"This … What is this …"
Myr's mind was in a mess. Her knowledge told her that there should be beds and rooms in this place for humans to live, but that Rabbitman …
"Yes, do you remember when we were captured and everyone in the town was tied to ropes?"
Jenna grabbed Myr's hand and looked into her eyes.
Myr's hands and feet were still frostbitten, and her body had not yet recovered.
"Yes, I know. Those terrifying Orcs. But how did we escape?"
Jenna frowned and lowered her head. She quietly glanced at the Rabbitman who was watching them outside the door and said in a low voice, "We didn't escape. Instead, we were bought by a Nephilim named Richard."
"What!"
I was bought??
Myr blinked her eyes in disbelief. She was a human being, not a commodity!
Jenna's face was pale. She rolled up her sleeves and revealed her wrist where green veins could be seen. There was an evil magic formation imprinted on it. No, to be precise, it was a master-servant contract.
Seeing this, Myr's mouth slowly opened wide, and her expression became extremely ugly. She couldn't believe this was true. Her best friend had actually lost her freedom?
"How could this be …"
Two bean-sized tears rolled down from the corner of Myr's eyes.
"At least we're still alive, aren't we?"
Jenna patted her head and comforted her.
"If we lose our freedom, then what's the point?"
Myr shook her head and said.
However, at that moment, two knocks came from the wooden door. Kina turned around and saw that it was the rabbit-human maid. She looked at the two of them with a bored expression and said, "It's about time. You should go back to work. If you don't want me to report you to Master for slacking off, please leave quickly."
Jenna smiled bitterly and said to Myr, "I'll come see you tonight. Even if I can't eat, I still have to eat something."
After saying that, she winked her right eye and smiled at Myr before walking out of the room.
The rabbit-human maid raised her chin and looked at Myr with a haughty expression. Then, she turned her head away with a snort and closed the door.
Myr was the only one left in the room. She looked at the delicious food on the table and suddenly felt lonely.
After eating breakfast, her body had recovered a lot of strength. She could get out of bed now. She opened the curtains and looked out curiously. Suddenly, she saw a group of Rabbitmen of different colors walking around outside. They were wearing the same clothes as humans, and some were even wearing hats.
Frightened, Mel quickly closed the curtains.
She was really in a city of monsters, but why would a human like her appear here? Moreover, there was a bed to sleep in and food to eat.
This was completely different from the Demon City she knew. The Demon City she had heard about from books and adults since she was a child was chaotic, dirty, and disorderly. It was a place where the strong preyed on the weak. If a human appeared there, they would turn into a skeleton in less than a minute.
However, she was still fine. Could it be that these rabbit-people did not eat meat, or did they want to feed themselves until they were white and fat before eating?
Thinking of this, Myr could not help but shiver. She imagined herself being thrown into a cauldron, surrounded by evil Rabbitmen, who kept throwing carrots into the cauldron.
Just when she was afraid, the door suddenly opened with a creak.
"Ah!!"
Myr subconsciously screamed. She looked carefully and saw that it was the Tutu maid with a hazy face. She was holding a plate of food, obviously here to deliver food.
Sure enough, she still could not overcome her fear of monsters. The Rabbitman looked at her from the corner of its eyes and came to her with its eyes half open. It put down the food with a bang and took away the breakfast utensils.
It even noticed that a fork was missing! The Rabbitman maid suddenly stretched out her hand, revealing her hairy palm. Myr was so frightened that she took out a fork from under her pillow and held it with both hands.
The Rabbitman maid creased its eyebrows and suddenly seized the opportunity to grab the fork and take it away from Myr's hand.
"Good intentions don't pay off, hmph."
It said in a low voice, even though it took the plate and left.
Myr was stunned on the spot. Although she was still a little scared, she was more confused. Moreover, Kina seemed to have said that she still had to work. A master-servant contract, a slave, and a job. After she connected these three factors, she suddenly thought of something incredible and her face turned red.
"Could it be that the Great Demons here have that kind of hobby?"
She finally made it through the difficult day. After dinner, Kina also came to her room. When she saw her good friend, she could not help but stagger off the bed and throw herself at her.
"What's wrong?"
Kina was a little confused. Myr did not say anything and hugged her tightly.
"Alright, it's okay. Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Kina thought that she was here alone and was too scared. Little did she know that Myr had misunderstood.
"No matter what decision you make, you will always be my friend."
Myr wiped her tears and said to Kina.
"Yes, you too."
Kina said emotionally, but she still did not realize that Myr had misunderstood.
The two sat on the bed and talked about many things. Kina told Myr about what happened that day and how the woman in white came to her rescue.
What made Myr even more surprised was that there was order here. Different devils could live in harmony. They would not fight for a little bit of food, nor would they kill anyone they saw. What was even more frightening was that they all had jobs, and all of them had a salary, just like humans.
Kina said that her job was to take care of the patients who were sent here and to make medicine to treat their injuries.
However, Myr felt that Kina might be lying to her to make her feel at ease.
At this time, there were two knocks on the wooden door, and a pair of rabbit ears popped out from the crack of the door. It was the rabbit-human maid again. After seeing her a few times, Myr had begun to get used to her existence, and would not cry out in pain.
Moreover, she did not show her face. She only said through the crack in the door, "Master wants to see you tomorrow. Be prepared."
After saying that, a few folded clothes were thrown in. Myr froze for a moment and couldn't help but feel nervous. Jenna helped her pick up the clothes on the ground. These clothes weren't very well made, but at least they looked pretty.
Myr looked at the clothes and wondered if she was going to be …
She grabbed Kina's hand and hurriedly said, "Kina, let's escape from here. If this goes on, we'll definitely die."
Hearing this, Kina was silent for a moment. Then, she smiled bitterly and said, "We can't escape. This is the wilderness. We won't survive more than a few days outside. Moreover, the human empire is very, very far away."
Myr lowered her head, her eyes filled with despair.
"Then let's die here together."
She could not say this. Kina was still enduring the pain and surviving. Perhaps it was because of her that she could lie in this place and receive meticulous treatment.
If she died like this, it would be too cruel for Qinna.
Thus, she made up her mind. Since Kina could endure it, then she could too. However, she would not stay here forever. She would find an opportunity to escape with Kina!
Before that, she had to find a way to please the boss here. No matter how humiliated she was, she had to gain his trust!
