Episode 129
I am a fox tribe beastman who lived in a mountain valley village on the Eastern Continent.
She is the youngest daughter of the tribal leader, the representative of the fox tribe’s beastmen, and a brave warrior.
‘…cold.”
But now he is trapped in a cold and cold prison.
“Now, this is the beast corner! It’s one of the most popular corners in our market!”
If I listen to what people say, it seems like I was caught in a slave market. And that too, in a slave market in the southern continent, far away from my hometown.
“Whoa…”
Where did it all go wrong?
Was it so wrong to want freedom?
“What are they? Are they fox beastmen?”
“Oh, he’s so cute. Look at his ears prickling.”
While I was crouching down with that thought in mind, I heard a loud noise around me.
“…Leave it alone, things like that are very expensive.”
“But, it’s so cute…”
When I slightly opened my eyes, I saw people wearing strange clothes looking at me with curious eyes.
“Krrr…”
“Look at him showing his teeth!”
“Wow… it’s really cute.”
I felt so bad that they were treating me like a spectacle, so I bared my teeth and threatened them, but they just looked at me even more curiously.
As a proud fox warrior, I feel ashamed that I did my best but could not scare my opponent.
“Human, get away from me.”
In the end, I couldn’t stand it any longer and grabbed the bars and cursed.
“You can even talk? Awesome.”
“Oppa, buy me one of those!”
“No, it’s over budget. A young, beautiful beast like that is too expensive. Plus, it’s from the Eastern Continent, not the Western Continent, so the premium is…”
They still treated me like a commodity.
– mate!!
“…Keheuk!”
As I was indignant at that fact, a sharp whip struck me.
The bars inside the cage are so strong, but why can’t they stop the whips coming from outside?
Is this the magic that adults talk about?
“I’m quietly mixing with my friends over there.”
The man holding the whip looks at me with pitiful eyes and says.
“You stupid little bastard.”
“Wow…”
For an arrogant guy like that, all I had to do was bite him with my teeth…
‘It’s heavy…’
After wearing a strange bracelet on my arm, my body loses strength.
It looks like nothing more than a very thin and ordinary bracelet, so why is it giving me so much trouble?
Could it be that this is also Taoism?
“Still the kid…!”
While I was thinking that, the guy raised the whip above his head again.
“Ugh…”
“That’s right, stay there until you find a suitable owner.”
I am not afraid of things like whips.
There was no way I, who was a candidate for the next warrior chief of the great fox tribe beastmen, would step down because the whip wielded by a mere human hurt.
“Kkiing…”
“Sister, I’m cold… I’m hungry…”.
“Shh, be quiet…!”
The reason I stepped back was because I was worried about harm to the fox tribe kids behind me.
If there was no one behind me, I would have resisted until the end, even if it meant breaking my body.
…really.
“You have a weird-looking tail, please lend me your tail!”
“…I told you to be quiet!”
As I quietly blend in with the group and crouch down, one scruffy little boy points to my tail and says.
He is an annoying guy who has been asking for his tail for a few days even though we are not even close friends.
By the way, what’s wrong with my fluffy, pretty tail?
Well, if you look around, everyone’s tail shape is different from mine.
Since I am the only fox beast from the Eastern Continent, you might think it’s strange enough…
“It’s fluffy~”
“Tsk.”
The little boy who was looking at my tail curiously lay down with his tail on his back.
‘…Stupid guy.’
While other children are squatting and shaking in fear, I don’t know why this guy is so calm.
Are you confident in your own abilities? No, that’s not it. Just looking at what happened back then, there is no one here stronger than me.
After all, is it that he is too young to be aware of the situation he is in?
“S-sorry! My younger brother is still immature…”

As I was looking at the girl lying on my tail with a slightly distressed expression, her older sister handed me an apple.
“…Okay.”
“yes?”
“I’ll lend you it, Tails.”
I answered her in common language, which I was still not good at. He’s probably from the West Continent, so you’ll understand this much.
“Thank you…”
“done.”
I guess I understood because I saw his older sister thanking me.
Well, of course I should say thank you for lending me my precious tail. If I hadn’t done that, I honestly would have been very angry.
“Hmm? What is that?”
As I was lying on my tail and staring at the wheezing little boy, I heard a sound from outside the cage again.
“Ah, yes! That’s a fox beast! It lives all over the Western Continent and the mountain valleys of the Eastern Continent, and is characterized by its unique beauty, beautiful tail, and agile movements…”
“How much?”
“Ah, yes! For detailed prices, please see the specification here…”
When I turned my head to see something, I saw a pot-bellied noble looking at us with lustful eyes.
“Ugh…”
The guys around me all start shaking in fear.
Well, if I get caught over there, it will be over.
Unlike the Eastern Continent, which took good care of and worshiped our clan, and the Western Continent, which was a paradise for beastmen, this place is no different from hell.
“Sigh, sour…!”
“no…!”
Look. Right now, in the iron cage next to it, a young boy, a nobleman, is being sold at a low price.
“Please buy it for me too!! Please! I’ll do anything!!”
Can you hear the sound of a mother, a noble woman, who had nothing but her children, begging for her to be bought?
“Please! Please… ow!!”
“…To a low-quality product with no eyes.”
