By the time the ability test ended, I already knew who I would be picking .
“I’ll be in your care from now on, Lord-san . ” [Ryouma]
“I will serve you with all of my heart . And, Master, please call me Ox . ” [Ox Lord]
The person I chose was none other than Mr . Ox Lord .
None of the candidates could compare to his combat abilities .
He’s a little stubborn, but he’s diligent and offers a sense of security .
Reinhart-san and the others advised me too, and every one of them picked Mr . Ox Lord .
He’s a debt slave, so the only things he had with him were his two swords and some clothing .
By the time we got back from the post-match healing (magic healing), all of his luggage had already been loaded .
Apparently, I could take him back with me immediately if I paid, so I settled the bill with something akin to a check .
To be honest, there wasn’t really any need to hurry . I’m staying at the duke’s manor, after all, so I was originally planning on staying a few more days, then take him with me when it was time to leave for Gimuru, but…
“He’s a servant, so he should stay at the manor . But enough of that, let’s hurry up and go home . ” [Reinhart]
Reinhart-san said that, so it was decided that we would be taking Mr . Ox Lord back with us .
When we got back to the parking area meant for carriages, everyone aside from me hurriedly got on our carriage .
Today, Fei-san and Ox-san would be riding inside too .
“Leaving so soon? And here I was thinking of taking our time drinking tea . ” [Orest]
“You can just drink by yourself . ” [Pioro]
“How cruel . It can’t be helped… Takebayashi-sama, should you need another slave, please feel free to drop by our Moulton Slave Company again . I’ll welcome you even if it’s just for a chat . ” [Orest]
“Ha ha ha… If the opportunity presents itself, then by all means, Moulton-san . ” [Ryouma]
“Oh, right! I almost forgot . Please just call me Orest . In exchange I’ll call you by your name, Ryoumsama . Don’t you think we’ll feel a lot closer if we change the way we call each other?” [Orest]
This guy… He’s been really pushy ever since he stopped hiding his true nature . Well, whatever .
“I understand, Orest-san . If I feel like it, I’ll drop by again . ” [Ryouma]
“Yes . At that time, I’ll be sure to treat you well . I’d love to explain more, but the people behind you are really scary, so please take this instead . ” [Orest]
As he said that, he handed me something akin to a pamphlet .
