After Ryouma was summoned to a different world, three days have passed . The time right now is around noon . Ryouma was walking along the highway toward Aru . Today Ryouma was a little late at waking up, after taking breakfast, he had gone to the blacksmith store to take his weapon . (A thieves group huh . . . I hope we don't meet . . . )
Ryouma then look back the time he went to the guild to receive quest before he takes the journey to Aru .
"Now! For those who have experience and skills do try to take these request quest!"
The young man and Giltz-san the man who's at the receptionist counter yesterday called people loudly in front of the bulletin board inside the guild . Ryouma then tried to get into the crowd and take a look at the paper hanging on the bulletin board . ----------------------------------------Statement----------------------------------------
The formation of a unit party to subjugate thieves group the [Red Moon] that appear on the highway and villages between Aru and Melveren .
Objective: Total extermination of the [Red Moon group] Be sure to capture or kill everyone .
Reward: The reward is 50 . 000 Baht for one of their member . There are eight members confirmed . However, other than the eight members, we decide that we will also pay 50 . 000 Baht if we acknowledge that they are a member of the group . As for the treasures that the thieves group held, it will be regarded as the subjugation party side income (you may have it) The achievement value clear point, an amount of 50 will be given to all member of the subjugation party .
Period: It shall be done within half a month after the settlement and formation of the subjugation party .
Application Requirements: The person must possess ability not less than single F rank . A soldier or someone who deal with law enforcement (with any other name) will be approved .
A mercenary experience (or even an adventurer with sufficient battle experience) . The number of people needed: Six people .
Individuals who have the experience and expertise of Searching and Investigation ability (Adventurers, Soldiers, and Mercenaries are allowed as long as they have the stated experience) *Those who have a combat ability will be given priority . The number of people needed: Four people .
"Oi, look at that 50 . 000 Baht for one! That would be 400 . 000 Baht for eight people! And also we can take their treasures as well!"
"Uwaaah . The guild make a great splurge eh?"
"I guess they can't help it, you know? Since Graez seems to have failed after all . . . Even the guild have their own face and honor yeah?"
"What!? 『The rock smasher』 Graez?!"
"That's right . He seems to have to take down another thieves group instead . "
"Ha! Did the person goes to subjugate without doing investigating first? . How stupid . . . Well if its that person I guess it can't be helped! The person might be strong, but he lacks a brain . "
"Oi oi . If Graez heard you, your neck would roll, you know?"
"Wups . . . My mouth slipped . "
The people in around his surrounding seem to be mercenaries and adventurers as well . (I guess Graez-san has a hard time huh . He does not look like a bad person though . . . ) Ryouma went into the guild while listening to the men's heartless criticism .
"I'm very sorry, but all the delivery request quest from Melveren to Aru have been suspended . There's also some urgent delivery quest and others; however, it was only for those who has single E rank or higher; thus I cannot introduce them to Mikoshiba-san . "
The woman who is at the reception desk told Ryouma and bowed her head .
"Is it because of the thieves group in question?"
"Indeed . Because of the previous failure, the guild lost its prestige . . . The feudal lord and garrisons guard also have been complaining . . . Ah! I-I'm sorry . Please forget what I had said just now . "
"No no, it's fine . Well with that being the case, is there something that I can accept?"
"Hmm let see . There's three kind of subjugation quest for I rank, and also subjugation quests for H rank . That is what available . "
"If the rank of the person who receives the quest of I rank is higher, then the achievement value clear point will be 0 but the reward will be double, is that right?"
"Yes . That exactly right . "
"Well, how about the time limit?"
"There's no time limit for subjugation request quest bellow B rank, you know?"
"Oh, is that so?"
"Indeed . That's why, like this, it would be a lot better to receive subjugation bellow B rank, see?"
"If that is the case, I would like to take all the subjugation quest that can be accepted by single H rank . "
"I understand . Then please take a look at these . "
She then presented a book .
"This is?"
"It contains the list of the target name of subjugation quest that can be taken by single H rank, the amount of reward, and also the place they made as habitat . 20 quests can be taken by single H rank . Since it would be hard to explain everything verbally, it is my job to gives this catalog for first time H rankers . Please read it carefully . "
"Haa . . . I understood . "
The only salvation from this is that it was not so thick . (Does everything has to changes so much just by one rank?)
"Well then, since the quest will be registered to the personal card, the procedure ends here . Thank you very much . "
When the miss receptionist said so, he lowered his head . Ryouma then left the guild while carrying a book and a card handed over to him .
Currently, it has been 2 hours since he left Melveren town . On the highway passed a very thick forest . It is not a problem to walk passing the road since the width can be used for three carriages to pass each other, however, when one's turn their eyes to the side, there are only thick trees . Since the high trees were blocking the sunlight, the road light is dim . Furthermore, there's also the threat of the thieves group . Even though this is a highway, no one walk pass it . And currently, only Mikoshiba Ryouma walking through it . (Oi oi . . . Somehow, I have a bad feeling about this . . . ) A road that being surrounded by dark forest . It is a perfect place to lie down for an ambush . And naturally, it's also a good place for thieves to attack . (Well, I guess, it would be fine though . . . ) Ryouma decided to go to Aru because he constantly reminded by the pursuers . He wants to cross the border as soon as possible .
However, such expectation crumbled away due to a scream coming from a woman .
"Kyaaaaa!"
"Shut up! Be quiet bitch!"
"No!! Let me go!"
"Behave yourself!"
Just right at the place where the road turns a sharp right . Ryoma's eyes cannot see what had happened . Ryouma began to run toward the voice . Then, when he arrived at the big trees at the corner, he stopped and peeped through the trees . There is a carriage that being attacked by several men, and also there are two girls .
