I'm wearing a harness because I'm afraid of the pain.

"Huh? Is this shoe equipment?" Maple was feeling a bit down about the rabbit's death, but she soon noticed that a pair of shoes had appeared where the rabbit had vanished. However, after she picked up the shoes, an option popped up above them, allowing her to specialize the equipment into a defense-oriented item. Maple also discovered that her great shield had a similar option. "Specialize, specialize everything!" Out of curiosity, Maple specialized both items. Immediately, the equipment before her was enveloped in a white light. When the light faded, the items had transformed into two completely different forms. The great shield had now become a brown leather glove, adorned with some straps. However, Maple was puzzled to find that it seemed to be a single glove, and its design was quite peculiar. As for what the shoes had transformed into, she recognized it. The shoes had become a pair of stainless steel shackles, connected by a chain about twenty centimeters long. "Defense Single Glove and Defense Foot Cuffs." Maple saw the names of the equipment, both bearing the word "Defense." The Defense Foot Cuffs had attributes that were double all the attributes previously added by the shoes, but they solely increased defense. The shoes had primarily increased agility, but now they only increased defense. Furthermore, specialized equipment would have all its added attributes doubled. For example, if an item added multiple attributes like attack, defense, and HP. Then, a defense-specialized item would sum up all the values of the added attributes and double them, adding them to defense. Defense-specialized equipment could only add the defense attribute. Of course, if the equipment were traded to someone else, it would revert to its original appearance. These defense-specialized items could only be used by Maple herself. "The specialized equipment are all restraints, but I recognize the foot cuffs. What is this single glove?" Maple was no stranger to foot cuffs; their appearance was immediately recognizable. However, this single glove was something she had never seen before. She carefully examined its attributes. She discovered that in addition to defense, the single glove also came with a special skill called Energy Shield. Curiosity piqued, Maple directly chose to equip it. The moment she equipped it, she felt an immense force pull her hands behind her back, followed by a strong sense of restraint. She realized that her hands were now bound behind her by the single glove, and the straps were also secured to her body. Maple tried to struggle, but found her hands completely unable to break free. The straps, along with the glove, had firmly secured her hands behind her. "No wonder there's an Energy Shield skill. It's because your hands are restrained behind your back. But the way this item is used is rather strange." Maple had never encountered a restraint like this single glove and simply found it peculiar. Since the priestess had previously mentioned the unique nature of specialized equipment, her innocent mind didn't overthink it. She just felt that while it was a bit strange and uncomfortable, it was probably normal. The Energy Shield skill existed to compensate for the inability to block attacks when one's hands were restrained behind their back by the single glove. Now, the shield provided all-around, no-dead-angle protection. However, since the current single glove was specialized from a beginner's great shield, its defense value wasn't high. Against stronger monsters, the shield would be quickly breached. The Energy Shield took two hours to recharge. If the shield was broken, the restraint would remain, but the Energy Shield would need to wait two hours before it could be used again. "Right, there are the foot cuffs too. I should equip these as well. Anyway, my current speed won't be affected by these." After adjusting to the feeling of restraint from the single glove, Maple equipped the foot cuffs. Her speed was already very slow. Even with the twenty-centimeter chain connecting the shackles, it wouldn't affect her, as her speed was already turtle-like. Once equipped, Maple continued deeper into the forest. However, the scene was slightly peculiar. A beautiful girl, with her hands bound by a single glove and wearing steel shackles on her feet, was slowly walking deeper into the forest. But Maple was completely unfazed. Even if she were in town, she wouldn't feel embarrassed. She had accepted the priestess's perspective from the beginning, so she felt her current attire was perfectly normal.

"Should I try biting it to attack? But no matter how I look at it, it doesn't seem possible... Oh, right, I can try specializing this equipment." Maple tried to attack by holding the dagger in her mouth, but she couldn't get a good grip, and the dagger would easily slip out with any slight movement. However, Maple soon remembered her specialization skill and directly chose to specialize the dagger. Soon, with a flash of light, the dagger disappeared, replaced by a red sphere with several small holes. Two straps were attached to the sides of the sphere, and a small metal lock was at the back. "What is this thing?" Seeing the dagger transform into a strange object, Maple immediately checked the equipment's information. "So it's called an attack gag. Let's see, it can increase defense by 12 points in total, which is amazing, and it even has a special attack skill!" Maple discovered that the equipment also came with an attack skill. The attack skill was simple: wear the gag in your mouth, and saliva will continuously accumulate within it. Once a certain amount of saliva is collected, it can be converted into a magic spike attack. "So it's for stuffing in the mouth, no wonder it's called a gag. Then I'll try equipping it. But why doesn't it consume MP and instead requires saliva to accumulate? I don't understand!" Maple chose to equip the gag, and immediately felt her mouth being forced open, biting down on something hard. She brought up her status image to see what she looked like. The status image could display her appearance after equipping items. At that moment, Maple's hands were restrained behind her back by gauntlets, her feet were shackled, and her mouth was clamped around the red sphere. The two straps wrapped around her cheeks and tied at the back of her head, secured by a small lock. "Mmmph... (This is so strange. Why use such a small lock on equipment that can be easily removed?)" Maple was puzzled. She also realized that her attempts to speak had turned into muffled groans. This was understandable, as she had a gag in her mouth. Normally, a simple gag would still allow for some muffled speech, but in this game, the gag equipment filtered her voice directly, turning it into "mmph" sounds. However, Maple soon discovered that her intended words appeared as pop-up windows in front of her. "Mmmph... (This feature is amazing! I thought I'd have to remove the gag to talk to people, but with this, I don't even need to take it out to communicate.)" Maple was very pleased with this function, as the gag needed to accumulate her saliva to convert into attacks. There was no accumulation limit for the gag, only a cooldown for activating the attack. Maple's personality naturally led her to accumulate as much as possible. With this new feature, she wouldn't have to remove the gag even when talking to others, allowing her to fully utilize her time accumulating saliva.

