Now, with plates fallen on the floor they opted to eat tavern part of inn, Zyca food is free yet he still paying for hers though but he seemed fine with it.

Zyca getting down first and looked for a table and seen only the one in the middle is vacant. He sighed knowing this will be hot topic for tomorrow onward. He kind of guest the topic of ‘knight gallantly saved damsel in distress from Bloodborne’ or ‘lecherous adventurer bringing back woman in tattered clothing to his room, then proceed to have diner in the middle of the night ’…the latter hold more truth from how it sounded but nonetheless only later the public can judge him along with the witness from surrounding eyes and ears

Slowly from the upper floor, the beautiful lady descends gracing these poor eyes of inn’s customers and Zyca too for some reason only seen angel coming.

This seemed to be effect of ‘amicability of men’ that make anyone who seen the owner to develop sense to protect, reverie and of friendliness, even if they are female and beast if it have some intellect even though less effective with them.

Zyca is not up to par to face his own enchantment as he seemed to be mesmerized by its effect so my time again. ‘Partial Takeover’

“Please suit yourself, Ronea. The food will arrive soon” I stand and receive her toward her chair. It seemed like the surroundings went aghast for some reason but it isn’t anything I need to think about.

“Thank you, sir Zyca” ahhh…she seemed to still stick with that sir again

“Please, Ronea. Just call me Zyca it is fine” I don’t see why she would say it again

“Toward my benefactor, it seemed more appropriate to add a title even if only honorary in his name” she explained but that only works if…

“But…that only for someone of high class standing to add title toward me…wait tell me now, is the name Deihamic are of nobles circle or alike?” that is the only conclusion I come up with

“It is…for house Deihamic are of first circle of nobles. We, brother and sister are eccentric but for him to have meet such unfortunate end is too pitiful even if he only wanted to see from how peoples perceive simple things” that sudden shock is even a bit much to me, how come I didn’t see any of his upbringing from when I drink his blood just then…

“Is this brother of yours are also part of Deihamic nobles?” I just tried to poke a bit even if she didn’t answer it is fine

“No…he is not a noble line but a knight line that is sworn to my family but he is the closest person to me like a brother, even that if we are not tied by blood we can proudly say that we are siblings…” she then seemed to reminiscing her good time and begin to tear up.

I though it is up to me not to let this young lady to cry especially in the middle of public space and just before diner time, I bet Zyca hungry too. So I did what I thought is good, I put my hands atop of hers and said “You will be fine, after all now you got me (my blessings) with you” and sadly that come out really wrong to the masses and even I hear some people spurting their drinks and cups or mugs falling to the floor, I even heard someone laughing like a maniac in the back.

“…” and she just looking dumbfounded straight to my eyes with her face getting redder and redder especially the cheek and her ears. Why I …. Feel insurmountable urge to seek her… is Zyca’s will still going strong or something before I even checked about it…in that moment of silence

“I, Ronea Deihamic, Second Scion of Deihamic Family, as of now declare my loyalty and my whole being toward Zycaglorius De Athemasus. I as of now part of your legacy and every command you give is my raison d’être, my liege.”

Somehow that just happened and that was the oath of immemorial, an oath where your whole existence will be under someone. Unstoppable, unchangeable and stays for eternity even after your death as your soul also counts as your existence in this oath.

As I, the great me had finally registered the whole thing, I feel three people fainted, four people is in coughing fit, one is flipping table and the rest too are slack jawed to the point if it were not surprising if their jaws falls to the floor. Even after I already laid back in control, Zyca’s will is dimmed to the point of non-relevant, I can only sigh in my mind alas nothing will come out even if I reject her oath, no other thing but to…

“I as your liege affirmed your oath and accepted you as part of my legacy. And with the Vow spoken Ronea Deihamic, Another of me for you…”

As I had state that I had called forth an accessory to give to her as part of the custom of Legacy bestowal. I give an emblem decorated with my insignia of a void of eye with skeletal fingers surrounding it, giving it a look of some unknown flowers.

And with that she received my Regalia of Piety for her unwaveringness in putting her everything in me, someone whom she just met less than a night. The absurdity is really beyond what I can comprehend at this moment…ah right…

After a bit more minute passed, Doug, the inn keeper boss and owner himself served our diner “Casey is in back room, we will talk later” after he said that I & Zyca truly feel the pressure emitted from former platinum class Adventurer, it really is sharp and precise.

Now that I had been told like that, after finishing our food, I rent another room for a night so she doesn’t have to walk home at the dead of the night. Some sharp gazes lost its intensity and the Inn keep, himself brought me toward the back room after I told Ronea to rest in her room. Let’s see how Zyca handle this.

“Don’t lynch me now, if you are civilized at least hear me out” Zyca hold out both his hand “I didn’t pressure her, hell if there is anything I told her to go back home and continue her dream. I don’t expect that she would suddenly give her oath of immemorial to me” but alas I know what just really happened

“…oh dang, I messed up real bad…” it seemed like Zyca understood “did I look too cool when I speak to her?” or not “well…it might be… from the effect of the enchantment I gave to her clothes” he get it at last

“What kind of messed up enchantment to make someone do irreversible oath like that without checking up your background?” Somebody yelled the heart of the problem

“Unsurmountable willpower one?” Zyca can only raise his hand to exclaim his remembering and told them her story as he remember it

With ‘unsurmountable willpower’ attached in her garment, it made her have its aforementioned effect and capable of making any decision without sort of unwanted repercussion or penalty be resolute in her mind as of the effect even if there is other kind of choices.

With her it will be like “as she believe that I am strong and kindred of same pain…she trusted me with all her being and her future…ain’t that sound real bad and problematic” and he only now realized why the guys brought him here “oh well…just need to take care of her”

“How?” the innkeeper gazed upon Zyca with unprecedented amount of willpower comparable as the Red Basilisk

“Another…blessed up stuff to start and might be some other stuff before she go back home…somehow I just made another appointment for the week…” Zyca said Zyca do

With that as the finale, the whole tavern-inn accepted as the deal sealed and taken although with Zyca having being watch by the some people. Before he went to his room, I took over again “just to make sure” and calculating area of magic. Choosing base spell: Sleep. Choosing auxiliary: Amplify. Choosing auxiliary: Hush. Choosing auxiliary: Rejuvenate. Choosing auxiliary: Prosperity… it seems enough already “sleep well, Ronea” that was Zyca speaking.
