We finished dinner in the city of El Valley, where the sun set, and where the number of people going to the city is becoming sparse, we head to our last destination of the day.

A little off the front street and headed to a somewhat suspiciously atmospheric section.

"Come to think of it, it's been quite a while. And coming here."

All I'm on my way is a slave trader I love.

"Um, as far as I know, maybe since I bought Kate in Estea Kingdom?

"Since then, it has been bought mostly by maids."

"You bought it directly from Jen. I'm a happy man"

I bought slaves in the slave traders since I bought the Explorer Apprentice in Estea Kingdom.

Since then, I have had the opportunity to buy slaves, but when there is a proviso that says' in the slave trader ', I go back to Estea.

Selah's right. Since then, all the maids have gone to the slave traders. Saying a slave maid buys a new slave is no longer anything but a routine event.

After delivering Sakura and Dora to the inn, by the way.

A slaver at night isn't a place for girls and kids.

... meditate on the fact that all remaining are women and children. Look, because they're all ex-slaves...

"I came to a land without a corner maid, so it's been a long time since I thought I'd go directly."

The maids are launching the Advanced Chamber of Commerce and spreading their prints.

But it's basically a policy not to get into a country that's not close to me. Therefore, I have no hands on Eldia.

And I'm not even going to an important (...) place where I'm going anytime soon. This one falls within the Crimson Empire or Elf, or the territory of the Demon Nation.

The Elgant Empire is on Eldia's side, and the maids are a no-touch because it is certain that I will be on my way as soon as I destroy Eldia.

"Your husband's going directly means you have a pretty funny daughter. I'm looking forward to it."

"I'm just following Alta's advice, too. I'm looking forward to seeing what he looks like."

Me and Mio don't know what kind of slaves we have because we're fun-focused and dare to seal pre-confirmation by the map. I just got a report from Alta and decided to go directly to the distraction.

Maria and Sella are checking in advance because they value my escorts more than fun, but they don't do anything to deprive me of my pleasure, so I'm talking.

I'm a little concerned Maria looks a little grumpy...

I walked for a while and arrived at the slave trader.

Unlike the upscale slave traders in Estea, this one looks like a regular slave trader, not so pretty.

I went inside and placed an order just like Alta said and waited for the slaves to be brought in.

"These five will be slaves to your needs."

Sit on the couch (this is all there is to it, no matter where you go) and watch the 5 slaves brought in saying so.

When we get here, we'll lift the status check.

Check your status from right to right and your eyes will stop at the third girl.

The girl looked like she was about 7 years old, who made an awesome neighborhood in her eyes, and her orange (orange) colored hair was all she could stretch her blush. And I can see you have the look of giving up everything.

I see......

Name: Rico

LV2

Gender: Female

Age: 15

Race: dwarf (hobbit)

Title: dwarf (hobbit) brave

Skill: < Sealed LV10 > < Inevitable Tragedy (Bind Vision) LV- >

The girl was the brave man of the beast (Maria) and the third local brave man following the brave man of man (Cynthia).

Is local brave only for girls?

dwarf (hobbit) So pah look about 7, but my actual age is 15 so it's not that different from mine.

Anyway, funny thing is, this brave guy has a solid, unique skill while eating < SEALED LV10 >.

< SEALED LV10 > is granted at the same time as the Brave Man is born, and when he has it, his skills below the level of < SEALED > are deactivated, and he is unable to remember his skills anew.

But at the same time that I was born, I assume that I had (...) le (...) le (...) (...) (...) (...) skill is to say that I can't seal it.

"Dear Jen, what she has is the predictive skills I was thinking of acquiring."

That's where Maria told me the story.

I'll check my unique skills.

< Inevitable Tragedy (Bind Vision) >

I can predict a future crisis approaching me and the people around me. Basically unavoidable. However, if someone with more than a certain power over a crisis is involved, that future may twist.

"Oh, I see. Maria looked subtle because the same brave man she was, possessed the predictive skills she wanted."

"!? Did you notice?!?... Yes, I got a little jealous"

Maria can't stop looking at me because she sees my feelings.

"It's a predictive skill specializing in crisis avoidance, so I don't think it's any more silo stuff to protect Jen. I checked with Alta, and Jen seems to be able to twist and bend the future for me as well."

