Chapter 7 - Blood is the key

As everyone stared, Kenchi reached out and grabbed the paper. Upon grabbing it the light faded.

(Appraise).

(A paper with magical properties, it binds one living thing to the other).

It requires blood?

He cuts his hand and dripped a bit of blood on the paper, a little tab opens.

[Master registered]

The paper shines blue and splits in two. One of the pieces wraps around Kenchi's wrist and the other piece warps around Vellion's neck like a collar.

Damn it get this thing off me!

Vellion pulls at the collar but has no luck breaking it off.

What did you do? Undo this right now.

Sorry, I don't know how to do that.

Huh, well I guess I'll have to kill you to break this thing.

He broke open the cage and ran at Kenchi, but his body suddenly stiffened and he blacked out.

What just happened, did he faint because he tried to attack me?

A tab opens.

[Friendly fire mode: Off]

(So it really is like a game, he couldn't hurt me because we're technically allies).

My lord what should we do with him?

Put him on a bed in one of the finished houses.

Yes my lord.

Also could you stop calling me lord, you can call me Kenchi.

As you wish.. Lord Kenchi.

Kenchi starts to groan.

I'm so hungry..

If the lord is hungry, we'll prepare something at once. Please follow us.

Okay.

He follows the villager to the middle of the village. As they arrive a sweet smell filled the air. There was a big pot in the middle of a fire, the sauce within it came to a boil and one of the villagers filled a bowl up and gave it to him.

Before he ate Kenchi bowed his head.

thank you for this treat.

As he took the first bite the others followed.

this chapter is later because I was rewriting some of the future plot points, but I hope you all enjoy.
