I can clearly remember that night by simply closing my eyelids.

"Look, you two stay right here."

That was Mialanze's father's last word.

My father, who took a sword he hadn't used in a long time and left to get rid of the 'poacher', died after being torn to pieces by wanting to stop by more than 10 'poachers'.

The sight I was looking at from the gap in the door. My father died dancing mad under the moon. Blood splashes and a lowly laugh sounds.

'Help this child... please!

That was Mialanze's mother's last word.

The human language that my mother, the Cat Beast Man (Ketsey), desperately studied to speak to my father. The 'poachers' mocked my mother's words for one word and then killed her.

The Beast Man would have had a buyer for it, but he still killed his mother without capturing her because he had a superb prey… in front of Mialanze, a child (half) of the Beast Man and Man whose birth is so rare that it is so close to a miracle that it was just a piece of Ketsey and other end money.

Seeing one adventurer mixed up in "The Poacher," Mialanze understood the situation.

About six months ago, Mialanze was the man who found and helped him go down in the woods.

The Mialanzes lived in the woods to avoid the eyes. As many merchants as my father and I have known for a long time come to visit from time to time, few know the very existence of Mialanze. The man who was helped took the information home and became a poacher.

My mother, united with man, was kicked out of the tribal settlement, and my father also avoided the curiosity eye for Miaranze, our own couple and daughter, and lived in the woods to hide in half.

But still, I couldn't be so selfish as to abandon the fallout and pull it off.

Yet.

Yet.

"Delight. You have a buyer. Ciel-Teira is a nobleman of the country.

Hihi... you can live a brilliant life like this in such a shitty forest?

Once helped by Miaranze, the man laughed with nitanita so much that his grin seemed to overflow from his face, thinking of the price he would receive.

In a cabin along the street just a little further north from the city of Taylakaine.

"Damn......! You abominable Princess Rose of Grief!

An old man looks like a squeaky monkey when he sees the heavenly undead air cavalry through a window and bites his teeth.

He wore a brilliantly golden, decorated dark green just-cole that was out of place in a crude building like a mountain hut.

A man who was one of Ciel-Teira's court ministers.

The Marquis of Zeebach. It is Frank Rupert Zeebach.

He had succeeded in escaping as soon as possible during the fall of the King's capital. After that, he relied on Marquis Edfeld (Marks) to turn to Taylakaine.

But here came the "Princess Rose of Grievances”.

Marks was rushing to gather mercenaries and adventurers, but couldn't possibly be able to counter the "Princess Rose of Grievances" that even defeated the Knights of the Royal Palace.

We'll figure it out if we even decide on Marks' 'secret' well, but we don't know if we're gonna make it. At the very least, you have to hold on to your guard or hide yourself until you (...).

So Frank took refuge away from the city, hiding himself and waiting. The attack specified by “Princess Rose of Grievances" in scattered sentences is due today. That's why Frank has been hiding in this place since last night.

This is a hut where the hunters use it as a hunting base or where those who go down the street make it a resting place. Frank had brought in enough supplies to be able to cage castle here for a few days. The fireplace is not used to prevent smoke from rising, and heating magic machines (artifacts) like orange lamps are spicidly heating the air in the cabin.

There are first four escort adventurers scratched by Frank (Frank, who was a court minister, does not have a knight under his command) who are with Frank in the narrow cabin. Two private soldiers who were hired to guard the mansion in Wang Du. One of my servants to let me take care of him.

And made it the most expensive possession at hand, servant, livestock, concubine and toy... was Miaranze, a girl of the cat beast (Ketsey) and the human companion (half).

"Sir, are you sure you're okay close to a city like this?

One of the hired adventurers raises his voice anxiously.

Then Frank frowned at the root of his eyebrows in a way that obviously offended him.

"What no? At the Adventurer's minute, do you doubt my thoughts?"

"No, but this..."

"My back hurts and it's been tough getting here!

It's definitely close. It's far enough from the window to see what an undead airstrike cavalry looks like flying over the city.

But Frank wasn't willing to go any farther. I couldn't help but feel at home and didn't feel like going very far.

"Besides, I must return to the city as soon as the danger is eliminated from the city. Because I have a lot on Marks' mansion... No, I don't think Marks will let me take it, but if I do badly, they'll come now...

Oh, anyway! I'm okay. I'm okay. I'm okay! You guys just have to do what you're told!

The adventurer gets sick of the way he can't say anything more.

When he saw it, Frank snorted all the time looking at the troubles. Even though he's stupid, he says something tongue-in-cheek because he opens his mouth without even thinking about it.

