”Hmm it seeuild quests and I wasn't able to find any potential fighters a the serfs which I interviewed, It's really quite frustrating”
”Right, you did say that you're an adventurer right? Were you looking for a companion?”
”Yes, it can be a bit dangerous to go out alone, it's best if someone is there to have your back”
”How did you go on quests before?”
”I got a good friend which would join me, but unfortunately he is unavailable for the next little while”
”Have you considered buying a battle slave? I heard that it is quite a popular option a adventurers”
”Battle slaves?”
”Yes, their abilities are quite good but they've committed some crime so they became slaves”
”Wouldn't it be dangerous if I cant trust them?”
”They have no choice but to obey their ical slave contract forced upon them, but there are still occasionally some problems
”Het myself one”
There were far too few adventurers in Gartmar and it was difficult to forrowth to just any randoood idea
”Where can I get myself one?”
”I heard that there will be an auction in Gartmar next hich will feature some battle slaves It's quite the hot news and even a few nobles ant to select some”
”Are they expensive to buy?”
”Maybe, but you should have enough with the money you received from the count”
”Nonsense, that was operational funds for the store, I cant use it for personal issues”
”Why not, I was there when he said that if you were to run out of money you could just come ask for some more”
”No, it isn't so to do”
”Wow you're surprisingly honest”
”Hard-headed mostly”
Thanks to this inforained form Levin, I knew I had to save up some of my own money to purchase battle slaves For now my only option ith Material Creation
”Create Material: Gold!”
I could get a piece of gold the size of my thumb for each spell, so it would definitely add up tp a considerable amount over time
'I should probably spread out my sales to not attract attention'
Unlike e quantities to achieve a old was very valuable and there was always a market for it so I could sell it in different places I spent the next few days grinding my Material Creation non-stop until finally the day before the auction I sold it all in different stores around town
By the ti Meanwhile I was busy counting my hard earned profit
”1 Platinuold, about the equivalent of 20,000 Dollars on Earth I really hope it's enough to afford at least one slave as the next auction is in 3 months time”
I ate h
”Johra I heard that you were going to the battle slave auction today”
Jillian as eating his breakfast across the table froer eyes Clearly he wanted to come with me to the auction
”Yes I want to buy one for myself”
”Can we go with you if it isn't tooour horizons”
Jerna as seated next to Jillian with her eyes screa 'Me too me too!'
”Well it ht be a bit of a proble like this, but since he isn’t here…”
I didn't want to look up and see his eyes full of disappointment so I just focused on my food
”I'll be sure to tell you about the whole thing”
”Thank you and I look forward to it”
Jerna however looked at ly as I left them behind
On the carriage ride to the auction, Levin went into a bit more detail about the slaves
”A that others
”Forability”
”Really? Between a good fighter who is pretty and a good fighter who is ugly, which one is better?”
”Of course the first one”
”Well if they both have the salier one be much cheaper?”
I didn't have any good retort, seeing Levin's sneaky smile I knew I had been tricked
”I'll wait for you here because it's hard to sleep when there are too e is ideal for a nice nap”
Leaving the lazy Levin behind, I headed inside the auction hall
”One platinuht?”
Participants in the auction had to have their identities checked as well as their funds before receiving a nu on item lots, they all looked like butlers ere sent by their Lords
”And sold to the gentleman number 10!”
The slave that was just sold was a blonde elf She had the [Archery] skill along with a few other miscellaneous ones, but the price was still one platinum coin
”Ugh… then I guess an actually useful battle slave would be beyond my means”
The next one was a level 24 gladiator fighting slave Because the level was quite high, the winning bid ended up being 2 platinum coins (30,000)
After that was a handsoer Mastery] skill, because of his good looks he was also sold for two platinum coins
'damn I can't even afford to buy these useless ones…'
”The next one here is a Dark Elf Do try to look past her poor looks and focus on the ability to use ic!”
She was an Elf with copper skin tone and about 15huirl, but in reality she was much olderShe was really beautiful with a voluptuous body unlike the usual slender Elven build However, above all else she had a skill which interested me
”One platinum!”
”We have one platinuic!”
”I didn't understand why they kept repeating that she was ugly, in my eyes she was really pretty”
”No one else? Okay, sold to the gentleman number 13!”
”Bring out the next one!”
The crowd all thought she was ugly, so I got quite the deal and could successfully buy my first battle slave When the auction finished we all lined up to begin the process on creating the slave contract
'Finally my turn'
I was fa seen all those in front of ers with ic circle It was coician
Looking at her status, I realised that she didn't have a nauessed that for a slave the name was decided by their master
”How about Viezda?”
She just nodded back in response Her very cold and reserved dehtly when I asked her opinion on her name
”Let's just speak naturally between us in the future”
She again nodded her head
”Good, then please follow me”
I removed the restraints froe
”Levin!”
”Are we heading back?”
He asked as he looked ad Viezda behind me
”Ugh!And here I thought that you were going to buy a pretty Elven ly Dark Elf Why didn't you pay attention to what I told you before Did you know you
Have a one day return policy?”
I felt a bit aard, perhaps to the world she looked very ugly, but in my eyes she was actually quite attractive
”I've already o back on it Viezda, meet Levin, a retainer of the noble which I'm acquainted with”
She just silently nodded her head
”I had insisted on a pretty one…”
Levin was still nore him because I ell aware of his weird personality
”Well at least now Johra has another target to abuse so my days will be a bit more free”
”Viezda, get in”
