Xaloc sighed. What is the use? If you stop the bad treatment of one slave, you have not done anything.
If a tree is rotten, you fix the root and not trim its branches or better still destroy the tree.
All Selene's action would cause is a bigger backlash on the slave girl. This way of thinking was just naive.
"You are right. Just like you can do with your slave as you will, I also can do to you what I will. It is only fair, isn't it?" Amir's gentle voice sounded amongst the murmurings in the tent.
The fat man's expression changed and he frowned. He was not a member of this small village but Corinth. He was a servant of the Temple of Apollo. Where had someone talked to him like this before?
Since the Fat Chief wasn't happy, he groped even more forcefully. Now, the slave girl could no longer bear the pain and uttered a groan.
"Mm!?" The Fat Chief frowned.
As the slave girl heard this sound, her entire body instantly went ice cold.
