Leopold kept walking through the woods as he came closer and closer to his home village. It had been a few days since he had been attacked by that guy with the spiky orange hair. Since that event, Leopold had found that his journey had been almost entirely peaceful. Well, expect for a few minor details...
"Master Lee!" the girl known as Lucy said as she rode on Leopold's back. "Master Lee! I'm hungry! When are we going to get some food?!"
"I will scavenge for food once we reach the village, so be a bit more patient." Leopold pleaded, feeling the strain that the girl was putting on him. He looked over at the other person that was with him and frowned. "And then there's you..."
"Is something wrong, master?" Diablo asked.
"Yes! How is it that you are so emotionless!?" Leopold asked.
Diablo looked at Leopold with his usual blank face. "I do not know what it is you are implying, master. Is something wrong with the way that I conduct myself?"
"YES! JUST LISTEN TO YOUR OWN VOICE FOR FIGE MINUTES!"
To explain some of what was going on here, let's look back at what happened a few days prior. The sword that Leopold had been given by the voice in his head had started to glow a strange red color and then blew up in Leopold's face! He was blown back into a tree and when he looked up there was a man standing where the sword had originally been.
"Unfortunate..." the being breathed. "It would seem that there was some sort of malfunction." He looked at Leopold with a blank face. He looked almost emotionless...
Leopold starred back as he tried to hide the shock that was filling his very soul. "W-Who exactly is this hot guy who appeared before me? He could probably pull all the ladies..." It wasn't every day that guys who looked like handsome butlers just showed up in front of you...
"Master Leopold, are you alright?" he asked.
"M-Master!? DID THIS GUY JUST CALL ME HIS MASTER!??"
Blinking in confusion, Leopold got up from the ground and dusted himself off. He looked at the man and scratched his head. "So... Who exactly are you anyway? And how do you know my name? AND HOW AM I YOUR MASTER!?"
The man looked at Leopold, still acting as if he had no emotions, and nodded. "Of course I can tell you since it seems you have forgotten, Master Leopold. I am the voice inside of your head."
"Y-You are!?" Leopold breathed, shocked. "H-How? Did you get a human form?"
The man looked at himself. "Ahh. It would seem so, Master Leopold. I do not know what had caused this change in my being. Would you like for me to find a way to change back?"
"No..." Leopold answered. "Could you stop sounding so robotic though?"
"I do not know what it is you are meaning by that."
"Really? Just listen to your voice..." Could this... thing... really not hear how much he lacked normal emotion? It was so obvious!
"Maybe it's because he's originally just the voice inside my head..." Leopold thought. "But can I really trust what he's saying? What if he's just an imposter... But then how would he know that I had a voice in my head to begin with?"
"Master." the man suddenly spoke. "I sense another presence similar to mine." He pointed over to the location of the sword Leopold had recently acquired from the man that had attacked him. "From there."
"Another sword?" Leopold remarked. "So is it something like you then? AN EMOTIONLESS FREAK!?"
"Negative. Of the same aura, but not the same identity." he answered Leopold.
