Chapter.34 Rurin’s grocery shopping

***

Two days have passed.

But I couldn’t hear any special news about Sally. It looks like Mr. Raine and the Gray boy took action, but there was absolutely zero news.

The mayor’s information and the city’s lord came forward. However, there is only one reason to say that not a single piece of information was obtained.

Celie was not a child born and raised in Grace City.

So no matter how much you ask the citizens of Gray City, you will only end up in confusion.

The conclusion is that Celie came from abroad.

If so, several possibilities arise.

I thought she was caught up in some complicated problem, but the girl still didn’t say anything.

No, there are limits to what a young girl can see and hear, so even if she wants to, she may not be able to.

But today is different again. The girl insisted that we go down to the market, saying she might remember something.

This is a positive sign. In any case, in order to find the reason why the girl became alone, we have no choice but to rely on her memories.

For that reason, he personally brought the girl down to the market.

Once it becomes clear that you are an orphan, you can live comfortably in Gray City.

But that was only when it became clear that he was an orphan.

Someone could be wandering around desperately looking for the girl at this very moment, so you can’t act carelessly.

Therefore, it is only right to find out the girl’s origins and why she wandered the market alone and find out if she has any connections.

“Shelly, don’t you remember what you were doing to come to the market? “You were sitting here, right?”

“Yes.”

The girl looked around a little and then nodded. He seemed to clearly remember sitting here.

“Do you remember what you did to come here?”

“Yes.”

A girl who said she didn’t know her mother’s name or her father’s name.

The girl who kept repeating that her mother and father were dead finally nodded. I can’t believe I remember what I was doing to get here. This is a very positive sign.

“really? “Do you remember how you came to the market?”

“no.”

The girl started shaking her head again this time. I just said I clearly remembered it, but I suddenly wondered why it was like this again, so I asked.

“Then what do you remember?”

“excuse me.”

“excuse me?”

The girl pointed in a direction with her finger.

“Mom and dad died there.”

“Over there?”

She, who had only said that her mother and father were dead, mentioned for the first time that someone had killed her mother and father. And his fingers were still stretched straight out.

“huh. excuse me!”

“good. “Let’s go Lurin.”

After saying that to Rurin, he started walking again, but suddenly the girl called out loudly to Rurin. Lurin had been sobbing since earlier, but lowered her head at the call.

“sister!”

“huh?”

“My sister is my mom.”

“Huh?”

“This is Dad!”

“what?”

And the girl says something strange. Then the girl held out her hand to Lurin.

“What is that hand… Not required.”

“Oh my mom! “Hold me!”

“Dad, hold Mom’s hand!”

“what?”

Under the girl’s direction, I suddenly grabbed Lurin’s hand and the girl took Lulin’s other hand.

No, usually when you say mom and dad, the daughter is in the middle and the parents are on either side holding hands, but why is this like this?

“Oh, it’s okay. This. Hehe, well done. “Subordinate No. 2.”

“yes?”

I hold my hand tightly in Rurin’s hand. The dragon’s hands are warm.

Rurin’s body is quite warm when she is human, so when I was in shock after learning that my parents had passed away in Korea, I received a lot of comfort from Rurin’s warm arms.

If you look at his hands, they are slender and soft. Hands that look like they haven’t had any water on them in their entire lives.

Well, isn’t it wrong to say that I lived a life of sleeping, fighting, and almost no work?

Lulin’s hands were tied up. But he seems to be feeling very good.

“Subordinate No. 2, so where are you going?”

“excuse me!”

Then the girl pointed into the distance again with her free hand.

I’m not sure if I’m saying this clearly. But now there is no other way to find out the girl’s identity other than that finger. And there is still time left.

If so, it’s worth a visit.

“Okay, let’s go.”

“Hehehe. “There’s something strange about your hands.”

“What’s strange?”

“It’s just strange. iced coffee! Your strange hands. Hi-Hi.”

“what… ?”

Rurin walked in such a high mood, and the girl continued to point to one place.

As I walked, I came to the border outside the city of Gray City. The outside is an agricultural area. And if you go further, you will reach a mountain, and if you go further, there will be a road leading to a completely different city.

If Deadran City and Grace City are located in the shape of a half moon, it would be in the northwest of that half moon.

In terms of direction, it’s like that.

“You came from a place like this?”

Nod.

The girl nodded strongly, holding Lulin’s hand.

“My subordinates don’t lie. you. “Let’s go further.”

“Why did you say your mind has improved?”

“Hehehe. Because you show loyalty?”

“You’re laughing.”

Anyway, since I’ve come this far, I have to keep going until those fingers stop. So we walked further, holding hands. Then the large field disappeared and we reached the border area where we crossed into another city.

And then the girl who kept pointing towards the sky finally pointed her finger down.

