Reincarnated to Bonk in Another World

Albert kept running as long as he had enough stamina left. Even Shella was impressed by Albert's determination.

They didn't have many breaks and when they were on break, Shella protected him to the best of her ability, making sure there were no monsters in the area, especially during the night when Albert slept. She had no need for a break or a sleep anyway, so she could protect him. This was why Yale insisted on Albert bringing Shella with him.

After three days, Albert came to realize that his stamina had increased a little bit from the fact he lasted a bit longer when he ran. His speed also slightly increased.

However, he saw that his EXP or Level didn't have a change, meaning that he could still get stronger without actually leveling up.

He had been relying on his level this whole time to the point he believed the increase of his power solely came from level.

Now that he had proved his doubt, there was one thing he could do.

When he reached the entrance of the forest that surrounded the volcano, Albert asked, "Shella. Do you have anything to test Magic Power in one's body?"

"I can check it as long as you don't fight back. I only need to pour my Magic Power into your body. As long as you don't pour your Magic Power, I should be able to sense it."

"Can you check my body for me?"

"Yes, I can, but you need to know that it's impossible for me to accurately measure your Magic Power, Milord. Only a rough guess."

"I don't mind. What should I do?"

"Extend your hand. I will do the rest."

Without hesitation, Albert raised his hand and extended it to Shella.

Shella held Albert's lower and upper arms with both hands and poured her Magic Power into his body. However, her jaw suddenly dropped to the ground.

She was taken aback by what she had seen inside Albert's body. "Impossible. Doesn't Milord have Magic Power in your body? How? You have used Spells… Even a 4-Star one!"

Albert sighed and finally got his answer. "I see. So, that's how it is…"

"Milord?"

Albert thought for a moment and looked at Shella. Unlike any other person, Shella was adept in research, so she should understand his current situation if he gave some information. At the same time, she wasn't bound by contracts like a slave, so there was a chance that she would talk about it in the future.

However, Shella didn't seem to be someone that would betray him, so he wished to learn more about his body with her cooperation.

Albert hesitated for a moment and asked, "Can you keep this a secret? What I want to share with you is something important to me."

"!!!" Shella opened her mouth and fell silent for a while. After that, she clapped her hand and formed a four-winged symbol with a big eye in the middle together. However, the eye suddenly detached itself and flew to Albert's palm while the rest of the symbol was planted on the back of her skull.

"Shella?"

"I have been researching a way to stop the lust. It seems that one of the ways to stop lust is the slave contract, but it's just a failure. There are three types of slave contracts. First, the slave is requesting to become a slave with a certain condition. Second, the slave is willing to accept you as their master without any condition. Third, self slaving, which means the slave brands themselves as your slave.

"The difference between the second and third is that the second one needs the master's permission while the third one doesn't. However, the third one means that the contract is unbreakable. Once you become a slave, you will be a slave for the rest of your life.

"As for the first one, it's the normal contract for slave traders." Shella looked at Albert and stated, "Milord… No, Master. Shella is willing to be your slave."

"Huh, Shella? What's wrong with you?" Albert raised his eyebrows. "Is there any reason for you to be my slave?"

"I have died once, and my time is limited in this world. I have realized that what Milord is trying to share is your biggest secret. This is also a goal of mine, but more importantly, I believe that Master is the one that I have been searching for.

"Since Master wishes to open this secret, I will naturally benefit from it and can improve my research even further. Hence, I will use the rest of my time to serve you. After all, the moment I finish my research, I won't be able to stay in this world any longer."

Shella didn't have feet, so she lowered her head as much as possible. "Shella greets her master."

Albert's expression became serious, not knowing how the situation turned from 0 to 100 with just this secret. He knew that slaves had more binding power than subordinates. This meant she swore to never betray him for the rest of her life.

He took a deep breath and nodded. "I understand. I'll be in your care, Shella."

"Yes, Master."

Albert then summoned his Bonk Bat and handed it to her. "Can you check this then?"

Shella received the Bonk Bat and scanned it before opening her mouth in terror. "This is… What is this… I have never seen something like this. The Bonk Bat is actually holding a tremendous amount of power?

"With this kind of power, you will be able to use a 9-Star Spell if you wish for it."

Albert smiled, expecting this answer. After all, with the difference between the 1-Star and 4-Star Spell, he thought a single use of 9-Star Spell would be possible with 3000 Bonk Bites.

"Don't tell me. Has Master been using this power to release all your spells? I still don't understand how this works. This is only Master's power since it's obvious you've granted it to us. But our Bonk Bats are different from you.

"And I believe that this Bonk Bat is connected to you since you can use the Space Ability to summon and recall it."

Albert smiled and glanced at the dark sky. "It's going to be a long night. I will tell you about it while we rest here. We will go inside the forest tomorrow."

"Understood."
