That can't be how the slave contract works. It'd be insane if the dude now owns more money to the girl than what was the girl's oirginal slave debt. It makes no sense whatsoever. For a moment, before this chapter, I actually thought this system was somewhat smart, but now it looks idiotic. For it to be practical, considering a slave can be a big investment, there should be an upper limit to how much completing a single task will reward the slave, no matter how grateful the owner is. Otherwise it will easily end up like in this chapter.

Also, if the owners need to be careful of such a thing (an owner not as naive as the MC), how can they even use the slave for anything? It's also quite weird that some sadistic bastard who never feels any gratitude could keep the slave forever, whereas a more good-natured guy (still scumbaggish enough to buy slaves, though) will lose the slave in a day, and even end up in bloody debt himself! That negative slave debt is another thing that couldn't possibly happen logically. Once the amount of fulfilled, that's it.

I don't think the author quite thought this through.

I agree, this whole system just makes no sense.
