Chapter 360 - Information

Slavery was long gone in Imperium but some of the people still took slaves albeit secretly. They couldn’t afford to openly show the slaves in public as everyone knew what will happen to them.

Still, only a few people like those degenerate nobles secretly hide slaves. No one has the guts as once the public found out, they will face the three great countries.

The three great countries were the ones that illegalized slavery in the Giza continent. No, they were forced to do it. The incident regarding the slaves at that time was continental so they couldn’t afford to ignore it.

"It seems that this sub-world isn’t under the Giza continent’s jurisdiction," Souta said while looking at the bandits.

"There are billions of sub-world so it was impossible to observe everything," Alice replied to him.

"But this world has a connection with Imperium. Those bandits were saying something in Norman language." Souta said as he pointed at the bandit who was shouting ’Charge’.

"You are right. If this sub-world didn’t have a connection with Imperium then it would have a different language." Alice nodded at his words and she looked at the bandits.

Souta glanced at her and smiled, "I’ll leave it to you."

"Is that an order?" Alice asked as she raised her eyebrows.

"You can interpret it any way you want," Souta said as he opened his arm and he sat on the branch of a tree.

"Okay, I’ll obey the commander’s order," Alice said as she turned to the giant snake and her expression turned serious.

...

"Argh!!"

"Help!!"

The bandits were screaming in fear as the giant snake devoured them one by one.

The power level of bandits was too low compared to the giant snake. Their attacks and weapons didn’t even work against the snake’s armored-like scales.

They couldn’t fight back at all.

This place was their base for a long time and this was the first time that a powerful monster attacked them. It would take an army before they could take down a monster of this level.

They could just sacrifice the slaves that they kidnapped to buy them some time but it was futile. The slaves just died in a flash before they could even escape.

"F.u.c.k! F.u.c.k! F.u.c.k! Why did this happen to me?!"

The bandit leader cursed as he looked at the giant snake who was killing his subordinates one by one.

He was living a life of a king up until now so he didn’t expect this to happen to him, to his territory.

"Hmm...?"

The bandit leader blinked his eyes as he felt that something changed. The savage atmosphere turned upside down and the giant snake stopped moving as it stared at him, no, it wasn’t staring at him. It was staring behind him.

The giant snake was ignoring his subordinates.

Just what...

A sound of footsteps could be heard behind him.

The bandit leader flinched when he heard it. His heart was beating wildly from tension and he slowly turned around to see what’s behind him.

He was thunderstruck the moment he saw the person behind him. His eyes opened widely and his jaw hung open from shock.

He saw a woman with an angelic yet seductive aura at the same time. The woman had long silver hair that dr.a.p.ed down on her shoulders to her back. Her golden color eyes with red hue were like an exquisite gem. The color of her skin was white as snow and her body was perfectly proportionate.

The woman was emitting an aura that could be seen by n.a.k.e.d eyes. This only makes her appearance more ethereal.

Even the subordinates of the bandit leader were stunned at her appearance. This was the first time they saw a woman of this beauty. All the women that they’ve tasted before were nothing compared to this woman. Even those noblewomen were trash.

They forgot about the existence of the giant snake that brought terror to them. All of their attention was focused on this woman.

This woman was none other than Alice.

Alice frowned as she saw the looks that they were giving to her. They didn’t even bother to hide this kind of look. She couldn’t help but sigh and think that these people were sc.u.m.

"Sc.u.m..."

She muttered as the air around her tightened and a spear appeared in her hands. Her mana swirled around her spear before she thrust it forward.

[Dozen Piercing Stab]!!

Several sharp energy flashed from the spear and it pierced the body of the bandits one by one.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

Most of them died instantly at Alice’s simple attack. These bandits were too weak. They were as powerful as F-rank in Imperium. Slightly stronger than an ordinary person.

"And then..."

Alice squinted her eyes as she glanced at the giant snake. She tightened her grip on her spear and her mana burst out of her body.

Boom!

"What?!"

This energy fluctuation... was so high that it made everyone he knew felt like ants in front of this woman. The aura of this woman was even higher than the military general of this country.

Swoosh!

Suddenly, Alice disappeared from his vision. She was so fast that his eyes couldn’t follow her movements.

Ha?

After a few seconds, he heard a loud "thud" sound behind as if something heavy fell on the ground.

When the bandit leader turned around something sharp pierced his shoulder and nailed him on the ground. He looked over and saw that it was the spear of the beautiful woman.

Argh!!

He couldn’t help but groan in pain as the woman twisted the spear. He lifted his head to looked at Alice but what he saw horrified him.

All of his subordinates have a huge gaping hole in their c.h.e.s.t or stomach. Blood was pouring out of their wounds. Most of them were dead but the people who were still alive were going to die at any moment. They’ve lost too much blood.

He didn’t even see how the woman killed the snake. Everything was so fast that left him speechless. His mind couldn’t process all the things that were happening.

The one who took him back to his senses was the voice of the woman.

"Hey, I have a question for you..." Alice said as she stepped on the c.h.e.s.t of the bandit leader.

"W-What... is it...?" The bandit leader asked while stuttering.

"Where is this place and tell me everything that you know in this world?" Alice asked in a cold tone.

"O-Okay..." The bandit leader found that her question was weird. Nevertheless, he still answered her question. He slowly told her everything that he knew about this country and this world.

While he was telling her everything that he knew, Souta was already beside him listening to his words.

After an hour of question and answers, they extracted all the information from the bandit leader.

"You have no use to me so I’ll kill you painlessly," Souta said as he grabbed the head of the bandit leader. He glanced at Alice and smiled.

Alice turned around and her spear turned into a small metal pole. She then placed it inside her pocket.

Souta tightened his grip on the head of the bandit leader and channeled his mana.

Boom!

The body of the bandit leader exploded and turned into a bloody mist.

After that, he stood up and patted his hands. He saw Alice was checking to see if the other women were still alive.

"Don’t bother it. You can feel it, right? You can feel that they are not breathing." He said to her.

The women were the slaves of the bandits. They used them as a shield from the giant snake so it was impossible for them to be alive after taking an attack from that monster.

"Yeah, but..." Alice wanted to say something but decided to shut her mouth.

"The problem is that races of this world aren’t that many. There’s too few." Souta said to her.

"Yeah. Human and demi." Alice nodded at him.

According to the information that they’ve gathered from the bandit leader. The human in this world was only an ordinary human. There were no sub-races such as barbarian, magical human, witch, or high humans.

And for demi, there’s only elf, dwarf, and beast folk. The only race of elf in this world was high-elf. There’s no wood elf, ocean elf, or moon elf.

That’s just how it is.

So Souta would have a problem as there’s no demi with green skin in this world.

Alice sighed and she removed one of her bracelets. She then threw it at Souta.

"Here!"

Souta caught the bracelet and observed it. "What’s this?" He asked while looking at her with a confused expression.

"An artifact for disguising," Alice replied.