Me and Maria seem to fall into the category of "those with more than a certain power" in the second half.

That's why it seems she should buy it at all costs.

"Right. You wouldn't have the option of saying you wouldn't buy it in many ways."

There will be no place for brave, predictive skills, no reason not to buy them, etc.

That's why I told the clerk to buy the five of us here.

"Are you sure? I'll put up a little price for 5 people...?

"Oh, I don't mind. Get yourself together and bring me here."

"Ha! Immediately"

Said slaves with a corner seller. The clerk hastily begins to support him so that he doesn't miss his chance.

As a matter of fact, these five slaves called on the condition that they had a "sayin ', ill-fated comin'".

By an unsolicited reasoning, wasn't Rico, the brave man with predictive skills, creeped out by those around him by that prediction?

Buy the other four at the same time because they were all rarely skilled there at the same time to mislead their real purpose. Because it wasn't red (enemy) marking later.

Conversely, there is no reason to buy all but these 5 because they are red marked.

After a while, five men were brought in who had been given a proper degree of self-esteem.

I pay the clerk a fee of five and give him a contract.

In the meantime, Rico opened his mouth as if he had been stunned and had not kept up with the situation.

"Why? I was supposed to die without anyone buying me..."

Rico's whining like no one could hear clearly reached my ear.

Exit the slave trader and transfer from the shadows to Castar's mansion with a 'portal'.

Four other people besides Rico were surprised by the 'portal', but only Rico didn't even realize the place had changed in the sky above.

I left the four of us to the maids, and we decided to listen to Rico.

"So when and where were you supposed to die?

"!? Well, why did you...? Are you sure you have a future...?

I'm so surprised you're not interrogating my line, Rico.

"No, I don't know the future. I just know that you have the power to foresee death. Sometimes you think you can't overshadow that future."

Rico's look at giving up, which he considers to be a thing of late, though he has never had his own predictions come off before. No matter how much I see the future of death, I wonder if you have a look like you've given it all up because you've never been able to cover it up.

"Until now... The future could never be changed..."

"But this time, the future of my death has changed, hasn't it?

"... you're right. I was due to be killed late this night by a thief who attacked a slave trader. Whatever I did, I was never going to be bought, and there was nothing I could do to get killed."

Now he asks me with a puzzled look on his face.

Who the hell are you? Is it the use of the goddess? Until now, I resent the goddess who gave me this power... "

You heard something good.

Rico was in the Elgant Empire, but he didn't seem to be a goddess.

of washing... you saved me the trouble of arguing.

For the record, Maria was putting her hand around The Use of the Goddess.

He said he cared too much...

"I have nothing to do with the goddess. Your predicted future can be twisted if you have more than a certain amount of power. Until now, there's just no one around you who can do that."

"Screw bend... can you?

Rico opens his mouth with pocan like he said water in his sleeping ear.

"If you have strong powers, you can reject a future you don't want."

"At last..."

Hearing my words, I was convinced that a small but fighting flame lit inside Rico.

Okay. It's been a while since I've used this line.

"Do you want power? Then follow me."

"Hira...... I want...... It's the one who screws over an unwanted future..."

That's what Rico says. He kneels in front of me, haunting the atmosphere of evil's best friend.

I'm a slave, so I don't have anything to obey, but it's totally different in efficiency to be proactive in swearing allegiance and forcing you to listen as a slave.

Mio had put up with all he could to hold his mouth and stomach and laugh around "Do You Want Power".

Maria and Lucea (who rushed to me when I transferred) were nodding satisfactorily around Rico kneeling.

"It would be good. Then let's unleash the sealed power first."

That said, I lay my hands on Rico's head on my knees and retrieve him.

Mio has too many laughs and tears in his eyes.

"Or the force boils from the back of your body"

Maria and Cynthia didn't seem to feel that different just by removing the seal, but Rico seemed to notice the difference.

< Brave LV3 > < Inevitable Tragedy (Bind Vision) LV- > < Super Sensory (Special Sense) LV3 >

Yeah? Besides the basic skill set, there's another one that looks unique, right?

Super Sense

Five senses sharpen and reflex nerves improve. It also improves processing capacity, so it is not swinging to the five senses that have risen.

Hmmm...... This one was on a level basis, so I guess it was sealed.

