Chapter 25:　Claire’s Feeling

My name is Claire. I’m a beastman from the cat tribe who turns 15 this year, also I’m Master’s slave.

I met Master for the first time in the carriage carrying the slaves. There were three reactions of the people who looked at slave so far. One where it’s like they’re looking at something dirty, one whose eyes tainted with desire, and one who acts like the slave is not even there.

However, Master’s reaction is different from those. After being surprised, he quietly observes me, while glancing at my ears and tail with excited looks.

At that time I do think it’s slightly unpleasant. However after he talks to me during camp guard, I no longer felt like that.

As there are a lot of people in similar situation like me, when I heard about the life story of a common slaves, I was a bit sad. That night, although we received the goblin’s surprise attack, Master knocks them down one after another alone, annihilating the goblins before they could even do anything to me.

From that time Master is already extremely strong. There’s rarely anyone who could master the way of the sword and magic at the same time.

When Master takes the slaves that survived to the Koper town, he said he will free us as well as give us some money. I couldn’t believe it at first. Other people would usually monopolize the property of the slave dealer alter selling us.

The other slave who that survived with me, Golum-san of the lizard tribe greatly expressed his gratitude after Master give him freedom. Although Master said he would free me too, I don’t want to leave Master’s side.

There’s also the favor that he saved my life. Not to mention it’s hard to face my family who sold me. I also don’t have any confidence to live alone. Anyways there are many reasons for that. However, the most important reason is that I wanted to further devote myself to this gentle person.

Once again I contracted as Master slave, and I also registered as adventurers with Master. Master bought one of the most expensive equipment for me. I worry myself as his slave as I’ve never heard of anything like this.

That night, when I was trying to do the only thing I can do to Master who’s a man as a way to repay his kindness, he just pat my head gently while saying such a thing is unnecessary. Looking at the trembling me, he might have known that I was scared. I was really touched, as I swore in my heart to follow this person forever.

On the way to gather the medicinal herbs for our first quest, we met with Amyl-san and Lelena-san.

Amyl-san was always in full vigor, lightening the atmosphere of the party. Lelena-san had the quite adult-like feeling to her, sometimes stopping Amyl-san before he does something stupid.

After handling our first quest, due to some event we need to go into the dungeon. It all starts when the application for silver-rank quest that Amyl-san took, it seems like a dissatisfaction had raised from another party of three.

They said some sarcastic things, treating us like idiot, a truly troublesome people. But Master was angry at that time. We wanted to do this quest for the high payment.Although it should have naturally led to a fight, Master handled in with a cool head. If we became stronger there won’t be any problem after all.

Master has a mysterious skill called [Experience Value Up]. although I don’t really understand how, this skill seems to give us multiple times the normal experience value given. We only dive into the dungeon for a bit, but it’s already possible for the me who didn’t know how to fight to be able to reach Level 20 and becomes a Silver-rank adventurer.

Although we had handled the quest when we exit the dungeon, those three people that we have a quarrel with suddenly attacked. At first I thought that we’re done for when that fire ball magic came flying at us, but Master obstruct it like it was nothing.

It became a fight against that three person group. Although at first I don’t have any confidence that we could win, we seemed to have become way stronger than we expected. I have that much confidence now that we’re able to defeat Silver-class adventurer.

Master seems to have already expects this situation, and had already prepared some countermeasures. Masked people who’s likely the people of the Merchant guild suddenly appeared, as it seems that he will testify that we were attacked. In addition, he will also handles the survived female magician that we caught.

There are a lot of points leading me to think of this, but I think Master is really great.

Really, who on earth is Master? He’s skillful in both sword and magic, as well as having skills that I’ve never heard of. He’s like the hero who only appears in fairy tale. No matter who master is, I will serve him for as long as I live, I once again swore that in my heart.
