When I arrived at Banza's house, I looked around the house again.

'Was that a bit much?'

　If anyone else had been there, they would have been more than a little ticked off.
　The back wall of the house was blown off, and of the twenty-eight bodies inside, nineteen were either punctured or partially blown off by the rubble, and the remaining nine bodies were split in two and blown out of their guts.
　Because of this, the room is filled with the stench of filth and blood.

Well, let's get it over with.

　Take out the three medium-sized golems and start cleaning up. First of all, I make them take Banza to the outside and wash it with water. I made one of the golems wrap the rope tightly around it and hang it on the eaves of the eaves of the building because it noticed and tried to resist on the way.
　I had the other golems carry large pieces of debris, broken tables and other furniture outside. At that time, the smaller golems arrived, and I had ten of them collect the bodies from the room outside, while the rest continued to carry the prisoners.

　After about 30 minutes, the room was empty.
　So we use the water magic method throughout the room in the manner of a high pressure washer to remove the dirt from the floor and walls.
　Wastewater is dumped outside, and I use wind magic to combine drying and air replacement. It's a lot better than it was at first.
　The corpses we put outside are frozen and thrown into bags, and the furniture is burned and disposed of.

　I didn't have time to do anything else, so I went to the field and used soil magic to extract a lot of clay.
　I mixed the clay with straw and used alchemy to form it into a square box shape.
　The size of the box is about 2m long, 4m wide and 60cm deep.
　I dried it with wind magic and fire magic.
　Finally, I fired it with fire magic and completed it.
　What I was making was a 'bathtub' made of earthenware. I think it's an okay job for someone who made it with half knowledge.

　I put the bathtub in my bag and headed for the garden of the house where the women were staying.
　I dig a square hole in that yard and harden it, then place the tub and fill in the gaps with dirt.
　Next, I built a wall with earth magic around the tub. I drilled a hole in part of the wall to make an entrance.
　Finally, I filled the bathtub with water and heated the water with fire magic to complete the 'bath'.
　By the way, I didn't make the roof because it would be dangerous to make it at random.

　I called out to the three people in the house and asked them to come out.

'Temma, what's going on?'
Oh, what's in this shack?
What did you make?

　They seemed to be very interested in the hut, so I made a bath for them, to which the three of them replied

""Bath!"

　He rolled his eyes in surprise and was overjoyed as he hurried to check inside.

'Let the ladies who were held captive in there come in. I just don't have any soap or towels, so you'll have to do something about that.

　Then Lily went to ask the women inside if they had any towels.
　As a result, they said that there are no clean towels in this house, so we had to look for another house to collect them. By the way, it is said that there is no soap in this village.
　In addition to the towels, the three of us were also looking for and collecting tubs. The baths are supposed to be taken in three shifts of four people each, with one Lily and her friends joining each group to assist and add hot water to the baths by magic.

　While the women are taking a bath, I decided to take a stroll through the village and go inside to find the larder.
　As we left the house, Lily and her friends nailed me to the wall, never to look in. I nodded anyway, although I'm not sure why.
　The pantry was surprisingly large, but there wasn't much food left inside.
　Instead, the thieves' treasures were piled up in a corner.
　There was an unusual number of weapons: about a million g's of gold, two small chests full of jewelry, 146 swords, 132 spears, 130 bows, and about 10,000 to 12,000 arrows for 20 barrels.

''Funny, aside from the gold and jewels, the number of weapons is abnormal for a bandit group of about a hundred people to have.

　I concluded that it would be better to let the three of them know about this and discuss it with them, and decided to put off the collection until later.
　When I returned home, the third group had just finished bathing, and Millie, who was in charge, came out just in time.

'Milly, do you have a minute?'

　I called out to him, and he came up to me, scrubbing his still-dry hair with a towel.

'What's up Temma?' Ha! I didn't think you wanted to see me take a bath or anything.
'It's serious. Call Lily and Nellie, we need to talk.

　With a serious look on her face, Millie steeled herself and went to call them.
　Soon they were all together and I reported to the three of them about the weapons I had seen in the pantry.

'What do the three of you think?'

