Episode 36

-Knock knock knock…

“Leon, I brought you some food, shall we go in?”

-Squeak…

Alice didn’t wait for my answer and came into the room carrying a tray of food.

-Click…

Alice, who had brought a tray of food to my bed, sat down next to me as if it were natural.

I’ve been unconscious for two days, so today the smell of food tastes even better.

My mouth is watering…

“Thank you, I’ll eat well.”

I thanked Alice and raised my hand to grab the spoon, but my fingers felt weak.

-Brrr…

“Ah.”

“Haha…I’ll help you.”

-Dalgrak…

Alice picked up a spoon, scooped up some soup, and brought it to her mouth.

“Okay, ah~”

“…”

I was a little embarrassed, but since there was no way to eat food other than squeezing the plate like a dog, I obediently accepted the food Alice fed me.

Since I wasn’t eating with my own hands, some of the soup got on my lips and dripped onto my clothes, but with Alice’s help, I was able to finish the entire bowl.

“Did you eat well?”

-Whack…Whack…

“Yeah, thank you.”

Alice took out a handkerchief and wiped the soup off my mouth. She carefully kept the handkerchief she used to wipe my mouth.

“There’s a little soup spilled on your clothes, I’ll help you change them.”

“Ah, no, you don’t have to go that far…”

“Leon, it’s hard to move by yourself, and if you lie down again, the bed will get dirty.”

“Okay.”

-Rustling…

When Alice was my exclusive maid, it was natural for her to change my clothes, so I surrendered my body to her without much resistance.

-Slurp…

The moment Alice took off my top with her familiar hand movements…

“Oh my god…what a strange place…!”

“Ah.”

I heard Alice’s breath catch in surprise at the sight of my scar from behind, along with a wet voice.

“This is…this is too much…how can you make a person like this…sob…!”

Alice, stroking the hideously distorted scar on her back with trembling hands, began to sob in a voice full of anger and sadness.

“…I’m okay, I don’t feel any pain.”

“Who…Who made this? Could it be that woman?”

Alice asks, her voice filled with anger.

“…Alice.”

Alice shook her head and called her name, hoping that he would not ask her about the past anymore…

[say.]

Alice gave me an order as if she absolutely had to find the culprit.

“…The Duke of Normandy was punished for committing a crime against nature.”

“…”

-Keep going…

Alice hugged my back in silence for a while.

‘It’s warm.’

Now, even if someone touched me, I couldn’t feel it properly, but I could feel Alice’s warm body temperature.

#

“Four hundred and ninety-eight…four hundred and ninety-nine…five hundred…!”

It took a week for my body to fully recover.

While doing push-ups for rehabilitation training in the open space above Violet Top, with his top completely exposed to prevent his clothes from getting soaked with sweat, his body was drenched in sweat and glistening in the sunlight.

“Whew… Next is squats.”

Following my father’s teaching that the lower body is the most important, I decided to do just a thousand light squats today.

“Leon, here’s a towel to wipe away your sweat.”

Alice follows me out and watches me exercise from the side, wondering what’s so funny about it.

“Thank you, Alice.”

I took a towel from Alice and wiped my sweaty, glistening body.

-Whack…Whack…

-Gulp…

When I turned around to hear a strange sound from Alice, I saw that Alice was blushing and fanning herself with her hand, perhaps feeling hot from the sunlight.

“If it’s hot, don’t stay here and go inside. I’m exercising. Isn’t it boring to watch? ”

“No, it’s okay. Give me a towel.”

Alice snatched the towel from me and carefully placed it in a small basket.

“And last time, you told Leonna to exercise, teach me.”

“Well, you don’t have much muscle, but I’ll teach you some exercises that women can do too.”

“Is it something like the ‘short-legged exercise’ that was supposed to make you taller in the old days?”

“How was it? Was it effective?”

“There isn’t any?”

“You didn’t really believe you’d grow taller until now, did you?”

“…”

Alice’s expression darkened slightly.

“…Really?”

I believe that.

Afterwards, I taught Alice some simple strength training, but Alice, who followed my posture, did not take her eyes off me with suspicion.

##

“Now that Leon’s body has fully recovered, I will begin the ‘treatment’ again.”

Alice came to my room at night and suggested that we continue the treatment we had been doing before.

“I’m going to try to be more serious this time.”

“How?”

“I want to change my title.”

“Title?”

Alice spoke to me with a slightly expectant expression.

“Yes, from now on, Leon will call me ‘Master’.”

“You’re not just saying that because you want to hear it?”

“Oh, no?”

