Chapter 77 – Disappearance

Fortunately, he succeeded in rescuing Cecilia and Ruril.

[I’m glad I saved it. If I hadn’t found it, I would have been in big trouble.]

It really would have been.

If I hadn’t noticed the strangeness and hadn’t told them to look for it, they would never have seen each other.

[Speak straight, so. I’m jealous of the two, so I asked what it would be like for me to find it, so I found it.]

‘Let’s be quiet.’

Even if you know that, you shouldn’t mention it.

By the way…

‘It was completely destroyed.’

The underside was literally a piece of shit.

Anyway, the guys who kidnapped people here and sold them as slaves didn’t even deserve to be alive, so they were cutting them off one by one.

He’s a really nice warrior when he’s with him on a normal day, but I really liked him because he didn’t feel like a hogu in this part.

Yes, there is no reason to keep him alive, and if he is kept alive, there may be repercussions.

From that point of view, it’s really good.

“Whoa… “

The warrior who wiped out all the slave traders before he knew it jumped onto the roof right where I was.

Why are you suddenly here…

“Let’s go down.”

Ah.

While I was riding, the warrior who hugged me jumped down as it was.

I can use magic to go down, but I don’t know why I jumped by hugging him…

[As good as it is.]

‘Quiet.’

Lately, it seems that Rumia has been teasing me a lot.

To say it was recent, it wasn’t long before I met Rumia.

– Why are you here?

The hero who saw my drawing board replied to look around.

Accordingly, he looked around and saw numerous women held as slaves.

Some women were caught by them and showed traces of being subjected to unspeakable acts. Well, with so many people, I can’t take them one by one, and I have no choice but to report them.

“Because I will report to the guards and come back… I will ask people.”

There were people who were caught naked, so it was an embarrassing situation for the warrior to step forward.

Can’t help it

I nodded.

The warrior made a satisfied expression on my answer, and left the seat without saying a favor.

“Rumia… ? You came to save me too… “

Cecilia, who was giving a blessing to the fainting Ruril, looked back at me.

– Are you hurt anywhere?”

“Huh… Thank you for your concern.”

Cecilia said that and smiled at her.

However, that smile looked mentally bad enough to immediately recognize that it was an incomplete smile that could not erase the feeling of anxiety somewhere.

– How about taking a break? You seem to be having a hard time too…

“No… I have to step out.”

“… “

Is it.

It was.

There were a lot of people here who couldn’t be seen as normal even with empty words.

In particular, unlike Cecilia, Ruril seemed to be in a very bad condition, perhaps because she had been beaten quite a bit.

Thanks to Cecilia’s blessing, she had no visible trauma, but it must have been very difficult.

– I’m sorry I couldn’t find you sooner.

“No… Did you find it Because there is no way the hero can know where I am.”

– Huh.

[Exactly, but me.]

Was this originally Rumia’s personality?

As she gazed at Rumia, who proudly replied, with a pitiful look inside her, Cecilia hesitated with her restless expression.

Why is he like this

– What’s going on?

“Huh? Oh no… Let’s quickly sort out the people here… “

What.

Why is he really like this

I don’t know what it is, but since she says it’s not her, there’s no need to worry.

It was a bit difficult to endure that there were corpses at every corner of the underground passage, but there were things I had seen of monster corpses so far, so the adverse reaction didn’t come that badly.

Still, there was no change in the feeling that the inside would turn upside down, so I had to close my eyes when I saw the corpse and pass by.

The feeling of stepping on the blood under her feet was something I’d never forget.

It definitely felt like stepping on a puddle, but when I opened my eyes, I realized that the color was red, so I didn’t feel very good.

How long did she have to go around the underground base to find people,

There were some remaining underground remnants, but it was impossible for them to harm me because they were strong wizards even if they looked like this.

Even unlike before, there was no way that would happen in the yard where I was receiving direct support from Chin Mia.

Even Cecilia, who was next to her, had a surprised look on her face, saying that her magic skills had improved considerably compared to before, so she said it all.

“Is this all… ?”

Said Cecilia, looking around her.

They ranged from a few tied-up remnants left underground, to people who had passed out after being caught in each prison, to people who were scheduled to be sold as slaves.

“Thank you for saving me… “

“Really… Thank you… “

Many people were giving us thanks, but there were also people who were angry about why we were saving people who had been badly treated until now.

Of course, even that didn’t last long and I was just sobbing alone.

Anyway, it wasn’t a very good feeling.

‘To be adventurous as a hero… That’s pretty tough.’

[Yeah, that’s right. You will see more scenes like this in the future.]

‘Are you okay?’

[Huh? Don’t you remember Even if he looked like this, he was a veteran adventurer, so of course I saw a lot of scenes like this.]

Turns out, it was like that.

It was different from me.

Now that we’ve looked everywhere we can, we’ll have to leave it to the city’s guards.

While I was waiting with that thought in mind, I opened the basement door and saw people in armor descending inside.

In between, the warriors were also intervened.

“I found the home of the Noe merchants!”

“I never thought I would be hiding in a place like this… There must be a reason I couldn’t find it for a long time.”

Outside, there was even a magic tool that created an illusion that could not be found without using some kind of magic, so finding it was a long way off.

Precisely, if you had thought that you were inside the city and used a moderately strong level of detection magic, you wouldn’t have been able to find anything, but it was said that it happened because no one imagined that it would be in the city.

To put it simply, it was dark under the lamp.

“Thank you very much, warrior!”

Did you reveal that you are also a warrior?

He shook his head, replying that he was just doing what the hero had to do.

Covering myself with the blanket brought by the guards, I watched the people being rescued outside, and I felt mixed emotions.

This world is a game, but… On the other hand, it was a world in which people lived.

Of course, this could well happen.

Yes, in fantasy games like this, there are many cases of being kidnapped and sold as slaves without anyone noticing.

I was curious about him.

– Hey… Captain of the guard.

“Hmm? Oh, are you a wizard? Why do you have to say what you need to say… Ah. Sorry.”

The captain of the guard saw the bandage around my neck and bowed his head, saying he was rude.

– That is… Is slavery legal in this country?

“Yes? As long as it’s legal, it’s okay. In most cases, this only applies when someone has committed a crime. For example, when you borrowed money and didn’t pay it back properly, or when you insulted a noble.”

“… “

“In other words, if you kidnap a well-to-do commoner and forcibly enslave him, it is not recognized as a slave. All those who have been stamped with the slave stamp right now will be sent to the Mage Tower to have their slave stamp removed, so don’t worry.”

I see

Thank god.

Still, the world has not gone to the point of abandoning humanity to such an extent.

I thought it was good enough, but it wasn’t necessarily like that.

I thought that was fortunate.

“Ah, Rumia!”

As I was looking around the dungeon while brooding over my thoughts, the warrior I was talking to over there approached me.

“Let’s go back now. I’ll take Ruril with me.”

What

I couldn’t leave it like that.

I grabbed the sleeve of the hero who was trying to embrace Ruril and stopped him, then I used my magic.

With my magic, Ruril’s body floated into the sky.

– Ruril will be more comfortable this way. Let’s sleep comfortably.

“Huh? Then you will have a hard time… Are you okay?”

“Are you okay.”

Unlike the hero, Ruril was able to do enough because his magic resistance was not high.

The hero put on a strange expression, but after looking into my eyes, he nodded his head.

[You should never hug another woman… La… He is greedy.]

Shut up!
