Chapter 2 - New companions -
I decided to wait for the girls to regain their senses. I will need them to explain to me how this world works. With my current knowledge, I will have a hard time outside of this place. While I don't fear anything, it is true that going outside without knowing anything will make my life very difficult it would be better to convince those girls to guide me.
While I thought about that, the girls begin to wake up at the same moment.
As they regain their senses, their faces show how disoriented they are, trying to recall what happened. I decided to make my presence known as I spoke to them.
[Hello, little girls.]
I said while crouching to match our eye level, trying not to scare them. As they see me, the white haired girl screamed, running behind the other girl, crying. I can see the fear in the green haired girl, but she didn't try to run away. I am really impressed by how hard she tries not to run away. Then I could see some resolve in her eyes. She opened her mouth to speak.
[Our master is dead, and you found us inside the dungeon, so you are our new master now! p-please take us!]
I was surprised by what she said. I expected her to run away from me, not the opposite. What should I do? For now, lets ask why they were in that situation.
[First thing, tell me who those men were, and why you were in that situation.]
I asked, and they began to tell me their story. The green haired girl’s name is Nele, while the other girl’s name is Nari. They are from the Elven race. It seems they were kidnapped not more than one month ago and sold as slaves in the human country, where they were bought by the first man I killed.Two girls with no money who are far away from home will be lucky if they die a painless death. At best, they will be captured and sold again. Their unique choice is for them to make me their current master, but I feel like there is more to it. For now, this situation is favorable for me, as I wanted someone to guide me and answer my questions.
[Alright.]
I accepted without hesitation, startling them.
[While I want to ask why you want to stay with me, a person who you fear that much, I wont ask. I won’t ask because I need your help and knowledge. I don't want to harm you, and I give you my word that I will protect you.]
I wanted to calm them at least a bit, so I said that. They are not empty words, if the girls are usefull, I will destroy anyone who mean to harm them.
[Y-yes!]
She answered with a bit of easiness in her voice. Then, while looking down, she started to talk.
[Eh, I-if you need some clothes, there are some new ones in that backpack over there.]
With a bit of red on her face, she said while pointing ten meters to her right. I forgot that I was naked the entire time while speaking with them. Even I can feel a bit of uneasiness discovering that I was speaking with two girls while being completely naked.
I take the plain clothes from inside the backpack. They are not to my liking, but I don't have the luxury to choose, so I put them on.
[Alright, then let's go.]
I was preparing to depart, but Nele stopped me, speaking with a bit of hesitation in her voice.
[Ehm. Forgive me, but if you want, we can gather the items and money for you.]
[Ah, you are right. Then, please gather them, and tell me about the currency in this world.]
I didn't know how I knew about what currency is, but the meaning was inside my head.
And so they started to gather whatever was of some value. Those men had 6 gold 30 silver and 143 copper coins. It seems that you can trade with those coins. 100 copper make 1 silver and 10 silver make 1 gold coin. With 10 copper coins, one can sleep and eat one night at a place called 'inn'. They said an inn is a place where one can sleep and eat in exchange for money. Also, the men I killed were some well known adventurers. No wonder they had that much money and items. I gathered their weapons and I gave two daggers to Nele and Nari, the rest are to be sold. My body is a weapon itself, so I don't need a weapon. I don't want to use some untrustworthy man-made weapon anyway.
After gathering the items and putting them into a backpack, we head towards the exit.
[How long will it take to reach the exit?]
I asked Nele because Nari was still scared of me.
[We are on the 14th level of the dungeon, but with the help of the Magic Circle we will arrive at the second level in an hour.]
[Magic Circle?]
[Magic Circles are Magic formulas written with magic power. No one knows how they are made and they can be found only in Dungeons. Not long ago, some adventurers discovered a two-way Magic Circle with the function of Teleportation in a secret room on the second floor.]
Oh, so this is how I was transported here.
[How could they understand that the magic circle was a Teleportation one?]
After hesitating a bit, she answered.
[No one can read a Magic Circle. They probably used slaves to test the circles. Slaves are often used like that in dungeons. They are sent to look for traps or as bait for strong monsters, also, we too…]
I understand how bad it is to be a slave. If they are brought inside a Dungeon, their fate is already decided.
[Ok, that is enough. Thank you.]
Seeing that it is painful for them to speak about what could have happened to them, I decided to stop them.
[Thank you… We are the ones who should thank you!]
They stop and turn toward me.
[If you were not there to help us, a fate worse than death was sure to befall us! Thank you, Thank you!]
[Th-Thank y-you!]
With tears falling down their cheeks , they thanked me. I could feel warmth gathering in my chest. Their beautiful eyes and long hair moved my heart a little. I saved them because I wanted someone to answer my questions and because the souls of the 4 who attacked the girls were bathing in depravation. Only the souls of the two girls were light and warm. I couldn't let two beautiful souls like theirs be corrupted by those ugly ones.
But now I feel grateful for saving those girls. Maybe in the future they will become really important to me, who knows?

For now, I decided to answer with a smile and we resumed our walk. With Nele to my right and Nari to my left, the atmosphere between us was no longer that heavy.
