47 [1-47] Silence: Under the rose, (1/2)

There are many countries in the world where slavery still remains, but the Temple forces have long been campaigning for the abolition of slavery.

In the event that you have any questions regarding where and the best way to get in touch with us, please do not hesitate to contact us.

If it's ......, Mehranze wonders, what am I now?

If you've forgotten, I'll tell you!　I'm livestock!

Yeah.

I don't need the head housekeeper, Mrs. Brenke, to tell me that.

They were ...... ”livestock” kept by the Marquesses of Seebach, the court nobility of Ciel-Teira.

In Ciel-Teira, there are no laws governing the treatment of subraces.

If slavery is forbidden, they should be treated like cattle.

There are so few sub-humans in the country that we don't even know how many there are. They don't bother to make laws to help them. And Miaranse knew from past experience that even temples were unreliable in this country.

Mehranze is half human and half Ketsee, a feline beast. In human terms, she looks about 17 or 18 years old.

However, her appearance is quite human-like, with the only subhuman features being her claws, which are harder and sharper than normal, her amber eyes, whose pupils change greatly depending on the light, and the large triangular ears on top of her head.

If left unchecked, his entire body would be covered with the same glossy black body hair as his head hair, which he was forced to shave frequently.

Living with her parents in the southern forest, Miaranse was sold to Ciel-Teira after her parents were killed by poachers.

His master, the Marquis of Seebach, is very fond of Miaranse.

The Marquis of Seebach is very fond of Miaranse, but his fondness for her is bizarre and twisted, and he takes pleasure in watching Miaranse in agony.

Miaranse was treated as a person of lower rank than any other servant in the house, and was allowed to attend to any business as long as it did not involve death.

From early in the morning, he had to clean the fireplace, prepare meals, sweep, wash, carry, and clean the stables. ......

The amount of work was physically impossible to do, and if you were late, you were yelled at for being slow and lazy.

After a long day of work, the Marquis is happy to see Miaranse so tired and battered, and sometimes he even uses her as a plaything.

In addition to the usual maid's uniform, Miaranse wears a black, smeared, leather collar with a bell.

This is the ”Collar of Obedience,” a magic item that makes her do things regardless of her own will. This collar prohibits Miaranse from escaping, and also makes it impossible for her to refuse various commands.

It's an expensive magic item, so the fact that she wears it might be a sign of favoritism. For Miaranse, it's a love that she doesn't need 100%.

Incidentally, the bell has nothing to do with the function of the item, but was added later at the suggestion of the Marquis so that those around Miaranse would know where he was.

Today's work is a little different from the usual. ”Today's task is a little different from usual.

There were more than ten carriages in front of the house, including some that had been bought out of the wagons, and the servants were carrying the luggage to be loaded into them.

However, even under these circumstances, in the end, what Miaranze does is much the same.

Carrying a pile of luggage three or four times the size of the surrounding area, Miaranze staggered along.

--God. If you are there, ......

”Ah!

Miarandze's foot caught on something, and he fell, throwing off his pile.

When he looked up, he saw the maid smiling sarcastically at him. He couldn't see what was in front of him because of the luggage, but he felt like he was trapped. But Mehranze wouldn't allow me to argue with her.

”You scum!　You scum!　How dare you defile the precious cargo of your master!

Aah!

Immediately, Master Brenke flew over and used a nearby broom to slap Miallanze's ass as hard as she could.

Insidious laughter erupted from all around.

...... This is a show.

--Why did you create this world in such an ugly and painful way?

I'm not sure what to make of it.

”The Rose Princess of Hell” ......

If she kills her master, the Marquis, will this life be over?

I'm not sure.

”Daryaaa!

The final blow, the end of the accumulated damage.

I'm not sure if you've seen this before, but I've seen it before.

Cracked helmets, cracked armor, dismembered bodies, and blown up lightning swords: ......

It was the end of the evil undead monster that had destroyed so many villages. It doesn't seem to be rising again.

”......Huh!

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

It's a great way to make sure you're getting the most out of your vacation.

He was the leader of the country's most powerful party, the ”Spear of Zero”, and was an elite adventurer of the sixth rank.

Thank you for your hard work. You're the leader of the spear!”

It was a girl in light armor who quickly rushed to Zeft and thanked him.

...... at least in appearance.

Her eyes were the color of the setting sun, and her skin was porcelain white. Her long, honey-colored hair is tied up in a bun while she is on a quest.

Her armor is made of the leather of the worm, a minor dragon, and is called ”corset mail”, a common design for female adventurers. The armor fits her body like a thief's, but her curly skirt is unique in its own way. Her absolute area is dazzling (her clothes are made to be cold-proof for this exposure).

Tracy the Thief. An elite adventurer who is currently working with the ”spear of zero spear”, but does not belong to any particular party, and goes from one party to another depending on the request (quest).

Tracy is a man in his mid-thirties, though he has a very girlish appearance and is very affectionate. ......

It's a good idea to have a good idea of what you're looking for.

If it weren't for Zeft, we probably wouldn't have won.

”No, I wouldn't have won without Tracy's help.

The female members of the party (a priest and a grappler) looked blankly at Zeft, who didn't seem too happy about being lifted by Tracy.

”What's with the leader? What's with the leader?

”I mean, Tracy's a guy.

It's not that he's jealous or anything, it's just that he doesn't understand why Zeft, who's supposed to be heteros*xual, would be leering at Tracy.

But the wizard and the tank, who are both men like Zeft, shake their heads.

You don't understand. ...... He's something else to everyone. He's like a character in a story.

That's a man's dream, man. That's a dream.
