Chapter 17 (1/2)

Hey, don’t miss it, it’s a high quality product!」

The voices and laughter of the vulgar men resounded. While, the sound of the hoof beats gradually approached. Even the sound of the carriage’s wheels that were running as if jumping on the ground can be heard from a place a little further away.

There was a figure of a person who is fleeing hard as if being driven away by that sound.

It’s a girl with light blue hair and triangular ears, and the fur of her long tail that was sticking out at the hole of her skirt was standing on end.

Moving desperately with her slender limbs and small build, the girl welled up with tears and looked around.

She was a girl who can ran at an astonishing speed, but she was caught up by the horse in the end.

「Oraa!」

The man who’s riding on a horse raised a shout and threw a rope that was connected to a weight, which coiled around the girl’s foot.

「Gyan!」

The girl raised a scream and rolls over the ground. Her body was slammed on the ground with a terrible force because her speed was too fast and the girl totally collapsed with her face on the ground.

The man who stopped the horse came down while laughing. Seeing the two carriages that were catching up at the corner of his eyes, the man walked towards the girl who fell on her face.

Drawing out a dagger from his waist, he grabbed the shoulder of the girl with his left hand.

「Tsu!」

Right after he grabbed her, the girl swings a small knife while turning around.

The sound of a hard metal hitting each other echoes and the man’s dagger made a irregular cross with the blade of the knife which the girl held.

「You’re strong-willed for a beastman, ain’t you.」

When the man said that while laughing, he skillfully kicked the hand of the girl which was holding the knife with his foot and grabbed her head with his right hand.

「It’s my bad for being careless and falling in your trap, but I’m not that kind of idiot.」

「U, uu……」

Maybe because her head is being grabbed very tight, the girl leaked out a scream and can’t even thrash her limbs.

Eventually, the carriages have caught up and the coachman who was driving the carriages stopped it, and two people came down.

「Oi, that was a terrible roll.」

「She didn’t get any injuries that can’t be healed, right?」

Hearing the two who appeared while saying such things in unison, the man snorted as if they were annoying.

「Do you think I would make that kind of mistake? Hey, bring me the slave seal」

「You wanna do it now?」

「This fellow, it’s because she runs a lot. Let’s do it in advance in case she actually escapes.」

The moment when man said that, the girl raised a beast-like voice and began to act violently. The man holds her down with force and he looks back at the two.

「See?」

「O, ooh. She’s too lively, isn’t she? Here, it’s the slave seal.」

After saying that, the man took out a box. It is a box that looks sturdy with a big lock. When he open the box, an object similar to a white rectangular stamp can be seen from the inside.

The man who pressed down the girl nodded his head and looked at the girl.

「Look, We’re gonna seal you now!」
