——Kalin never knew what value she had in this family.

Although she was once a gifted strong person, after losing all her companions and becoming disabled, fate had already sentenced her to death.

However, she lost all her power and eventually became a slave. When her life was about to come to an end, she encountered a miracle she had never expected——

[I don’t need this kind of thing, so I’ll use it on you. ]

It was a secret treasure inherited from the war thousands of years ago. It can give dying people a "second chance" to regain their lives. It was originally a life-saving item that only princes, nobles, or wealthy merchants could have.

——But the young master of the Marquis family used that thing on a worthless slave like me.

[Healed? I accidentally tore up your contract just now, so you can leave if you want. I don’t care. ]

He clearly used a secret treasure worth thousands of gold coins on me, but he didn’t ask for anything in return?

Even if he asked me to offer my body, I would not have any objection. But not only did he have no interest in this, he even chose to spend money to hire me, who was almost useless, and gave me a place to stay.

Even if I gave my whole life to this favor, I might not be able to repay it.

"...I didn't intend to ask you to do anything from the beginning."

——But I heard such an answer.

That person never had any expectations of me, nor did he care whether I could create any value.

It was as if he just took in a stray animal and didn't think about getting anything from me.

...Why?

"But you...if you didn't use the scroll on me at that time, you should have..."

"You have already used it, there is no point in talking about this now, right?"

...No, if I didn't exist from the beginning, the young master could have sold the scroll and didn't need to worry about the funds at all.

That's right, it's because of me... The reason why the young master is so distressed now is because I, who is useless, wasted his property in vain.

"Anything else? If not, go and rest. You have to get up early tomorrow. Don't waste too much energy."

"...Yes."

--I had clenched my teeth unconsciously, and my fingers were clenched into fists.

This humiliation and unwillingness, like a rope tightened around her throat, bound Karin's heart in suffocating pain.

...

Aarons got up early the next day.

According to the records on the calendar, he estimated that he had at most fifteen days before he was summoned.

During this time, he had to gain at least some popularity before he could ask the emperor to keep part of his territory.

But this kind of thing can't be solved by just talking.

"Where's Karin? Hasn't she gotten up yet?"

"I made her a new set of clothes suitable for combat yesterday. She should still be adjusting it now."

"...Is this the power of personal hobbies?"

Aarons has indeed known for a few days that Xia Ye really has an immeasurable passion for making clothes.

This witch, who has lived for a thousand years, may have kept her spirit from being worn out in loneliness because of this hobby.

"If you want to hear my experience in making clothes, I can find a day to tell you."

"If you want to listen to a day, then forget it!"

Because when it comes to clothes, this expressionless beauty will talk three times as much, so Aarons didn't dare to discuss this topic with her at all.

Just as the two were chatting at the door, the red-haired and brown-skinned wolf beauty finally appeared in front of them.

"Sorry to keep you waiting, young master."

——After seeing Karin's new outfit, Aarons' eyes lit up.

The black-based long-sleeved jacket was opened casually, revealing the white low-cut round-neck shirt inside without any concealment.

The combination of slim trousers like motorcycle riders and pointed thick-heeled leather boots further highlights the curves of the already slender and tight legs.

"...Is this also done by magic?"

"Magic, isn't it wonderful?"

Karin felt a little embarrassed when she realized that Aarons's eyes had been scanning her body several times.

However, she did not make any moves to cover up, but showed her charm as naturally as possible - even if she was not as magnificent as Xia Ye, her well-trained and graceful figure was enough to attract others' attention.

At this time, Aarons was already moved to tears.

This kind of beautiful sister with animal ears, black skin and sports styleSister, even women will look at you a few more times when you go out!

So what if you can't fight? Just putting it at home is pleasing to the eyes!

"Very good, I think it's quite suitable."

However, Aarons didn't intend to express these extra feelings in his heart.

He pinched his nose casually first, suppressed all the distracting thoughts in his heart, and then gave his evaluation calmly.

"It's getting late, we will leave now. The family affairs will be left to you, Xia Ye."

"Yes, I wish you all the best."

Without further delay at home, Aarons and Karin quickly left the Marquis's Mansion and walked towards the meeting point outside the city.

Because it was still early in the morning, there were not many people on the street. So Aarons quickly crossed the city and came to the east gate.

When the two walked out of the city gate, they found two beast-carrying carts with strange markings, which had been waiting here early.

"Hey, young master, you're here really early. Is this lady going with you?"

"She said she wanted to join the battle, so I brought her here. Is there a problem?"

"Of course not. Please get on the train first. It will take several hours to travel three hundred miles."

Even with the fastest pack animal, it would take at least three hours to pull a car for three hundred miles.

After Aarons and Karin boarded one of the cars, the head of the group, Kuran, who came to greet them in person, also walked into their car, as if he wanted to talk about something.

"Young master, how much do you know about the magic source stone?"

"I haven't learned this knowledge specifically, I only know some basic common sense."

"Then while we're on the road, I'll tell you about this thing."

Aarons didn't know why there was no means of transportation similar to trains in this technologically advanced world. He only had a superficial understanding of the magic source stone, which was widely used as energy in this world, and didn't understand the principles of the technology at all.

——But since someone is willing to explain, he doesn't mind taking this opportunity to make up for it.
