烏爾莉卡卡剛抵達阿爾及爾後的第一個想法，同時也是最強烈的想法：382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbcXFl3J2Z6
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgrSOlWBD1
「好熱！」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJiajcJ9s3i
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0j168we3WB
與長年處於寒冬或涼爽氣溫的家鄉不一樣，這個地方熱得叫人感到不可思議，幾乎要讓人懷疑掛在頭頂上的是不是同一顆太陽。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmVUlRpn6Ri
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibRBYgL5Zw
明明已經邁入九月了(烏爾莉卡自己大略計算的)，氣溫依然超過三十多度(這也是烏爾莉卡自己猜的)。即使是身處於海港碼頭，她卻絲毫感受不到半點涼涼的海風。刺眼的陽光毒辣得讓她無力招架，讓人不知該如何渡過接下來的日子。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjcUCFou7Tr
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgmJGo4KWbI
當烏爾莉卡和其他俘虜被趕上岸的時候，現場馬上被一大堆興致勃勃的群眾包圍住。他們人數之多，就連她也數清圍觀者的人數。由於太陽帶來的炙熱，這裡的男人和女人(包括野獸人)幾乎都穿得很少。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm5GcdQeoJR
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMyUvWpgQ03
群眾裡頭有野獸人，也有人類，但並不是為了對俘虜表達輕視或同情而來，單純是出於純粹的好奇心，就像是欣賞稀有動物一樣。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubFpDLoiq7
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEFEL5q8Mw
「這些人類的皮膚好白喔。」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcppLRmd24U
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpapocQY0kb
「是啊，比其他地區的人類更白！」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhmahKu9SUX
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡui0JpiBWQC
「就連髮色也幾乎都是淡淡的耶......啊，那邊有個銀頭髮的女人！」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmSFoyvjZih
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFM1vNtQzN8
「她旁邊還有個銀髮的小女孩嘞，想必是她的女兒吧？」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcvXXmXeKBn
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7na6FsFIfM
「如果能把這對母女買下作為小妾，鐵定能好好享受一番。」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwesWErKKkh
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLkCyy1re5
「你少做夢啦！這種一看就知道是極為珍貴的商品。假如沒被船長或咱們市長給挑掉，到時候在奴隸市場上一定賣得超貴。」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifi5IfSTgv
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSYJZDgVK4f
烏爾莉卡聽見周遭傳來各種各樣的談笑聲，她雖然聽不懂但也曉得不是什麼令人愉快的話題。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfuP7IItaee
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVt9Cu88ha
「母親......我好害怕.....」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZhO4r0ZbdY
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlH2Q3OOrej
烏爾莉卡感覺到莎薇靠在自己身邊，因此她回握住女兒的小手。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMk8KrkJGA4
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5JOVSsMIz4
「我絕對不會放開妳的。」烏爾莉卡安撫著女兒。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCvpNk5qSFu
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2H6poIlaBx
她的視線越過黑壓壓的人群，城市的容貌隨即映入眼簾。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQQPPEoIXg
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgui6HQZO6
它是由石灰岩石堆起的白色城市，沿著山坡建造成而。它在靠近山頂的上端非常狹窄，越靠近海邊的區域則非常長、非常寬。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡptCFMWJPcE
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsStJfhnkn9
然而，這座外表呈純白色的城市，帶給烏爾莉卡的卻是充滿黑暗的未來。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxlZH08oMbA
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMqvO9AfB0n
「這就是我未來居住的地方嗎？」她喃喃自語：「還是說，我會被賣到更內陸的地方，永遠也見不到大海呢？連隔海眺望自己故鄉這件事都做不到......」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSfrdgqI6M
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XZzMA44vv
正當她心亂如麻之際，隊伍前方忽然傳來不小的騷動，另外還有海盜喝斥俘虜的聲音。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeQ8cMo9zbp
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBHOrsb7mKz
