Master-Slave Ritual

Jason waited for Emily to calm down but she doesn't seem to stop at all.

"What's the use of crying for someone who is already dead for 900 years?"

Jason said and walked towards the pit and sat down near it and try to figure out something.

Emily glared at Jason angrily after hearing him say those words, she wanted to curse back but she didn't, she knows what he said is true.

She knows that her father is dead for 900 years and she is the reason behind it, she has no right to mourn for him, it is all because of her's and her sister's stupid decision 900 years ago.

She got up and walked towards him.

"I hate you for killing my sister but like I said before she was not my sister when that happened, you also saved me from the Soul-Leech"

She paused for a second and stared at Jason, he just kept staring at the pit, he is actually sending his aura inside the pit to see how deep it really is.

Emily took a deep breath and continued to talk.

"I hate to do this but from now on my life, body and soul belongs to you"

Jason got startled by this sudden decision of Emily and looked at her.

"Why would your life, body, and soul belong to me?"

"Even though I have lived for more than 900 years now, I still have the mindset of the girl who lived 900 years ago, an old civilized lady who would have been married to some noble just for some politics, at least this decision is my own and I would appreciate if you honor it"

Emily said with a sigh.

"And what if I am not interested?"

Jason said and smiled at her.

"I don't want to be your wife, you can keep me as your mistress but you have to take me under your protection"

"And why should I do that?"

"If you want the energy source that is buried under this city, I will help you get it"

Jason stopped and thought about it.

He knew she is talking about the energy source that Bran had mentioned before, he really wanted to check something he though yesterday night.

"How can you help me get my hands on that energy source, you are not under the control of a Soul-leech anymore"

"I am not but I still hold its magic and I know how to perform it"

"Wait? you can use the Soul-Magic of the Soul-Leeches?"

"Yes, the Soul-Leech that was inside me developed its magic in my body itself, making my body the container of its magic source, now that I have its memories as well, I can use its magic as if it is my own, if these memories are true then I would be called a Soul Mage"

"Soul Mage?"

"Yes, from the memories I could tell that people like me exist who can use soul magic, but they didn't obtain their magic like how I did"

"What do you mean?"

"It seems that these Soul Mages came to existence when someone like me was able to come to this world, a human who harness a Soul-Leech who has already learned its soul art and that Soul-Leech somehow dies before its host its magic will be transferred to its host body"

She paused then continued to talk forward.

"The Soul Mages who are present now are the descended of someone who was like me in the past"

Jason understood what she is saying.

He really hated all this complex pool of power and how they got it but he still has to keep them in mind as he might need them in the future.

"So you really can get me that energy source?"

"Yes, until you don't take me under your care"

Jason didn't know what to say, he had never seen a woman who would willingly give up on her freedom.

"How do I know that you won't betray me one day?"

"If you are concerned about my betrayal we can perform a ritual that will make you my master. If I ever betray you I will die"

Jason was tracking her movements and heartbeat to see if what she is saying is true or not.

'If I have one more slave that would make it 3, well I really don't mind having more beautiful women by my side who won't betray me'

Jason looked at her and suddenly the outer circle of his eyes glowed, Emily fell into a trance and Jason approached her.

"Whatever you said just now, is it all true?"

Jason asked

"Yes"

Emily answered naturally, confirming that what Emily said was all true Jason backed off

"Does it have any side effects? Is it harmful to my life"

"No, there are no side effects, this is just a master-slave ritual which will bind me to your soul and not the opposite, you can sever this bond whenever you want and it will lead to my death"

"You may come out"

Jason pulled her out of his manipulation and looked at her.

Emily seems to be surprised by this, she clearly remembers what just happened but she could tell that just a second ago she wanted to answer all questions this man in front of her wanted to ask, she felt like she would do anything this man would tell her to do.

"What did you do?"

Emily asked.

"Nothing, since you are not lying let's perform this ritual then talk further"

Jason said.

"Ok"

Emily said and started to prepare for the ritual, after a while she started to draw weird patterns in thin air from her soul magic, these patterns then got printed on the ground.

Emily and Jason then stepped in and Emily soon started to perform the ritual, she cut open herself and let her blood drip down on the patters.

Soon the patters turned red and Emily started to speak.

"I Emily Stoneshire, the daughter of the late King Richard, will from this very moment dedicate my life, body, and soul to this man who is standing in front of me, from this moment onward I take this man Jason as my only master and oath to never betray him"

As she finished this saying the patters glowed even brighter and it started to float and rotate around Emily soon planting itself between her breast.

Jason watched in fascination as this ritual went along.

Emily closed her eyes and took a deep breath.

"Master"

She said and raised forward and kissed Jason's lips, and with this kiss, the pattern between her breast shined brightly and became permanent.

Jason was really intrigued by this soul magic, from the moment Emily kissed him he could feel her presence, he felt like he could communicate with her anytime he wants with just a thought.

"This is really interesting"

"Master, from now on you can talk to me by just thinking about me and I will be able to reply back to you. If you want you can even figure out what I am thinking or read my mind directly"

Emily answered.

"This magic thing is really convenient, do you think others can learn it?"

"No only someone with my condition or a descendant of someone who had the same condition as me can do soul magic"

Emily answered, she looked at Jason, from this moment this man will be her everything, even if he betrays her she cannot do anything.

She had no choice but to make this decision, if she didn't she might just die.

Jason knew that Emily didn't make this decision just to stay with him, he knows she has a reason and he is about to ask what it is.
