All of a sudden my eyes opened, at first I went into alert mode since I was having a hard time for the past few days but soon I realized I was worried over nothing.

Though one more realization hit me the next second; \'Fuck!\' I screamed internally and quickly looked below.

It was fine. Challes was still there.

I just made a big mistake; which was to feel asleep and gave Challes the chance to attack me; in short I let my guard down. My elemental magic chains wouldn\'t have vanished even if I was sleeping but he sure has gotten the chance to break through them.

However, he hasn\'t and was still sitting in the same position as before.

"Awake huh?" he said.

At first, I was a bit confused but then I noticed that we were the only ones in the wagon.

"You had the chance to escape, why you didn\'t?"

"Hmph. Isn\'t it already clear to you, kid? My mana is not recovering and I have just enough to keep me alive. I can\'t possibly break through your chains with that much."

"You could\'ve asked for help from then?" yeah, I was referring to the adventures that were now missing. If he said that I was keeping him captive without his permission then they sure had helped him.

"I don\'t want to get others involved. And even if I did, you would\'ve disposed of them, didn\'t you? After all, you had the nerve to pretend dead before your sister. You even made the fool out of me and are currently making a fool out of the whole academy. It\'s clear you can do things a normal student can\'t."

"I see. You did good to not ask for help then, as for you are absolutely right about that."

\'There\'s no lying here, he was right. I would\'ve erased them if they posed any trouble for me. Hmmm, maybe then I\'d have to get rid of the driver too; that sure has been a pain.\'

"Where are the others?" I asked.

"They are outside, setting a camp to spend the night."

I got up from my seat and left the wagon, and then I made Challes\'s chain a bit longer and drilled the part I was holding into the ground. I also made sure to triple the thickness of his chains.

Leaving him alone might not be the best idea but, I mean, I don\'t want to walk him around like a dog.

After that, I looked to the other side and saw that under a tree there was a campfire and four people were around it. They were, of course, the driver and the adventures.

I went toward them since I wanted to check the atmosphere and it was now getting a little cold so being near a fire will be nice.

"Hey, it\'s you Ichigo," one of the guys said, Spene was his name I think.

"Sup," I said as I sat next to the campfire.

"We didn\'t disturb you since you looked like you were in a deep sleep."

"I see, thank you."

\'I can\'t believe I left myself vulnerable between all these people! I had to be extra careful from now on.\'

Yeah, I have to. I\'ve avoided my death but that doesn\'t mean I\'m safe and everything\'s fine.

The calamity is still to arrive and when the time for that will come, it will be pure destruction. I can\'t even imagine what will become of this world—I kinda can since a part of the calamity arc was written by me while I edited loli_pop\'s novel but that\'s the scary part.

Me being me, I made the calamity a hell of a disaster for the humans in the novel. And now I will face the same thing.

That\'s karma for you.

"Where is that other guy?" he asked.

"He? Well, I left him in the wagon."

"How cruel! What kind of person you are; shame on you! Don\'t you know how cold it is now? He must be freezing to death!" the girl said, this was the first time I\'d listened to her speak.

And I\'d to say, she was not what she looked like. From the outside, she was your normal quiet girl but her words resembled an entirely different personality.

"Forgive me, I\'ll bring me here," I said and begin to go toward the wagon\'s direction.

"You better do that."

"Ichigo, we are really sorry, let us apologize to her. This is just how she is," Spene pleaded.

"Yeah, ignore her and she will be fine," the other guy—Favian—suggested.

"Hey! What do you mean ignore her, huh?" the girl barked at him.

"See? Just like this, don\'t pay attention to her," Favian implied while not even looking at her.

"No really, I think it was wrong of me. I should bring him here," I went toward the wagon.

There I saw that Challes was still in the place I left him and well, he really was shivering in the cold as he was curled up in a ball.

I got inside the wagon and gazed upon him.

"Looks like they want you there. Rejoice! They took pity on you," I revealed, looking down at him.

He tilted his head up and looked me in the eyes. "But I can\'t risk letting you free."

"It\'s not like I\'ll do anything…..I can\'t, and you know that."

"Yeah, I know. But still, safety measures are important."

"Ahhhhhhh!"

The adventures and the driver who were sitting around the campfire heard a scream.

"What was that?!"

"It came from the wagon!"

As soon as they realized that something was wrong, they along with the driver ran toward the wagon.

The wagon was parked at a distance from the campsite so it took a few minutes for them to reach there and when they did, the scene they saw sent shivers down their spine.

There was blood.

Zero—or Ichigo was lying on the ground and from his condition, it seems like he was scared to death. While beside him was the man who was his slave. He was bleeding badly from his legs and stomach and was somehow keeping himself alive.