"Kukuku, Today as well, it's a great catch . Oi, It seems like luck have been on our side lately, doesn't it?"
"Agreed . Yesterday we also got a lot from the villages . "
"Their woman also not so bad for a rural village . In the first place, we don't get any turn at all . . . "
"Well, that can be helped . . . The price to sell them will be quite high if they are not yet being violated . "
"I also already get tired of only enjoying a middle-aged woman, you know? And I guess, young ones has finally come by . . . "
He pointed to the girls that his company catch .
"Hahaha . Time to enjoy!"
"Oi! Don't put your hands on products . We would get killed by the boss, you know?"
A man holding a blonde girl told his comrade .
"But you know . This is a very high-quality goods, see?"
A man holding a silver girl retorted .
"Do you think so too? And also . Aren't goods from this carriages enough for our quotas?"
A man who appeared from inside the carriage uttered such words . And then voices of approvals can be heard from here and there . Suppressing them isn't effective due to the girls' beauty that is in front of them .
"If you touch us, we will bite our tongue!"
Being unable to listen to the men's words, the silver-haired girl yelled . However, those men's only smiled at them .
"Ha! We know you guys are slaves and due to the collar, you won't be able to commit suicide nor resist us!"
The girls face grew pale . They did not think that the thieves would know about it . As the man says, the collar has the power to obstructs their behavior . Suicide and rebelled are things that slaves not allowed to do .
"But still, well, just in case . Oi, its fine to do them while still wearing the clothes . "
"S-Stop . Let me go!"
The girl desperately tried to free herself from the men's hands, however, due to the difference in strength she's unable to do so .
"Oi! If you don't behave yourselves, I won't be responsible if something were to happen to the other girl, see?"
The silver hair girl who resisted got quiet immediately after seeing the other girl has a sword on her neck .
"But still, your master is really cruel isn't it? To think that he escape and save only his own self while leaving you both . "
A man who made the threat to the silver girl began ridiculing her .
"Gates yo~ . Isn't that obvious? After all, he had his life being targeted by the [Red Moon group], you know?"
"True that!"
A man called Gate raise a laughter .
"Oi! Look at this . With this getting five million Bahts would be easy!"
A man wearing a hood said while carrying an item .
"Uoooh . I can't believe it . There's really five million baht . . . "
"Is this all gold coins?"
Other than boxes full of items such as miscellaneous goods, costumes, jewelry items, there is one box filled with coins . Almost all the inside are gold coins . Seeing that, the men's faces become indecent .
"Hei, with this much loots, there won't be a problem if we get the girls don't you think?"
"Oi . I think so too . . . Jewelry and Gold coins . There are a lot of it . I won't even mind if I get to do it last . "
"But, if the boss were to find out . . . "
To the man who shows a worried expression, Gates declared with distorted smiles on his face,
"What are you saying . Would it be okay if we can deal with both of them after we violate them? Besides, no one knows that there are girls among the spoils except us, see?"
Hearing Gates words, disgusting laughter come out from the men's mouth .
(One, the, there . . . seven people huh?)
The men are 10 meters from the trees . The men's clothing is not so different compared to mercenaries or adventurer that he was at the guild . They wear armors and weapons . However, when it come to their face, only one word can describe them, and that is predators . Hurting, Killing, Steal, and Rape . They also have the confidence that they are strong people . On their face, there looks like a shadow . (Such ugly appearance . . . ) In his sixteen years of life, Ryouma had never seen such ugly distorted face such as these . (What should I do? Should I help them? . . . but, It would cause me a lot of trouble to involve myself here . . . ) Ryouma hesitated . (Whether or not I help those girls, there might not be anything bad happen . However, Something might happen . . . If I were to help them, I have to kill all of them, if there is just one person manage to escape, the person might come back with reinforcement . Can I do this? With this distance, I have no countermeasures if the girls were being used as a shield . )
A reason to help . And a reason to not help . His own personal security . His own justice . The empire pursuers . Several elements appear on his mind . Then toward the brooding Ryouma, Gates vulgar words entered his ears . Anger and murderous intent appear on Ryouma face . (What am I worrying about . Is there even a reason to let these people alive?) Such honest feeling . (Is it alright for me to let these guys do as they please and return to my previous world? Can I live with that?) He who had been summoned to this world forcibly, want to go back to his world by all means necessary . If he can return to his world in exchange of the entire population of this country, he thinks he would make the trade . However, even so, letting girls in front of his eyes getting raped and killed while staying silent, he thought that he wouldn't be satisfied . (Both my hands have already stained with blood . And I do not believe that it is bad in particular . getting dragged into this world forcibly, the lives of those who fight against me to the death feels like garbage to me . If there were people who are going to criticize me when I return, I could confidently say, "I killed them out of necessity!" , However, if I were to leave these girls, will I be able to say the same? That would be impossible! I don't care about others, but I definitely won't be able to forgive myself for it . ) Ryouma who can be ruthless and cold is by nature, a good person . Your ordinary man with common sense and a normal sense of justice . The only difference between him and the general public would be his resolution . Being resolute to kill his opponent and see through his justice, that might be the only difference . Ryouma then grabs the chakrams from the bag and sneaked inside the forest to make a surprise attack . Due to the sheer number of people, if the surprise attack fails, it would be disadvantageous for him . And furthermore, he did not hide his face this time . If one were to manage to escape, reinforcement might come and try to take revenge . (I guess it can't be helped, to raise the probability for this to success . . . let me apologize beforehand)
