Zaria, a Beneno constituent, returned after handing over Sakilis Casling to Graveyard, a slave trader.

I went away on purpose using one carriage just to hand over just one slave, but it was worth it. Whatever, that old lady sold for 600,000 gelds. I got close to three times my normal forehead. I was in a good mood because I thought it would be twice, often about 2.5 times.

But when Zaria and her group returned, there was a battle there, and there were traces of deserted eggs.

"What the hell happened...?

The brunette shortcut female warrior progresses with her men through a vivid asite with traces of blood. How many enemies were there? Why is no one here?

Indoor with a dead odor. I often lose my words to sights that have changed from when I went out in the morning.

"Sister..."

"? What?

One of my men calls me.

"Don't feel bad. Come on.... it's like being in a dungeon"

What are you doing, this guy - I had no idea what you were trying to say. Zaria and the others head to the room where the boss is supposed to be.

Looks like he got kicked. Broken door. But there were signs of people inside. Watch out, stick to the door frame, Zaria makes sure what's going on inside.

Boss - Gorge Coud, the leader of Beneno, was there.

Appearance Mid thirties. He's a skinny guy with short green hair. The costume prefers red and is flashy.

"Boss! You're safe!?

Zaria and her men rushed to Gorge. Gorge standing alone, but the room was vandalized all he could, because he didn't seem very intact.

"... boss?

Gorge has turned an untouched eye. I don't have any emotions in my expression, and on the contrary, if you look closely, those eyes are dead, too.

Suddenly, Gorge niggered. Eyes remain dead. And the next moment, Gorge exploded. Zaria, and his men were caught in that blast of flames, and the screams that went up interrupted only a few moments.

The burnt corpse eventually became dust and vanished. Like that when the dungeon demolished and absorbed the body.

And the silly, black shadow of the deserted Ajito again...

Slave merchant Graveyard.

Once back in the guild, me and Bell gathered information about Graveyard. Mr. Lassia in trouble, so I visit her.

Mr. Lassia was in the Wang Capital Guild and was in charge of arranging support supplies, but when I went to see him, he left the work to his men and prepared a colloquium.

"Graveyard... Yep, you're a mysterious slave trader"

Dark Elf's deputy guild manager answered clerically. It seems pale, it is adult and mesmerizing and has something to attract.

"Graveyard himself is of unknown age and gender. People who come on behalf of us often change, so we don't know who they are. What we deal with are, ostensibly, those who have committed crimes and fallen into slavery, slaves sold to debt cats, etc. But back there, you're dealing with rare subhumans, beasts, warcraft, etc."

"Looks like we were connected to a criminal group, too?

If I may say so, Mr. Lassia has prepared some tea for me.

"Yeah, there's an illegal connection. Except for the fact that Graveyard has big aristocrats and merchants on the back, so they're silent about illegal connections, deals, etc."

"Pretty much a walnut, that's what he is."

Mr. Bell in a black cat frowns. Mr Lassia said.

"Specializing in the slave trade, so it's not a threat, but it's troubling without you, does it feel like it? As I said earlier, for those who want to get rare sub-men and beasts, the value of the Graveyard is high"

"Do noble daughters go into that rarity, too?

If I may be sarcastic, Mr. Lassia nods.

"Probably. Given Mr. Sakilis' history, it seems foreign, or dark auction, if he sells as a slave. It won't be possible to put the Kathleen family's maid on the usual slave trading route."

This time it's not like criminal slavery, debt slavery, etc. If you were illegally kidnapped, so in the normal slave trade, you don't know where things come from. Because he who had made love to the Kathleen family might not be able to take care of him.... even people like us who want to help personally.

"However, if you are a foreign country, there is no complaining from anywhere that you can add value just because you are a daughter of a former nobleman, and assuming you are a foreign country to complain about, there is no such thing as a human being to say that much"

"What's a dark auction?

"It's an auction that deals with prohibited or translated products. There are people in the world who want to sell and buy even items that come into contact with the law. A nobleman of high stature, a royal family of another country, a subracial leader, etc., will come looking for an item to be listed here."

Mr. Lassia puts his finger on his mouth.

"Given Mr. Sakilis' history, it is also likely that he will be put on a dark auction. Whatever the source or history of the items listed here."

Outside the law for products dealt with in dark auctions. It doesn't matter by what means you got it. It is the dark auction that even tells us that there is nothing you can't buy as long as you have money.

"- When that happens, yes. Are you saying that the way to get Sakilis back is that it's easy to buy what was put up in that dark auction by proper procedure"

I sighed unexpectedly.... you think I'll buy a slaved classmate? Not at all.

"It's faster to get into Graveyard and retrieve it, right?

Mr Bell said in due course.

"You heard there were leading nobles and merchants on the back of slave traders, right? If you go, you'll turn them against the enemy."

"Don't find out, secretly take it back"

"Depending on what you do, it's possible. But where that retrieved Sakhiris is, we'll find out what we did, right? Then in the end, including the guys on the buck, it's only a hassle"

Graveyard himself is not necessarily there for reclaiming his captive Sachris and killing the people at the scene with his mouth sealed. They say mysterious merchants, etc., in the first place, so it's also likely that they don't have the person.

Naturally, there will always be a means of retribution if it comes to taking away slaves, a commodity that was under control. Anyway, there's a powerful man on the back. If nobles and criminal organizations start looking for the killer with their blood on their eyes, they'll have no choice but trouble.

And when it does, it will bother the school - and the Early's as well. It doesn't have to be. It's this school with many noble children. Spare me trouble or something with the extra jump fire.

The least hassle is buying it on a regular route. It can be said that Graveyard is also the only way not to be resented by the people behind it.

"I don't think we've established the Dark Auction Route yet."

Mr Lassia pointed it out. There's also a line of foreign trading routes.

"I'm with you everywhere. After all, we have to buy Sakhiris."

The question is, when will they sell it? It would be too late if the buyer had already followed it, and it would be even more troublesome if we were to take it back from it.

"The closest dark auction date, time and place... you don't know, do you?

"You don't know it in your guild."

Mr Lassia said thoughtfully.

"I just think some adventurers are members of the Dark Auction. I'm going to hit a few of you... but I was wondering if you wanted anything less."
