Elysia felt listless as she was carried out of the forest on Lord Sorias's back. The deal had been made and the contract had been signed already.
'I cannot back out of it now,' Elysia could only moan about her lack of foresight as she exited the magical protection of the forest.
"Lord Dirac, you are bac..."
Head Butler Hector's voice stopped as soon as he caught sight of the huge beast following his lord. Elysia was sure that the situation would have been funnier had she been able to see the Head Butler's face.
For some reason, Lord Sorias had decided to spend his first day in his beast form rather than his human one.
"M-My lord, have you finally decided to take a familiar? You should have told me about this earlier and I would have helped you…"
"Hector, you talk too much. Just shut up for a second." the Head Butler clipped his mouth shut before Lord Dirac continued, "Prepare the room adjacent to Elysia for occupancy. Lord Sorias is her familiar and will stay near her."
