"What did you just say? I couldn't hear you!"
There was no way that Eric wasn't able to hear her words in that deadly silent place, which made Ren Jia angry at his attitude.
It wasn't easy for soone like her, to say thank you to so guy that she had known only for a short while.
Outside she played the big-sister type role in front of other n, and strangers, but that was just an act, this was the true her.
She had truly thanked him from the bottom of her heart at that mont but hearing his response made her extrely angry.
On the other hand, Eric even approached his ear in order to pretend like he was approaching her to hear what she said better.
His act made Ren Jia thinking of biting his ear or causing him pain, but at that mont he was truly her benefactor and had saved her life.
She couldn't confront cotton with steel, so she tried her best to control her anger, and her emotions as she repeated in a clearer voice,
"Thank you for saving my life!"
"You are welco!"
Hearing his response Ren Jia thought that this guy wasn't that bad. Even though he had a bit of weird and strong temperant, he was a good person. Not everyone would save a dying person.
But the next mont she understood that perhaps she was treating this situation too highly, as she heard him say,
"In fact, you should address as Master, and tell 'Thank you Master' but since this is still new to you, I will let you off the hook."
Ren Jia was about to explode as she was once again remainder of the fact that Eric had actually placed a slave seal on her.
Her face imdiately turned dark and icy when she thought about it, but before she could say anything, Eric had started walking deeper into the tunnel.
Afraid that she might face the sa thing once again, she didn't dare to stay back there, so she imdiately followed behind Eric, and decided to shut her mouth for the mont.
Eric was walking in front with his spirit sense concentrated only in a 5 ters radius sphere, as he didn't dare to act rashly in this place.
Still, no matter how carefully he inspected the area in front of him, he wasn't able to discover anything.
It was the sa as if he was trying to use his 3 years old knowledge to understand the human world and everything inside it.
He could 'see' but he didn't understand a thing, as everything could be a potential danger for him. As he was thinking like that, Ren Jia who was behind him suddenly pressed a tile she shouldn't have.
Imdiately after, a small portion of the ceiling above them opened, as more than 10 arrows were fired towards that tile.
Since Eric had decided to keep this woman and use her, he couldn't let her die right then and there, so he quickly pulled her towards him, while the arrows were stuck at the place where Ren Jia stood a mont ago.
Once again, her life had been saved by Eric, and it wasn't even 5 steps after the first ti. She couldn't help but feel extrely lucky and unlucky at the sa ti.
Certainly, having her life saved was a great outco, as she didn't want to die, but the situation she was after being saved was quite anger-inducing to her.
Eric had pulled her towards himself, and her body was being squished against his, especially her large and juicy lons.
And as if that wasn't enough, the hadn't that Eric had pulled her towards himself, was positioned not on her waist, but on her rear mountains, and she could even feel a pinch when she was being pulled.
It was clear that Eric was taking great advantage of her, but since he had saved her life, she couldn't express her anger at him.
Despite being extrely angry, she could only chew on her anger, and say with the sa voice of earlier,
"Thank you!"
"Aia~! Still not calling as you should! You are truly ungrateful, perhaps it's better to let you die and rot in here."
Even Buddha wouldn't have trouble controlling himself after hearing those words, as Ren Jia exploded,
"What do you an!?"
"Whether you accept it or not, I have already placed that slave seal on you, and it's impossible for you to escape my grasp.
Even the best Seal Masters aren't able to break my seal and release you from my control! So, if you don't start calling Master, as you should, your value in my eyes will most certainly fall.
Be aware that I don't want to use the influence of the Seal to make you obey , but that will be up to so point.
If you seriously don't consider serving honestly then don't bla for being rciless with you!"
Eric's words weren't completely true, but they weren't a lie either. The fact stood that she had turned onto his slave the previous night.
Furthermore, since she was a woman, he felt much better if she obeyed him by her free will, but he wouldn't hesitate to use the seal for that as well.
As for the fact whether the Slave Seal was breakable or not, he thought that since this thing ca out of his Legacy System, then it was impossible for that to happen on Earth.
So, even though his words weren't 100% true, at least 90% of them were. Not to ntion that it was impossible for Ren Jia to catch him lying.
Hearing all that Ren Jia couldn't help but pause and think for a few monts, but the fact remained that she was still angry at him, for the way he treated her, and what he said.
So, she imdiately turned to her senses, arrogance, and anger, as she said,
"Don't go too far, and don't dream! I would prefer to die rather than willingly beco you slave!"
Her words made even Eric a bit angry, but he didn't show anything on his face, as he just let her go, while saying without much emotion,
"Ah, so!?"
As soon as he said that he released her from his embrace, and his 'dirty' hand, turned around, and started walking deeper in the tunnel.
Ren Jia was a bit surprised at his actions, and attitude, but she still wouldn't give up that easily. After all, she wasn't so kind of cheap woman to fall that easily.
But by the ti she regained her senses she found out that Eric had disappeared from her sight, and she had been left alone there in the dark.
She couldn't see anything in there, and her eyes had yet to adapt to the darkness around her. Until now Eric had been her guide, but now she wasn't able to feel him close to her.
Eric had disappeared in the darkness of the tunnel, while she was left there alone stranded, without knowing what to do.
Should she walk forward, or should she return back? No matter what she decided would be faced with hardships, as she had no idea what kind of place this was.
As if that wasn't enough in a mont, she understood that she wasn't able to tell her directions anymore, like she had been stranded in a directionless area.
She was slowly even forgetting which was forward and wish side was back. Without Eric by her side, she was like a leaf in the middle of the ocean.
At that mont, she felt a deep emptiness inside her, that was rapidly and steadily filled with fear. The worst fear for a human isn't what he sees, but what he doesn't.
All this ti with Eric by her side she had felt extrely comfortable, even though her life had been twice in danger she had saved her life easily.
It was precisely due to that easiness, and simplicity that he saved her life that she had taken everything for granted.
Truly people learn the value of sothing only when they lose it. She didn't know whether it was the Seal in her conscience sea or her true feeling but she had started to beco dependent on him.
Earlier she was only angry at the way that he treated her, as she felt that he was lowering her, and her value as a woman.
But now that she was all alone in that darkness, she understood that without Eric she was completely lost, and powerless. What value did she have at that mont?
Furthermore, should they had been in reverse roles, then what would she do in this situation?
Even though she didn't want to accept it at first, should have Eric failed to put the slave seal on her, she most probably would have stolen everything from him, and then left to warn her organization.
She didn't really know what this place was, but certainly, it wasn't sothing normal, as Eric had been searching for this place for a long ti.
The rumors of her being treasures and valuable objects might have been a big lie at first, but now she didn't feel like it was the case anymore.
A place that no one knew existed, and with such high security being empty was impossible, even an idiot would understand that.
Still, the worst thing she could do at that mont was staying stagnant in her place, as she moved a hand forward to probe the path in front of her, as she said in a fairly normal voice,
"Are you there!?"
The mont, her hand moved forward though she felt like she had plucked so kind of string, as a chanism was activated, and she only heard 10 whooshing sounds…
