Episode 130
“Oh, Frey! Are you here? We sincerely welcome you to our slave market!”
As Frey was moving forward, dragging the fox beast, someone greeted him with a happy expression.
“If I had been there the last time you visited, I would have treated you a little better! I’m so sorry! If you need any service…”
“No fuss.”
Frey cut off his words with an annoyed expression and spoke in a low voice to the man who was still looking at him with a grinning smile.
“Is it okay for the head of the slave market to be here like this?”
“Haha, don’t worry! Since this is an unprecedented scale, I definitely paid attention to the selection of employees! So it will run smoothly even without me!”
Frey heard the slightly frivolous words of a man whose voice sounded like that of a businessman.
“So, what brings you here?”
He frowned slightly and asked the question again.
“Oh, that’s right! I have some questions to ask!”
Still giving Frey a friendly smile, the man began to talk.
“Have you decided to wipe out the prisoner slaves today?”
“What do you mean?”
“What are you talking about? Isn’t Master Frey drying up the seeds of the beastmen right now?”
The man who said that soon opened his mouth with a mischievous expression on his face.
“Well, Master Frey wouldn’t be annoyed with all the female slaves here, right? He has a very good reputation in that area…”
“What do you want to say?”
When Frey asked in a cold voice, the man rubbed his hands and got to the point.
“So… how much do you plan to do today?”
“I’m going to live as I want, but is there any problem?”
“Well, that’s… normally, this is an answer that would make me gape with joy…”
As Frey spoke calmly, the man began to look slightly troubled.
“W-What are you talking about? Frey, don’t you know well? Among the people who visited our market today, many of our market’s VIPs are also there.”
“however?”
“But, if Master Frey monopolizes the slaves, uh… what should I say? Everyone won’t be satisfied.”
In order to persuade Frey, who usually only knew himself, the man tried his best to desperately tell the story.
At that point, complaints were pouring in from VIPs who were unable to purchase the slaves they wanted due to Frey purchasing all of the races.
“What do you mean by monopoly? Can’t I buy it by paying a higher price than what I bought? I guess this has been the system for a long time?
“Well, if you pay more than what Mr. Frey paid… no matter how noble you are, it will inevitably be quite a burden.”
“is it?”
As Frey scratched his head at those words, the man put on his most pitiful expression and began to beg.
“Please! Lord Frey! I never thought I’d say this, but just take it easy…”
“okay.”
“…what?”
The man, who was expecting Frey to punch him when he got angry, started to look confused when Frey surprisingly obediently agreed.
“The money I brought was limited anyway. I tried to reduce it little by little.”
“I-I see? Anyway, I understand! Thank you!”
After making a bewildered expression for a while, he quickly bowed and thanked Frey when he responded with a blank expression once again.
“…kehehe.”
“Is there anything else you want to ask?”
Frey looked at him for a moment, then tightened his grip on the leash the fox beastman was wearing and was about to leave the hallway. When the man quietly followed him, he tilted his head and asked.
“There is, but it’s not a big deal! It’s just a simple survey!”
“Poll?”
“Yes, we have recently been conducting a survey on the preferences of market slaves among VIPs!
Frey frowned upon hearing those words, while the man smiled and began asking questions.
“What is your favorite type of slave? What race? What age? What size?”
“I’m busy right now, so I’ll do it later…”
“Oh, now that I think about it, isn’t this… a fox beast?”
As Frey took a step away from the man with twinkling eyes, the man who was taking a bite turned his gaze to the beastman next to Frey.
“Let’s take a look… Judging by the shape and color of the tail, it appears to be from the Eastern Continent. Hey, as expected, you have an amazing eye for seeing. This is a high-quality product that only comes out once every 10 years…”
Eventually, he was able to recite rough information just by glancing at it, and muttered with a disappointed expression.
“If it had caught my eye, I would have made it a not-for-sale item and used it for entertaining, but since it has already been sold, I have no choice.”
“I guess you also understand everything here?”
“Of course! How big is this place? No matter how good I am at these things, there are limits!”
“…Yeah, I knew that.”
“yes?”
After hearing those words, Frey muttered with a meaningful expression and then smiled and said.
“It’s nothing. Then, I’ll just go take my new slave for a walk.”
“Yes! Have a great time! By the way, the secret resting place for nobles is across from the waiting room!”
Frey, leaving behind the man who lowered his head while saying that, began to send a message while avoiding the gaze of the fox beastman who was still glaring at him knowingly or unknowingly.
‘Did you all hear that? Even the general manager doesn’t have everything figured out. So, try to move a little more fluidly depending on the situation. Also, don’t forget the location of the secret rest area.’
