"Sir Silvius, it's time for a change"

A woman with her hair cut short calls me. [M]

She wears a tight white jacket and trousers, the uniform of the Kingsguard knight of the Ifestio Empire, Misha von Rondert.

One of the few female knights in the Ifestio Empire.

"Got it. The details of the handover are summarized in the report.

Nothing in particular. "

When I give her the report, I salute the Empress in the same room and try to get out of the room.

"This. Silvius.

What are you gonna do today?

I thought a little about the Empress.

"Take a bath, I'll go to bed"

"It's not even noon yet.

Anything to go play with or buy out to the market?

"Because I don't feel particularly necessary"

When I closed the door to the room, I saw the Empress sighing boringly.

Leaving the room leads to a marble hallway.

The decoration of the walls is more vivid than the Imperial Theatre and the building itself is like a work of art.

Three months have passed since I dropped off Blade and Kukri returning to Sowen, and now I am in charge of the Queen's Kingsguard.

'Uh, I've been abroad for a while and I don't know anything about homhomme since I started living in the empire.

Somebody in three lines. "

[◆ Physical Education Professor]

"Protect the Empress from the assassins.

Appointed knight as a reward.

I also got my last name. 'Cruz to Silvius' is my current name.

△*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:△

Few people call me Cruz now. [M]

Everyone around the Empress calls it Silvius.

Called Cruz, my routine changed so much that I could miss when I was traveling.

And the present days are monotonous.

The Empress was attacked only once when I was a diner.

It happened to be when the Empress summoned me and I was in the garden.

I was acclaimed for instantly defeating five men with swords and gained this identity, but since then I don't remember doing anything in particular enough to follow the queen's whereabouts or give other Kingsguard knights martial arts guides.

Honestly, it's a job that doesn't require sword arms at all.

"I'm watching. I'm not pinching either.

No adoration, no burning if they show you your grandmother's routine. '

[No name even if reincarnated]

"I figured we'd join the whole Farkas.

If you want to take advantage of that beauty, that's it.

Elle, Falcus, I'm not tired of watching. "

△*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:△

That's not how it works.

Quitting the Kingsguard knight is against the Empress's name.

I won't be able to live in the empire.

Besides, the pay is good.

For when you find something to do, there's no harm in keeping your current job.

'Tiny and clumpy...

Oh, I would have enjoyed it if I'd at least managed with Merliah. '

△*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:△

Meliá is now preparing for the Millennium Festival of the Founding of the Ifestio Empire, commonly known as the Millennium Festival, which will take place nearby under the life of the Empress.

Though awake in a separate house in the Rollingen family, he runs around day and night and barely sees each other.

The last time I saw him was a week ago.

It was when the Empress and I went to inspect the production site of the statue of her ancestor, Justiel, to be unveiled at the Millennium Festival.

Even then, the conversation ended without being possible.

▽*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:▽

"It's a shame that the first three months of dating are the most fun."

[No name even if reincarnated]

"Go crawl at night already! Build a fait accompli!

△*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:△

I don't want to interrupt Meliá's work.

It's an opportunity for Meliá, who was in the shade, to stand up.

If we're going to live in this country for decades to come, that must be important.

I think it's a priority over being with me for only a year.

When I murmured so in my heart, the fairies shut up.

Leaving the rear palace, I head to my home under the castle.

I noticed a lot of different types of humans walking around on that road that I don't normally see.

Many of the inhabitants of Imperial Capital are people who work against the country and nobility, have stable incomes and lives, and dress beautifully, young and old.

So the rough guy wearing protective gear such as used leather armor and breastplate really catches my eye.

▽*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:▽

[No name even if reincarnated]

'Don't worry about something.

Let's just keep up!

[No name even if reincarnated]

'Agreed. That's good, right?

△*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:△

I don't mind.

Because there's nothing else to do.

It was the square in the back alley of the Imperial capital that I arrived at as the rough wind men followed the flow going on.

The crowds gathering are not only rough, but also mixed with merchants who seem to have good wings.

Not so much as a slum, but whether it's undergoing an additional renovation that ignores zoning, it's a strangely garbage area, and the mansion is surrounded by more than three floors of buildings with a sense of obstruction.

