ALL NOVEL Chapter 62: Curse of the Night
The three beasts were suddenly very agitated. It seemed that they were feeling something within the slave market.
Liu Yang headed towards the place where the beasts were rocking. Whenever Liu Yang missed the direction, the beasts would swing to one side indicating which way he had to go.
Because of this, Liu Yang kept pacing until he found the right direction and the location that the beasts were indicating.
Callie and Orman Actor saw the scene with strange looks, as they did not know what Liu Yang was looking for. Liu Yang only stopped when he arrived in front of a closed and sealed tent.
"Mr. Orman, what's inside that tent?" Liu Yang was curious.
For the three beasts to be acting in this strange way, what is inside the tent must be something that lets them that way.
"In that tent? Mr. River, this tent contains special slaves. I don't like to put them out because they don't like the light very much and the customers are afraid of them "Orman Actor spoke mysteriously.
"Special slaves? I was curious about it "
"If Mr. River wishes, I can show the slaves in this tent, but I can only show them from the other side. These slaves are kept in a special cage "
"No problem" Liu Yang was curious to see what kind of special slaves these were.
"Follow me" The fat slave salesman walked to a door at the end of the market and gesture for Liu Yang to follow him. The pair also entered the door.
The place where they entered was a corridor of cages, each of the cages contained animals and humans. They were all slaves with handcuffs on their arms and legs.
Callie was scared to see this scene, as she had never seen anything like it before. Liu Yang was not surprised to see this scene, as he had seen it many times in anime and manga.
Orman Actor walks up a corridor and points to a door.
"Mr. River, these are the slaves inside that tent"
When the door was opened, a dark room was shown. Suddenly, dozens of bright eyes appeared in the darkness.
"Ahhh!!!" Callie fell in a startling way. This scene surprised her.
(That is ... Those glowing eyes are the same eyes that the three beasts had when they were under the curse) Liu Yang remembered the sparkle in their eyes.
"Mr. River seems to know those eyes" Orman Actor was not surprised by Liu Yang's calm.
Someone who has fought for several nights in a row against night beasts would know the shape of those eyes.
"Yes. Mr. Orman, theses special slaves, are they cursed creatures? " Liu Yang asked solemnly. He finally understood why the three beasts were agitated.
The three felt the energy of the curse and started to get agitated.
"Yes. They are slaves with the Curse of the Night. They're not just beasts, I have humans with the curse too. Mr. River, follow me. I will show the slaves "Orman Actor entered the dark room. Liu Yang and Callie followed behind.
Liu Yang was not surprised to hear the name of the curse, the nobles who were in the caravan commented on this before.
The dark room was suddenly lit and the interior was shown.
Unlike the previous tents where the slaves were only handcuffed and seated, slaves with the curse had blindfolds on their eyes. Despite that, the glow was so strong that their eyes look like shiny gems.
Each of them was thin and dry as if they hadn't eaten in a long time. It seemed that the slave seller didn't have much hope of selling them, so he left them to die little by little without having to feed them.
The slaves were more agitated when the room was lit.
"Don't they like the light?" Liu Yang understood when he saw this scene.
"Yes. As beings cursed with the Curse of the Night, they are disturbed by any kind of light, because of that, I need to sell their eyes and put them in dark environments. "
"I see ... What is the price of these slaves?" Liu Yang wanted to learn more about the Curse of the Night, so it was easier to study if he has a slave with that curse.
"Mr. River, cursed slaves are at the same price as intermediate slaves, because they are very strong, but they are very problematic in controlling. The curse makes them very strong and very difficult to control by their owners. Because of that, they are not very popular." Orman Actor has a hard time selling a cursed slave because the owners don't want a slave they can't control.
"Do you have information about their skills?" Liu Yang was interested in buying some slaves with the curse. Can be a beast or a human.
"Yes. Mr. River can look in this book "Orman Actor showed a book containing the status and ability of each of the human and beasts cursed slaves.
"How much is their price?"
"Prices are fixed at 2 gold coins" For an ordinary person, two gold coins was an absurd amount. But Liu Yang had several dozen gold coins with him. He received it from the group of assassins and the principal of the magic academy.
"I see..." Liu Yang started flipping through the pages of the book to see if there were any slaves with any interesting skills.
The cursed slaves were not many, about twenty-nine, of whom nine were human, two men and seven women, and twenty were beasts, most of the beasts were also female.
(It seems that this curse is more likely to affect females than males. But this may also be a coincidence, I need to check out more on this subject) Liu Yang thought about this theory after looking at the book and his beasts, the three were females.
It didn't take long for Liu Yang to finish flipping through the book.
(If I had time and money, I would buy all these slaves, but I will have to leave that for another time)
"Mr. River, did you find any slave interesting?" Orman Actor saw that Liu Yang had finished browsing the book and asked. He had expectations of selling one of those cursed slaves.
"Yes. I would like to buy that slave over there "Liu Yang pointed to a thin, dry woman, it seemed that she did not eat properly for a long time.
Despite the bones showing in her thin, dry body, she had long hair and a refined face. She would be a beautiful woman if it weren't for the thinness and the curse.
The woman's arms and legs were covered with something dark and strange. Her limbs turned into extremely sharp dark claws.
As the woman only wore two pieces of clothing, almost her entire body was shown before Liu Yang's eyes. He saw that besides the legs and arms, some dark marks can be seen on her back and belly.
This is one of the reasons why they are chained. Sharp claws can easily kill someone with a low level.
"Is she? Does Mr. River really want to buy her? This slave has one of the worst temperaments among the cursed slaves. She almost killed some groups that tried to buy her before. Mr. River, you better watch out for her. I would not recommend you buy her" Orman Actor spoke with a serious tone. He had already seen some people try to buy this slave,
The slave that Liu Yang was interested in was the best slave among the cursed slaves. So it was normal for many others to be interested in buying her too.
"Mr. Orman, you don't have to worry about that. I will buy her. What will the procedures be like? " Liu Yang did not know if this was the same in the novels or not.
"Mr. River, we give customers an item with the slave's seal. If Mr. River can control this seal, you will have control of the slave. But as cursed slaves are more difficult to deal with, we put them inside a special room to avoid problems. But you also need to be inside the room. "
"Ok. You can make preparations. "
"As Mr. River made up his mind. I will make the preparations. Mr. River, follow me. I will take you to the seal control room "Orman Actor took Liu Yang to a room at the end of the hall.
The room was empty, but claws cuts, cracks, and holes were all over the walls and the floor. This shows that trying to tame a slave was more difficult than it looks.
The slave that Liu Yang had chosen was already in the room, she was lying on the floor with her arms and legs handcuffed to the wall.
"Mr. River, I need to say that she is much more powerful than she looks. Last time, she managed to break the chains and almost killed the person who wanted to buy her. "
"Ok. Will the door be locked? "
"Yes. This is to prevent her from escaping. If you need help, I will send my subordinates to contain her"
"OK. You can close the door. "
"Mr. River, this is her slave seal. Success depends only on you "Orman Actor locked the steel door.
There was a small window at the door to see what was going on inside the room. Callie and the slave seller were looking into the room.
"Show me how strong you are" Liu Yang walked slowly towards the woman chained to the wall.