Perhaps it was also the effect of this skill that I was able to experience the unsealing.

... That's a hell of a dig to say.

Well, we've had a good chance of touring with digs for a long time.

After checking Rico's status, he decided to listen to Rico.

Rico was born in a small village in the Empire of Elgant and was creeped out from an early age by < Inevitable Tragedy (Bind Vision) >.

As with Maria, the wind was unnecessarily strong because she had been judged unfamiliar because of the < seal >.

He said his father's death was responsible for his decision to be sold as a slave.

Rico, who had lost his mother early, predicted his father's death and ran out of hands knowing that he would be creeped out to try to avoid it. In the end, however, it just couldn't be avoided or even stood up to rumors that the cause of his father's death was not Rico.

The villagers creeped out Rico like that and finally chose to sell him to the slave traders.

Rico says he's not going to make a grudge against the people in the village.

The reason I looked back at myself in the past, and in that situation, I was abandoned and taken for granted.

That's not why they want reconciliation, and they're going to live it apart as a thing of the past.

"I shouldn't have had the power to change the future. Strongly... we have to..."

Rico, finishing the story, groaned so with his strong willed lodged eyes.

Obviously, the flames of the fighting spirit are stronger than before.

Now that I'm done listening to Rico, I'm going to explain what happened to us.

... but I'm going to leave the explanation of the details to the maids.

I'm going to spend some time on Rico's education anyway.

I'm going to educate Rico on our journey after a while.

Cynthia did the same thing, but the local braves have a lot of habits, so you want to let them accompany you for a while to see how it goes.

Exactly, Rico has the ability to be an escort, so it might be a good idea to make it an exclusive escort for Sakya.... Well, Tamo is escorting Sakuya.

Because dwarves (hobbits) are hard to read from their appearance to their age, they wouldn't even look like maids of the right age if they were wearing maid clothes.

That's why we kept an explanation of Rico's abilities and the future.

"Am I the brave man of this world......? If you're a brave man, can you be strong?

"Oh, as far as I know, you can be pretty strong as a resident of this world,"

"Well, I don't mind."

I have not asked for specifics, I have only asked if they are directly linked to 'strength'.

Cynthia is a battle freak against demons, but she also feels things close to it from Rico.

"If I can be strong, I will try to do any training. I don't want to lose a hopeless future."

Apparently, the firewood I put on the flames of the fighting spirit burned harder than I thought. I guess it's good, it's good.

Leave Rico with Lucea and we'll go back to the El Valley Inn.

For once, Rico also plans to be accompanied by a maid of honor, so he will also conduct maid training in parallel.

As for Rico, I don't mind training as a maid, so I said I wanted to do combat training (I think I saw it when Cynthia did), but Lucea intimidated me and made me grow up.

There's no way Lucea's going to let me accompany a guy (maid) who's not well educated.

I'll tell Sakura and Dora that I left a message.

"So don't let a brave man with predictive abilities join the new division."

"Prediction............? That's a great skill..."

Sakura also seems surprised by the sudden emergence of paranormal skills.

"Right. Sounds like you can only predict your own or the human crisis around you, but normally, that's enough. After that, it would be perfect if we had enough power to avoid that prediction."

"Wow!

Maybe Dora doesn't quite understand.

"Nevertheless, your husband, when you made Rico swear allegiance, it was pretty norry, wasn't it?"

Mio laughs at me with Nimanima.

Yeah, I did everything I could.

"Mio, oh, that's the first thing that matters. In that exchange, Mr. Rico should have engraved in his soul that Jen deserved to pledge allegiance. I haven't seen anything good in a long time either."

……

Mio can't seem to comment on Maria, who sounds satisfied either.

That's it. You're convincing to say Maria, who's been a believer almost from the beginning.

For once, Rico hasn't (...) become a believer yet. Why is it still (...) because the last time I saw Rico's eye color was slightly suspicious.

"... Whatever, Rico will be strong. Because it's perfectly consistent with purpose and aptitude."

He wants to be strong enough to twist his destiny down, and he has the ability (skills) to do it. There's no way this isn't going to make you stronger.

Continuing on the eve of the Golden Fox, he could be one of the strongest candidates of the future.

The next morning, when I got out of bed and opened the window, I saw smoke rising from the direction where the slave shop was headed yesterday.