“Over there!”

“excuse me?”

“huh!”

The girl moves forward, answering my question strongly. Where the girl’s finger stopped, there was a fortress.

A fortress?

Why a fortress in a place like this?

This is the first time we have ever heard of a Gray City barracks or fortress being located here. It’s not a mountain road, so there’s no way there’s a bandit fortress.

Something was suspicious. It is a fortress that never existed before. A fortress that is not very old.

“Hug Lurin Shelly. “Let’s go quickly.”

“What is this? “Why are you letting go of your hand?”

“This is not the time to be so leisurely. “Lurin.”

I let go of Lulin’s hand and quickly moved towards the fortress. And found it. Suspicious guards in a suspicious fortress.

If you look back on your memories, there are quite a few cases where the people inside these fortresses are slave traders.

The slave trade continues to move around. It travels across countries and countries.

If you have returned from another country without knowing the news about Deadran City, it is understandable that there is a fortress here.

In other words, it means that you came to a place you shouldn’t have come. Are there still remnants of Rieden left?

If so.

If the girl ran away by chance, it is completely understandable that her parents are missing and that her acquaintances cannot be found in Grace City.

Then all the answers are in that fortress.

Just then, the gates of the fortress opened. A carriage came from the opposite side of the mountain and stopped in front of the fortress.

“Aaaah!”

Women were grabbed by their hair and dragged in roughly. You don’t have to watch the video to see that the women in the carriage were taken illegally.

The women were dragged in, and a boy covered in blood was thrown inside the fortress.

He is a boy who appears to be about 18 years old.

“Throw this bastard away.”

And the gates of the fortress were firmly closed. There seems to be a guard post looking down from above, but for now, I saved the boy and tried to teleport.

Since he was already unconscious and covered in blood, the boy probably wouldn’t remember. But if you use teleportation, Celie will find it fascinating.

However, the girl had already accidentally experienced teleportation when Lurin was running away from the market.

And the girl is not old enough to recognize what it is. And now is not the time to abandon someone.

“Let’s go to Elena Elena’s clinic.”

***

The boy woke up. The girl looks at that figure. Lurin was not interested. sitting on a chair I feel eyes on me.

Fortunately, the boy was able to survive thanks to Elena’s competition clothes. There were numerous cuts from the sword, but they were almost completely healed thanks to the power of the Great Clothing. Healing magic and great clothing are powerful against trauma.

“Mellie!”

The boy opened his eyes and started looking for someone.

Then he looks at us. I am reflected in his eyes. Then he looked at the elves Elena, Serena and Rurin Shelly, and finally he looked at me again.

Then suddenly it started running towards me.

“die! “You devils!”

The boy grabbed my neck with both hands.

“Who is the devil! Well, he’s a devil sometimes. Uhm, anyway, let it go!”

It was Lurin who took that hand away.

Lurin huffed and immediately kicked the boy. The boy, who had just recovered, was sent rolling to the floor by the powerful kick.

Cluck cluck!

The boy barely woke up while coughing harshly. The expression is distorted due to pain.

“Lurin, wait a moment. “They still think this is a slave trade.”

I quietly approached the boy.

The boy comes out again and looks at the girl Lurin and the elf.

Elves are also the main product of slave traders. If there are people who can be said to be the scum of the world and whom I destroy without any question or answer, that is the slave trade.

“Give me my little brother! Where did I find my younger brother? Mellie… Mellie… .”

The boy shouted at me again.

Here, my expectations were a little different. There is such a thing as coincidence.

So, I wondered if Celie might be this boy’s younger brother, but the boy didn’t seem to care about Celie.

He just looks into the distance, mentions the name Mellie, and then glares at me again.

First of all, the names are different.

Are girls and boys separate events? In any case, the fact that Celie came here, that this boy became like this, and that he is looking for his younger brother is all the work of the slave traders.

“So this is not a slave trade. “I think I’m mistaken about something?”

“that’s right. El came to save you from injury. So, it’s okay if you become a benefactor, not someone who will stare at you like that and attack you in a scary way.”

Elena spoke to the boy in a slightly rough voice. It’s the first time I’ve seen Elena’s voice become so distorted.

She always speaks in a soft voice.

But thanks to that, the boy slowly began to look around as if he came to his senses.

“That…” sorry!”

Then he hit his head on the ground again and started apologizing.

“Do you remember what happened before you lost your mind?”

When I asked, the boy nodded his head strongly. It seemed like he had finally realized his condition.

“I went to the slave market to rescue my younger brother… After being treated like a toy by the guards… and then… “I lost my memory.”

“Can you tell me what’s going on?”

I asked the boy soothingly.

The boy began to tell the story of the past, saying that he had been persistently tracking down this slave trade to save his younger brother.