Frank searched for a chair to calm down for a moment, but all the chairs on the wall are as wild as just a rough combination of wood, something for Frank to see rather than sit on. I sat there until just now, but my buttocks and hips were already starting to hurt.

"Damn, the chair is a crappy, carefree cabin.

I should have brought a cushion...... no, wait. I don't know. "

Frank laughs a lot.

And when I took out a demonic machine (artifact) like a small box made of metal from my nose, I voiced towards it.

"Hey, Miaranze. Replace the chair. We're gonna crawl on all fours."

Mialanze shuddered frighteningly, holding back like a figurine in the corner of the cabin.

Every time Frank orders me to do something, with so much disgust, fear and anger, Mialanze's heart becomes like a boiling pot.

But Mialanze's body moves, completely unrelated to its mind. It's the power of The Collar of Slavery, which she embedded in her neck.

When Frank utters his voice toward the command machine he has, the collar wearer is forced to obey regardless of his will at all. Mialanze's inability to escape or kill Frank was also due to the power of the collar to forbid it.

Mialanze's body automatically crawls on all fours.

Then Frank sat on Mialanze's back.

"Ku......!

"Hmm. Terrible seating, but soft and somewhat warm."

Frank was satisfied, though badly appreciative.

The adventurers around us don't try to keep an eye on each other. I may have some thoughts inside about Marquis Zeebach's poor taste in play, but I didn't do anything to grandly accuse my employer of that.

Mialanze's body swoops.

Miaranze, who had endured eating up his teeth, swirled anger in his chest into words, as he thought.

"You, etc... I wish they had killed me in Wangdu"

"What?

It is rare for Mialanze to give a spoken answer.

That's not because I'm afraid of the cage when I disobeyed it, but because I felt that answering it was Frank's idea in itself. You look like nothing, because it makes Frank most regrettable.

But I didn't feel that way today for some reason.

"You don't deserve to live out there. Take someone else's life for fun and like others......!

Undead monsters who are killing for revenge are so much more muscular!

It's natural to perish, a country like this! A demon with the face of someone like you is heavily used... "

The weight disappeared from Mialanze's back. And it was right after I thought.

"Ahhh!?

The shock shook Mialanze's head and Mialanze fell in.

"Kuhahahahahaha! I wish I could!

Frank stood with firewood pulled out of the fireplace.

That's what hit Miaranze.

Fallen Miaranze, but the body obeys Frank's orders and tries to crawl on all fours again.

Frank hit it again.

"Ahhh...!

"Has it been about 10 years since I bought you? Hmm?

Good, even the young maids have rotten eyes, you're not dead yet!

That's what makes it worth it!!

Frank shouted in a very flippant voice of excitement.

Frank likes Miaranze.

For him, it is above all entertainment to see Mialanze physically tormented, spiritually driven, and painfully yet ungrateful.

10 years. A word in words, but long enough for Mialanze, who was young, to grow up. No longer than the happy time he lived in the woods, Mialanze has been forced by this man to enslave him as a livestock and to be secretly humiliated.

"No matter how much I hate you! You defy this eagle! You should inscribe on your soul who is the Lord!

"Yikes... Ugh! Ugh......!

Relentless firewood shook down and struck down Mialanze.

The body does not move freely at all. Raising his voice was the only resistance for Mialanze.

"Die! Die! Die! You, you, etc...!

"Do you say 'die' instead of 'kill'? Ho, you seem to understand. You seem to know you can't do anything!

"Gu, ugh...!

Firewood hits Mialanze in the back.

Eating up his teeth, Mialanze screamed.

- To me... if I had the power to kill this guy!

Kill......! Kill......! Kill, kill, kill, kill.

Mialanze thought, if people could kill just by thinking.

No matter how murderous your heart is filled, you will never receive that grudge.

There shouldn't have been.

Then all of a sudden, the area swayed heavily.

"Wow!?

Frank screams pitifully and falls. Later Mialanze also stumbled to crumble.

When Mialanze looked up again.

The cabin was half blown up.

The walls and columns remain up to about half their original height, but the top is taken away from them. A cold breeze blows through the kink, and the sun falls from the blue sky as it falls out.

"I thought there was a strange reaction to Life Sensor..."

Someone descends on the stone assembly of the chimney that is halfway there.

What existed before I looked up was the silver glow Miaranze had dreamed of.

Silver-haired, silver-eyed girl.

A rose of blood on a skirt in white dress.

He has his own neck in one hand and a bright red sword in the other hand like he scraped out a gem.

Named monster “Princess Rose of Grievances".

Distorted her face violently, she shrugged.

"That was a bingo. I'm sure it's the Marquis of Zeebach."
