When I arrived at their store I first noticed, the smell...It smells bad in here!
Like *huff huff* I can smell shit, and piss, and something else?
I wonder...
Then as I entered I first noticed cages, yup cages! like cage for animals except...
Humans...
Oh! Beastpeople!? Beastman? whatever you call them, you know those with animal ears and tails!
As I walk with the dim lights, I noticed
Some are muscular, some are...yup! sexy~ no no no! no! bad thoughts! Bad!!
Some are glaring at me like they wanna kill me...makes me nervous.
Some are staring in the air, dazedly...hopelessly...
I have mixed feelings about this
Well, in my previous world, slavery has been abolished? disbanded? I dunno the term.
And everyone had equal human rights and stuff...
This moment is like a slap of reality for me again.
This really is another world huh
As I'm in my own world, a fat merchant walked towards me,
With his merchant smile, yup, that's a merchant smile right there, he asked "Hello, customer, what type of slave do you like? A battle slave? or..." his eyebrows moved up and down as he lewdly smiled " you know~ those slaves in bed, hehe"
I feel my face heating up as I nervously replied "a-ah! no no! I'm just browsing...haha just browsing"
Then I noticed the petite auburn girl I bumped into earlier, inside one of those cages.
Following my line of sight, the merchant with his sales talk said "Oh! you have a good eye customer, those products arrived just now! They're war prisoners from the neighboring country."
Oh? War prisoners? those that were defeated in war?
A victim of war, huh...
Hmmm...
As I contemplated he continued "Since this is your first visit, I'd like to give you a 50 percent discount! how about it?"
OH!!! A discount!
I employed my poker face as I calmly replied..."How much?"
"1 silver coin" Rubbing his hands he smiled his merchant smile, yup! that's a merchant smile right there.
1 silver coin...
I instinctively grab my pocket where my beloved 50 copper coins are...
Shit! Too expensive!
Well...maybe I'm a cheapskate...maa~ who cares~
"Hmm...I'll return later."
"Oh!? Sure sure!" With his merchant smile, I left the slave store...
