Chapter 2351 How To Own

Yufor took Davis on tour, embarking on something that consisted of traversing a gloomy atmosphere.

As soon as they appeared on the first floor, Davis saw a straight pathway leading to the very end of the palace. He stepped out of the stairs and saw units aligned along the pathway. Each unit appeared to have a living room and enclosed restroom towards the corner.

It was like a prison but much more s.p.a.cious and possessed the amenities required to live in hygiene.

Once the slaves in the units could see him walk along the pathway, some began releasing their undulations as they made enacted their skillful moves, while a few others didn"t bother to cast a look at him. They didn"t have vacant gaze in their eyes but had an unmotivated look, some sharp and some deadly.

Davis recognized that the slaves kept here at the entrance of the first floor were at Level One Immortal Stage. Evidently, most slaves held on the ground floor were a part of the slave roulette game. As for the valuable slaves, they were held on their respective floors and blocks.

This block only seemed to have Level One Immortals.

Nonetheless, it didn"t matter if it was a magical beast, human, fey, or spirit. If they were in their human form, everyone wore white robes as though it was their uniform.

Led by Yufor, they headed further and saw a big divide appear. It split the pathway into five ways, and the signs hung above those pathways were self-evident, informing what kind of slaves were kept and where they were kept. Obviously, every slave on the first floor was a normal slave, but there were five pathways after the initial display, leading to the west, northwest, north, northeast, and east.

"As patron can see, the mortal realm slaves are held in the west pathway. The other four are all immortal pathways, but they"re divided into the human pathway, magical beast pathway, spirit pathway, and fey pathway. Patron can choose which one to enter, but if you"d like me to show around, it"s my pleasure."

"Show me around."

Davis"s voice was bland, but Yufor wasn"t the slightest bit disturbed as he led Davis to the west pathway.

In the west pathway that held mortal slaves, Davis saw all four races here, but the diversity was so huge that he mused that the western path took up most of the palace"s s.p.a.ce on the first floor. The western pathway was split into many other pathways, categorized over race, species, and law attributes.

It was like a maze, but Yufor had a composed look on his face as he took Davis around and explained everything he required.

If he had some doubt, it would quickly be cleared.

In the human mortal slave pathway, he found so many men and women, most of them trying to catch his attention with their strength or charm. Apparently, if they were not sold within a certain amount of time, they would probably be sent to do dangerous tasks like exploring danger zones as though they were cannon fodders or most likely killed.

"We have no choice but to get rid of them. We"ll finally try to sell them for a low price, but if even that does not work, then they will eventually be punished for the crimes they or their families have committed. They"re only alive because someone decided to use their lives instead of making them disappear. To these slaves, being bought and used is akin to repenting for their crimes while their master is also responsible for keeping them bound in invisible chains so that they don"t commit crimes."

Yufor explained many things.

The rules of acquiring and keeping slaves weren"t simple. Besides, there were many intricacies in how to use them properly.

For example, there were captured ruthless killers here who were sold as slaves. They didn"t have karmic sin in Davis"s view because they possibly couldn"t have killed a million people or a karmically virtuous person but still appeared as though they were a menace, possessing blunt and penetrating features that would cause the people in front of them to be intimidated.

Although these ruthless killers were considered normal slaves, they remained useful for people who liked their slaves to do their bidding. Sometimes, these slaves were just a scapegoat to them, but slaves belonged to their masters, so inversely, the master was responsible for the slave.

Any vile actions done by the slave will result in the master paying the price for it in the view of the city law. Therefore, it was a two-way street where the master is incentivized to treat the slave better so that the slave doesn"t screw them when not looking, and the master doesn"t instantly kill the slave with just a single thought after using them up.

However, these were just city rules. Any actions done outside cities, outside the world"s view, are not applied by the law, and this is where the ruthless killers actually come in handy, so the master wouldn"t be penalized by the city law.

Basically, these killer types of normal slaves were sold like hotcakes, but there were also others who specialized in other areas but couldn"t be considered specialist slaves.

Davis learned many things, including rules he wasn"t aware of by just reading a book as he saw through so many loopholes. Nonetheless, he took his time scrutinizing the slaves with his karmic vision as he walked past them, wondering if he would be lucky enough to find one with a big enough ripple of karmic sin.

However, for such individuals, he imagined that they would be battle slaves located on the second floor.

After checking the human slaves in the mortal realm, Davis was taken to the pathway where the magical beast slaves were kept.

Within a few steps of walking past three cells, his eyes flickered ever so lightly as he found a magical beast with dragon blood.

But unfortunately, it was a Roving Breeze Skylark, a mixed offspring between Sovereign Wind Skylark and the Wind Dragon. Both these immortal beasts were considered to be a part of the Five Grand Sky Supreme Beasts. They dominated the wind attribute in the magical beast world.

As for the other three Grand Sky Supreme Beasts, they were the Wind Phoenix, Wind Devouring Garuda, and Emerald Gale Roc.

Davis imagined that all five clans of these magical beasts existed in the First Haven World, and just like the Fire Phoenix Clan, they also probably owned one or two Prefectures to themselves. He couldn"t help but imagine how vast the First Haven World was once again.

"Patron, look at this Roving Breeze-"

Yufor was perceptive. He noticed that Davis"s gaze lingered on the Roving Breeze Skylark and started to explain about it. It cost about five hundred immortal crystals due to its dragon blood.

But Davis shortly interrupted him and asked him to move on.

Yufor didn"t ask why but continued to take him on the promised tour, telling him that patron satisfaction was the most important to them and that the workers here would cater to the patron"s preferences until they could choose the best slave possible for them.

Davis had crossed paths with many patrons by this time. He didn"t talk with them, although they did glance at each other. However, he could see that each worker accompanying the patrons was well-informed, polite, and professional with a tinge of their own quirky att.i.tude.

However, he couldn"t see a single female worker here, making him wonder if they were careful not to cause their patrons to be attracted by their workers instead of the goods.
