"Damn it."
Scratching my hand, i look at my surrounding. Its been 3 days ever since i came here, and i keep wandering around this town.
"I really want to leave this town."
I checked my pockets, there were 20 gold coin and 4 silver coin. Damn it, even the economy in this world is harsh. I stayed here for only 3 days and yet it cost me more than 6 gold coin.
"Fuck, forget about living for months, im going to starve to death in just two week."
Wait, are there adventurer job in this world? Like in manga and novel. If it exist, I could get many money from there, and maybe i can build myself a nice house.
With that in thought, i wandered around the town, asking people about the job.
"Just go toward that direction. You see that path? Just walk to the right, you can find the adventurer center there."
"Thank you sir."
"No problem kiddo."
I walked to the direction the man told me, i finally arrived at the adventurer center.
"Huft! Huft!"
Damn it, curse this stamina. I shouldn't have smoke before. I looked at the building infront of me. I opened the door and went inside the building.
Inside the building there were many people there, mostly men. My hope are just too high.
[Potential : C]
[Potential: B]
[Potential: F+]
I noticed the thing above their head, their potential are lower than those people, No let me rephrase that, monster. Especially that guy, i hope atleast he can enjoy life with that potential.
I took a glance at my status window. They were still the same as before.
"Haa... this stat is outrageous."
I muttered to myself. I went to the administration center.
"Hello, how can i help you?"
A girl wearing a white formal attire standing infront of me.
"I want to be an adventurer."
"Sure, just tell me your name and we can give you your adventurer card."
"Jang Hotae."
"Jang Hotae?"
The girl look at me with a weird expression. Well, its better to just use my real name. Its not like im in danger here.
"Is that your name?"
"Yes."
"Okay then.."
I waited for awhile as the girl left me alone at the administration table. A few minute passed, the girl finally came back, while holding a brown coloured card.
"Sorry to keep you waiting."
"Its fine."
She's polite, impressive. Not many girl in my world have this kind of politeness. I shook my head, not wanting to remember the world i came from. I had enough with that world.
The girl stretched out her hand to me, handing out the card in her hand.
"Here it's your card. With this you can now exchange your monster loot as adventurer with the adventurer center, just remember to show your card."
"I'll remember that. Thank you."
I take the card from her hand, and quickly went outside the building. I look at the card in my hand.
'Wood adventurer : Jang Hotae'
"Well, this is fine."
Atleast now i can get some money, wait. Crap, i didn't think about how to kill the monster.
I put my hand on to my face once again. Realizing i made a mistake in my plan, i thought i can get free money now. I guess not then.
I widened my eyes, my brain suddenly clicked.
"Should i, buy a slave?"
I can fight on my own if the enemy is weak. I glanced at my status window again.
[Talent : Failed Luck]
I let out a sigh. I can't risk it, with this talent even weak monster can kill me so, fuck it. Time to find a slave market, there should be one around here.
I was about to search the slave market, when i noticed a man beside me. Leaning against the adventurer building. He was looking at his watch.
Maybe i can ask him where to find the slave market. I walked up to the man.
"Excuse me?"
The man quickly look at me.
"I want to ask something."
"What is it?"
The man stood up, facing me.
"Where can i find a slave market?"
I hope its legal to have a slave here, if not i just fucked myself here. The man quickly point the direction toward the slave market.
I thanked him and went off to the slave market. Also what was that potential grading. I shook my head. Arriving infront of the slave market, i went inside. Looking at the slave around me trapped in a cage, Binded by an iron chain.
"Welcome! How can i help you?"
A man with a black hair wearing a black tuxedo, and a monocle on his right eyes, Walked to me.
"I want to buy a slave."
I said to him.
The man smiled, hearing my words.
"Sure! What kind of slave are you looking for?"
I looked around my surrounding, before turning back my gaze to the man.
"Can i look around?"
"Of course! Do as you please."
I nod at him. I walk around the place, looking at all the slave.
[Potential : D+]
[Potential : B-]
[Potential : B]
All of their potential look, normal? But again i don't care. Even B potential is good enough to kill some monster. But i'll keep searching around.
[Potential : F]
[Potential : A-]
Okay that's the highest, maybe i should buy her-
[Potential : B(S+)]
I look at the girl infront of me. A girl with a black long hair reaching her waist, there were bruises on her hand and face. Her blue eyes looking at me. Her body was thin, i could tell she got treated horribly here.
But many question popped up in my head. Why is it like that? B(S+)? Does that mean her true potential is S+? Many thought circulating in my head. I passed her cage, looking at the other slave in there. Many time passed, i finally decided.
"I decided my choice."
"That's great gentleman, which one do you want to buy?"
I picked 3 people, the one with A- potential, F potential, and the girl from before.
"Alright! The total cost would be 4 gold coin and 28 silver."
What? That cheap? Alright then, i can save enough money then. I took out 5 gold coin from my pocket, handing it toward the man. The man smiled.
"Follow me. I will now place the slave contract on them. If they ever disobey you, you can forcefully make them feel pain. And you can command them and they will always do what you say."
"But remember this, the use of the command work for 4 times a day, and the effect last for a few hours."
"I see, thanks for informing me."
"No problem gentleman."
The man quickly placed a scroll on their back, as he placed it. The scroll quickly emit a purple light, and the scroll slowly dissapear into thin air. After that, a black mark slowly appeared on their back.
"What is that?"
I asked the man.
"That's the slave mark, when you use your command, that mark will activate. Now place your fingerprint here."
The man took out another scroll, i placed my fingerprint on the scroll, and the scroll emitted a silver light.
[Fidol has joined your party!]
[Riena has joined your party!]
[Camerra has joined your party!]
[You can now access their status window.]
What? They became my slave tho, it registered as joining my party? Interesting.
