Chapter 30 : The Darkhaven (2)
----
" I have connections and secret paths across the whole Arkania, whether it's between two different human nations or between a human kingdom and the demon kingdom."
" I can definitely, safely transport those two slaves of yours to the demon kingdom."
Leaning on to the wall of the one of the houses, he introduced himself like a Robinhood.
Ignoring his brief, William looked at him with sharp eyes, " I asked you something at the Inn.... How did you know to approach me.?"
" Hahaha... " Kieran Laughing crazily while rubbing his hands in excitement, " Man you are the talk of the town. After what you did yesterday night, the words for it has spread like fire. "
" Oooh... Man.. once heard the story I hd goosebumps, imagine, a normal man who is just a slave trader, beating the shit out of a noble young master... He he he .."
William's eyes relaxed a bit, yet his gaze was still interrogative.
" After hearing it all and after knowing the price he offered you there is only one reason why a man would refuse to sell his slave.... Hehehe.."
Smiling crazily, with his body making weird movements around William's body, " it's only when a man has soft spot for his girls.. "
" No matter what you do, your slave is either a property of yours or a property of the Imperia."
" So, That is when I decided that you are a customer, a customer who will be interested in buying the freedom of his lovely slaves. "
All of a sudden all his weird movements stopped, once again leaning back on the wall he looked at William with a serious face, ' did he fall for it..? He was able to take out a captain level guard so there is no doubt he has talent but kid you are still not that grown.. I will make sure to eat you up whole..... He he he...'
After taking a long break, his eyes were closed, as if he was trying to concentrate on something, pondering for a while, William had a cheerful face, with a childish demeanor he smiled thankfully" it's true, everything that you have said is true, I am very worried about them, especially after what I did last night..... You see I was drunk and I didn't know what I was doing "
"But I am sure many powerful enemies will come after us, so please help me, I don't care about me but I don't want them hurt, so please tell me, apart from the money what else do you need that can safely send them to the demon Kingdom."
With a hidden smirk attached to his face,
' hahaha.. gotcha kid.. just this much is enough, if I report you to the Town Authorities, these words alone are enough to declare you a traitor.... hehehehe....
' But don't worry I am not interested in playing a hero, all I care about is Money, hehe.., money from you and then money from them...'
With a sympathizing face he gently kept his hand on William's shoulder.
" Don't worry kid I understand your concern, just keep the money ready and today when the sun goes down, bring them here in some old and partly torn dress..."
" I have heard they are exceptionally beautiful, so, doing this would help you in avoiding attention "
As he completed these words he once again covered his face in the black cloth. Jumping on to the top of that house, he began to walk away.
William stood right there, dropping his childish act he sharply looked in Keiran's direction as he heard some final words from him " aah.. also know this, we will be using Mana cuffs, just so we can give full slave trading vibe and avoid suspicion... You know about Captain Makima right? If she gets even a hint on our deal we are both dead. "
With these words he vanished in to thin, William looked at 'the path' and started walking back in the direction he came from.
' you know what these Mana cuffs are? '
' ...'
With no particular reply the book showed grumpiness.
Glaring at the book, " I have asked you something.."
' oh really....? Because I think I was told to shut up..'
William stopped and stared at the book for a while, " fine then ! Since you are useless it would be better to just throw you back in the darkness..."
' Noooooo...Mana cuffs are a mechanical invention, they are basically made of stones have tendency to absorb unlimited mana, such stones are carved into cuffs and placed on the slaves and other traitors of Imperia.'
' The most general use of it is when you are trading combatants slaves, the traders for their safety like to use this cuff own them. Also...'
Cutting him off in the middle, ' fine fine... I get it...'
' don't tell me you seriously believe that man the Darkhaven or heaven or whatever....' '.
Irritated with anticipating his another round of questions, ' do you want to go back to that dark place...? '

It was way past noon, the Inn's hall was still bustling With people. Lily was still sitting at the counter handling the cash while Morad was busy in the kitchen preparing all the different meals.
Artha and Natalie running around as waitresses, both of them were exhausted and covered in their own sweat.
Natalie, even though was busy like hell, was distracted, each time someone came in from the front door her eyes always turned to see who was it. As if she was eagerly waiting for someone's arrival.
' master has been gone out for like more than 5 hours, no matter how hard I think I can't come up with a reason for him being out for this long...'
' what if something like yesterday is happening, What if that unknown person was from that noble family.... '
Her eyes narrowed, as her heart raced faster,? ' but why am I worried so much, what are these feelings...? is it a side effect of the slave seal...or is it because of what happened last night, No... it can't be because of that.....'
' I know very well that to master it wasn't me it was someone else, someone whom master missed a lot, someone named Yuna... No..., I can't wait here any longer, I need to go out and look for master...'
Throwing her apron away she rushed towards the the front door, even before Artha or Lily could see her rus, her hand was already at the door handle.
Pulling the handle she rushed out, only to bump into a man. A man with a sword on his waist and a book in his hand and a bag full of something in his other hand, her sight fixed at the ground.
Without raising her gaze she relaxed, her eyes teared up, as her heart pounded inside her chest, her face turned red like a ripened tomato, as she graciously bowed,
" Welcome back, Master!".
