The Rising Of The Mage

Chapter 5's

Next will be the third viewpoint

Yudi looked at the creature confined within the iron bars, he was wearing unworthy clothes and his face looked down blankly.

"What is Hobgoblin?"

"Your eyes are so observant, this is one of the monsters we got lost."

"Monsters like Goblins, there's no way to get lost. They'll never leave their lair, can I assume you attacked them?"

An indentation appeared on the seller's face, not expecting his words to be unreliable. However, what Yudi said, did not seem wrong. Because the seller explained.

"Looks like you know so well about them, then I'll explain. They attacked us first. Unfortunately, they ran away and all that remained was him. "

Upon hearing what the seller said, Yudi only smiled bitterly. It was done to cover himself who was already aware of the man's lies.

"How much are you going to sell it, just so you know I'm just starting out on an adventure. So don't have much money!"

"You seriously want to take this thing?"

"Have not much ado, just mention the price?"

The seller rubs his chin, after thinking carefully about the price he thinks it deserves. He immediately spoke without hesitation.

"15 pieces of silver!"

Yudi smiled wryly, it was because the price of that HobGoblin would cost more than half the money he earned. But, as he rethought he became unhesitating.

'I need that monster for my guard, hire him better than a human.'

Although Goblins tend to be fierce, they will be very obedient to their masters. It's because they're stupid and easy to control, as long as you can guarantee their stomachs.

"I accept!"

"Alright then, I'll put a slave seal on him."

As the door opened, Hobgoblin followed the seller's instructions. The monster's move was so lethargic, the slave traders did not give them decent food.

Then Yudi injured his hand, blood dripping into the ink. Then the seller imprinted the slave seal on Hobgoblin.

The monster looked in pain due to the effect of implanting the seal, then a status list appeared in front of Yudi's face.

"I'm Virgo Elchamio as a merchant, ready to receive you whenever you come."

The Virgo merchant slightly bowed, after which the transaction went smoothly. He really did not expect, if the advice given by him would be taken for granted.

It was rare to want to make Goblins into slaves, it was because they were so stupid. The Goblin consists of 2 types, namely ordinary Goblin and Hobgoblin.

The difference between the two is only apparent from the significant body size. But the problem of intelligence, they remain below average.

Hobgoblins only have the desire to fight and eat, therefore they only become guards from ordinary Goblins. That was because, ordinary Goblins had little skill in governing life.

They have the ability to build nests and hunt, then the task of guarding the nest is assigned to Hobgoblin. One of the great creatures, now a slave of Yudi.

"Alright, let's buy the equipment that suits you."

Yudi took his new slave to the supply store, after carefully sorting and choosing. That hobgoblin finally got a set of his armor.

After he finished and was about to head for the forest to hunt, the stomach voice sounded strong. The Hobgoblin who still did not speak, still kept the face so as not to be discovered if it came from him.

"Hah~ if you're hungry, why don't you say. I'm not too telling you. As Master, I must pay attention to my slaves. So, let's find some cheap food, I happen to eat there."

Goobu heard his new Master's remark, although his facial expression remained flat. However, her feelings softened as Yudi said that.

'Will he treat me like they do.'

Life in a slave-selling place, traumatized him by humans. A meal schedule that is only once a day, always gets lashed if the guards are upset.

That kind of thing, made him afraid if the person in front of him. Will treat like those guards.

After arriving at the usual place he ate other than the restaurant, immediately Yudi glanced at his slave.

"Now eat as much, no need to worry that I will bear the cost."

Goobu immediately ate the fruits he saw, the seller named Luin clauses smiled wryly when he saw the Goblin race in front of him. Moreover, that race was a Hobgoblin.

"Oi Yudi, where did you get this thing?"

"I got it from the slave sale, you know for yourself that I decided to become an adventurer."

Luin was the first person in this kingdom that Yudi met, he was also the one who gave food and hope to survive after surviving the wave of destruction.

"So, now you're making him a slave. I think humans are better. But you're making another race slaves."

"Making humans slaves was very risky, even though they were tied to slave seals. It is not impossible for betrayal to continue."

Man if he hates any way will be done, to achieve what he wants. Even they are willing to sacrifice something that is unacceptable common sense.

"Have you lost faith in your own race?"

"It's possible, because when my residence was attacked by creatures from the wave of destruction. Not a single soldier nor a silly hero came to help. So maybe that's why my trust in humans is a little diminished."

Luin could not reply to what Yudi had just said, the reason was simple and simple. It was because he also experienced the same thing with Yudi.

His residence was destroyed by the waves, then he came here to try his luck to become a merchant. Although small but he can survive until now, a thing worth appreciating.

"So, where are you going next?"

"For a while I will be Grinding in this Kingdom until the next wave comes. After that, I'll move somewhere else, have a suggestion."

Luis pinched his chin as the question was heard, his forehead slightly furrowed trying to recall the place he had visited. Then, he turned around and returned with a map.

He opened the map made of animal skin that was tanned to the potluck, even so the image on the map could still be seen and read well.

"Our place is now the Kingdom of Kutai, and on the right there are 3 other kingdoms, namely Sundaland, Bali, and Galuh. On the left are 3 other kingdoms controlled by half-humans. Girisetra, Bayusetra, and Agnisetra. Amongst all the friendliest of course this kingdom. If you want to continue the journey I suggest you come here.

Luuin's finger pointed to a kingdom, which was at number two of the kingdom on the left. And Yudi confirmed what his best friend had pointed to.

"Hm the kingdom of Bayusetra, yes!"