There are definitely too many of them.
But it's not a coincidence? I had an extra set of spares, or something.
'But if so, how can the bandits get so many new ones? And if you add up all the bandits we've defeated, that's a lot to spare.

　We talked about how we would record all the numbers and submit them to the guild, but we settled on the idea that we would submit them all to the guild.
　After the discussion was over, I tried to take a bath, but for some reason the three of us were vehemently opposed to it, so I had no choice but to boil a pot of water and just use it to wipe myself down.

　It was nearly dawn because of all the things that had happened, so we decided to talk about it again after we got up and got some sleep.

　The sun was already high in the sky when I woke up to the rumbling of my stomach. From the position of the sun, it was about noon.
　I stretched absent-mindedly and got out of the carriage I had slept in. After that, I wasn't comfortable sleeping in the house with the women, so I took the carriage out and slept in it alone.

　It was halfway through the day, but I started cooking for an early lunch.
　The menu consisted of leftover soup from the previous day, plus dried meat and vegetables, added water to increase the amount of water and seasoning with salt and other seasonings, and a loaf of bread that I bought in town. I called out to the house so I could have some for the women.

　The woman who came out was not Lily and her friends, but the woman who served tea at Banza's house yesterday.

'I'm sorry for being so rude to you yesterday for helping us out,'

'No, I don't mind. It was under those circumstances, so I had no choice.

　The woman who apologized to me first thing at the opening said her name was Serna, and she was the daughter of the village chief of this village.
　After receiving the apology, I felt sorry, but I asked her what happened here.

　Serna was a little confused, and then slowly opened her mouth.
　According to Serna, the Banza gang suddenly attacked this village in the middle of the night about three weeks ago. At the time, there were about 60 people in the village, and all of them were present, but due to the fact that it was the middle of the night and they had been planning it for a long time, the villagers were all caught without being able to do anything.
　Afterwards, they were divided into women and men, but the men were killed immediately.
　There were twenty-five women, but thirteen of them, who were older, were killed in the same way, leaving only twelve who were worthy of being women to those guys. But when they couldn't stand it, they bit off their tongues and committed suicide, Banza put the 'slave collar' on Ms. Serna and the others.
　After saying this, Serna showed them the collar that was hidden by the scarf. The reason why she wrapped the scarf around her head and served us tea was so that we wouldn't be suspicious of the woman's absence.


　This "slave collar" was originally only allowed to be handled by "legitimate slave traders", but even in this world there are illegal people and underworld, and there are many people who purchase and use it through illegal channels, and it is said that it is impossible to eradicate it.

　A slave's collar has the effect of forcing the slave to obey the three principles of robotics: "You must not harm your master," "You must obey your master's orders," and "You must protect yourself within the bounds of your master's orders," and if you try to forcibly remove the collar, you will feel pain and in the worst case, death. It can be reached.
　And a slave's collar can't be removed without the master's permission, essentially. Also, it can only be removed by those who can use purification or breaking magic that is more powerful than the curse. However, cleansing and undoing the curse cannot be used without the master's permission, and it does not work against one's own collar.

　There are different types of slaves, criminal slaves, war slaves, common slaves, and illegal slaves, criminal slaves are, as the name implies, slaves of criminals and this one has a minimum of one year and a maximum of life, depending on the severity of the crime.
　War slaves are those who were captured and dropped into slavery during the war, and many of them lost the war.
　General slaves are mostly those who sold themselves or to reduce their mouths, and most of them volunteered or were sold by their parents.
　Illegal slaves are those who were sold for kidnapping or slave hunting, and will be released only if the complaint is legitimate, and the shop will be penalized according to the degree of the crime.
　Incidentally, during the examination, the collar is temporarily removed under strict supervision, but if the slave deliberately lies during the examination, is badly mistaken, or attempts to escape, he is dropped into criminal slavery for life.
　But in general, illegal slaves are rarely revealed and are rarely discovered because they are not easily distinguishable.
　War slaves and common slaves have no term and can be freed by their masters, but they must spend at least a year in slavery.

　Slaves are owned by the state (the king), landed gentry, collectives, and individuals, while criminal slaves can only be owned by landed gentry with permission from the state and the king. Uses are also determined.
　War slaves and civilian slaves can be owned by anyone, regardless of age. However, if the master is a criminal and has died, the slave's right to be owned by his or her master's murderer or the person who found him or her first.

