"HAHAHAA That fool!!" Mafo happily went back to his room and looked at his wallet for the nth time. Mafo was happy to have received 7000 gold from trash and was particularly in a good mood.
After so many days of problems and stress, something finally went according to plan!
So when he saw his new favorite, Sandra, he dragged her to the bedroom to have his way with her.
Clap! Clap! Clap!
"Please, milord! Be gentle~ Ahhh~" Sadra yelled, her soft hands holding on to his shoulder and her legs wrapped around him—or as much as they could, considering his waist was big.
Mafo took it as a sign of pleasure and went harder and harder until he splurted all over. He gave her a sound kiss on the lips before pulling out.
He looked at his handiwork in satisfaction. "Do well. Maybe you could get pregnant like Sasha."
Sandra frowned, not wanting to carry his child but wanting to get Sasha's treatment as well.
Not long ago, it was determined that Sasha was pregnant, and Mafo just assumed it was his. However, everyone knew she had been with Hesso too, so who knew who the father was.
Healers with the 'xray' skills could determine the number, state, and sex of the baby, but not of its paternity.
For this, there was a tool, but this was only when the child had been born already.
Anyway, Sasha now lived in her own comfortable room and was fed much more than the rest of them. She was living the life of a mistress and Sandra felt envious!
However, if that woman gave birth without her gaining Mafo's his indisputable favor, then she'd have little chance to climb! Thinking of this, Sandra perceived a bit of a hurry.
She must get pregnant too!
At this, the woman looked at the flabby man. She opened her legs wide, her fingers opening herself up even more. "Then… please squirt more inside me…"
Mafo's eyes sparkled and he grinned perversely. It was an incredibly erotic sight—native women cannot be so sexy!
"Oh, Sandra! I love you!!"
He opened her legs wide and started thrusting inside of her again.
Sandra closed her eyes, really unable to stomach his ugly face. But she had no choice! She had to do this to get a good life!
...
Early the next day, the 2000 slaves for sale were finally gathered. Late the previous night, Otto came back with a few thousand more gold, allowing him to gain a few hundred more slaves.
It was handled early that morning, which was good for both parties.
From the point of view of the Voumi people, it was because the slaves were disgusting, and it would've caused a lot of commotion if two thousand people walked on the streets while they looked like that. It would also lower their reputation, considering it had to do with the quality of their products.
On the other hand, "Enok" needed them out early because "the war with orcs" was upon them, and they needed the slaves as early as possible.
As for how the slaves were chosen, Mafo just assigned his people to give him the infected ones. This gave Otto a chance to sneak in Sarah and the other 'slaves' Alterra got from Inko by bribing some of the people separately.
Because there were too many names, the Lord did not want to manually input names in the system, so he delegated it to others. To those people, "the idiot client" simply chose a few dozen names by preference, and they did not think much of it.
There were five lines of Beast carts there. Except for one that was completely enclosed, the rest were open-air two-tier carts that could squeeze in hundreds of people at a time. The rest would have to walk.
Otto hired a mercenary team to help protect them too, and he hired quite a lot, about one mercenary every 30 people.
Mafo looked at the carts and found them interesting. Although he thought it looked a bit too comfortable for slaves, it looked convenient. The cart had two tiers and an extra set of wheels to keep it balanced.
He should get his carpenters to do something similar eventually. After all, he was expanding his slave business, and he'd like them transported better for convenience.
That said, he stared at his trade partner's expression as he looked at the merchandise being ushered in.
"Enok" looked at the quality of the 'products' in disbelief. He looked appalled by their states of weakness, redness, and pus.
"What is the meaning of this?!" "Enok" yelled. "I bought slaves who could help us! Not ones about to die!! I demand a refund!"
"We have not broken any rules," Mafo said, grinning. "It is you who was rushing too much you didn't check!"
"Are you afraid of the territory backing me up?"
Mafo looked at him. "They'll be fine. I'm sure the great city can fix their appearances." He was implying this was nothing more than cosmetic, but also challenging the City's capability.
Mafo believed others thought like him and would feel like he should prove his territory's capability for the sake of pride.
"Besides, since it's a war with orcs, perhaps people with their afflictions can help out, if you know what I mean."
Mafo similarly thought everyone else treated slaves as meat shields. Elementalists or not, their use in war was to be in the front lines.
He was implying that, perhaps, they could use the illness against the enemy instead. Wouldn't that be worth the sacrifice?
Mafo watched Enok's reaction, who seemed to have entered deep thought. The man sighed in the end and Mafo grinned, knowing he had successfully convinced the other party.
"You should buy more from us, Mister. You can't get war weapons like this from others," Hesso said, patting Misha's waist.
Hesso watched the sale because of curiosity, and it was the first time Otto had seen him.
Otto's eyes, however, gravitated towards Misha and stayed on her for a moment. The woman met his eyes. Unlike other 'slaves' though, she did not feel meek and did not take away her hazel, almost golden, eyes.
Her eyes were pretty.
