"Hey, why don't you just join Belladett?"
Yvalin tiptoed and squatted on the statue of Meiwa the Holy Knight, as if showing off her outstanding sense of balance, "Even if you leave Mongfera, where do you think you could escape to? The latest 'Family Rankings' from the Gospel has you offending nine of them; the royal family is issuing an imperial warrant for you, the Red Hats are waiting to use you for points; your contract with Hanna is definitely an unfair Slave contract—she's the type that takes an inch and won't give back a foot... You can either end up as dog meat or continue being a dog, so why not be Belladett's dog? Our benefits are so good!"
Ash was cleaning the dust-prone crevices of the statue and impatiently swatted away her hanging skirt, "But you have to work overtime!"
