35 Chapter 35 - Reunion (2/2)
”Almost.I just have one more question to ask you.There are two injured people that I will be responsible for.One is missing a leg while the other has no limbs.Do you want to help me?”Gren thought it'd be better to ask her what she wanted to do.
”I don't really have a choice, do I?I only have experience with taking care of a woman so if either of them are men I don't know if I would be capable of helping.”Gren told her that they were both female.”In that case I can help you if you buy me but I'm too expensive according to everyone else.It's up to you.”
Gren told Dani that he'd purchase Yun and Dani brought over the manager of this room.Yun's price was six gold coins so Gren pulled out more from his sleeve.Jasmine of course wondered where he kept getting money from but she was an understanding wife and would wait for Gren to tell her.
Yun was let out from her cage and the room manager signed a contract saying that Yun was now owned by Gren.The group of three people that just became a group of four went on through the doors with a sign warning underage people that they weren't allowed, ignoring the fact that Gren appeared to be too young to enter.
The cages in the room down the hall from where they were just at were as bare as the ones in the demihuman area.The women were wearing clothes but they were revealing.”Why is it that the human women wear clothes while the demihuman women are naked?”Gren asked out loud, not really expecting an answer.
”That's because humans pretty much look the same down below.With demihumans you really don't know what they have down there unless you look.The hyena beastman you bought is a good example of what I'm talking about.She seems to have a penis but it's really just a vagina that extends outside the body.”Gren was wondering how someone like that could give birth.”It's part of our company policy to be transparent.”
Dani brought them over to where the magician woman was.She was shackled to the cage with her arms and legs spread out; her mouth was gagged and there was a rag tied around her eyes.”What is this?”
”There's not much known about magicians so we had to be cautious.This is to prevent her from using magic.A collar could be enhanced with magic to prevent her from casting magic but that would require black iron and those collars are only used for really expensive slaves.”Dani was quick to answer as if she expected the question.Gren thought to ask what was the point in having a magician that couldn't cast magic but he had stopped caring and just asked for the price.”She is 15 gold coins.”
Gren paid and then the cage was unlocked.However, there were shackles that had to be undone so Dani ran off to get the guard.Gren undid the magician's blindfold and gag.”Welcome to the group.I'm Gren and those two are Jasmine and Yun.What's your name?”
”Am I dead?The angels have come for me.I'm finally free.”The magician seemed to be out of it.Gren noticed that her lips were dry and cracked so he suspected that she was dehydrated.He took out the canteen and held it to the magician's lips.She seemed thirsty and wanted to drink it all but Gren could remember that it wasn't good to give lots of water to someone that was dehydrated so he slowly fed her the water.
Gren put the canteen back when he heard Dani and a guard coming in.The magician's shackles were removed but she couldn't hold herself up so Jasmine carried her.Dani was in full business mode and decided to recommend another slave.
”There's one more slave I think you'd be interested in.She used to be one of the best mercenary scouts back when she was still active.They say that she even escorted an entire team of injured mercenaries through an Earth dragon's territory.”
Gren was interested but felt there had to be a catch.”Which one of these cages is she in?”
”She's not in a cage.She was injured pretty badly so she's not on display.The room she's in is not far from here.Do you want me to take you there?”It didn't seem like it'd take long so Gren nodded.
The area that Gren was taken to was not as nice as the display rooms.There was cheap bedding and a good number of the slaves here were either injured or looked sick.Dani stopped in front of one of the makeshift beds and it was inhabited by a single-legged woman with a familiar tan skin tone, a familiar scarlet hair color, and a familiar voice.The woman looked up at Gren with her familiar blue eyes.”Grenda?”
