We were taken by Liza and went to the usual reception,
"I'll check it out and drink some tea and wait."
That's why I had to wait indoors.
Liza himself goes out of the room and talks.
"Why did this happen ..."
"That's right."
Sophia released her hug and was drinking tea with her face red next to me.
The release was successful with my order, "Leave me away."
The moment the word came out, the black chains that had bound her loosened.
From that fact she realized that she was really being manipulated by my orders.
… I don't have that magical knowledge, but what is the cause?
I was thinking while drinking tea.
A few minutes to do so.
Dante with a pale face came in, replacing Liza's door.
"I'm sorry this time!"
Suddenly, he was prostrate.
"Um ... what are you doing?"
"This time, the enslavement of Chrono and Sofia-the dominant contract was originally a mistake or a system error, so apologize ..."
"What about enslavement due to system errors?"
I don't understand the meaning. There were many things that didn't make sense since I came to this castle, so I decided to ask for explanation as usual.
"Please explain from the beginning, so that I and Sofia can understand it."
"Please!"
I and Sofia looked straight ahead at Professor Dante. He slowly began to speak.
"Do you know Mothercore? That is the invention of the first Demon King, who has the function of depositing some of your soul and power and converting it into a dungeon."
"Well, is that so?"
I knew only that it was a tool to test dungeon strength, but did it work with such a mechanism?
"The important thing here is that you keep your soul. Chrono. Before you touched Mothercore, Sofia touched. Do you remember that?"
"Yes, well, I remember making a ten-level dungeon."
"In other words, at that point Sophia's soul was in the Mothercore. And soon after, you ruled the entire Mothercore. Sophia's soul Got it. "
Oh, the clouds are getting a bit suspicious.
"Domination of the soul is the same as the domination contract performed by enslavement magic, because it also binds a part of the soul with the power of the Lord. The result-now is your relationship That's it. "
"I mean ... this slavery wasn't something that had just started, but it had been fixed since the dungeon was made. That's what Professor Dante says."
Dante nodded quietly at my question.
"It started with a problem with this system. Although it was unheard of to have one mother core dominated, I'm really sorry ... I apologize to the two people ..."
Dante rubs his head against the desk and drops his head.
… I do n’t mean that the cause was related to me…!
It was more than expected. Or rather, I had no expectation.
"Oh ... Sophia. Somehow, Suman."
I felt like I had to apologize, so I decided to bow down with Professor Dante.
"Well, it's good. Please look up! It was like an accident. Mr. Chrono and Professor Dante are not bad at all!"
"That's right, Chrono-kun, you don't have to apologize! Your power is great and nothing is wrong. Everything is due to this system error."
I decided to raise my head because the two will follow.
To be honest, I have a strong feeling of what to do.
... Let's see the reality for now. Translucent chains are still attached to Sofia's body.
See the future rather than look back at the past.
If this control contract is mistaken, I want to release it quickly,
"Let's release the dominant contract.-If you say, will this chain disappear?"
But after waiting for tens of seconds, the chains remained.
"It looks like you can't do it ..."
"I agree……"
When I and Sofia looked away, Professor Dante pointed at the door that led to the next room, chilling and sweating.
"There, the Demon King is examining his mother core, so please wait a little longer .... I should be able to come back soon, so please relax with tea and sweets ..... Please ..."
I and Sophia nodded quietly to the begging professor's voice.
