"So that's a maid uniform… What do you do in here while you wear it?" Ane asked Grape innocently.
"S-Sexual services…" Grape replied bitterly.
"So the rumors were true…" Ane murmured in a daze.
"Yes. Humans in the south are horrible…"
Grape raised her hand and rubbed Ane's ears.
"I'm so sorry I can't save you now! I promise I will save you one day!"
Ane embraced Grape again. This ti, it was much tighter than before.
Grape cupped Ane's face and said, "It's alright. Knowing that your sister is safe and didn't end up like is enough. You have a bright future ahead of you, Ane."
Tears slowly welled up in Grape's eyes. She wanted to be free, but she couldn't. If she attempts to escape, she would die. She still wants to et her family back in the tribe before that happens.
Lawrend couldn't help but raise both of his hands and rub both of their heads together.
"Nnyaa…"
"Nyaa…"
Grape and Ane's faces relaxed, feeling Lawrend's touch.
"How strong is your Master here, Grape?" Lawrend asked her.
"About as strong as a High Mage… wait, you couldn't be thinking of—"
Grape's eyes widened in realization.
"Mm. I will save all of the catgirls here," Lawrend said to her solemnly.
"Thank you!"
Grape released Ane and embraced Lawrend tightly. There was happiness on her teary face.
"How could I still be a man if I just let you suffer for years?" Lawrend said to her with a faint smile on his face.
"Lawrend…"
Ane was touched upon hearing Lawrend's words.
"Alright. Let's go et your 'Master'," Lawrend said to her.
"Yes!"
Grape nodded her head energetically. She brought Lawrend and Ane with her back downstairs. They entered an obscure hallway and arrived in front of a room.
"This is his office," Grape said to Lawrend.
"I got it. Wait here," Lawrend said to her before he opened the door and entered the room.
"Huh? Who are you?"
A bearded middle-aged man raised his head and stared at Lawrend in puzzlent. He was signing a piece of paper as he sat behind a table.
"How much do I have to pay to buy your 'goods'?" Lawrend asked.
"Goods? Hehehehe. You took a liking to one, huh? It's 10,000 gold each! The best one sells for 100,000 gold," The bearded middle-aged man laughed creepily after realizing that Lawrend was talking about his slaves.
"Show how you control the parasites inside them," Lawrend said to him and threw a stack of 10,000 gold banknotes.
"You're very eager, huh. I use this."
The bearded middle-aged man pulled a piece of gemstone under the table. It glowed a blood-red color. One would notice white strings of silk inside if you examine it closely.
"Does that only work for one slave?" Lawrend asked.
"Of course. You may not know, but this is the Parasite-Submission Gemstone. A very powerful magic artifact that is used to subdue won. If you know what I an," The bearded middle-aged man winked at Lawrend at the end of his words.
"Also, this is for my best catgirl slave. Her na is Grape—"
Boom!
Before he could finish his words, the bearded middle-aged man was suddenly interrupted by a purple lightning arc that pierced his heart.
The bearded middle-aged man's eyes were opened wide as he slowly fell to the ground, dead.
"That was too easy? I guess even strong mages can't defend themselves if they can't react…" Lawrend said to himself. His attack was so unexpected that the bearded middle-aged man let down his guard and allowed Lawrend to easily kill him.
Lawrend walked towards the corpse and grabbed the blood-red gemstone that dropped on the ground.
'Now what… how do I set her free? Would breaking this gemstone kill the parasite worm or her?'
Lawrend was stuck in a dilemma. He managed to trick the 'Master' yet when he got what he wanted, he had no clue what to do with it.
"Sigh…" Lawrend released a long sigh.
He shook his head and pulled the Storage Ring on the bearded middle-aged man's finger.
He inspected inside and saw dozens of other blood-red gemstones inside.
"I hope Grape knows how to use these…" Lawrend murmured before he left the room.
"Lawrend! What happened? Did you succeed?" Grape asked Lawrend anxiously. After all, this concerned her future.
"I did."
Lawrend nodded his head with a smile.
"Thank you!"
Grape embraced Lawrend again in gratitude.
"Mmnnyaa!"
Grape kissed Lawrend on the cheeks. Her tail swung around happily.
"Grape…"
Lawrend stared at her in shock. He didn't expect her to suddenly kiss him.
"What's going on here?" Another catgirl in maid uniform appeared and asked them.
She heard a loud booming sound and ca here to investigate.
"Zenya! We're free! Lawrend saved us!" Grape shouted in excitent.
"Free? What do you an? Are you okay, Grape?" Zenya asked her worriedly. She thought that sothing was wrong with Grape's head.
"He killed the innkeeper! Our disgusting Master is dead!" Grape explained to her in excitent.
"R-Really!?" Zenya exclaid in shock and disbelief.
"Yes!"
Grape nodded her head.
"Nyaa!!" Zenya owed loudly in happiness.
"Co on! Let's go inform the others," Grape said to Zenya.
"Right!"
Zenya nodded her head in agreent.
"Great Master, give an hour! We will kick all of the guests and round up all of the maids," Grape turned to Lawrend and said to him.
"Alright," Lawrend nodded his head with a smile.
"Let help you convince them," Ane suddenly said just as Grape and Zenya were about to leave.
"Sure!" Grape nodded her head eagerly.
Thus, the three catgirls left Lawrend and did what they had to do.
"I hope we can leave before we get found out…" Lawrend murmured to himself. It would be a daunting task to traffic these catgirls outside of the town.
There will always be guards watching every corner of the Town's Wall. He has to co up with a plan tonight, or these catgirls will be caught again.
If they are caught again, they would be treated much worse than before.
