Heavenly Castle

View of the slave trade

On the back of the store were the children, as well as the figure of Leticia washing dirty clothes.

The kids hang their washed clothes around on a dry pole laughing at each other, and Leticia reprimands the kids playing in the laundry.

Gray looked around bewildered by a peaceful sight that he didn't think was behind the slave shop.

Then, one by one, left and right, I notice Tyke's robot standing.

"Golem......! That's not flying..."

The girl, who was a clerk, called Leticia out loud as Gray grumbled so dewfully about her vigilance.

"Mr. Leticia! Can I have a word with you?

As Leticia turns to that voice, she notices Gray's presence and tilts her neck slightly.

"Oh? Is it a customer?

Gray subtly changed her expression as Leticia shrugged so and walked over wiping her wet hands with the apron hem.

"Mr. Leticia. This one wants to ask you about the treatment of slaves. And about the people who work here."

"About slaves? Merchants are better than I explain…"

"Well, please! Bye!"

Telling confused Leticia and Gray that quickly, the girl just went back to the store. Besides, Leticia sighs with a troubled face and looks at Gray.

"They say you shouldn't be on the table... I'm sorry, sir. I'm here to help you with your back job, my name is Leticia."

When he bowed his head as he greeted him, Gray took a breath when he saw Leticia's face.

"... I'm Gray, the one who says, You are... why are you being such a pussy here... yes, no, it was a bad word..."

Leticia smiles bitterly after looking strange at Gray, who gets all twisted up.

"I was a slave once. You can't go wrong with your youngest daughter. However, I am enjoying excessive treatment…"

When she said that and smiled, Leticia palmed in front of herself.

"Come on, it was about slaves and us, right? Let me talk to you to the best of my knowledge, while not extending."

So cut out, Leticia told us about her previous history and the contents of her new slave contract. And maybe how this store could have done it.

Grey, conceived to hear and inquisite them, uttered words of doubt to squeeze them out.

"... where is the assurance that whoever made that pact, the finest slave, is really being treated as that pact"

A word, so mouthed, Leticia made a small vertical wrinkle between her brows and mumbled her mouth.

Gray narrows his eyes to the reaction and goes on with the words.

"Indeed, I guess those who work in this store live a privileged life, whether they are slaves or not. But isn't that the case until someone leaves this store...?

At the time Gray said that, a tall electronic sound rang from somewhere.

"Hey, what!? Is that from those golems!?

Leticia joins hands in front of her chest and raises her voice to Gray staring at Tyke's robot as she reflects back.

"That's a signal that I received something called a rescue signal from someone who was sold as a slave. I don't know how it works, but when someone broke the contract, I heard that noise."

When I tell him that, Gray blinks.

"Kew, rescue signal...?

He was a grey roaring at the word he cared about, but when he saw Leticia raise her voice, he turned to her face at the end of his gaze.

"Oh, look. Here."

"Mm, no way, really emptying...!

Ahead of what the two of them saw, there was a sight of exactly one robot starting to float.

Looking up at the robot flying into the sky, Gray was making his eyes black and white, but he immediately frowned and tongued.

"Damn it! I didn't know you'd be stunned...!

He yelled, and ran out. Leticia makes sure she can no longer see Gray's back as she ran away, blinking her eyes.

"... you don't seem like a bad person, but you seem highly presumptuous"

That's all she whined about, Leticia looked at the kids and started panicking.

"Ah! Everybody, where are you going...!?

Leticia looks around when she realizes that the children who were supposed to be drying the laundry are disappearing.

And he caught his eyes when he saw the kids running feather-woven with the laundry he'd just washed like a cape.
