Reincarnated to Bonk in Another World

Chapter 105: Trap

Chapter 105: Trap

After the discussion, they went back to their room to rest. Their bodies were too tired to even go to the slave market to find someone there. So, it was better to rest a bit.

At the same time, Albert wanted to stay quiet for the time being, waiting for the prisoners to be released to the wilderness again. It was then he would absorb the EXP. As for the Bonk Bites, he had absorbed them.

While laying down on his bed, he said inwardly, 'Bonkey. Is there no way for me to get stronger with the help of my disciple? I mean, when they bonk other people, they get the EXP, right? How about the Bonk Bites?'

[In your case, the Bonk Bat absorbs both the pure energy and the lust energy. In their case, the Bonk Bat repels the lust energy and absorbs the pure energy.]

'Yeah, I mean, is there any way for me to get that lust energy instead of throwing them away?'

[There is.]

'Oh? If I can get Bonk Bites without doing anything, this will be good. At the very least, I can use Bonk Bites to learn spells or something. Now that I think about it, what's the use of Bonk Bites other than learning and using spells?

'I mean, if I get constant help from a succubus, I don't even need to spend another Bonk Bites anymore. So, there is only one purpose of Bonk Bites.'

[Don't worry. You'll find another way to do it soon. Keep progressing like you always do and you'll find it.]

'I see. I guess I'll continue working hard. I want to have enough strength to do whatever I want It's not like I'm going to use it to do mass murder, but yeah, having this kind of strength feels like gaining freedom.

'Just like the Earth, those who have money and political power can suppress you. Suddenly, you can be framed and forced to enter the prison. There are more of that, but yeah, I hate something like that.

'I want the power for freedom as I'm going to enjoy my life this time. Is it foolish of me to pursue strength just for this, Bonkey?'

[Everyone has different motives. Even if no one thinks it's right, as long as you think it that way, then it's not foolish. That's what you believe after all. As for me, I'll support you no matter what you do.]

'Well, that's good, I guess.' Albert smiled and closed his eyes as he wandered into his dream.

The next day.

Albert and Yale walked toward the slave market to buy some slaves that Albert fancied.

Because Yale was picked by Albert back then, there was a belief that Albert's eyes were better at spotting talent than him.

So, Yale only accompanied him to be his guide and assistant. As for who was chosen by him, he wouldn't say a single thing.

The slave market was located on the south side of the town, so it took them half an hour to reach there by walking.

There was a huge difference between the main street and the slave market. Due to the nature of their business, the slave market couldn't be opened in the main street because they would disgust many people even though having a slave was normal in this world.

As he expected, there were more and more people in cuffs and dragged by a chain. They were the slaves that were going to be sold in one way or another.

Their condition wasn't that good, considering he could see many bruises on their bodies and the dirt on their clothes. It was clear that their life was miserable.

Albert could sympathize with them, but not to the extent he wanted to save them. After all, he was similar to them in the past. Whether they wanted to change or not, it would be their choice.

After a while, he asked, "So, do you know a place around here?"

"I've asked Erica, and it should be" Yale paused while walking for a bit more before finding a small and dark alley. "Here."

"Hmm?" Albert frowned and asked, "Where?"

"There's one inside. Let's check them. This one seems to be among the biggest and since Erica is the one recommending it, I believe they're trustworthy."

"How's the condition of our money?"

"For now, we can only afford two or three slaves. But before we enter, I want to ask how do you want to treat them?" Yale asked.

"Hmm. I've no idea." Albert had mixed feelings. On the one hand, he felt weird to have a slave that could be killed legally as long as he wanted it. There wasn't something like this on Earth. On the other hand, he knew this was another world, so he needed to adapt a bit.

"Then, do you want me to offer you a suggestion?"

"Sure."

"You can't treat them too good and too bad. The former will lead them to be arrogant. The latter will lead them to rebel.

"Also, no matter how bad their stories are, never release them within the first year. It's just them taking advantage of your sympathy. Instead, you should judge them yourself within that one year. If they're bad, it's better to sell them. If they're good, you can let them continue as your slave or free them.

"There are a few occasions where the slaves will follow you from the bottom of their heart because of the treatment they receive.

