Chapter 86: Clue to Althea

Garan did not call him out immediately, however, simply because—judging by the special mineral cuff on his neck—Garan knew this person was a slave.

It wasn't that he wanted to discriminate—that was something very rare to see in his time back in Terran. It was just that the slaves in this world had a really low position.
