The Author's POV
Chapter 322
"So you're saying that you defeated her and in doing so convinced her to sign a mana contract with you?"
Douglas's clear voice echoed throughout the room.
"That's correct."
I replied with a nod.
Since the cat was out of the bag, I came clean about Angelica.
I told Douglas and Waylan everything that had happened between Angelica and me, from how I defeated her to how I made her sign a mana contract with me and how we came to the current working relationship.
I, of course, altered a few of the details about the story. After all, I couldn't just tell him that I defeated her through the use of the red book.
All I told him was that Angelica was heavily injured before fighting me, and that was how I was able to defeat her.
"…I see."
Stroking his beard, Douglas looked at Waylan, who looked back at him.
"Do you have a copy of the mana contract with you?"
Waylan asked from the side.
"I do."
"Can you let us see it?"
Turning to face Angelica and seeing her nod her head, I nodded back.
"No problem."
Tapping on my bracelet, an old-looking scroll materialized in my hand.
Unraveling the scroll, I took a brief look at it.
「Mana contract」
[Term 1]
Party A and Party B are prohibited from harming each other, regardless of means. If either party has any intention of harming the other party, the contract breached will suffer the consequences.
[Term 2]
If Party A is in danger, and Party B has the power to help, he/she must provide support to other party.
[Term 3]
The contract between the two parties will dissolve in five years. After five years, the two parties will no longer be bound by the terms of the contract.
[Term 4]
Parties are prohibited from harming each other's self-interest.
[Term 5]

"Here you go."
After taking a good look at it, I proceeded to hand it to them.
"Thank you."
Taking the contract, Waylan and Douglas unscrolled it and took a good look at it.
The silence that ensued after that felt almost suffocating.
But I remained calm.
I had gone through too much shit to get fazed from something like this. At the end of the day, given Douglas's personality, there shouldn't be any worries.
...I hope.
"How long do you have left in the contract?"
Douglas suddenly asked.
"How long?"
Frowning, I mused.
'If we're talking about time, counting the eight months I spent at the Monolith, the four months I used to get here to Henolur, and the additional four months that I spent with her before the Monolith incident, it should be about...'
