Another Slave Candidate

Today is June 10th, after school on Friday. Emily Parker went to school only on Wednesday, and although I continued to cast favour spells on Jessica White, I didn't make any particular movements.

While remembering such a thing, I reviewed today's lesson and prepared for next week's lesson at the library. I'm here because Isla contacted me.

Last night, I received a phone call asking me to go to the library after school because there was a woman she wanted to introduce to me. I didn't have any particular business, and I was interested in the woman, so I agreed and waited.

"Ethan."

After a while, I finally heard a voice. When I lifted my face, behind Isla who was smiling was a pretty neat woman with a good style standing there.

"Senior Isla. It's been a while."

"Yes, it's been a while."

As I was lightly chatting with Isla, her companion, who seemed absentminded, spoke to Isla.

"Um... Senior Isla?"

"Hmm?"

"This is...?"

"Ah, this is a boy who I was tutoring for about two years. He is Ethan Carter, and he is a freshman in the regular course attached to our college."

"I see."

"Ethan, This is Charlotte Reed, a first-year student in the literature faculty. She approached me in the cafeteria and we talked to each other."

"Ah, yes. Hello, I'm Ethan Carter."

"Nice to meet you. I'm Charlotte Reed."

"By the way, senior Isla... You said that she started talking to you in the cafeteria, does that mean..."

"Don't say it. I know she misunderstood me as a first-year student..."

"I-I'm sorry, senior Isla..."

"It's okay... Well then, we'll get going, I don't want to interrupt your studies."

"Yes, Senior Isla. Goodbye, Charlotte."

"Yes. Excuse me, Ethan."

After showing her face and introducing herself, Isla said her goodbyes and left with Charlotte. Although her beauty is inferior to Isla's, Charlotte Reed has something that Isla lacks in terms of physique, and she passed the test with flying colours.

That weekend, as usual, I got some information about that woman from Isla, whom I made love to. She was from a certain northern prefecture, quite rural, and had no acquaintances here at all.

For that reason, Isla took care of her and seems to have earned a considerable amount of trust. That's one of the reasons why she introduced her this time, Isla told me.

"That means there are other reasons."

"Actually... She seems to be on the radar of a certain bad circle of people."

"A bad circle? Some kind of party boys group?"

"Yes, it's a famous circle at the university in a bad way."

Upon hearing more details, it seems that a third-year student who is representing the school is the problem. He's a muscle-brained guy whose only pride is his well-trained body, and he has rich parents and a politician in his family.

I was worried about whether Isla was okay, but she told me that it was only last year that the group became a party circle and that the current sophomores and younger ones would be the victims.

There was something that came to mind when I heard such a story, so I tried to confirm it.

"Is there anything Master can do with his power?"

"Well, I'll try for the time being. Tell me who they are on Monday."

"Yes. Thank you very much."

I'd rather have Charlotte Reed be my slave than fall prey to them. At any rate, I have an idea of the magic I can use, so this is where I come in.

By the way, I talked about magic with Isla and Erika, who were turned into lewd crest slaves. It is said that they can also feel magical powers after becoming lewd crest slaves.

If I teach them magic, the two of them might be able to use it. While thinking that it might be a good idea to let Isla study as a trial, our meeting ended.

After school on Monday, I met up with Isla at the library. The excellent Isla had already investigated the whereabouts of that muscle-brained guy at this time of the day.

Isla led me to the cafe where he was located. I hid to check it out and found a large man, who looked exactly like a muscle-brain, in the middle of a loud and foolish conversation with three other men.

"The top and executives are over there."

"Executives?"

"Yes, they're the people supporting the leader."

"I see. Well, just like I thought. Isla, please wait here."

"Understood. Take care."

Seen off by her who spoke in a low voice, I casually passed by the side of the troublesome gang. At that time, I cast a certain spell at the four people who were making a fuss.

After that, I took a detour and returned to Isla. Then, we walked shoulder to shoulder away from the party group.

"Um... What was that just now?"

"It was a simple curse magic."

Curse magic.

Since it was in the magic books, I had mastered only the early curse magic that was not difficult to master. Since it was only in the early stage, the effect was not so great.

However, the magic I used this time was a special one. Specifically, it is a magic that amplifies curses from others.

When I was in junior high school, I tried using students I didn't like as test subjects, but I couldn't see any effect. I speculate that the curse from others needs to be extremely strong for the magic to work effectively.

This time, the guys seemed to have cleared that up with no problem, so it was also an experiment.

"For the time being, I'll see how it goes for a few days."

"I understand."

"If the effect is not visible, then it's time for the next stage."

After hearing this story, I've been training curse magic in a hurry. As expected, it seems to take a long time to be able to master effective magic, so I hoped that today's magic would be the end of it.

***

The next night, I got a call from Isla. According to her story, the curse magic seems to have been successfully activated.

"It is said that he got drunk and fell down the stairs that night."

"...What about his injuries?"

"I've heard from people that he has a spinal cord injury and is currently paralyzed in the lower half of his body."

"I see. What about the other three?

"There is no particular information at this time."

"Okay. Please contact me if anything happens."

"Yes, I understand."

For the time being, the representative muscle-brained guy seems to have fallen prey to the curse. The fact that the curse exploded on the same day it was cast indicated that he must have borne a considerable grudge.

The next step is to see what happens to the other three. If something happens to the leader and the executives, the party group will disappear.

Otherwise, the new upper management is going to need some curse magic.

The next Sunday, Charlotte Reed, via Isla, asked me to do a certain favour for her. Simply put, she asked me to help her with her shopping.

She wanted to go shopping for things that require a man's help, but she hadn't found anyone suitable for the job until now. As a result, the task was passed on to me through Isla's introduction.

I also want to get along with her in various ways, and it's natural for me to accept since it also saves Isla from any trouble.

On Saturday, I had business with Isla, and it was a Sunday afternoon on the weekend when there was nothing unusually erotic. I waited at the time and place designated by Charlotte.

After waiting for about fifteen minutes at a certain station, she appeared right on time with straight black hair that reached her waist, swaying in the wind.

"Ethan. Thank you for waiting."

"Hello, Charlotte."

The appearance of Charlotte, who is quite a beautiful woman, attracted the gazes of the men who seemed to be waiting for someone else. Then their gazes turned to me, her companion.

I got the feeling that the people were thinking that the companion for such a beautiful woman was a child. However, I felt a sense of superiority when I was stared at with jealousy and envy, and I felt good about it.

"Shall we go then?"

"Yes. Where do we start?"

"I have everything planned out. We'll start from here."

When she took my arm, she started walking briskly. For some reason, Charlotte linked arms with me like a lover, and with a smile, she led me along.
