Chapter 106: Slaves
'Is this girl a man?' Albert thought while sweating inside. He never thought there was such a beautiful and feminine man.
[I think he's a good one to have.]
'Bonkey?' Albert widened his eyes, never expecting Bonkey to suggest something like this. 'I'm not swinging that way.'
[I know that. However, think about it this way What if he learns a couple of charm spells? Although it won't be as effective as the succubus, it should be able to entice the enemies. At the same time, without even that kind of spell, he's beautiful enough to make people horny.]
'Wait a minute. I think I know what you're planning to do.' Albert came to realize Bonkey's plan and summarized it in one sentence. 'He can seduce his opponents and bonk them himself. Damn. He's the most effective guy to become a Bonk Officer.'
[Yes. That's the plan. When he becomes strong enough, he should be able to bring you a lot of Bonk Bites in the future.]
'Indeed. Let's go with this.' Albert nodded and turned to the middle-aged man. "How much for this guy?"
"Teacher! Do you swing that way?!" Yale panicked and grabbed his hand. Although he had prepared for a sex slave, someone like Jessie was beyond his imagination.
"Do you trust your teacher?" Albert frowned. "I don't swing that way."
"I do, but" Yale gritted his teeth.
Albert ignored him and looked at the middle-aged man.
"Since it's hard to find a customer that wants to buy him, his price is discounted. He's good at using makeup and can certainly entice other people. He's also still young and beautiful, so his price is set to 14 Gold Coins." The middle-aged guy smiled, trying to persuade Albert to buy him.
Albert then looked at Yale. "How is it?"
"We do have the money, but"
"Alright, good. I'll take this one. Let's continue," said Albert with a strict tone while adding inwardly, 'Oh my disciple My goal is beyond your understanding.'
It felt like a flower had bloomed in the middle-aged guy's heart, knowing that this was a big purchase.
Before going, he said, "Come here. Greet him first."
Jessie carefully walked toward him and lowered his head, afraid that his life would be hell to encounter someone who would dominate him. He was frightened to the point his tremble was visible with naked eyes.
"Jessie is it? Do you have any problem if I ask you to fight? I'll give you the power to protect yourself, so you can have more confidence in yourself. I see that you don't want to do all this, so I believe you want to change. What do you think?" Albert asked.
"Sir?" The middle-aged guy was bewildered. If Jessie didn't comply, the purchase might be on hold.
"I" Jessie looked down and couldn't answer him.
"Well, I don't have much to say right now. So, wait here for a moment and think about your answer. As I said earlier, you won't die and will only get stronger. Maybe in the future, you can be independent." Albert nodded and started walking, forcing the middle-aged guy to continue.
Whether it was fortunate or unfortunate, there wasn't a single sex slave that piqued his interest anymore.
The slaves themselves were actually thinking it was nice to have Albert as their master. After all, he could spend 14 Gold Coins without batting an eye, so they wouldn't need to suffer poverty.
Their purpose was only one, which was to satisfy their master's need. Looking at Albert's respectful appearance along with his apprentice, it was clear that Albert wasn't someone who would abuse them. So, they were quite envious that Jessie was picked by him.
After walking for a while, the scenery gradually changed. Unlike the sex slave section, there was no furniture that the slaves could use in order to show how good they were.
There was only a wooden floor and bars. So, the people weren't that excited to show their might.
"These are household slaves. I can introduce you to a few, depending on your needs. If you need a production slave, I can show you some of them. If you want someone to take care of you like a maid. They can be one too." The middle-aged guy started explaining.
"However, some of them are willing to be sex slaves while some are not. So, I will help you ask them about this if someone piques your interest."
"Hmm" Albert raised his head. Just like the sex slaves, he could see various races.
For the sex slaves, he could see humans, succubus, cat people, and so on. As for the household slave, he could even find more variety such as humans, dog people, and a few other races.
"Household slave can be anything from a chef to butlers. So, do you need anything specific?" The middle-aged guy asked carefully.
Albert didn't answer him immediately until he found one guy. This demon had green skin and a humanoid body.
His red mouth was quite big. His appearance was similar to that of a frog and there was a trace of elegance lingering around him.
Even though he was standing still, he stood straight like that of a gentleman and looked Albert straight in the eyes.
'Pepe?' Albert found one more surprising slave. 'What the heck did I just find?'
[You're not alone anymore. You've now found another living meme. Congratulations.]
'Shut up, Bonkey.' Albert's eyebrows twitched. Still, he was surprised when he saw someone like him and couldn't help but see his status.
Name: Bepe
Race: Frog
Level: 30
Gender: Male
Jail Time: 0 hours
"Are you interested in him?" The middle-aged guy obviously didn't miss the slight change in Albert's expression. He immediately introduced Bepe to him. "He's a frog from the Pride Kingdom.
"He was sold to a slave market when he was younger. It seems like his dream was to become a butler, so we immediately trained him to be one and he has shown quite good results. I believe he can be a butler that will serve you well.
"And he's a peculiar demon from the Pride Kingdom. Normally, they have pride that makes it hard to become a slave. Meanwhile, his pride lies somewhere else.
