I Shall Survive Using Potions!

Wha, what are you doing!(Man 2)

The man came into the room and shouted at us who were playing a game.

This man isnt the first man nor the leader from a while ago.

He is another man around 20 years old.

And what we are doing is playing

Its a board game very similar to Othello.

The board and stone are handmade by me.

And the pieces are the black and white pebbles.

Where did you hide it?(Man 2)

Eh? But havent we got it from the beginning?(Kaoru)

As I said that, I showed the leather bag on the floor to the second man.

Huh?(Man 2)

The man opened his eyes wide and was stunningly staring at the bag.

And after a while.

Well that, was that so?(Man 2)

Thats right!(Kaoru)

(Man 2)

It seems like he still isnt convinced yet, but he sat on a chair in doubt for now.

Yes, I make a small size bag that the board absolutely doesnt fit in.

So of course, he isntconvinced.

And after a while.

What are you eating?(Man 2)

Cant you see it? Bread, large skewers, andgrape juice(Kaoru)

Where did you get it from?(Man 2)

From this bag (Kaoru)

How can that be~eeeeee?(Man 2)

4 little girls sat in the cage all had large skewers and bread in both hands and placed large cups with grape juice in front of their feet.

And of course, all of them are too big to put in a small bag.

Okay everyone, are you full?

Please return the skewers and cups after you finished eating(Kaoru)

Yes(3 lolitas)

And 4 large skewers and 4 large cups, which are too big but they are all put in the bag one after another.

It cant be put in! It cant be put in~nnnnnnnnn!(Man 2)

As he was shouting so, the second man jumped out of the room with fearful eyes.

Just like the first man.

Perhaps, he will also call the leader again.

Only the leader has the key of this cage, the guard cant open the cage by himself.

The reason might be to prevent stupid watchman got deceived and open the cage by himself or putting his hand on the products

Well, its reasonable.

If something happens, the guard only needs to call the leader at once.

Not again! What the hell is it this time?(Leader)

Those girls, they have something strange (Man 2)

Which one?(Leader)

Ah, uhm (Man 2)

And of course, when the leader and the second man came in, there were only the 4 of us.

There was nothing like a strange bag, large skewers, cups with grape juice, board.

There was nothing at all.

(Man 2)

Stop wasting my time. Are you kidding me?(Leader)

The leader shouted at the second man

Stop calling me and waste my time everytime you daydream. You losers.

And before that, dont fall asleep while watching!

Even they are just children but what the hell are you thinking about the duty as guards?(Leader)

something like a new employee education has begun.

I wonder if I will also be shouted at after this. (T.N: By Francette and Roland)

Oh, I hate it. I do not want it!

Well, lets leave it alone for now.

Brats, do you have a bag, play boards, and skewers ..?(Leader)

Furu Furu Furu Furu.

And 4 girls shook their heads to the leaders question.

Ah, but if he looked carefully, he might see the sauce of the skewers on the cheek of the 8 years old lolita

.(Man 2)

The second mans ear was pulled by the leader and disappeared into the next room.

It seems the sauce was not noticed. Good.

Okay, now I will explain the next strategy!(Kaoru)

Yes(3 lolitas)

honestly, what the hell is this ?(Man 3)

He appeared while complaining, the third man.

He was about early 20 years old.

My turn was supposed to be tomorrow

Damn, and I planned to go out drinking(Man 3)

Oh, what about those who were earlier?(Kaoru)

They are preaching the leader.

Its a stupid thing, making a fuss about their nightmares after dozing off(Man 3)

Oh, unlike the two before, he talks rather friendly.

Did he like talking with kids?

If so, why would he do such a job?

No, maybe he didnt know the detail and just happen to receive such work now.

In any case, I wont miss the opportunity to collect information!

Well, what will happen to us from now ?(Kaoru)

I talked with an anxious voice.

Of course, with the Scared girl posethat brought both my hands in front of my chin.

If I dont use it now, I dont know when the next opportunity will be available.

Ohhhh, you wont be harmed and theres no danger of life.

You can rest assured.

You may be able to live a good life without hunger.

Well, you may be working as a maid to satisfy your masters demand, but at least its not a heavy labor.

And theres a possibility that you become the 4th wife of a poor lower class aristocrat.

How envious(Man 3)

From living in hiding as a criminal, its really an enviable life.

The third man said so with an envious tone.

But, thats it.

A love slave, a love slave, a love slave, a love slave,

Its a crime.

No, at the time they kidnapped girls, its already a crime.

In addition to that, slaves other than criminal slaves are illegal in this country.

Selling, buying, and using.

And even the criminal slave is called slave, but thats just a type of imprisonment.

They are just trapped in prison.

There are no friendly nationals who do charity for prisoners to eat foods.

Those criminals had kind of heavy sins might easily get a deathsentence.

And those who are equivalent to the death sentence will be worked as mine slaves, or as disposable troops in wartime.

And those who got the lifetimeimprisonment are equivalent to the lifetime slaves as well.

But anyway, slaves are only criminals.

And the child who was born from a slave isnt a criminal. That child will become an ordinary commoner.

Its just their parents are criminals.

And even if the child did something bad.

The child will be properly investigated whether it was ordered by the parents or other adults.

In other words, unless there was a reasonable circumstance, theres no such thing as a young girl under 10 years old become a slave. And even if a child becomes a slave, its still a criminal slave, not a love slave.

Love slave is an illegal slave.

Trading, holding, etc, all those involved are illegal.

In other words, if I can grasp some information leaks, I can crush all of the people involved.

They cant get away easily.

No matter how high the rank of the mastermind.

Yes, thats it.

Uhm, where will you take us to?(Kaoru)

If I asked him so with a scared voice, he might tell me more about it.

Oh, it might be the mansion of a local lord of this country and a medium-sized traveling merchants.

High ranked aristocrats and big merchants will be out of the question, they donttake such a risk.

So, you wont be brought to any big cities.

Even we dont sell you, without money and power,

What can the minor girls like you do?

Therefore, the place you will be sold is eitherthe lower ranked aristocrats or medium-sized traveling merchants,

Well, to be clear, the lords wont dispatch soldiers to find and help you.

For them, Its too much trouble to dispatch soldiers to help some local commoner children, thats how thiscountry ruler is(Man 3)

Oh (Kaoru)

Understood.

Well, the place we will be sold might be different.

Then, I have to finish it before leaving this town.
