"Ughhm ... Okay ..."
Later that night we would go to the most secret place in the corner of the city.
Why can I say that?
Well ... You see, they are located in a hidden place away from the main streets of the city.
Then, every small road that became the only path to that location was as if it was being watched by someone.
I don't know why, but every time we entered the interior of the territory, I somehow felt my back was being stared at by something when I knew there was no one around.
"It's natural because of our clothes."
"Ugh, you're saying that we're the only ones wearing these coats?"
After we got there, there was only a sea of humans with clothes covering the entire black body that I found.
Elijah said to me after his eyes swept over every corner of the building.
"At least they're trying to hide their identity."
Well ... That's a logical reason in my opinion.
Since this was a forbidden location, they might not want their faces exposed from coming to this place.
Who knows if among the visitors there is someone from the royal knight who will go undercover, as in our current case, well ... That's probably the reason.
"Let's go in, we'll also pretend to be one of them."
"Oh, okay."
The house and other houses turned out to be different, according to their size and height.
Then if you pay attention again, there is nothing as luxurious as this house in the neighborhood.
At least I had to queue with Elijah before we could enter the middle of the room, and even then had to pass through a strict selection of someone with a sturdy body before us.
"You're new?"
As if asking, "A stranger face." the slippery-headed man looked at me in turn before heading towards Elijah who then said.
"Yes, uhmmm ... We're looking for slaves, unlimited purchases."
As if struck by lightning on the head, the man stared for a few seconds before shaking his head and letting us in.
"Wow, great ... How'd you do that?"
"Just something simple."
Since Elijah had no intention of explaining, he just made me a little curious in that part. He~ at least you tell me because I am your partner now!
Entering the building, we were greeted by several servants.
My breath was stifled when confirming something I recognized as.
"Welcome to the slave trade center in this city──nyaa!"
"We are waiting for you guys──nyaa!"
What he says at the end of a sentence like, "Meow" there's certainly only one sentence to answer.
"Cat girl!"
Beastman, at least that's what I found in this place. Then their numbers are also very numerous and varied.
Starting from the loli (Note: children under 14 years old.) and there are adults.
Ughb ... If it was me, I wouldn't be able to bear to see everything suddenly calling me like a "master" or anything that could make my heart beat.
"You okay? Apparently Master Dragon Slayer was already tempted by that half animal?"
While Elijah is chuckling now.
"I'm very healthy ..."
Although I said so, somehow this somewhat awkward feeling stuck with me as more and more cat beastmen we met, and one of them seemed to be smiling at me.
"Well ... This is why I hate slavery."
Elijah then told me that their smile was fake.
"Eh? Whatchu mean?"
At first glance I would probably think it was something sincere, but it turned out that something was wrong in a certain part of her body. At least that is what Elijah said.
"So ..."
I looked around, only to find that the entire half-cat human beastman was wearing the same thing.
"Are they also under influence?"
"Yes, you're right. You know why everyone is allowed to be a waiter like that?"
A~ Because I don't know, I just shook my head.
Right after Elijah said something shocking like, "They're begging us to buy them." My shock grew to a new level.
"So the reason the cat girls came to me was because they were going to sell themselves?"
"Yes, they had to do it. Also, if there was nothing to do among the slaves, even worse things would befall him like being banished. Well, the only way to avoid that is to attract visitors like us, to buy them."
"How did that happen?"
Oh sure, of course the root of the matter is the owner of this place. Something's wrong with the iru people. Well ... Then I'll find him now.
I could have destroyed this building with the [Fire Ball] skill if I wanted to, but it seems like it would have gone as far as our goal of not wanting to attract too much attention.
"If it were me, I would just do my job. Come on, time to act."
I'm shaking my head.
"Say your plan."
...----------------...
"But before this starts I want to discuss a few things with you."
"Well, I'll listen as long as they don't hurt me."
Then Elijah whispered something beside my ear that immediately made me shake my head firmly.
"Then why do we have to wait any longer?"
First of all, we will go to a location known as where the commodity is stored.
For example, in a room filled with iron fences.
We jumped from the ceiling to face someone who was guarding the door.
"Who──uakh"
Elijah incapacitated one guard after stabbing something in the person's neck, which would indirectly make the other guards nearby would shout loudly.
But before he managed to make a sound, I was already in front of him and with the help of the [Speed Bost] skill, allowed me to land a punch on the forehead of this person and one other person behind that guard.
The bodies of the two fell to the ground after I made them into corpses.
Right, they're dead. The first time I did it was today, somehow guilt started haunting me.
But after that, the notification leveled up and then appeared along with.