Anyone can see that he wants to be called ‘Master’.

“Well, it’s true that I’m Alice’s slave, so do whatever you want.”

“Really? Leon agreed, so there’s no going back on his word later! ”

“Yeah.”

[From now on, call me master.]

“…!”

No, I was going to call you master even without giving you the order in the contract…

It feels a bit different when you are forced to call someone ‘master’ rather than voluntarily.

“This, this is also part of the treatment, so don’t misunderstand.”

“Yes, sir.”

“Hehehe…I really became Leon’s master…”

Since Alice is so happy, I don’t think it would be a bad idea to hang out with her for a while.

###

One late night, Alice was lying in bed with her nose pressed against the towel Leon had used to wipe away his sweat during the day.

“Ugh…haa…Leon…Leon…!”

-Rust…rustling…

Alice continued to rub her thighs, smelling Leon’s scent all over the towel.

“Haa…Leon called me master…”

Judging from Leon’s reaction, he didn’t seem to have any particular resistance to calling her master.

“Now I am truly the master of Leon…”

Alice closed her eyes and recalled Leon’s voice calling her “master” just a moment ago.

‘Master…’

“Sigh…!”

Leon felt his body heat up as he imagined himself kneeling at Alice’s feet and kissing the top of her foot.

“It’s just beginning… Don’t rush, there’s plenty of time.”

If you give Leon too harsh orders from the beginning, he might get hurt and not open his heart to her anymore.

From the moment Leon calls her master, she should slowly and gradually increase the intensity of the orders she gives to Leon.

If you keep giving orders to Leon like that, he might end up leaving everything up to Alice one day, like getting wet in a drizzle.

“Hehehe… Wait Leon, I’ll cover up all the wounds I received from that dirty, cheap bitch… Ss …

-Kuuuk…

-Brrr…!

Finally, Alice took a deep breath and enjoyed Leon’s scent. She hugged the towel tightly and closed her eyes, shivering.

####

-Choosh… swoosh…

“Wake up, Leon.”

I opened my eyes to Alice’s voice waking me up.

“…Good morning, Master.”

I wiped my lips that were glistening with saliva and said good morning to Alice.

“Hehehe…I’m eating breakfast.”

-Click…

“I’ll eat well.”

The moment I picked up a spoon from the plate Alice had brought me and was about to eat the soup full of the fragrant aroma of cheese…

[Wait a minute, stop.]

-Stop!

At Alice’s command, my body came to a complete halt.

“Master…?”

“I’ll feed you.”

“…Why?”

It could be because I was sick a week ago and couldn’t eat on my own, but now that I’ve fully recovered, you’re trying to feed me.

“Master, it is your duty and right to take care of your slave’s body. Please obey me obediently.”

“No, I’m healthy now…”

[Quiet.]

“…”

“From now on, I will ‘manage’ all of Leon’s meals.”

Alice spoke to me in a firm voice, as if she would not accept any objections.

-Dalgrak…

Alice, her amethyst eyes sparkling, picked up the spoon and brought it to my mouth.

“Okay, ah~”

Alice was feeding me food and making such a happy expression, so I decided to give her whatever she wanted for the time being.

“Yum…”

A soup full of the rich flavor of cheese enveloped my tongue.

“Hehehe…good job~”

-Tsdam tsdam…

As I put the spoon Alice was holding in my mouth and swallowed its contents, Alice smiled brightly and began to stroke my head.

“Is it delicious?”

-Nod…

“Okay, back again~”

“Yum…”

I continued to eat the food Alice fed me until I emptied my bowl.

.

.

After finishing my meal, I went out to the open space at the top with Alice and moved my body.

“Hoo…”

After finishing strength training, my whole body is covered in sweat.

“Leon, here’s a towel.”

“Thank you, master.”

“Hooheung…”

Alice’s mouth twitches cutely every time I call her “master.”

-Swoosh…Swoosh…

He wiped his sweaty body with a towel and picked up the sword he had placed in the corner of the empty lot.

-Boom! Clang!

He swung his sword lightly once and adjusted his posture several times to check his body condition.

‘I feel light.’

I thought my body would be stiff because I hadn’t been able to properly hold a sword for a while, but the sword and I moved naturally as if we were one body.

I closed my eyes for a moment and recalled the battle with Dargon, the mercenary captain of the Night Echo Corps.

At that time, I recalled the feeling of sending mana through the blood to the sword, and concentrated my mind to send mana to the sword.

The flow of mana that started from the core of the heart was transmitted through the blood vessels and mana circuits to the arms and fingertips…

“Oh oh?!”
