relations of preparation, therefore, the contract was then born. 因为魔法师在施展魔法的时候,大多数的情况下都是需要咏唱,需要时间来进行准备的关系,于是,契约便诞生了。 Initial time, the goal that the contract is born is to let Magicians can gather

比如奴隶,这种失去了人权的存在,一般都会被奴隶商人请魔法师来结下奴役契约,一旦契约成功,这个奴隶便必须得无条件的听从主人的命令,否则惩罚机制将会触发,轻者受到折磨,重则丧失性命。 original owner's grandfather is a slave of countryside rich merchant, always does as one is told to its Master, therefore under discovering the original owner inborn Magic Power extremely powerful condition, wants not to think, prepares to give to own Master original owner. 原主的爷爷便是一名乡下富商的奴隶,对其主人唯命是从,因而在发现原主天生魔力极其强大的状况下,想都不想,准备将原主献给自己的主人。 original owner escaped luckily, otherwise, once by the countryside rich merchant of that no experience is known his innate skill, rich merchant absolutely will uses him resourcefully, even gives him also to have Slavery Contract, receives it for the slave, always can not turning over/stands up. 幸好原主逃了出来,不然,一旦被那种没什么见识的乡下富商知道他的天赋,富商一定会想方设法的利用他,甚至给他也结下奴役契约,将其收为奴隶,永世不得翻身。 With does not have compared with Slavery Contract of human rights like this, Attendant Contract without doubt is much more equal. 与这样毫无人权的奴役契约相比,侍从契约无疑平等得多。 When a Magician needs bodyguard, when needs attendant to protect itself, they to the opposite party will often propose that concludes the request of Attendant Contract. 当一个魔法师需要一名护卫,需要一名侍从来保护自己时,他们往往都会向对方提出缔结侍从契约的要求。 The concluding condition of this type of contract not like Slavery Contract like that overbearing, and did not stress the human rights, what

full power, will otherwise trigger the penalty of contract. 反之,只要魔法师尽心尽力的完成了侍从的愿望,那契约便会彻底生效,该侍从必须根据契约,用尽全力保护主人,不然就会触发契约的惩罚。 Taking this into consideration, Attendant Contract needs to gather bodyguard
