The Ultimate Principality System
Chapter 21 - The Prince Who Freed the Slaves

I got out of the house after checking the inside.

Outside, I saw that everything was very busy preparing for something.

Because this is a forest, so it makes it rich in wood and other natural resources.

I saw the men cutting down trees and collecting them in one place.

On the other hand, I saw Rokie building her simple house.

It was a workshop made of stone and wood materials. In appearance, it looked only a few meters tall then looked quite narrow.

I just wanted to see her before something made me fall silent.

[New Mission: Freeing 100 slaves] | [Gift: +50 homes and +500,000 Gold.]

Wait, whoah! What's?!

"Freeing the slave you say?"

I don't even know if there's such a thing as a slavery system here.

"Sir, is something wrong?" Lucfier who was near me managed to catch the shock I let out.

"Well, ummm ... I'm thinking of finding a slave."

And in those words, Lucfier seemed to be silent for some time before his behavior turned enthusiastic.

"As expected of a genius. Your plan to make slaves cheap labor is a brilliant idea."

"You mean, they can be hired like that?" Well, I don't know why he could say I was the one who seemed to be planning the idea.

But, I'm sure most slaves were indeed used for physical and menial work.

"They are like that. No one cares if we treat her badly." (Lucfier)

It seems, slaves are something that can be used at will and become a commodity that is selling well in the market.

I hear, they don't even need a decent place to sleep.

Also, for the slaves, food was something they needed most to survive.

Sometimes, there are some who are willing to do hard work just for the sake of a loaf of bread.

"I found one place we can go today."

"Wait, don't tell me it's the place I'm looking for?" Lucfier was shaking his head when I asked him that.

In this way, me and Lucfier then went together and headed to something grand in the city of Kathalan.

"There my lord, I heard there was such a thing as a slave trader. And it seemed like every day the number of their goods increased after the New King was chosen."

I was amazed at what was in front of me.

In front of me, there is a building called a five-story building.

From the outside, anyone will know this includes luxury.

I haven't entered it yet, so I don't know the inside of the house yet.

With Lucfier, we opened the shop door and were greeted by someone with a moustache.

"Welcome gentlemen. Looks like something in my simple shop caught your attention."

"Yes, that's it." Long story short, the man was the owner of this business.

He was short but looked fat.

His appearance also looks quite striking.

I thought he must have made a lot of profit from making this trade.

"Simple, my Lord wants you to show me some that will attract his attention." The man immediately responded to Lucfier's words by directing us into the basement.

It was a dark place in my opinion.

Along the hallway, only iron fences and dirty walls were seen.

"They are criminal slaves. But some are slaves because of debt."

I see, there are two types of slaves that I can find here.

The first are criminals, they are a collection of criminals or bandits who now end up being slaves because of their deeds in the past.

So, instead of imprisoning them, it would be more profitable to make those criminals into cheap, disposable labor.

Also, the shopkeeper said, once you find something like a collar around your neck, forever one will not be able to return to a normal human life.

Meanwhile, debt slaves.

But, still, the treatment they received was not too much different like a criminal slave.

"Usually, most people prefer women. Because other than you can use it for your purposes ..." I then understood the man's intentions.

Because I did the same thing to Aisha.

Although it was a little different since he was a subordinate.

"So, you're saying there's about a hundred slaves, right?"

"Ah, yes. That would be a hundred after-Ah-Ah!" The man's face became panicked after Lucfier pulled out a sharp object that was now right next to the man's neck.

"We'll take them all, certainly without paying." (Lucfier)

"What's? You're crooks, how dare!" (Slave Traders)

I patted my eel because Lucfier decided to decide for himself.

I did plan to free the slaves and complete the mission, but not in such a reckless manner.

"By the way, what is the price of each of these slaves?"

"Ah, yes ... They're arguably very cheap, you can get for a thousand." (Slave Traders)

Really? It was even twenty times cheaper than the price of my sword.

I don't know why it could happen, but it looks like I'll need 100,000 to have it all.

However, it seems like my money is not enough.

So, with a grinning smile I got an evil idea in my head.

"Ah, come! You guys I'll report to the Knights for doing this." (Slave Traders)

"Sir, have you decided?" (Lucfier)

"Well, take them all." (Lein)

"Oh, yes! What's?! Don't joke-Ugh!" I covered the man's mouth with a cloth as he started shouting loudly as we tried to open one of the prison doors.

Meanwhile, Lucfier, who had already crippled the man, immediately did something to the people in the cage.

"I can make them subordinates with my recruiting skills and keep them in my control. What do you think, sir?"

"Do that." I'm shaking my head.

After all, it was not much different from enslaving.

You know, a superior order would be absolute once someone was recruited to use the skill.

Lucfier did it to the first ten slaves he met.

Those are the people who sell themselves out of debt, then most of them are women.

"Hmm?"

When I saw one more cell. Some have unusual ears, but the appearance still resembles a human form.

"A-They must be half animals."

I just found out about this.

In addition to humans, the shopkeeper also had a cat-eared girl, then several youths with dog ears.

They looked confused by our arrival at first and were quite surprised.

But, soon the shock of these slaves reached its peak after Lucfier had finished his work.

"Completed ... You will be under my responsibility from now on." I said that to everyone.

"Wait, don't tell me you released us?" The cat-eared girl came up to me while saying that.

"Yes, that's it."

Honestly, I was almost a little misbehaved after the girl always ended her sentence with "Meow" or something.

I then collected debt slaves while Lucfier overcame the criminal slaves.

"You will work very hard from now on. I won't behave as well as my Master does." And in that sentence, he laughed as if enjoying it all.

Well, he's a demon. So it makes him look even more evil when he says it.

The criminal slaves also looked resigned.

But, there were some who looked unconcerned and just silent.

I then went to bring everything together when a notification appeared like, [Mission Succeed] | [+500.000 Gold] | [+50 Home]
