After an extremely intense inner struggle, Xiao got the answer he wanted most in his heart.

"Xiao, do you have any ideas?"

"Eh! Troublesome aristocracy? Oh, and by the way, Sister Anne, lend me some paper and a pen."

Xiao recalled what he had learned in the thieves' stronghold and smiled wickedly.

"Eh?!"

Although Annie was very confused, she still prepared paper for Xiao.

"The Book of Contract seems to say this, right?"

Xiao muttered and began to write on the paper, which shocked Annie.

"Xiao, you're really weird. You clearly can't understand Louisiana, but you know Ancient Dragon."

Annie asked quietly in Xiao's ear.

"Eh?! Could you please keep this a secret?"

Xiao did not understand the language system of this world. He only knew that the language used to write the contract seemed to be something he learned naturally after learning the skills.

"Don't worry, it's the association's clear policy not to inquire about adventurers' identities."

Anne put her finger on her lips and smiled sweetly.

"Then I'm sorry to trouble you."

Xiao wrote the four contracts and stepped on Bill who had just woken up.

"Mr. Bill, I demand compensation for your rude behavior."

Xiao's voice was so authoritative that it startled everyone.

Everyone felt a heavy sense of oppression because of this young man.

"Huh, what the hell are you talking about, little brat..."

Bill looked at Xiao with disdain.

"Haha, young man, this guy may only have a penny on him, and you still want compensation."

A drunkard nearby came to his senses and laughed.

It is common knowledge in the association that Bill and his group are lazy and eat a lot every day.

They had very little money and it was impossible for them to pay the compensation that Xiao demanded.

"Then there's nothing we can do. Please sign this. Otherwise..."

Xiao just glared at Bill briefly, and he was frightened to the point of incontinence.

"Well, you know..."

Even though his pants were soaked with warm liquid, Bill still tried to struggle.

"Any questions?"

Xiao pulled out the dagger from his waist and threw it at Bill's face.

“No, no.”

Bill's voice was trembling, showing no trace of his previous arrogance.

"Ok."

As Xiao said this, he cut Bill's finger and asked him to sign the contract.

Although Bill was very reluctant, he still pressed his finger on the contract under Xiao's pressure.

He didn't understand the contents of the contract.

But he believed that the boy in front of him would never propose any excessive treaty.

Even though he was an illegitimate child, Bill's father had the title of Viscount.

"Okay, let's go."

Xiao confirmed the four contracts and put the slave collars he found in the thieves' base around the necks of the four people.

"Hey?! You, what are you doing!?"

Bill looked at the collar around his neck in panic.

He had secretly kidnapped many people and knew how terrifying this thing was.

"Mr. Bill, could you please be honest?"

"D-Do you know what you've done?!"

"Could you be a little quieter?"

Xiao felt a little noisy watching Bill cursing and pulling at his collar in vain.

"Ah! Bastard!"

"If you don't behave yourself, you know the consequences, right?"

Xiao squatted in front of Bill and asked with a smile.

"I, I was wrong. Please forgive me..."

"Don't worry, I'll be your master for a while. Sister Annie, are you done with the formalities?"

Xiao stood up and asked Annie with a smile, not even the devilish look he had just shown.

"Hmm, well, there's also a basic ability test..."

Anne replied in a panic.

"Is that so... Then I'll deal with these guys today and come back tomorrow."

"Hey! Okay, okay. See you tomorrow."

After saying goodbye to Annie, Xiao took Bill out of the association as if he were a pet.

Only a group of adventurers were left who couldn't understand the situation before them.

Chapter 6 The Cunning Slave Trader and the Twin Boys

"How could you do this to me! My father is Viscount Gracie!"

When he realized what Akatsuki was planning, Bill panicked.

"That's why I asked you to sign this thing."

Xiao shook the contract in his hand nonchalantly.

"How could something like that possibly be useful?!"

Bill saw hope in an instant.

He believed that if the opponent was a civilian, the contract could be declared invalid at will by bribing the judge.

"Well, how about you break the contract and give it a try?"

Being stared at by Xiao Xie with a smile, Bill felt a chill on his back.

"Even if you threaten me like this, it's useless."

Although he was a playboy, Bill had also heard some rumors.

Some extremely powerful magicians can create contracts with curse effects, cursing the violator.

"It's okay if you think I'm just threatening."

Xiao gave a simple answer and then entered the largest slave shop in the city, Nosti.

"Welcome, what can I do for you?"

A man wearing single-frame gold-rimmed glasses greeted Xiao with a smile.

"Do you buy slaves here?"

"Hey! Are you really going to sell me out?!"

"What else can you do? You have no money. And now, be quiet."

The severe pain caused by the collar made Bill shut his mouth obediently.

"Yes, are these the men you want to sell?"

"That's right. Could you please give me an estimate?"

"Well, 50 gold coins, what do you think of this price?"

The slave trader looked at Bill and his companions, thought for a moment, and then quoted a price.

"Well, that's the price."

Xiao was a little surprised. He didn't expect these guys could be sold at this price.

According to Xiao's understanding, the average annual income of a typical Nosti citizen is only around 20 gold coins.

"Hey! Bastard, are you humiliating me? How could I...ah!"

Bill was obviously very dissatisfied with the slave trader's offer.

"Shut up."

Xiao tapped Bill with the contract, and he immediately felt a sharp pain in his neck.

"If you have this thing, can you give me a higher price?"

Xiao gave a wicked smile and handed over the contract.

"Ancient Dragon Language...it's interesting."

The slave trader pushed his glasses and read the contents of the contract carefully.

Although slave collars are very reliable, there is still a risk of slaves escaping.

If the contract involves magical enforcement, the price of the slave will fluctuate greatly depending on the circumstances.

"60 gold coins, what do you think of this price?"

"80 gold coins, that's the first price you thought of, right?"

"Indeed, I never thought you could possess such a rare skill as mind reading. 80 gold coins."

The slave trader knew that Xiao could see his inner thoughts, so he stopped bothering him.

"Since you can understand ancient dragon language, I don't need to tell you how to use the contract, right?"

"Well, please wait a moment. I'll go prepare the money now."

"Can I take a look here for a moment?"

"That's absolutely fine, please feel free to do as you please. If you need anything, just call me."

Xiao walked around the store and noticed a pair of blond twin boys in the corner.

After checking the two with his identification skills, Xiao laughed.

[I didn't expect that it would be the slave girl's turn so soon.]

Through their skills, Xiao not only discovered that the two were actually beautiful girls, but also that they both had very rare abilities.

"By the way, aren't there a few slaves here? And they're all men."

"Haha, sir, you are also a young man.

I'm very sorry, but all of the Chamber of Commerce's female slaves have been reserved by noble families and cannot be sold to you."

A cunning gleam gleamed beneath the slave trader's spectacles.

"That's a shame. So how much money would you like to reserve for me first?"

The slave trader did not answer directly, but just made a five gesture.

"Well, that's alright. I'll just buy someone to help me today."

Noticing Xiao's gaze on them, the two boys in the cage began to tremble uneasily.

"Oh, does the guest have that kind of fetish?"
