The Off-Worlder gestured to himself, "It was me. I was the one who took those girls away."
I turned to look at Katsuki for a moment before turning back to him.
"Umm… Ok? So… I guess you should let them go now, right?"
He crossed his arms in front of his chest and stood in the centre of the hall, "Those girls are no longer slaves. You can go back and tell the city lord or whoever that they are now free women and will no longer go back to them."
I tilted my head at him, "Eh? Is that what those girls told you to say?"
"Hmph! Of course!"
I really doubt they did but just in case…
"Could I hear it from them then?"
"Ha! Do you think I'm stupid?! The moment you see them, you're going to just take them away and escape! Well too bad for you, you fell into my trap by coming here!"
He then clapped his hands together and the walls around the room lit up, revealing runes had been carved into them.