有別於剛才的炎熱，一股冰冷的寒意爬上烏爾莉卡的背脊，又像是心臟被一隻冰冷的手給握住……不祥的預感，迅速地在她的心頭內擴散開來。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojY4nTzsXW
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu22h0IExuL
「所有男人往這邊走，女人則到那一邊去！小孩也是，把小孩從父母身邊拉開來全部送去別地方！」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsxssryGVr
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFWFqiRDMJh
果不其然，她驚覺到海盜正在將他們捕獲來的戰利品分門別類：男人、女人，以及超過五歲的孩童全都各自分為一個隊伍；父母與孩子硬生生地被拆散開來。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoeFFHR47Ye
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGcdgq4lfUW
「母親！母親！」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQzRHRWuDj
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGLb42tx0K4
突然間，一名人類海盜硬是把莎薇從烏爾莉卡手中拉開。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTn7dU420J2
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZMIlHrhUx
「你做什麼？快放手！」烏爾莉卡想都沒想就衝上前，當場拍開對方的手臂。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltL7RXZAU3
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKr1TMlf5Mj
「誰都別想碰我女兒。」她低吼道。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsxiNCsqpQ6
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6wEDL07aG
「臭女人，妳找死啊！」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5J1dvHruz3
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZpyPGwPxjJ
這名人類海盜朝著烏爾莉卡的臉頰揮出一巴掌——那是毫無創意、毫無技巧的一擊。他大概以為烏爾莉卡會樣過去他遇過的女人一樣，站在原地呆呆地驚恐尖叫，然後被他打得中昏過去，或許再補給腳以防外一。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡafz4y5EpvS
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5lQFcW0YW
他錯了。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5h4weSPEn
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0kqURHHqgD
更精準地說，烏爾莉卡確實是個女性，這一點無庸置疑。但是，她卻沒有像小女生般大哭、尖叫，呼天搶地——不，她只是輕輕的、輕描淡寫地側身躲開了空洞的攻勢。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmN0gCP5g7i
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWPrOvxsLOP
下一秒，烏爾莉卡回以對方一記正拳，拳頭狠狠砸在人類海盜的正臉，當場把他的鼻梁給打歪。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCyprG1KyGZ
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkKJbX7dfxl
當他飛出去與人群撞在一起的同時，從鼻孔飛濺出的鼻血好像還在空中化成一道弧形噴泉，結果現場圍觀的觀眾全都開心鼓掌叫好，歡呼聲熱烈得讓人以為在看什麼好戲。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKcWaeTiQH7
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgcod1VMRSo
不論身在何處，人們似乎總是喜歡看熱鬧；這是烏爾莉卡的心得。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRvxvd6Aql
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnzQw23SFe
「這婆娘發瘋了嗎？」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYa2iaJWrM
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNL8XwcbpDt
「快點找人制住她！」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpi1fqLFeff
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ4RdroQhKh
「等一等，為什麼這女人這麼厲害嗚啊啊啊啊啊啊噗嗚！」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZAMm4hdFp
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ12e9B1hLxq
一連幾個人類海盜撲上前，但卻被烏爾莉卡接連擺平，不是被擊倒在地上，要不然就是被丟到碼頭下方的海水之中。見到這幅景象，其他俘虜都也紛紛哭喊起來並抱住自己的親朋好友。人類海盜和其他野獸人彎下身子，試著把抱成一團的人類俘虜們拉開，粗暴地抓著他們們的肩膀和手臂。但他們仍緊抱著彼此，彷彿已合為一體。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoMdRHiRvFq
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNGFwQqr82
現場頓時陷入一片混亂。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡatBipSFHXJ
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn2qZVY8NxP
「我絕不會讓你們這群人渣帶走我女兒，絕對不會——咳！」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIE4PUnELyG
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlY9re8YO12
猛地，烏爾莉卡感受背部傳來一記重擊，整個人摔倒在地上。她同時被好幾雙毛茸茸的巨大手掌給壓制住，身子完全動彈不得。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDUdkSxlcRh
