A few days after we left for the Kingdom of Estalia.

We are entering the Kingdom of Estalia within the morning, and in the evening we will have to look for accommodation. I don't mind the camp, but I try to avoid the camp if possible as a result of being concerned because there are more women.

If you look, it's about a small town.

Oh, there it is.

Walking along the street, I found the town just far away.

But at the same time, I witnessed the appearance of the suspicious.

"Bandit, is it?

Melissa shrugged hating the bandits from past events.

There are three carriages running toward town, but there's a group of people chasing the carriage on horseback.

From the speed at which the carriage runs, it is not meant to be a companion.

They were desperately running away from the horses coming after them from behind.

"Well, what do we do?

Ask your people.

The carriage apparently had an escort on board, and a bow and arrow can be fired from behind the carriage.

But those who appear to be bandits skillfully manipulate the horses to avoid them, and for arrows that cannot be avoided, they are prevented by a gauntlet worn on their arms.

I'm kind of used to it.

It's none of our business if we leave them like this, but they're not sleeping well when they see a corpse exposed to more than they've seen.

Usually I avoid noticeable imitation, but this time I will act as a priority to stand out due to circumstances.

"It's only doomed."

Melissa responds instantly.

I didn't even have to ask.

Shortly after, Melissa disappears.

"That idiot......!

[Leap (Warp)] was used to travel to the front of the bandits to protect the escaping carriage.

I'm usually a sober Melissa, but only when the bandit is the other person does it lose forgiveness and become emotional.

"We're coming, too."

"I have no choice."

"Yeah, yeah."

Given Melissa's status, it wouldn't be like putting a bandit behind you, just in case.

Besides, there is always a labyrinth lord in the Kingdom of Estalia.

We need to move assuming the worst.

"What themee......!

"Where the hell did you come from?!?

Just like Melissa, when we [jumped], we were also seen with the eyes of the suspicious from the bandits who were stopping the horse's leg.

A person who suddenly appeared.

Naturally, I can't help but be vigilant.

Appearing suddenly to it, Melissa was so beautiful that she could easily give up the prey she was chasing.

"Become, you guys......!

A man can be heard from the carriage.

The man who was shooting bows and arrows to get rid of the bandits.

Turning around, he stopped moving with his hands on his bow.

"We'll take care of these guys."

The number of bandits is twenty.

Looks like they have quite a size.

"Well... you'll tell me"

A man who was in the lead among the bandits reacted to my word "handle".

"Hehe, your head. There are four women here."

"Besides, they're all upper-balls."

"I don't know if I can sell a fox woman."

Hahaha, and laughing bandits.

When I heard the words, I was stronger and stronger to hold Noel's scepter. It didn't mean that Noel was a scrupulous worker, it was simply assumed to be less valuable because he was a furry hated beast. In the Esterian kingdom with a strong electorate ideology, beastmen are only worthy to the extent that they are disposable even in slavery.

"So-so calm down"

"But..."

I can desperately forgive you for not making me grumpy.

It's because I won't let anything happen that I can't take back because I'm angry.

"You know, Melissa."

"Absolutely."

Melissa, who was here first, comes forward.

You seem to understand that even if you're angry, you have to make it your top priority.

"Are you bandits?"

"Am I right? Then what's wrong?!

"No, if you attack people who are not bandits, you will be blamed for the opposite, until you confirm."

"Don't worry about that, miss. You're going to spend the rest of your life as a comforter when we catch you. Or they'll be sold off as slaves, I guess. If you're as pretty as you are, you'll get a lot of money."

Bandits laughing out about what's funny.

To be clear, the bandits are the same as the miscellaneous fish.

Because I don't know who Melissa's killer is anymore.

"That's enough."

Twenty blasting spheres of bees and electric shocks are created around Melissa.

Just the same number as the bandits.

"I'm not going to have mercy on anyone who doesn't care about others like you do."

"... Huh!? Everybody, run!

"It's late!"

The sphere flies towards the bandits.

The bandits run their horses and try to avoid them. but the horse can't possibly swirl quickly and strikes directly.

"Bye!"

"Damn!"

A bandit directly hit by a sphere falls off a horse.

I get hurt when I fall, but fortunately I'm alive... no, Melissa is magically helping me out about the bandits who fell the way they were likely to be fatally wounded.

Still, they're all just paralyzed.

"The magic that paralyzes the opponent...!? Our level makes us resistant to magic! Yet you can't possibly be stunned by the magic blow you unleashed with no chant! You guys, don't ever hit me straight!

'Yes!!

The leader of the bandit escapes Melissa's magic and screams as she masterfully manipulates the horse. He shouldn't be able to afford it that much either, but he needed to give instructions to his men.

But...

"Yikes!!

"Ugh..."

One, another, takes a direct hit and falls off the horse.

With Melissa's magic, it becomes impossible to even be on a horse.

"Damn......"

When I realized it, I was only a leader.

The technique of manipulating a horse was considerable and he was able to escape to the end.

Nevertheless, I can't do anything by myself.

"Heh, I can't believe you didn't kill us being bandits, sweetheart."

The leader gets off the horse laughing.

I've already decided to win or lose.

"Sweet? What am I mistaken for?

"What?"

The leader thought Melissa had mercy from the heart of mercy.

Unfortunately, Melissa has no mercy for the bandits. He declares at the outset that he "does not intend to have mercy".

"There's only one thing I need to do. Where is your Azito?

Coldly speak to the leader of the bandit.

"Well, what are you going to do when you hear that!?

"Whatever. I'll take all the treasures you're accumulating in Asia."

If you crusade a bandit, your rights will be transferred to the crusader for the treasures owned by the bandit.

If the general public wants to take back those who have been robbed by bandits, they will have to buy them back from those who crusaded them.

"Oh, you can't tell me...!

The leader screams in a frightened manner.

We can't give away our own accumulated treasure, for some reason. but there was also the fear that if we were used to tell us more about the location of Azit, we would be disposed of.

That's all Melissa is afraid of right now.

"Rest assured. Just because I told you where Ajito is, I'm not going to imitate it like I'm going to dispose of it with our hands."

Ho, the bandits exhaling in peace.

But the moment I heard the next word, I was slapped to hell.

"I ask you all to work as slaves."

"Slave?"

"That's right. There's no way you're going to imitate it."

They are bandits - criminals.

Bring it to the slave traders and they can sell it off as a labor force.

If you detain a bandit, it occurs to the person whose ownership they detain.

Whatever it is, it's Melissa's freedom.

"Don't be ridiculous!

"It's good to catch people and sell them off, it's not good for us to be sold off, is it..."

Melissa's interest is no longer in the bandits.

I've been more concerned about it than that.
