Capítulo 322: Protection [1]

"So you're saying that you defeated her and in doing so convinced her to sign a mana contract with you?"

Douglas's clear voice echoed throughout the room. 

"That's correct." 

I replied with a nod. 

Since the cat was out of the bag, I came clean about Angelica.

I told Douglas and Waylan everything that had happened between Angelica and me, from how I defeated her to how I made her sign a mana contract with me and how we came to the current working relationship. 

I, of course, altered a few of the details about the story.  After all, I couldn't just tell him that I defeated her through the use of the red book. 

All I told him was that Angelica was heavily injured before fighting me, and that was how I was able to defeat her. 

"…I see."

Stroking his beard, Douglas looked at Waylan, who looked back at him. 

"Do you have a copy of the mana contract with you?"

Waylan asked from the side. 

"I do."
