Alright, Let’s Turn Slaves Into Adventurers - Chapter 48
Chapter 48 After escaping from the Empire, we cleaned up in the blank area
And moved from the lake to the wagon again.
Arzu fell asleep as if she was tired from playing.
Elsa put Az’s head on her lap and covered her with a blanket.
The carriage rocked quite a bit, but it was sleeping peacefully.
Elsa looked at Az with her benevolent eyes.
The role of coachman was taken by the owner, and next to him was Alexia.
The two horses regained their strength after eating water and grass and pulled the wagon vigorously.
“Over there.”
“What is it?”
“Az in the labyrinth… how is it?”
“Oh, are you bothered?”
Alexia gave a slightly pleasant smile.
“No, what. She used to come back crying a lot. It seems like I’ve improved a lot while being with you guys.”
“It is great hypocrisy to send it while knowing that.”
“I know. But it’s necessary. I don’t want a pet slave.”
“… I’m doing fine. She is still immature as a leader, but she has already become a dashing warrior.”
The owner recalled her memories. Az, who was covered in her blood and cried.
She quarreled with another adventurer and lowered her head as if asking for help.
But she laughs a lot now.
Compared to her early appearance, she has become much brighter.
“I think it would be better to keep him by his side. That kid is too dangerous. Whether fate loves or hates….”
“Why? Do you have a lot of problems?”
“Well, quite a bit. The problem is that Az tends to step forward rather than scare her. It’s not reckless, but he might one day lay down his life for you.”
The owner listens to the words with an expressionless face.
Alexia didn’t know what she was thinking.
She’s still not long since she was enslaved. She didn’t quite know the owner’s personality or mindset yet.
“… I see Keep an eye out in the labyrinth. The important thing is to keep earning. There is no need to take unnecessary risks with the emotions of the moment.”
“Of course. We are your slaves after all. If they are not abandoned, their lives are more important.”
The master thought that the conversation between a slave and her master was a bit odd. However, it is the first time she has become a slave master, and of course, the three of them are also the first slaves.
This was the natural look of the four of you now.
Elsa and the owner took turns and Alexia drove her carriage.
The owner replaced Elza’s lap pillow so that Azu wouldn’t wake up.
She is sleeping soundly.
I finally got out of the Empire. She doesn’t really stand out anymore.
This is an area where the influence of the state is insignificant.
There are several countries, but except for Spartia, they are not large in terms of military or national power, so it is a blank area.
If there were resources or mines, the story would be different.
I stepped on the traces of merchants who had passed before me.
That is the history itself of merchants who risked their lives to carry luggage, earn money, and then buy and carry luggage with the money.
The owner, a merchant, passes on that road.
I’m soaked in emotion for a while, but Elsa looks at it and smiles.
“What is funny?”
“No, no. I think the owner is unexpectedly suited for a bride.”
“A bride? Are you kidding? You can’t even make money.”
“Because clergy seek poverty…. Well, they are different.”
They. You must be talking about the Sun God.
The master frowned at the thought of the Sun Faith.
Some of his money is now being spent on a statue of the Sun God Church.
It’s embarrassing.
“It’s really hard these days. The lord’s son is a complete puppet. What is the lord doing?”
“They said he was bedridden with an illness. Surprisingly, the disease….”
Elsa didn’t say anything more, but he knew what he meant.
“No, he must have been poisoned. It’s common.”
“Alexia, you deliberately blurted out your words. That’s why you won’t be on your side.”
In this way, the story was leaked with Elsa’s sermon.
Alexia listened to the sermon with a sorry expression.
There is little that a single merchant can do. It seems like yesterday that he protested and ended up in prison.
If you want to expose the lord’s son’s infidelity, you’ll need to call in someone from the kingdom’s central administration.
However, it is unlikely that they will come to such a periphery. It is a matter that is within the power of a single merchant.

But if the Church of the Sun continues to occupy the village, it will look bad.
The Sun Alliance, which the Sun God Church is now effectively ruling over, was originally a different country.
There were many small countries and cities around it, but it was reorganized as the headquarters of the Sun God Church.
Rumors between the public are not very good.
It is said that the only people who live well are those with high status in the Sun God.
There were also few merchants.
There are few monsters, it is peaceful, and food seems to be self-sufficient.
In many ways, it is the exact opposite of Spartia.
There were several countries in between, so there was no noticeable conflict between Spartia and the Sun God Church….
I have heard that Barbaroi, the Spartan god of wealth and war, had a good relationship with the King of Creation, but had a relationship with the sun god like water and fire.
I don’t know what will happen in the future.
While thinking that, Az suddenly stood up and raised his sword.
The owner turned over in surprise, but Azu didn’t care and looked around with an expression that didn’t look like he had just woken up.
“Something is coming.”
“What do you see? There seems to be nothing… Stop talking for a moment.”
At Azu’s actions, the owner stopped talking for a moment.
As Azu got off her wagon and looked to her left, she could clearly see sand dust rising.
It is an amazing sensation. The owner thought, ‘He deserves to be evaluated as a warrior.’
“If it’s a wagon, it might catch up. I’m going to hit it first here, is it okay?”
“I’ll leave that to you. It is your domain.”
“Yes! All right!”
Azu answered happily.
Elsa and Alexia also got off the carriage and stood next to Az.
Appearing from the sand dust was a pack of black wolves and a huge two-legged werewolf leading them. In one hand he holds a huge hatchet with a jagged blade.
“That… Etrokines. Is it a bad day?”
“Is that Etroki? It’s the first time I’ve seen it.”
Elsa and Alexia said.
Az is concentrating on her opponent.
“It’s something only you guys know. Please explain.”
“Oh, sorry. That’s Etroki. It is said that a wolf warrior who sacrificed to the wolf god became a monster. He is also called the king of monsters in the plains.”
“Can you win? I hate to do this, but if I throw away my luggage, I will somehow….”
“A horse could run away alone, but it’s difficult for us. We have to win.”
Alexia slammed her battle ax into the ground.
“So stay in the carriage. Don’t let the horse run away!”
Etroki howled in the distance. At the same time, the black wolves rushed in unison.
