Chapter 27

(With this would be five).

After having been in charge of eliminating the bandits that were setting fire to the town, I decided to return with the girls, I quickly flew towards the girls and while doing so I watched as an arrow was heading towards Arisa, I was about to teleport when I noticed that Shiro threw himself to catch the arrow, but it did not come out as expected and the arrow stuck in his hand, the moment the arrow went through Shiro's hand I received a notification on the edge of my sight when I touched the notification automatically the Map showed me the location of Shiro.

(If the extra Map function works, but I didn't want to test it this way.)

I teleported to the girls side and took out some guys who were near them.

Give me your hand-Kasumi.

Shiro grimacing in pain gave me his hand, I disintegrated the arrow and using advanced healing magic I healed Shiro's hand in an instant, while I finished removing the remains of blood from Shiro's hand, an arrow hit me right to the side from my head shattering with the impact, I looked at the arrow and it was identical to the one that had gone through Shiro's hand, I finished removing the blood from Shiro's hand and started walking towards the group of bandits, some archers shot arrows at me to Trying to stop me but it was completely useless, when I was close enough I created some swords and in an instant I pierced each man's chest, undid the swords and just went back to the girls.

After having murdered all the bandits, several of the residents began to come out of their hiding places, some looked at us with admiration, but others with fear, without paying any interest to the people who began to leave from all sides, we returned to the inn, I stayed outside the room while the girls were changing their clothes, when they gave me the signal to enter I entered the room, thus ending our night a bit entertaining.

.................................

In the morning, as we had already agreed, we left the town in the early hours, as the trip had already passed before, the trip became very boring, time passed and in just a few more days of travel we managed to reach the city of Shoe, from a fairly long distance they could appreciate gigantic walls, closer I could see the entrance of the city, I also noticed that on the wall there were small structures, using my telescopic view I could see that these were small guard posts, after a few more minutes on the way we managed to get there at the entrance of the city.

We separated from the merchant who went to the entrance of the carriages while we went to the entrance of people, the entrance had a line of about fifteen people who were entering fast, the only thing they had to do to enter the city It was to touch an orb to know your crimes and pay a small tax, for a moment I thought that the girls having murdered the bandits in the small town were going to have problems, but after nothing strange came out in their states, wait to see the as a result of the orb of the entrance, if things got complicated I was going to take them out of the place at full speed, after waiting for a few minutes our turn came.

Following the protocol of the other people, I touched the orb and obviously nothing happened, I paid the tax and waited for the girls, but luckily the orb did not react to the girls, that way we could enter the city.

(Surely murdering bad people does not count as murder, what a strange world).

I stopped thinking about Esdrul's way of judging and we continued walking, the first thing I looked for was an inn, it was only a matter of a few minutes to be able to find a fairly good inn at a not so high price, after securing the inn I decided to give a walk through the city with the girls, the first thing we visited was a restaurant, after being able to fill our stomachs we began to walk around the city, on our walk we could see many incredible things, but what I found most incredible was that the people they got along well with demi-humans, although they weren't all people, you could tell the difference between my hometown and this one, without a doubt a big change.

We wandered around different sides of the city and without a doubt I had a lot of fun, having moments of peace with the girls were always very relaxing, but while I was guiding the girls, her spirits faded, this was due to the building in front of us, the the building was quite serrated and quiet, over the entrance of this there was a sign that said Slave Shop.

Although it was a quite beautiful city it had a slave shop, as I walked towards the entrance I noticed the silence of the girls, just a few minutes ago they were laughing and sharing many words, but now they were quiet looking at the ground, trying to ignore the girls I arrived at the entrance of the building where some guards just kept looking at me like the girls, I could see how some of them looked at me normal while others looked at me with hatred, the truth is that I did not like anything to enter that type of local, but that was the only option.