From what I've seen on the map, it looks like the slave shop burned down.

You would say that a thief snuck in late at night like Rico said and eventually lit a fire.

Survival is... not there.

Looks like the killers have already been caught, and I'm guessing the investigation and interrogation are about to begin.

"Ha... is this the result of Rico's predictions? You're powerful inside."

If I hadn't bought it, Rico would have been killed by thieves, too.

Critical Safe......

Probably my burned slaver's last guest.

I decided to leave the city of El Valley altogether because I could get into some useless trouble. The ministers were resurrected thanks to a day off.

El Jaguar...... wrong. I left El Valley, and it's only been a week.

If you think about it as it applies to the map, it would be about time you saw Kanto. Oh, of course I'm talking about the anomaly (map).

It is expected that it will take about three days to reach Kanto by carriage, as the city has been swept away from the city where the first touches have done extra things.

By the way, I've stopped by the city many times over the past week, but never found out who we are.

There are slave traders in every city, but no one was as interesting as El Valley, so I decided to leave the purchase to the maids.

The maids have a good track record of buying slaves (over 5,000).

"In the end, I wouldn't take care of you if you went away and used your time for a short cut through the woods."

"I'm sorry. Neither did I expect the Elgant Empire to come this far with a clear hostility, no intention of killing. Even if it's disgusting, I thought it was something that was good in common sense."

Sakya also seems to have had an unexpected response from the Elgant Empire, and he seems sorry.

At worst, it could be this far, he said, smashing the prediction at his leisure.

"Sakuya isn't bad...?

"Thank you, Sakura. But it's true that I was watching it sweetly..."

Sakuya smiles just a little at the encouragement of Sakura.

"If this is the case, we might as well use inferior Wind Dragon (Wyburn) or something to move the sky in a straight line, or sneak 'portal' down, and the ministers might as well move together."

"It's going to be a lot of trouble..."

The inferior wind dragon (Wyburn) will violate airspace, so it is certain that it will be troublesome.

But......

"If it's troublesome, you don't have to use the inferior wind dragon (Wyburn), it's happening, right?

"... if you ask me, you're right"

It is a troublesome enough situation at the moment, so it is all the more so now.

"At the beginning of the summit story, Sakya said, 'There's a lot of problems poking through the airspace of other countries with elite knights,' but that's weird in the first place"

"What do you mean?

"It's on the side of the Elgant Empire that I called, so I won't let you complain about this means of travel, could you have come with enough strength?

"I'm not your brother, so I can't be that strong on a boulder..."

Sakuya also laughs at my strong remarks.

Actually, if you're telling me to come, I think I should show you the sincerity you deserve.

Like the city of Errim, I don't like handling anything less than shit.

"Hey, what are you gonna do with such weakness when you go to a conference in the Elgant Empire?"

"I'm not going to be weak at the summit, but I'm not going to make enemies for nothing either. No one will be happy if you say something provocative before the meeting."

Personally, I think there's something about showing a strong attitude before the meeting and appealing to my position and claims...

I guess we shouldn't talk too much because we leave the negotiations to Sakya themselves.

"If you're not going to be weak at the meeting, fine."

"It's okay. Leave it to me. Because I have absolutely no intention of drinking conditions that would be detrimental to your brother or to Castar."

"Oh, I'll take care of that. Whatever Sakya says, don't worry, we'll protect you."

"You too, please."

If you say so, make a strong statement in the enemy land. I don't think there's any danger.

It is our job to ensure the safety of Sakya more than to leave the negotiations to Sakya.

Talking about that, the area switched and the Divine Capital of the Elgant Empire could be confirmed on the map.

This time it is sometimes called an escort, and we will not hesitate to confirm the presence of a high level or someone with special skills.

"Buho!?

"Ugh!? What's the matter, master, suddenly you erupt!

Look at me blown out by accident, and Mio raises his weird voice.

"Ah! Right, Map... But what the hell...?

"... I searched for dangerous people."

I immediately guessed why I erupted, Mio, but I supplement it because I didn't seem to know exactly what I was surprised to see.

"I see. Which..."

Not only Mio, but other members seem to be doing the same search.

"I don't know what to say..., that's a lot..."

"There are so many amazing things!

