Inheriting a Lost Bloodline, My First Task is to have heirs?! -
Chapter 219 - 219 - A busy evening
I was tired after all the cooking and the drama but will this body that the gods made for procreation be able to decline such an offer? Nope. Never. It has always been ready to pounce on willing vict-, rather men. And here I am, in front of someone who looked shy and all but was asking to be eaten.
I smiled at him sweetly then gave an order, "Remove all your clothes and lay on the bed." His eyes widened at my instructions as if he couldn't believe that I am actually giving him the reward he bravely requested for. When my instructions finally sunk into his mind, he hurriedly removed all of his clothes as if he was scared that I will change my mind. He then laid on the bed but he hid under the blanket with a blushing face.
I decided to keep my clothes on for this session since I won't be staying that long here anyways. I crawled towards him and snuck inside the blanket. I teased him by saying, "Since you want to stay covered, I'll stay under the blankets then. You are not allowed to peek at what I'm doing. If you do so, I'll stop everything. Understood?" The only thing he could reply was, "Ye- Yes, master."
The rest of the night was filled with heavy breaths and whimpering from Galen. The bed creaked quite loudly too. I think I got too carried away and got too intense on him. He passed out on his fourth climax as expected from a humans and their fragile constitution.
I gave him a bath and cleaned the bed that we messed up. I made him wear his undergarments that I already cleaned. At least, he won't feel to exposed or cold, before tucking him on the bed to ensure his undisturbed sleep. I made sure to apply a healing spell on the guy since it was my fault he looks so messed up right now.
As for me, I stealthily left Kama and went to another place to eat and drink. Since I am craving for something "no holds barred" today, I decided to go to the auction house that I accidentally discovered last time. The thought of visiting was forgotten due to the more important tasks that I had to complete in Freyheimr.
Since I have some free time in my hands, I have time to do a quick visit today. It was Wednesday today so there should be new "items" for sale as they call it if I remembered what the attendant said last time I was here.
As I neared the door of the auction house, the same attendant greeted me. He stuttered for a bit as he recognized a familiar face. When he saw me, he looked surprised and excited all of a sudden.
He almost ran to me as he said, "I thought you would never visit again or you were uninterested in the items we offer here." I gave him a perfunctory smile and replied, "I was quite busy and only remembered about you having new wares on Wednesdays. I have some free time today so here I am hoping you can convince me to buy an item or two off of your hands." He energetically nodded and guided me inside the establishment.
The name of this place is quite obvious, "Sklavryet Auction House". It seems that they did not give much thought about the naming of this place as long as it serves its intended purpose.
The attendant then gave me a conniving look and whispered that since it was my first time here and I was the first person who arrived to check on the new batch of items, he can give me a preferential treatment to get a first glimpse on all items available.
From him, I learned that the auction is usually done at noon while the items arrive the night before or early morning of the same day. I gave him an amused look and threw him a pouch with 10 silver coins inside as a tip for the preferential treatment he was giving me. He gratefully accepted it with a huge grin on his face.
We went through a lot of twists and turns across the underground corridors of the auction house until he stopped in front of a huge metal door. He knocked using a specific rhythm and the door was opened using a mechanism from the inside. What welcomed me were several metal cages with unkempt men of different races chained inside. Each of them have dazed and lifeless eyes. They look exactly like how Richard was when I first met him in Elysia.
I walked around with a cold face as if shopping for "items" was nothing new to me. I saw a few items which are more battered than others and a few that were tied up quite securely, most likely to prevent them from escaping. I don't know how they got this many but I am quite sure they came from different places given their different races and physical characteristics.
As I peeked into the seventh cage on my right, I had to look intensely as I saw a familiar face from Richard's memory. I asked the attendant if I can go into the minds of these men using mana to check on their origins and he said yes since they won't be able to fight back in their current state. It was like admitting that the auction house had indeed drugged them to ensure they were unconditionally obedient all the time. I almost rolled my eyes but it was a good thing I was able to stop showing my real thoughts on my face.
I tapped at the seventh metal cage a few times to signal the auction house attendants to bring out the item from the cage I have chosen. They dragged the man out towards where I am and he looked quite dirty with his hair unkempt and his face, unshaven. He was wearing what looked like rags and he was riddled with a lot of wounds too, both old and new ones.
Once he was near, I placed my right hand on his head and started injecting my mana to read his memories. It took some time for me to look through his memories to see if he ever met Richard. Soon enough, I have confirmed that it was indeed Richard's older brother who was supposed to be sent to Viridis. The question now is what happened and how did he end up in this slave auction house?
I went through his memories more and it seems like he did everything he could to escape before he was brought into the walls of the enemy kingdom. He lived a few weeks of hunger, thirst and constant stress from pursuers. He then decided to block a slaver's caravan and pretended to pass out so they will take him in as one of their items as his last desperate move to escape.
Once he was inside the caravan, he suffered a really high fever at the start of the caravan's journey bound for Sklavryet. Due to limited amount of medicine, his wounds started festering. His body not able to fight sickness due to his previous weeks of fatigue and malnutrition. The slavers had to do everything to keep him alive.
Once he was better, he tried to escape but caught which explains his new wounds. He was drugged to become the obedient puppet that he is right now. They checked on him and found that he was still pure though his mind seemed to be fragile as of the moment.
I looked at the auction house attendant and outright ask the selling price of the guy. The slaver then expressed his difficulty since the guy was supposed to be sold off to the highest bidder. He started saying that he was still pure and seemed to come from a noble house. I then directly asked him the highest bid they ever got for a main item and he said that it was at 700 silvers.
I gave him a pouch of 700 silvers like it was nothing and asked him to pack this guy up for me. I asked him to give me a receipt for the payment I made.
The attendant was shocked but followed my instructions to a tee. Money talks in this type of establishment anyways. I walked around the establishment but did not see any more interesting guys.
I did see three guys with a golden light aura. I touched them to make sure their souls are marked for their future return to Eieneos. As for their current plight, I am not allowed to meddle. Their return to the kingdom will have to wait until the time of their natural death in the future.
Since I already went shopping, I took the wrapped up guy which is my present for Richard. I carried the guy on my shoulder then teleported inside the main building of Noir. This immediately alerted everyone in the place. When they saw me carrying an unconscious guy, they were surprised. I asked for a room which they immediately provided.
Once inside the room, I gave the guy a proper bath, gave him a proper haircut and shave then clothed him in simple clothes provided to trainees in HQ. I checked on his wounds, had to sew a few deep ones and healed up the festering ones. I gave him a few potions for the blood loss, anti-inflammation, antibiotics and malnutrition. It was good that my storage space is huge so I can confidently say I am a walking pantry and hospital.
Since I am done with everything I had to do, I left him to the care of the infirmary assistants. Before I left, I told them to give Richard a heads up about this guy tomorrow morning as well as give him the receipt of my purchase of the guy's slave contract.
Once done with everything, I teleported back to my original home. I peeked into the bathroom and sighed in relief since at least he was out of the tub. We each had separate rooms before and third one in the middle which is our currently shared room. I don't know where he decided to sleep but I will be sleeping in my own room today.
I only had less than 2 hours of rest when I had to wake up again to go to work at the port. I had a quick change of clothes then went straight to work. I have to make most out of my last two weeks here to earn money before going back to the academe.
These last two weeks of work was to ensure that I fully complete the required number of work days for my immersion subject. To say it simply, it was like completing your on-the-job training hours before graduating from the university.
