Chapter 212: Chapter 18 Slaves
The duo proceeded to the area where people got thinner as the shop lights turned into fancy lights that only attracted upper-class people. They saw people with fancy clothes, getting in and out from the shops while instructing their men to take care of their luggage.
" I don't like this. It smells like my home in the capital. A bunch of pretenders who forgot about their obligations and thought themselves as owners."
Regina clicked her tongue coldly while pulling her hat down. The men seemed to be interested in her as they tried to get closer to her, but Licht wasn't buying that as he excluded huge pressure outside his body to behave them.
The guards seemed to notice his power as they advised their masters to stay away from them despite their beauty because they understood they were roses with thorns and this was the black market. If they dared to attack the other party, they could retaliate due to the law of the black market and besides they would be kicked out, so it wasn't advisable to create a problem here unless you are an absolute powerhouse.
" Hey cute couple, do you want some slaves? "
A man with a curved mustache came next to them as he pointed at the biggest building in the market while gesturing for his man to take their luggage. Licht slightly narrowed his eyes with suspicion, thinking it wasn't a good idea but after weighing down the possibilities of future benefits.
" Let's go. This is what we are here for in the first place. Also, try to hide that scary face."
Regina whispered despite her inner heart. Although she despised this system, she couldn't do anything here and she was critically in need of people who could fill out their squad vacancies.
Step, step*
They followed behind them closely, looking around the building with heavy looks. The building was decorated like most high-quality luxurious items shops in popular cities. The golden decorations coupled with paintings gave off fancy vibes of the lavish style of nobles.
The floor was high-quality marble and they shone under the light that was made from mana lamps that were exported from the city of technology. Each step they took, coupled with the clock sound in the hall made the impression that they were in a castle of royalty.
" Our merchant company is founded by one of the most influential people in the continent and we are proud members of the world merchant alliance."
The man explained their story while opening doors that led them to a room with two chairs in the middle with a stage in front that had bright red curtains that prevented other parties from seeing what was behind the curtains.
They carefully sat on the chairs that had cushions that were made from the highest quality feathers and material.
" Now we will present you are highest quality product. Do you have any preference?"
The man asked gently while giving them catalogs that listed their specialties and traits.
" We would prefer people with auxiliary abilities and combat supports."
Licht handed back his catalog, placing his chin on his hand to look at the stage. His amber eyes were burning under the lamp as his sword vibrated to communicate with him. Both he and Regina felt awful doing this but what was done was already done.
" Certainly, sir. Please lead out product ranging from 40 to 60."
The man spoke calmly, retreating to the stage. The curtain opened as a man with scars stepped on the stage, Licht carefully observed his face and his body to gauge out his potential and he used his magic to detect his mana path.
This continued for a long time until they saw two demi-human brother and sister. The elder brother had a thin body but Licht could tell this boy had natural power inside him and his sister had bright eyes which was unusual for slaves. She even dared to lock into his eyes.
" If you buy us, I can satisfy your every wish. I can do calculations, cooking, and cleaning and I am an experienced scout. As for my brother, he is a shaman, he could do many things that ordinary priests can't do."
She spoke lightly despite the glare of men who were watching from behind because she finally believed she found people who could free from themselves.