Previously I wanted to learn the magic that the slave traders used, but I could not find anything, not being able to learn it I had to go on my own where a slave trader, I entered the store and the moment I did I was received by a young man elegant, the young man asked about my business which was to see a slave trader to remove the slavery of the girls, the young man after hearing my request led me to a living room furnished with two long armchairs and a table in the middle of I both sat on one of the furniture and the girls sat next to me at the other end of the furniture.

After waiting for a few minutes a slightly plump middle-aged man entered through one of the doors of the room, just by his outfit and the way he looked at the girls I knew instantly that he was a slave trader .

Greetings young customer, can you tell me the reason for his visit?-Merchant.

I want to remove the contract of these three girls-Kasumi.

If he wants to eliminate contracts it will cost him a silver coin each of them-Merchant.

No problem-Kasumi.

From my pocket I took out three silver coins and put them on the table in front of us, the merchant of his suit took out two scrolls.

Well, first young client put her name on this scroll, then his slaves have to put their names on this other-Merchant.

Obviously the girls were not my slaves, but even knowing that I continued with what the merchant said, I put my name on the parchment like the girls, we gave the scrolls to the merchant and upon receiving them he rolled them up, put the two scrolls in the table and began to say some words, after a few seconds the scrolls were surrounded by a red light only for a few seconds, when the light went out the merchant turned to see me.

Young client, trying to free someone else's slave is a crime-Merchant.

The merchant looked at me seriously as he said those words.

The truth is that these girls are not my slaves, but that is because their slave owner died, I found them when they were almost eaten by monsters in the forest, they begged me to free them and here I am, there is no other way to free them-Kasumi.

From my pocket I took out a white gold coin and put it on the table, the merchant, looking at my action, narrowed his eyes.

Trying to bribe a person is another young customer crime-Merchant.

Really? I didn't know that-Kasumi.

Again I reached into my pocket and put three more white gold coins on the table.

But just for this time I'll let it pass-Merchant.

Without saying more, the merchant tried to grab the coins, but before he did, I grabbed the coins.

So if you can take away their slavery? -Kasumi.

Yes-Merchant.

Again the merchant sat correctly and extended both hands towards the girls, the merchant whispered some very strange words and in just a few seconds a circle with many lines appeared on each merchant's palm, after a few more seconds the circles slowly turned in opposite directions, after both circles made a single turn the merchant under their hands.

Ready, keep in mind young client that I am risking my life for what I just did-Trader.

With some fatigue the merchant told me that he had finished, I checked the status of the girls and seeing that they were not runaway slaves I handed the coins to the merchant, I was about to leave when the merchant told me that if I wanted to look at the merchandise, Obviously I refused but the shopkeeper kept insisting, in the end to avoid inconvenience I accepted, I told the girls to wait for me in the living room but not before raising a barrier around them.

Next to the merchant we walked through some corridors until we reached a room similar to a warehouse, in the place there were many cages with people inside, both human and semi-human, there were women, men and even children in the large number of cages, many of them they were just in one corner of the cage sitting doing nothing, honestly my blood boiled looking around me, the merchant happily told me about the different types of slaves he had while pointing out some cages.

I had a great desire to kill the merchant who kept talking happily but I held myself back, trying not to look at the cages I kept walking next to the merchant, after several minutes wandering in the middle of the maze of cages I noticed that we were about to finish, I felt relieved to get out of that lousy place but just as we were walking through the last cages at the edge of my sight I looked in a cage at a girl with light green hair in the corner of a cage, I was going to keep walking, but I stopped when I looked at one of his pointed ears, I quickly took a look at his status and was surprised to look at his race.

(She is an elf).

I was very surprised but at the same time very furious, in my hometown I was looking for elves for a long time and just the one I found at this moment was being enslaved, the merchant looking at my interest in the girl told me that she had been brought by a merchant years ago, the merchant who brought her died and she was left there abandoned, due to its price no one had actually bought her, according to the merchant she was in her best age and was completely pure, obviously she already knew all that since she had seen her condition.

How much does it cost? -Kasumi.

She is worth five white gold coins-Merchant.

I'll take her-Kasumi.

