“Wh-who’s there?!”

As soon as I entered the hideout, the blond noblewoman brandished a kitchen knife at me.

She must have found one the plunderers had been using.

“Sorry to keep you waiting.”

“L-Lord Kuro!”

…“Lord”?

“Let’s go rescue the others.”

“O-of course. I’ll show you the way.”

She started to take the lead, but I put a hand on her shoulder.

“Sorry. I know you might not want a man to touch you right now, but bear with me a minute, all right?”

With that, I lifted her up bridal-style.

She trembled in surprise, but judging by her red cheeks and her expression, she didn’t seem to object.

“I-I’m sorry?”

“If you’re scared, just close your eyes.”

“R-right! It’s my first time, so please be gentle…”

She seemed to have misunderstood. Regardless, I placed Enchant: Physical Protection on her for safety, then sped toward the room with the captives with repeated use of “Warp.”

She must be pretty brave to make a joke like that after how the plunderers may have mistreated her.

Using the map, I kept zooming forward, and we arrived in a matter of seconds.

“Is it on the other side of this boulder?”

“Y-yes, thasss right…”

She mumbled incoherently, dizzy from the high speed.

Moving aside the boulder and the steel stay bar, I stepped into the dark room where the women were being held.

I could see fields where plants that looked like black-grained barley and dark-red wheat were growing.

Those must be the ruination weeds and destruction stalks, the main ingredients of demonic potion. Ruination barley and destruction wheat would’ve been more accurate, if you ask me.

The living quarters of the captives seemed to be farther inside.

“Eluterina!”

“Leader!”

As we entered the room, two girls, one with chestnut hair and one redhead, came running up to embrace the noblewoman.

They appeared to be explorer buddies, both from noble families.

To keep things from getting too confusing, I’ll just refer to the noblewoman I first met as the “blond noblewoman.”

“I’m here to save you. Bring everyone here. If there’s anything you want to take with you, grab that, too.”

The girls looked at me suspiciously, but when they saw Eluterina nod, they let out cries of joy.

Drawn by their voices, the women who’d been gathering at a distance came over, too.

There was a total of forty-three people here, all women.

For some reason, six of them were still cooped up in an area separate from the main living quarters.

“Is this everyone?”

“There are also four doctors and one alchemist. Polina went to get them, so they should be here soon.”

“I see.”

Nodding at the blond noblewoman, I looked around at the rest of the captives.

“We really get to leave?”

“I’ll finally see my family again…”

“We’re saved. I can’t believe it…”

Aside from the noble girls I’d spoken to first, most of the others seemed more confused than happy.

Right. I guess I’d better warn them.

“I’m going to get you all out of the labyrinth.”

I waited for them to understand before I continued.

“But I can’t return you to your families right away.”

At this, some of the girls started crying or wailing. I quickly went on.

“Before I release you, I have to rescue the people being kept in other areas.
