While the Princess recovered, I went ahead and brought back Salicia and Carmine. “Remove Curse! Slaver Taker! Resurrection!”
I decided to start with remove curse since the original death mark was a type of curse. Just as the princess had predicted, Slave Taker worked. There was a glowing light. Although I cast the spells twice, both girls began to open their eyes at the same time. I cast a few healing spells on the pair of them as well as refresh for good measure.
“Deek…” Carmine’s eyes widened.
“You…” Salicia then turned and saw an unconscious princess on the table next to her. “Have we been added to your collection?”
“Yup!” Lydia nodded.
“No!” I grabbed Lydia and pulled her back. “I mean to say, you’ve been brought back to life using a powerful resurrection charm. The end result is that you are both my slaves.”
“Whatever… is the princess a slave too?”
“No.”
“Hehe… in that case…” She reached out and grabbed Eliana’s chest.
“Wh-what are you doing?” I cried out.
“Well, obviously, I’m robbing her. Women always hide things in their tits. Shit, nothing there, she didn’t hide it down there, did she? Only one way to find out.”
“Sister, stop, or I’ll kill you!”
“Ah… I didn’t mean anything by it! You’re still the only woman in my life!” Salicia cried.
“You disgust me.”
“Sister, when you say those words to me with that cruel look, you make me go wild.”
“I made a mistake. I should have left them dead. I see that now.”
“H-hey! Don’t be killing me so quickly!” Salicia cried.
“You know you guys were killed with a supposedly irreversible death curse. It’s also been almost six weeks. You really should have been dead for good!” I declared.
“Yeah, yeah…” Salicia seemed unimpressed. “Didn’t you bring us back so you could do this and that with our bodies?”
Carmine gasped. “Ah… I understand. My body or my life. Deek was far crueler than I originally thought.”
“You two…” I growled. “Actually, I don’t even want the pair of you as my slaves. Rather, since I’m stuck with you, I’m going to set the pair of you up as my guards.”
“Guards? Really? Us?” Salicia was disbelieving.
“Your both powerful, so yes.”
“Very well, I will protect you with my life.” Carmine bowed.
“Ah… actually, I’m not taking you along with me at all. My girls can protect me. I actually just want some guards for my house.”
“So… you want a third rank Paladin and a Bandit King to work as house security?” Salicia asked.
“Yes.”
“What’s the alternative?”
“Jail… and probably an execution for you. Disbarment, and a lifetime of rejection for Carmine.”
“Then, I’ll take your offer!” Salicia responded.
Carmine nodded as well in acceptance. Well, it wasn’t like they had a choice. I could only let out a long sigh.
“Alright, let’s head to this new mansion. Since it was provided by the prince, it’ll probably be nice.”
