Chapter 947
“Bernice!” the fake Deek shot a look at the girl I didn’t know.
“Hmph! A female is far more to my liking!” Bernice responded, walking over to the other side. “Besides, you’re an animal. This Deek is far cooler.”
“You… you weren’t even bonded in this world!”
I was just as perplexed as he was. I didn’t even know this girl, but suddenly I could feel her slave bond.
“Um… sorry… and you are?” I asked sheepishly.
The girl suddenly ran up and grabbed my hands. She smiled at me, it was actually a pretty cute smile.
“I’m Bernice, at your service, Master. I’ve been forced to work under that beast of a man. However, I’d much rather work under you…”
“U-under?”
“You shouldn’t drink those potion’s master. They make you weak, and may also make you impotent! It’s much better to stay a woman, don’t you think?”

“Ah… sorry, you don’t recognize me. You might recognize me as Bernard, the hero?” As she said this, she pulled back her hair.
With that, there was a flicker of recognition. Bernard was a girl? This was the woman who was the 1st place champion? All the other girls made noises of surprise as well as they finally realized who the stranger was. I didn’t know her, but she seemed to be holding on to me now. I didn’t know how to react.
“Elaya, you’re going to join this Deek’s side?” Astria asked.
“Elaya?” My eyes jumped to see Elaya in the back next to him.
She had disappeared, only to show up next to him. It was clear to me that the fake Deek must have stolen her! Yet, Elaya was a powerful undead queen. If she wanted to, she should have had the ability to return to my side.
“I am…” Elaya chuckled. “And so will you.”
Astria raised an eyebrow. “I will, will I?”
“Mm… Master and I have already claimed the dungeon.”
“You what?” I cried out.
“Since the moment I was summoned, I thought something like this might happen. Thus, I made sure the dungeon boss Xin closes up. I’ve sealed the entrance to the mansion, and if anyone not bonded to my Deek attempts to enter, they will be seen as an enemy and attacked!”
“Elaya, I could kiss you!” The fake Deek grew excited.
My expression grew ugly. Elaya was a diabolical woman. I had already known this about her. However, when she was on my side, that wasn’t a problem. Now, she was on the enemy’s side!”
“Th-that doesn’t mean I’ll join you!” Astria responded hesitantly.
“You think I’ll allow you to keep receiving miasma if you’re on her side?” Elaya asked.
“Y-you…” Astria looked guiltily in my direction, and then sighed.
Her bond suddenly disappeared, and I could only shake coldly.
“Astria! Get your fairy butt over here!” The fake Deek barked.
“Y-yes, Master!” She flew over quickly rather than float over slowly.
She didn’t have to look slightly like she enjoyed being barked at!

Faeyna’s loyalty to me had always been a bit questionable. When I first made her my slave, she had left to be free.
“I understand.” Faeyna lowered her head. “I’m sorry, Master, but if I’m to continue my species, I’d need a man, not a woman.”
“Huh?” Fake Deek blinked. “No, I meant, I hate cooking. I haven’t had very many delicious things because of that. I need you to cook for me.”
“C-c-c-cook!” Her eyes widened, and the bond disappeared like smoke.
“Hey! Where is your reluctance?” I cried out.
“S-sorry, Master… he needs me!” Faeyna ran into his arms.
She didn’t need to hug him and give him a kiss! Why was her big chest suddenly pissing me off?
“I will be back for the rest of you in time.” Fake Deek declared. “Wait for me!”
“You dare!” Just as I went to attack him, he grabbed all the girls and disappeared, using a teleportation spell.
Like that, half of my girls and ultimately my fighting force was gone.
