Chapter 293 – 293. Landing on the East Continent 6
A demon enters the bamboo forest with rough steps and confidently walks towards us.
Wearing traditional Chinese clothes, he was well over 2 meters tall and had a huge body, and he was so happy that he proudly opened his arms and welcomed us.
“Are you walking around confidently thinking whose area this is? Huh,~?”
The bamboo forest has a strange grasping technique, so you can’t walk in a straight line.
Moreover, the fact that they are confidently coming towards us even though there is such a distance means that they are resisting this technique.
“Who is that guy?”
“I’m the boss who manages this forest.”
Haha! Is it even possible to use a small amount of power? “You’re so damn arrogant!”
“Not really, but I am blessed with his powers. Because among our demons, only high-class people can use magic.”
This is information that Sakamoto did not mention. It means he still has information.
I guess we need to re-examine it.
“What is the power of ‘wandering’?”
“That’s Sato-sama’s power alone… This entire area will end up lost due to Sato-sama’s power.”
Even though this guy got cut like that, there was still something that hadn’t burned?
“Sakamoto, do you still know something?”
“It’s because you didn’t ask!! “I answered everything that was asked!”
“I’ll listen to it slowly later, so prepare yourself.”
“Hi!?;;”
Aside from that, what should I do now? The fact that he came means that our existence has already been discovered.
In the worst case, there is a chance that a guy named Sato will hear about it, and if it is in his area, that probability increases dramatically.
“I have no choice. Chaff, from now on we’re going as planned.”
After patting me on the back, Ayla told me to execute the plan made in 〈 Time-Room 〉.
Ayla took the divided team inside and moved somewhere.
“Haaaaan? Where are you going and what the hell! Wow!! [Earth Break]!!”
As he kicked the ground and shouted, the ground began to shake violently.
Since demons are generally a race that uses magic power freely, the scale of the attack was as if the entire bamboo forest was shaking.
“Do you think there is a place to run away to?”
“Someone ran away”
“… What?”
-Chaenggang~!
When she closed the distance in one go and swung the karambit, it bounced off the armor on her right arm.
Since it has already been caught, the urgent priority is to deal with it as quickly as possible.
Haha! A really fast guy? No. This is not fast!”
“Once you get rid of it, you can rest assured”
-Clap!
“Huh…?”
“I’m going to die”
Maybe I was relieved for a moment by the fact that I trusted the armor and defended myself, but for a moment, my defense became lax.
It was clearly revealed through his actions that he had no practical experience yet.
If you do that in front of the enemy, you should die.
He cut off the head in one go with another karambit that was hidden.
The blade was probably too short for his thick neck, but it cut off his cervical vertebrae, but the remaining muscles and skin left his head hanging backwards.
Red blood spurted out from the nearly cut cross-section.
I thought it would be strong, so I swung it with the intention of finishing it off in one go, but it was surprisingly weak.
It’s strange.
“Sakamoto”
“Huh.?”
“If you lie… This is what happens.”
“Well, I never lied!! It’s true! Hehe!!”
Meanwhile, Russell silently thrust a dagger to Sakamoto’s neck.
The calm, murderous look in his eyes made me realize that he could kill me at any time.
“If the master is having a hard time because of people like you, you know that, right?”
“Really! What to do now! What if I kill the manager here?”
Surely. Since the person involved is dead, the safe place has also disappeared.
It would be better to get out of here if possible.

“If this is an operation… It’s not good!”
“Don’t talk nonsense, just guide me”
We, walking with Sakamoto at the forefront, are now in a market crowded with demons.
There were long rows of merchants on either side, selling unknown fish, things that looked like junk, and all kinds of accessories.
“Sir… It’s not good here. This place.”
Ruselle frowned and leaned on my left arm.
The reason why Ruschel felt so disgusted and fearful was because of the things sold by miscellaneous merchants that she occasionally saw.
“Now~ It’s cheap~ It’s cheap~ We sell it here for everyone from children to adults~~!”
“Well, well, a lot of virgins came in today. If you buy one, we’ll give you one as labor force.”
It was none other than a slave.
This place was selling slaves without any hesitation, including various races excluding demons, at low prices.
It was fortunate to be treated as a slave.
In addition to the tribes whose arms or legs were shackled, there were also slaves who were chained.
Even worse, they sold severed heads, dismembered human bodies, etc., And there were even living slaves without limbs.
In my eyes, this place is crazy.
It was difficult to maintain my senses. It felt like anger was taking over my head.
