Chapter 10 The first spell.

Paul had no idea that he had picked up a slave with such a precious gift and he decided to mark both girls as his, the moment he healed the older girl.

-Can you draw a map that shows the place where you were attacked by the rabbits?

He asked, hoping that she could as this would make finding the place easy and he wouldn't have to bring them along to find the place.

-Yes master, I can but why would you want that?

She asked, not understanding his intentions.

-I want to know where it is to go and see if there are more rabbits there.

He answered without lying but also not telling her the whole truth.

The girl nodded and started to draw a new map that depicted a larger area this time.

Paul was impressed with her work and left her to it while he went to see the older girl and finally heal her injuries.

The girl wasn't sleeping but she was lost in thought and she didn't even notice him until he was already beside her.

Seeing him this close made her panic for a moment as she immediately imagined that he would force himself upon her.

However, after her first startled reaction, she calmed down.

-If he wanted my body, he could have taken it whenever he wanted.

She thought.

This was the truth and if he wanted to take advantage of her then there was absolutely nothing that she could have done to stop him even if she wasn't injured.

Also, she would soon become his slave, and when that happened he would simply have to order her to pleasure him and she would have to obey his command.

-Am I really that scary?

Paul asked when he saw how frightened she was and unaware of her thoughts about his intentions.

-You are not scary but I was lost in thought when you approached and that is why I was startled.

She answered.

He noticed that she had never called him master like her little sister, it seemed that this one was a bit reluctant to admit that he was her master now.

This amused him as soon she would have to call him master no matter how stubborn she was.

-I came to heal your injuries so you don't have to be scared.

He said trying to calm her down a bit since she was afraid of him for some reason.

This was something that he found funny, this girl was afraid of him but instead of being submissive, she decided to act tough.

-Who said that I'm scared of you?

The girl's temperament flared the moment she heard his words.

She hated it when someone told her that she was afraid of something.

Paul couldn't help but laugh at her little temper tantrum and the hateful glare she sent him.

She was helpless right now and if he wanted to he could do anything he wanted to her without any problem at all, yet she was this feisty just because he said that she didn't have to be afraid of him.

-What is so funny?

The girl asked enraged by his amusement.

-You are.

Paul said with an amused smile on his lips and then he flicked her forehead.

-What was that for?

She asked holding her head as the flick hurt a lot.

-That was to calm you down, dummy.

You don't seem to understand the situation you are in, so let me enlighten you a bit.

Paul said his voice serious now and the amusement gone.

-Both you and your sister belong to me now and even if you didn't then it is a bad idea to piss off someone who is trying to help you not to mention can do whatever he wants with you.

I may not punish you for some minor mistakes but I won't tolerate disrespect, especially from my slave.

So I advise you to keep that temper of yours in check unless you want to find out the consequences of angering me.

These words stunned the girl and only now she understood that her attitude towards him was disrespectful and it might have angered him.

What made her scared however was not what he could do to her but that he could punish her sister for her actions.

-I'm sorry, please don't punish my sister for my mistakes.

She pleaded and even tried to bow down to him but he stopped her from getting up.

-It was never my intention to punish your sister for what you did.

But don't try my patience as you will regret it if you manage to anger me.

Paul warned her.

He wasn't a cruel man and he never intended to punish them if it could be helped but at the same time he understood that at a bare minimum, she should respect him.

-Now lay down and don't move.

He instructed her and to his surprise, she did what she was told without any bickering or hesitation.

It seemed that she finally figured out that she was a slave and had to obey him.

Paul focused and started to gather mana in his hand turning it into the light element as this element had the best basic healing spells as far as he knew.

The goblin girl looked astonished at a ball of light that grew on the human palm.

-Is this magic?

She thought.

When the ball of light element reached the size of a tennis ball it was surrounded by inscriptions and rune signs on all sides.

Paul cast this spell slowly to avoid making mistakes and once it was ready he pushed the ball of energy into the girl's stomach.

The ball of light entered her body slowly and once it was all inside it sent a wave of energy throughout her body making it glow with white light and her wounds started to disappear at an incredible rate.

The whole thing was over in a couple of seconds and after the light enveloping her body disappeared she felt no more pain and her injuries were gone like they never existed in the first place.

The girl was shocked and terrified at the same time.

If he could heal then he could also kill with this power and she was disrespectful towards him just a few moments ago.

This finally made her realize that she was playing with fire, and the flick on her head was nothing compared to what he could do to her if she made him angry.

When she first heard that her sister sold them into slavery in exchange for their lives and healing them, she was not too happy about the idea as she knew what the slaves of her clan had to go through every day and she would rather die than have to live like that especially since their master was a human and all humans hated goblins so their lives would be certainly unpleasant, to say the least.

However, she had no choice in the matter as this human already started healing her by the time she regained consciousness, and if she took her own life who knew what fate would await her sister?

The last few days were quiet and she was even fed fish and meat by her sister who claimed that this was her meal given to her by their master.

Also, the human never laid his hands on any of them except for bringing her sleeping sister inside once and he left right after that not realizing that she wasn't sleeping and saw the whole thing.

He wasn't treating them like slaves and this made her think that they were equals especially since he was looking to be her age at most.

That was the reason for her behavior but now she knew her place and promised herself to never disrespect him again as she was unable to bear the consequences if she angered him.

Paul left the shelter after casting the healing spell.

This was the first spell in his second life so he cast it slowly to avoid making a mistake.

Normally this kind of spell only took seconds to cast since it was a basic healing spell.

However, the first spell cast by a mage was many times more powerful for some reason than the spells that the mage cast after that.

Unfortunately, most mages from Earth didn't know that and wasted their first spall in training.

He on the other hand was able to heal the girl in one shot instead of another three or four spells that would be required to fully heal her.
