Chapter 12 Talking to Meena with Skills

 I need a skill that will allow me to communicate with Meena.

 I was worried that I wouldn't be able to find the right skills, but a few quickly popped into my head. It seemed to be able to sort them automatically. That's convenient.

『Beastmaster』『Slavemaster』『Pick-Up』『Counceling』『Leadership』

『Charisma』『Absolute Obedience』『Petting』『Companionship』『Bonding』

『Mind Reading』『Persuasion』『Medical Examination』『Formulation』『Harem Formation』

『Skill Party Sharing』

 I understand the first two, but "Pick up"? What the hell? It's not like I'm trying to pick up this guy... well, one point is cheap. I'll take it. Anyway, I can't stand this atmosphere and silence.

 I took it twice and raised it to "Pickup Lv. 2". I also looked at "Absolute Obedience" and "Mind Reading", but the points required were too high. The same goes for "Charisma," "Leadership," "Bonding," and "Medical Examination."

 I have 33 points available right now, but I'm going to exclude the expensive skills that I don't think I can get.

 The rest of the skills are listed in order of points, starting with the cheapest.

『Petting』

『Companionship』

『Beastmaster』

『Slavemaster』

『Counseling』

『Persuasion』

『Formulation』

『Harem Formation』

『Skill Party Sharing』

 "Petting", I took it because I could get it for one point, even though I had a feeling that I was too old for it.

『Petting Lv1』New!

 It would be the same if I stroked her normally, but I'm too lazy to get up the courage to do so without using my skills, you know?

 Don't worry, she's a slave, I'm allowed to do a few crazy things, in this world.

 『Companionship』is a good thing, but I'll probably be basically solo, so I don't need this kind of coordination skill.

 『Beastmaster』 and 『Slavemaster』is probably has similar effect, and I feel that only one is good. If you have both of them, you might be able to duplicate the effect, but for now, I can just use the 『Slavemaster』 one. Even though Meena is a beastman, she can speak human language, and so far, she's been quiet.

『Slavemaster Lv1』New!  

 It's take it in two points. I have 30 points left.

 『Counseling』 and 『Persuasion』, I feel like this is pretty much the same kind of skill. If you're a guy, you'd probably want to "Persuasion" someone, but I don't know. I'm not into that.

『Counceling Lv1』New!

 I'm a little worried about Meena, so I gave it some serious thought and decided to go with this one, which costs 3 points.

 『Formulation』is, I don't know what that means, so I'm not going to take it. Does it mean that I should mix some medicinal herbs that will make me feel better? Or is it an aphrodisiac and ...... that way!? Either way, I don't have any medicinal herbs that look like that, and I don't think I can use them right now.

『Harem Formation』

 Hmm. Well, as a man, of course I want to keep it. I want to keep it, but I don't have much time to play with it.

 It's an expensive skill that costs 20 points.

『Skill Party Sharing』

 This is it.

 My sixth sense is telling me that this is very important. If I could share my "Increased Skill Points Lv5" and "Increased Experience Lv2" with Meena, it would make it much easier to level up the party.

 But I have 25 points, and most of the rest will be consumed.

『Skill Party Sharing Lv1』New!

 ...I've done it. I don't regret it, but if Meena leaves the party soon and goes back to being a solo player, I'm really going to cry.

 I have two points left, but I'll stop here.

 Well.

 『Pickup Lv2』『Counseling Lv1』『Slavemaster Lv1』

 Using these three skills...

"Listen, Meena. I've become your master, but I'm going to do as little ordering as possible. I don't want to do anything you don't want to do, and I want to get along with you. So just give me a little time. Two weeks should be fine. If, after two weeks, you find me to be an untrustworthy master, just tell me. At that point, I'll talk to Merlot and have him take you in. Is that clear?"

"Then take me back, right now!"

 My heart skipped a beat, wondering what I would do if she said that, but Meena thought about it for a moment and then gave me a small nod. Fuu~

"I've brought it for you, sir."

