Chapter 23 Do I Look Like a Stupid?

The boy's clenched fists showed a violent fluctuation in his heart, but the captain of the guard was more concerned about another question. He pulled the boy aside and asked in a low voice, "How much money do you have now?"

"Not three silver coins?" To be honest, the future Super Magician has never had any idea about money. Since he was captured by Stanis and Deman, he has never been worried about money anymore. Everything goes to the academy's accounts. Rob said today that he wanted Longya, and Longya would be placed at the door of his bedroom before dusk tomorrow night. As for how much money it cost, it has nothing to do with the boy. In Steins' words - just do research honestly, don't worry about these mundane things and waste your talents.

So from then on, Rob no longer cared about similar issues. This time, the young man had been planning to escape for a long time, with His Highness the Third Prince receiving the support, and the Dwarf Malay Dona sponsoring the travel expenses. The future Super Magician's future has never suffered from the pain of losing money. Therefore, when facing the debt of twenty-four gold coins, his first reaction was still angry at the man's unreliability.

When Kenneth reminded him, he realized that the twenty-four gold coins he is now is also a huge number.

Of course, it is still easy to make this money with his current strength. In fact, as long as he is willing to show his reputation, countless people will cry and shout to send him money, but in this way, the killers who are entrenched in the secret search for his whereabouts will follow one after another, and the old guy Deman will inevitably move.

This situation is something Rob doesn't want to see anyway.

"Oh, Lisa has always been in charge of me. I only have twenty copper coins left in my pocket. I had known that I wouldn't have been in the tavern. As expected, I should have taken some tips back." The Knight regretted it, "But I still have a secret treasury, which contains the private money I have saved over the years, and it looks like twelve silver coins. I can lend you one first, but if this is the case, it's still a little far from the goal of twenty-four gold coins. Where else can you get the money?"

"I..." Rob was confused. He never expected that one day he would worry about just twenty-four gold coins. This was just the money for a banquet of green back stinging fish, and he didn't even have a fraction of any piece of equipment on his body before.

"What are you muttering over there?" Puppet Zhengta looked at the two men not far away with suspicious eyes. She seemed to have guessed something and quietly blocked the door with her body.

The boy was embarrassed, "I have no money now."

"What?!" Puppet Masao jumped up, "But your father clearly said you are very rich! He sends money home every year, and even sends ten gold coins at one time!"

"Well, I originally planned to use that money to open a bakery." Rob said honestly.

"Oh my God! Why is this happening!!!" Pure Masao let out a sarcastic cry, "That's all my property!"

The boy only felt that his face was burning. For the first time in his life, the future Super Magician was so humble. He used all his strength to squeeze this sentence out of his teeth. "That... can you give me a little a little gratitude for a few days, I will definitely return the money to you."

"Hmph! Do I look like a fool? I have been deceived by your father once, and I will not be fooled again this time. If I promise you, I will definitely regret breaking my heart tomorrow morning." The pseudo-shoot put his hands on his hips, and he looked like you had seen through me. "Sir Kenneth, come and tell me, what if someone owes money and doesn't pay it back according to Ryan's law?"

"Uh..." The captain of the guard hesitated for a moment. On one side was his childhood partner and on the other side was the virtue of the knight. In the end, Kenneth chose to tell the truth. "According to the relevant regulations of Ryan, the Principality of Andera, those who owe money will be confiscated and used to repay the debt. If it still cannot be repaid, the debtor will be deprived of his identity as the person who is free and becomes the private property of the creditor."

"Wait!" Rob was shocked. The so-called creditor's private property means that he will become a slave to the pseudo-superior from now on? I think he is a sixth-level quasi-magic master, and the human race will become a slave to a rookie and brave man in the future. No one will believe such a crazy story if he tells it.

Although the young man lacked common sense, he still had some understanding of the existence of slaves on the Dawn Continent. In addition to the elves, almost all races would keep slaves. Some of these people were prisoners of war, some were indigenous people caught by slave traders from some small villages, prisoners who violated the law, bankrupts like him who could not afford to pay back money, and a small number of people who voluntarily became slaves for various reasons.

Slaves are the private property of slave owners and are not protected by law. In other words, what kind of life can be lived by slave owners depends entirely on the attitude of the slave owner who owns them. Many of the magicians also own slaves. After all, magicians are not omnipotent. They also need someone to serve them and deal with daily trivial matters to manage a huge magic tower.

Of course you can hire professional talents to do these things, but that would be a considerable expense, and buying a slave can save a lot of money, and slaves can do many things that others cannot do, such as participating in some dangerous magic experiments, or sleeping.

Yes, magicians are not saints, nor are they ascetics. Although most magicians get married and have children like ordinary people, a small number of academics think that falling in love is a waste of time. They usually buy one or two young and beautiful female slaves to meet their physiological needs.

Many magicians carve magic circles on the roof of the building during the day and sex downstairs at night. Compared to the emotional investment and careful care required for love, there is no need to pay so much attention to the slaves. Every day, they take off their pants when they meet, and after they are finished, they can leave by patting their butts and raising their legs. They don’t have to take any responsibility, which is the most worry-free and effort-saving.

In fact, many female slaves also hope to meet such a single mage. Compared with the nobles who are cold-blooded, ruthless, romantic, and like to play with women and then throw them away, the mage is still relatively good.

First of all, the work of the magic tower is not heavy, and there are not many perverted magicians who like to conduct dangerous experiments with slaves. Secondly, magicians generally rarely have systematic research on contraception like noble children. Therefore, female slaves often win the bid unexpectedly. Magicians are more open to bloodlines. They usually bring illegitimate children with magic qualifications to train and educate them in person. Even children without talented magicians will find a good home for them, send them to knight school, or ask them to serve as followers for a certain lord, to ensure that they have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives.
