Criminal Slave
While everyone was stirred up by the arrival of the thugs, I - through choking on the bile rising in my throat - could not contain the joy at the size of the profit I had gained. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
There were 3 criminal slaves in front of me. I quickly use Piercing Hand ability on them to check their 「Substance」1.
First, the young man who suddenly kicked me. A large Foresian with a coarse look.
------------------------------------------------------
Motus Etoute (モータス・エトゥート) (23)
・Material Human Form
(Rank 4, Male, 23 years old）
・Skill Fores language Level 4
・Skill Business Dealing Level 3
・Skill Staff technique Level 4
・Skill Farming Level 3
Empty (19)
------------------------------------------------------
He looked like he had great strength, and yet his Fores language skills were better than mine, and his staff technique was also quite good. For now, his business-dealing skills may be a good target.
Next. The woman who stomped on the back of my hand. Her looks were attractive, but there was something lewd in her gaze. She was sexy, but at the same time, she gave off a sultry atmosphere. As expected, it looked like she was a Foresian as her hair was brown.
------------------------------------------------------
Nithura Puha (ニトゥラ・プーハ) (26)
・Material Human Form
(Rank 6, Female, 26 years old）
・Skill Fores Language Level 5
・Skill Sexual Technique Level 4
・Skill Haircutting Level 2
・Skill Grooming Level 2
Empty (22)
------------------------------------------------------
You can understand their life if you look at their skills. If the previous Motus was probably the son of a farmer who did not work seriously and was forced out of his home, this woman was surely someone raised in a town or city or sold as a slave at a young age. As proof of that, she has no skills that would show she had acquired them for her family occupation, like farming. Instead, only her sexual skills have improved. But at this age. She had already passed her peak as a prostitute.
The important skills were....that sex technique was useless for the current me, but the high-level Fores language was attractive. Ever since she joined the bandits, she had probably been tricking the would-be victims with her charm and honeyed words.
However, speaking of the best catch, it was this guy. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com

Iric Wicker (イリク・ウィッカー) (28)
・Material Human Form
(Rank 3, Male, 28 years old)
・Skill Fores Language Level 3
・Skill Ruin Language Level 5
・Skill Business Dealing Level 3
・Skill Drug Compounding Level 4
・Skill Physical Enhancement Magic Level 5
・Skill Hand-to-hand Combat Level 2
Empty (22)
------------------------------------------------------
At first glance, the man who spat on me at the end truly did not look like a criminal at all.
Ruinians are generally larger than Foresians. And they are also more muscular. However, the man in front of me was just a little shorter than the woman Nithura, with a bony frame and thin. His face was covered in acne, and his skin was also dirty. And at the same time, he had this withdrawn look, as if he had been bullied for many years. Since he had blonde hair and blue eyes, you can at least tell that he was a Ruinian.
Apart from magic, his drug compounding skills also stand out. Perhaps he was the lazy son of a rich medicine dealer. Seeing his high level in Ruin language, he was probably not the descendant of immigrants like Tamaria or someone from Celiphasia.
But, perhaps this Iric was the strongest among the 3. After all is said and done, he was the second magician I’ve seen in my life. Physical Enhancement.....could it be, perhaps, he was the criminal who bent the iron bars mentioned before? www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
If so, then this is a big problem. And if, the criminal slave were allowed to escape, Myluc will lose face. If he escapes, then we will absolutely have to catch him, but that was not all the time. Zelkova just took up his new post as the commander here, and he still does not believe in Myluc’s innocence.
This was not good. I must help Myluc, who has taken such great care and raised us until now. Un.
By the way, this was my status at this point.....

