Higawari Teni - Chapter 3

Another world where summoner of slaves exists
Another World Slave’s Revolt
「...Huh? What the heck is this?」

Immediately after opening my eyes, I was lying spread eagled.
Moreover, with hands and feet completely restrained.

「All went smoothly」
「Good, now the device」

The men dressed in robes brought some suspicious ring.
Yes, this is that.

「Hmph」

When I move my limbs, the restraining device broke with a snap.

「「「Eh!?」」」
「What the heck were you all trying to put on me!」

I slowly rise from something like an operating table, and I grab the collar of the man closest to me.

「You-You see, this is for metal stability use」」
「Yes, that's doubt」

Your punishment for failing the game is a poking on the eyes.

「Gyaaaa!? My eyes, my eyes are, aaaaaah!!」
「No matter how you look at it, this is a brainwashing device. I really appreciate it」

I discarded the man who began to act violently, and then I turned my neck in order to look for a new prey.
The men began to run towards the entrance.
Oh, they are just fast to escape.

「Self-Area Deployment ♪」

The barrier is deployed, the room is isolated from the outside.

「I will not let anyone escape?」

A few people are knocking on a door that will not open, others are turning their heads with an expression of desperation.
What can I say, it seems like this will be a fun world.



「Fumu fumu, in other words, to use this manipulation device ring you need to set it. I see~」
「Yes, that's right」

After properly throwing the men, I woke up the guy who looked leader-ish and I started to question him.
Seeing how frightened he was to speak, I put the ring on him and the effect was immediate.
He began to answer everything I asked with the ring on.

「For what purpose did you make this?」
「To use the people summoned from another world as slaves」

Yes, I know that.

「Sometimes, people summoned from another world have uniques powers. So using these powers could make our country greatly affluent」
「Ah, I see」

Seriously, it amazes me that the way of thinking of the influential people from other worlds is the same.

「We even use people without special powers as slaves. Especially women, they as sex slavesー」
「I'm not interested in hearing the sex life of you bastards, you shitheads」

I prepare to crush the guy's mouth.
However, before I could do so, the man stopped talking.
With a sigh, I put down the arm that lost its purpose.

「So that's how it is」

Afterwards, I kept on throwing questions, and then I finally understood everything I wanted to know.
Even if I hear the details about the summoned people who were enslaved, or those who were saved, it would be nothing more than self-justification.
And I don't need something like that.
Enemy's circumstances are basically ignored.

Moreover, this is enough to validate the covenant.

「Covenant. I, Sakahagi Ryouji, will make the slavery of this another world disappear」

ーーThe summoner's request is annulled. The substitute covenant was accepted.

A message like the ones that are always seen in games appears inside my head.
It's troublesome, but if I don't do this, by killing all the summoners I would be stuck in this world.

For the time being, I plan to destroy this disgusting and evil facility, but where do I start♪?
It would be boring to use great magic and erase it with one shot. Isn't there a more fun way?

Looking for inspiration, I headed out leaving the barrier behind.

「Intruder found, eliminating」

The next moment I was surrounded.
It seems that the outside also detected the anomaly, since before lifting the barrier I acted a little violently.
But hey, I don't care much because that way it's more fun.

By the way, those who are surrounding me are all young children.
Starting from my right, a ikemen(a good looking guy), a crew cut, and a braided hair.
As expected, they use slaves as guards.
A sword wrapped in flames, a spear made with ice, a baton that can shoot electricity, each one is in position.

「Oops, wait. I'm not an intruder. I'm your master」
「Masterー... Understood」

By showing him the ring, each of them calmed down easily.
I have not intention at all of fighting with these children.

「According to the master's authority, you are free from slavery」

As that man said, by using the keyword light returns to the slave's eyes.

「Eh, ah, I was...」
「Hm. I, what the heck I was doing?」
「Kyaa, no way, what is this!」

The slaves who returned to sanity began to throw their collars as the lock came off.
I see. Even though the memory of when they were brainwashed didn't remain, they were instinctively avoiding it.

Hmm, what should I do?
That's right.
Alright, from here on, its acting time!

「Everyone, please hear my story without panicking! You guys were brainwashed!!」
「「「W-Whatー!?」」」

They took the bait.
Now I will tell them about how they almost brainwashed me but I could escape.

「In this another world they don't think of us as humans! They see us only as tools!」
「Unforgivable!」

The ikemen burns with indignation.

「I'll take revenge!」

The flames of hate is lit in the crew cut's eyes.

「Cruel...」

Braided hair-chan was about to cry.

「I'll hand everyone this ring. But listen well, don't use it for anything else but to free the slaves. Because if we do such a thing we would be the same as them!」
「Of course!」
「I know that!」
「We have to help everyone!」

Without me telling them what they have to do, the former slaves voluntarily spread out.

