Villainess Correction Officer Chapter 8
🕑 Added 2025-06-19 17:33:37 +0000 UTCWhat did I do after overturning the major conflict that made Naofumi into one of anime's most understandable edge lords?
I went straight back to fucking bed. Because fuck you, if you wake me up for a sham trial at literally 5 AM after I spent the last day marching dozens of miles and fighting monsters. Only to be woken up for that nonsense?
Yeah, I went straight back to sleep for another six + hours and it was well past noon when I woke up to my stomach growling at me angrily for not feeding it either breakfast or lunch.
"Well... Time to see the damage." I muttered as I rolled up and washed up with the wash bowl that was at my bedside table.
I headed downstairs, and all too quickly I saw Elena Haven, the daughter of the general in this kingdom's military, as well as Rino the adventurer, who had prior experience, and lastly Alice the mage.
I noticed all too quickly that Malty and her 'lackey' in Lesty weren't here for better or worse. And as I took in the inn's occupants that were in loud discussion, I couldn't pick out the topics as so many people were talking in a rush that was obviously big news that I couldn't pick things out.
But I heard all to clearly some of the people cursing Naofumi... Some people defending him, and others just not giving a damn frankly.
I took a seat beside Rino who gave me a nod, but Elena quickly asked me quickly and with some fear. "Jake is it true you insulted the church, the pope, and the king all at once!"
My face pinched at that utter nonsense, which made me shake my head and seeing all three girls obvious relief... I couldn't help a wry smile as I rained on their parade. "I only insulted the church and the king. They tried to frame Naofumi for a crime he didn't commit."
The three girls shared a look before Alice said with a slight frown. "I mean, it's good that you did that Jake. But-"
I cut Alice off as I said more coldly. "I do not care about political nonsense Alice... That goes to the rest of you as well. I am literally not from this world, and my only goal is to save this world."
There was a heavy silence before at our table before Rino being from a common bloodline and literally no last name said quietly. "As the Spear Hero, you are supposed to be at the same level as the king anyway. The king and the church are trying to frame the Shield Hero goes against protecting the world."
See Rino, who was a seasoned adventurer, had the right of things!
Still...
"Where are Lesty and Malty then?" I asked rather bluntly.
Elena gave a weak smile and said quietly. "Uh,m Lesty had a black eye when I saw her this morning. But Malty... She is very angry and is still at the palace, I think?"
I raised an eyebrow as I heard that Lesty had a black eye. Then it hit me that Lesty and Malty must have met today, and after I demoted Malty to bitch status. She, being an arrogant princess, lashed out at Lesty, who was previously at the bottom of my party.
"Well then... Hmm, perhaps I should take it as her not being willing to be in my party then." I said cooly then with my hand on the table, I wrapped my fingers across it for a minute before I looked at Elena and said. "Fine, I heard some interesting things about Melromarc, and I think I can grab a couple of new party members then."
But before I got up. I asked the most important question. "Would I be right that Naofumi the shield hero has left Melromarc?"
To which Rino nodded and said bluntly. "He bought a horse-drawn carriage using all his funds and fled after that sham of a trial. He didn't even meet with his party members."
I stood up and then, with a glance at the girls, I looked over at Rino and said. "Take Elena and Alice out to get some more monster materials. Any money you ladies make is for you all to separate. I will check in with you girls later tonight."
After all... In the middle of shitty japenese isekai fantasy land, I of course needed my slave harem.
-
Finding the slave trading 'carnival' wasn't difficult as it took over a large park itself with its several large tents. And its name of a carnival actually wasn't too far off, as the slave master did have a bunch of enslaved monsters to use as a form of entertainment.
As I came into the carnival, I realized that with Naofumi just fleeing Melromarc without wasting any time due to his rightful fear of the king and church lynching his ass. He obviously didn't buy Raphtalia.
And if I didn't buy her, then it was likely that she was going to die of her sickness that killed her other friend as well.
