The sun rose along with the disappearance of the figure, Zen was confused why he returned to the mountain, and who the figure he had just seen.
A little while later, Zen decided to leave the place, and Zen came down from the mountain and walked far west. When Zen was far enough away, he finally arrived at a city that was quite crowded and the population was very friendly
"It looks like I can buy some food for the preparation of the next trip" Zen said as he walked to see the goods sold in the city
"It looks like there's selling some good stuff. I'd better take a look" Zen said in his heart.
Zen walked to the merchandise store and saw what was sold in the store, Zen saw a bag that was suitable for filling some supplies
"Uncle, how much does that bag cost??" Ask Zen
The seller's uncle answered Zen's questions kindly.
"The price is 10 silver coins" he said
"7 silver coins how's uncle??" Ask Zen
"Can't be the cheapest 9." Said the seller's uncle
"8 uncle" said Zen, pleading
"Can't be. 9 silver coins are already the cheapest.." Obviously the Uncle
Zen was a little sad
"Well.. I only have 8 silver coins uncle." Zen
The uncle of the seller was silent for a while like thinking of something, suddenly the uncle also sold a leather bag that Zen wanted to Zen for 8 silver coins.
"Ah.. Alright.. Don't tell me who it is.." Said Uncle seller
"Okay uncle" Zen said
Zen was a little happy, because he could buy the leather bag he wanted, Zen also paid 8 silver coins for a leather bag that was quite neatly made
"There are many uncles.." Zen said as he walked away from the uncle's shop
"Good way young man!." Shouted the seller's uncle from a distance
"Huh I profit 2 silver.. I have 50 silver coins. I'm sorry uncle, I need to save" Zen said in his heart
"I'd better explore this city, it looks like there will be a new experience that I will experience" Zen began to walk around the city that is quite large
"Beautiful city is crowded too, do I have to stay here?, If I stay I can at least spend 10 silver coins and if I don't stay over I'll have a hard time resting quietly.."
"Hm..." Zen also thought seriously about it in order to get the best solution
When Zen is thinking. Suddenly there was a horse carriage carrying some children to a place, 3 girls who had some punched scars on their cheeks and arms. Zen realized that and he stalked the carriage.
"Are they kidnapped?, why don't they scream? Though here is quite crowded, if he screams there must be someone who helps him. There seems to be another reason, I'd better follow the carriage" Zen said in his heart
Zen followed the train somewhere
It turned out that the train was heading to some empty houses like an already uninhabited village.
"Hey down!" The man who brought the three women
The three women went down and did not fight for fear
"Go there and work!" Shake the man
The man also entered a house that seemed to have been made to watch the slaves brought in so as not to escape from the small uninhabited village
"It seems like something bad is going on. What am I supposed to do? Hm.." Confused Zen
Moments later, Zen gets a brilliant idea to disguise himself
"I would rather go undercover in order to get more solid information to prove that they were kidnapped and enslaved" Zen said in his heart
But Zen was still confused, how he did not seem to be disguised by the man
Zen saw a mud next to him and came up with a brilliant idea
Zen hit his own face and arm and he took the mud and made his clothes dirty to look like the villagers were thrown away
"It seems like enough." Zen also walked and acted in pain walking to the village while asking for help
"Year-ng... Whosoever.. Please a-" Zen also pretended to faint in the middle of the uninhabited village and a woman saw him.
