57 Chapter 3-12 First Slave......

"You got a second?

After I said that and saw the woman's complexion, I cured and resisted again just in case.

The girl called Jeanne hadn't lifted her guard, but she didn't stop me from doing the magic.

"I don't know who it is, but thank you"

The woman, who was called Aura, remained lying down, but said a word of thanks as she bowed carefully.

"Hey, Jeanne. What the hell happened? I have some vague memories and I don't really remember..."

to Aura's inquiry. Jeanne took the time to sort it out in her head, and eventually,

"After Aura had a fever, the demon attacked me and I fell into this place... and then he (...) died."

"... yes"

That just seemed to make sense.

"Hey, who's that guy?

I stuck with my mouth from the side. Naturally, Jeanne,

"It's none of your business."

I said, so instead, Aura said,

"It's about our Lord."

I said. It was then that I realized that the necks of the two were fitted with a collar of slaves, arguably a sign of slavery.

"We were slaves, and the Lord was a nobleman with the rank of Viscount."

That's when I remembered something I didn't really want to say.

"You know... I hate to say it..."

Look at me, Jeanne.

"I'm telling you, we didn't kill the Lord!

He said,

"No, I don't care about that... you're both slaves, and then... uh, the..."

"Be clear! What is it!

Jeanne sees me stuck in words, and she's rushing to frustration.

"It follows that I currently own both of them..."

I taught. We both didn't seem to expect that word, and it solidified.

"You know, when the Lord of slaves dies in a dungeon or something, the slaves left behind belong to the First Discoverer... that is, they will be treated like loot. Then you two will be my slaves..."

You two don't make it so slight that you don't know if you're hearing my words.

I tried to wave in front of them and they didn't respond, so pan, and when I hit the cedar hand in front of them,

"Why is this happening..."

And Jeanne went in. Aura closes her eyes tightly and then

"I have a favor to ask. Please don't keep us apart. Negotiate to be together even if you sell them off."

And I've bowed my head deeply and begged. All of a sudden, I was confused, and Aura saw it.

"As a matter of fact, Jeanne was originally from a nobleman, and I grew up with her from birth, as her companion"

and started an old story about the two of us. The story said that the two had grown up inexorably, but about five years ago they were involved in a dispute, the house collapsed, the family all died, and the remaining two were sold as slaves and bought by the Viscount.

Fortunately, the Viscount was a man, so he wasn't abused, but he said he was about to be sold off.

We were sneaking up on Seigen along the way, escorting him and diving into the dungeon, but as we got back on track, he was attacked by a powerful demon, and the escort and the Viscount were killed, and they fell into a nearby hole.

That's what Jeanne told me in the second half, but I don't trust the whole story. Anyway, the status says something important.

Name... Jeanne

Age… 14

Race... People

Title... Curse (Virgin), Former Viscount Lady, Slave

Name... Aura

Age… 16

Race... People

Title... Maid Slave

In the title of Jeanne, the curse (Virgin), it is said. I don't know if you're intentionally hiding it, or if you really don't know it, but you can't trust it entirely.

I dare to put that story on hold, and to give Aura a break, I decided to interrupt the conversation and check my surroundings.

First of all, looking for the hole where they fell, they were about 100 meters away from where I came in, and the wall was like a slide from the hole, so they didn't have to suffer major injuries.

The position of the hole is quite high. Fly to try it and see how it goes.

"I've seen something before..."

It was a place that looked familiar and didn't feel like it, but I thought there would be as many similar places because it was within the same dungeon, and stopped thinking.

After that, I looked around, but I couldn't find anything that would attract any particular interest. However, since there were red-brown stones everywhere, I guess there are many rocks around here that contain iron, but now I decided to ignore them because they are not particularly necessary.

And I was able to find one warp zone in this place as well, so I decided to keep the worn sword of the oak poked nearby instead of landmarks.

Back by the two of them, they were discussing something. I didn't seem to notice this one, so I decided to make a footnote and let him know.

