Chapter 338: Genius researcher and emancipation of slaves

While eating ramen for lunch, I tell my stepsisters about my encounter with Aladdin.

"Is the labyrinth of trials related to the Minotaur that Sei-kun had mentioned?"

"It would be something very similar...with the difference that it's bull-only and Egyptian god-related"

"...Oxes are definitely easier"

Right? The bull's target is the whole world, but it would still be down the scale compared to an Egyptian god.

"Ah! I think you're going to use those items in this labyrinth, aren't you? Anubis and Horus were Egyptian gods, right?"

It's very perceptive for a Riko. I completely agree with that opinion. It's a god connection, no doubt about it.

"What about your points? It's the last day of the event, right?"

"Sei-kun, as I'm sure you're aware, but you cant make much money...I can beat Axolotl with my swimsuit gear or opening special move, but so far no one has beaten Frog Dragon or Baba Yaga"

That would be the case...if I want to beat the Frog Dragon, do you think I can win by throwing in the trump cards of Lily, Ion, Koihi, Nowa and Wako?

Bring it to a state of violence with Koihi and Wako and fight against a state of violence with Lily, Ion and Nowa...I feel like I can win, but it's hard after I win.

"...I'd like to see Nii-sama in battle"

"I refuse. I don't fight fights I can't win"

"Youre in the habit of going all out in your attacks~"

I will not fight even if you say so. In any case, the desert quest smells fishy. Jin's information confirmed that there are other mysterious characters besides the dark summoner we fought before.

It is strange that they are attacking an ordinary caravan, though they are in the slave trade. It's not like the regular caravans are interfering with the slave trade.

In this kind of atmosphere, it is better to save my trump cards. The challenge to the Frog Dragon will come later. He will be in that forest after the event anyway.

When I log into the game, I get an email. It's from Cain-san.

I need to talk to you about the people you protected. I want you to come to the Beastmaster's Guild

It didn't sound like a good idea, but I decided to head there anyway.

"I'm sorry to bother you. Its quick, but I don't think we can break the slave's collar"Follow current novels at novelhall.com)

See. I knew it wasn't a good story! Then Nephi-san says,

"We are summoners. And this is what happens when Grandmaster tries to look good, even though he can't possibly know what the item is"

If you ask me, it is indeed true. I'm too dumb to have noticed that...

"Then you can't disarm it?"

"No, no! That part's okay! I know someone who is really good at this stuff! ...It's a little weird"

She added something!

"That person is in the same realm as Grandmaster. But when I contacted that person, he told me his terms"

I get it now. The terms.

"Its Ix"

"Yes. Personally, I don't think Ix-san and that man should ever meet, but he has a tremendous obsession with things that interest him"

"Specifically, it's more than Aura's obsession for Lily-chan and the others. He is also Aura's least favorite person"

That person topped my ranking of dangerous people in this world.

"...Are you going to be okay?"

"The Beastmaster's Guild will guarantee Ix-san's safety. We will talk to the Alchemy Guild and ask them to make a move"

"Is the man an alchemist?"

"No...he's a researcher. But he is a researcher so out of the ordinary that he cannot be left alone, so the Alchemy Guild and Elixir Lapis are managing him"

Then an old man's face appeared between Nephi-san's legs.

"Did you call me?"

I go to the slaves with Einstein.

"Hohou. This is the slave collar...which one?"

Einstein deploys many small magic circles that I have never seen before. What's that?

"Here. I've unlocked them"

All the slaves' collars come off and fall to the ground.

Eh~...I didn't think it was just for a moment.

"Is it off?"

"I, It's off!"

"I did it!"

"Thank you! Thank you!"

Everyone's happy. I'm glad I was able to keep my promise to Sunasaki. Then comes the info that tells me the quest is clear.

Special quest Free the Slaves of the Caravan has been completed

Good. Quest clear! Then Sunasaki thanked me.

"E, Emm! Thank you so much!"

"No. You can thank Einstein-san"

I'm not the one who unlocked the door, you know. Then the cerian beast who was the other slave speaks.

"But are you sure we're the only ones who were spared?"

"That's..."

"...It's not good"

This is...an additional quest.

"...I guess you're not the only slaves after all"

"Yes...lots of adults and children"

"The Beastmaster's Guild is stuck in the Sandwall Desert, isn't it?"

Nephi-san...why are you looking at me? Why does everyone else look at me too? Is it because I can get into the Sandwall Desert? Cain-san says to me.

"Can you release their people, please? You can consider this an official request from the Beastmaster's Guild"

Request quest Free the slaves captured by the bandits has occured

Request Quest Free the slaves captured by bandits: Difficulty B-

Conditions: No limit to the number of participating players.

Reward: Distributed by the Beastmaster's Guild at a later date.

Free all the subspecies enslaved by the bandits.

Gunu...the stares from the people around me are too much.

"I'll take care of it, but please don't get your hopes up"

"It's enough that you took care of it. I wonder how difficult it will be just to find the enemy's hideout or something"

You knew that and you asked for it.

"Then, let's go...ah, Cain-boy. I'll take half of this collar"

"...You're not going to misuse it or produce it, are you?"

"...You know I don't like to do anything that might offend the gods"

"Well, yeah. Just a warning. This is something the world doesn't need"

Cain-san said a decent thing...if it weren't for the clothes-transparent glasses thing, I would have thought today was decent...too bad.
