215 Episode 207: Carriage (Sho) (1/2)

It's been about two hours since I saw the skill description properly, hasn't it?

I was walking around wielding a wooden stick like that and the sword moves - SK2 went up in two stages.

You're really glad this is all you got.

So now I'm walking around shadowing my arms like that. I'm totally suspicious from around here...

As I followed the wheel trail as I shadowed, I reached a path that was well maintained for me.

Good, I'm relieved I got out of the woods for a second.

We need to stop shadowing, we might see people.

There's not a single demon so far.

I've been following that path for a while, but something came running from behind me.

Looking back, nothing had come of it yet, but I dare not, avoid it by the road.

About 10 seconds after that, three creatures like horses pulled a large luggage truck.

The carriage itself is ridden by a man with a whip. He must be your man.

I saw inside the carriage as this carriage passed by.

... the contents are a few girls. He was wearing a worn out cloth cut, and I don't know if he had a tattoo on his shoulder… but he had a black print on him anyway.

Besides, it kind of had animal ears on it...

Some kids had one ear cut off a thousand times.

Whatever, he's called a slave...?

All the girls there were mostly around teenagers - so... assuming they were slaves, I mean they would be...! Damn...... chest shit bad no.

I don't know how I can do this right now... All I could do was drop off the carriage.

You're helpless... me. You're really helpless. Where I was, two of my best friends died, and all I could do was regret it. Those siblings, too, flew away by such a different world.

God gave me special powers, and there's no way I can do anything.

..................... now we have to walk.

So again, I was walking for about 10 minutes.

Speaking of which, I'm cold. The color and temperature of the leaves. Is this autumn now?

After all, if that's the case, I don't know how soon we're gonna get to where one is, but don't just get cold with the school run.

Those kids earlier... aren't they cold dressed like that?

That's when I was thinking about it. Forward, I saw something… that was the carriage earlier. It's stopped at the side of the road for some reason.

What's going on?

I was curious, and when I ran to the source of that carriage, the person who was driving was getting out of the carriage and fighting something.

Seemed pretty clumsy.

I'll try to get closer to the carriage.

Almost, when I got to the back of the carriage, I had eyes with a looking child wearing dog ears in the carriage... but those eyes were like no light...

Yes... can we save these kids now?

No... but... that would create quite a few problems. It is visible that things will be worse than they are in the present situation.

Then... what can I do now?

... help those in need...?

Who's in trouble... is he?