Without hesitation I replied to the merchant while I took out the five coins from my pocket, the merchant happily led me back to the living room while telling a girl to go get the elf, we returned to the living room where the girls were, I undid the barrier of the girls and I sat next to her while they brought the elf, after a few minutes they brought the elf with clothes a little better than the ones she had, the elf did not say anything and simply did what the merchant told her, she looked like a robotic doll.

The elf sat next to me and the merchant whispered some words, we were both surrounded by a golden light which did not last a few seconds.

You are done-Merchant.

I gave the money to the merchant and without saying anything else we left the building, without saying anything we all went to the inn, already in the inn an uncomfortable silence gave rise, the girls were sitting on their bed while I was in the other, since We had gone to the slave shop, they were very quiet and seemed very sad, without being able to bear the silence any longer, I decided to speak.

If you're wondering why I bought her it was on a whim, I couldn't leave her there, I plan to release her in another city anyway-Kasumi.

Although I tried to break the silence, the girls still did not say something, I sighed at her attitude and moved to talk to them.

Hey, if you have something to say say so, no matter what-Kasumi.

The girls were still quiet while trying to say something, but they didn't speak, after continuing to wait, Yui stood up and turned to see me.

N ... no ...- Yui.

Not what? -Kasumi.

No ... no ... DON'T TAKE ME BACK TO THE VILLAGE, I WANT TO FOLLOW BY YOUR SIDE! -Yui.

Yui was very blushing and was not looking at her face, followed by Yui Shiro stood up.

I NEITHER WANT YOU TO TAKE ME TO THE VILLAGE, I WANT TO CONTINUE WITH YOU! -Shiro.

Without taking it anymore Arisa stood up.

I ALSO WANT TO STAY BY YOUR SIDE! -Arisa.

The truth was I was surprised by her words, although I thought they only wanted to thank me for helping them and freeing them, I did not expect them to want to continue by my side.

(Martha, I have underestimated you).

All this time Martha had been right, in part I felt happy for the girls decision, but on the other hand things were getting even more complicated, part of me wanted to say no to them and return them to their village, but another part of I told myself that this was good and I felt very happy, I had a whirlpool in my mind; The girls were still waiting for my answer which was yes or no, if I accepted my trip it would be much more entertaining, if I did not accept my solitary trip it would continue its course, my boring solitary trip.

(Fuck that mess).

I sighed at all the events, seriously looked at the girls and spoke to them.

Arisa, Shiro, Yui, answer honestly, if you stay by my side you will be involved in many dangers, you will have to fight with many monsters and you will also have to kill people many times, are you willing to be by my side even knowing that your life? Will you be in danger? -Kasumi.

YES! -Arisa, Shiro, Yui.

(An immediate response ...).

I sighed heavily as I lay down on the bed.

Well, you will accompany me on my journey to the forest of the elves, from then on you can choose whether to continue or return-Kasumi.

I looked out of the edge of my sight at the girls as they became happy, I couldn't help but smile slightly as I looked at them.

If you are going to travel with me from now on you will need more luggage and also take these-Kasumi.

I gave each a small bag easy to put on the waist, each of the bags had a few square meters of space available to store what could fit in it.

With those you can keep many items in them without worrying about rotting, in them you can find money to buy what you want, you can keep your weapons inside them so that they are always with you, finally, while I am not present they are exposed to attacks and therefore use these rings capable of stopping physical and magical attacks-Kasumi.

From my Inventory I took out the rings and floated them in front of the girls, who just stared at them.

This ...- Shiro.

Don't get me wrong, this is for your safety and wearing physical armor will get in the way of fighting-Kasumi.

The girls grabbed the rings and put them on the index finger of the right hand.

We will stay in this city for a few days before going to the next one, go buy what you think will be useful for the trip, use all the money you want, I will stay to try to make the guest come back to her senses-Kasumi.

By guest I meant the elf who when we entered the room she went to a corner where she sat on the floor without doing anything, the girls upon hearing my words looked at me narrowing their eyes.