The two of you who heard the footsteps were watching this one by stopping the discussion.

"Let's just get out of here"

I urge the two of them to say so, but Aura still seemed unable to stand properly.

So I carried Aura and put my bed and pan in my bag. And just in case, he put Silomar behind me and Solomon over Jeanne.

Slalin goes into my bag and allows me to jump out whenever there is anything unusual.

But such worries seemed worrisome, and I was able to get back to the ground from the warp zone without anything.

Jeanne's first voice out there,

"It's been the first time in a week!

I was surprised that it was. Anyway, I would have kept the half-dead Aura by my side and kept the junction close to a week. Because it was impossible for a wizard in line.

I thought I should report to the guild first, and as I walked for the guild, I approached the guild somewhat noisy, wondering.

"Don't move! You are charged with noble kidnapping!

and two men dressed as knights stopped me, I didn't remember myself, such as kidnapping, so when I tried to ignore them and enter the guild,

"You're telling me not to move!

and tried to wave the spear I had in my hand,

"Air Impact"

I visited the shockwave caused by wind magic. The man who tried to wave the spear was magical, and after flying about 10m behind him, he rolled over and hit the wall ahead and stopped moving.

"I knew you were the killer!

I tried to attack another one,

"Gruwar!"

After eating a body hit by Shiloumal, it was stretched out. Shiloumal waits with his mouth half-opened so he can bite it whenever I tell him to.

The man, unable to lose his mind (...) by the touch of Shiloumal's body, had seen Shiloumal's angry face up close and wet between his crotches.

"Shiloumal, drag him!

Giving instructions to Shiloumal, I asked Jeanne to open the door and enter the guild.

In the guild, several soldiers and knights were occupying a corner of the table to have some discussion, and they didn't seem to have noticed this one yet.

So I threw the man Shiloumal had dragged at the table.

"Hey, what's going on!

The knights, in a panic, immediately found out what I had done.

"Don't move! If it moves, consider it hostile and activate the magic immediately!

I held the knights aloud. But one of the soldiers who was on the spot pulled out his sword, so

"Air Brit, Air Impact"

Two shots of magic in a row. He played the sword with a brit and blew up the soldier with impact.

That's when the knights finally figured out that my words weren't haphazard.

"Are you going to poke at the Marquis of Sammons!

One of the knights shouts,

"Then the Marquis of Sammons will be my enemy!

In retrospect, he slapped the knights for killing. That alone makes the knights limp.

"It's a fight I've been selling from you... don't regret your death"

That's exactly what it looks like. However, once it is actually a battle, there will be as much difference in strength as can be ravaged unilaterally. Unless the knight I threw earlier was the weakest of them all.

But my ravage show never started. Because the Marquis of Sammons, who heard the noise, jumped into the guild.

"Wait, that's it! Both sides, put your swords away!

The knights put their swords in those words, but I wasn't going to listen to the Marquis' orders.

"Marquis, don't tell me you played witch mountain. Aren't bugs too good to leave you unilaterally attacked and put your sword away?

To be honest, I was pretty much on my mind. Anyway, the Marquis Knight has tried to attack me with an Aura (woman) on my back.

In my words the Marquis distorted his face like he bit a bitter bug, staring at the knights. And turn to me,

"I did something I'm sorry for overlapping. My instructions didn't seem to get through."

That said, the Marquis has bowed his head to me... I feel like I've had a lot of opportunities lately for great people to bow their heads.

"Anyway, we'll hear about it later. I have to do something first."

I went to the Alliance counter in the form of leaving the Marquis alone, and I told the receptionist who was there about Jeanne and Aura, and I tried to go through the process.

"I'm sorry, but we can't give you the right to slavery until those two are the Viscount's ex-slaves and prove they didn't kill the Viscount,"

That's what they said, so the first interview was conducted in my presence.

"We were attacked by that demon around the thirtieth or thirty-first floor."

"The damage was caused by three knights following the Viscount as escorts and one adventurer on the road."

