"Huh!"
Tak!
The sound of swords clashing when Hiro tries to attack Ayu is a young magical girl who has extraordinary abilities that can match a swordsman. Able to fight in close quarters, can use magic as well as summon skeleton soldiers.
She with only her right hand holding a wooden sword, Ayu attacked Hiro casually. Hiro gripped the wooden sword tightly with both hands trying to withstand all of Ayu's attacks.
"Haah, even though you don't look serious, you are very strong."
"Hiro spirit, I will make you very strong," said Ayu.
Argeta just watched from a distance, she didn't expect that there was a magician with a Necromancer job who could fight at close range like a swordsman. Argeta suggests that they go faster to meet the Demon King, and the matter regarding Hiro can still be taken care of later. Ayu turned to Hiro who replied with a big smile. Ayu could see that even though she couldn't see Hiro's level, Ayu believed Hiro's level was still very incapable of fighting a strong enemy, if only she could form a party and share EXP it would be easier to increase Hiro's abilities.
The three of them packed up and said goodbye to the village head and villagers. Hiro still wants to be with Ayu even though the villagers feel very heavy if Hiro Gordan leaves the village. When Argeta wants to teleport directly to the Varkan Kingdom, Ayu prefers to walk even though it takes a lot of time. Ayu wants to see the world as well as test her own abilities.
In the vast prairie they followed the road to the Uwon Kingdom, but they had to pass through Uwon Village first, that's where the slaves gathered even the slave traders were there. While playing games, Ayu often goes to Uwon village but not a place of slavery. Ayu remembers that it was there that she bought equipment and potions to hunt monsters. Argeta explains that there are two types of slaves, the human race and the non-human race. Ayu sighed in surprise because slavery was very inhumane plus the same as self-destruction as a human.
"Haah, they are not afraid of sin, me swear they bad come in hell," said Ayu.
"Hahah, you're absolutely right I hope they go to hell," said Argeta after laughing.
"I didn't misjudge you," Hiro muttered.
"What do you mean?" Ayu muttered.
"You are very kind, your way of thinking is very unusual, I like you like that," said the embarrassed Hiro.
Ayu laughed amused when Hiro flattered she. Ayu's way of thinking is unusual, it's just that this world is strange and cruel, if in the previous world all humans had to help each other and there was a law on slavery, even slavery didn't exist. Hiro and Argeta are jealous of Ayu's life in her previous world because living in a peaceful world is not like their lives. Ayu is a little gloomy when they mention jealousy in real life when she could only lie in hospital when she was 10 years old.
"Actually I could only lay sick when in my previous life," Ayu said surprising Hiro and Argeta.
Ayu recounts her previous life until she was 12 years old. Hiro was immediately surprised because he didn't expect Ayu to actually suffer like that. Hiro felt embarrassed because according to him, Ayu was insensitive when in fact this girl was still very young and innocent. This young man with black hair and blue eyes as beautiful as the color of the clear sky may have to wait for Ayu to be more mature to express her love.

Uwon Village looks ordinary from the outside but when entering the village there are non-human races and even humans who wear necklaces around their necks. The sight made Ayu with black hair and black eyes shocked. Hiro and Argeta hold Ayu who will act rashly because helping slaves will be a big problem especially if the owner is a Hunter. They would first look for a Guild to make it easier for them to continue their journey. Ayu listens to all of Argeta's explanations about the Guild and becomes a Hunter, the benefits of she will be easy to pass through the village and even the Kingdom they will get. Ayu tries to calm down and forget for a moment about slaves, she delays because one day she will change the order of this unclear world.
Registration as a Hunter does not take long just to test the magic energy and physical combat to do. The blonde hair lady explained a lot as the receptionist, she looked very friendly. The woman asks Ayu to touch the crystal ball to find out what rank Ayu has. Rank, S, A, B, C, D or E. The crystal ball shines with light but, 'DUARR!', the crystal just shattered?
It wasn't because Ayu was deliberately showing off her strength, she didn't know how to arrange the crystal ball so it wouldn't break. Everyone there was shocked to learn that Ayu was above rank S. Even rank S could only make the crystal shine until it dazzled the entire Guild waiting room. Registration is complete, Ayu and Hiro get Guild cards. Hiro got rank C. Argeta herself had become a byword when someone realized Argeta's status as a rank A Hunter.
Before they left they were asked to meet with the Guild Master because there was something important to discuss. Guild Master Anox Dilpan asks Ayu to become the main wizard of the Uwon Kingdom. Ayu, who is on an important mission, prefers to refuse Anox Dilpan's request, a burly figure with black skin and white hair, can only smile because rank S has the right to refuse a given mission.
"Thank you for allowing me to refuse, Mr. Anox."
"Yes, thanks for your courtesy even though you are rank S, if you change your mind, you can meet me at any time."
"Yes, thank you again," said Ayu.
Ayu, Hiro and Argeta looked for the nearest inn to rest until the next morning because it was getting late. While in the inn's dining room they just chatted, Ayu was still thinking about the issue of slavery, she couldn't forget the inhuman things. Hiro could understand she's nervousness, considering she came from a peaceful place, her mind must have been against slavery after seeing slaves with her own eyes.
"I want to ask the two of you, if I want to change the system of this world, will you guys stay with me and help me make it happen?" Ayu asked Hiro and Argeta.
"Aah, ehmm! I will always be by your side if you want to do something like that, I will definitely help you, Ayu!" said Hiro firmly.
"I'll also help you so we can always work together," said Argeta.
Argeta smiles happily with Ayu, she has a way of thinking that will change the world for the better and there is nothing wrong if the demon race follows her as long as they can live in peace. The demon lord seemed pleased to hear the news from Agerta as Argeta teleported to report the success of she's task.
"So that woman is that type of human, very interesting."
"My king, I must return to the inn," said Argeta.
"Yes, hurry back."