Behind the square is a wooden platform about 3 meters high.

And there's a tent lined up next to the table.

"How's the purchase going today?

"It's better here these days. Come on.

Nevertheless, compared to before Eisenburg fell. "

"Eisenburg. If General Iscarios comes out, you can take it back."

"Baca. That's Santa Monia City, isn't it?

There's no way you can do that. "

"Santa Monia products taste good, don't they?

It's hard to rot. "

"Different. Imperial ones are perishable.

Xandir isn't bad either, but his preferences are divided.

Sauen sucks.

It's poison... no, it's explosives. "

"Are you still a domestic today?

Then I'd at least like the secluded one.

They don't like the smell of slums. "

"Oh, but I hear Santa Monia's coming out today, too.

I heard rumors. "

"Seriously! Somebody lend me a hundred tiers!

... I see.

Summarizing the information gathered, this looks like an occasional city.

It seems like food because of the taste...

Oddly the price range is high.

Thiel is a monetary unit used in the empire, but when it comes to 100 Thiel, it should be just an amount of money for five working class families to live in for a year.

How many luxury ingredients will come out if that is the amount to be spent on a single product?

▽*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:▽

[No name even if reincarnated]

'Somehow... but I don't feel as peaceful a scene as Homhom thinks'

[No name even if reincarnated]

'Right. I think so too.'

[No name even if reincarnated]

"Homhom.

Let's talk about something other than conversation.

You got a bunch of customers, this place, everything. '

△*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:△

As I listen to the fairy, a flashy bearded man appears on a platform set up in the square and begins on the front porch.

The men gathered are listening to him. I don't have a sleigh, but I can tell that the gaze is poured on the table.

"Then one item of the day!

I'm from Santa Monia!

Age is fourteen.

No sickness or injury, and some healers ink!

Besides, it's unused!

As the bearded man shouted to the surrounding human being, a girl came out of the next tent wrapped her cloth cut around her body.

I have makeup on my face but my skin and hair are terribly rough.

It can be seen that the bath is grated and not given a variety of meals.

At least there's no girl in Imperial City who looks like that.

cheering and whistling nonetheless.

▽*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:▽

[No name even if reincarnated]

"Oh, I knew it"

△*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:△

After all, what does that mean?

'This is more of an auction venue for human trafficking for prostitution than a slave city...

It's the only way to focus on new or used without saying anything about Uri as a workforce '

[◆ Baron Eguchi]

'I don't know if it's illegal, but it doesn't really feel like I'm doing it on my own.

I guess it's because the rough guys are undertaking a proxy for the purchase of nobles and merchants who care about the public.

Human trafficking in our world is also rarely traded directly by buyers.

Anti-social forces like the Mafia and Yakuza take the place of purchases, make up registrations, adopt with breathtaking ordinary people and then put them out to daughter-in-law, and launder buyers to avoid dyeing their hands at human trafficking as much as possible. '

[No name even if reincarnated]

"What the... Dark Knowledge Behind"

△*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:△

Trafficking in human beings...... are you selling human beings as things?

I see, I don't have the edge.

I don't need to keep a slave, and I don't know how to handle it.

A man who raced off approached the girl on the platform slowly and took that hand.

Though she distorted her face for a moment, she quickly returned faceless and was taken by a man.

You're perceiving your own ordeal from now on, your eyes were just dark.

"Followed by Lake Hill!

A girl who's not even ten yet!

Cheers happen again, but I didn't feel like I was in tune with them.

Enough.

It's none of my business, and I'm not interested.

There is no reason to be here.

out of sight the girl coming out of the tent, turning her heel back, but

▽*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:▽

[No name even if reincarnated]

"Wait a minute!

That's the kid in the orphanage!

It's called Riml! '

△*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:△

In response to the fairy's words, I look on the table again.

If you observe the girl's face carefully, indeed.

This is Riml, who was at the Noun's orphanage in Lake Forest.

But it's not an excuse for what I didn't realize at first sight, but my impressions are very different.

I was just raised in that church, dressed clean and well looked after, and now I have no shadow to see.