　I was reminded of this when Serna said

'Therefore, until we are declared illegal slaves, Mr Temma will be our master. I look forward to working with you.

　I dared not to think about it, but Serna simply told me that I was about to become the master of Serna and her friends. Worst of all, I was about to become the master of Serna and her friends, and the three of them, hearing the news, came at me like a fierce fire.

"What do you mean, Tenma?
"You're so weak, Temma!
'Temma's naughty, dirty, perverted!

　He accused me of being a good friend. Me and Serna tried to calm them down, but to no avail, and they blamed me quite harshly.
　It was only after half an hour of blaming me that I managed to calm them down and explain the situation to them, and when the three of them were short of breath, me and Serna explained to them quickly and it was settled.

　The three of them are currently cowering in the corner of the yard in embarrassment after apologizing to me with the force of getting down on their knees.

'Hey, you three. We don't care about it anymore, so come here. Let's have dinner.

　The three of them reacted with a jolt at my voice and turned around fearfully. I tried to look as gentle as possible and beckoned them to me.
　Perhaps because of that, the three of them began to come closer to me.
　I handed the three of them some soup and bread and decided to have lunch together, Serna seems to take the other women's portions inside the house and eat with them there.

　By the time we finished eating, we were back to the usual three of us. I watched them all catch their breath and I started talking.

'I think we should get back to the city as soon as possible, what do you three think?

'I think I disagree with you about the women,'

　Lily disagreed with my idea.

'I agree with Lily. I think we should wait and see what happens before we move on.

'I agree with Temma. I think the sooner we let the guild know about this village, the better. And if I can do that, I'd like to free them from slavery as soon as possible.

　Nellie is in opposition and Millie is in favor. We were just divided into two equal numbers of opinions.
　As I was thinking about what to do, Serna came over and opened her mouth.

''Well, after our discussion, we've agreed that we want to leave this village as soon as possible...''

　And then he called out to me in a reserved manner and continued.

''We understand the inconvenience. But we really want to get away from places where it's easy to remember days like that, and we can't wait.

　I argued, then, and the two men who had been opposed to the idea were convinced, so we began to prepare to move.

　First they looked for something for the women to ride in and a carriage to carry the bandits in. As luck would have it, they found a safe carriage and a horse to pull it, so they selected three of the carriages and lightly cleaned them and tied the horses together. The bandits were lumped together in the ragged carriage.
　I threw them in together at this time because I was about to forget about Banza, and of course I tied the bandits' hands and feet as a precaution.
　Three of the women's carriages and I would be the driver of the bandits' carriage.

　The women have no intention of living in this village from now on, so I asked them to collect what they can convert into gold from each house. They are to convert it into gold in the city and use it as a current fund. They will also take the rest of the carriages and horses with them.

　The last thing I want to do is to put the items from the pantry in my bag, while the three of them and Serna make an inventory of the items and put them in my bag, checking them one by one.

　The work was finished before evening, but we decided to leave without a care in the world.
　When it was time to leave, I noticed that Shiroumaru and Slarin were not in the dimension bag.
　I used my search to look for them and found them just as they were running from the forest.

'What were you guys doing?'

　At my question, Slarin came in front of me with a zing and spat out about six dash boars with a thud as his body ripped open as if he were opening his mouth. As we were stunned, his body ripped apart once more, and this time he spat out a boar that was more than twice as big as the others.

　The boar is called the King Dashboa, and it's a C-ranked demon, a higher species of dashboa. However, it was originally supposed to be about 2.5 meters long, but this one was over 3 meters long.
　Slarin and Shiroumaru seemed to be good at it, and the people around them were rolling their eyes at the sight of a boar slamming out of a slime of about sixty centimeters.

　I put the dashboa in my bag and patted Slarin and Shiroumar and praised them as they took the meat from me and went into their dimension bag.

　I pulled myself together and left the village. Along the way, there were some bandits tumbling and wolf-shaped monsters looking for us, but there was no problem, and we arrived at the town a little after sunset.