And do you see the slave trader ruthlessly kicking her away because she is not worth a commodity?
“I hate it! Let go of this!!”
“I’d rather… kill…”
“Take care, don’t hit me. Jeba…”
And can’t they hear the screams and moans that fill this cursed space, where such things happen every day?
“If you don’t shut up and go to the waiting room, I will buy your comrades and kill them right before your eyes.”
“It’s okay. In a few days, those feelings will disappear, and you’ll end up crying underneath me.”
“Tsk, the product was damaged. I told you to do it in moderation, right?”
Really, are you guys actually human?
Aren’t you people who look down on us, ignore us, and enslave us, saying we are not humans, and are not humans but devils?
“Hey, that guy would be nice.”
The pot-bellied nobleman was looking at us, reaching out his hand for me.
No, more accurately, it refers to the little boy who was lying on my tail.
“Yes, you can sign here. Then, shall I send you to the waiting room or will you drag me around?”
“…I think the latter would be more fun.”
“I will do as you command.”
A more innocent person than me, who was sleeping without knowing anything about the world, had his identity decided with a piece of paper and a single stroke of a pen.
Clearly, in the status of ‘slave’, which is a prohibited workplace in the Southern Continent.
“You probably did a minor inspection, right?”
“Yes, of course. I have never suffered from a disease, I have never been harmed, I am completely innocent…”
I watched the two of them calmly continue their business after committing such a heinous act.
‘No more…’
I quietly rummaged through my arms and muttered to myself.
‘Can not stand anymore.’
I already have a good plan in place.
It may be a bit difficult to find out whether it’s Taoism or witchcraft, but isn’t there a saying that says that even if you go into a tiger’s den, if you keep your wits about you, you will survive?
If only I could point the small knife I had secretly hidden in my chest at that fat guy’s neck.
If you do that, you create a small gap.
Wouldn’t there be some hope?
‘At least, it would be better than becoming a sex slave for those guys.’
I am a proud fox. I would rather die fighting than become a slave to humans or something.
And who knows. I wonder if I can give the guys behind me a chance to escape.
I’m not the type of person who particularly likes helping others, but since I’m risking my life, it’s probably okay once in a while.
It’s definitely not because I have a bond with those guys.
“Human! Me instead of him…!”
After thinking like that, I tried to run towards the cage and scream.
“Let’s buy all the beastmen here.”
“…ah?”
Suddenly, I froze when I heard the words spoken by a man walking from the side of the cage next to me.
“Guest? What is that…”
“Including the beast that man was purchasing right now.”
What situation is this?
What happened?
“Hey, you. What are you doing now… hehe.”
“…I just followed the rules, but are you dissatisfied?”
“Oh, no! Hehe. By the way, it’s been a while since I last saw you? I hope you have a nice day…”
The pot-bellied boy, who was about to protest with an angry expression, bowed his head to the silver-haired boy who announced that he would buy all of us.
Judging by the way he says he buys everything without even thinking about it and the way he has a pot-bellied stomach, he seems like a nobleman of quite high rank.
‘…It’s rather good.’
I was embarrassed at first, but when I thought about it, this was actually an opportunity.
If the boy, who looked so sickly and ready to collapse at a glance, could be taken hostage, the hostage operation could really succeed.
“There, boy! Let me…”
“So, how are you going to take care of the slave…?”
“I’m only going to drag that guy you see over there. Send the rest to the waiting room.”
“All right!”
I decided to do that and was about to yell at the boy, but he pointed at me.
– Sigh…
“Tsk tsk, that person from before would have been better.”
Listening to the pitiful voice of the guard who clicked his tongue and opened the prison door, I stood in front of him.
“…………”
Whatever he does to me, I have to endure it here.
Only then will we have a chance to escape from here.
And, there will also be opportunities to create ‘gaps’.
Kill your temper and be as obedient as possible…
“You’re cute, you.”
“Krrr…”
“under?”
I showed my teeth without realizing it.
This is not the Eastern Continent where the beast people were revered as spirits.
The people putting a leash around my neck are not the villagers who fell down and begged me when I showed my teeth and brought me food.
“That’s right, that’s nice.”
“…Tsk.”
So here I am, with a leash around my neck. I walked away while being stroked on the head like a dog.
“Maybe I should brag to my friends.”
‘…Should I kill him?’
With a man who looks more like a corpse than a hostage.
.
The time when the fox beast had such a terrifying thought.
‘Everyone, did you successfully infiltrate?’
Frey, who purchased her and began to drag her around, asked her a question using the electromagnetic magic tool he had prepared in advance.
– This is Klarna. I infiltrated the first floor with my aides and some members of the Imperial Knights.
– This is Irina, I found the cabinet you mentioned. It looks like the magic isn’t complete yet… Should I just complete it now?
– This is Kania… Master, who is that woman? I’m sure she won’t be a sub-heroine again…
Then, several voices flowed into his head at the same time.
– That’s right, Frey.
Frey closed his eyes for a moment and distinguished the voices.
– I, Dmirkan, led the Demon King’s army’s combat executives and successfully invaded the area.
“Okay, then…
Finally, when a low voice was heard, he said with a smile of conversion.
“Everyone, let’s get started.”
With those words, the quest to liberate the slave market began.
