Use: Once a day.
This is my new skill.
[Annihilate Bad Luck] is a high-risk, high-reward skill that increases your luck.
Considering the risk of having zero defense or resistance, Iâm going to have an unbelievable amount of luck.
I donât think Iâll have a chance to use [Slave Summoning]. Cecil, Rita, and Aine are all always with me. I think I can use it to summon the magic sword Reggie, though.
âIâve been caught in the darkness.â
Rafilia murmured absentmindedly.
âYes. But you can cancel the contract right away.â
I used my own nightgown to cover Rafiliaâs body.
As I said at the beginning, Rafilia is a slave for 200 Arusha. So, sheâll only be a slave for a month or two at most.
Once she is free, sheâll be able to find a new âRafilia Graceâ.
You see, there are people who quit their jobs and wonder why they ever did that in the first place.
With this in mind, I picked up the parchment that had fallen to the ground.
The price for Rafiliaâs âskill searchâ that was written thereâŚ
11200 Arsha
âHuh?â
I looked at the back of the parchment.
When I looked closely, I saw that the ink was smudged on the numbers.
I placed it at the base of the tree, so the dew fell and the ink flowed. As if it had been measured, it created the number 11. I rubbed it with my finger, but it didnât disappear. Is it possible that this is an official contract from the âContractâ ceremony, and that the god effect is in effect?
âI suppose the âGod of Contractsâ must have recognized it as a certificate of the âContractâ.
âItâs not a coincidence, is it, Reggie? Iâm not sure if this is the effect of Rafiliaâs [Bad Luck]?â
âProbably.â
The humanoid Reggie, who had appeared with a pop, nodded.
âIt was dark for her to be a slave until she realized her true nature. It was also unfortunate for the Lord to continue to dominate her. So here we are.â
I knew it was right to rewrite that skill as quickly as possible.
This was in a short period of time, from the time Rafilia wrote down the amount to the time we âsigned the contractâ.
I donât knowâŚwhat would have happened if I had just left it alone.
âI wonder if I can use [Bad Luck Annihilation Level 1] to erase this.â
âImpossible.â
âBecause itâs a God-level contract?â
âYes.â
âSo, now whatââ
âItâs not like sheâs unhappy being your slave.â
âI donât have a choice now, do I?â
Well, we canât talk about it right now even if weâre worried about it.
I picked up Rafiliaâs body, wrapped in nightgown.
When I shook her lightly, Rafilia woke up and noticed her outfitâŚ
âHa, ha. You canât do that! Not in front of Mastaaa!
She was flabbergasted, her face bright red.
I explained to Rafilia about my skills, and told her about the contract price.
Rafilia was surprised, but she could see her skills on her own now.
And then it happened, the third time she got on her  knees.
âI canât thank you enough for changing my fate.â
Rafilia decided to get down on her knees in such a spectacular way that I wanted to put âElf Dogezaâ in the dictionary.
âI, Rafilia Grace, intend to devote my body and soul to Master until I repay his kindness!â
After making this declaration with a refreshing clarityâŚ
âAnd also, I know I said something strange earlier, but I think it was because of the darkness. I was not the ârealâ me then. Iâm the righteous Rafilia-Grace who protects everyone!â
âHuh? Master, why do you have such scary gentle eyes? Oh, please donât touch my head. If youâre going to stroke me ,âŚplease pat me on the collar. I love it when Master touches me. Huh?â
She walked next to me (and Reggie), wobbling around like she was doing some kind of weird dance.
