I Own A Brothel In Another World (Ch. 1-196)

Chapter 30 - The Escape

Before we begin moving, I take one more glance at all the cages stored around. There doesn't seem to be a lot of them and releasing every captive wouldn't take too much time. The problem is, with all the chaos that is taking place everywhere, it could be really dangerous for a mob of slaves to run through the complex. They could easily get hurt by either the organization or the knights by accident.

At the same time, leaving them locked like this is also quite risky. If the building's structure gets damaged in some crucial parts, the whole thing can come crashing down at any moment, burying all slaves here alive, and various offensive spells flying around and hitting walls don't help this scenario even a bit.

Both options are shit, but I decide to go with the first one. I can't protect that many people with me so they will have to count on themselves or each other. Many if not all, will most likely be stopped by the knights stationed at all possible entrances to the building, but that's still better than ending as a bloody smudge after the ceiling falls down. And the soldiers would search through the whole place after the organization is dealt with so the outcome doesn't change anyway.

「Fuck! I promised others to prioritize my own safety, yet here I am, getting swayed by my emotions again. Whatever happens, happens.」

I turn to the elf beauties waiting for my orders. "Let's run around and open the cages first. That's the least I can do for them in this situation."

We proceed with the plan and break all the locks in around ten minutes. During our little detour, the girls all pick up a sword or a knife, and more importantly, cover themselves with some shirts and pants, also from the fallen guards. The thought that they are all still going full commando just can't get out of my head when they run alongside me.

We arrive back at the auction hall and see the knights getting upper hand over the remaining criminals. Promptly joining the fray, I support them by restraining targets with my whip or distracting them via other means. The battle in this chamber quickly comes to an end, with only a few of the King's men losing their lives. I inform the rest that backstage and storages are clear and they scatter towards other parts of the underground mansion.

Moving cautiously in our own little unit, we focus on getting outside, but still help the good guys along our way. The elves do seem to have some fighting experience or training, but nothing too outstanding. Their strongest point lies in their coordination. All six of the dark-skinned girls move around each other flawlessly, confusing their opponents by repeatedly switching positions with their nearby comrades, like they are one in body and mind. Individually, even I shouldn't have too much of an issue when facing them, but as a unit, it changes the game completely. They have definitely known each other for a long time.

Without that much trouble, we finally reach the main hall and, oh boy, it's a mess. Looks like the biggest battle takes place right here. And somehow, the bad guys took their stand literally in front of the exit so we will have to go through them to run outside. How in hell did they end up there instead of the other side of the hall is a mystery to me.

"Let's make groups. Elea with me, silver with black, then white and brown with grey. Just help the knights get an upper hand so we can push through," I point at everyone as I team them up.

They nod and we run forward to engage with the main enemy group. From their equipment, it looks like we are against an archer, two mages, three swordsmen and one pretty tough-looking guy who swings an impressive greatsword, straight from fantasy games and fiction. The blade is like 20cm wide or so. Dude must be strong as hell or his Class features some kind of physical strengthening ability.

"Take out the archer and the mages first."

I nod at the two groups of women on my sides and they increase their speed, heading towards their appointed opponents.