"It's his craft. He is very proud of his craft like tea and other preparations. So, he might talk back to you if you insult his craft unless you give him a reasonable explanation. Of course, the slave seal will help you stop him." The middle-aged guy explained with a serious expression.
'A butler Pepe I don't know why but it suits him. His name is Bepe I wonder if I can change it to Pepe. Nah, never mind.' Albert thought as he couldn't contain his smile.
He looked at Bepe and asked, "Do you mind if I call you with another name? I won't insult your craft or anything. Just that."
Bepe walked to him and placed his hand on his chest before lowering his head like a butler. "If Sir buys me, you're free to do so. This also means that my name can serve Sir."
'Perfection.' Albert laughed inwardly while maintaining his elegant appearance. "Still, I need to confirm. If you have the chance to get stronger, will you do it? Or will you stay as a normal butler?"
Bepe widened his eyes, taken aback by his last question. "I apologize, Sir. But would you mind explaining what you mean about a normal butler?"
"Literally. If you want to be a perfect butler, you need to be able to do anything, including protecting your master. Do you still have the heart to learn everything?" Albert smirked, challenging him.
Bepe widened his eyes. He thought he needed to be strong enough to move furniture as this was his job. However, Albert's words made him believe he needed to be stronger.
In other words, it was his training to be a head butler that would be in charge of his master's every need, including his protection.
"Thank you for Sir's explanation. If I have the chance to serve Sir, I won't hesitate to get stronger."
"Great." Albert then looked at the middle-aged guy. "How much is he?"
"Household slave is not as expensive as a sex slave, but because he's good as a butler, his price is 10 Gold Coins."
Albert glanced at Yale.
"Because of the discount earlier, we can still get two more slaves. If you add this guy, we can get another one according to our budget."
"Good. Let's continue then." Albert nodded with a smile.
The middle-aged guy smiled and immediately led him to the next section, the battle slaves.
The treatment of these guys was far worse than the previous two. They didn't even have a wooden floor. They only had stone walls and floors, preventing them from breaking them, which would increase the cost of maintaining them.
Albert could see minotaur, ogre, and other battle-type races. However, there wasn't a single person that piqued his interest.
In the end, they went to the last gloomy place. If the battle slaves didn't even have something good to live in their cell, they even restrained the people in the untrained slave area.
They seemed to have a violent personality as they kept roaring when they saw Albert and Yale, saying he didn't want them.
However, there was one slave that raised his interest in this place.
It was a dark elf. She had long silver hair tied into a ponytail. Her big breast and perky butts complimented her brown skin, making her look different and enticing at the same time.
But that wasn't what excited Albert. It was her eyes' colors. Her right eye was red, while her left eye was blue. This was the first time he saw someone whose eye color was different.
He checked her status.
Name: Irena
Race: Dark Elf
Level: 60
Gender: Female
Jail Time: 0 hours
Her strength was quite high like that of a battle slave.
"She is" Albert frowned.
"Scram! Do you think you're good just because you have one element? I can beat you even with my physical ability alone!"
"Who is she?" Albert asked.
"She is a dark elf, a quite strong one at that. However, her personality is like that and we have a hard time training her. If it works well, she can be either a battle slave or a sex slave. With that body and enchanting eyes, she would fetch quite high.
"Unfortunately, despite doing it for a few months, there hasn't been a single change in her temperament, so I need to warn you a bit."
"Hmm" Albert thought for a moment and said, "Can I enter this place?"
"But Sir" The middle-aged guy frowned.
"The other slaves are restrained, so I don't think it will be a problem." Albert smiled. "It's not like she can defeat me."
"Still, she's from the Wrath Kingdom. She has an anger issue. I can't afford to put you in danger." The middle-aged guy tried to stop him.
"Just do it." Albert nodded.
After contemplating for a while, he finally agreed. "Then, let me grab the key real quick."
Seeing him leaving, the dark elf spat. "Heh? Stronger than me? It's just because I can't use my element."
Albert looked at her for a moment and placed his hand on Yale's head. "Show her real quick."
Yale hesitated for a moment before raising his hand. After learning for so long, Yale could finally replicate the one thing that the Bonk Bat always did.
A light and dark ball suddenly came out of his palm and started circling in harmony.
"That's" The dark elf dropped her jaw and stared at Yale in shock.
"I'm learning from my teacher. He has more and can use every single one of them without a problem." Yale said in a low voice, so only she could hear.
"What?!" The dark elf turned to Albert in shock.
Albert smirked. "Come under me and I'll teach you how to control your power, bringing your strength to another level."
The dark elf couldn't process what she had just seen.
When the middle-aged guy returned to open the gate, he was stunned when the dark elf didn't even say anything.
Since Albert didn't want them to know he had the ability to train the dark elf, afraid of raising her price, he grabbed her chin and looked at her. "Yep. She has beautiful eyes. Well, I will buy her as well. Aside from that Jessie, I think having a woman in our group will brighten the mood. What do you think?"
Yale glanced at the middle-aged man. "Price?"
"Ehm Due to her potential, she is more expensive. 25 Gold Coins."
"We can buy her."
"Great."
