“If you don’t have a good relationship with your family members, why not become independent?”

“Independence?”

“Have you ever thought about it? “You’re an adult now, so there’s no reason to be tied to your family.”

Shine’s family can now be safe.

Of course, it will be difficult to put my opinion into practice right away.

“Independence should be good. However, I received a lot of help from my family when I was young. So it is impossible to become independent right now. “You have to pay for what you get.”

Sure enough, Shine says no.

It is natural for families to try to get a return on their investment.

But it was necessary to prepare little by little from now on.

The first thing to do is to make your family independent.

“How long are you going to keep talking about grace and doing what you’re told? “Looking at those people today, it doesn’t seem like they really value receiving grace, but it seems like the grace they owed will be multiplied dozens of times over time.”

The treatment given to Shine’s benefactors is poor, so how ridiculous is it to ask them to repay the favor owed to them several times over?

When I pinched that part again, Shine’s eyes became cold.

“Probably so. “It doesn’t make sense to ask people to repay the favors they owe them several times over and then ask why they are repaying other favors.”

“I’m not telling you to get out of the family right now. “I meant to prepare you to establish a foundation in the military and escape your family.”

“I’ll think about it seriously.”

“If you need help, tell me. I am the sponsor of the unit you will join anyway. “Don’t you think there will be any difference if you take it from now on?”

“… “Thank you, even if just for words.”

My mind seemed complicated, as if I couldn’t organize my thoughts easily.

“Anyway, I’m going to need someone to carry this. “It’s bigger than I thought.”

“Ah, you don’t have to worry about that.”

I started putting items into the item book in front of Shine as a way to tell him not to worry.

“and!”

“This way, you don’t have to lift it and move it.”

I wanted to explain it to Shine, who was looking at me curiously, but it was a monster encyclopedia and an item encyclopedia. How would I understand that?

It was all a setting in a game, and I had no intention of telling people in this world such strange things.

I smiled happily as I watched the items slowly entering the encyclopedia.

At this level, you can say that 85% has been filled, but if you fill only the remaining 15%, you will receive a large reward.

Since the remaining 15% were items that were not easy to obtain, it was unclear when I would be able to complete the encyclopedia.

“It’s almost there.”

“I just chose the rest to use.”

“You’re using these junk? ah! “Is there anything you were trying to get?”

“There was.”

Although it wasn’t an object targeting spirits, I found an object that did the job I was looking for.

“Very well! Which of these is it?”

“This is it.”

I opened my palm and showed what I had in my hand.

“Isn’t that just trash? “The jewel was broken.”

“no.”

An old necklace resting in the palm of my hand.

Although it may look old and useless on the outside, I can’t tell you how surprised I was when I discovered this.

I didn’t know this would be here, so I grabbed it as soon as I saw it and didn’t let it go.

The item I was trying to get was much less effective than this.

It wasn’t easy to get something with this level of performance, so I lowered my goal, but I ended up getting the item I really wanted.

‘That’s also something that appeared in the main scenario.’

I can’t tell you how fortunate I am to have this in my hands.

If this falls into the hands of a monster, it will cause enormous damage.

‘I don’t know why it’s here, but it was left unattended in a warehouse, so it could easily fall into the hands of a monster.’

Humans didn’t know how to use this object, but monsters were lucky enough to know how to use it.

‘A necklace containing the seductive voice of the Siren Queen.’

The Siren Queen’s voice contained such strong mental control that it could enchant even the mentally strong ‘awakened’.

And after the monster cleverly learned how to use this necklace, it used its power against people.

That is the beginning of the main part, where there are people who side with the monsters.

‘In the game, it ends with us hearing a strange rumor and going and solving it… .’

It is at the end of the part that we learn that the reason the monster was able to manipulate people was because of this object.

As she fights the boss monster without knowing that fact, the necklace is destroyed, and the Siren Queen’s voice contained within it no longer flows out.

The main scenario part ends with the statement that it is better to destroy an object capable of powerful mind control… .

‘It was so deceptive that the producer probably wrote the scenario to destroy it on purpose.’

The problem is that I got my hands on this item before it was destroyed.

With just this, the Damon problem could be solved neatly.

‘If I sign a contract with A, won’t I be able to use his power and the power I saw in the Erintina scenario?’

Perhaps, when a monster appears in the future, I might not have to run away helplessly.

* * *

I received my items from Shine and entered the lodging I was guided to.