 The innkeeper came in empty-handed. Behind him, two well-built men brought a large tub and placed it there. I looked at their arms and saw the slave crest, so I thought, "The Innkeper uses slaves too."

 They had prepared cloths for her to wipe her body, but no change of clothes. It seems that I have to prepare her own clothes.

"It costs two gold.

 That's a bit expensive.

"Here you go."

"Okay, thank you. Well, boys, you'll have to bring more hot water later."

 The innkeeper told them and left.

"Oh, I need a change of clothes. I'm going to run and get some. Meena, why don't you take a bath first?"

"Bath? Oh, you mean bathing, don't you?"

"Yes."

 Isn't "bath" a common word? Well, she's understood, so it doesn't matter either way.

***

"Excuse me!

 I went to a clothing store and asked them to sell me a set of clothes, even though the store was closed and the door was locked. It was for a dog-eared girl. The underwear had a slit in the buttocks so that the tail could come out. The underwear was a pair of bloomers, but it didn't matter at this point.

 I thought about buying some extra clothes, but I thought it would be better to let Meena choose her own. I'm sure she's not happy to be dressed in clothes that don't match her taste.

 I quickly returned to the inn.

"Meena"

'Y-yes"

 Meena, who had turned her back to me and was bathing in the hot water, she hid her breasts in obvious nervousness.

"I've brought you a change of clothes, I'll leave them here."

"Thank you very much."

 Since she's my slave, I can admire her washing herself proudly from the front, but well, it's her first day. She doesn't look like she's used to being a slave either, so it's better to treat her like a normal girl.

"Then, I'm going back to my room, so you can tell the innkeeper when you're done bathing."

"I understand."

 I lay down on the bed in my room and sighed heavily.

 Well, what's bought is what's done.

 At first I wondered what would happen to Meena, but she doesn't seem to be rebellious, so I think I can manage.

"... Isn't she taking to long? Mmm! No way, Is she escaped!?"

 Oh no. I didn't keep an eye on her...

 No, wait. If slaves could escape that easily, slavery wouldn't exist. She's tied up with the slave crest, so it's probably okay.

 When I went downstairs to check on her, Meena was still washing herself.

 Phew.

 As I waited in my room again, there was a knock at the door.

"Oh. Meena?"

"Yes, I've just finished bathing."

"Okay, well, you can come in now."

"Excuse me."

"Mmm!?"

 The lamp in the room was dark, so I couldn't see much, but she looked like she was awfully clean.

 Her gray hair seemed to be pure white, and I wondered why she had made it so dirty.

"Ah, um, what is it?"

"No, you, is your hair white?"

"Yes. Oh, I got a little out of control. No, it's nothing."

 She's out of control...

"If you have any complaints, I'll listen to you, but first you have to speak up. Well, mmm, I only have one bed."

"No problem. I'm used to sleeping on the floor."

"Hmm, No, you can use it today, Meena. You must be tired."

"No, not at all, sir. A slave should not be in bed with his master."

"Then, you want to sleep with me?"

"Eh!? No, I mean..."

"You can't?"

"No, I'm fine...".

 Meena says so, but her brow wrinkles and she looks away. She even shrinks back.

"Then, Let's do rock, paper, scissors!"

 It seems that rock-paper-scissors is the same in this world as well, so Meena choose a paper, I choose a scissor, and I win.

"Then I'll take the floor."

"Eeh? Isn't the winner usually take the bed?"

"Come on, that's your master order."

".....I understand. Uhm!, thank you very much."

 I couldn't sleep without a pillow, so I asked for a blanket and a pillow, and slept on the floor.

 Meena doesn't have a blanket, but I'll think about whether to ask her to come in tomorrow or get another room. If I woke up the innkeeper's father now, he might be annoyed.

 As I slept, I heard Meena sobbing from her bed.

 It's so heavy.

 Well, I won't ask why. It's okay if I can do something about it, but if not, there's nothing I can do about it. The more I hear about it, the worse it will make me feel.
