Vol 1 Chapter 2 (2/2)

If that was the case, putting Meena on another luxury tent for high quality slaves is a must.

Since Mark was stingy on the money, it just means that Mark didn’t knew that Meena was a Shrine Maiden.

There was no moral obligation to tell him.

I intend to fully utilize this information that Mark didn’t knew.

Shrine Maiden of the Beastmen tribe.

I felt inclined to hear about her blessing from her directly that I had secretly asked her about it afterwards.

Whether she was by any chance a Shrine Maiden or not.

Meena was surprised. She had a facial expression as if to say how did I know, but I didn’t directly hear it from her.

Instead, I only heard her say “Who the h.e.l.l are you?”

She seemed to be cautious somehow.

“I’m just a simple slave trader apprentice” is what I had told her for now. “However, I don’t quite get along with the store owner”

“Really?”

She never said anymore words.

Meena didn’t spoke carelessly. It was because of the carved slave seal, if she bares any ill-intent towards the master, she will suffer from the magic. Therefore she only said safe words.

However I already knew just from Meena’s reactions.

It seemed that Meena, being a Shrine Maiden was the truth.

It was a very important information that I would like to keep a secret.

“Hey Meena”

“? What is it?”

Mark had started another work.

I saw it as a chance to talk to Meena.

Of course Mark must not know about it. If he knew about it, it will just give him a reason to beat the s.h.i.+t out of me.

So far, my reason was just to talk to her.

“Why were you captured?”

I just want to really hear her story.

Meena’s status is not the kind that she should be caught easily.

Her numerical values doesn’t really differ that much from an ordinary person.

Name: Meena Serianslope (Slave)

Age : 15 Years Old

Level : 6

HP : 21 MP : 6

Strenght : 8

Agility : 9

Magic Power : 2

Endurance : 4

Unique Blessing: Shrine Maiden of the Beastmen tribe

Special Skill: Spearmans.h.i.+p Lv. 3

Special Skill: Dancing Lv. 2

Special Skill: Body Reinforcement Lv. 1

Having Spearmans.h.i.+p Lv. 3 will make her an excellent spear fighter compared to that of the common soldiers.

Because at Lv. 3, it will make her on par with a veteran adventurer. So how?

How did she got captured?

That question was bugging me.

“Why are you asking about that?”

And Meena responded with somewhat looking baffled.

There were signs that she was being cautious and I stopped thinking about it.

It was reasonable that Meena should not trust me

In fact she would even thought I was a suspicious person.

Why didn’t this man told Mark that she herself was a Shrine Maiden?

Perhaps there was some evil scheme being planned.

Such signs would make someone cautious.

So looking it at Meena’s point of view, it was reasonable to think so.

I thought this would take quite a while.

Shouldn’t I build her trust over a long period of time to get the story out of her?

I should probably do it that way.

I must first make a plan and give great effort to receive Meena’s trust.