Her hair, which was so glossy and golden as to play the light, is worn out, her poor nutritional status peels off her cheeks and forehead skin, and she sees cloudy peachy meat.

▽*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:▽

[No name even if reincarnated]

'What do you mean? Didn't Blade Niki send you a rescue request?

[No name even if reincarnated]

'Did you not make it or were you caught by a bad person after being rescued...'

△*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:△

I see.

Didn't she help well...

I turned away from her again, trying to get away from this place.

▽*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:▽

[No name even if reincarnated]

"Wait, wait, wait, wait. Yes!!

Why are you abandoning me!?

Aren't you trying to help?

△*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:△

I won't help.

What does it mean to help in the first place?

There is little means for an unfamiliar girl to live.

Whether the guests who are here are kept by nobles or thrown into a whorehouse, they will not have trouble sleeping.

That's one way of life.

▽*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:▽

[No name even if reincarnated]

"Homhom's too cold to say anything."

[◆ Baron Eguchi]

'Maybe Homhom is right.

It's too late to help.

I'll see how it goes.

It's been four months since I've been here.

It would be easy to imagine what they were doing before they brought us here.

They haven't been announced as new. "

△*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:△

At that moment when the bearded man set the minimum at 200 tiers in an attempt to start the competition,

"Hey! Wait a minute!

I guess Sole is really a kid, huh?

You're not faking it to catch the price!

To that voice, which passes well, the place quiets for a moment, and then goes out of its way.

But the bearded man laughed with his hunch and nose,

"Can't you believe it?

Then make sure with your own eyes!

Holle! "

The bearded man held the dagger knife backwards and ripped its cuttings all at once as they plugged them around a cloth-cut chest wrapped around a rim.

Riml's body was exposed when the cleaved cloth cut fell to the floor so that the egg shell could crack.

It's a poor body of a child who's still developing.

Despite this, the men cheer,

"You guys! You can go to hell!!

Riml himself was the only one who unleashed a word full of hatred.

Without hiding my body, I flicker my memories as I open my eyes and scream in spit.

She didn't break her defiant and aggressive attitude toward Meliá or me.

And I get it.

That she hasn't given up living yet.

But not all human beings feel the pain of their conscience at her utmost rebellion.

There are human beings of the kind who feel the will to rebel as well as spice, so that the good prey of life delights the hunter.

The competition began.

The competition that started with 200 tiers caught the value within a glance.

"It's 380!

A big man with brown skin raised his hand to present the highest amount.

That's the equivalent of my two-month salary.

"You're the baron's dog lover.

I've come across a competition before. "

"Oh... that perverted nobleman.

If they keep me, I'm done.

Rumor has it, then, he was delighted to lock the dog he owns and the child's slave in the same cage.

You know, at the end of the day, they used you as bait for crazy places. "

"Egg!

How much better is a whorehouse? "

... Humans are strange creatures.

Some individuals don't hate bleeding for others, others don't hate the pain of others, on the contrary, they feel comfortable.

I'm not human.

I'm not even trying to be.

But... there is something about me that I still want to be.

"It's 400."

I raised my hand.

▽*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:▽

[No name even if reincarnated]

"Sarasu, Sir Silvius!

Jesus My Lord!

[No name even if reincarnated]

'In the end, it's sweet on the mood, isn't it?

That's the good part. '

△*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:△

It's more or less your fault.

I'm telling you, I don't know anything about children.

I need backup.

▽*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:▽

[No name even if reincarnated]

"The one of you familiar with kids! Raise your hand! '

[◆ Baron Eguchi]

"Nosi."

[No name even if reincarnated]

"Around! Come quickly!!

△*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:△

"420"

Again the man who had just turned on 380 raised his voice.

"450"

I catch more value. [M]

"Hey, 470!

The man wants to know how I am.

"500."

And the moment I said it, I punched my tongue and kicked the ground.

"500! 500! There's no more of this!

Buy it!

I walk up to her to break a crowd of people. [M]

"You...... of that time!?

Riml stares at me in surprise.

I looked at her and put on her jacket. [M]

Then the men around him bothered.

