Loser's redo: Transmigration in a novel

Chapter 46 The Demihumans

The demihuman are looked down upon by everyone as a lower species. The only place which accepted the demihuman was the magic kingdom, Pheorous.

When the three ruling force made an a alliances, the Pheorous kingdom's former king had demanded that slavery of Demihuman to be stopped and to give them a little freedom.

Before the alliance was formed the Demihuman were prohibited to enter any city of the Cravion kingdom and the Mhydrasvil empire.

The demihuman lived in hiding living their whole life in fear with no hope. Most of the Demihuman lived as a fugitive in the slums or as a slave.

The only place that the demihuman could go was the magic kingdom, Pheorous. This made the Pheorous country the only place where demihuman and human lived together.

Even after the alliance was formed the only thing the former king of the Pheorous kingdom had demanded was to let demihuman enter a city or village naturally without prejudice.

There is no need to accept them as a citizen, just give them a little freedom.

Free them of their slavery.

Treat them as a human.

These were his only demands but the Pheorous kingdom had lost a few of its benefits in the alliance, the former king was just satisfied about getting his demand accepted so losing a few benefits didn't matter to him. Well it couldn't be said to be the same for the current king of the Pheorous kingdom.

With the alliance the demihuman were able to live a little more unitedly. All the Demihuman were grateful to the Pheorous kingdom so some of them worked in their, suppressing their anger towards humans.

Living like fugitives for so long had changed a lot of things, pure blood Demihuman were very rare throughout the continent. Most of the demihuman were either half or a quarter blood. But they did not lose their animal instincts even then.

A pure blood demihuman doesn't look anything like a human, they have the appearance close to a monster, if not for their capability of speaking they would have been hunted down as a monster.

A half blood demihuman has the appearance of a human with a few aspects of an animal like Serlece. But a few half-blood demihuman with special blood are capable of awakening their bloodlines temporarily and turn into pure-blood demihuman it is usually only possible for 5 minutes. After awakening their bloodline their strength and senses get enhanced tremendously.

There are even cases of some of them losing control when they awaken their bloodline. This ability can't be used by the pure blood demihuman as their bloodline is awakened from the day they are born.

A quarter blood demihuman doesn't have any aspect of an animal, they look entirely like a human but they still have their instincts of an animal. Few of them even have some special ability.

The demihuman are accepted by the academy too but there are very few demihumans in there as their talents are checked more strictly.

And most of the demihumans don't even have the will to go to the academy. Even though the academy only looks at their talents and treats them well, the students attending would still look down upon them and even come looking for trouble for various reasons.

What if a demihuman showed talent surpassing a noble or a royalty? it would without a doubt hurt their pride.

They still look down at them as a lower species and if they surpass them it would be the most shameful moment of their life. Killing is prohibited but there were still many ways of creating troubles. Violence is not much restricted, only their strength matters then. Even if a noble or Royalty kills a student they would only be fired. The academy doesn't have the power to harm them, Even If the academy punishes them without a proper reason they would face setbacks created by the nobles or royalties.

Zick knew a lot about them, There was another name that was mentioned by Serlece.

'Anelete....'

He knew about her very well in the novel. She is the best merchant in the Pheorous kingdom and can be said to be a role model to all the merchants. Her influence within that kingdom was nothing to look down at, she even had connections with the royalties and the current king of the Pheorous kingdom.

In the novel, Anelete had come to the academic city for an unknown reason and stayed there for a few months. While staying there she had met the protagonist of the novel but at that time the protagonist was still an inexperienced person who just came out of his village.

The protagonist would have been bankrupt of all his money if a future harem member had not interfered.

'Well not like he had much money in him to begin with.....'

Zick could not help but think this while walking on the street.

The protagonist of the novel ' the hero of velveric fights the demon lord' had come from a small village so he didn't have much money in him. He was only able to live in the academic city because of being a student in the academy.

Anelete in the novel was very kind to the demihuman for some reason but when it came to business she was the shrewdest person in the first continent, she has never experienced any losses at a negotiations. If she didn't like the proposal it would be rejected without hesitation.

She had her own forces like the demihuman who Zick just met, she also owned a mercenary group filled with elites.

'If I fight against that demihuman Wolf-man now, when I am not even used to my strength I will lose without a doubt, I can only run then....'

Zick went to different shops as there were a lot of things he needed to buy. He brought a huge leather bag, A map of the Cravion kingdom, a scabbard, few spare leather armour and some magic books. Keeping the cursed sword in his space ring would make it hard to react quickly to a surprise attack, hanging it on his waist would make it easier to use. He had already checked before, the cursed sword had stopped giving out any creepy aura and was like any regular sword.

SCREECH!

Putting the sword in the scabbard, Zick looked around the city for a few more minutes. The city lived up to the name as a famous city for gambling. The city street was more developed than the other, with street lamps regularly standing beside the street. The street lamp was in spherical shape with a shining crystal in the centre of it.

Zick could see the mana around the street lamps easily.

'Fire crystals.....'

Fire crystals were a commonly used material in crafting so it wasn't that surprising to see it used like this.

Walking around for a while, Zick started heading towards the wyvern and the two dragon eggs, He had brought everything he needed.
