Isabelle: "But it's not easy. How can we reclaim our inheritance rights when we are only three, while my uncle has an army and nobles on his side, and a lot of support? It's impossible. We can't reclaim the title."
Mohammed replied to her and said: "Don't worry. I know things aren't that easy, but we must try. I also need money. I only have ten gold coins."
Isabelle asked him and said: "Where did you come from? You don't seem to be from this kingdom. Even your way of speaking is a bit different?"
Mohammed replied to her and said: "Yes, I'm not from this kingdom. I'll be leaving soon when I gain some money and power."
Isabelle was surprised!! And she said: "How can you speak our kingdom's language so easily? Even if you were using translation magic, you wouldn't be able to translate our language this well. And not just that—you're strong. From which kingdom did you come?"
Mohammed was also surprised. He remembered what his father said when he was about to enter the gate. He told him to come closer and gave him the translation skill and said: "With this skill, you can speak with anyone no matter their language—even animals." Mohammed thought it was a skill everyone had, but when he saw Isabelle's reaction, he realized that his father's skill was very powerful.
Mohammed replied to Isabelle and said: "I just use a translation skill to understand your words. It also lets me speak your language, and I can even understand animals. I don't think it's a big skill—everyone has it, right?"
Fern and Isabelle were shocked by Mohammed's words. He had a legendary S-rank skill and he said everyone has it? Everyone wanted to get it, but no one ever did. Isabelle replied in shock: "Are you sure about what you said? You can even understand animals?"
Mohammed didn't understand why Isabelle and Fern were shocked. He replied to Isabelle and said: "Yes, I can understand their language, and I can also speak it."
Isabelle replied to him and said: "That's truly an S-rank skill." Then she said: "Don't you ever tell anyone that you have it. It's a legendary skill that everyone is looking for. If anyone knew about your skill, all the warriors in the world would come after you."
Here, Mohammed felt a great danger and was thankful for his luck that he didn't mention his skill in front of powerful people. He replied and said: "Thank you, Isabelle. Thanks to you, I avoided a big problem."
Isabelle, while talking to herself, said: "Where did this person come from? He even has a great silver sword and an S-rank skill. Even when he heard that I'm a duke's daughter, he didn't care much. He's very strange."
Mohammed: "Alright, enough talking. We've reached a small village." After some time, Mohammed and the siblings arrived at the village.
Mohammed and the siblings got off the carriage. Mohammed went to the traders and said to them: "If you tell anyone what happened, I will come and find you and cut off your heads. Do you understand me?"
The traders replied in extreme fear: "Alright, we'll do that. Just let us go in peace."
Mohammed replied to them and said: "Oh, I remembered—if someone asks you about the siblings, tell them that you were attacked by monsters and they killed them in the forest."
The traders replied: "Alright, we'll do whatever you order."
And so the traders went on their way, and so did Mohammed and the siblings. After a few moments, Mohammed said: "Where will we sleep tonight? Nightfall is near. We must find a nearby inn to sleep in." The siblings replied: "But we don't have any money."
Mohammed replied to them and said: "I am your master. Of course, I will take care of you. From now on, you will do everything I command you to. Do you understand me?"
The siblings replied: "Yes, we will do whatever you command."
Mohammed replied to them and said: "If you think I'm kind, then you are mistaken. I'm not kind. I help those who benefit me. Do you understand me?"
The siblings replied and said: "Your words comfort us because at least you are honest. We don't care if you're good or evil. We thank you for saving our lives, and we are at your service for anything."
Mohammed replied and said: "Good. I love smart people because they understand quickly and keep things simple. I will protect you from now on. I will take care of everything—you just do what I say."
The siblings replied: "Alright, as you order."
Mohammed said: "Let's go look for an inn in this small village." The three went searching for an inn in the town. Isabelle and Fern started searching and asked people about the location of the inn. After an hour of searching, they found an inn, so the three went to it.
The three entered the inn. The innkeeper greeted them and said: "What do you want—food or a room?"
Mohammed replied to him and said: "Both."
The innkeeper replied and said: "Alright, sit in the dining area." The three went and sat at a table to eat. After a few moments, the waiter came and asked what they wanted to eat.
Mohammed replied to him and said: "Give me your best dishes." The waiter went to inform the chef.
Isabelle replied and said: "Why are you bothering yourself by buying the best food? Also, you made us sit with you even though we're your slaves?"
Mohammed got angry when he heard the word "your slaves." He replied to her and said: "You are not my slaves, and I don't need slaves. I bought the best food to welcome you." Then he replied to Isabelle and said: "Don't you ever say the word 'slaves' again."
Isabelle replied to him: "If we're not your slaves, then who are we to you?"
He replied to her and said: "You are my employees, and I will assign you to take care of the duchy when we reclaim it and I leave this kingdom."