"Aura...... I was attacked when she was taking a break at the end of the line because she suddenly fell ill"

and answer Alliance staff questions. And the last thing I answered,

"The demon that attacked me was a very big muckade"

To that answer, the gaze of an official who knew the demon I had recently laid down pierced me.

"Mr. Tenma, do you still have that Mukade body? Let me out if you have it."

That's what they said, so when you take Giganto Desmukade out of the back,

"This is it! It was this demon that attacked us!

Jeanne points to Mukade and screams. And when I stabbed a knife in the abdomen of that mukade and cut it open, I found a metal plate engraved with a noble crest along with what appeared to be clearly part of a person's body from its abdomen.

"Wait a minute...... there was. That's the Viscount of Acer Emeritus crest...... the guild also has a Viscount registration record. You will most likely have been the slaves of the Viscount."

Alliance staff left the room telling us to wait a little longer.

I was worried about Aura's health but so far she seems stable and looks as if she is experiencing mild fatigue.

Even here, Jeanne and Aura seemed to be consulting to make sure I didn't hear them.

It would have passed about five minutes as it was, and it was a man dressed like a priest that the door came in empty.

After a gentle meeting with us,

"Nice to meet you, I am a priest of the Church of Pharma in this city, my name is From Pheno"

I named him. Apparently we're here to vet the Jeannes. In the meantime, I left this place to the priest, and I decided to listen to the Marquis of Sammons.

The Marquis seemed angry at the knights at the table earlier.

"Thank you for waiting, Marquis"

In my words, the Marquis interrupted his anger at the knights, turned to me, and suddenly he bowed his head.

"Lord Tenma, I am truly sorry. My supervision is broken. I ordered Lord Tenma to look for him to help me, but a knight who knew Gary had a crush on him mistakenly brought him here because he was suspicious."

And I've bowed my head again. However, when people suddenly told me that it was a kidnapping, I had no idea what was going on.

"Oh, I'm sorry. As a matter of fact, these letters arrived at the inn where I was staying."

The Marquis noticed that he hadn't told the truth, took one letter out of his nostalgia and gave it to me.

If you open inside and read,

'My son kept it. If you want it back, get the ransom, 10 million G by tomorrow evening. The handover will take place at the fountain site in the central district of Slam Street. However, it is not until we have ascertained the gold that we will release'

Yes, it was written in the letter. What a classic sentence (in Tenma's previous sense of life), I thought, but it would be quite worrying if I tried it as a marquis.

"So help me out, what do you mean?

"I don't want you to get me wrong, but this isn't an order, it's a favor as Gary's father. To the best of my knowledge, the Lord Tenma stands on his arm and is the most trustworthy."

I trust you, because I know the Duke of Sanga. It would be better to work together for the future.

"All of a sudden, disrespectful behavior continues…"

"Okay. We're here to help."

"What, is it true!

It has taken the form of interrupting the Marquis' story, but there will be no particular problem because we cooperate.

"But now that we're unprepared to move, we wait for the night before we start acting"

"I hope so...... what do I do with this one?

I know you asked if the Marquis could help, but to be honest, only Galiver can use it with the Marquis' pawn, and that Galiver is also unsuitable for a back job like this one. So,

"Just pretend you're taking measures. It might be better to spread the word that you're in the middle of swimming me."

He advanced to the Marquis, including the implication that the knights were only in the way.

"... ok. Let's do as I say."

Returning to Jeanne and the others at the end of the discussion, it seemed that the review by the priest had just been completed.

When I walked into the room, the guild staff noticed me.

"Oh, Mr. Tenma. There seems to be nothing particularly suspicious about these two, so with this time, your rights as slaves will be transferred to Mr. Tenma."

Ever since I said that, Alliance officials have given me certificates.

I decided to keep the certificate in my bag and go back to my room for now.

I tried talking to Jeanne and the others on the road, but, yeah, well, all I got was a raw response like that.

Worst of all, I met Amy and the Jins in front of the room.

