(A/n: Just so you know Y/n has the shield out of ridewatch for Most of this chapter also if your wondering where is the action just wait we're getting there also Y/n can't use his kamen rider form to level up against normal enemies why because Think about it what reason would I have Raphtalia in here)

Y/n continues to look down at the clearly sick raccoon girl shocked but is then snapped Out of it by The slavetrader.

Slavetrader: Sir.

Y/n turns and looks at the trader.

Trader: This slave is my recommendation.

Y/n walks over but looks back at where the girl is

Y/n:* Why do I get the feeling to protect?*

Y/n turns back to what the trader is showing him and sees what only can be described as a werewolf looking thing that Was way Higher In level than he was.

Trader: It's level 75.

Y/n:*This Things almost 20x my current level It could kill me without breaking a sweat.*

Y/n then turns to look at the trader.

Y/n: How much For this one?

Trader: Well it's highly capable in battle so how does 50 cold pieces sound.

Y/n then Scoffs then smirks.

Y/n: Showing me your most expensive One even tho I can't pay for it what's your aim?

Trader: My aim is To help you develop I keen eye you see because I'm sure you will become my best patron.

Y/n then Just Stares forward.

Trader: Well now that you have seen my best. Let me ask you what kind Slave would you like?

Y/n: one that's cheap and Obedient.

Y/n then sneaks a glance at Where the sick girl is. The trader speaks up.

Trader: So in other words a Demi Human?

The trader then starts walking towards where the girl is.

Trader: There not really suited for manual Labor or combat.

Y/n: If I need them in combat I'll train them.

The trader laughs and continues to walk forward now with y/n following him.

Trader: Thats a amusing Response when you don't believe in people.

Y/n:*Im gonna hate saying this* but slaves aren't people. training them is no different than upgrading my shield Or My powers.

The trader laughs Again.

Trader: well you've got me there.

They finally end up in front of The girls cage. The slave trader points at the girl.

Trader: these are the cheapest slave I can offer you from the left.

Y/n interrupts him.

Y/n: Oi you in the middle raise your head.

The girl coughs Then looks at y/n From the side.

Trader: the half raccoon is diseased and Has a mental disorder. I'm having a real hard time with her myself.

The girl Finally registers Y/n's presence and hides away in fear Causing y/n's heart some pain.

Trader: Her previous owner love torture you see.

Y/n:*If I ever find out who did it they will die!*

Y/n's eye glowed red for a split second before going back to normal. The trader continues.

Trader: I doubt she will last much longe-

Y/n: I've decided.

Trader: eh?

The trader looked over at y/n no one could see his eyes because his hair was over shadowing it.

Y/n: I'll take the raccoon girl.

The girl looked up fearfully at y/n's words

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

We open back up now In a small part of the tent Where we see y/n cut his thumb with a Knife drawing some blood. The blood drips down to a strange ink.

Trader: lets begin.

The trader walks over to the girl who looks at him Fearfully. The trader moves her hand to show a Strange crest on her Chest (a/n: right above Where her breasts Would/Will be) he grabs The ink and A brush. He wrights On the crest in a circular pattern. And once he's done the girl is covered in a Purple Electricity causing her to scream out in pain. Y/n goes over to her and looks towards the trader with a glare.

Y/n: hey!

The trader raises his hands.

Trader: Worry not the pain will seen Disappear. The slave crest on her chest makes it impossible for her to disobey you.

Y/n looks down at her Before hugging her surprising Trader and The girl.

Y/n: Don't worry it will pass.

Y/n looks In the corner of his vision and sees On his left Is A new Health bar that says Slave 1 instead of a name. Some settings Also pop up.

Y/n: Party member settings?

Trader: now the girl is all yours.

Y/n looks at the trader and digs into his pocket And Grabs A small pouch and places it infront of him.

Y/n: Thirty silvers right?

Y/n Helps the girl up gently and starts to walk out.

Trader: Theres one extra.

Y/n: That's your commission.

Y/n is now outside the tent With the girl. As there walking down the street towards A certain place. He looks at the girl.

Y/n: Hey I never asked but what is your name?

The girl Looks up At y/n then looks down.

Y/n: Hey I won't bite I just want to know your name.

She Finally looks back at y/n and finally answers.

Raphtalia: R-Raphtalia Sir.

Y/n Smiles.

Y/n: Raphtalia that's a nice name.

Y/n and Raphtalia Finally Make it to where y/n was taking them. Y/n opens the door where it is revealed to be Erhard's Shop.

Erhard: Welcome! Oh it's you kid and you seem to be in a better mood too.

Y/n walks forward with a small smile on his face with Raphtalia Shyly following behind him. Erhard Notices the girl and looks at y/n with a confused expression.

Erhard: Oi Oi what's with the kid?

Y/n sighs then places Some Silver infront of Him.

Y/n: her name is Raphtalia and She needs a weapon.

(Little timeskip)

We now see Raphtalia Walk Out from behind a curtain now wearing some actually clothes instead of just some brown Rags.

Y/n: i was gonna ask if you were ok because of how long you took.

Raphtalia Apologized.

