Chapter 30 Part 1
This is the boy's last day living in that underground chamber.
More than three years of imprisonment finally ended on this day.
However, when the boy opened his eyes and woke up from the dreamland, nothing had changed at all.
The Boss was idling around, putting his feet on the table, and leaning on the the chair. His mouth was still biting on a piece of chicken bone that had turned flavorless since a long while ago as he perused several doc.u.ments that were in his hands.
“Boss, that kid is awake.” The underling who had quickly noticed that the boy had woken up, reported to the boss, and on his own initiative, walking toward the corner of the room where a cloth bag lies.
“If he is awake, just feed him two doses of ecstasy. There is no need to report to me.” The boss said without lifting his head up. Hence, under the boss's instruction, the underling took out two vials of concoction; one red and one black, and nonchalantly broke it on the ground.
The boy had lost count of how much mana he had absorbed. He, himself had no idea how long exactly had he been imprisoned in this place as well. When his counting of the days had surpa.s.sed the double digits, he had lost all hopes, and had given up after that.
“How much has the auction price gone up now?” The underling asked with interest as he went over to the Boss's side.
“Not high enough. Those slave traders are still probing one another. These prices have not even reach ten percent of what I'm expecting.” After he finished his sentence, the boss crushed the doc.u.ments in his hands into a paper ball, and dumped it into the fireplace before saying: “There's no need to rush. It's okay to do this slowly. This is a big project that took me three years. Finally, I can now reap the profit from this. It's fine to wait a few days more.”
The boss smiled, his eyes were turning into a seam from smiling as they stared at the boy in the cage. No, that is merely a tool. It cannot be considered as a human anymore since ages ago.
