Leo and Selene return to the inn.

Along the way, Leo did not say a word at all. Selene who was beginning to understand what was really happening could only remain silent. Don't want to make this worse.

Upon arrival at the inn, the two of them were greeted by Leo's subordinates. So did Artemis who was seen still playing board games with one of the workers.

"Welcome back, Mr. Leo." Said a man while slightly bowing his body.

They do understand that Leo is pretty cold. But at least, Leos usually return their greetings. While this time, Leo just kept quiet without even glancing at them.

While the two slaves that Leo had just bought, just went inside and sat in the corner of the room. Silent and speechless. To be honest, they were a little surprised to see the treatment of his slaves that looked so kind to Leo.

Is Leo a good person? Did they make the right decision not to run away on this occasion? To be sure, they both decided to pay attention to this condition further.

"Master?"

"Is there something bad going on?"

Some of his men began to ask. They have started to memorize with the attitude and habits of Leo. Seeing this change, they suspect that something has happened.

Behind her, Selene simply followed silently.

"Leave me alone." Said Leo just before opening the door of his study.

"Okay, my lord." Reply Selene. His face was slightly moody, and his eyes were only able to see the floor. He still did not dare to look at his master.

Questions popped into everyone's head. But the only person who could answer was silent.

"Selene, what's going on?" Artemis asked with a worried face.

"I.... I can't explain it." Reply to Selene before leaving Artemis.

And now, the atmosphere of the inn that was previously quite crowded became quiet. No one is talking. Even the usually frenzied Artemis just sat quietly looking at the game board with various pieces on it.

Until suddenly....

"Someone, buy me 40 Mana stones. Take the money in my room." Said Leo from inside his study.

"Good sir, immediately." Reply to one of Leo's subordinates who immediately ran it.

After that, not a word could be heard in the house. Makes it a haunted place.

...- Slave Market -...

Lucas and Reina are still looking for the existence of a figure named 'Dimas' in the market. But no matter how hard they tried, there was not a hint they found.

"That's so.... Thank you very much, Sir." Lucas said to one of the slave traders.

They then headed to the biggest tent in this market. The owner himself was a man who looked quite fat with a long black mustache.

"Welcome to my shop. You'll find the most complete collection on this market." The merchant said welcoming Reina and Lucas.

Without further ado, Reina quickly asked.

"Do you have a male slave with a slightly weak but intelligent body, and named Dimas? He might as well say things that don't make sense." Ask Reina.

Hearing the question, the merchant seemed to think for a moment before answering.

"Hm.... I don't memorize all their names, but for the weak and intelligent men around here. One of them also often rants strange things like the punishment of the Goddess or something." The fat merchant replied while playing his mustache.

Reina's expression changed drastically. A wide smile was immediately visible on his face. While both of his eyes began to open wide with an attitude filled with enthusiasm.

"really?! Let me see it!" Reina. His heart is beating fast. Maybe they will find him eventually.

"It seems we're close, Reina." Reply Lucas with a faint smile.

Reina did not answer. He nodded his head as quickly as possible. While the merchant....

"Come with me. I'll show him."

They followed the merchant slowly. Heading to the corner of the tent where some slaves were seen locked up in an iron cage.

They all had thin bodies and bodies that seemed to have many wounds.

Reina's hopes were now at their peak. Eventually he will be able to find the figure that has always been in his way all this time.

'I thought Dimas would still be alive. Wait a minute, I'll set you free....' Reina thought in her heart.

However, expectations that are too high sometimes make the pain felt when falling higher as well.

"That's her. Honestly, he's like a crazy person right now." Said the merchant while pointing to a man with a thin body and long black hair because it was unkempt.

"Goddess! Why did you abandon me! Uh! You all! I see the goodness in you! Immediately release me or the Goddess will punish you! Aaaahhh! The goddess! Why?!" The man shouted as he continued to scratch his head.

Reina who saw that scene could only bite her lips and turn her body. His hope was ruined.

He was afraid to think that Dimas might be dead in this world.

But just before Reina left....

"I don't know if this helps, but one of the traders seems interested in criteria similar to yours. Maybe he's bought it here or in another store." Said the Trader.

Reina's eyes opened wide again. While Lucas himself can only see Reina with a look that seemed to feel sorry for him.

"Say! Who her? Where is he? I want to try asking!" Reina said pleading with the merchant.

"It's not free, little girl. Give me 10 gold coins or I won't say anything...."

'Kleetaka!'

Dozens of gold coins were immediately thrown by Reina towards him. Where everything falls on the ground.

"Take all that, but tell me quickly!" Reina.

The merchant could only smile after making a large profit even if only by selling the supposedly free information.

He started picking up the gold coins one by one while bowing his body. Along with that, he began to speak.

"Leos. He was one of the merchants with the sharpest eyes I had ever met. If the guy you're looking for is that smart, he might have bought it just now or maybe a long time ago." Obviously the trader.

"Where is he?!" Ask Reina.

"I don't know for sure, but he's selling potions in a square in the southern part of the city. Maybe you can ask the subordinates directly. Take it easy, in that square he's the only one selling it."

Reina quickly ran towards the mentioned place. Bringing on might be his last hope.

As for Lucas himself, he could only feel sorry for Reina who became like half-crazy.
