It was getting late at night and I was still stuck here, in a place I knew nothing of its location, in a place with many pairs of eyes staring at me like hunger.

"A— I don't know if it ends up being this .. I will be sold as a slave and my freedom will be taken away because of this slavery! pa— when I was just rude but damn I met some jerks."

The woman's cry broke, I couldn't comfort her. To be honest I am not good at entertaining others as well now my condition with the same condition, it would be funny if I am entertaining him while I am equally afraid.

"Don't be noisy! you can't get out of here unless you buy it, either" snapped the man who drove us here.

I want to return the words if I can I also want to hit this jerk but my energy has been exhausted and my body feels very weak.

"Please bring in those slaves!" catch the show reader.

Here I can see also many women who may be the same age as me also led to the stage to be sold like animals. Some of them were also there that I saw injured in some parts of his face, some were messy clothes and torn here and there, unfortunately they are lucky beautiful women.

Me and the woman next to me followed their footsteps on stage, if I count the same number as me there are about 30 people with different ages.

"Okay, Mrs and Miss I will begin the bidding session. The highest price will be the winner!" exclaim the host.

One by one they began to be offered by the host, enthusiastically the nobles bid them even some bid with unreasonable value.

Throughout that session I kept my head down, it was soon my turn and I was now really angry. "This time is the slave that the one-eyed Master will sell, please take the slave forward!"

Huh huh? One-eyed master?

Suddenly two pairs of hands held my arms and took me forcibly to stand not far from the host. When they tried to take me, I tried my hardest to hold them back, I didn't want myself to be sold to others, I didn't want my pride to be trampled on, I have rights over myself and I am not a slave!

But I lost strongly to the power of the two people who dragged me forward, the noise I made turned out to make the damn nobles laugh.

"Look at him! that stupid slave was trying to fight, it was funny." said one of them loudly.

"If you don't want to be a child, you don't have to be born in this world!" the others said and they all laughed at me.

I hate them, I hate them so much!

"Shut up all of you! you guys think I want to be a slave huh?! damn it," I cried out in a powerless rage.

But a slap slid right on my right cheek, it came from the host. He looked at me with a condescending gaze as if I were a disgusting item and followed by the laughter of the nobles who were satisfied to see me being treated rudely.

"I don't think a slap is enough for him, a slave like you should know the place!" yell at one of them.

"Aware of being born a slave, don't pretend to be here!" the other timpal.

So many scornings they threw at me, I really felt very humbled. I couldn't even lift my head after the slap from the host, the slap made me realize how stupid I was right now.

God is not fair!

Now that I feel so embarrassed and scared, I'd rather go into the lion's den than this place. I really feel angry at everyone even God!

Why ... why am I made His run this all?! why ... why should I have this great humiliation?! why ... why do I feel so lonely here Grandma?!

"Let's start the bargaining session!" exclaim the host.

Although I did not see them but I heard that many of the nobles were bidding me. I still stand in front of them with two people in my arms and I don't know when to stand here, I just want to get home.

Hhaah! you stupid Beryl. How can I go home and get out here is not necessarily alive.

I'm aware of this really painful fact "100 gold coins" someone said.

It was like hearing a familiar voice I raised my head to see who it was. But it's disdain for everyone to wear masks except for people like me.

"Yes, 100 gold coins! is there anything higher?" ask the host.

But as far as my eyes looked I could not find them raising their hands or saying anything but 100 gold.

"Haaahh he bought a slave at that expensive price, at most the slave has no ability," said another.

"Yes, he's a waste of money. That presumptuous and impolite slave did not deserve such a price, deserved the lowest price!" the other sahut.

"Nothing else? I will close the slave bargaining session of the one-eyed Master with 100 gold coins!"

Before I was brought down by the two people who dragged me forward earlier I caught a glimpse of an old man behind the seat of the nobles watching me, I had absolutely no myopic eye disorder so I was sure that the old man was watching me and that an object in his eye caught my attention.

Isn't that a pirate eye patch? is he called the one eye?

I was dragged by the two people who held me before to enter again into a narrow place not ventilated anymore.

What about the woman I was with, huh?

Because we both have absolutely no acquaintance here which means we only rely on each other to part with the disgusting system.

"I hope he's okay, I hope he'll live on after this." I'm praying for him.

Even though our circumstances are the same but I love him more and I don't know what will happen next after this.

Can I meet Wasa again? can I meet OL again and listen to the story? can I go to Grandpa Genio to find out the answers to my past? or ... Can I be free, Lord?

"Hhhhhh ...."

I let out a long sigh, now it's too hard for me to think of pleasant things. Somehow it would feel like Wasa if she knew that I was being sold here.

"Where is he?" I heard someone's voice from outside.

"It's inside Miss" replied someone.

"I didn't expect to find him that easily, this would probably be an unforgettable surprise for the man from that arrogant family. I was looking forward to her reaction when she found out that it was her guest whom I had made a slave in my house." The person called the lady laughed.

Is he the one who bought me? what does that mean to the man from the arrogant family?

"I'm also looking forward to Miss Chalya" replied another person.

