Chapter 057
The dark elf girl’s name is Marifa Nagutsu . Until yesterday, she prepared herself just in case that she would die . Afterall, she was wounded so the value was lower . She couldn’t speak because of the injury on her throat . Even if she was sold on a sale, she wasn’t confident that someone would buy her .
It all began when her village was attacked by a horde of monster . In the middle of the attack, she was caught by a slave trader . She lost one eye, her ability to speak and suffered a serious wound on her back . The slave trader used [white magic] but it was a blessing in disguise . They didn’t heal her completely, only enough to prevent her from dying because of excessive bleeding .
Living in a slaver den was horrible . Although good slaves could get three meals a day and even a room, she was lucky to be able to have meal once a day . Sometimes she got only a bread and some leftover soup .
“what are you thinking?”
Marifa look at the questioner and it was Yu . She diverted her eyes but her ears are still twitching, trying to find out what he will do . Then after some time, the slave trader comes out with him .
“Hohoho . . sorry to keep you waiting . ”
“Don’t worry . ”
The slave trader expression didn’t change but he is sweating bullets . It clearly showed his intention to not offend Yu .
“So, shall we start by completing the slave contract?”
Whenever you buy a slave from a trader, the slave will be given a collar . The collar is embedded with a magic imbued with a contract .
“I don’t need that . ”
“What? This is for your own safety . Slaves who tried to flee, those who tried to harm the master, those who wanted to steal money and such rebellious acts, as long as the master held the slave contract, they couldn’t do any of that . ”
“If she doesn’t like staying with me, she could walk away . ”
“hohoho . Quite a unique way of thinking . However you won’t let your 500 gold coins run away right?”
“About that 500 gold I have tell you that I’ll pay it . if she runs away, that is my problem not yours . ”
(tl note: I’m not sure about this . . will he still paid the 500 gold or it was included in their negotiation terms? Idk)
“however, the slaves can’t walk around the town without any collar . I’ll find something that resembles it . anyway, have you decided a name for her?”
“Name? doesn’t she have a name already?”
“of course using my eye ability I can see her real name, it’s Marifa Nagutsu . ”
After that, Yu walked away with Marifa . However not long after that comes a weird sound from behind Yu . It was coming from Marifa .
*Guuuu*
It was the sound of a stomach rumbling . Yu stopped walking and said .
“There is an inn near here with a good food . They are strange people but the meals they prepare are good . We will eat there . ”
Of course while staying as a slave, she clearly lacked food . Marifa didn’t replied, only the sound of her stomach signaling that she will comply with Yu . She only looked down with a bright red face .
It was the inn that Yu first stayed when he came to Comer city . Even when it’s not lunch time, the seats were 70% full .
“Welcome! Do you want to stay or take a meal?” it was Melissa that greeted him with a cheerful voice .
“Oh, you come again . That girl behind you is she with you?”
Melissa is grinning however she might have misunderstood something .
“I want a full set of lunch special . ”
“and for the girl?”
“It’s the same . ”
Usually it was not strange for the slave to wait outside while the master is eating . However today Yu bought her a full set and what’s more allowed her to sit on the same table as him .
