As the event came to a close, the crowd dispersed in a noisy commotion.
I helped the girl up from the ground. Her eyes, filled with confusion and disbelief, stared at me intently.
"Where should we go? Should we go find Sylvie?"
Leon muttered to himself, but still took the girl back to the hotel. If they ran into human traffickers again, it would be hard to explain.
...
Back at the hotel, the girl's nervousness hadn't disappeared, which was giving him a real headache.
"off chains"
With a clang, the heavy chains binding the girl's feet were finally freed...
"alright!"
"Huh..." The girl tilted her head and looked at me, staring at the chains for a while, her eyes revealing confusion and hesitation.
"May I have your name?"
“…I…have no name,” the girl answered softly, still wary of me.
"No name? That's understandable..."
I wasn't surprised, even though I didn't understand slaves or what they went through, but...
Their names should have been stripped away long ago, or perhaps they simply don't remember them anymore...
"And what about your parents?"
"Dead..." the girl answered decisively, without a trace of sadness.
"Dead?"
I hesitated for a moment. How could she speak so decisively about her parents' deaths? What had she gone through to make her take death so lightly?
"Ah... I'm so sorry..."
"It's alright... every now and then a few of us die..."
Hearing the girl say that, a strange emotion welled up in my heart, compared to my own past experiences.
That's just giving up on yourself!
Locking yourself in your room and being afraid to leave the house? What does that even mean?
I don't want to think about those past memories anymore.
That doesn't matter anymore...
"Were you all captured?"
"Hmm..." The girl nodded slightly, her empty eyes still devoid of light...
"..."
"Anyway, everything's alright now..." I touched the girl's messy hair. That's how Sylvie used to comfort me before!
"Change into some clean clothes first!" After all, her current tattered clothes held too many painful memories...
I took out my own clothes, since I didn't have any clothes for little girls.
My empty wallet also remained silent at this moment, as if it didn't support me going out to buy a new outfit.
"Damn it! I should have negotiated a higher price! Poor thing, my poor wallet..."
...
Soon, the girl finished showering, put on my clothes, and walked out of the bathroom. I was stunned. She was wearing my clothes, and...
It fits surprisingly well!
"Wow! Is it really okay for someone so young to be so perfectly developed?"
Looking at the girl's figure, I thought to myself, of course, this would not shake the lofty position of Sylvie in my heart, after all, she is "a goddess"!
...
I placed the girl on the bed and slowly took off her clothes. She didn't resist, as if she knew things would go this way...
Looking at the uneven scars, I felt a strange sadness.
It's probably out of sympathy...
New wounds can be healed with the "Azure Crown," but the marks accumulated over the years cannot be erased.
Of course, her almost naked body gave me a strange flutter.
"No, no, no!"
I swallowed hard and quickly shifted my attention elsewhere.
...
After an unknown amount of time, I finally managed to erase those recent traces. The Azure Crown still consumes a lot of magic power.
By this time I was drenched in sweat, but looking at her fair, smooth, and delicate skin, I finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Even if most of the old marks are still there, they can still be covered up with clothing...
"Young Master Leon! I'm back..."
At that moment, Sylvie's voice came from outside the door.
The moment she pushed the door open and entered, I knew...
"An amazing scene has arrived!"
"Huh!" Sylvie gasped, covering her mouth in surprise, dropping what she was holding to the floor, staring blankly at what I was doing...
A sudden surge of intense tension rose within me, as if I were about to face a massive storm!
"Sylvia! It's not what you think!" I hurriedly stopped what I was doing and explained helplessly.
"Excuse me, young master Leon..."
Bang……
The door slammed shut so loudly! It sounded like a cat caught cheating on its owner...
"..."
At this moment, I was devastated, and it just so happened to be this time!
I covered the girl with the blanket...
When the door opened, Sylvie didn't show the disappointment one would feel from catching someone in the act of adultery, nor did she simply run away...
Instead, he looked curious, pressing his ear against the door, and was caught off guard when I suddenly opened it...
"I knew it..."
Sylvie gave me an awkward smile, finally deciding to listen to my explanation...
I told Sylvie every detail of how I met the girl, how I went through countless hardships, how I single-handedly slew a hundred dragons, and how I finally saved her.
Of course, her incredulous expression clearly indicated that she didn't believe it.
There's no other way, I can only tell the truth...
"Oh! So that's how it is! I thought that after I was only gone for a short while, young master Leon had already become so lustful that he couldn't wait to kidnap some little girl and want to..."
"I'm not that kind of person..." I quickly retorted, but upon reflection, I realized that I hadn't asked the girl's opinion. Wouldn't it annoy her if I took action without her consent?
"After all, Sylvie alone can't satisfy young master Leon."
"Don't say things that could be misunderstood!" I practically stood up to emphasize, though I admit, I am quite lewd.
but!
I would never show that in front of a little girl!
"Hehe!" Sylvie stuck out her tongue and chuckled mischievously before hugging the girl tightly. Her quick acceptance of the girl made me realize how strange women can be.
...
"Alright, Master Leon...we need to rest now."
"Okay, I understand."
"It's time to rest!"
"I see!"
"Then please leave, Young Master Leon!"
"?"
"Huh? You want me to leave? Where am I supposed to sleep outside?"
"Isn't there a carriage too?"
"ha?!……"
Yes, as you can see, I've been kicked out and am now lying on the cold, hard floor of a carriage. What I feel coldest is the human heart...
That girl took my place.
"My God! My breasts! My breasts!"
And so, the indescribable dream I had with Sylvie was ultimately shattered.
I almost cried...
In the darkness, I seemed to see the divine being drifting further and further away from me...
wrong?
That's... Sylvie...
No! Not at all!
That's... Oppai...
