Even though my fire wall had completely burned away the zombies on the surface, we did not immediately leave the passageway, because the ground was still scorching hot from the flames. At the very least, we had to wait till the ground was suitable for walking before leaving.
In the meantime, I bought another Small SP Recovery Potion and gulped it down. I could feel my empty SP pool rapidly fill up again. Now, it was time to consider a very serious question: my harem…
Only because that’s how the system refers to it! This is a very important distinction, I am not calling it a harem for any other reason…
Honestly, this question wasn’t even a question for me at all. I simply opened up the Marketplace and purchased a name slot from it. Because this was my first time purchasing it, the name slot was only 100 points. Adding on the Small SP Recovery Potion, I was now down to a measly 7 points…
As I stared at my depleted account, my heart sank like that elevator descending into the shelter. For some reason, it felt like I had never once won ever since getting this system. Each time I spent my points, it felt more like a scam than anything else.
Regardless, I now had two name slots, one given and one bought. The next one would cost me 1000 points, or perhaps another mission, whenever that appeared… most likely never.
Since this crisis started, I had been observing Jiaojiao, and found that she was still immature. Her will wasn’t strong enough, so my decision was to exclude her for the time being. The best choice would be to give Lixiang and Bitong the name slots for the Book of Oaths… or rather the Magical Girl System.
Ahem, I mean the Mahou Shoujo System!
Since my fire wall had taken care of the zombies outside, there wasn’t much to worry about on that front. I turned around and began stabbing the corpses near us, lest they suddenly got up to jump us. As I did that, I began telling them about the Book of Oaths.
Naturally, that also included the harem system and what not… I definitely did not avert my eyes when I thought about that… it was all the system’s fault to begin with… I would never think about setting up such a shameless thing… not at all!
All that denying does make me seem suspicious though…
“Bitong, Lixiang, there’s something we need to discuss.”
“Hmm?”
“Your Highness?”
“Hmph… nothing for Jiaojiao then…”
“So… I need you guys to sign something…” I took out the Book of Oaths from my inventory, carefully blocking out the words harem on its cover.
Under their watchful eyes, a decidedly fantasy-esque leather scroll suddenly appeared in my hands.
“Book of Oaths?” Bitong read out the title, minus the word harem which I blocked out.
“Your Highness wishes to enter into a pact with this one?” Lixiang asked with sparkling eyes.