Instead of treating living people as objects, I wanted to give them all as dog food.
Fortunately, we had our heads covered with cloth.
If they got caught, they would probably be anxious to get us.
“Sakamoto. Are demons also man-eating?”
“Not everything… This is the area in the west with the worst perverts. And because the demons are so diverse…”
Even so, it is strange that cannibalism is done unilaterally and left unattended.
I was so disgusted that they were even selling it like this that I felt bad.
“Ruschel, are you okay?”
“I’m scared… Of the people here… With their fingers like fruits or snacks… Wow…!”
In addition to Sakamoto and me, there are also Russell and Davia.
Ayla takes care of the rest and moves to another place.
There is also a lane there, so there shouldn’t be a big problem in terms of commanding it.
“Lucelle, close your eyes. Possible Guido”
“Yes… It smells in here too!?”
“West, magic power is gathered there”
Davia, who covered her entire body with a brown cloth, lightly pointed with her finger to an oriental building towering like a pillar in the distance.
In addition to the pillars, there were buildings that were quite developed and sophisticated compared to here.
“Is it there.”
“Yes, that’s right! “That is the center of the West”
“Vulgar demons. Where is your family?”
“No matter what anyone says, my family.!”
“Sakamoto. Soon it will become dangerous here too. “Didn’t you want to be somewhere else if possible?”
If you give one away, you get one.ㅂ
We still need the information this guy has.
If it doesn’t work out, go to 〈 Mind Control 〉.
“I just killed someone so casually, so how can I tell them where my family is.!”
“I guess that’s true too… But you really don’t know anyone?”
“After becoming the head of the household, all I did was work. Well, it’s just being in the bamboo forest every day.”
What’s a little strange is that when I came to the East Continent, I couldn’t see any border networks, walls, or anything like that.
It must be a disputed area. But there isn’t one, right?
Apparently, Sakamoto said that there is quite a bit of military power in the West as well.
“What is the enemy’s military base?”
“Military forces are deployed around the pillar over there. The rest is mostly neglected, so the pervert here is also a mess. It’s not this dirty inside. “I’ve only been in once”
“How?”
“When I received the mission. After that, I mostly stayed at home except for the bamboo forest.”
After work, go home. When I wake up from home, I go back to work.
It is an extremely ordinary lifestyle.
“In short, you have to go there to find the demon.”
“Where on earth am I and the rest of my colleagues.”
“You don’t need to know”
Davia also became sensitive after seeing her disgusting sight, and her fingertips were generating blue electricity.
“Guide me without hesitation, or I will kill every living thing here. Of course, including your family”
“Ugh.!”
“Unlike in the West, I will kill you all alive and slowly. Everyone in this area will scream and die slowly. “Because of your wrong choice.”
“Such unreasonableness.!”
“Don’t forget that your every action puts the lives of people here at stake.”

Despite the disgusting sight, after passing through the alley, there was a shabby house in a fairly quiet place.
-Kkiik.
“Ah! It’s my brother~! Oppa~~”
“My. “I’ve been there”
“Uh? “Is the person behind you a guest?”
“Uh? Uh. Uh! That’s right. Now, should I say hello?”
A small girl who seemed to be around the same age as Kyu walked over to Sakamoto, hugged him, and bowed her head shyly.
“Brother! But why did you come early today?”
“Huh? “I worked hard today and got a vacation.”
“Really!? So are you playing together today? Let me play~~”
Even if they are demons, a child is just a child.
Behavior and thinking age group.
When Davia saw that, she slightly bit her lower lip and walked away, as if she felt uncomfortable.
“I will patrol the surrounding area for a while.”
Even though the enemy had come to the house, seeing the young demon who knew nothing was difficult to do anything about.
This is why they say you should not sympathize with your enemy.
“My. We’ll play later, so could you please leave for a moment? “I have to welcome guests”
“I’m sick of playing. Oppa didn’t keep his promise.”
“Sorry, let’s play later”
A young demon puffed out his cheeks, opened the shabby door, and went into the next room.
Sakamoto looked at us with a very nervous face.
“In this house. Mai and my grandmother are all. My grandmother is at the market now, and she will be back when night falls”
My hands are shaking slightly. There was a person in front of me who cut off his enemy’s head without hesitation, and even though he knew that, he brought me home to my younger brother, so it’s not like I don’t understand.
“Mai and Grandma are everything to me… I beg you, please… Please save me…!”
Damn. I can’t do this.
I started to hesitate.