As for how Malty was going to react when I brought a beastkin into the party? I couldn't give a shit about her racism. If anything using her racism to browbeat her down would be a useful tool.
"Ohoho! What might I do for the mighty Spear Hero?" The slave master spoke respectfully with the short and chubby man gave me a bow in greeting.
The man despite being a reprehensible slaver, couldn't be called rude at least. Still, I kept a cool expression as I said calmly. "I am looking to buy... A trusted party member whom I can raise their strength to fit my specifications."
The man chuckled and said knowingly. "Yes yes, I understand quite well what you mean great Spear Hero... Tsk tsk, how painful it must be to have such a liar in your party who accuses another Hero of assaulting her!"
My face twitched at his exuberance and 'understanding' as he spoke, and as he spoke, I realized that to anyone else... Me coming here to buy a slave who, with a slave seal, couldn't betray me actually made sense honestly!
The man hummed before he said curiously. "So! What kind of funds are you working with, and what kind of slave are you looking for young man? A mount that can carry you across this rough world? A monster who can fight alongside you? Or... Are you looking for something a bit closer to our own forms?"
I gave the man a look before I said slowly. "I am the Spear Hero. I can pick out some details on targets. Why don't you just show me your stock, and then we can decide as we go. I, after all, just landed in this world two days ago."
And so Beloukas who was the slaver master's name, began showing me off his monstrous stock that were kept in thick metal cages along with magic repressing collars to also bound them to prevent them from building up any strength.
'Hmm. Do I even want Filo? She is a bit of an airhead loli who I cannot... Shoudn't touch anyway.' I mused as I looked at a large horse that had scales across its form due to it having a very weak dragon bloodline.
Then I shook my head as the man coughed and moved us on towards the humanoid slaves. Which were beastmen and the rare humans who were enslaved and as I looked through this particular tent it didn't take me long to find Raphtalia...
But I paused, as sitting right in the same cage that Raphtalia was stuffed into. Was a figure whose face was covered in bandages, and both girls began coughing as Raphtalia moved away from the bars of the cage to get away from me and Beloukas.
'Is that Atla Fayon? Where is her brother?' I thought with a raised eyebrow as even with her face covered in some bandages, I could see her tiger ears atop her head and how her hair was albino tiger-like white and black stripes.
"Oh? Are you interested in these two? I have to say sire that although they are... Cute, they both have terrible health concerns and may not even survive the next month!" Beloukas advised me rather surprisingly.
I chewed on my lower lip before I nodded and said with a wry smile. "I feel like we are fated actually... I want these two, then."
Beloukas paused before hummed and said. "Hmm, the lass with the striped hair... You can take for free, you would be saving me money in feeding and needing to bury her in a week or two. However Jake, I do have a special little product you may be interested in."
I paused wondering what 'deal' he was going to try to upsell me on. Then with how respectful he had been, I decided I could at least hear him out. "Alright show me then."
I gave the two beastkin a look before shrugging and following Beloukas who brought me to the back of the tent and then as we reached it. He began speaking as he dramatically flipped over a silk blanket that was over a cage.
"This lovely prize is a member of the Vermillion Bird clan of the demi-humans, and although her bloodline gives her a great deal of value..."
A more mature female voice spoke and cut off the slaver with a voice of velvet that caressed my ears. "But even with selling me into enslavement, my brother woudn't allow me to possibly threaten him."
Within the cage was an extremely beautiful woman with pink hair that had white highlights running through it and she was dressed in actual clothes and not scraps like Raphtalia and Atla.
She held herself with suprising poise as she sat within the cage... But as I took in her beauty, I quickly noticed that she was literally missing her hands with her having metal nubs seemingly molded over the stumps of where her hands were supposed to be.
'I know the Legendary Weapons can make super healing items especially for party members. But can they regrow limbs altogether?' I mused before I realized that just having her for a test bed in case I did get fucked up in the future would be important.