Raphtalia: S-Sorry!

Y/n Just sighs slightly.

Y/n: Anyways Raphtalia draw your knife.

Raphtalia looks slightly confused.

Raphtalia: eh?

Y/n then opens His Arm And shows a orange balloon on his side biting him. Raphtalia backs up in fear.

Y/n: Ok I want you to stab this Thing and burst it.

Raphtalia: N-No!

Y/n was about to say that's a order but he remembers what will happen if she disobeys After that so he lets out a deep breath.

Y/n: come in Raphtalia You can do it!

Raphtalia Steels her resolve and rush's at the balloon With the knife but it bounces off It.

Y/n: Cmon You can Do it!

Raphtalia then stabs it a second time with everything she has and it pops causing her to fall to the ground and y/n to stagger slightly. Y/n notices a exp pop appeared for both of them.

Y/n: Huh we both got exp?

Erhart then spoke up.

Erhart: Probably Because you set her as a companion when preforming the pact you didn't do that with that lady from before?

Y/n:......that skank.

Y/n then looks back at Raphtalia.

Y/n: Hey listen up Raphtalia!

Raphtalia looks up at y/n.

Y/n: from here on out I expect you to fight monsters for me I Bought you with what little money I had so I Want you to work as hard as you can Ok.

Y/n then walks out Out but stops at the door.

Y/n: Hey you coming Raphtalia?

Raphtalia Gets up quickly.

Raphtaling: Y-Yes!

As the door shuts Erhard sighs.

(Scene shift)

We now see y/n and Raphtalia Walking. Y/n Looks down at his hand To see how much silver he has left.

Y/n: *So I only 3 silver left I'll have to spend it wisely*

???: Move it move it!

Y/n: Huh?

Y/n looks Over and sees two Demi Children moving stuff onto a cart with a man standing near them with what looks like a Whip in his hand.

???: We don't have all day you little shits!

Raphtalia Bumps into y/n as y/n stares on with a glare on his face. as the youngest one Was Moving some Food he fell and dropped the bag on the ground. The man got angry.

???: What's wrong with you moron!

Y/n sees what seems like the older Sister of the two run over to her brother to help him up.

Demi-Human: I'm sorry!

Y/n Glares at the man in Hatred. Before suddenly he hears a strange growl. looks around for a second and sees its Raphtalia making that sound.

Y/n: Hey you hungry?

Raphtalia Shakes her head.

Raphtalia: No

Y/n: Cmon you can't fight on a empty stomach.

Y/n then walks forward.

Y/n: Lets get some grub.

Raphtalia: eh?

Raphtalia follows y/n until they stand infront of a restaurant. As y/n walks in Raphtalia Reads the sigh.

Raphtalia: U-Um.

Y/n then peaks his head out.

Owner: Welcome!

Patron: Ack it's the shield hero!

Patron2: is He is the rapist?

Patron3: Yeah not only that but he also said he dreams to be a king.

Patron4: Shh he will hear you!

Y/n takes a seat with Raphtalia sitting in the seat across from him. Y/n looks up at a waiter.

Y/n: Can I order?

Waiter: Huh? I-I guess...

The waiter walks up to There table.

Y/n: I would like the cheapest lunch you got.

Y/n than notices A family Eating.

Y/n: She will have Whatever the kid is having.

Waiter: That will be nine coppers.

Y/n: here.

Y/n hands the waiter the money. And as the waiter walks away Raphtalia speaks up.

Raphtalia: Why?

Y/n: Hm did you want something else?

Raphtalia shakes her head.

Raphtalia: Why are you getting it for me?

Y/n smiles.

Y/n: Because it looked like you wanted to Try it.

When the waiter comes back with there food Raphtalia Stares at it with stars in her eyes.

Waiter: Here's your food.

She stares in awe at the food with y/n smiling at her happiness.

Y/n: Well are you going to eat it?

Raphtalia: Eh really?

Raphtalia Takes the flag off the meal and stares at it. Y/n picks up a spoon and Hands it to Her.

Y/n: well eat up.

Raphtalia Started to eat the food and started to eat it too fast until she eventually needed something to drink. Y/n hands her a glass of water.

Y/n: Here drink this.

Raphtalia Drinks the water and lets out a sigh of relief after she finishes.

Y/n: Is it good?

Raphtalia looks up at y/n with a smile And nods her head yes.

Y/n Smiles slightly Then takes a Piece of his food and eats It. Y/n looks down disappointed.

Y/n: *Fuck I can't taste anything still*

Y/n: Whew it looks like I'm almost done.

Meanwhile in raphtalia's nightmare.

We see her and her parents running Towards a cliff edge away from something. As they get to the cliff edge They look behind them. To see a armored Figure Walking towards them.

???: Raccoon & Tanuki......BEST MATCH.

Her parents look at her with sad smiles on there faces.

Her dad: We're sorry Raphtalia.

Her mom: We want you to live Raphtalia please forgive us for our selfishness.

They then push her off the edge into the water and the last thing Raphtalia sees is her parents Durning into what she thinks is dust before she wakes up.
