Chapter 138 (2/2)

It wouldn't be seen from Grave-san who is in the middle of writing, but the soldier's face smirked a little.

Perhaps, they thought we came to this city without knowing the circumstances of beastmen who were kidnapped and enslaved. In case Deizu found out about it and go wild, they would have a good lead to inflict

that responsibility on Grave-san..... But we all knew about this and were so eager to get violent.....

Grave-san simply wrote ”Grave an S-rank adventurer will take responsibility”, while knowing everything.

Perhaps, he means taking responsibility for leaving such a country until now, and will definitely finish off this country. I got the feeling that ”responsibility” here had such a meaning..... soldier-san, my condolences!

Grave-san drops some blood beside his name and push his thumb on it as a proof. The soldier in front of the gate opened the path as we finally got our permit. Thus we were able to enter the city.

[It seems the situation is worse than I thought.....] (Grave)

[Yeah.....] (Wazu)

The inside of the city is more terrible than I imagined. Many of the building are tattered, the citizen with skinny body and eyes that has lost its light, are scattered here and there. It's such a situation where you don't know whether they are still alive or dead.

Only the merchants are entering and leaving from the gate, when the citizen is trying to pass through the gate, the soldiers will pull out their sword, threaten and forcibly dragging them back to the city.

Inside the taverns that we saw as we passing by, the soldiers are laughing happily while drinking alcohol, or shouting out towards the shopkeepers and the employees for every little things they felt unpleasant.

Beastmen with slavery collars are struggling with such store owners and employees. When something doesn't suit their taste, the soldiers kicked, hit, and abused them, while laughing.

Such sights were able to be seen all over the city. This country can't be saved anymore. I should finish off this country as soon as possible.

[Deizu..... You do not have to put up with it anymore. We will head straight to the castle to cut off the roots now. You can move as you please from here on. You want to look for your daughter, right?] (Wazu)

[I'm thankful for bringing me up here!!] (Deizu)

[Then, I will assist Deizu-sama too, I leave the castle to Wazu-sama and the other members] (Freud)

[I will also go around with Deizu. It would be better to have more people to save this number, as expected] (Grave)

It seems Freud and Grave-san are going to help Deizu. Certainly, there may be too many people for Deizu to handle alone. If these two people following him, there will be no danger to some extent. However, the problem is.....

[What should we do with the slavery collar later.....?] (Wazu)

[There is no problem with that. I will be able to remove the slavery collar as a matter of fact] (Freud)

[How should I put this..... You are so versatile in everything..... ] (Wazu)

[Because I'm a butler] (Freud)

Freud would be a perfect butler if his shadiness disappears..... well, let's forget it!

[Then I leave the surrounding city to Freud, Grave-san, and Deizu. I will go straight to the castle with the others from here..... Just in case, be careful! Well, I don't think I need to worry though] (Wazu)

[Your side that doesn't need to be worried, doesn't it?] (Grave)

Grave-san finally smiled, we nod and look at each other before separating.

Grave-san’s group entered the alley and disappeared into the city. After making sure their figure can't be seen anymore, we left the place and walked towards the castle.
