Okay, the colosseum .

Yesterday……no, it’s already the day before . Mhm, there’s a lot less people than the day before .

Or rather, the type of people is different in the first place .

The day before, there were muscular people gathered that looked like they would be wall-punching agents, but now there is a lot of people with children or couples .

There are fountains and flowerbeds and benches around the colosseum, furthermore, there are stalls selling drinks and light snacks, it is a suitable place for relaxing .

That’s why this kind of people is not strange .

Or rather, since it was before the gladiator tournament, the day before was probably the strange one .

ofc, why would muscle guys gathering be normal

Leaving that aside, I need to hurry up and fulfill my objective .

The reason I came to this colosseum is because this place has the least obstructions and is in the middle of the capital, the castle town .

Meaning, it is the best place to shout from in this capital .

Next, I want some height, so let’s find a place out of sight .

Hm, the shadow of that dry deserted fountain in that deserted corner seems just right .

Alright alright . I walked there and burned it into my eyes . This is my safety net .

Then I looked up at the sky .

……the sky is beautiful . Mhm . I also looked at this properly .

Then all I need is courage! And so, deep breath .

Okay . Then quickly . Yes, go . [Teleport] .

Teleport to……about 300m above in the sky, GO .

wait what

My vision is suddenly filled with blue and I can see the town far below . Ooh, beautiful .

But that was just an instant, I started falling immediately .

Abababababababa, this is scarier than expected! It’s not just on the level of your butt feeling itchy!

I wanted to immediately [Teleport] behind that fountain on the ground already, but if I don’t do it here, it would be waste of [Teleport] MP! Okay, take a deep breath! Now, come!

“[Ketorami—!]”

Scream! And call him! My voice rang out loudly . No matter where he is in the capital, he should hear me .

Just, a problem……just now, when I shouted, there was the feeling of MP flowing out though……n, no, it’s fine . See, my long underskirt has [Reduced Movement-Type Magic MP Reduction] and my MP has increased, so it’s fine, right? There won’t be anything like, not enough, MP, right?

Okay, then, then, I’ll just [Teleport] to the ground!

With this it’s okay! With this it should be okay!

……it didn’t, activate .

Even though I should have enough, it seems I ran out of MP for some reason .

……no way .

… . great planning

The ground is steadily approaching .

Bad, this is bad this is bad this bad . Wai, seriously? I’m going to die here like this!?

Nonono, the apron had [Reduced Fall Damage] so I should be okay, ah, nono, I’m not okay! I’m not okay! The apron is off right now! I took it off!

Aaah, I, I need to find, some way to survive this somehow, even as I thought, the ground quickly approached .

And, suddenly, a beautiful grey swept through the corner of my vision .

‘Wind wall!’

With that reliable voice, an invisible wall……or more like, a cushion supported me .

After that, I landed onto an even more fluffy thing . The impact was mostly killed off by the cushion, so there wasn’t much .

‘Are you an idiot!? Calling out someone just to commit suicide!?’

……somehow, it seems like Ketorami made it and saved me by a hair’s breath .

“Ni, nice catch . ”

‘Not just nice catch, if I hadn’t come you would be dead okay!?’

Ye, yeah . I really cannot raise my head towards Ketorami-sensei, yes .

Uwa—h, my heart is still thumping . I saw a revolving lantern too .

Mhm, I’m never [teleporting] into the sky again……

clearly a bad idea from the start

Even though I didn’t want to stand out, I was exposed to an amazing number of gazes the instant I landed .

Well of course, it’s Ketorami-san after all .

When such a huge wolf sudden jumps in, everyone would look .

Ah well, there’s no time to mind that .

“Ketorami, do you know where everyone is right now?”

‘Know……I was with them until just now . ’

For now, we will just draw more attention by being here, so I had him head there .

Of course it is far from a full sprint, but I think it’s still quite fast .

“What’s happening there? Is it better for me to not be there?”

‘What’s happening……a—h……sorry, I don’t really know . But……if you go everything will probably be solved, or more like……’

Oh my, Ketorami-san is unusually hesitant . What’s wrong?

‘You are probably the only one that can stop them . ’

……nn? Wh, what does that……mean?

a tradgedy

Ketorami-san lightly ran (But it still took all I had to desperately hang on!) and we finally arrived where everyone is .

It is the port southwest of the colosseum .

The outskirts of the port, it feels abandoned . Mh—m, it has the feeling of the place thugs would hang out .

And because of Ketorami-san’s concerns, we stopped quite far away .

‘Hey, I can’t really decide if it’s okay for you to show up at that place ahead . ’

“Is it that grotesque? Or is it erotic?”