"Sister!! Wake up!.." Say that woman
"Sister? I think I've heard this voice. I still have to pretend to faint so as not to be caught" Zen said in his heart
"Sister!!" Suddenly the man who kidnapped the 3 girls appeared and saw Zen who was lying limp
"Woi's awake!" The man commands while kicking Zen
"Wake up! Wake up!!" The man did not stop kicking Zen
"Stop!! Please let me take care of her!" Say that woman
"Tch do as you please! Don't forget the work you have to do!!" Say that man
The woman entered the house and called her friend
"Hey guys can you help me for a second??" Ask the Woman
"What help??" Answer his female friend
"It looks like my acting worked" Zen said inwardly
The woman returned to Zen's place
"Help me bring this brother into my room, I want to take care of him." Obviously that woman
"All right.." Answer his friend simultaneously
They also brought Zen into the room when he arrived in the Zen room was placed on the floor of an empty room
"Thank you, my friend helped me." Say that woman
"Yes the same" His friend left him and returned to where they worked
"Not awake..." Zen did not react
"It looks like the injuries in nature are painful. I'll be back brother.. Be patient until I finish my job." Say that woman
She left Zen and went to her friend's place
#Time skips
"Hoam... I'm falling asleep." Zen said in his heart and woke up from his sleep
A woman opened the door of Zen's room
"Sister!! Brother is conscious? Is my brother okay??" Said the woman as she approached Zen
Zen also looked at the woman and Zen was a little surprised, it turned out that the woman was Liana, Veliona's sister
"Liana why are you here??" Ask Zen
Liana was silent for a moment, and began to tell the chronology of the incident
#Time skips
"So you were kidnapped at midnight in the village yesterday and made a slave until now? What did they do to you?" Ask Zen
"They just forced us to make a nice decoration, and sew beautiful clothes, for them to sell." Answer Liana
Liana: "But yesterday there were some nobles who came and bought the people and goods that were here. Liana doesn't know what's going on next." Obviously Liana
"It turns out not only forced to make decorations and clothes, they will even be sold to the nobility." Zen in the heart
Liana suddenly cried
"Eh, Liana why??" Confused Zen
"Liana was just scared.. There will be something bad about Liana, Liana is afraid of not being able to see Veliona again." Liana said while crying
"Look, I'll make sure you're safe and bring you back.." Zen
"Yes Zen?" Said Liana who was still a little crying.
"Yes right, believe me. I will definitely take you away from here, no matter what" Zen said as he approached and wiped his tears.
Zen also looked at the contents of the room, and was confused, why there was no bathroom. Zen asked Liana again
"Liana is there a place to take a shower??" Ask Zen
"There's brother.." Answer Liana
Zen was taken to a well
"Here brother, we bathe here.." Obviously Liana
Zen was a little shocked and upset, because it turned out that all this time, all the women who were kidnapped and brought here, became a spectacle material when they took a shower
Zen also looked at a house entered by the man before, and he saw that the man was laughing with his friend.
Zen was still holding back his emotions and decided to take a bath at the well
"alright.. Thanks Liana.. Then I'll take a shower first.." Zen
"Good brother.. Then I'll go clean the room for Zen's sis' bed." Liana said
"Thank you again, Liana.. Sorry to bother." Zen
Liana went back to the room
Zen undressed, wearing only his pants and bathing at the same time as the wounds on his body that instantly recovered
(Wosh wosh)
A friend of Liana who heard the sound of water and was curious about where the sound of water came from.
He came out and saw Zen who was bathing and his body that had slash wounds on his back
The woman was silent to see Zen who had such a wound
Zen also felt that someone was peeping at him and he looked back, it turned out that there was nobody.
Shortly before Zen saw the Woman, he first hid and immediately returned to his room
After the bath, Zen returned to Liana's room
"Sister Zen, please rest.." Liana said politely
"Still Liana" Zen said
Zen fell asleep on the mattress that had been cleaned by Liana, while Liana continued her painting
"You're good at painting liana.. Your painting is very nice." Zen said in praise
"Eh, too, brother.." Liana said
"Sorry brother, I'll be done soon.." Liana said
"So go ahead, I'll go to bed first.." Zen went to sleep, a few moments later Liana who had finished also went to sleep
#Time skips
The morning arrived
Zen and Liana were cleaning the room
Arrived at the man who kicked Zen earlier
"Hey boy! Here you! Follow me!" Yells
"Me??.." Ask Zen
"Yes you! Here!" Shake the man hard
"Ba-good!.." Zen also follows the wishes of the person
and they went into the forest.
"Start now! You will be cutting down trees here! Don't intend to escape! You won't be able to run away from us!" Shake the man
"Ba-good!..." Zen cut down trees in the forest
And the man left her
"Huh.. My acting is still going according to plan to this day.. I will continue to carry out my plan so as not to make big trouble" Zen said in his heart
"What happened at the academy?? Hopefully nothing bad happens in the academy." Zen said while cutting down trees
Seriate...