"That identity... isn't it a royal Kingsguard uniform!

"True! And you're a female knight..."

"I wonder what you're going to use it for..."

"I'd rather buy a buyer."

▽*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:▽

[No name even if reincarnated]

"I want to buy some homme too."

[No name even if reincarnated]

"Hey, Homhom's mine."

△*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:*+*+:△

I want to sell you guys off.

"I don't have a companionship, but I'll bring it later, okay?

I sneaked up on the slave trader and he glanced at me for a moment.

"If it's true, it's a lynch because it's a code breaker, but if it's a knight, it won't be taken away.

I hope you'll miss it in the future. "

I said.

Now you can rest assured.

"Let's go. Follow me."

I followed the square with Riml. [M]

Riml opened his mouth just off the square.

"... where am I going to be taken?

Is it a whorehouse?

Or is it at the nobleman's?

Riml, staring upwards, is as alert and frightened of me as a beast at hand.

"My house... technically not, but is it like a nobleman for once?

Then it's the latter. "

"Ah, you must be a woman!?

What are you going to make me do with it!?

I don't know what kind of answer Riml wants, but I slow down and make him listen.

"I'm not thinking about what I'm going to make you do.

I never bought a slave, and I wasn't thinking of buying one.

In the meantime, I bought it because I wanted to save you from danger. "

Riml puts more neck on my answer.

It was then.

Men armed from the front and rear approached us on small runs and surrounded us.

That number is four.

They all seem to be men who were in the market earlier.

"I've done a hell of a job with a knight serving the royal family.

I don't know what would happen if I found out I bought a girl in a slave market. "

Niyanya and I have been laughing and calling out to a big man who was competing with me earlier.

"I just bailed out the kid.

I don't remember being blamed. "

I said it clearly.

"Nobody can tell in your belly, can't they?

Many hobbies, especially the noble ones, do not seem to be understood by those below.

I'd like to show you what you can do to that child. "

I laughed so that the men around me would also agree with the words that engulfed my downward thoughts.

Riml looks over at the men with the same defiant eyes, but his feet are dull.

"Say what you want.

I'm not going to waste my time with you. "

"Those cold eyes...... they paralyze me.

He's going to kill me now, Shomben. He's going to stink. "

You wouldn't think that at all.

Most of the female knights are daughters of the aristocratic family and some of those who have gently grabbed sword moves.

There is no first fierce man to kick off multiple men.

To him, I seem to be one of those female knights.

"Blah, I don't want to give you that slave.

My client is asking me to do this.

I don't have a companionship right now, but I can give you 800 if you want to.

What do you say we give it up?

The man approaches me and asks me. [M]

The exhaling breath smells of rotten leftovers.

A normal female knight might be disrespectful at this point.

"I'm not going to give in.

I'm not going to negotiate any more. "

"Oh well... poor thing"

The words seemed to signal, and the men pulled the swords and knives they had out of their sheaths.

"If you obey adults, give them what you've missed.

Your knight life has never been the same.

Tomorrow you'll start living like a woman and be adored by a man. "

I sigh and answer the men who laugh at Niyaniya.

"Thank you. A lot of people treat me like a woman.

Is it stranger to treat me like a man from the beginning "

Does Meliá feel uneven with the public in that sense?

And so on, and I think crap.

"What a mess."

He grabbed the sword blade of the man who tried to impress me with his finger and broke it.

A crude mass produced product that just poured iron into the template.

The gain represents the user.

It's like we're proving our incompetence at the time we're using something like this.

"No!?

"I don't think my current life is better than anything, but it's still a testament to the friendship my friend left me.

You can't just throw it away easily. "

I can live in the Ifestio Empire as a knight thanks to Blade hanging with the Empress in the first place.

So it's important to me to protect it.

"And I want to protect this kid, too.

... Couldn't protect you before, but not this time.

I don't basically kill people, except when I have the will to protect others.

You can throw your bodies across the front door of the owner's house. "

With that said, the men's warfare could not disappear altogether when the broken blade was further broken in half.

"Coming through."

I walked out of Limul's hand. [M]

The men didn't come after me.
