@rockoford Quite likely. "Strongest magical power wins" or something, and of course he's got the bigger one.

Out of topic, but was Champion Scans (aka Project Time) always uploads their chapters here? I thought they bailed out from this site, so I haven’t put this manga on “reading”.
(i know this ain’t their chapter, but putting it here so it gets read)

@Save_your_wifi yes and it's exactly that, that pisses me off (not to that extent but couldn't find a similar expression) if it's not bound by anything why bring out the worse of humanity instead of creating something more interesting, also let's not forget that however soulless or money driven it may be, any work of art (if you call it that) does reflect at least some of its creator's personality/beliefs/ideals ect.
which brings us back to the main question: why is there a lot of slavery involved in a big lot of japanese manga (yes i'm not retarded i know it doesn't involve ALL of japanese works but i betchu if you refreshed the homepage, each time you do you'd find at least one or two mangas involving slavery) my question is more like "from all teh things you could obssess about, why slavery?" the same as how chinese manhwas almost Always revolve around meditation and breathing techniques

Lol, father was like living: food and mother was like dead: toys
Ah, such good parents. So sad they died. Damn
you foo- I mean humans for killing such innocent family.
I feel for the daughter when she was a little kid alone but she is now doing the same thing so should we feel bad?

As I said she did bad even if she was driven toward it because of some circumstances and now she reflects on it it does erase the damage she caused. Punishment is in order atleast. Maybe new forceful recruitment into the squad that way she finds a new purpose in her life and still be close to mc(can tell him stories of his world) while also getting the opportunity to explore beyond the village.

@FireCamp im not justifying anything, its the implication of master and slave relationship is false.
this is a contract between a human and a monster, a familiar`s contract. in a way you can see it as her putting a curse on him. as she is free to take all his magic power to a certain limit. as long as he allows it or is unaware. im not saying that 'because she is a monster she is allowed to be a slave.'' its ''because she is a monster, she can make such contract.'
second is, this contract can be rejected by Mc, if he holds anything against her. it worked because he holds no malic towards her. even after all the shit she put him though.
also in fiction the word slave can be anything realy. in some a Slave is just a contract live in worker. heck there is a manga, that slaves are treated better than noble men.
those slaves just have to keep their master/lady company, fk her and punch people who cant retaliate. then get paid for it.

@ShionVaynex
then again you completely missed the point, of course story wise they wouldn't call it slavery of course "the person that looks like a human and capable of human thinking and emotions but is technically a monster" wouldn't be considered a human but what i'm talking about is what the author who's a person living in the 21st century implies through his story, basically any element relevent to the story that makes it "okeh it's not really slavery" is just an excuse, the essence of the plot itself is flawed; let me spin this another way and maybe you'll get it more:
"it's a contract that gives me complete control over you, I AM within my rights to abuse you to my hearts content BUT i'm a good guy so i guess it's ok ? I CAN work you to death without compensation BUT i won't because i'm a good guy, and your whole existence is within the palm of my hand BUT i won't treat less that a human being NOT because that's the norm BUT because i'm a good guy and good guys treat slaves like people so i guess good guys are allowed to own slaves"
again the "yeah but if he was wicked it wouldn't work" bs doesn't really makes it vibe with me that you can own another person, and by person i mean any life form (or not if we're going to the faaaaaaar future) that is capable of emotions and/or communication and/or thinking and/or imagination or summed up in "has human traits" it doesn't matter what's the sticker you put on it "monster" isn't an excuse since if i was a racist i wouldn't call the people i oppress "humans"
