78 70. Rescue




Yikes!

 I am thrown off by a man. There are about twenty strong men around me. They all carry swords, axes and other weapons. This must be a moneylender's hideout.

 My children and I were kidnapped by these men. There were five of us around me, May and Roy and all the children from the church. They all had their arms tied with ropes and could not move.

 I was harvesting vegetables outside with the children earlier, and I was startled when my vision suddenly went dark and I was forcibly pushed into a carriage and brought to the house.

'Oh, well, isn't she cute?'

 As I was checking to see if my children were safe, I heard a distant voice behind me. A shiver runs down my spine at the voice, and I look fearfully to see a man nearly two meters tall. He carries a huge double-edged axe on his back and looks at us with a grin on his face. Is this man the leader?

''Wow, what are they going to do with us?''

 I hold my trembling hands and ask the man who I believe to be the leader. I know what he is going to say, but I couldn't help but ask.

'Huh? You know that, right? We'll sell the kids to the slavers and you'll be their master's comforter. Be careful, oh, there are some perverts in your clientele. I don't know how many people have died because of that.

 Men laughing at me. I couldn't stop my body from shaking with fear. I have to protect my children, but my mouth won't move.

'Well, if you're going to make money for the kids, missy, then I'm not going to sell you kids.

 The leader man says to me with a grin on his face. I can't believe that. I'm sure they will be sold out while I'm making money. But I am sure this is the only way to protect them.

Oh, yeah, the knights won't be coming to help. One of our clients is the Archbishop. And since he's the commander, he can give orders to the knights. Didn't you wonder? I mean, no matter how much I begged for help, those knights just wouldn't budge, would they? That's because everyone in charge of this vicinity is in charge of that Commander's Order.

 The leader man who says that and laughs again. I didn't think that the knights were also fellow moneylenders. That's why they wouldn't listen to you no matter how much you said.

Oh, big sister.

 My children will look at me when I think about it. I don't trust them, but if there's any chance of protecting them, I'm going to.

Wow, okay. I'll make the money. So please send all the kids home!

'Kakkakkah! You said it, sweetheart. You're gonna earn your money whether you lose a limb or not. If you die and you don't make any money, then I'll sell the kids to you.

 Oh, no! If I'm killed on the way or something, the kids....

"Hey, you guys, you can have a taste. But don't break it.

 The moment the leader man says that, the men around me shout with joy. And then they come closer to me. Well, no way.

"Hee hee, that's my brother, you're a big man! Hey woman, I'm going to f*ck you in front of the kids!

 Then the man pulls out a knife and cuts the ropes that bind me, and from behind, another man grabs my hands above my head and pulls the ropes around my wrists. Then he grabs my clothes and pulls with all his might and...

 Chattering!

 And they tear the clothes off. It was a monastic uniform and that's all it would reveal. The only thing left is my underwear. And the top underwear was stripped off by the man. At that moment, I felt the last wall inside me break down. My body trembles with fear and tears flow from my eyes.

'It's too late to cry now! Heehee, you're a little skinny, but you've got beautiful breasts!

 The man grabs my chest as he says this. Ouch! I suppose so, but I'm too afraid to speak.

Sis! Let go of your sister!

 Roy gets mad at me, but the men around me just laugh.

'Watch the kids. Watch this woman cry and scream!

 The man then works his way to the underwear underneath. I meditate on it with too much fear.

 Then a completely misguided thought passes through my mind that for the first time I wanted to give it to someone I love. And the one boy that comes to mind is one boy. A boy who was probably still younger than me, but who had a solid vibe and helped us through it all.

 The boy who has been in my head since yesterday and has been in my bed and in my dreams. I wonder if I could bear it while thinking of this man? 

 I grit my teeth at the thought. And the moment my underwear is pulled down...

 Boom!

 There was a roaring sound. I open my eyes and look in the direction of the sound and see that the iron door has been broken down in a distorted way. The men around me are also stunned and look at the door. And then I hear footsteps coming in.......one boy and two girls. But I can only see the boys.

 Oh, it makes my heart warm. The boy I thought I was seeing is right in front of my eyes. The boy wears a blue-white light and stares at the men in anger.

 Huh! It may be inappropriate at this time, but it's cool........ My thought leader.

 Mr. Ray.

 ◇ ◇ ◇.

 We've now arrived at what appears to be a moneylender's hideout. Ferris and Caro came with me. Alexia was asked to remain at the church for medical treatment, and Aeris was asked to stay behind as her bodyguard. We knew Alexia would be fine, but we couldn't let anything happen to her.

 We went to the moneylender's shop that the sisters told us to go to, but there were only a few lowlifes inside, so we were wasting our time. We found out from them and came to this warehouse-like place.

 This area seems to be a commercial district, and warehouses stand in a row away from the shops. It seems that there is a moneylender's hideout in here.

 I don't know which one, but this is where Ferris comes in, because there are similar warehouses lined up. I take out the cloth bag that contains the vegetables I received yesterday from the item ring and let Ferris smell it. And

Come on.

 Ferris shows me around. I see this figure sometimes and it looks like a dog. I'd be offended if I said so. Ferris shows me around for a few minutes. Ferris stops and examines one of the buildings. I still can't tell the difference between it and the other building. But Ferris does.

I can smell it on the bag from the warehouse here.

 I'm not sure. Surely there's a reaction from inside at the signs, about thirty of them. I pat Ferris's head in return, and he flicks his tail happily. Cute.

'Alright, both of you back off a bit.

 I say that to the two of them and make sure they're away, and then I apply Lightning's body grant. Then I build up my magic power in my left hand and hit the door as hard as I can!

 Boom!

 It was an iron door, but I had no problem punching it open. And when I went in, there was Pricia, who had been torn out of her monk's uniform and was naked, and the men who were trying to attack her. Some children are tied up beside her. They managed to get there in time, though.

 I walk to Pricia-san's side in silence. The men, who were stunned by the suddenness of the situation, have regained their senses and come closer to me.

'Hey kid! 

 I punched the man away in silence. I punched the man in the face with my right hand as hard as I could and he blew away. I know I'm not going to die, but I don't care about you guys.

 I then kick the man, who is still frozen on top of Pricia, away. The man bounces off the ground repeatedly and crashes into the wall, vomiting blood. I was too angry to hold back. I don't regret it.

 When I reach Pricia-san, I take out the cloak I bought for when it was cold from the item ring and put it on Pricia-san. That outfit is a bit of a problem, you know. I'll give Pricia-san.

I'll be fine.

 I say with a smile. Then Pricia-san suddenly started to cry. She must have been really scared. The kids are secured by Ferris, and Caro is by her side while she deploys the barrier. So this is the precipice. A thin, glowing membrane of some sort surrounds Pricia and the others.

'Don't worry about it here, you can frolic.

 If Caro says so, then let's do it. I look around at the men, and I see them.

Get ready for this, boys.

 I'll never forgive you.