「See you later」

After seeing them off with a smile, I also started exploring.



The slave facilities were spacious.
And the reason why is spacious it was because they couldn't build the slave facilities to gather slaves of different worlds in any place other than this, and the evidence also support this.

Since I can't find windows and the only thing I can see are ventilation openings, we are likely to be underground.
It seems that the liberation of slaves is going well, so it seems that I don't have to intervene.
They have also turned monsters into slaves, but as expected of the summoned people, they slaughter them easily with their inborn-cheat.
Even if they lost their memory, they understood instinctively how to use their cheat ability, and because of that, it saved me the trouble of coaching them one by one.

「It's goodー After all, this is how a festival should be」

Eventually, the other worlds will notice how the liberation of slaves expands and surely they will have a countermeasure prepared.

「Ah!」

When I turned around to the direction of the voice, a girl with braided hair was pointing in my direction.
Aah, the girl I released first.

「Where did you go? I was looking for you」
「Ah, sorry. I was too moving around」

This is the truth.
Sometimes an installation has a device to isolate the slaves just in case they raise a revolt, or in the worst case, a self-destruction device to bury alive everyone in the installation from the outside.
I've been acting behind scenes in order to nullify such device.
This behind of the scene work is also fun if you know that there is something to enjoy later.

「We have already freed all the children who were made slaves!」
「Oh, is that right?」
「But, there are some who were done some terrible things to them so... That's why I want you to come with us」

Ew.
AーAーAーAー.

「...Understood」

I didn't want to see it so I thought about letting them decide what to do, but now that they called me it can't be helped.
The place the braided hair-chan girl brought me was the place I expected.

The boys were gathered in one place, and awkwardly muttering something.
The girls were gathered in front of a door not so far from that place and were talking.
All the members were about 20 people. As the number of slaves were in the hundreds, these were only a part of them.

「Everyone, I brought him」

When the braided hair girl waves to everyone, they raise shouts of "ooh" joy.
The braided hair girl gathered in the center the men and women that were separated.

「Then, leader!」
「Eh?」

Without being able to think, the braided hair girl pushed me out in front.

「Why am I treated as the leader?」
「Because if you weren't here all of us would still be slaves. It's obvious that everyone wants you to take responsibility since no one would protest if you become the leader!」
「What's with that!」

Judging by how they answered me, it seems that there are already people who demonstrated leadership among the freed slaves and they are moving without binding to each other.
And those who are leading the freed slaves, are those that I release first.
In other words, the ikemen, the crew cut guy, and the braid haired girl, those three.

Being in charge of protecting the passage leading to the most important room, the summon room, these three were absurdly powerful having a cheat ability able to suppress other people.
The ikemen of flame, the crew cut of ice, the braided hair girl of thunder, the three-stranded stars.
No matter how you see it, these three people are, a protagonist, an underdog, and a sub-heroine.

「Let's liberate them」

Ikemen strongly said.

「Let's ease their pain」

The crew cut guy muttered while gnashing his teeth.

「I want to help but I don't know what should I do...」

The braided hair girl said with a trace of hesitation and with teary eyes.

No one can say who is right or not between the three of them.
All the members here present understand that.
Included me.

「So, that's the current opinion of the group leaders?」
「Yes, please decide what would you do. We will follow it」

The crew cut guy said it rationally.
Those who are here, are the representatives who can express their opinions to some extent.

I nod, and without any hesitation I declare.

「Release everyone」

The ikemen's expression lightened.
But with the next word, his expression became cloudy at once.

「Also, kill those who wish to die」

Crew cut obediently nodded this time.

「However, if there are people who you don't want to kill, try persuading them. Give up if it is absolutely impossible」

The braid haired girl finally started crying.
The girls around comfort her.

「We are fighting for the sake of freedom and liberation. Therefore, we must free them from their shackles. But surely there are people who, although released, will suffer」

Speaking with composure and gentleness, I become the center of attention.

「People who want to live, people who want to die... Such people surely exist. But I will not declare that people who wish to die has the liberty to do so. But if that someone says that they wants to live, then we will convince them. The truth is not always correct. Convince them. Only consent will light our way」

I don't know what is going through their heads upon hearing my words.

The ikemen nodded, and the girls who had the ring put on were guided to a room.
The crew cut guy tapped the braided hair girl's shoulder.
The braided hair girl shivered as she nodded quietly while crying.

...Ahー, I'm becoming weak.
I can't continue like this, I get hives when I do something outside of my character.

Afterwards, the ikemen called me.

「Thank you」
「Ahー……」

Only that.
It was only that.

Damn, from the way he talks to his smile, every part of him is ikemen.
This guy is absolutely the protagonist.
Because he even has the flame attribute.
