"Hmph, I'm an expert in this area, you know. When it comes to kissing, you can ask me anything you don't understand!"
Hearing that Cenomi was just a novice when it came to kissing, Skadi suddenly became a little proud.
"I kiss Goki every day, you know. Every night—mmph mmph."
"Alright, alright, that's enough, Skadi. This is something just between the two of us—I do know it was your first kiss. That bump made my gums ache. Let's skip this topic."
Seeing that the innocent Little Orca was about to spill all their little secrets without being asked, Goki quickly and awkwardly covered Skadi's mouth.
"Nona Cenomi, what are your plans next—of course, if you still want to fulfill your previous promise that we could ask for anything, then I wouldn't mind."
Looking at Cenomi in front of him, Goki joked, while also flipping through the paper documents in his hand.
Unexpectedly, Goki asked this so suddenly. Cenomi twitched her plump pink ears on top of her head, and a sudden confusion appeared in her brown eyes.
The longed-for freedom came too suddenly, and Cenomi suddenly felt a bit at a loss.
This Zalak girl, who had either been a wanderer or a slave, had always been planning another escape from prison, but had never thought about what she should do after leaving this place.
"I first need to find a way to get rid of the barcode on my shoulder. It's not that easy for a slave to become free, unless a Knight Lord is willing to help me..."
Patting her shoulder, Cenomi looked at the corpses on the ground, then at Goki and Skadi, these two people she had known for less than an hour, but who had brought about earth-shattering changes in her understanding.
"I say... Mr. Goki, if I heard correctly earlier, you still need to stay in the Grand Knight Territory for a while longer, until you completely eradicate this force—how about adding me?"
Perhaps she was a bit lost about the future, or perhaps she simply felt that the recent revenge wasn't satisfying enough, Cenomi felt that it would be best for her to stay with these two for a while longer.
"How about you treat me as a slave you two bought? It's the same as before, as a slave, I can fulfill all my master's requests, you know?"
Although the content of the words was the same, this time, compared to the desperate plea from before, Cenomi's words contained a hint of teasing.
She could tell that although the two people in front of her—one could smash a person's head open with a single punch, and the other could directly pulverize an opponent's head—they were actually pure and kind people.
Moreover, the system of slavery, which Kazimierz people considered natural and proper, seemed to them to be an extremely absurd practice.
Perhaps they really came from a beautiful country without slaves and slave owners.
Cenomi felt very relieved to stay with them for a while.
"No, no, no, let's stop discussing the topic of slaves, but if you're talking about a Knight Lord, I might actually know one... Wait!"
Goki's words stopped halfway, and he suddenly began to seriously examine the paper documents in his hand. He unexpectedly found a crucial piece of information.
"Falsifying accidents... inciting conflict... escalating disagreements—these madmen have planned an attack."
Finally, Goki saw a familiar surname and an unfamiliar name.
But Goki thought, he should know who this was.
"Mars Ling Guang—isn't this Margaret's grandfather?"
Goki looked up, smiling at Cenomi.
"I think I've found the Knight Lord who can help you—!"
Suddenly, Goki sensed a gaze peeking at him. Without hesitation, he drew the pistol from his waist and aimed it at the small, sole window that let in light.
"Ugh!"
A pair of small, silver-white horse ears suddenly retracted. Before Goki could fire, a crisp sound of long boots landing came from outside the window, followed by a rapid sound of fleeing.
"Should we chase, Goki?"
Skadi was eager to try. For her, smashing through a wall to catch someone was just a small matter.
"No, forget it, let her go."
Feeling that sharp gaze and the somewhat familiar small ears, Goki raised an eyebrow, seemed to have thought of something, then shook his head.
"We seem to have a larger group of guests to entertain—Nona Cenomi, cover your barcode."
Listening to the chaotic clanging of metal and the orderly footsteps, Goki knew that some people were arriving late.
Or to be precise, perhaps, it should have been them who were supposed to save Cenomi in front of them.
"Security Knights! Everyone, raise your hands! We have enough evidence to prove that an illegal religious incident and premeditated murder are taking place here. The Maytree Knight is responsible for this investigation—abandon resistance, otherwise, oh my goodness."
Immediately after, the basement entrance, whose lock Skadi had already broken, was kicked open. Several fully armed knights streamed in, then all stood stunned.
This enforcement had already been completed by someone else for them.
