Chapter 37 - Chapter 36: Escaped Prisoner

"Misato Shizuku, your body smells so good, and it's so warm inside."

Having slipped into the back of Misato Shizuku's JK uniform, Niu Zida was now hugging Misato Shizuku's slender waist, lightly kissing Misato Shizuku's smooth, pale back, and smelling Misato Shizuku's body fragrance as he spoke softly. Misato Shizuku let out a shy, blushing groan:

"If the perverted Master could suffocate in there, it would be a service to the people."

Niu Zida kissed Misato Shizuku's pale, beautiful back, then simply clamped her impossibly slender waist with his legs, wrapping his hands around to the front to cup and playfully fondle her large breasts up and down. Soon, Misato Shizuku was flushed and her body grew warm.

"Misato Shizuku, your waist is so thin."

"Hmph, stupid Master, how much longer are you going to stay in there?"

"It's too cold outside, I can't help it."

Fondling her large breasts back and forth, Niu Zida pressed his face against Misato Shizuku's soft, warm back, feeling the smooth, icy touch of the beautiful girl's skin. Just as he was about to continue playing with the beautiful girl's large breasts, he suddenly heard a Goblin guard shout loudly. This was the signal that someone had escaped.

"Oh no???"

At this moment, Niu Zida no longer cared about playing. He quickly crawled out of Misato Shizuku's JK uniform, stepped into the stirrups, and lay on Misato Shizuku's fragrant shoulder, pulling the rope to signal Misato Shizuku to rush towards the sound. Knowing the urgency of the situation, Misato Shizuku couldn't argue, so she quickly ran over, reaching the Goblin guard's side in a few steps.

Niu Zida briefly understood the situation, learning that one of the working prisoners had taken advantage of a moment of inattention and escaped directly north of the village. He never expected anyone to dare to run away in broad daylight. Niu Zida ordered Misato Shizuku to chase immediately. If this person wasn't brought back, what would happen if all the prisoners ran away or rebelled in the future?

"Chase him! Absolutely do not let him escape!"

Although Misato Shizuku's speed couldn't compare to Yor or Aponia, it was still much faster than an average person. Besides, where could a prisoner run in broad daylight? Misato Shizuku quickly caught up with the person and subdued him with a single blow. Of course, Misato Shizuku wouldn't use heavy force, as how to deal with him was up to Niu Zida.

"Why did you run away? Is the work too strenuous?"

"It's alright???"

"Are you not getting enough to eat?"

"The food is very bad, but I can barely eat my fill."

"Then why exactly did you run?"

Niu Zida lay on Misato Shizuku's beautiful back, questioning the captured prisoner who was lying on the ground after trying to escape. The prisoner stubbornly refused to speak. Niu Zida kicked Misato Shizuku's large breasts, and Misato Shizuku didn't waste words. She directly picked up her weapon, the Shubeiate Sword, and without hesitation, thrust it into the prisoner's thigh.

"Ah ah ah???"

The prisoner immediately let out a pig-like howl, even startling Niu Zida. His original intention was just to scare the prisoner, but he didn't expect Misato Shizuku to actually strike him. This beautiful girl looked calm on the outside, but her heart was much darker than he had imagined.

"Cough, cough, cough... Anyway, you understand, right? If you don't want to suffer, then confess obediently. I don't have much patience to wait for you."

Since things had come to this, Niu Zida could only go along with it, putting on a stern expression to interrogate the escaped prisoner. The prisoner clutched his thigh, which was gushing blood. In pain, he still tried to be stubborn. Misato Shizuku unceremoniously stabbed her long sword into the wound again. This time, Niu Zida even felt a pang of pain watching it and almost wanted to stop Misato Shizuku. However, considering that they were still interrogating a criminal, he could only endure and not stop her, instead saying to the prisoner who was screaming in pain on the ground, almost crying:

"If you don't want to suffer, then speak quickly."

"I'll tell you, I'll tell you???"

Although the weather was quite cold, the prisoner, tormented by Misato Shizuku's two blows, was already covered in cold sweat, and his face was somewhat distorted. However, seeing Misato Shizuku's cold gaze, the prisoner lost his will to resist and said with a wronged expression:

"I had no choice. If I didn't go back quickly, my wife and children might be in danger in Duōléi City."

"Duōléi City? Where is that?"

"It's the closest city to Aponia Village. This area originally belonged to the lord of Duōléi City under territorial law."

"Aponia Village??? Is that this village?"

"This was originally just a wasteland, and later it was called that because everyone followed Sister Aponia. However, the church in Duōléi City has no records of Aponia. In other words, this sister was never recognized."

"The more I listen, the more confused I get. What does all this have to do with you? Aren't you a bandit? How are you connected to the lord in Duōléi City?"

Niu Zida asked in confusion, so the prisoner had no choice but to explain the whole story in detail:

"I was originally a retainer of the lord of Duōléi City, sent here to investigate the bandit group in this wasteland. The plan was to recruit these bandits to serve Lord Atair. Who knew that Karel insisted on plundering the village and getting his hands on that beautiful sister named Aponia before he would go with me to pledge allegiance to Lord Atair? I had no choice but to stay and help them. Anyway, this was originally a wasteland, and they weren't subjects who paid taxes to Lord Atair, so if they all died, it wouldn't be a big loss for Lord Atair. Who knew that these bandits were just a disorganized mob and were defeated like this."

"If that's the case, and you had clearly told me your identity, I might have let you go. Besides, why did you run away in broad daylight?"

"The Lord is naturally suspicious. If he knew I was captured and then released, he wouldn't spare me. Besides, the date I promised to return is getting closer and closer. I can only try my luck and hurry back, otherwise, my wife and children, who are being held hostage, will be in trouble."

"The Lord of Duōléi City seems to be a very cruel fellow, doesn't he?"

"Although not great, he's about the level of an average Lord. All nobles in this world treat commoners the same. If a slightly better one treats his people as property, he might offer some protection, but many nobles also think their people are no different from their livestock. To be honest, if it weren't for my wife and children, I'd eat better as a captive here than following my Lord."

"You're also a Lord's attendant, and you eat that badly?"

"I'm not a confidant, just an ordinary attendant. If I don't do my job well, being killed is commonplace. I'm just cheap labor and obedient livestock, isn't that normal treatment?"

Hearing the captive speak such heartbreaking words, Niu Zida even felt some sympathy for him. After thinking for a moment, he said:

"You go back and bandage your wounds first. Tell me in detail about the Lord of Duōléi City, and I will let you go back."
