Chapter 65

Chapter 65 Everyone Going Back Home to Gramada

Now that I'm done with the seizure, let's free all the captured people in the basement.

Having come into the basement, there's barely any light, and the air kinda feels stagnated.

Light, Light, Liiiiiiiiiight!

As well as a light Wind Storm to replace the air!

I could hear confused voices of people, like "W-what!?", "Hiiii" in the jail that's probably ahead. Ah, sorry 'bout that.

A pair who seems to be a married couple, two general human women, and a parent and a child elves are held inside jail.

"I'm sorry if I surprised you. I'm not an enemy so please calm down. Could you tell me how you all ended up getting imprisoned here in turns?"

"W-we were held here because of our debts. But, I had paid it back. But then, the amount suddenly swelled up dozens of times higher because of interests... And then they dragged us here in the end."

"I was looking for work away from home at Gramada. The job office offered me a place of work that seemed nice but then they carried me off when I got there..."

"Me was in similar circumstances myself. A trader-san who came by my village introduced me to this place for work, I was afraid I'd get sold off one of these days."

"...."

The parent and child elves keep their mouth shut. Well, guess it's understandable. You shouldn't take what someone said out of nowhere at face value.

"I'll take you back to Gramada if you're going back there. Would you like to come with me?"

After I said that, they were yelling in happiness, "Ooh finally, finally", or, "We're saved now". Yet, the elves duo are still keeping silent. For now, I should get the four to the room where the girls are resting and then talk to these two elves.

"Okay then, everyone, please get away from the iron bars. I'll break it with my magic."

I broke down the bars with pinpoint Flare Bombs one by one.

"I'm sorry, but please wait until I've recovered my mana. The people resting above are my friends, you can wait there with them."

After taking the four

there, I went back to the basement.

"Thank you for waiting. I'd like to hear your wish, either going back to your hometown or something else, so it'd really help if you could talk, no?"

"...The looks in your eyes haven't changed even though we're elves."

They finally talked.

"No no, they did for sure. Though I've met a Half-elf before, this is my first meeting real elves, I'm pretty nervous here you see."

"*Giggle*, I've never seen someone this frank either. I understand, we will believe you. Either way, we don't have any way to go back home without relying on your kindness."

The elf mother is called Dilitt, while the daughter is Tino. Apparently, a few years ago they were ousted from their village deep in a forest due to a certain reason. While they were just getting by living a simple life outside the forest, they were attacked and kidnapped by those guys. Normally, you'd think outward appearance doesn't represent an elf's actual age, but that's not the case for the daughter. Tino-chan is truly as young as she looks at 10. Dilitt-san being 120 year old surprised me though!

Both of them are beautiful. Elf ears, blond hair, jade-like deep green eyes that feel like sucking me in. She's quite well endowed too, you wouldn't have thought she's given a birth. It's just, ah yep, let's just say that a certain part is very similar to Eleanor-san's. And just like her mother, Tino-chan is very lovely too.

"What would you like to do. I've heard that elves hate hustle bustle, but how about going to Gramada for now? I know a fair share of trustworthy people I could introduce you to work at. Ah, and don't worry, none of them runs shady places."

"Yes please, we'll be in your care. I will definitely repay your kindness."

"Haha, don't worry about it. I was here mainly to save my important person myself, it was by chance I saved you guys."

"Thank you" "Onii-chan, thank you~"

OH, as expected of elves. Their smiling faces have quite the destructive force. Now then, let's get away from here.

In the end, everyone ended up heading to Gramada. Fortunately, there's

there's a carriage here, so we'll be using it until the cave. We'll be staying there tonight. Gotta raise their spirits even a bit with a warm meal. The enslaved people also had similar circumstances when I asked them about it. Nothing I can do if they lied though. Apparently Mitama and Futsuno-san know someone who runs slave trading company, I'll ask them how to free these people once we get back.
