Pujielilu turned around, looked at the somewhat thin figure, and put down the rapier in her hand.

After hesitating for a long time.

In the end, she didn't make another move and instead walked towards the dark red beam of light.

The blood gradually dyed the ground beneath his feet red.

Freytia's eyes gradually lost focus. She stared blankly at the scorched ground, her consciousness drifting away...

"Oh, Captain, come and see! That guy actually hid so many slaves underground!"

Bang!

The dark underground cage was opened roughly.

The sculpture-like Fretia finally moved. She raised her head, and the long-lost light was the only thing that could make her react.

She didn't care who went underground or what they were doing.

Everything in this world has nothing to do with her anymore.

"Oh~, these guys are all top-notch. That idiot noble is so thoughtful, he didn't forget to contribute to us even after his death~ It's a pity he refused to cooperate with us. Hmm, I should have tortured him a little longer before killing him."

"Captain, do you want us to pack everything up and take it back?"

"Captain?"

It was the first time Fretia saw this person. He looked like an elf and had the same purple hair as herself.

He just stood in front of his cage, staring down at himself.

"Captain?"

Hunos called out several times, but Arudok did not respond.

"Captain, what are you doing?"

He took a closer look and found that Arudok was standing in front of a cage, not knowing what he was doing.

He looked into the cage curiously and saw the purple-haired girl trapped in the cage.

"Is there anything special about this little brat?"

“… …”

Arudok did not answer, but just looked at Fretia in the cage quietly. The two pairs of eyes, one big and one small, stared at each other silently.

"Aren't you afraid?"

"Fear?"

Fretia asked in confusion.

“Ha~!”

Hunos laughed.

"Are you an idiot, kid? That noble is a lunatic obsessed with forbidden experiments. You're... eh?"

Hunos suddenly noticed the dense scars on Freytia's exposed white arms.

"Hey, hey, hey, seriously? How many experiments did you manage to withstand that lunatic?"

Although Hunos kept talking, Fretia, who had completely shut herself off from the world, was unable to understand the language she didn't need, and she didn't hear a word the other person said.

She only reacted to the man in front of her.

Yes, this man blocked her only luxury - light.

If possible, she hoped he would move aside.

"Want to go out?"

Arudok suddenly spoke.

“… …”

Fretia looked at him silently, without any fluctuation in her eyes.

"hehe."

Aludok suddenly laughed and stretched out his right hand towards Fretia.

"If you want, just reach out your hand—"

This day.

Fretia saw another kind of light in the world.