"Whoa, Tenma, that's unusual. I can't believe you brought a woman!

"Is that it? Mr. Tenma. Those two are slaves...... no way, you've been buying them!

Reena, who responded to Jin's words, found a collar that was fitted in the neck of the two.

"Doctor..."

Amy looks at this one with a somewhat sad face. Jin said that Tenma was also a man, but Leena and the others began to distance themselves from Jin.

So don't hesitate,

"... Stan"

"Abe......"

I've been bewitching Jin...... lately, is Jin really the top adventurer in Seigen? I'm starting to think...

"In the meantime, I'll explain it without misunderstanding..."

and I briefly explained how it had been so far. That seems to have convinced everyone at last.

But what happened to Amy's gaze earlier? I'm not doing anything wrong, but I kind of feel like my sister despised me.

"So what do you do with the room?

If I don't think hard about Amy's questions and then answer them, I'll be exposed to that gaze again.

"... that's what we're going to discuss..."

This would be the answer without difficulty. Amy didn't seem particularly concerned either.

"Well, don't be rude here because there's so much to come"

Yes, I told Amy and the others, and I took Jeanne and the others into my room.

When I walked into the room and got to the table, I tried to start discussing it early,

"Master Tenma, if you will, put us by your side as slaves."

".................. heh"

Suddenly I couldn't keep up with Aura's words.

Now, didn't Aura tell you to put yourself down as slaves if it wasn't my mistake...

"Make us slaves to Tenma. This is the answer that Jeanne and I decided to discuss."

Apparently it wasn't my mistake to hear... but

"Why, that's what you decided?

I couldn't help wondering. Because Jeanne seemed resistant to becoming my slave at first.

"Because I thought that was the best choice. Of course, I can't help but say I don't like Tenma..."

Aura says so, but there seems to be some reason. Try to pursue there,

"I do have plans. The prime reason for this is because Tenma is an adventurer of considerable strength and the Marquis is powerful enough to bow his head."

If I did try Aura and the others, it could be a pretty good condition to protect myself. But I didn't even think about having a slave...

"If Tenma doesn't take it from us, we might be treated like whores."

... I follow what I don't like... Surely Jeanne and Aura can definitely fall into categories such as Beautiful Girls from the side, And you won't leave both of those guys alone.

"I'm a man too..."

I'll try to resist Aura,

"Yeah, if we're forced by some stranger pervert, it's thousands of times better to pick someone of our own future."

Easy for me to eat the counter...... two sentences don't carry over to me,

"Oh, but if you're going to get your hands on Jeanne, don't do it until you get your approval from the person. Instead, you can do whatever you want."

... packed, this looks like it's packed... I at least as a resistance to

"I'll see you tomorrow after this story..."

All I could do was send the problem forward...

Aura laughed nicely,

"Yeah, let's do that. Your husband."

and I was sure I would win.

By the way, Jeanne, who didn't make any remarks, blushed her face and also sprinkled Shiloumal to delude it... apparently, Shiloumal fell into Jeanne's technique... Shiloumal, aren't you going to be too chocolate?

For that reason, apparently, it was decided to add two fellows to my party with the title Slave... would it be all right to have your work scheduled after this... me...

For that reason, I thought about renting another room from Amy, but because Aura opposed me, I was going to live in this room with three + three people.

The bed was used by Aura and Jeanne, who are not fit yet, and I made a bunk on the floor for today. Aura said she was going to sleep on the floor, but she firmly refused, and she was still not convinced, so she used the order to convince her.

In the meantime, I decided that today's dinner would be done with the rest of the stew I made in the dungeon and the bread, and the meat I baked, and I decided to give the two of them an early rest, and I myself decided to set up a tool prep or a rough op for the night's work... I wonder if there's any time unwinding in space-time magic... if there was one, I'd use it immediately and leave Jeanne and the others in my guild to escape...

For me, who had never lived together before, including in my previous life, the sudden increase in the number of two female slaves was just as disturbing as dealing with dragons.