The other day, my soul age reached 7 years old. The time when I became an insect before was probably equivalent to a little over a year in a human lifespan. Only, it will take a little longer for my physical age to catch up there. I am scheduled to be put up for the next auction when barely 6 years old.
Now. It had become like this. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com

Thank you for the meal.
Hmm, this was a necessary measure. Now, Myluc will be in trouble if the criminal slaves escape, right? This was in no way for my self-interest, you know. This was for the sake of social justice. Also for repayment. Un.
In addition, these people were part of the bandit group that had committed heinous crimes repeatedly. They even went violent at me just a moment ago, didn’t they? So there was no need to hold back. Right.
……I couldn’t stop smiling. To think I became a magician this easily. I wanted to try using magic once. If possible, I would like the ability to shoot fireballs or something, but in this situation, I could not expect too much. That would come gradually, but for now, let’s see this ability that can even bend iron bars.....huh?
I had been trying to break the stone paving in front of me with my right hand but it felt like my own fist is about to break instead. Somehow, it does not work at all?
「Noor! Are you alright?」
Dona quickly noticed and came running. Apparently, she had a misunderstanding of me writhing in intense pain, seeing me hitting the ground with my right hand. She seemed to imagine the damage from the kick just now to be quite severe.
「Ah.....sorry, I’m fine now」
Jusa also looked at me with concern in his eyes, but he was holding back the criminal slaves from behind, so he does not come over.
「Jill」
Then, Myluc’s cold voice rang out.
「Bring my bow and arrow from my room」
She was holding down the criminal slaves together with Jusa, but after receiving the order, she quickly retreated to the back. Before we know it, the courtyard has become completely silent.
After Jill came running back to the courtyard with the bow, Myluc lightly flicked the bowstring to check its condition. After carrying the quiver on his back, he called out to the two of them.
「Jusa, that’s enough. Jill, go bring me 3 random pieces of wood from the sawmill」
3 fist-sized wood pieces. She brought them over, and then Myluc had Jill and the 2 guards hold them.
「Jusa, give the signal. Then each of you can throw those woods in whichever direction you like」
The children looked at it all in puzzlement. They all could not understand what he was going to do next.
But, I know what kind of skills Myluc had. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
「Throw it!」
At the same time as Jusa shouted, the pieces of wood flew off in completely different directions. But, there was *piin* sound of bowstring as I followed them with my eyes.
2 of the pieces of wood fell onto the stone paving. The last one is sticking to the wall of the stable. An arrow pierced each of them in the middle.
I let out a sigh. The children's eyes widen. No one probably knew Myluc had such a special skill.
And yet, there was no smile on his face.
「All of you criminal slaves」
With a calm tone, he stated while turning around.
「I can do the same thing on top of a horse running at full speed. There will be no second time」
I will kill you if you act thoughtlessly. This is a one-time warning. The next one will probably be the real thing.
That is right. An intelligent, modest, and polite slave trader. That is just one aspect of Myluc. Just by taking a single thin layer, the ferocious desert warrior underneath comes out in full. This is why Saharians are fearsome.
The criminal slaves also became obedient after understanding the other party’s strength.
「Jusa」
Myluc ordered in a business-like tone.
「Put these people in the Western room. Give them food at least.....the leftovers will be enough」
「Yes」
Jusa roughly pulled their chains. They seem to have difficulty walking since they can not take proper strides, but he did not go easy on them. He probably judged that he could not be lenient on them after seeing how they suddenly attacked me and did not understand their own status as criminal slaves.
Once the criminal slaves disappeared beyond the north stairs, Myluc started talking to the children.
「There’s nothing to be afraid of. They will not be let out of the punishment cell until the day of the auction. Their hands and feet will be tightly restrained so there is no danger. So don’t worry about them」
The children replied one after another in scattered voices after Myluc said that to them. Myluc nodded at that and returned to his office. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
But I was holding my head. What happened? My ability, Piercing Hand, can not be cated unless I recognize the other party. It is impossible unless I see them or touch them directly. I have to find a way to enter the punishment cell, one way or another. But, even if I turn into a bird, that place does not even really have any windows.....
Also, I had finally taken Physical Enhancement Magic at great pains, but for some reason, it does not work. I wonder how I could make it usable.....
「What’s the matter? Does it still hurt anywhere?」
Dona is peering into my face.
I hurriedly stood up and put a smile on my face. www.ihavesinnedtranslation.com
「Noo, I’m fine already. Thank you」
