Chapter 434 - "Tiny Change"
The moment Ainsley stepped on the safety choker forcefully, Axelle felt as if there's an arrow stabbing his chest.
"M-master…" the elf trembled. He subconsciously tried to reach out for the safety choker, yet Ainsley stopped him.
The baby pushed the elf's chest away and crossed her arms in front of her chest.
"Axwel. You're my pweople. Not a slave! Whatever you make for the family's business is wolthy! Many pweople will buy ith! You're wolthy to make such pwotions!"
Ainsley looked up at Axelle and tried to convince him.
"Don't think twat you're just a dilty slave...owkay?"
In fact, Ainsley had planned to give 30% of the potion's revenue to Axelle as his income.
Even when the family already provided his daily needs, Ainsley still thought of giving the elf some money.
Her mafia members would also get pocket money each month, depending on their monthly performance.
Thus, there's no way Ainsley would overwork them and treat them as her chess pieces.
The mafia members are also humans.
Even though they have joined the family and will have to dedicate their lives, the boss should still give them freedom and pocket money for their family.
Not a lot of mafia families thought like Ainsley.
Jake and Evan were only a handful who adopted the same mindset as Ainsley's, and that's why their subordinates were so loyal even for generations.
Those two families had adopted Ainsley's mindset way before the current generation. It's been a tradition from the first generation up to this generation.
Whereas Ainsley had just implemented the system in her generation.
'My family won't lack money in the future. Not giving the members some pocket money for them to give to their families is inhumane.'
After all, not all mafia members were orphans like Elliana or the five buds. Many had family back home and came all the way to join the mafia society to earn for their family.
However, most mafia families barely gave their members anything other than resources. Thus, the number of orphans joining the mafia society was higher than those with families.
"Anyway, you're a free man, Axwel. You can do anytwing in twis pwace." Ainsley patted Axelle's head before turning around to leave.
She couldn't wait to leave the room because Axelle already looked like he's about to cry, but he held it back because she's there.
"Work hald, Axwel. From now on, this place is youl famiwi!"
After saying that, Ainsley left the room and closed the door without looking back.
Ah, she didn't forget to bring the safety choker with her so that Axelle wouldn't try to put it on him.
That guy is so soft-hearted that he will definitely try to place the choker on his own neck.
Indeed, after Ainsley left, Axelle instantly fell on his knees.
BRUGH!
The smurf elf touched the floor where the safety collar fell, and he frantically wiped the floor.
'Ah, ah, t-the collar...master took the collar...what to do…'
Tears dripped down the uncle's cheeks as he tried to find the collar even when he knew it was definitely not in the room anymore.
"T-the collar…" Axelle slowly stood up and touched his neck.
There's still a purplish collar trace on his blue skin, a sign that he had been wearing that safety collar for years.
Yes, this wasn't the first time he got the safety collar. Even when he was on the elven continent, he also wore it…
Because he's dangerous.
He could become a demon anytime due to his royal demon bloodline…
And he could hurt others…
Axelle remembered that he once accidentally triggered his demonic bloodline, and he went on massacring his own brethren…
Just remembering it brought a sharp pain to Axelle's head. The elf touched his head and groaned.
"M-master...why did you take my collar…"
Axelle felt complicated inside. He felt insecure, scared, but...but also...happy and relieved? Why is that?
'Is it because...master is the first person to take off my collar...and say that I'm one of her people?'
All this time, no one had acknowledged him as their family. At least, not in front of him.
No one dared to do so.
They could only help him in the dark, and he's already so grateful that some people still cared for him.
But this little master...despite knowing his chaotic bloodline and the danger he could bring...she still openly acknowledged him as her people…
She said it right in front of him.
Axelle could feel tears dripping down his cheeks again. The bear-like uncle immediately buried his eyes to his arm as he sobbed.
'Master...I am still not worthy of your grace. B-but I'll try not to disappoint you!'
It's hard to change one's mindset when they already had it with them for years...but at least, there's a tiny change inside Axelle's heart.
It's the first time he wanted to do something for someone so badly like this.
Not knowing that her little action just changed someone's whole life, Ainsley went back to her bedroom to rest. She did her work just like usual and slept before midnight.
The next morning, still in her pink uniform that she usually wore since she had tons of them, Ainsley went to visit her dimensional bracelet.
[Zev. You said that we can bring living beings like beasts, monsters, and plants to the dimensional bracelet, right?]
[Yeah. Why?]
[Well, I want to plant the crystalline plant that you gave me. Can I?]
[Of course you can, ] Zev answered shortly while Ainsley walked along the vast prairie, heading toward the group of raptors circling a certain pegasus.
However, when Ainsley finally saw the raptors, she couldn't help but giggle.
Oh, my, look at that.
The raptors...what are they doing to Vallan?