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7FL8rYYiqy
「野獸、可恨的野獸人......」即便烏爾莉卡的技巧再怎麼高明，面對天生的體型差距仍毫無招架之力。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhzTVTkvyo2
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrPvR0n0cT9
這時負責管理秩序的守衛也抵達現場。他們手持短棍等器具，猛打俘虜們的肩膀或手背，痛得俘虜不得不鬆手。父母、孩子與親友們再度被連拖帶拉回自己的隊伍，不論怎麼尖叫哭鬧都沒有半點用處，甚至可能換來更嚴厲的毒打。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DdYoFAd0f
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBkt4CbJLw3
「母親，妳還好吧！」莎薇試著爬到母親身邊。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTInvPPfrJ
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrux3mM2wvI
「該死的母女倆害我破相，找死啊妳們！」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbM9MHBH1V
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbUGb0Lq6FP
烏爾莉卡抬起頭，赫然看見剛才毆打的那名人類海盜走了過來。他舉起粗壯的木製短棍，準備朝女兒嬌小的身軀狠砸下去。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡid9HXLwBvD
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIEieUIfGfu
「小心，莎薇！放開我！快點放開我！」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3w71OkU9pG
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgigRwXf2Dd
烏爾莉只能無助地望著棍棒落下。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDuRBjuJxjx
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsX15AIi59Z
忽然間， 一抹身影及時護住莎薇的身體，替她擋下這一擊。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnmkzFr2FMh
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8NK3YmhvRx
「艾......艾塔奇！」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL2BpZuQaJU
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwX4OnjWNRO
就連烏爾莉卡都不由得喊出對方的名字。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEo2hipg4Ag
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP05U8oWf5o
「拜託不要反抗，烏爾莉卡夫人。」艾塔奇壓低身子，用沙啞的聲音對烏爾莉卡說道：「莎薇不會有事，我保證嗚嗯！我保證她不會有——嗚呃！咳啊！」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfln4EXQgF
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMN3VAo7XC
只見人類海盜不停用棍棒猛打艾塔奇的背部，一下、兩下、三下，四下，每次都使勁全力。但是這名鬣狗少年卻絲毫沒有移動的打算，捲曲身子的他抱緊著莎薇，避免銀髮小女孩遭受毒打。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5efze5Idux
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yB0dkbre6
「夠了！我說夠了！你是想打死自己人不成？」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmLM2cZ5hDv
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg1olEMoqJo
此時一名野獸人守衛走來，輕易將人類海盜手中的棒子奪走。接著他踢開彷彿已經失去意識，毫無反應的艾塔奇，並叫其他人把莎薇抓入屬於小孩子的隊伍中。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaDBCrhagcx
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKh6nNThFjv
「快點把這群新來的俘虜押去監獄關起來，礙事得要命。」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKkfWAEcCcM
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdEO5aj8LU
「莎薇！」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjX0Fg41ayl
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2AMsl1u4qv
烏爾莉卡朝著莎薇被帶走的身影伸出的手，手指像要抓住空氣似的彎曲，卻又像被無形的牆壁給擋住似地無法移動。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrmLug9TfvG
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvMifzPjX5P
「不要走！」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhleyKBGAjB
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSZGzTrAE1V
她的脈搏加速，胸口呼吸的起伏越來越大，幾乎快讓他喘不過氣來。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3k59gX09Sc
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn8HLlLp1XA
「拜託別帶走她！」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnoiaanmHwH
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkbuuRtCpL
平時總是表現得自信十足，堅強無比，但此刻烏爾莉卡卻流下淚水。她不自覺地握緊拳頭，感受到指甲崁入肌膚裡的疼痛；那和心中的痛楚相比較起來根本不算什麼。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQURHS0T8C
