Chapter 16 - The Fox duo

Uh, What the hell. That guy packs a punch doesn't he. June? Hey June wake up.

What!? I was trying to sleep.

You were awake the entire time and you didn't try to escape.

Why would I try to escape, I would have gotten caught.

You're finally awake.

(It's the guy who knocked me and June out).

Nice to meet you, uh.

Oh I'm Kenchi, and you are?

I'm June and this is my sister, Mira.

Nice to meet you June and Mi-

Cut the crap, why are we locked up in here?

(Wow, she has a pretty shitty attitude)

Calm down Mira, we won't have a chance to get out of here if we lash out. I'm sorry about her, we had mistaken you for a monster we're hunting.

Hmm, (that seems a little hard to believe). Why should I believe you?

If we pay you will you release us.

No, I'm not taking bribes I want answers.

I guess we have no another choice. We are Kitsunes from the hunter's guild in the Kingdom: Havenvale, the guild has issued a bounty on your head.

(Great! One more problem to deal with). If you guys are hunters, this is perfect for you.

What is it?

I'll pay you to protect this village.

How much?

How does ten plats sound?

Make it fifteen plats for my brother and I.

Eleven is my final offer. If you don't take my offer, you'll have to make this your new home.

Damn it, (Mira we can't stay here).

Ugh, we accept your offer.

Great.

A familiar light appeared in front Kenchi.

This light is the same as before. Just like the previous time, Kenchi reach out and a paper manifested.

what the hell is that? Wait, is that a piece of paper?

That's a magic contract.

Huh, so that's what it's called.

You summoned it but you don't know what it's called?

Of course I did.

Hmm?

June looked at Kenchi with a look of skepticism. Kenchi took the contract and dripped a drop of his blood on it. It glowed red and split into three pieces. One of the pieces was absorbed into Kenchi's wrist and the other two stuck to June and Mira's hands. The one on Mira's hand turned into a blue mark and June's own turned into a red mark.

Get this thing off me!

Mira it won't come off, because he made the contract.

What are you saying?

I'm saying, we serve him now.

So he's our lord now!?

(Not you too!)
