章 90: Freedom

A sinister smile played on his lips, revealing a row of decaying, jagged teeth. His gaze shifted to Ronaldo, sizing him up. "We possess virgins and even halflings, highly sought after for their unique appeal... hehe...especially in bed."

The man's words hung heavy in the air, laced with a cruel sense of ownership and objectification. In this realm, where power and dominance reigned, beings of various races were treated as commodities, stripped of their dignity, and reduced to mere possessions. It was a dark reflection of the world they inhabited, one where the weak were exploited and the strong reveled in their perverse desires.
