“All that’s left is to force the King into slavery under Kaisar-sama, and all will be well!”
I have no idea what in the world is going on.
And no matter how far back I looked in my memory, I don’t recall ever giving an order like “Go turn the Kingdom into a puppet nation,” and not only did I not give such an order, but I didn’t even give any order to the slaves in the first place.
I wondered why they were talking about turning the Kingdom into a puppet nation when I saw the king being presented before me.
And not wanting to miss this historic moment when I enslaved the king of a neighbouring country, all the slaves gathered in my parents’ house yard, where I was.
This is not an atmosphere in which one can simply say no to the king of a neighbouring country, “No, it’s not right to corrupt the king of a neighbouring country into slavery, right?”
Was this perhaps set up by the slaves?
I couldn’t help but start wondering.
I can’t help but wonder.
Have I done something to offend the slaves?
“Oh, please! Please make me a slave quickly! Please! I don’t want to go back to those days!”
While I was thinking about this and worrying about it, he crawled on the ground at my feet, in a position like getting down on his knees, and begged me to make him my slave.
His appearance shows no sign of the dignity of a king, and he seems to be just a sad, fat old man you might find anywhere.
I hope the slaves will consider how I feel when such a stranger, a small fat man I do not know, begs to be my slave.
“By the way, what would happen if I didn’t enslave this king?”
“He will get crushed.”
And it was Sarah, the self-proclaimed first slave, who answered without a pause.
Huh? What’s that? I’m scared. I guess crushing means giving away their life.
As expected, it was because of my slaves’ rampage, so I opened my mouth to stop it.
“And by the way, when you say ‘crush’…”
“Of course, we’ll crush his crotch without mercy. It does not kill him easily. Instead, it will destroy a man’s dignity.”
And he turned pale, ‘No, I didn’t hear about that! Don’t let them crush me!’
Seeing the king of the neighbouring country staring at me with that expression, I made up my mind as a man to make him into a slave.

Today is my first day off in a long time.
Recently, I’ve been so busy with the people involved in illegal slavery and underground organizations that I haven’t had any proper time off, so I’m taking a long vacation, including compensatory time off.
I really want to work as much as I can for my master, Kaisar-sama, but if he says that this long vacation is an order from him, I have no choice but to obey it.
That’s why I decided to return to my hometown for the first time after falling into slavery.