Don't see me like that, I'm not going to hurt you, you were exposed all this time and I didn't do anything, the same goes for her-Kasumi.

The girls blushed a bit and hurried out of the room without saying anything, without the girls in the room looking at the elf in the corner.

Come-Kasumi.

The girl stood up quickly and walked until she was in front of me, looking closely at the girl was very beautiful, her beautiful light green hair was somewhat damaged and messy with dirt, her eyes were sky blue and her skin could be seen that It was white but it was a bit grubby, and not to mention that it emanated a slightly foul odor, I quickly cleaned her entire body removing even the slightest trace of dirt, using water magic I gave her a bath without touching her, finally I put another one on her clothes on which he had and disintegrate the one he was wearing, thus avoiding looking at anything of his naked body, the truth is that being surrounded by women kept me quite alert, being a man my instincts remained the same and having a vulnerable elf may make me curious to know how her body is, for that reason avoid looking at her naked, after changing her and bathing her, fix her hair.

Okay, now how the hell do I wake you-Kasumi.

I began to see her from different angles and touched her cheek with my hand, the girl did not even move an inch, I began to move her arms and her head, but I still did not react, I was trying to wake her up in different ways, but the girl did not I react to nothing, I even cause slight pain in his arms and nothing happened.

Hmm this is getting complicated-Kasumi.

Running out of ideas I began to think of something that did not include abusing her, while I analyzed everything I remembered a story from Earth that had an event similar to this, I looked at the girl and I couldn't help but swallow hard, I discarded the idea for a while, but I could not find another solution, I approached the elf and put my hand on her chin, lightly touched her lips and decided to get closer until I was only inches away, I hesitated for a moment but I had nothing to lose by trying.

Without wasting any more time I kissed her, the moment I began to kiss her I felt almost the same sensation as when Liz kissed me, but it felt a little different, without separating from the elf's lips I continued to kiss her passionately, but, although towards my eldest effort nothing happened.

(This is useless).

I was about to separate from the girl when suddenly I felt her lips move, followed by that I heard how her heart was beating rapidly, I separated from the girl at that moment only to meet the elf with a very face. furious.

YOU BASTARD AAAAA! -Elf.

The girl fell to her knee screaming in pain.

GARBAGE AAAAAAAAA! -Elf.

Again the girl insulted me and she began to writhe in pain on the floor, her slave contract was punishing her for insulting me.

Don't speak-Kasumi.

The girl, even without speaking, continued to writhe in pain as she looked at me severely, without wasting a second more I approached her and extracted all the mana from her, leaving her unconscious.

..............................

A couple of hours had already passed, the girls were still wandering around the city according to the map, for my part I was reading a little about the elves, while I was in the middle of the book I heard how the elf girl began to wake up, I put down the book of side and I waited patiently for her to wake up, after about a minute the girl sat on the edge of the bed and began to quickly look around, stopping right in my direction, quickly the girl changed her expression to one of hatred.

Before you say anything, I'm sorry, it's all a misunderstanding, believe me when I tell you that that was the only option-Kasumi.

The girl, although she looked very annoyed, took a deep breath and calmed down, but she did not speak for obvious reasons.

Right, let you speak, I'm really sorry for giving you that bad first impression-Kasumi.

Anyway, where am I and how did I get here?-Elf.

Don't you remember anything? -Kasumi.

The girl looked surprised for a moment and out of nowhere she grabbed her head while she screamed slightly, I quickly approached the girl and before she could put a hand on top of her she put her hand to stop me.

I'm fine, it's just a little headache-Elf.

I moved away from the girl again and waited for her to calm down to continue talking to her.

Although it sounds strange, I will tell you your current situation, I found you in a slave shop and brought you here, you were in a strange state in which you were like a doll, I was trying to wake you up in different ways, but only with that kiss I could wake you up, but don't worry I didn't touch your body and I didn't abuse you, you can be calm-Kasumi.

Hearing my words the girl became static and out of nowhere she began to shed tears followed by a very loud cry.
