[Energy Level: 421 level!]
[Target Y Name: KoKo Cha]
[Bloodline Power: It's highly possible that he has already awakened one of the three Gorgon Sisters' Bloodline!]
"Wow-ho-ho! He's way stronger than you in terms of energy level… I beg your pardon for my bluntness. But how are you going to retrieve the God Crystal Stone from his hand?" Cynthia asked telepathically in his head.
As Bobby grinned, he responded telepathically, "We'll find out about that. I'm looking forward to having a good fight with someone who is way above my current energy level. I'm pumped already."
Meanwhile, Shadow Slave followed the same routine of acting as Chieftain Juno, raising no suspicion about KoKo Cha.
"Alright, Chieftain Juno, what business do you want to discuss with me?" KoKo Cha asked without beating around the bush. He didn't bat an eye at the two humans who came with the fake Chieftain Juno.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShadow Slave gulped down the last cup of the red wine in one fell swoop, placed it on the table, and replied while wiping his lips with the sleeve, "Town Leader Cha, you know perfectly well why I'm here. We have been doing business for how long…um… over a hundred years. And there is no need for us to beat around the bush. So, tell me. Do you like the two commodities I brought here?"
Upon hearing that, KoKo Cha reclined back on the couch and glanced at Bobby and Layla. He scanned Bobby's body, trying to sense his strength, and then his gaze shifted to Layla. "Huh!" He exclaimed, almost standing up. 'Argh, what am I doing? I almost lost my senses because of her. Pull yourself together, KoKo Cha. She is just a mere human savage. Anyway, she is prettier than any lady I have seen until today. I'll make her mine today.' He thought in his head.
Then he said, "Little Girl, raise your chin and look at me."
Layla clenched her palms and gave a death glare at him.
"Oh, a feisty one, too. I'm going to like her more and more. Since you have a pretty face, I'll consider buying you. Now, strip!" KoKo Cha said, looking at her lustfully.
Layla shook her body in anger and complained telepathically to Bobby, "I'm not showing myself naked to another man. I can do anything for you. But this! Just kill me, Damien."
"Calm down! You don't need to do anything. Rest assured that I will kill him later." Bobby responded telepathically. Then he sent another hidden instruction to the Shadow Slave.
Shadow Slave said in an indifferent voice, "No-no, Town Leader KoKo, let's cut to the chase. She is mine unless you buy her from me. So, don't you order my slaves to do anything? Or I'll just barge out of your palace."
KoKo Cha was unhappy with his tone. But he didn't show it. "Well, I'll buy them both. So, how much do you need?" He asked.
"In order for me to give you an accurate price, I want to brief you on my commodities. The male is a young Grade-D slave. And you'll not believe this…. He is a member of the Central Continent's terrorist, the Human Revolutionary Party." Shadow Slave said.
Hearing the name of the human terrorist group piqued his interest, so KoKo Cha jumped in, asking: "Oh, interesting! So, why is a terrorist from the Central Continent doing here in our Eastern Muxia Continent?"
"Sir, with all due respect, I've already browbeaten him into confession after me and my tribe's powerful warriors caught him…. The Human Revolutionary Group sends out a group of elites like him to infiltrate our eastern soil and freed all the slaves in their cause. But, hee-hee, I broke him and turned him into a wonderful dog." Shadow Slave responded with a light chuckle.
KoKo Cha said, "A wonderful dog. That sounds nice. Well, I can give you five Grade-1 Crystal Mines for him."
"Wait-wait, hold on a few minutes! Let me end my pitch first." Shadow Slave continued, "Sir, the female slave is, without a doubt, a rare beauty. Plus, she is a virgin. And today, I came here to sell them on a set. So you can buy them both or just forget I'm here."
"Ho-ho-ho, Chieftain Juno, you're becoming better and better in this business." KoKo Cha responded and started throwing his price, "I'll buy them both for three Grade-2 Crystal Mines. You can choose yourself. What do you think?"
Shadow Slave remained silent.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSeeing the frown, KoKo Cha continued, "Fine, tell me your catch. I can't go over 5 Grade-2 Mines."
"I think I came to the wrong place to do business. Thanks for the drink." Shadow Slave said and stood up to leave the hall.
KoKo Cha reacted faster as he held his hand and asked with a smile, "A'ight! What do you want?"
"I want the Red Stone I sold to you last time." Shadow Slave finally spoke. "Town Leader, my master needs it for his declining health. So, either you give it to me or.."
Letting go of his hands, KoKo Cha knitted his brows and said, "Butler Kurr, escort the guest out!" Then he returned to the couch.
With no hesitation, Shadow Slave sauntered to walk out of the hall.
Just as he was about to walk out of the entrance, KoKo Cha asked, "Now I'm out. Who are you going to?"
Halting, Shadow Slave replied, "Umm…. I'll try my luck with Countess Meera of the Triple Towers Town." Then he turned, bowed slightly, and said in an earnest tone, "Lord KoKo Cha, please forgive my bluntness. But I really need a better offer." And he walked out of the hall along with Bobby and Layla.
Butler Kurr walked them to the gate of the palace. Then he quickly rushed inside and knelt in front of the enraged KoKo Cha. "Milord, I'm at your service."
KoKo Cha picked up the wine bottle and tossed it on the ground and said, "That bastard has the nerve to walk out like that. Kurr sent someone good to follow them secretly. After they reached the land, I'll kill him and snatch the two slaves. No one can snatch something that I've already had my eyes on.".....
