I Don’t Want to Break off my Engagement…

"Can Miss Fern use magic?

"Dear Thialise, my thing is Fern," he said. It looks like you should hide your identity here... because it's a place "

Fern lay down his face. Surely it would be dangerous to call each other by honor in this place. If Fern finds out I'm the Duke's warrant... no, he must know about me and Fern.

But maybe some people don't. This identity can be useful in the Royal Palace, but in these places it can be the opposite with your feet. Until we get out safely, we'll have to hide it.

"... right. Then call me Tia, too."

"Oh, I can't do that. Lady Tialise is a maid of the Duke's house and is the fiancé of His Royal Highness the King........................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................

Fern raised his face like he was bounced.

I only felt uncomfortable when she suggested I take her name off the table. I shook my head and answered.

"No, the name Tialise may be unusual in the Talian country... and most importantly, it's for each other's safety to hide their identities. So did Fern, huh?

"... okay, Tia, then,"

"No salutations either. Call me casually. Hey, Fern?

………………

He had been patrolling for a long time, but slightly, Fern opened his mouth.

"Then, until we get home safely. …… please forgive my disrespect"

"I'm asking for it, so there's nothing to forgive."

When I told Fern that, I looked around.... Rapier as expected, no. I guess they took it away. I can't fight this properly then. There are limits to fighting with magic alone. If you get cut during chanting, you can't handle it, and it's too unfavourable to have anything to shelter you from. Let's start with a search for Rapier.

Thinking about it, I inadvertently heard yelling downstairs. Fern made his body obviously stronger.

"... Fern?

"Dear Tia...... Tia. Oh, you know what? Listen, this is where the slave market opens up, but, you know, it's like doing the same thing here... the job you and I were entrusted with is mainly exposing the kids. Either one of us stays here and one of us gets the kid......... that's what we do"

Fern answered with a plundered voice.

............... Oh, my God. I get dazzled by so much outrage. You want me to take the kid? And do you mean to sell the child? I wonder what you think of people, their lives. And what happens to sold children? That's more obvious than seeing a fire. I held my fist unintentionally to the fact that I was too inferior.

There was a scream downstairs. It's a girl scream.

"Huh..."

"Enjoy, Tia. Even if we do this now, we won't be able to keep a close watch."

…………

What Fern says is right. But you can't just miss hearing the sad screams of a girl you hear from downstairs. The suppressed magic twitches and seeps. What am I gonna do? What am I supposed to do?

At a time like this............... if it were that king prince.

Though I've thought about it, the king prince possesses monstrous powers. We can fix this with strength. I can't guess. Closer, not His Royal Highness...... yes, what would I do if I were Lady Vialis, for example?

Bear this place first? And I wonder if we can find a way out of here. That's hard work, isn't it? I know. I know, but...

The girl's crying stopped. And even if the screaming that attracts me all over again, it goes up. I also heard yelling.

That's the limit!

I swung through Fern's stillness, opened the door and ran down the wooden stairs in front of me. The scream keeps getting closer and closer. Fern followed me in a hurry, too.

When I went downstairs, I breathed like that. There are small discharges everywhere in a place like a large hall. The cage contained children in bundles, and the children sat down to shrink their bodies. Everybody, your eyes are empty. The original girl in the scream was being dragged out of the cage and swung up the bake.

The girl's body was also miserable to see. That painful body unwittingly makes me want to turn away.

A big man shakes up the bake and another man suppresses the girl's limbs. The girl's screams got worse.

My uncontrollable emotions exploded by accident.

Kind of chills behind my head.

In the next moment of blinking, the hall was icy. Literally everything from furniture is frozen with ice.

Is that...? I just chanted...?

When I thought so. The gaze of the men, who had not suffered any damage to the flesh, turned this way because they had just frozen the room.

"Oh!?......... who are you!?

"Oh, that's pretty cute. I wonder if Sudy's guys brought him in."

The man who had the bake raises his voice in fright. That bake is completely frozen and no longer likely to help. Not even a weapon. A man stares at us as he grips the grill like that.

What do I do...... I came out unexpectedly, but what do I do? There are many children here. How to get the kids away and we get away safely too...... Think. Think! Otherwise, he dies. Worst case scenario is I'm gonna die, and Fern, and the kids could die.

The man who was keeping the girl in check looked around to lick us, albeit lightly.

"It looks a little tight, but it looks like it might be tight. Are you for sale, too?

She frowned because she was offended by the way she put it. A gentle glance whistled the man.

"Qiqiang"

"Don't be silly. Eh. Hey, you! You guys are the wholesale Sudy brought in yesterday! What are you doing here? This is our spot. Get back to your room now!

Fern speaks to the words with a small "tier..." Wholesale................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... I'm not kidding. Can you do that?