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3O4C0PLT43
宛如掉入深淵般的絕望感，在這瞬間將她的內心給吞噬掉。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwZ0tUnHkV

無論白天或黑夜，奴隸監獄都是個悲慘的地方。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQ5oxAuA3W
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ78KLBKZh1y
在狹小、潮濕牢房的骯髒環境中，數百名俘虜擠在自己的牢房內。即使入夜了，天氣依舊悶熱無比。許多與烏爾莉卡一樣來自北方的俘虜，全都因不同於家鄉的炎熱溫度而衰弱憔悴、幾近奄奄一息。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvnKHhsLdR9
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE8BCkQyyAK
由於烏爾莉卡早先引起的騷動，她被關押在一個空間極小的單人牢房中。她沒辦法躺下，她只能蹲靠在角落，雙手抱著膝蓋、頭埋進雙腿間，像是回到了人類最原始的狀態，想要尋找安全感，可惜她卻無法找到一絲慰藉。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP16ny9S9hf
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZClVlBUnnp
「莎薇......」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd7Y8e32LND
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9n4D2RBao
腦袋中一次又一次浮現出莎薇被帶走的那一幕，烏爾莉卡甚至不曉得能否再度見到女兒。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxy6fnogiNr

「夫人......烏爾莉卡夫人，妳還醒著嗎？」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEKjMvcZtq
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRr06iDAclm
烏爾莉卡微微抬起目光，正好看見鬣狗少年一拐一拐走向她。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjO5mPlnoik
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4BkgL4EHlz
「你......艾塔奇，你怎麼會出現在這？」烏爾莉卡問。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMpH0RZDbB
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpPwe6X0IIX
「這裡本來就不是什麼戒備森嚴的地方。另外，我也有自己的管道啦。別看我在船上只是個打雜工，其實我小有人脈痛痛痛......好痛啊......」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUhBSMEGUfU
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2yJLiWTfyt
當艾塔奇試著盤腿坐下時，他的身體似乎疼痛不已，就連耳朵和尾巴上的毛髮都根根豎起。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8ot95fz6j
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiq4QeXvmla
「在白天的時候......你保護了莎薇.......」烏爾莉卡以虛弱的口吻道：「......謝謝。」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡndcIQpKG2u

「不用客氣啦，那是我應當做的！」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLnuHF4UJj
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6V2aqLyNVV
「莎薇現在在哪裡？難不成她已經被賣掉——」烏爾莉卡語帶哽咽，說不下去。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJHes7qj4if
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMV3aaHzVRx
「請放一百二十個心，夫人！莎薇正被關在您樓下的牢房內，沒有受到任何虐待或傷害。我剛剛已經去察看過她了，還偷偷給塞她一小塊糕點填飽肚子。」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FsryPCyzP

「咦？」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQ8lBAKTwj
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvF7EWmXwJ4
「為什麼你要這麼做？獸人海盜俘虜了島上幾百個居民，為什麼你偏偏要保護莎薇？」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTP8VOJiTjP
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs3XYT8MyoU
烏爾莉卡的雙眸直勾勾地盯著艾塔奇，彷彿能看到他的靈魂深處。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uwrH8ahGQ
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2kv3PgoqK
「我猜這是自然之母的命運安排吧！」艾塔奇坦率回答。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOucxYtgaY
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8EnT1LH8zt
「自然之母？命運？」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlO9Vh94bZ
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZMpJSlMhR
「不瞞您說....我的母親也曾是一名奴隸，所以我很討厭販賣奴隸這種行為。」艾塔奇娓娓說道：「然而，阿爾及爾正是以販奴為主的商業大城。我並不想裝做一副假清高的模樣，但盡量避免和奴隸販子有直接接觸，結果只剩下一些零工能做......這回我誤上賊船，親身參與這場對人類王國的劫掠，對我內心的打擊也很大呀！因此我想為妳們做點什麼......」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PVYK7uzLN
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuy7D1GaRmc
「可是，你只是個小孩子。」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1Yc80yWoA
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlI7HqUIQUY
