Chapter 16: 1

-Wake up. (Man A)

A strong punch hits my face, forces me to wake up.

-Ughh...(???)

-You useless maggot. I need you to work, not to sleep. (Man A)

The man keeps hitting me non-stop.

-If you sleep while working next time, I will throw you off the mountain. (Man A)

The man leaves after he finished hitting me. That man is the one who has the responsibility to look over all slaves. He has the right to kill the one slacking and don't do their work.

I slowly walk out of the cage I'm currently in. I am a slave who works for Acedian's noble. When I was 5, It's the time I received a skill call magical operation, since then I have always been hit and bullied by my owner and other slaves. The man on this planet can't stand having one night with a girl have the magical operation, so my owner can't make me sell the body. And I was forced to works in mine instead. My work's efficiency is much lower compares to other male slaves, so I often become a target of beating and cursing.

A slave man stands right next to me and hits my head. I can't stand its power and fall.

-Hina, you maggot what are you daydreaming for? (Slave A)

-That maggot is useless, she can't even do a simple thing as carrying the rock. (Slave B)

-Hahaha. (Slave C)

They continue hitting me for a while and leave after they feel tired of it. At first, I try hitting them back but the result of them hitting me more. It takes a while to notice they enjoy my expression when I fight back. So I slowly kill my emotion and do not respond when they hit me. With that, the frequency of them bullying me decreases. Every day of mine is passed like this; it has become a normal routine for me. I go back to slave camp to have dinner then I try to sleep in the corner of the slave rest's room. Aside from me, there are 19 other slaves in the room, so each person can have a very tiny space to sleep.

While I'm resting, I feel something hit my side of my body.

-Maggot, gets up and gets us some water. (Slave D)

-Uggh~(Hina)

-You heard that? (Slave E)

They continuously hit my face and leave me no choice to wake up and follow their order. I run fastly through the slave camp to get them the drink.

-Uhgmm~(Hina)

Due to darkness, I feel I have hit another person while carrying those drinks.

-Are you alright? (???)

-Ughmm~(Hina)

-Girl, you have many bruises on your body. (???)

-Yes...(Hina)

-That sign on your neck, you seem to be a "mage slave", no wonder. (???)

The elder woman holds my hand and makes me follow her. She leads me to a small house.

-This is where I live. It's quite small but very comfy to live in. (???)

Then she comes into the house and gets something while telling me to wait outside. After waiting for her for 5 minutes, the elder woman comes back with some kind of potion in her hand.

-Girl, drinks this. It will ease the pain from beating. (???)

I listen to her and take the potion; I feel like my body feels much lighter and there is no more pain.

-Girl what's your name? (???)

-Hina. (Hina)

-That's a great name you have. (???)

I just nod to agree with the old woman.

-You can call me Arpetio, Hina. (Arpetio)

Whatever I just nod to this old woman said. If I do not go back soon, those guys will hit me again.

-Go back... Hit. (Hina)

-Don't worry, from now on you won't be hit anymore. (Arpetio)

Then she pats my head. I don't know why she pats my head but I feel a little warm in my heart. After finishing talking, she takes me to the guard.

-Hi, is your captain here? (Arpetio)

-He is not here right now, ma'am. Let's me go and call him. (Guard A)

A man with a mustache comes after being called by the guard.

-Hello doctor, what do you need me at this hour for? (Guard Captain)

-Hi Captain, can I ask of you for something for a moment? (Arpetio)

-Yes, I'm listening. (Guard Captain)

-Can I get this slave as a handyman for me? I need a person to find the herbs on the mountain. (Arpetio)

After that, she shows me in front of the captain. After looking at the sign on my neck, he looks at me with eyes full of contempt:

-Do you sure want to use this one? (Guard Captain)

-Yes, just give her to me. (Arpetio)

The captain makes a sigh then continue:

-Then she is yours but makes sure don't let this one have too much freedom, doctor. Or one day, you will regret it. (Guard Captain)

-I know. (Arpetio)

After finishing talking, the captain left the guard room. The elder woman no, Arpetio pats my head again:

-Time to move to your new home. (Arpetio)