"Of course, many nobles don't want to free them even if they're loyal because there's a chance for the slaves to betray them in the future. What if they have a family and their family is held hostage? The slave might betray you at that time.

"So, whether you want to free them or not, it's better to think of it carefully," Yale explained with a serious expression.

"I see. There seem to be a lot of cases around the world." Albert nodded in understanding. "Well, I'm new to this, so I'll just follow your words for now. When I've grown more accustomed, I'll decide for myself."

"Yeah. That's good enough." Yale was satisfied with his reply. He knew Albert was kind to those he viewed as a friend or family. So, he didn't want them to take advantage of his teacher's kindness.

"Let's go then."

"Sure."

Albert and Yale entered the dark alley. It turned out the alley was quite long, making them wonder what was hidden inside.

After walking for a while, they saw a small door with light barely illuminating the door. The light was only to give the customers a way to recognize the entrance.

Yale immediately opened the door and entered, finding a different atmosphere.

The inside was bright and elegant. The floor was made of wood, making it look comfortable.

He also found a small counter with a middle-aged man standing behind it. At the same time, the hall was quite big with a room on the corner, which seemed to be the place to strike the deal.

The lamps were bright enough to the point they thought it was someone's house instead of a slave house.

"Welcome." The middle-aged man hurriedly greeted them.

"We would like to buy a slave," Yale stated without hesitation.

"Certainly." He nodded and asked, "Have you visited our slave house before?"

"Nope. This is our first time buying slaves here."

"In that case, let me explain about the slave categories first. We have four types of slaves. The first is sex slaves. As the name implies, these slaves are beautiful and have been trained for that purpose. So, their price is a bit higher compared to the rest.

"The second type is household slaves. They can help you around the household and usually, they have Villager as their jobs, meaning you can find something to help your workshop or maintain your house.

"The third type is a battle slave. You'll be able to find a strong warrior among them. They're mostly former adventurers who have certain conditions that end up making them a slave like debt.

"The fourth type is an untrained slave. This one is not that popular because we haven't trained them enough for you to control them. So, their price varies quite a bit, depending on their potential. Which one would you like to see?"

Yale thought for a moment and turned to Albert. "Teacher."

"Let's see everyone. I don't have any type of slave that I want. If I like them, I'll buy them." He replied with an unsure tone.

"Certainly." The middle-aged man smiled and extended his hand to the side, pointing at the long corridor. "Please follow me."

Albert and Yale exchanged nods and followed the middle-aged man.

It seemed they had arranged the slaves according to their types. And the treatment for each slave was harsher the farther they went, considering the end of the corridor was quite dark.

For the first type, it was a sex slave. Obviously, they would put their most expensive and brightest merchandise first, enticing the buyers.

However, Albert and Yale didn't like them very much because of their nature.

When the slaves saw him, they immediately showed their cleavages and thighs with some poses. It was quite a sight to behold.

They even had a good living area with a wooden floor, couches, and beds to sleep in. There were only steel bars that kept them from leaving this place.

Still, Albert and Yale simply looked at them with a poker face as if they had a heart of steel.

When the middle-aged man saw this, he was quite surprised. Albert aside, it was hard for a young person like Yale to resist their charms.

It seemed he couldn't sell any expensive slave today.

However, when the potential was bleak, Albert suddenly stopped at a certain slave.

"Teacher?" Yale widened his eyes, perplexed. Albert shouldn't be enticed by them, so there should be something else that piqued his interest. However, there was nothing in his mind.

On the other hand, the middle-aged man's expression brightened. He thought this was the chance to sell a slave.

He followed Albert's line of sight and found a 15 years old girl leaning on the wall. The girl was looking left and right as if she was flustered.

She had long black hair that was neatly tied on the back. Her chest might be flat, but her body was skinny and her legs were long. It should be enough to entice anyone.

However, there was one big catch in this slave and it was what piqued Albert's interest.

The middle-aged man immediately explained. "This slave's name is Jessie, a commoner from the Risourin Kingdom and a 15 years old human. He's very timid, so it's easy to overpower him."

"He?" Yale raised his eyebrows, wondering whether his ears had begun failing him.

Little did he know, this was the one thing that piqued Albert's interest.
