A gun floating in the middle of the boat sang. Joren looked at it with a darkened expression while Kidrith with confusion.
"Your weapon… it's bizarre…" there were so many things she wants to say, yet, this was the first to co out of her mouth.
"What's the big idea revealing yourself to Kidrith after all extra asurents we had just to hide you..!?" Joren snatched the gun and intimidatingly asked, "Are you lying to ?"
"They're communicating…" Kidrith dumbfoundedly watched this scene.
"If that's so, what are you doing right now?"
Joren tightly gripped the gun.
"I'm part of that insulting list?" Kidrith doesn't know what that is but just from the word itself, she doesn't like being a part of it.
"Wait, slow down, let look!"
Joren frowned and browsed through the system. Currently, there's the mission tab, stats tab, and a newly unlocked tab, the Bitchlist.
With hesiation, Joren went into this tab with a stupid na.
[Na: Kidrith
Race: Half-Fury
Title: Joren's Bitc-]
Joren imdiately closed the tab before Kidrith could read it.
"Tell … how did that happen?"
He solemnly asked the gun.
"I'm giving you a chance to reconsider. I will not disagree with anything you say. We can be friends or just acquaintances after this. But if you say you want to be my possession, that's equivalent to forfeiting your life to ."
Kidrith was stunned by Joren's words. She gave it a thought and pondered. After going through the situation and the second choice, Kidrith has co to a conclusion.
"All my life, I've been following orders. Although I'm self-sufficient, I'm already programd to rely on soone of a higher status. I have no free will of my own but that's never my concern. I just don't feel alive doing the sa thing every single day for the rest of my life."
She answered which doesn't answer anything. Kidrith then continued.
"Hades have never concerned himself with the servants. He must've been thinking that we're living the paradise from what we can see. Living in fear is better than living in repitition, I believe. And, at your offer or, even without it…" Kidrith looked at Joren with determination, "Can I be yours?"
"I feel like I'm going to regret this but not only am I grateful to you and respect you, but you're kind enough to give a chance. Furthermore," Kidrith then smiled, "I think following you will be exciting."
"Then, isn't following enough?" Joren raised the question.
"No, after so thinking, that wouldn't be enough. I don't have the initiative and easily give up on my own. In short, I'm a coward. If I have the choice to turn my back, I'm afraid I will. So, while this decision is frightening, I have to stand on my two feet on this one before I rely on you… do you understand?"
"Not at all." Joren shook his head to which Kidrith smiled as she leaned forward.
"Well, you're not a coward, after all. You don't understand but you're getting out of your way to warn beforehand, I think you'll be a good owner!"
"You're overpraising …"
"No, I'm not and…" Kidrith looked around and told, "Do you know that the River Styx is also a place where Gods swear as their most binding oath?"
"I thought you can swear anyti, anywhere?"
"Yes, but this one is a bit more formal and effective. I don't know the details myself but they say that they are not only swearing their nas on the line but also their soul as the River Styx connects Gaia and Hades."
"Is that so… well, if you've made your mind, make an oath so that there will no chance you can turn back."
Joren waited for Kidrith. She doesn't know the formalities but she just said what she feels.
"Wait, can I ask first? Is Joren Vierei your real na?"
"..." Joren paused for a while before answering, "Yes, it's my real na."
the gun looked at Joren with a deep gaze.
"Huu… okay. I, Kidrith, daughter of Nyx and a Half-Fury, swears upon the River of Styx to give my life and free will to the human, Joren Vierei…"
Kidrith opened her eyes when she saw the river water glow for a second and an invisible bind tied her and Joren together.
"I guess that's finished. Ehem," with a grin, Joren said his first orders, "From now on, Kidrith, you will never harm , your master, without my permission. You will also not betray in any shape or form. You are to never lie to and never plan anything against . All these will take effect even after your death."
"You're careful, huh…" Kidrith didn't have any problem with this since she didn't have the privilege to until Joren tested the weight of his words.
"Kidrith, co here."
Kidrith blinked a few tis before crawling up to Joren as he asked. The ferryboat didn't tilt even though there's a shift of weight.
"W-what?"
"I'm just so happy to have soone as beautiful as you to be in my total control. This is like a dream. Now, I can do anything with a beauty like you."
"I think I'm regretting my decisions now." Kidrith nervously laughed. She thought she had readied herself but she didn't think Joren would act on it the mont the oath is done.
"You don't have the right to regret it."
Joren then leaned forward and sealed her lips. With his invasive tongue, Kidrith couldn't help but drink so of his saliva.
"Haa~"
The two of them separated and Kidrith didn't know she would learn how to kiss this way.
"You can sit down now." Joren deeply breathed, "A sha, I really want to taste you right now but I still have a woman waiting for . I'd like to keep things consistent so I can only do a kiss right now, even though it's debatable if that's already over the line but, anyway, we're going to continue this after I settle my initial goal first."
"I don't know how to feel about that, master." Kidrith licked her lips before wiping it when she felt a little too hot, "But I guess I'm lucky that you're honest?"
