“Then would you recognize me if I say this: Aea (Pamela)”

“...... D-don’t you know..... just how cruel your treatment at that time? ...... How can I forgot you after that, Baka......!”

(Eros: Baka: Idiot, stupid, dunce, etc. But in this case, a tsundere kind of baka)

When one is not on a clear mind like being scared or when there is a big level difference, [Charm] could affect the target easier. Pamela’s level does not increase much from 6 years ago so the level difference between us is around almost 50 levels.

“...... I understand. All I need to do is to bring back all the sold slaves right? ...... And also, protecting all the caravan passing the mountain main road from other bandits. Is that enough?”

“Aa. In time, my party and the knight brigade would exterminate the other mountain bandits around. When the area is clear from bandits, you can then disband Poison Rose. What you do after that would not be of my concern but...... If Pamela-san gone and do more evil, at that time......”

“N-no! I won’t...... I will definitely not. If I managed to complete the contract I would never make another group again. I won’t ever again so forgive me...... I beg you please…….!”

It seems like getting defeated by baby me in the past gives her some kind of trauma…… But then again well, even if Pamela disbands the group and never creates another, she is still a [Thief]. There is a high probability of her going back to stealing.

“…… Let me add another one. After you complete the contract, I will have you join my party. Becoming an adventurer is not a bad choice for you right?”

“Do you tell me to change my job as a treasure hunter? …… Fuu. I understand. I will listen to your request…… that’s why…...”

“……That’s why?”

When I asked back about what she meant with those words, Pamela sends her sight behind me. Following her gaze, I see a set of clothing that seems to be Pamela’s and unlike what I would expect from her rough mannerisms, the clothes are meticulously folded.

“L-let me at least wear my clothes…… I don’t feel comfortable being looked at by you. It reminds me of that time when you just look at me with those deep eyes of yours while touching me all over…… Did you know? That was my first time being touched like that by a man!”

“I-I’m sorry…… When I look back at what I did, it did seems excessive. I will reflect upon that”

I pass Pamela her clothes then turn my back on her. Even when I show this kind of opening, Pamela does not use the chance to attack me but instead meekly wear her clothes.

“…… J-just for you information but…… I don’t know how much you know but I do use honey trap tactics to gather lackeys but I never slept with them at all okay. It was all your fault. Because of you, I become scared of men”

“Well, you once tried to break into my house, attempt an arson, and even tried to kidnap me so I need to make you repent from it”

“Kuh…… I-I get it okay. I only need to reflect on my past action right? …… Haa. Why did I do to get a man like you focus on me”

Her way of calling me suddenly changed from a [brat] into a [man]…… Is it the effect of [Charm]? Just as I thought, no matter what topic we talked about, her affection points just rise up quickly.

If I were to put charm on all the higher-ups of Poison Rose after this, the group might become harmless for the most part. I asked Monica-san and the others to act as a diversion but it seems to be unnecessary now.

◇◆◇

We succeeded in ‘subjugating’ the Poison Rose bandit group. We then report back to the adventurer guild about their job change into the one who will protect the caravan passing by their area instead. When we report about that, the guild side, of course, does not believe us at first. But after I show them the jeweled piercing that Pamela wore, and the memorandum that is signed by Pamela and the higher up of the group, the face of the guild side seems even more doubtful. Of course, in the reverse meaning from the first one.

Even when I feel that Poison Rose won’t break their promise to me, I still want to make sure Ash’s safety so I decided to join his caravan group as bodyguard to help escort them to Genev. I also have another business in the capital. I want to report to Filianess-san and her knight brigade about subjugating the mountain bandit groups around the area besides Poison rose.

“I never thought that it would become such a large group……”
