My Genderswapped Life (as a God) in a New World

13 The Dark Merchant Behind the State

Looking around the market, satisfied with our mood and hunger, we were resting in the square to wait for Sarah's return.It will be about an hour since I waited for Sarah.I don't feel Sarah appearing at all.We were a little worried about coming home late.

"He's late. What are you doing?"

Ama seemed pretty frustrated.Poverty and shaking feet are intense.

"I don't think men understand, but you shouldn't lick a girl's shopping."

"Celt... you're a man, too."

Gact's words stick into my chest.To be too honest, I was shocked to see reality.

"No, it's a man!But now I'm a girl from everybody's perspective! "

It's like Haribote.

This is what happens after this one.

Nah, so why don't you just tell Sarah I'm looking for her?

That's true, too. Even if it is a girl, the shopping time has passed.We decided to go to the shopping street off the market in this city.This shopping street was less crowded than the market.It seems easy to find.

Well, here I am.

Activation: Asymmetrical Eye (Odyssey)

Dan's eyes turned red and blue.

"Dan, can you find it?"

"This makes it possible to sense heat, but only the heat of the object can be sensed.You can see it even if it was on the other side of the obstacle.Do you understand, Celt? "

"So you're talking about transparent thermal goggles?"

That's right.

Dan overlooks this shopping street 360 degrees.Then I saw a red mark on the back of the shopping street.

"I can see the silhouette sitting over there!!"

"Okay, let's go."

We ran to where Dan thought Sarah was.As I approached the place, there were fewer signs of people, and the sky should be clear, but the light wouldn't come in much, and when I noticed it, I was walking in a place like a back alley.The temperature there seems to be lower than in the shopping district, making it creepier.

"Is Sarah here?I don't think it's a good place for girls to shop. "

Yushiriz is right. Not only young girls like this, but also ordinary people don't come here much.Something must have happened to Sarah.We ran at full speed.

"Here!! I'm in here!!"

Our place was like an old bar that obviously seemed to be crushed.The sign is broken and I don't know what it says.

"Let's get in there..."

I open the door. When I opened it, the smell of dust came out.Inside, there were many wooden round tables and chairs that were destroyed.It doesn't seem to be open at all.

"What is this... dirty. It stinks."

Ama pinched her nose.Indeed, the smell of rusty iron and rotting smell was mixed here with dust.

"I have a bad feeling about this..."

"Yushiriz, that bad feeling may be in the air."

Dan was staring at the door behind this store.

"There's a reaction ahead, and there's a path ahead."

Let's go!

I twisted the door knob, but the door didn't open.It appears to be closed from the inside.I tried tackling the door many times, but it didn't scare me.

"Kh!! I can't open it!!"

Celt, get back.

Ama held out her hand towards the door.

Activation: electromagnetic gun shock gun

The electricity flowed from Ama's hand and the door was blown to pieces.When we get inside, the smell of rust and rot bothers our noses.And because there was nothing but a lantern under my feet, it was darker up there and I couldn't see anything.

"It's dark!! It stinks!! I'll light it up a bit...."

Yushiriz held the fallen tree fragments and fired the lantern fire out of his hand using his [Flame Generation] skill to create a pine light.As soon as Yushiriz's lights illuminated the space, we saw a shocking sight.There are plenty of square cages that house the beast, and one by one you can hear voices groaning.

"Do you keep animals?"

"Unfortunately, Yubis is going to die.This is all human... "

"Humans!? Well... here..."

Yes, this was a real slave warehouse.I didn't think it would be so bad.It wasn't like the cartoons and the world of Lanove we were watching.There are signs of blood splashes and vomit wrapped around the floor, as well as bloody collars, ropes, and chains.Unlike that market earlier, we were afraid.

"No way... Sarah!!"

We went further and there was a large cage in front of us.Except for that, there was a cage in front of Sarah.I burst into the cage and screamed in a hurry.

"Sarah!! Are you okay? Sarah!!!"

Then two people emerged from behind the cage.

"Celtic... are you Celtic!?"

It was Sarah. It was the same as when the clothes and face were separated, so it seemed that nothing had been done yet.

"Sarah!! Why are you here?!"

"I don't know. When I'm done shopping and I want to go home, my vision suddenly gets dark, and when I find out, I sleep here...."

"I see....."

"You know these people?"

I heard a man in the back.

"Is anyone there!?"

"What? That voice is a scholar. It's me."

The one that came out of putting it on the plate was the one we used to recognize too much in the old world.

"" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" "" ""

Everyone was so surprised that their eyes jumped out.

Yeah, it's me ~ Long time no see ~

"I totally forgot about you, but why are you here!!Where have you been so far!? "

"Yanagitaro. Long time no see. I've been sleeping here since then. Where is it?"

"Yubis, I'll talk to you later.Let's get them out of the cage first! "

I was ready for the skill, then.

"That's it, guys!!"

Looking back, a big man and a small man came out of the entrance.

"What are you trying to steal from us?"

A small man approached with a cigarette in his mouth.

"What are you guys doing?"

Yushiriz saw the men.

"Us? Like us, we're a slave seller.This big bump is really a dollar. "

A man named Dollar pressures me silently.

"Did you just say the product?It's not yours!! "

Yushiriz yelled at them, but they didn't seem to be frightened.On the contrary, he behaved with plenty of room.

"No, it's ours because we picked it up.Everything here is a product!!I'm happy to be our money!!! "

"This trail... Celtic!! Destroy the cage!!"

"Whoa, wait a minute. You guys think you can break that sturdy cage?And even if you break it, there's a lot of hypno-gas traps in this room.If you don't suck, I'll activate it right away. "

A man named Zeni flickered the button in his hand and showed it to us.

"You guys!!!"

"Oops, I'm gonna push you ~"

I went out before.

"Are you the boss?I'd like to buy them.You said it would be money, but how much do I owe you? "

"Hey! Celt, what are you talking about...."

Gact silenced Yushiz gently.

"Even now, we're at a disadvantage... if we don't get out of here alone, they can't be saved. Just a little patience."

"... okay."

Good boy, Yushiriz. And thank you for reading the air, Gact.I don't know if I'll listen, but I'll see what I can do.I don't know, dark merchants....

"Oh, my God, was this a customer?Thank you very much. "

As if people had changed, Zeni became a businessman.

"Your item is so precious that it is very difficult to sell normally."

Well, what can I give you to give it away?

This is what the man said when he smiled spookily.

"Bring the Fairy Feather."
