The Hero Took Everything from Me, So I Partied with the Hero’s Mother! Chapter 255

Serena's POV

"You, even though you're just a kid, you've really decided to buy this... One silver coin (銀貨) for the purchase, two gold coins (金貨) for engraving the slave mark... In total, you need to provide two gold coins and one silver coin. Give your blood right away."

"I heard that in the royal capital, slaves cannot be sold for less than one gold coin... Is that true?"

"You know a lot. That's about the general trading. In auctions, it's allowed to be less than that... But two gold coins for the slave mark is a common rule. Sorry, but that's how it is."

I injured my finger with a knife and handed over my blood, asking them to engrave the slave mark. Then, I paid the price and took Rosalia with .

"Shall we go now?" I suggested.

Rosalia cried out, "Auauawawa," her words incomprehensible and filling the room with her distress.

"What's the matter?" the slave trader asked.

"Let's leave," I urged, feeling a sense of heaviness from Rosalia's anguish.

But Rosalia continued to cry out, "Auauauwawa" her wailing persisting.

Confusion overwheld as I sought answers. "What does this an?" I asked the slave trader, hoping for an explanation.

"Oh, Rosalia's mind is damaged. She can't speak properly," the slave trader heartlessly revealed. "That's why her price was low. She's considered broken, like junk, so she's cheap! Didn't you know?" he added with a smirk.

"I had no idea..." I confessed, my voice filled with regret.

"I see, that's unfortunate," the slave trader replied. "That's why we started at five copper coins. Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to let go of a villainess who seems to be involved in many bad things. And don't feel sorry for her or be kind... She's despised by the Hero Clan, you know," he cautioned, his tone a mixture of caution and disdain.

The Hero (Yuusha) Clan again... What on earth is it?

"What is the Hero (Yuusha) Clan?"

It's better to ask again here, just in case.

"Huh?! You don't even know that? They are the ones who have the blood of the forr Hero (Yuusha) party, including Hero (Yuusha) Zect., who got Kohane from Ceres-sama and beca king while Ceres-sama and his wives went to the god world. They are the descendants... There are royal families and noble families of Kohane, as well as local nobles... Well, the royal family of Kohane is genuine, but the authenticity of others is doubtful... Oh, this is a secret."

"I understand... Thank you for telling ."

It's been several hundred years since Zect-oniichan died.

But maybe Zect-oniichan... was not blessed with any offspring.

And Dad is addressed as '-sama.'

Well, whatever... for now, Rosalia's treatnt cos first.

"Ah? Auaaaa!"

With Rosalia, whose mind has completely broken, I left that place.

***

"Hehehehe, ahhhaaaa!"

"Is this Rosalia?"

"Her mind is completely gone, isn't it?"

"Yes, we need to hurry back to the inn and treat Rosalia."

I have a bad feeling too.

There's soone who has been looking at since earlier.

"Oh, I forgot sothing... Wait here."

"Is that so?"

"Take care."

Leaving the three of them behind, I continued walking.

I observed which direction they would go, and it seems they're coming towards .

'Thank goodness.'

"Hey, uncle, you've been looking at since earlier. Is there sothing you want?"

"Oh, it looks like you won the bid for Rosalia... What do you plan to do?" he asked, his eyes filled with curiosity and ill intentions.

"What do I plan to do? That's what you're wondering, right?" I replied firmly.

"You're probably going to hurt her and kill her right away, aren't you? After all, there's no obligation to keep a slave alive!"

The conversation was taking an unpleasant turn.

"That's not my intention. She's a beautiful lady... I want to live with her... That's what I'm thinking!" I declared honestly and sincerely.

The man burst into mocking laughter, disbelief evident in his eyes. "Hahaha, living with that monster? How peculiar..." he sneered.

Another man, who was with him, nodded in agreent, his expression twisted with disdain. "Yeah, just like he said. And you should know that Rosalia is despised by the Hero Clan, so I won't say anything bad... It's better to kill her quickly," he spat, his words filled with contempt.

The Hero Clan again... It makes angry.

The third man chuckled condescendingly. "Hahaha, that's right. The Heroes won't do anything wrong, that's why they punished Rosalia... She's a bad person," he stated venomously.

"But if she becos a slave, wouldn't her sins be forgiven? Doesn't this situation seem strange?" I questioned, trying to shed light on the hypocrisy of their judgnts.

The first man's patience wore thin, his face contorted with impatience. "Huh? Can't you stop already? She's a bad person, so 'killing' is the only solution," he snapped, his words filled with malice.

Another man chid in, giving sinister advice. "If you don't want to be hated by the Hero Clan... it's better to get rid of her," he warned, his eyes gleaming with a twisted sense of logic.

"That's right, and besides, once she's broken to that extent, she won't be able to recover," the third man added, his tone certain.

They're openly showing their murderous intent.

It seems like they think it would be bad to keep Rosalia alive.

"I want to keep her by my side as a beautiful woman, so why not?" I confidently stated.

The first man looked at sternly. "But keeping her alive would be a bad idea... Don't you understand?" he asked, his voice filled with concern.

The second man, with a warning tone, added, "The Hero Clan despises her... If you protect her, you might bring misfortune upon yourself."

"Well, since we feel sorry for you, we'll buy her for one gold coin and her slave mark for two gold coins, totaling three gold coins... How does that sound? It's a fair deal, isn't it?" the third man suggested, his voice tinged with manipulation.

"Sorry, but I won't let go of Rosalia... That's final," I declared firmly.

Their initial show of sympathy vanished, exposing their true intentions. The first man's patience wore thin, and anger seeped into his voice. "Wait, you brat!" he snarled, venom dripping from his words.

The second man's threatening tone followed, his words carrying a chilling promise. "You... We treated you kindly because you were a kid... but if you continue, we'll kill you," he growled, his eyes burning with malice.

"..."

There's no one around.

I'm glad they chose such an empty place.

It's a concentrated embodint of malice, that much I understand.

'Dragon Breath!'

Even in this form, I can unleash flas that can incinerate the three humans in front of .

In an instant, I burned them all...

I actually wanted to abduct them and interrogate them, but it's impossible in this location. There's no other choice.
