The Borrowed: Aerium's Breeze

(4) Fourth objective, The dream he denies - phase 1.2

Spawnhall city
Eastern district

Based on the map from Miss Emily,
It should be here, the reliable Slave Merchant.

Rather than other shops, i guess this is the place. Verda's Relation store.

It's explicit indeed.
Come to think of it, today i had many detour around the city, huh.

South, North, Central, East.
Almost every side of the city i've visited.

After all of current plans are accomplished, i'll go straight to the bed.

*Tok tok tok* (Yuki)
"Please come in." (???)

*Krieeek* the door sound like an old hut's door that used since long ago.

"Pardon me, is it really a slave merchant?" Yuki takes a peek inside.

"Oh, How bold of you, Mister. Of course we are, please close the door~."

*Baam* (Closed door)
[Before Yuki can identify the person who answered, he immediately shuts the door. Since it's still a taboo despite its legality.]

"Ah, sorry. Is it wrong saying that?"
"Not exactly, though we use a code to phrase it usually."

"Pardon me, i'm new about it."
"Oh, your first time? I'm honored for your choice, sir. For I am Verda Delmount as the owner of this humble store. At your service."

[Yuki finally can identify the owner, he has a quite elegant manner with his dark-gray hair and gentle vibe. Though it doesn't impress Yuki at all.]

".....yeah.."

[The owner is staggered by the plain response from Yuki.]

"ehehe...So what's on your mind, sir?
Any spesific criterias you look for?"

"Can i see your list? I may decide while looking at them."

"Hmm certainly sir, this way."

[Then for a moment, Yuki's led to other room through a suspicious creepy corridor.]
-------------------------------------

Guest hall,
Verda's Relation store

It's a long dark corridor, i already set my battle stance if something's happened.

Now we're in a hall that looks like a secret meeting place. It's either bright nor dim.

"Please sit anywhere, sir. I'll call them for a moment. Sazha, please."

"Yes, sir. Right away."

Hmm?! She's here out of thin air.
Since when?

"Oh my, do you interest in our Sazha? Hm?"
"N-no, sir. I just wonder how skillful her stealth ability."

"Hmm you have good eyes, sir."

i think i should be wary of this merchant.
He's not a simple greedy merchant.

"Alright while waiting for them, why not we talk about our life more open, sir?
We may get closer, you know."

"I see no problem. What are we talking about?"

"Can i know your job, sir? I should assure my subject's future life..."

"My job is adventurer, i plan to get S-rank in the near future. When i earn enough, i may need your service again, sir. I need some servants to maintain my house."

"My, my it's a bit too rush in the bush, sir. But i'll look forward to our future contract."

"So how do you become Slave trader, sir?"