A moment ... He said Chalya? isn't Chalya one of the guests her sister Wasa has invited, right?

I hope he's not the one.

"Do you want to see him before you leave, miss?" ask someone.

"No need, we just go home Avell I'm too lazy to be here long," replied Chalya.

"Well miss."

The deg!

I remember the incident when I visited Wasa's residence, I was almost in danger at that time due to the actions of one of the guest knights of her brother Wasa and her name was Avell.

Is this a coincidence? How can their names be the same or maybe they are?

Stop Ryl, don't think negatively!

The chariot that was carrying me and the nobleman was heading in a direction I did not know, when I was told to enter this place I did not see any sign or symbol of the noble family like I saw when I went to Wasa's house.

The people here are so creepy they even wear masks and don't show where they're coming from and it makes me very curious until now even more so with the name of the one eye.

Along the way I kept praying that things would not happen that I did not want, hopefully I could escape from them. Not long after the horse carriage stopped.

"Avell help you take care of him, I'm so tired!"

"Good miss, have a good night's sleep."

I could still hear his footsteps drifting away, even though I was in this narrow place my hearing was still sharp.

Kkraa!! this wooden door opens, "Get out now!" said cold.

Without a single word I came out of that narrow place, I wish I could know the face of the one who bought me but the night was getting darker the moonlight and the stars were also invisible. "Road! No time for daydreaming."

I continued to follow him from behind, my hands were still tied and the rope was held by the person in front of me.

From the horse carriage he was still walking and told me to follow him. During the follow I passed through a magnificent garden, some buildings that are not too bright, a fountain that reflects the color of the sky to a street that there is no light in the slightest. I don't know until when I have to keep going after him because my legs are getting tired.

"This is where you sleep!"

He showed me a small, narrow, dark place and it seemed to be made of iron. I'm thinking of a future prison, but can't I be in jail?

"Why am I sleeping here? it's too cold in here, "I said.

But he gripped my left shoulder so firmly that it made me feel as if the bone in my shoulder would break because of his grip.

"Aahh .. to— please! take your hand off my shoulder, it hurts so much .." I groaned as I pleaded.

"You're not a guest here but you're a slave that Miss bought. So don't expect anything you're here for, don't try to escape because you'll know the consequences!" His bulging eyes and the pressure of his hands on my shoulders scared me.

I started crying not because of what he said just now but because of the grip that made my shoulder slowly numb and I could not control this pain.

"Curtain! there's no point in you crying." He took off his hand and walked away leaving me alone and locked this iron door.

I still continued to cry even a few hours later I was still crying until I unconsciously fell asleep with swollen eyes due to crying all night.

I heard birds singing, I forgot the name of the bird but it was different when I was at home.

Aahh .. I miss the house.

I stood up from my sitting position that supported my body all night, sometimes I move my waist that feels so stiff is also tired, I try to do light exercise before—

Kkraa!!!

"Oahh!! my shoulder bones are ringing," I cried out in pain.

All this because that guy who mercilessly treated me so badly last night. Now my shoulder hurts so much and it still feels like if I accidentally move it, I grimace after being tired of crying for a long time.

Before long someone coming from his footsteps sounded so rushed, am I going to be released?

After the iron door was opened I saw a gap to escape immediately but just a few steps out of the narrow place I passed a young woman wearing luxurious clothes like a Royal Princess.

"Do you want to greet me as if I were your savior?" that sounds to me quite sarcastic. "Or do you want to run away and hope to be saved by him?" continued.

Because here there is still no sunlight even though it is morning and this woman stands behind the light I watch her face carefully.

And what I got was something startling, how could what I didn't want to expect to happen? why did he buy me when he knew it was me?

"You're Chalya, right? Chalya's been at Wasa's residence, right?" I pointed it out to make sure it was true but a slap hit my left cheek and it came from this woman.

"Damn it! how dare you point at me with your lowly status!" the hardic.

"But I'm right, why are you—"

"Bought you? that's what you want to ask, right?" continued.

"Miss let me handle it," bargained someone who appeared behind her.

The same voice, the same posture as well the same name that person was this female Knight who almost put my life at risk back then.

"I'll talk to him first, you're outside, '" Chalya ordered.

"Well miss," he answered obediently

"Hey! I don't want to talk to a disgusting woman like you for long, but I'll remember you one thing. Don't try to think that you can get out of here because you won't be able to run away forever and slaves like you won't." He looked at me intently, "Oh yeah, I give you advice you shouldn't expect that person to save you because you're a burden to him."

After he said enough words to hurt me he left with his laughter filling this room. Enraged I intended to chase him but was held back by his mad dog-like knights.

"Back him back!" avell's orders to his subordinates.

I with the pain still on my shoulder was forced to enter again into the narrow room without mercy and only a disgusting look remained on me.

As if slapped in reality I looked back at the woman's words,

"You're a burden to her,"

"You're a burden to her,"

"You're a burden to her,"

The woman's words kept repeating in my head to make me doubt my friendship with Wasa.

I think back to the bad things that kept happening to me, am I really just a burden to Wasa?
