"... are you a slave..."

Aria's zero words seem to have inspired memories of Lake Beauty's past, something that others would never have heard.

"What? What's wrong? You look scared.

"Oh, excuse me. It reminds me of a slightly unpleasant past. I used to be used like a slave by my father when I was little.

Lake Beauty answered with sad but angry eyes.

"Oh, I'm sorry, weird thing to say... But when it comes to slavery, I don't think it's that bad of a treatment. Because food and clothing is the duty of the owner, and if you were negligent, you could be a criminal if you were bad.

"... what can I do to buy slaves?

"Right, behind this building, there's a slaver managed by the clan. I was wondering if it would be quick to get there.

"Thank you for everything. I'll try to get there quickly.

Lake Beauty left the clan branch and turned to his back. There was a large wooden building. The sign says' Slave '.

"Excuse me. Let me talk to you for a second.

At the front door, showing the visit with a slightly louder voice, a man appeared from behind. He is wearing a sleek long-lasting, numb swallow tail suit.

"Welcome, sir. What are you doing today?

"Yes, I was thinking about buying a slave, and if you like, I came to talk to you.

"Really, so, what do you want to hear?

"How did the slave people here become slaves?

Beauty Lake asks the slave trader a little angry.

"... hmm, right. This is something any slave trader can do, but basically, a slave is a criminal slave and a debt slave. A criminal slave is one that appreciates the sin of committing a crime with the punishment of falling slave. Debt slaves are those in which a village or each family sells itself and is substituted for its taxes when they can no longer pay their taxes.

"So it's illegal, you're not going to be enslaved, are you?

"No, unfortunately, there is also an illegal slave. Villages and those who have been exposed from the settlements are sold on the black market. That will break your heart, with little liberation and being bought and sold behind you. Of course, illegal slavery is a crime. People and those who sell it often fall into slavery and the worst is the death penalty. Besides, all slave traders managed by the clan are criminal slaves, or debt slaves. Illegal slaves are opened up as soon as they are found and protected until the clan can become independent.

"I understand. After that, what is the amount of slaves?

"Mostly, from fifty silver coins, you don't know the ceiling up there. All this, this is business too, so it would be unpleasant, but forgive me.

"Okay. I'll think about it for a second. Thank you for letting me talk to you.

"No, we look forward to seeing you again.

Slaver drops off Lake Beauty with a smile on his face. Lake Beauty, as it were, even came to the section where the accommodation was gathered.

"In the meantime, we need to make sure we have somewhere to sleep today. Oh, something looks good here.

What Lake Mi found was an inn called Tranquil Wind.