Frey once again sent a message to everyone and began to slowly walk down the hallway, relying on his cane.
“human.”
“…hmm?”
Frey, who had been walking down the hallway for a while, looked back with a puzzled expression when the fox beast called to him.
“Where are you going?”

When the fox beastman, who had been quietly glaring at Frey, asked a question, he opened his mouth with a puzzled expression.
“Your name is a mess, and you even speak informally. I guess you don’t know your situation well, but one word from me will be the end of you.”
“I’m not good at the Southern Continent language. So please understand… Kehehe!”
The fox beastman, who had been answering in a low voice, suddenly started making a squealing sound as Frey pulled hard on the leash.
“If you don’t know, you shouldn’t play around with your mouth until you get used to it.”
“Kek, big! Ugh…”
Frey, who was looking at the fox beast holding his neck with tears in his eyes, soon gave a weak tug on the rope, signaling the departure.
“…human.”
“under.”
Frey, who had been walking down the quiet hallway again for a while, turned his head with an annoyed expression when he once again heard the fox beast’s low voice behind him.
“Are you fearless? Or do you want to die?”
“There are questions.”
Staring fiercely at Frey, the fox beast asked in a cold voice.
“Why are you doing this? Doing this?”
“…what?”
Before I knew it, I was holding a shiny blade in my arms.
“Why did you purchase the children who were with me?”
“Hmm…”
This is what she has done up to now, awakening as much as possible her sense of being a predator.
“It’s been a long time since we’ve had slaves without education. It’s been a long time since we’ve had slaves who don’t even know the situation they’re in. It must be fun to break them down.”
“Answer me, human.”
“Are you asking because you really don’t know?”
Frey spoke to her with a sneer.
“I will put them all in the basement of my house and turn them into sex slaves. Especially you, Mi-hyung, I will make you my exclusive possession.”
“…young.”
“what?”
“They are younger than me and you.”
She tightened her grip on the blade she was secretly holding and growled fiercely.
“I don’t feel any remorse… ugh!”
And at that moment, Frey pulled her leash once again.
‘…Opportunity!’
And that was the moment she had longed for after holding the blade.
– Shush!!
“…sigh.”
In the blink of an eye, the blade is aimed at Frey’s neck.
Although the bracelet made it quite weak, it was created using the unique slim fit and Frey’s pulling power.
It was her triumph.
“…Human, don’t move.”
After successfully rebelling, she leaned into the arms of Frey, who had a stern expression on her face, and began whispering in a cold voice.
“Your life is now mine.”
“okay?”
“That’s right. So, you must follow what I say.”
Frey began to smile at those words.
“What’s so funny, human?”
“No, it’s nothing special. It’s just…”
When the fox beastman put a little more force on the blade aimed at his neck and asked why, Frey answered with a laughable expression.
“It was my first time having a slave attack me, so I thought it was a bit surprising.”
“Can’t you understand the situation? Human? Are you…”
“You won’t be able to attack anyway.”
When Frey said that and reached for her neck, the fox beast frowned and tried to gently insert the blade into his neck.
“…..OMG?”
The blade was sharply extended towards Frey’s neck.
No matter how much force you give it.
It didn’t move even as much as a rat’s tail.
“What’s wrong? You say my life is yours?”
“W-what? Why…”
She was confused by such an abnormal phenomenon, but when Frey reached out to her and began to caress her neck, she began to look embarrassed.
“The bracelet you’re wearing doesn’t just have a weakening curse.”
“Um, curse?”
“Yes. In addition to the weakening curse, that bracelet also contains the ‘curse of obedience’.”
After saying that, Frey whispered softly in her ear.
“Stay still and don’t move.”
“……!”
Then, her body instantly froze.
“Ugh, ugh…”
The fox beast, who was trying hard to escape from the situation, soon realized that it was no use and looked ahead.
“……Hmph.”
And then she began to feel fear.
The shock that a boy who was less than a fist away from his position was caressing his neck defenselessly.
In his other hand, the leash was being pulled harder and harder, cutting off the oxygen flowing to her.
The alien yet horrifying power called ‘magic’ that I experienced for the first time in my life.
“Ugh, uh…”
Thanks to those facts, she realized for the first time in her life what real oppression was.
This is not orderly and reasoned oppression caused by village rules or the domination of adults, but violent and unreasonable oppression.
For her, who ran away from the village to find freedom, the fear of having to be the plaything of the man in front of her for the rest of her life was enough to paralyze her reason.
“Well, wrong…”
“what?”
“Well, I was wrong… I was wrong. I apologize for my mistake. So, stop now…”
That’s why she even offered an apology to a person she had always looked down on.
