"There's... there's a scratch on my face. I want you to tell me about the kid"
In his 90th, he finally discovered a slave of qualities.
She's a girl with pink curly hair and patchy eyes.
Now she is wearing crude clothes and her hair is puffy, but she has a cute face that would glow if she polished it.
... ruined because of the big wound that ran on my face...
"Yes, I did. This slave is a 12-year-old general lifelong slave. It was sold out of mouth because she was the daughter of a poor farmer and could not provide money to cross the winter. I planned to sell it as a whore because it looked good even though it was a child, but being raided and wounded in the face by a group of wild dogs in transit led me to put it up for sale as a general slave. We are slaves who are fine with whatever use you use them for."
I see.
She does have a cute face, but she's not as beautiful as a superb girl, so even if she treated her with potion, was it a class she couldn't sell to a whorehouse for an expensive price?
To a pretty cute degree, I'd say you can't spend (expensive potion).
... lucky for me.
"How much?
"It is one gold coin and three silver plates"
"Bought"
1.3 million yen for the Japanese yen… Considering the price of promising talent in the future, it's a super bargain even for the potion.
"Yes, I did. Then we'll do the contract. Put a drop of blood on the neck of this slave."
If you do as they say with a little blood on the needle, the slaver casts a spell in an awesome shape.
... Is this slave magic?
A beautiful green pattern wrapped me and the girl, sucked into the neck with blood on it, and it became a 500-yen jade pattern.
"The transfer of slaves has been completed. From now on, this slave will obey Lord Zink's orders 100%."
A slaver who gives a sweaty, cut feeling.
Perhaps with his power, it's critical to make one slave contract at a time.
"Thank you.... Hey you, I'm going home"
"Yes, sir."

I think this is worth a few pieces of white gold coins.
I was really lucky to have done it with 13 silver plates.
I don't see any notable talent in the armpit system, but once I have the qualities to be crowded... I wouldn't die early if I just let the gear buff raise my HP.
"Ah, Jink. Welcome home! You found a good slave!
"It's a culinary specialty, but I had a kid with good qualities.... His name is Nina. I can't expect much from the battle, so I'm going to try my best as a cook if I let my HP go up at least. Can I borrow the kitchen and the ingredients while I buy the house?
Until I go to the dungeon, I want to practice cooking and blossom my cooking skills.
"Copy that. I'll get in touch with my family and servants."
"Helpful. Honestly, I've never cooked anything but steak, so the ingredients, seasonings, and how to make them are refreshing."
"Haha. I've never even cooked steak. [M] Looks like you can choose classes in the higher school building because you need minimal cooking to be a knight or an adventurer. I want to belong to the Knights until I take over the house too, so I'm trying to make a choice!
"You can't bring a non-combatant cook to a battlefield or a dungeon. In my case, there's an item box, so I made a ton of steaks at home, threw them in a pot, and kept them, but the adventurers I saw when I ran away from Los Saltas, they had dried meat back and turned it into soup, and baked the prey I'd hunted on the spot."
"I see."
When it comes to the flavour of blah blah blah preserved foods, I guess it's a level of losing if you care... I guess there's nothing else to break it off to get nutritious.
Even if you hold an item box or a magic bag, most of the time the capacity is no big deal, so you don't want to spend your precious space on food.
... I don't want to split up when it comes to meals, so I won't hesitate to make use of the item box in the future...
"Chris, by the way. At the slave trade mall I went to today, there wasn't a guy with eye-catching combat qualities... is there a good place?
"Uh-huh...... Because that's the only approved slave trade mall in Quorarto...... Oh, … there is one. I don't care if you're a criminal slave, but if you get permission from the state, there's another place you can buy slaves."
Hmm?
"Slavery, prisoner trading, good offices."
Slavery inmate trading bureau?
Are you an intermediary specializing in criminal slavery?
"Is there also a rank for criminal slaves... only criminal slaves who are judged to be ok without surveillance in the country or petty criminals deemed incapable of paying fines are sold at the slave trade mediation office"
Heh...
"Criminal slaves sold at slave trading offices for a certain period of time or with no margin of circumstance are sent to mining sites to be used until death"
"Even if you sell it to the people, aren't they with you until you die?
"That's more likely too... because it's far better than mine slaves. They say if they were made mine slaves, they'd die almost 100% within a year, and the bodies would be properly thrown into the mine veins that they dug up. One, the slaves in the good offices often live for a few years, so criminals who have been slaughtered are desperate to appeal to the good offices."
I see.
According to the Quor Act, even crimes committed under unstoppable circumstances, like burglary in trouble to eat, are likely to go to slavery if caught.
If I miss it, I will almost certainly steal it again if I have trouble eating it.
"How am I supposed to get permission?
"The application form and 'The slave I bought will not be released within the working period!' You can write a pledge and apply at the Royal Palace. Basically, I only give permission to aristocrats, big merchants, and high-ranking adventurers who have a proven track record and credibility in the Kingdom of Quor, because you, Jink, would almost certainly give permission."
Even an ex-convict with zero track record (though it's a grievance) will get permission... you mean the rarity of the granting magician is not Dada?
To be honest, I'm afraid to side with a slave who committed a crime, albeit absolute obedience, but I'm not complimented for my actions in Rosarta either, so there's no point in me complaining about a criminal slave.
There's no such thing as an extenuating circumstance. There's no such thing as a murderer, so you might want to compromise.
