Chapter 19 Part1 (2/2)

”Hey, how much is she worth?”

”I'm not sure, but I think enough to let you play around for the rest of your life.”

Originally, Ellie was the [belonging] of a certain n.o.ble.

However, when she on the way to her [next owner], there was a carriage accident, and when she ran for her life she was captured by the people of that village.

That information was soon sent to the nearby village, and the other slaves who had run away with Ellie were put up for a reward.

That was because they were all [rare things].

Her long black hair, wolf ears, and collar, the proof of her slavery.

There was n.o.body who could mistake her rare appearance.

At the end of her life trying to escape, Ellie she was found by villagers who were looking through the garbage for food.

In the first place, it was reckless to live alone while continuing to run away from humans.

Much less to find a place where she could sleep relieved and a stable supply of food.

⸺At last, she was able to run away from that h.e.l.l.

In the darkest, Ellie prepared to go back to her previous life, and despaired.

But then, after a while,

By her biological clock, after about half a day,

She suddenly heard the screams of men, women, children, and the elderly.

In the abnormal situation, Ellie's hazy consciousness gradually grew more clear.

(⸺There's no doubt that something's happening. But what is it?)

When she concentrated her consciousness on her ears in order to grasp the surrounding situation⸺.

⸺Zushari!

Ellie heard the sound of shoes rubbing against the floor.

(⸺Someone's close by!)

Already, she stopped hearing screams.

Did the villagers just quiet down, or did they die?

Little by little, the footsteps approached her.

Zushari……zushari……zusha.

(⸺They stopped nearby!)

She desperately tried to stifle her trembling.

(⸺I'll die! I'll die! I'll be killed!)

Ellie instinctively feared death.

How much time pa.s.sed?

After a while, the footsteps went away.

Then, she heard the sound of the carriage leaving the village.

It seemed the group attacking the village fulfilled their objective, and left.

Relieved that her life was saved, Ellie fainted in the darkness.
