Omrick Pov
Despite knowing of my failures, everything didn't seem too bad
Despite the obvious downsides of being behind a slave contract the thought of someone being in a shitty situation such as myself was…
Comforting to say the least, but as I looked around the room I noticed something strange
The room had no doors, windows and seemed to be no sort of ventilation. The air felt strangely still as well
"This space, is it a pocket dimension?" (Omrick)
"Oh you could realized? Yeah this entire place were in is a ring. It's how I've been hiding mostly"
The girl showed off her ring and I saw a very familiar carving on it
The markings of a hero
"Alileen.... What's your last name?" (Omrick)
"Caibern, Why?" (Alileen)
Rage had been sparked within me, If I were just stronger everything. No it was too late for that.
The offspring of one of my greatest enemies had made me their slaves
Tora Caibern lives on in her. Despite the situation I didn't feel too angry at her, she was unrelated to my past
"Say do you know of the hero named Tora" (Omrick)
"I think he's my great great.. uhm a lot more greats grandpa he was quite famous back in the day as the hero king" (Alileen)
Sweat started to drip down my scales when hearing this
"wait what's the calendar year!?" (Omrick)
"Should be 1896" (Alileen)
"Hahahahaha" (Omrick)
I couldn't contain my laughter after hearing that. I couldn't tell if it was out of desperation or sadness
My sudden fit had stopped as I looked at her as once again she had looked at me if I were crazy
"Let me tell you a story girl" (Omrick)
I told her about my once great kingdom
The heroes I met whom I traveled with
The fight with the demon king
And especially the betrayal
How I had been reincarnated in this form
"Wow my ancestors a complete dickbag" (Alileen)

I was surprised by her belief and understanding of the situation
"Wait a second you shouldn't be using those words young girl" (Omrick)
"thats what your worried about?" (Alileen)
"Yes it's important to have a a dignified vocabulary at such a young age!" (Omrick)
"What are you my dad?" (Alileen)
"We'll work on that later, How about you? Whats your story former princess" (Omrick)
"Honestly theres not much too it so I'll give you the rundown" (Alileen)
"The whatdown?" (Omrick)
"Oh yeah old lingo, Uhm basically a quick summary" (Alileen)
"Well it all started when I was a kid, I wasn't all too important to my family because I was the 4th child and the daughter no less.
It didn't help much that my mom the empress at the time had cheated on her spouse with my dad so I was more or less ignored, but when I think about it, Maybe it was for the better
I was quite free from the eyes of politics and I had time to learn things like this" (Alileen)
She placed her hand on the floor making a half decent magic circle if I had to say so myself
She slowly raised her arms making a lance out of ice. Her attention to detail was intense as the grooves upon said lance was intricate and smooth. Her mana control was I suppose better than average for people her age, of course nowhere near me.
"but when I turned 15 everything changed. The king and my 3 brothers had been assassinated, The Empress had gone insane. My dad was immediately found even though he had nothing to do with them and was executed" (Alileen)
Her eyes seemed melancholic, It appears that her dad was the only one she cared for out of the bunch
"My uncle, Duke Lorken, is the man who ignited this I believe wants to take out the bloodline so only he alone can take over this kingdom
Funny part is I don't even wanna take over as empress, but he wouldn't ever believe that" (Alileen)
She had paused for a moment thinking about what she was gonna say next
"Thats why I need your help Omrick, that incompetent asshole couldn't ever handle the kingdom" (Alileen)
She had looked deep into my eyes. They showed desperation and courage.
She had reminded me of how I was as a youngling
"Alright where do we start... Also language" (Omrick)
"Well first we start with some rest and come up with strategies tomorrow" (Alileen)
The serious attitude was lifted and all that was left was a mischievous grin left upon her face
"As my first royal decree I demand you Omrick king of all 1 dragon to become my royal hug pillow" (Alileen)
"WHAT!?!" (Omrick)
That snarky attitude had went to my ears like nails on a chalkboard
Her first demand was to use my regal body for such a childish act
I had urged my body to try and runaway in hopes to escape her grasps, But I couldn't avoid her grasp as she yanked me from the floor and pulled me onto the bed
"Let go of me this instant you insufferable baf- (Omrick)
"Hush its bed time" (Alileen)
My mouth had been instantly sealed to her command and I was left being used as in improv teddy bear without the ability to escape of leave
"zzzzz" (Alileen)
After a while she had finally fallen asleep, but even after I still couldn't escape
The contract seems to have a hold of me even when she was unconscious
I was left to my own devices and began thinking about what had transpired when I woke up again.
'maybe this life wouldn't be so bad'
I had remembered the strange screens that appeared before and the "Rookie lootbox"

to the side there was another screen

'Yes'
The box had somehow become animated within the screen as it had transformed

'@$?&!!!!!!' (Omrick)
This world wasn't fair and I had only just now realized that