「夫人說得沒錯，我只是個孩子，對於改變這個體制無能為力。恐怕等到幾天後，妳和妳的女兒就會被送上奴隸市場拍賣。」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbY00b12nO
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOfhgpx7sT
艾塔奇頓了一下。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAsDG4V7xdX
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Luw9amw1X
「所以我想到一個辦法，能夠避免莎薇淪落為奴。只怕夫人會覺得我是個趁人之危的小人......」他低聲說。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1oS6Ed6uM
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmXyVw1MtSq
「是什麼辦法？快點告訴我。」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqhixIWSLY
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO7VjPe2w81
在這個當下，就算叫烏爾莉卡去洗獸人的腳都願意做。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3LtimVdtkN
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGk2xBDPMYQ
「那就是結......結......結婚。」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiqEjqyMf3k
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhss73ZiE4J
講出這話時，艾塔奇略顯害躁。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyGslYmFTD
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4h7Yn4BMHy
「結婚？」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BDWRrwiHM
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVW07AR48or
「當然，這是在俘虜正式被販賣為奴隸之前的規定。身為獸人的我只要跟人類俘虜結婚，另一半就會成為自由民......」艾塔奇的聲音越來越小。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGDqNLSHht
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJoBXvg2Pxw
烏爾莉卡聽聞後深吸一口氣：原來如此，這名少年看上了莎薇，還想把她娶進門！382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR0CbFDY86Q
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrnBjsJcSjK
「你早就已經有這個打算了吧？打從我和莎薇被俘虜上船開始，甚至是在這之前......呵呵。」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtucVtLqZ6U
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTK4LJoqHyp
烏爾莉卡本想苦笑兩聲，卻發覺臉蛋異常僵硬，她用很大的力氣才鬆開胸中那口氣。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1uDUQuUodT
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeFvBwGxt71

「果然如此。」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYSCYHubRMq
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡovTNzFX9cM
「當我被夫人怒罵『幫助我女兒別讓她成為奴隸』之後，我拚~~~了命地努力思考該怎麼幫忙。我沒有多少錢，無法在拍賣會上標下妳和莎薇兩人。所以我只好想出這種法子......」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqtPkS4NSK
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknzj4dtHtF
「唉......」烏爾莉卡深深嘆口氣。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG6cWn7avdV
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfY3OijmTKx
烏爾莉卡從未想過將自己的女兒嫁給一頭野獸人，更別說以這種形式了；不過仔細一想，她當初嫁給伯爵丈夫的時候，不也是充滿各方貴族的利益算計嗎？382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHBEWE7LMRb
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb4bwykB13O
先不論艾塔奇是否真心愛著女兒，這仍是個避免讓莎薇淪落為奴的大好機會。烏爾莉卡暗暗心想，至於之後會發生什麼樣的事情，都可以晚點再去考慮。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF50T7P7V4A
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZckI1gCSBP
只見烏爾莉卡沒有反應，艾塔奇繼續說下去：「我已經下定決心了。就算被夫人認為是趁人之危，我也不介意。」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiHTwqL5mrV
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHQptTjnNJG
這時他從口袋中拿出一張皺巴巴的羊皮紙，上頭寫滿了密密麻麻的文字。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsHFnvgM6L2
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtwiPxSUDcV
「這是我們獸族的婚姻契約，稱之為尼卡罕(nikah)。只要夫人在上面簽名，這門婚姻就算成立了。這紙契約具有嚴格法律效益，絕非隨隨便便的文件。由於我本人還未成年，所以簽名後我必須找鬣狗氏族的族長做認證。我會在夫人和莎薇被推上奴隸市場前回來的！」382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6w0JbO6XpC
382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCgaNFLZMO
啊，莎薇畢竟還未成年，必須由身為母親的我代為簽名。烏爾莉卡心想。382Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtEM0osMXXZ
