Chapter 271: The Release, and the Second Death
※Depiction of cruelty Reader’s discretion is advised
Several days passed since the sdo with the afterather the slaves in the royal capital (excluding those ere registered as crie sudom of Sandora and send back those who have a place to return to with [Gate] As for the places which I haven’t visited yet, I ask them to allow me to peek into their memories to send them back home
I’ve already notified the members of the East-West Alliance in advance so that I’ll be able to return the slaves back to their hometowns smoothly to some extent
Naturally, I also help the folks from the tribes of the forest sea that Pam and her tribe entrusted uys first to the Great Forest Sea without le person
「Yes, please line up Don’t panic, and please fall in line horizontally」
Before passing through the [Gate], the slaves have their [Subordination Collars] disempowered by a [Secret Weapon] created by the professor and Tica fro them from slavery
Tica injects an object that looks like a syringe without a needle into the collars of the slaves who are lined up in a row It’s an artifact called [Initialize] that the two of them created
In simple teric that has been applied to anything
In a certain sense, it’s a dreadful dorade into ordinary tools if that artifact is applied on the that the barrier, which was applied on the afore that the Islanders can’t do anything about, then it’s possible for this artifact to be a solution to eli, it’s a ] as enchantic power is naturally me Therefore, it will take an enore it The aic power it has is so enorician about a year to fully charge it, I guess?
Every er from the Babylon numbers disempowered the slavery chokers, and the freed slaves are then sent back to their hoh a [Gate] one by one
There are also obstructing people who don’t want to release their slaves sihts froht order of our household suppress and throw thees where the slaves have been put into after tying them up
There are also those who personally refused to be liberated from slavery, albeit those exceptions are few It looks like they are satisfied with their position and aren’t being forced to say that stateainst their will, so we’ve allowed theh we still dise after that is up to the feelings of the person in question … So there are people who feel that way, huh? Yep, I guess there really people who are like that
Several days have passed since we’ve liberated the slaves in the royal capital, and noe have to free the slaves from the other towns
It’s troublesoainst us, so we surround the toith a few dozen fra them lose theira ru of Sandora who had previously declared war on Brunhild and lost his head soon after As such, we’re threatening those feudal lords that they willthat Sandora is a defeated country
Truth be told, I really don’t want to act a threatening manner like this, but I still dared to play this hand since this is necessary in order to free the slaves a lot easier
By the way, the slave wo of Sandora, says that she doesn’t have a place to return to, so I then ask her to co to her, she’s a former adventurer, so I don’t think she’ll have any proble in there
People like her, who neither have a place to return to nor people waiting for the sent to countries they wish to live in There are also people who are going to countries they haven’t visited yet before and those who say that they will remain in Sandora
Naturally, there are people ant to go to Brunhild, so I them receive them as citizens of our country There are still both lands to reclaim and other jobs to do, so I think it won’t be proble while just scraping by
This time around, Kousaka-san reprimands me very harshly, but this event is somehow beneficial to us in a certain sense since we obtained laborers fro about the able to acquire more reparations from Sandora even if we can, had I only conducted s happening here and there, it has taken us more than a month to liberate all slaves in Sandora There are a lot of Sandora’s allies who tried to hide their slaves They even got on board with us on top of helping us search for theh
All in all, the slave traders have lost their employment and became cri citizens of other countries, confining them to trade theuys work in the mines their whole lives The one with the master authority is me so I didn’t release them even onto the mine owners
There are proper(?) slave traders who didn’t dirty their hands by abducting people fron countries Therefore, I’ve decided to overlook their transgressions However, I think that it ht be safer if I send theht?
Frankly speaking, the liberated slaves are probably considering to coe on their fores
However, I have no right to stop that fro a person should decide for hieance if they have the resolution to be arrested, killed or turned into a criood if they won’t do so as foolish as that since they have finally been freed
It’s possible that there are so those treated as cries, so I‘ve decided to ascertain its veracity with a keeler polygraphthem to raise their hands if they are innocent or not is sufficient enough to determine the truth Well, the majority of the degrees of crie of Sandora As expected, it’s not easy for rounds of those people ere forcibly ainst their will so that they could be made into slaves
Nevertheless, I ask Yumina to check their personalities as ic eyes
In all honesty, I’ve been told that there’s no need for o this far, but I think it’s better to leave behind as little as possible of the thing called “slavery” as ood if I can bury slavery even further byit impossible to enslave the perpetrator and be owned by so cri all y on this, am finally liberated It ay too hectic, and I felt that I was a slave to this work until now
Aah, freedom is wonderful!

「… is what I hoped for, but how did it even coht that I was finally released froain standing alone in the audience hall of the Sandora Royal Castle
