Manga Chapter 8.1

This is part of the eighth chapter of the Kaifuku Jutsushi no Yarinaoshi manga series.

Summary
Keyaruga is led by a slave trader to a den where sick demi-humans are confined. He takes particular interest in one of them, a member of the Ice Wolf tribe who had higher statistics than a common demi-human. Keyaruga's interest is piqued after she remains undaunted even when being whipped by the slave owner, and promptly gives purchases her. However, he whispers to the demi-human that he will help her get revenge on the humans she hates.

After going back to the inn, Keyaruga learns of the demi-human's origins when curing her disease. The demi-human, named Setsuna, slaps Keyaru for molesting her, but apologizes after learning she was healed. However, once Freia leaves the inn to buy drinks, Setsuna confronts Keyaruga in order to go where she needs to be. Keyaruga easily overpowers her, and reveals his knowledge of Setsuna's history: she had extraordinary fighting capabilities, but couldn't beat anyone stronger than her level cap which indirectly allowed Jioral Kingdom to take everyone from her village as slaves. Keyaruga tells Setsuna that he and Freia were heroes, and as a result he can increase her level cap. With the knowledge attained from the Captain of the Imperial Knights, he is able to inform Setsuna that Jioral Kingdom's forces have disguised themselves as mercenaries and are advancing to the Ice Wolf Tribe's village.
