Chapter 2: My First Slave, and a Way Out

As I woke up, I started to devise my plan. But first, I must study my surroundings. If I try to rebel now, I’ll just end up dead. I looked around my cell, but all I could see was a lizard. It looked like a salamander.

Seeing as I’m bored, due to me being the only one here, I decided to communicate with it.

“Hello there. Could you come over here?”

I reach out my hand to pick it up, and suddenly, my hand starts to tingle. When I look at it, my hand starts to emit a strange black mist.

Startled, I pull back my hand. I smell something sweet.

(What's this sweet smell? It seems to be coming from the black mist.)

Curious, I look at the salamander. It seems to be interested in me. I reach out, and pet it. The black mist engulfs the salamander. It's eyes start to shine, and strange characters start to wrap around its body. Soon, the black smoke is absorbed by the salamander, and the strange characters disappear.

(What the fuck was that!?)

After a few seconds, the salamander opens its eyes.

(Greetings master.)

“What's this? A voice that inside my heart?”

(Yes, you see, I have become your servant.)

Ignoring the fact that this shouldn’t be possible, I try to learn what’s going on.

“Do you know what that black mist was?”

(No, but it seems to be some sort of magic.)

“Magic? There's magic?”

(Yes. All things in this world can use magic, but I have never seen a human who can use it. You must be an exception among exceptions.)

I see. So humans can’t use magic. What a bummer.

“What kind of magic can the beast-kin use?”

(Anything from summoning magic to fire magic. There are even those who use explosion magic. But it depends upon what race the beast-kin is.)

“There are other kinds of beast-kin?”

(Yes. There are the raccoon dog tribe, this race specializes in transformation magic. They have an intense love of alcohol, and tend to sponge off the other races. Then there is the fox tribe, they can use fire magic. There are a few who learn other kinds of magic, but they are far too few.)

“Then, what about the foxgirl who summoned me?”

If you encounter this tale on Amazon, note that it's taken without the author's consent. Report it.

(She is a rare talent. She has mastered summoning magic, as well as earth, fire, water, and void magic.)

“Void magic?”

(A form of magic that controls darkness and space.)

“Wow, that is overpowered.”

(Indeed, and to make matters worse it is possible to combine different types of magic if you can use more than one.)

“What?! So she can combine earth magic and space magic to summon a meteor from space?!”

(Yes. But I don't think you need to worry about such an apocalyptic scenario. The astrological knowledge of this world only amounts to the idea that there are bright shiny things in this world.

Now, continuing our discussion. The third race is the rabbit tribe. They are a race that specializes in charm magic. You know, the kind that makes others fall for you. Of course, it doesn’t work on members of the same sex. Also, they are quite dimwitted.)

“Charm magic? Is that similar to what I used on you?”

(No, if I had to guess, I’d say it’s enslavement magic.)

“And what was that smell coming from it?”

(Probably a pheromone. All animals should be attracted to it. Although, it should also affect beast-kin as well.)

Enslavement magic? Pheromone? When I heard that, I had an idea. If I can just get Hanbei-san close enough to touch her with the black mist, I can make her get me out of here.

Of course, I don’t like the idea of using this magic on a girl, but these are desperate times. Yes, it's totally justifiable. When she comes to feed me, I will reach through the bars, and grope her. I repeat, it's totally justifiable!

.

.

It's noon. Time to put my plan into action. It took a couple hours, but I finally mastered conjuring the smoke. When she smells it, she will come to me on her own. 'creak' The door opens with a little sound, and in comes Hanbei.

She is as cute as I remember, although it has only been half a day. I activate my enslavement magic.

“What is this sweet smell? I feel like it's drawing me in.”

It worked! As she slowly walks towards me, I reach out my hand.

When she's just a few inches from the cage, I seize my chance and grab her.

As I think I have caught my prey, her cloudy eyes clear up. “Wait! No! What are you doing?!”

It’s not working?! I guess since she's got higher intelligence, it takes longer. Not giving up, I grab onto whatever part of her I can.

“Ahn…stop! Don’t…haa…grab there!”

“I’m sorry, but I’m not about to become someone’s pet! Just submit and become mine!”

The black mist starts to engulf her body. The characters wrap themselves around her body, her twin peaks change shape. A white light shines throughout the hall.

“Ahhhhn~” Hanbei cries out erotically.

Is it really that good a feeling? The light disappears, and Hanbei is kneeling on the floor, clutching her body. She turns around, still clutching her body. Her face is cinnabar red. Is she angry at me?

Well, I did just molest her.

Just when I’m thinking this, she says in a confused voice, “Master?”

It seems to have worked. Cute older woman get!
