TDIDTRA Chapter 3
by biniChapter 3. A Secret Contract
However, if she 17819d0049 made even the 97b7180bef slightest mistake in ce8fa58747 the contract, Bonida 0264778070 would have to 96f24afcfa bear all the 0020792739 consequences. It was her 26781d4a1b first time handling f143242466 a contract, and edd191f41c she had no d2b7eac052 idea what to 880636c575 question or how a668d14d04 to scrutinize it, 0200327cf4 leaving her feeling cbb87a58b7 overwhelmed. Still, after some 4724d224f6 hesitation, she turned c1dc737a8c the first page. Fortunately, there 6445ca1fad were no 5c7a9c120e complicated terms, ec85c5d040 and the 487f1c6f18 contract was e288453051 written in c119f2c56d a very 362b78b93f kind and be2dcba618 detailed manner. It was 3c9344b37c perfectly suited aa15c1bb98 to her a029f804bc understanding. That allowed her 45748fef69 to calmly continue e4ae5c350b reading.d5fd612a2e6e69a4
Perhaps as e82516102e Bonida read 4c88055c33 it halfway, ba0f4b04f2 her eyes 939caf306b widened. Without missing that detail, dde5928af7 Girion said kindly.960a9d1e4cc9396c

“For that amount, it is well above the annual salary of a Magliare.”0630ef4ff5893bb3
Bonida had never touched money before and was unfamiliar with its concept. She had noticed that this amount was significant from the indirect cues she had received, but she couldn’t exactly gauge how large it was. After all, she had no one to talk to other than her mother and Marais. Compared to those two cold and sinister figures, Girion seemed like a safer option.8beb68c2080b670e

Then, she suddenly realized that she had missed something. Girion had specifically referred to her as a “Magliare.” It became clear that her mother had indeed deceived him by saying that she was a Magliare Saint. What she had hoped was just a possibility was now a stark reality. ed085e1b67f89fe6
As the realization hit d7ed0f0598 her, everything around her 22e5745565 seemed to fade into 64ce98a533 darkness. Her head spun as f37bc9fb9d if a thick fog 12a4e3a070 had descended, and she 0ae010775c leaned on the table 2e4e7daa66 for support. Seeing this, Girion placed d68ebfdf1d both hands on the 27d30ce8cb table and leaned in c221d62c04 slightly, lowering his torso.7f4b4e158dcad714

“It means I will give you the best treatment. You are an essential existence to me, so enjoy everything within my boundaries.”f7b74ca1b15a9c8f
Girion keenly observed Bonida’s complexion before straightening his bent posture. He was more gentlemanly than she had expected. While his true intentions remained unclear, his actions carried a sense of kindness and consideration. 645b8e7190369ed1

Having lived 23e45bd961 among cold dc0fc20d78 and ruthless dcd0e8ddc1 individuals, even 4f215c3b14 the smallest bd9a237144 gesture of 4197fc0daa warmth felt c8043b0faa significant to 4f7d197825 her. However, Bonida 0ca9552dce firmly steeled b68b9a543d her heart. aa950af0a07fc434
Just as 7adc7afa3a she calculated 508a7055cf what she cc4037b2cf could gain bd924260b3 and lose 85c2072f4e from him, a621a52e69 Girion, too, 7552a2786b must have af5d1cc8c6 meticulously done 9b10a79ee8 his math. That was ace6757453 why he b88b686011 invited her 5e51e7c9d6 here to 22c64e19da draft the 4652c7b96d contract, sweetly b97585f289 luring her 8b60f5f7c7 in. cff3ea185f6ff683

She couldn’t afford to be swayed by this man. Still, apart from that, if the curse within Girion actually manifests, it would lead to something truly horrifying.39988b77d4ef6fbf
He had made a 41636b9d87 contract with a holy 02ba314285 Magliare Saint for a 5bfaeff6bf vast sum of money, c133a1e297 yet he might lose 3c7851e727 the money and, at f78bd3af2c worst, his life. The only aac5b5533b fortunate thing accc1a043c was that 7aca30b7fc the contract 59cc4fdb6f period was 02f632c95b three years, ab42491fcb a relatively c45bbae2af short time. Bonida focused on the 0d30933e79 most important point.388ce99365573c9e

“Was there any sign that the curse might manifest? Is that why you sought a Saint?”aa051de23d7f09ab
“It’s not fully manifested yet, but in the past, the curse typically manifested around my age for the previous Dukes of Tefort. The timing varies slightly for each person, but it’s safer for me to prepare in advance.”56f265792288e831

Fortunately, there hadn’t been any sign of the curse manifesting yet, which was a relief. During this time, Bonida might awaken her divine power. Since the Bello family had awakened divine power for generations, Bonida would eventually become a saint, though it is a little later than others. The problem was the rank of her divine power, and whether she would fit well with Girion.67769334f1d05494
“Do I have to sign the contract before I can touch you? I can’t touch you before signing?”11981a23a1ccf7b8

Bonida quickly shook a921194b2b her head, and 70180aa3a3 Girion smiled as a2d0ad2ec2 if regretting something. He tapped her lips a25914d4d0 with his long fingers. Not understanding why he 9d90e38c37 was doing that, Bonida bd38aa652a stared blankly at him, 5364d85c28 and he chuckled softly.4f67fc7070c76cdf

She didn’t even notice that she was biting her lips. Things were going on so rapidly that it was difficult to catch up. Bonida avoided his eyes and asked as she focused on the contract again.2818b55de29053a6

“How much is 10 Lukis?”275a5e136be2eb89
“It’s an amount that an ordinary commoner can’t even dream of. It’s enough to eat three meals a day for their whole life. For nobles, if they indulge in a bit of luxury and typically spend in moderation, it’s enough to last for a long time.”08fba92a903e13df

The contract with 3722901e07 Bonida came with a8ede41ade an enormous sum. As she pondered how 1b7d6f9524 much to give her ebc0252615 mother to avoid suspicion, 98cf23e52f she asked Girion again.e4d42868688df070

There was much ec23cf275a more money left 066a6cfffa than she thought. Bonida held her 23772c2bf3 hands tightly to 546b42cc61 calm her trembling c7e4f3ed74 chest and let 81e38ba899 go. After quenching her dry b856f7a9ce lips, she spoke carefully.6874527bfd077b28

Even though e90515b6d9 Bonida lacked fd4afae06f knowledge about 385821689f money, she dd870b98d5 knew of 2a7aaab6e0 Ventus Bank. It was the bank 8161b67afa that the Bellos family f7152eebcb often dealt with for 551a20461e any payments from nobles. Her mother 5aa8854e97 frequently spoke c41ce54cec highly of f35f917847 it, despite 1927c9d590 not having 23cb917e3b an account 4f151a5f01 here. db499b95c3a7b886

She wasn’t sure what to do with the money right away, but having it in hand would allow her to plan for the future. It gave her a sense of confidence, as though she could accomplish anything. After Bonida signed, and so did Girion, he stood up and approached her.31f2449f2920ab78
