Once I finished jotting down the terms of the contract, I signed it with my alias, which, although not my real name, was still recognized as an acceptable title in the eyes of Arkadia, and with a flick of my wrist, sent the monster-hide parchment toward Renni, who caught it and immediately began reading through it.
"You only have two options: sign the contract and sell yourself to me for eternity, or get your mind washed….I suppose there is also option three, where I kill you since that is easily achieved as well." Shrugging my shoulders, I watched as Renni read through the tiny printed terms.
But when I noticed the tremble in her hands, along with the clock showing time ticking by slowly, I decided to take out a bottle of particle water, swig down a few sips, and then place my dagger on the couch beside me in plain sight.

The latter was a clear provocation to the young lady to hurry up. It seemed to do the trick because not long after I revealed my dagger, she pulled out a pen similar to the one I had used to write the contract in my blood and, with hesitation in her eyes and a shaky hand, signed her name at the bottom on the back of the parchment.
In an instant, the text flashed in brilliant crimson light, the signal that it had been accepted by Arkadia, and with a wave of my hand, the contract rolled up into a tight, neat scroll before disappearing into my inventory.
"Wow, gotta admit, I didn’t expect you actually to sign that; I guess I can still be surprised, anyway; I suppose I don’t need this around you anymore." Then, with all the suddenness and lack of anticipation, I slid up my mask and stored it away, revealing the face of Xipher to one of only a handful ever to learn what I truly look like.
I also dropped the accent I had been using since walking into Renni’s home.
"Huh?" While in the process of reaching down and grabbing my dagger to put it away, I heard Renni make a strange exclamation. When I turned to look at her, I found the young princess with her jaw dropped open, and her right arm extended out, pointing at me with shock.
Giving her a strange and confused look, I glanced around as if looking for what was so shocking before smirking at her.
"What, did you think that I wore my mask 24/7? Hell no, do you even know how stuffy that damn Vorhees mask is when compared to the ones I crafted in the Origin Timeline?"
"Not only did they have a voice changer but also air purifiers and even fans for ventilation." Bouncing off the couch and onto my feet, I walked in front of Renni.
"What? No, I had a feeling you would reveal your face to me at some point, only I didn’t think it would be so soon; instead, I swear to god I recognize you, but it’s impossible, weren’t you a Hero? Also, what’s with the American accent?" Slightly flabbergasted, Renni dropped her hand but kept wearing a confused and shocked expression.
"Uh….first off, although I WAS once registered with the USAHA, I had long since "Died" on paper; if you recognize my face, that is pretty impossible. I have a perfect memory and would remember if we had ever met each other. And as for the American accent….that’s because I’m from America, Duh." Shaking my head, I walked past Renni, but not before patting her on the shoulder and saying.
"Welcome to hell, Xilia, do enjoy your stay," with a loud bout of laughter, I left the princess, to whom I had given a new name, and went off to fetch Vincent, who had been left in the town car with the Driver for over an hour now.
"No…I recognize you from the list of faces…from the Atlanta Incident," Unfortunately, right as I pulled up my hood and went to open the front door, Renni appeared beside me and whisper-shouted into my left ear.
"Oh? Well, it seems I’m not the only one with a perfect memory, but I hardly look anything like I did as an adult. Sure, some features carried over, but being able to recognize me as de-aged is quite impressive." Rolling my eyes, I walked out of the mansion, the princess in tow, down the stairs, and up to the town car.
"I mean, it isn’t that hard; I just shrunk down the image of you I had in my head, and I could see the resemblance. So wait, you faked your death, then what decided to become a Villain…that’s a pretty big jump to make out of the blue." Struggling to keep pace with me, thanks to her attire, Renni kept babbling on and on in my ear.
"Hardly, when the very people who swore an oath to uphold justice and protect the innocent ambush you during a family get-together and kill everyone but your brother and sister-in-law, along with years of being treated as lower than pig shit thanks to your Low-Grade Talent, it tends to change your perspective on life." Casually knocking on the window of the back seat of the car, I didn’t bother looking back at Renni’s reaction. Instead, I focused on the window as it rolled down, revealing an expressionless Vincent.
"Vincent, meet Renni, Renni, Vincent, Oi, Driver look here," opening the door and introducing Slave-One to Slave-Two, I set my sights on the Driver. When he looked me in the eye, I activated my talent and ambushed him with a fuckton of PC, turning his brain into Swiss cheese while using my Coersion skill.
"Drive South seventy or so kilometers and suddenly lose control over your vehicle while going 160 kph; make sure you hit something hard and Die, Kay byyyyee." Slamming the door shut, I turned and looked at my two slaves.