“Extremely…”
Frey quietly grabbed her neck.
For some reason, he didn’t even grab it hard, just wrapped his small hand around her neck.
‘Uh, you can kill me at any time…?’
But the hidden meaning of that action, which she guessed, further aggravated her fear.
“Save me…”
As a result, before she knew it, she was crying and begging Frey.
“…help me.”
No matter how much you call yourself a noble fox tribe or a great warrior, the unreasonable malice I encountered for the first time in the wide world.
This was not something that the young fox beast, who had been worshiped by the villagers and had not yet molted a few times, could handle.
-Ssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss…
“Huh…”
As a result, the fox beast was completely immersed in fear, and every time Frey’s hand touched his neck, he felt a creepy feeling as if his neck was breaking.
I had no choice but to hold my breath and spend what seemed like an eternity.
“…What is your name?”
After a really long time for her, Frey lifted his hand from her neck and asked a question in a low voice.
“Mi, Miho.”
“Okay, Miho. You’re not going to do anything like that anymore, are you?”
When Miho nodded urgently at those words, Frey quietly led her to the door of a room.
“Wait over there for a moment.”
“W-this place…”
“This is my private waiting room. The slaves I bought are gathered there.”
After saying that, Frey stroked Miho’s head and whispered.
“I’ll come pick you up when I’m done with my errands. Then, let’s go for a walk again and do some fun things.”
“Uh, uhm…”
After speaking, Frey pushed her into the door, smiled for a moment, and then walked away.
“…….Ah.”
She was left with the slaves that Frey had bought for a while, and after a moment of fear and despair, she cautiously looked around.
“”…………””
That was the same for all the slaves in this room.
Because all of them had experienced similar things to Frey before coming to this room.
Even though there were some who were stronger than Miho.
‘…Home, I want to go home.’
Miho, realizing her helplessness for the first time in such a situation, buried her face in her knees and began to tremble quietly.
It was the moment when the sprout that emerged from the ground with an innocent dream of finding freedom was about to be cruelly trampled.
“Hello everyone.”
That is, until Dmirkan suddenly appeared in their center, receiving a signal from someone.
“”……!?””
The slaves began to look in confusion at the gentleman in the suit who suddenly appeared without any warning or warning.
“…Of course, it’s him. Each and every one of them is the strongest among the species.”
Dmirkan looked at them with a satisfied expression.
“I’ll be blunt.”
In a low voice, he made the suggestion clearly so that everyone in the room could hear.
“…I will give you the strength to destroy this place.”
When the slaves looked puzzled at those words, he quietly added:
“Instead, please join the Demon King’s army.”
.
– Instead, join the Demon King’s army.
“There’s no question, it’s up to anyone.”
Frey, who was taking a moment to catch his breath after putting the prisoner named Miho in the waiting room, smiled and whispered as he heard Dmirkan’s remarks echoing in his head.
“…Anyway, they are quite useful guys?”
– Frey, I found a solution to the self-destruct spell hanging around the slaves’ necks! Come here for a moment…
Then Irina’s voice rang in his head.
‘You’ve been destroying it with star magic until now?’
– Is that… possible?
‘I guess it’s just a matter of flowing magic down the neck?’
Frey was scratching his head while saying that.
‘Everyone, report. Are there any abnormal phenomena or variables currently observed?’
Soon, a message was sent to everyone.
– This is Cania, there is no problem here. By the way, young master, is it really true that that child is not a sub-heroine?
– I’m not sure because I’m concentrating on restoring magic.
– This is Klarna, we have a problem.
Eventually, Frey, who had closed his eyes and listened carefully to the sound, began to frown when Klarna said that there was a problem.
– The leader of the Imperial Knights and the leader of the Holy Knights appeared.
“What, what did I say again?”
Soon after hearing her remarks, he looked relieved.
‘They are two people who have been blinded by talent supplementation recently, so it is natural for them to show up. They’ll probably try to select the strongest among the male slaves.’
– Well, but…
‘Just leave it alone. Those people would have come to see the tide today anyway. And, it’s not strong enough to disrupt the plan.’
Frey answered in a calm tone and started heading somewhere while humming.
-There is one more variable.
“……!!!”
He suddenly stopped walking and froze.
– Don’t be surprised, I’m here now…
‘I know.’
– yes?
In his view.
“Fray!!! You shameless and mean!!! A mean, mean, frivolous and bad human being!!!”
‘Now, I can see it right in front of me.’
A huge variable named Perloce was coming in.
“I will definitely kill you today!!!”
No one knew at that point how that variable would work.