I wanted to leave right away, but I decided to stay one night before that.

It was obvious that Shine would be disappointed if he just took the items.

As soon as I entered the room, I took out the box and unlocked it.

Beep?

Damon, whose job it was to be locked in a box all day, glared at me with evil eyes as soon as he opened the box.

“How are you?”

This guy is so annoyed that he doesn’t even look at me.

“I came here to negotiate with you, but you’re not going to answer like this? “You don’t want to live in a box your whole life.”

Bye?

He finally looked at me, as if my offer was quite tempting.

“Make a contract with me.”

Beep-beep?

Damon’s reaction was unexpectedly lukewarm, perhaps because he thought I had no intention of signing a contract.

I took out the necklace.

Since I have taken ownership of the necklace, the Siren Queen’s voice will not be a threat to me.

Bye?

The moment when the guy who hadn’t yet figured out the situation tilted his head.

♪♪♬♩♬~

A sound that was not human language echoed in the room.

After hearing the Siren Queen’s voice, Damon’s eyes widen and he looks into space.

‘As expected, I’m fascinated.’

Now all that was left was to sign an unfair contract with Damon, who had no choice but to answer ‘yes’ to what I said.

And I was planning to make sure there was no way for this guy to escape as much as possible.

“You must agree with everything I say from now on. got it?”

Bye

“When I ask a question, if you get it right, you cry once, and if you get it wrong, you cry twice.”

Bye

“Okay, let me ask you a question now. “Do you have to extract the life force of a living person to gain strength?”

Pap Pap Pap Pap Pap Pap Pap Pap Ppt

“Is it possible to gain power by extracting a monster’s life?”

Bye

I thought so too.

However, the reason they committed massacre was probably because taking human life and eating it was much less difficult.

“Do you have a grudge against humans?”

Pap Pap Pap Pap Pap Pap Pap Pap Ppt

“Is the reason you took away people’s life force simply because it was convenient?”

Bye

Yes, this guy is ultimately not worthy of sympathy.

“If you become stronger, can you force yourself to break the promises you made when you signed the contract?”

Pap Pap Pap Pap Pap Pap Pap Pap Ppt

No matter how powerful this guy was, it seemed like he couldn’t break the promise he made when signing the contract.

This was a good story for me.

“You said you would take revenge on the person who sealed you. “Is there a target for that revenge?”

Bye

“I remember you said earlier that you don’t have any grudges against humans, but you couldn’t have lied. The target of your revenge must be a specific person. “Do you still think you must take revenge?”

Bye

Because he had someone to seek revenge on, he made a contract with Erintina, drove her crazy, and slaughtered her.

I wanted to hear a specific answer about who the target of revenge was, but I couldn’t understand what this guy was saying.

If you want to talk to this guy, you have to make a contract.

“Let’s make a contract. I will support you with a ‘monster’ that can periodically draw strength. You must lend me your power, and only be able to use it on targets I designate. Do you agree?”

Bye

A guy who can only answer in the affirmative agrees to an unfair contract.

Of course, this alone does not mean that it is an unfair contract.

There are still a lot of contract details to be made with this guy.

“You shouldn’t lie to the contractor. It’s a relationship that requires building trust. It’s natural. “Don’t you agree?”

Bye

“You think to yourself that you cannot do anything that would harm me. I can’t even think about it, and I can’t threaten myself by getting someone else to do it. Do you agree?”

Bye

“You must attack only the targets I designate. You cannot attack someone with whom you have a friendly relationship. “Of course you will agree to this, right?”

Bye

One by one.

Build up conditions.

You have to set the conditions as meticulously as possible to prevent this guy from thinking about anything else.

‘This is something that requires careful attention, so you have to do it meticulously.’

After talking about the conditions for a while, getting consent, and preparing for any unexpected situations, the contract with the guy went ahead.

“Now let’s make a contract.”

Bye

Broadly speaking, the terms of our contract were that I would provide him with live monsters at regular intervals so that he could recover his strength, and that he would cooperate with me in all other activities.

If it had been Damon’s original personality, he would never have signed a contract like this.

In addition, he promised to tell me completely and truthfully about his grudge.

After signing the contract, I plan to awaken the Siren Queen from her spell on the voice, but I was very curious about her vivid reaction.

‘How angry must you be that you made an unbreakable contract with me, who you hate so much?’

Still, there’s probably nothing he can do.

Since we didn’t take the time to carefully set up the conditions, there was no way for him to escape.