The gag was different from the previous ones. The previous ones collected saliva for attacks, and this one had the same ability, but its efficiency increased with its level. Moreover, the gag had an active skill called "Frenzy." After using Frenzy, the gag's attack speed would increase tenfold, and there would be no cost. This meant it could be used even without accumulating saliva. However, when Frenzy was activated, the thing inside the gag would churn wildly, and it would continuously spray some liquid into the mouth. This liquid had no effect. After glancing at the gag's description, Maple's gaze shifted to the last piece of equipment, which had transformed from armor. Externally, it didn't seem special. Just as Maple was about to equip it, a pop-up window suddenly appeared. "(Special Set Bonus: Once equipped, it will be automatically bound. It can only be temporarily removed with a special skill or equipment status replacement. Otherwise, the bound user cannot voluntarily unequip it!)" Maple looked at the information that popped up. In simple terms, once she equipped this armor, the entire set would be completely bound to Maple. In the future, unless she had a special skill or other equipment to replace it, she wouldn't be able to change this set of equipment. Moreover, this replacement would only last for the duration of the skill or equipped item. Once she took off those items, this set would revert to its bound state. "(Permanent, and I can't even remove it myself. It sounds pretty good!)" Maple's eyes lit up. Since it wasn't reality, she wished she could be tightly bound. She really enjoyed this feeling and had grown accustomed to it. That's why she tried self-restraint after leaving the game. In the game, she had no intention of breaking free from her restraints, so whether the equipment was permanently binding had no impact on her. With that thought, Maple decisively chose to equip it. As soon as she equipped it, she felt a squeezing sensation around her waist. Upon closer inspection, a part of the armor had transformed into a corset, cinching Maple's waist tightly. The remaining parts included a collar around her neck, with three chains. Two of them were wrapped around her nipple rings, and the last one dangled in front of her chest. Her lower body was encased in a purple-black leather skirt that perfectly covered her from her waist to her knees. Concealing the belt, Maple discovered that the leather skirt also completely restricted her legs. Even though she was already unable to move due to the belt's restraint, the appearance of the leather skirt made her other skin feel the tightness once again. Finally, there was a pair of special high heels. The heels were ten centimeters high, a height that made Maple, who had never worn high heels before, stumble a bit as she moved. However, because her speed was slow, she could barely maintain control. At the ankle of the shoes, there was a chain, approximately twenty centimeters long in the middle. Moreover, the chain was constantly tightening. This chain would only maintain a length of twenty centimeters when she was constantly moving. If she stopped for more than three seconds, the chain would tighten again, and within a minute, it would cause Maple's feet to press tightly together. Once her feet were completely pressed together, she would be unable to release the chain for an hour.

As Maple pondered where to find new members, she suddenly heard a voice. "You can't be serious, sis. I think everyone else is pretty much the same, it's just that we can't stand up!" Another voice chimed in. By the time Maple looked over, she saw two incredibly cute girls with

After some discussion, the two decided that Yui, the younger sister, would be the pet for the first time, with Mai, the older sister, as the owner. They would switch roles next time. Following this, the nanny and Mai proceeded to restrain Yui. The restraint suit was designed to conceal private areas, so neither of them needed to wear clothes. With only women present, they both disrobed. The dog-binding set was quite standard, involving the folding of the hands and legs. However, this set was made of leather and was white. After the restraint, protective pads were placed on the knees and elbows, ensuring that crawling on the ground wouldn't be too painful. The remaining straps offered minimal coverage of Yui's private parts, obscuring the full view while still revealing a portion, creating a strong sense of allure. Yui's mouth was fitted with a gag, which included an internal piece. This ensured Yui couldn't speak, as a simple gag alone wouldn't prevent someone from talking. Finally, there was a chain, but it wasn't attached to the collar. Instead, it was positioned lower down. The front end of the chain was a plug resembling an inflatable gag, containing an internal object. According to the instructions, this object served as the link between the owner and the pet. The chain was in the middle, with inflatable plug-like devices at both ends. These contained small toys. When activated, they would vibrate intensely at both ends. As for its usage, it was naturally meant to be inserted into the nether regions of both the pet and the owner, and then inflated. Once inflated, it wouldn't detach unless the gas was released. This arrangement ensured that the two would be connected. It was akin to the owner holding the pet's leash when going out. Regarding the owner's attire, after completing Yui's pet restraint, the nanny also assisted Mai with her own restraint. Mai's restraint suit was designed for standing, as she was playing the role of the owner. The owner's hands were restrained in front of her, secured by a pair of exquisitely crafted gloves. The gloves were sewn together. Once the gloves were on and the straps tightened, it gave the impression of a lady resting her hands demurely in front of her. Because the gloves were sewn, the wearer naturally couldn't separate her hands. Her clothing was also made of leather. The upper body exposed a sliver of her abdomen, with a minimal covering for her breasts. The lower body consisted of a leather skirt, but it was designed like a fishtail, allowing Mai to stand but restricting her stride to very small steps, almost a shuffle. There was an opening in the center of the leather skirt, designed to secure the chain connecting the owner and pet. The chain would pass through this opening for fixation. The mouth area appeared to be a veil, but this veil was no simple accessory. The other end of the veil was also an inflatable gag that was bitten and then inflated. This ensured the veil couldn't be removed, and Mai, consequently, lost her ability to speak. Her eyes were covered with a piece of gauze. This gauze was not a mechanism but simply a blindfold, its purpose being to blur the wearer's vision.
