i strolled around the slave market, 'casually' browsing through the pamphlet.

each person was placed inside a large cage and situated within a spacious open tent.

impressive...

however, i find this slave market's organization quite commendable and conscientious.

the layout of the tents and the detailed descriptions of the types of slaves being sold were all carefully written.

i did take a peek at the specialty shop for high-class slaves... well, as expected, it was filled with elves and dark elves. occasionally, there were some refined-looking young girls, but none matched my preferences.

then, i went to the area where they handle ordinary slaves, but all i saw were commoners and young beastkin.

i guess i have to go further into this area to find what i'm looking for...

...

...

after a while, i arrived at the farthest corner, away from the center.

this place is where they gather the so-called "defective" slaves, who are deemed less valuable.

unlike before, there's no extravagant atmosphere here; the tents are simple.

nevertheless, unlike the slave traders, they seem to maintain a minimum level of hygiene. it doesn't smell bad.

"is there someone other than you?"

"there's no one here besides me."

i don't understand why this person is being displayed. why is that?

"um, it's a bit difficult to say, but you don't really look like a monster. why is that?"

"well, you know, i might not look like a monster at first glance... but this is what i am."

as she said that, the lady in front of me twisted a sword made of steel.

yeah, she's definitely strong.

but... i still don't understand why she's considered a "monstrous exhibit."

"well, that's just being strong, right?"

"i can't control my strength... it's what they call 'hero syndrome'."

"hero syndrome?"

is it related to zect-oniichan...?

why does she have such a sad expression?

"what? you don't know about hero syndrome? well, it's not something you come across often... it refers to people like me, who are considered monsters... aren't you scared?"

i couldn't understand why she thought i would be scared.
