My Dungeon Life: Rise of the Slave Harem-Chapter 923
Chapter 923
Something important I had learned in the Twilight Dungeon is that you couldn’t trust anyone that wasn’t under your control. Perhaps that was a harsh lesson, but I had already felt like I lost too much in that dungeon. My bonds with all of my women had been severed, I had been left to die in a world of undead and demons. The Twilight princess had to give her life, and so did Xin. In the end, we only managed to survive by pure luck. Had I not unlocked interdimensional travel at that moment, I would already be dead.
Thus, my view of slavery had changed a great deal. I depended on these bonds. They helped me protect those I cared about, and restrain those that would give me trouble. This bond wasn’t even disadvantageous for those who took it. They’d be gifted with strength and experience boosts. They have me on their side, and if ever there was an emergency, I could come and help them. What was there not to love?
The knights guarding Kaia did not seem to feel this way. Suddenly, they all pulled out hidden daggers from under their armor and stood in front of her. Her mouth was open, her eyes wide in shock. Even Bernice seemed surprised, although both Garnet and Carmine took this as a matter of course.
“Y-you… you’re some kind of Slaver?” Kaia demanded angrily. “You want to enslave these humans after I’ve freed them?”
“You misunderstand.” I shook my head. “I intend to enslave you and your men as well.”
“Me? But… but… I’m Fey!” She seemed to say that like it explained everything.
Even though she was helping humans escape, it seems like she was still a bit haughty. It came with the territory. She was a princess, so how could she not think herself better than others.
“Can Fey’s not be enslaved?” I asked. 𝗳𝒓𝚎e𝚠𝒆𝐛𝐧𝐨v𝚎Ɩ.co𝓶
She gave me a strange look but still answered. “It’s not that a Fey can’t be enslaved, but we are extremely resistant. Someone would have to be many times more powerful to be able to force even a low-level Fey to be enslaved. If you don’t have the Slave Master job, then it is impossible.”
“So, that’s why…” I sighed at answering that dilemma. “However, it shouldn’t be a problem. I may not be able to enslave your Knights, but they follow you, so as long as I can place a bond on you.”
“How dare you!”
“We’ll do it.” Demetri’s voice broke in.
“Leader?” The human boy looked up in shock.
“The alternative is death. The longer we wait, the sooner that death will come. If this man has the power to enslave us and doesn’t fear repercussions from that woman out there, then he might just have the power to save us.”
“B-but… we’ll be slaves again!” The boy protested. “We’ll be no better off than we were.”
“Who says we need to be better off?” The man gave a defeated snort. “To be back where we started, even that could be considered a plus in this situation.”
“B-becoming a slave…” Kaia’s eyes looked distant.
“My lady, you have already done all you can for us.” Demetri sighed. “It seems like running into this person was just the fate of our human race. I will not force your hand for you. Perhaps, if he can truly help us escape, you can avoid retaliation from your sister.”
While he was saying such things, I had already placed a slave seal on the three others. They didn’t put up a resistance. Rather, they looked defeated already. However, when my Slave Mastery started to take effect, their eyes blinked as a new source of strength flowed into them. The boy even looked up at me with a bit of idolization in his eyes. I didn’t want to influence him in such a way, but it wasn’t like we had time. 𝙛𝑟𝑒e𝘸𝑒𝗯𝘯𝗼𝘃el.𝒄𝒐m
“Fine! I’ll do it!” Kaia cried out. “I won’t leave you all to this man!”
“My lady!” One of the guards said.
“No… it’s fine. Enslave me! But if you fail to protect us, then we will all die together!”
