Why become Slaves?

My retort made them docile as they lowered their whip-holding hands.

"So… Care to explain what's bothering you two?"

I indicated them to sit on the bed as I stood up, fully immersing myself in interrogation mode with me as the interrogator and the two girls as the being the interrogees.

Anais held Alice's hand between hers, and my sister, who had turned meek, suddenly raised her head with an expression of resolve plastered over her face.

"Lucas, you have previously said that we wouldn't interfere much with the system of slavery on this planet. The same was the case with the slaves in the Shelman family. Right?"

"Uh-huh."

I nodded, which made Alice's eyes falter a little. But she gritted her teeth and continued.

"But I want to help them. I want to uproot the slavery system as soon as possible and make those weak and pitiful people break their shackles and live a good life without the oppression from their masters."
