Chapter 14 - Start anew

The facility we were brought is an isolated warehouse which can be said that it will collapse. And it cost 10 gold coins. It was not a fair price but after he said that theres a spring included just behind the warehouse, I didn't complain anymore. An acre of land with a spring is enough to be a small camp.

Now that two of my plan has been executed, I will not head to the next one. Weapon introduction. When I came here, I was dependent on the use of the maids' magic due to me not having one. But that's okay, any magic that can be formed as explosive is enough to become the fuel of the bullets. Manipulating it a bit and there's the one similar to a smokeless powder.

I also picked the sex slaves because they pique my interest. If they can hide their status from appraisal power then they possess power greater than a 4th ranking adventurer. A 4th adventurer in this world has high chance of being a magician due to their prowess that made them in that rank. Even I, a man who use guns can barely ranked from 6th to 5th at that time.

Now that I remember it, my memory suddenly relive the corpses of those people I failed to protect. It sadden me and made me feel anger deep within my soul but if I can't wait then there's to point on getting revenge.

They already possess both the blueprints and my memories. It's not surprising if they have pre modern weapons. However, they won't be able to recreate any of that since it require great dedication to even create a light smokeless gunpowder gun. An artillery is even out of question since it needs an immense amount of resources much less a tank that terrorize its surrounding.

I tossed a sack to the slaves after we enter the warehouse. It's been left for too long so the inside is expectedly dirty.

Also, I will change their group names and in the future, I will give them their own name. It's kinda uncomfortable by calling them sex slaves each time.

"From here and forth, you will obey every words I order. Fretnot though, since I won't be doing something that you find unachievable. Not until the day comes when I needed it all the most.

For now, I will divide you into two groups. The one in the left will be the ones that will do the house chores meaning they will be maids. The other will be the ones who will work outside, they are the workers.

Starting today, you all will work as a team, I don't care about your race or any sort but you will do your job starting with those sacks. Those are ingredients, there are also meats inside, a number of you must've known how to cook so I will leave it to you. The others, do clean this warehouse. Got it?"

They all sync when they reply, as if they were actual robots. But they are still human so they have curiosity which is a good way to start my plan to made connections with them.

"Uh... Uhm... Mast... Master, w-what will we do in the future?"

A young woman ask, she wore a rag clothe but has a clean skin. She's a sex slave but her bosom is below average.

"You all will fight."

Once I said so, their face masked fear. It is a normal reaction.

"Don't worry, you won't be fighting with a sword. With the weapon I will soon introduce, you all will feel like undefeatable soldiers. Until then, rest, eat, and work.

Oh right, there's a spring to bathe just behind the this house. Some of you clean there, I don't like the smell of rotting meats."

After that I left them.

The crowded forest seem surreal, the plants is moving the air is deafening. Oh, right. I am sleeping.

My name is Elsa Brestia, first princess of the Brestia King and currently on the run. My father, who is the king of Brestia Empire was killed by his own cousin in a coup after declaring his new dynasty. Along with my mother, they suffer as they die. I can only run at that time without looking back.

At my arm is Elysia, my younger sister. She was a childish kid and likes to play a lot, but now she has become what my mother wants the most but what my father hates the most.

"Sister, are you okay?"

It pains me to see the gentle voice of the girl in my arms as she ask, her tone is weak and I can see her lips cracking. It was a sign of dehydration which I can't help but only see.

We've been on a run since two weeks ago, and now I don't know where we have gone. The servants only said that we should run northward, and there we will meet someone. I even hear Sister Myka said that she knows someone that might help us there which I doubt.

I've been suspicious to Sister Myka since the summoning, being too clingy to the irregular hero. But my suspicion got even worse when I overheard her pursuading the man who possess a powerful weapon that can destroy a single country to use it for our own selfish desire.

Truly, it was selfish and I, too don't know what I will say to the God if such weapon cause an extinction of another race.

But the world is too cruel for us.

"I'm fine, you should worry about yourself."

She smile, but gently. She wrap her arms around me and I can feel her warmth transferring in my body.

"Don't worry, Sister. Sister Myka told us there's someone she knows here, that person is the hero she always accompany, Fred."

Is that so?

"Don't worry, El, I heard a town just near here when we're travelling next to a road. Just a little more and we'll be able to eat delicious food."

Just as I was starting to comfort her, a person suddenly came within my vicinity. I sense that there's someone getting near.

It has a strong dense mana in it and can certainly be said as a threat. But even I have no more power to spare since I've used it to my younger sister.

I can only mutter words that made me helpless.

When that person came, I saw her figure. Yes, she's a woman but with a brown skin. But what truly got my attention is her ears, they were bunny ears, when did they got a dark skinned bunny race?
