Chapter 117. Why don't you take me as a slave

- No, what did I do! - Forget it about taking such a cute girl as a slave! It's still in front of so many people!

— but in retrospect — why do I think I'm so handsome! - That's right, in front of so many people, forcing two girls to do what they wanted...... Hey, hey, hey......

- Ahh Anyway, next time, I definitely can't do this!

"But then again...... "Ninety-nine suddenly lowered his hand, looked at his white arms, and then looked at himself in a princess dress. When I was on my way back to the union from underground...... Is this what it looks like? ”

!Surprise!

0v0???

Suddenly, Ninety-Nine suddenly realized that the biggest mistake he made today was not to take two girls into slavery in front of dozens of adventurers! Instead, he swaggered, bouncing, and walked through a dozen streets as if no one was around!!

And I don't even realize it!!

Finished!!!

My identity is definitely exposed! I said how I felt a lot of curious vision on the road just now!

Turns out I didn't wear a cape! Ahhh Oh yes! I changed my costume!! MDZZ for me!

After a brief mental breakdown, Ninety-Nine got up numbly, sighed, gave up resistance with an expression, and said in his heart: Hmph, whatever~

Ninety-Nine stayed outside for a while and returned to the guild hall.

When I went in, I found that the two girls were actually asleep on the table, with some leftover food on the side. Genna was sitting on the sidelines staring intently.

Seeing that the master was back, Gennai walked over softly and muttered in a low voice, "Master, are they ...... Asleep."

The corners of Gennai's eyes were a little red, and it was as if she wanted to ask herself something, but for some reason, she couldn't ask.

Ninety-nine floated up and touched Gennai's head, "Don't worry, it's okay."

Genna lowered her head and didn't say anything more.

At this time, Sister Wrist came over from the side and said, "Are you asleep? Well...... You might catch a cold if you sleep here."

"I'm going to take them back to the hotel."

"Eh, why don't you put them in the guild's guest room first?"

"Huh? Does the guild have a room?" Ninety-Nine was a little surprised, "Then let's be in the guild first."

……

So Ninety-Nine followed Sister Wrist to the guest room where she came to the guild.

Ninety-nine gently put the two girls on the bed with his ghost claws. The bed was designed for the Red Devil Clan, so it was so big that the two ancient girls slept on it, and the original single bed was now the same as a double bed.

Sister Wrist took out the quilt from the closet, covered the two girls, and then walked to the magic stove, raised her hand to inject magic power, and activated.

A magic ring emerges, full of wrapping. The room immediately warmed up.

After everything was arranged, Gennai, Ninety-Nine, and Sister Wrist quietly left the room.

At the last glance before closing the door, Len and Chixia were holding each other's hands and falling asleep.

After thanking Sister Wrist, Ninety-Nine and Gennai left the public household, ready to take Gennai to complete today's goals - buy stationery, go to the bookstore to teach Gennai magic, buy clothes, learn common sense, etc.

The two of them went to the grocery store first.

There is a wide variety of products in the store, and there are some papers and stationery on a shelf.

"Gennai, do you like white paper~ or do you like this yellow paper?" Ninety-nine asked in a childish accent.

"I...... Listen to your master." Gennai replied indifferently, as if he was a little angry, cold.

"Genna Genna, do you think these pens are better?"

"Well...... Listen to the master's ......."

"Genna, do you have anything you want?"

"I want to ...... I...... Nope."

"Genna, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay......

Ninety-nine looked at Gennai with some concern, anyway, buy stationery for 1 silver coin first.

"Then, Genna, didn't you use high-level flying magic yesterday, do you want to learn other magic?"

"Uh-huh......

"Oops~Gennai, what's wrong~"

"No, not really." The corners of Genna's mouth were reluctantly raised, and the wry smile made Ninety-Nine even more worried.

Then the two of them went to a bookstore. After Ninety-Nine entered, he chose 3 magic books and went to check out.

Spell books in this world are not cheap, because spell books can be used as weapons in their own right, so basically all spell books are about the same price as weapons.

3 magic books, 1 gold and 20 silver.

The female shopkeeper of the Red Devil clan (in her 20s), who wore a magician's hat, looked very happy after receiving the ninety-nine money. Then he asked, "You are the new adventurer of the Tieying Guild, I am Shinobu Kawano, the owner of this shop, if you need potions in the future, you can also find me."

"yes, okay."

The other half of the bookstore is a potion shop, which seems to be run by the owner alone, after all, magic books are far less popular than potions, and part-time jobs are inevitable.

Ninety-nine then asked, "Can we read the book here~"

"Yes, of course. I'll go next door to refine medicine first, you can call me if you have something." The shopkeeper said happily.

So Ninety-Nine began to teach Gennai literacy in the bookstore, and by the way, he learned about magic.

"This is, the fifth-level ......" "Oh" "And then this fire element magic, you remember, your words should be able to ......" "Okay"

Ninety-nine pointed at the magic array drawn on the magic book with a small wooden stick, and taught it seriously......

"Once you have transferred this magic power to this magic form, you can activate it as quickly as possible."

"Uh-huh......

Ninety-nine taught seriously, and Gennai also looked at the magic array on the book. However, Genna's eyes are always empty, giving people a feeling of absent-mindedness, more precisely, a depressed expression.

She couldn't understand why her master had taken the two children as slaves and not herself.

Ninety-nine could also see that Gennai had something on his mind at the moment, although he wasn't sure what the reason was, so he simply gave up his original arrangement. He closed the book and smiled and held out his hand, "Genna, let's go out for a walk."

"Okay......" Genna agreed dumbly.

The two of them walked down the street, Gennai kept his head down, his eyes falling on the ground.

Ninety-nine deliberately chose a path with fewer people and pulled Gennai to walk. And cast an intermediate cognitive impairment and soundproofing magic (memorized when I was reading a book in a bookstore just now).

"Genna, what are you thinking?" Ninety-Nine asked, smiling.

"No, I didn't think about anything." Gennai still looked hesitant, not wanting to answer.

Looking at Gennai's indifferent look, Ninety-Nine said cutely, "Poof, you don't look like you think about anything. If you have anything to say, just say it."

I don't know if it was because I heard my master speak, or because there was no one around, Genna said, "Hmm...... I don't know if I should ask......

"It's okay, just ask." Ninety-nine still had a natural expression, smirking silly.

And at this moment, Genna suddenly stopped, and stretched out his hands, holding 99's hand tightly.

「？」 Ninety-Nine stopped and looked back, his expression immediately becoming serious, and he looked at her with concern.

Gennai was silent and didn't say it immediately, and a few tears fell under the hanging off-white bangs.

"Why......" Genna withdrew his hand, one hand hanging weakly, and the other hand, fingertips against his neck, said with tears in his eyes, "(Why) the master didn't take me as a slave!"
