Chapter 86: Takeshiba Aika’s Decision

After leaving the box at the Fragrance Hall, Eric headed towards the warehouse where he was keeping Takeshiba Aika.

Entering there, he didn't go immediately towards the small office where Takeshiba Aika was staying but started running around the warehouse, and training.

He had missed one day of training together with the Exp and SP points that came with it. For that reason he had to train double today, to make up for the lost points.

With that thought in mind, for the next 3 hours, he just continued training under the monotone eyes of his guards.

After finishing his training he took his personal items and the clothes, he had to change into, as he headed towards the small office room, which had a small bathroom in the corner.

Inside the office room, Takeshiba Aika was staying seated on the chair behind the desk, dressed in her ripped clothes, clearly bored to the extreme.

She had never spent so much time inside a room, without anything to do, so she had a lot of time to think about her current position, and her future.

It wasn't like her future seemed boundless and full of opportunities at the moment, as her future was already somewhat set in stone.

She was Eric's slave and from now on she had to work hard for him. She could never have her own life from now on, she had to live for him.

Even if he ordered her to damage her family, or to hurt any of them, she couldn't reject his orders, she would have to do it.

All this time she had been trying to come to terms with these thoughts, but surprisingly she discovered that it was easier than she thought.

She realized that she didn't have much of a connection with her family, until now she had been brought up by the servants, and never seen her mother or her father much.

Her brothers looked at her as a profitable object to form some connection to another big family, while her sister had her own life and never cared much about her.

She knew that her mother was living miserable lives, as both her father and her sister's husband saw women as objects of pleasure and never cared about their feelings.

Which made them create another reality for themselves to escape the one they were living. Most probably she would have ended in the same situation as them.

But her life had changed the previous night, as fortunately or unfortunately she had become Eric's slave. And she would have to live her life like that.

Furthermore, taking into consideration even her newfound personality, and preference it wasn't a bad thing at the moment being Eric's slave.

Arriving at this conclusion she totally forgot about her pride and arrogance as a Young Miss of a prestigious family, and she decided to live her life as a new Takeshiba Aika.

A big hit to her arrogance was also the fact that Eric was able to do something like the slave seal, she was intelligent enough to understand that it was something extraordinary.

Normal people like her, but even the fighters, and powerful guards of her family weren't able to do something like this.

She didn't know why, but she had a feeling that if she followed Eric, and obeyed his orders truthfully, and stayed loyal to him, she would have a great life.

Her line of thought was interrupted by Eric's entrance into the small office room. He was almost naked and sweaty, which immediately assaulted her nostrils.

But she found out that she didn't hate his sweat odor, quite on the contrary she liked it, and was kind of stimulated by that smell.

On the other hand, Eric had been paying attention to his spirit sense to this place as soon as he arrived there, and he had felt her agitated heartbeats, that suddenly calmed down.

Thinking about this, he looked her in the eye as if trying to read her soul, as he said with a calm and carefree tone,

Eric:" So what have you decided!?"

Takeshiba Aika was startled hearing that question, but once again she was reminded and determined that Eric wasn't a normal person in the least.

She just looked right back at him, as she said with neither humble nor overbearing voice,

Takeshiba Aika:" I decided to follow my fate, but I won't give up on my life. I will do my best to earn my freedom and my place beside you!"

Eric could easily understand this from her soul print inside his sea of consciousness but hearing it from her own lips, and words made that even more special.

He didn't understand how could someone change their attitude so quickly, but she didn't seem to have gone crazy or lose her rationality.

All he could think right now was that sometimes people did get that sudden enlightenment of the legends. The important thing right now was the fact that Takeshiba Aika was completely his.

With this clarity Eric just felt even better after that tiring training session, and getting completely naked, he went towards the bathroom as he said,

Eric:" Follow me, it's time for you to get your reward!"

Takeshiba Aika didn't say anything more as she followed behind him, and entered the bath with excitement in her heart, she knew her reward would be plentiful.

For the next hour the only sounds that could be heard in there, were Takeshiba Aika's moans, the sound of water falling on their bodies, and the sound of two bodies clashing.

When they got out it was because Takeshiba Aika could not support the heat of the hot water, and had no more stamina to resist Eric's attacks.

When they got out she was in Eric's arms, as he was carrying her in a princess carry, towards the desk in the office room.

Before entering the bathroom to take a shower, he had already sent a mental message to Daisuke that he was expecting him here, and also to bring him some clothes on the way, for him and Takeshiba Aika.

Now that she had decided wholeheartedly to serve him, and be under his orders, he wouldn't treat her badly. Actually, he was also thinking of making her a sub-system user, but it was too early for that.

Firstly he had to make sure of her loyalty and obedience, and only after that would he seriously think of turning her into someone like that.

It wasn't that he couldn't increase her strength without the system at the moment. It would be more painful and tiring for her, but it was doable.

Placing her in the desk, he went towards the door with a towel around his waist, as he opened the door and took the bag from Daisuke's hands, and then closed the door.

He took out his own clothes, and handed Takeshiba Aika her own, as he opened the door only when she was fully dressed. He didn't like other men looking at his women.

As soon as Daisuke entered inside the room, Eric said in a carefree voice,

Eric:" Tell me what you have to report!"

While Daisuke was just a slave just like Takeshiba Aika, he still had its logic and intelligence, so he turned his head towards her as if asking Eric if it was safe to talk in front of her.

Noticing his concerns, Eric just continued with the same voice,

Eric:" It's okay you can talk in front of her, I trust her."

Well, actually he trusted more to the slave seal he had performed on her, than her as a person, but that didn't make a bit of a change to him at the moment.

Daisuke didn't dare to delay the matters anymore as he started,

Daisuke:" Just like you predicted Master, Master Miura went to look for Takeshiba Yuto and strike a deal with him, while instigating him that you were a thorn on his side.

He also promised him the 'Fragrance Hall' in its entirety, as he said that he was doing this only to revenge the humiliation of his son.

But Takeshiba Yuto wasn't the only one he mixed into this, as he convinced even Ito Mura into action with him, but most probably he will use him as cannon fodder."

Hearing all this Eric remained calm and collected the whole time, he had been expecting something like this, and it seemed that his plan was going to work out perfectly.

What he was thinking right now was the idea of having some back-up plan when something went wrong or didn't go according to his plans.

While Eric wasn't saying anything, Takeshiba Aika seemed a bit puzzled as she said,

Takeshiba Aika:" Why would my brother think that you are a nuisance, and even go as far as killing you?"

Hearing that Eric had a flash of hatred and killing intent on his face, that made her shiver but then he answered,

Eric:" Well I have met your brother earlier when I was on a date with Yoshida Gina, and he gave me quite the introduction, as he tried to beat me up right there and then.

While all that was probably set up by Yoshida Gina, for her own personal reasons, I still hate your idiot brother for that arrogant and tyrannical attitude of his.

I have to tell you that he has made my blacklist and that he will suffer a lot."

Takeshiba Aika could somewhat understand what he meant, after all, a day ago she had been the same, and if it wasn't for her playing in Eric's palm, she would probably make that blacklist too.

Combined with her brother's attitude, and line of action, she knew that there was no way for her to save him. Not to mention that right now he was trying to act against Eric.

As for the matter between Eric and Yoshida Gina, it was their own matter, she had no right to intercept in that, as she was just a slave at the moment.

Additionally, her father was also a rich and powerful man, and he also had a lot of women in his life, Eric seemed to be even more extraordinary than him, so he would surely have more than one.

Takeshiba Aika saw this situation as a test, and possibility for her as she said…
