*************************************
'The test of chivalry, unexpectedly, took away my chivalry.'
'I don't know at what point exactly. I can only say that I would never have hit someone who is on the ground, let alone on a daily basis.'
'But that's only part of it, well…'
'Let's see the good side of it. Thanks to this experience I discovered my two desires: Strength and women.'
'With 99 points by force I will fulfill my first wish, and not only that but, by using it, I will be able to obtain money and, with it, women.'
'"Is she already here? Well, let her in" With Leo's order, the maid opened the door, and then, a woman entered.'
'With blue eyes and a beautiful face, long blonde hair with curlers at its ends. She is of a slim build but has large breasts and a protruding butt. At 1.75m tall, her long legs make her look like a very elegant woman.'
'[Alessia Addari] [Adventurer Lvl11]'
'[(Slave) (Masochist Lvl1)]'
'But the most important thing is his [Masochist Lvl1]. Very important, it should not be forgotten.'
'For my part, I currently wear middle-class clothes, very close to upper class. After thinking about it a lot, I decided that this is my style. Upper-class clothes may lead me to another misunderstanding as it happened with Yair, so, upper-middle-class clothes will be fine.'
'"Alessia is 18 years old, from an early age she entered the labyrinth, obtaining a lot of experience from it. Her main weapon is the sword, and she is very skilled with it. She is a pure woman, and her class is Adventurer with level 11"'
'Leo gave me a report of only two pages, in which he recounts her life history. After reading it, I discovered a very important thing.'
'[illegitimate daughter of a nobleman]'
'"Its value is 120 gold coins. The report explains the reason for this sum."'
'120 gold coins… Because she is the illegitimate daughter of a noble, her price increased considerably. This is beyond my calculations. I never thought that her beauty came from her partially noble blood.'
'If its original price was 65-70 gold coins, its price practically doubled. Her price may drop again in a few weeks, but no one can tell me she'll be here by then.'

'her price is a long way from my current savings. I'm afraid that, even if I have the gift of speech, I won't convince Leo to keep it to me.'
'Haa… This will be a very impromptu course of action. It will just be based on assumptions, but I feel like they have a lot of logic behind them.'
'[Reset Status Points]'
'Mentally pressing the reset button, changed all my status points to just one attribute…'
'[Emir] [Adventurer Lvl1] [Survivor Lvl2]'
'HP=1 || MP=1'
'Agility=1 || Force=1'
'Intelligence=49 || Luck=1'
'[Resistances]'
'Physical=1 || Magic=0'
'Poison=0 || Curse=0'
'[Do you want to save the profile of this state?]'
'Intelligence!'
'When I opened my eyes again, I felt like a completely different person. I don't have a mirror in front of me, but I'm sure, at this point, my eyes became sharp.'
'There is a reaction in Leo's eyes. Has he noticed? His eyes are to be feared. I know he doesn't have an eye skill, but maybe… does he actually have it?'
'I quickly checked my UI, and tried every possible way to see past Leo's status, but couldn't… Adding him as a party member may give me the ability to access more information. But I won't, since, at this time, I will raise suspicions if I do.'
'In just this second, I have thought a lot. I have discovered many things and I feel that the knot of the situations happening around me has finally been unraveled.'
'The most important of them… The current me is false.'
'I am a personality created by the imbalance in my state, where all the points dedicated to intelligence made me a cold and calculating person. But I refuse to be 'someone fake' and call him the 'real me'. Even when I was born out of an imbalance, I am me and that's it.'
'[Do you want to save the profile of this state?]'
'[Yes]'
'[Smart Clone]'
'[Save]'
'I'll call him 'main body' and I'll consider myself a clone with a personality of its own.'
'Now then, I must solve the problem of the main body.'
'Emir (Intelligent): "…"'
'My goodness! spending 120 gold coins on just one woman who possesses [Masochist] in her state… I can only say that the main body is a stupid ape who thinks with his penis. With that money, it is possible to buy 3 to 5 houses, and here I am wasting money.'

'For this nonsense, you called me? My hand is shaking to get the status points back to normal, and let the main body fend for itself.'
'But if I do that, I'm afraid he'll never call me again.'
'Okay, this time I'll help you, main body.'
'"I understand that you have been captivated by her beauty, but Alessia's price is beyond even a noble's budget. She will be entered into an auction; only then will we recover what we invested. It is impossible to reserve her to you."'
'Hearing this, Alessia's face darkened.'
'I shook my head and said "I'll tell you why you should keep Alessia for me until I buy her"'
'"I hear you" Leo smiled.'
'At another time, that smile would have seemed so sincere and kind, but now… I can only see a man looking down on me, not because of my clothes but because of my personality. And I fully understand, even I despise the main body.'
'But Leo, you have to know something very important… I am different from the main body.'
'"Who is Alessia's father?"'
'Leo: "!!!"'
'I can get addicted to that look, but I'll leave such things to the main body. He's already rotten enough, one more addiction doesn't matter anymore. It won't change a thing.'
'"I don't want to bother you, Leo, much less you, Alessia"'
'"It's okay, don't worry" Alessia replied.'
'"Thank you. So, Leo, I'm sure that as an illegitimate daughter of a noble she must have a seal. She can't tell who her father is, not because she doesn't want to, but because her memories are sealed. I'm worried that by putting her up for auction you'll draw unwanted attention, and someone will swing their sword to cut out tongues... At worst, it'll be heads."'
'If I were to ask the main body, I'd bet he won't even remember that book that explains the slave system. In short, the nobles are authoritarian and they will shut up or kill whoever reveals their secrets. Even more so, if they are slaves.'
'Leo seemed to want to speak, but stopped. You don't need to say anything, I know that Alessia's life doesn't matter to you and, since you don't know anything, they won't do anything to you, right?'
'"The friction between the Drial Cenit and Castemira kingdoms has made slave prices irregular due to slaves coming from the opposite side, right? Slaves from there are very popular here and slaves from here are popular there, right?"
'Being able to 'tame' a person from the opposite kingdom is a fetish that many nobles have. Even more so, if the person to be tamed has noble blood.'
'"You will take Alessia to an auction of the Drial Cenit Kingdom, or am I mistaken? Aren't you afraid that Alessia's information will be disclosed and she will be killed in the course of the trip?"'
'Leo: "…"'
'Alessia: "!!!"'
'As the illegitimate daughter of a noble, Alessia will sell very well in the enemy kingdom. But, will Alessia's father keep quiet and do nothing? He will most likely send someone to assassinate her, and his best chance will be on the journey between the two kingdoms.'
'"As the saying goes, family problems stay at home. As long as she stays in the Castemira kingdom, they won't do anything to her, but if she leaves…"'
'After all, if she falls into the wrong hands. Through certain methods, there is a small chance of freeing her from the seal and, thereby, learning all its secrets.'
'During this entire conversation, Leo has not said anything. I feel my words have penetrated very deeply into him. I'll just give it one last push, so everything falls into place.'
'I mentally control the user interface and then, casually, wave my hand across the table in front of me. At that very moment, neat towers of gold coins appeared on the table.'
'""!!!"" Not only Leo but Alessia was also surprised.'
'—Is he such a skilled adventurer?'
'—Even when I'm an adventurer myself, I've never been able to control inventory so easily!'
'"There are 58 gold coins that will be my first deposit. Give me time, and I will buy Alessia"'