‘I don’t really know the situation . I only saw part of it . ’

I see, then can’t be helped, and it might be hard for Ketorami-san, a wolf, to understand human circumstances .

‘So, you have some kind of technique, to look from afar right? Use that and look from here, then decide . ’

Ah, come to think of that I had that . I forgot .

O, okay, then……[Far Sight]

The distant scenery expanded all at once and I could see it clearly……there was……a scene from hell .

!?

Suzumoto drenched in blood swinging his Katana with a frighteningly cold expression .

The one being cut all over by the katana, is a person with his hands tied behind his back .

Next to Suzumoto, is Kariya healing that person as he is being cut . He is also scarily expressionless .

Ah, they’re saying something .

Then another slash . That person’s chest was mercilessly sliced apart .

And that wound was mercilessly healed by Kariya .

Then they said something, then another slash again . This time the arm was severed . A scream rang out and a puddle of blood spread .

And Suzumoto was drenched in blood again .

Kariya indifferently healed again .

A—h, this is, that? Torture?

……very hellish!

uwah

And slightly further away, there is a person enclosed in a case of ice and having water poured on him, water torture, and Hagasaki-kun carrying out that water torture . He is also expressionless .

Next to him, President is making that person drink alternatively from two flasks with a smile filled with madness . One is probably poison and the other an antidote or recovery medicine .

Then at further away, people bound and gag are being watched over by Kadomi-kun, Hariu, Katori and Toriumi . A—h, they are probably waiting for their turn for the [Sealing Manacles]……

… .

This certainly will be solved if I come out, probably .

At least, it feels like that madness of their’s will stop .

really?

And so, I quickly walked into hell .

As I was steadily walking, the people on watch noticed me, but the people torturing didn’t notice .

But for now I gestured for those on watch to stay silent .

I advanced further and lightly tugged on the blood drenched sleeve of Suzumoto . O—i, notice me— .

The instant I tugged, he turned around with so much killing intent that I unintentionally took a step back .

Then Suzumoto looked at me with a suspicious expression for an instant, quickly realised and stopped letting out that killing intent, showing an indescribable expression .

Kariya also seemed to have noticed me . His expression relaxed .

Now then, before they say anything, I need to say something and create a setting .

“Hello hello . I’ve saved Mary, so rest assured . ”

After all, right now, I am a brown hair green eyes onee-chan that is not as white and not even a maid, it will be a problem if they accidentally called me Mary .

just permanently silence the problem

It’s better to not let it be known that Mary-san escaped on her own .

Surprise attacks are strong . I really felt that during my escape .

If it wasn’t a surprise attack, I probably could not have defeated those men .

That’s why it would be a little bad to expose that Mary-san escaped on her own .

An extremely weak and incompetent idiot that ate the food without realising she is drugged, a human from this world .

With that setting, it will be easier in the future .

If they think I’m weak, I still have a chance to win .

hmm… . maybe with all equipment?

“Ah, thanks . How much do you want for the reward?”

Suzumoto matched my story for now, so let’s keep going .

“Let’s see, it doesn’t have to be something with form you know? For example, the information of what happened until I saved Mary?”

First I want to get a grasp of the situation . Like why it became such a scene from hell .

“Ah, yeah, first… . . mhm, I think you’ve heard from Mary too, but you know we were drugged at that inn right?”

Yes, I know . It was delicious .

“We were also put to sleep with that, we woke up at noon yesterday . ”

E—h, I only woke up this morning though……is this also part of their corrections? Early-waking correction?

“Then we noticed that both Mary and the owner were gone, so we split up to search . We met you then . ”

Ah, I see . That’s the setting, okay, understood .

“Then we asked you to secure Mary . After that, when night came……a letter was passed from person to person to us from these guys . In exchange for Mary, they wanted us to handover someone among us as a slave . ”

……a—h, I can tell, I can tell what happened afterwards .

“I followed the instructions to show up here without weapons and with manacles that make magic unusable, we planned for everyone to launch a surprise attack when Mary was being handed over but……they said they couldn’t hand Mary over, so everyone that was hiding, snapped . ”

O, oh……I kind of want to see that . Everyone must have fought like demon gods when they snapped .

“Then I had Ketorami bring me my katana and joined in……we cleaned up in a few minutes, so after that well, we did what we were doing to that guy and were trying to get him to spit out where Mary is……and you came . ”

Mhm . Understood . I understood how the scene from hell came to be .

I’ve understood that rather then this world’s female, a foreign male is probably more expensive . Of course .

And then, mhm . This might be the most troublesome……they don’t treat me like a slave enough……for others to believe that they won’t avoid becoming slaves for the sake of a slave, I’ve properly, understood that .

……we need to think of a countermeasure .