"Yeah, nasty skills. Unnatural title. Blessings (gifts). Have unique skills. I didn't think you'd be here."

"As Jen's escort, we have to raise the alert level."

As we all say, there were too many dangerous and cautious people staying in Elgare, the capital of the Elgant Empire.

That's in the general public, as well as in the royal nobility who came to the summit. More importantly, he's in the Elgant Reich leadership.

If I were to introduce everyone to this, the sun would go down......

"Well, let's just pick up the guy who's likely to be hostile for now"

"Yes, I think the King of the Kingdom of Grants is likely to be hostile, because there was also a carriage raid plan in the Kingdom of Sanokia."

Maria mentioned a man named Zenon, king of the Kingdom of Grants, who supposedly came to participate in the summit.

Sure, this guy sucks no matter what he thinks. The race sucks more than anything, even more militarily.

Title: King of the Kingdom of Grants, First King of the Kingdom of Grants

The Zenon race is human. However, it is marked 'possessor' at the back.

that the age is 9 years. Abnormally high levels and skill levels. "The King of the Kingdom of Grants" and "The First (...) King of the Kingdom of Grants" are both compatible with the title.... and < existential possession (crosssoul) >, a curse mark (curse) you have for some reason.

< Existence Possession (Cross Seoul) >

It can be possessed by the flesh of those whose soul form is near. The initiative of the flesh is held by a man of strong spiritual strength.

In other words, Zenon Grants...... no, I guess the first king of the unknown kingdom of Grants is to say that he has lived and lived for generations on his own descendants.

Speaking of levels and skills seems to impart to the spirit, the soul, not the flesh, and will be taken over even after possession. Otherwise, this skill level is strange.

"Well, I'm pretty sure you're making a lot of noise, even if it's legible."

"Right. Obviously, you wouldn't have any normal sensibilities. Sure, it sounds hostile..."

Mio and I nod at each other.

I don't care what you think. You don't look like a person who's lived a normal life.

It's not a good decision to make, but it's a lineup that makes you wonder who you normally talk to.

Previously, when the story of the Kingdom of Grants came out, a 9-year-old took the throne, citing the possibility of saying, "Because the Demons were in the dark," but that was less likely.

It would also be easy to cede the throne because it can be possessed in person.

Conversely, because of the Four Heavenly Kings curse mark (Curse), which says < Existential Possession (Cross Seoul) >, it became possible that the Demons had been in the dark for a long time.

"You're going to the summit, and there's a chance you won't have to get involved."

"I'm royal, but I'm not a woman, so I won't even touch your brother's harp line."

"Sakya, would you stop saying things like 'If I were a royal woman, I would have subordinated it'...... If we had what we expected, we wouldn't have handed it down to men and women."

"Really?

Sakya's perception of me is terrible.

Admittedly, a number of women's royalty are subordinated, but that includes humanity among its conditions. Any royal woman, I'll never say anything.

Sometimes, like Kristia, the former Princess Eldia, if she had a chance, she wouldn't give it away. It turned out to be Sakya's slave, or my subordinate, but I didn't mind killing him.

"Absolutely. I'm not going to subordinate an overdone guy."

"Oh. Surely your brother only responds to a legitimate opponent,"

"That's what I'm saying."

At the time we met (in my judgment), I had never handed down anyone who had done too much, and I am not going to. Except if you enslave them for silence.

"It's unlikely, but if Zenon is a legitimate guy or doesn't want to be hostile to this one, fine. But if it's clear, directly hostile, I'm going to crush it relentlessly."

"Don't overdo it if you can..."

Sakya says with a face like he gave up half.

"Even though we have high skill levels and stats, we are above that, so I don't think we can lose a simple battle. It's just that they're long lived people. Don't just be alarmed because you don't know what kind of hand you're going to hit."

"We have ministers this time, so maybe we won't go the same way we did before."

As Serra said, the ministers are with us this time that are not subordinate.

Fighting troublesome opponents while protecting them may be tough inside......

"Oh, so during the summit, the maid knight of escort is also going to take the highest level of elite. I've already spoken to Lucea."

"That's right, my lord, you're not out of line."

Naturally, among the maid knights there is also an increase or decrease in strength.

I would like to take the highest level of maid knights with me during the summit and keep the escorts of the ministers in full condition.

... Totally, the summit treated us as enemies.
