Manzo repeated the Oath of Sakura as Lord Za said it. ” I, Manzo, do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Slug Population of this world against all enemies, foreign and domestic. I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion. I will faithfully discharge the duties of this position on which I am about to enter should I ever turn my back on them. So help me, Lord Za Kuroi and Sakura.“
It felt a little strange giving his oath to a different power, but he did not think they conflicted with his allegiances to the village. If the worst happen he would work to be to the bridge between his two allegiances. Though that he was sure was never going to happen.
He turned back to look at Sluggy seeing the look on his face he knew he was making the right choice. These were his friends and he would do anything to protect them.
From the look they were giving him this was not something that happened very often. It was a true honor for Manzo and he could feel the weight of it. It was reassuring that someone as great and powerful as Lord Za Kuroi would come personally to administer such an oath to him.
”Thank you for putting your trust and faith in me, Lord Za Kuroi, I will not let you down. “
