TOP SECRET: Adventures in the Dark Continent

Chapter 133: I'm curious about your age

Tessa and her mother were lucky to still be alive, even though their lives are tough within the slave market.

"Was your family from that city?" Liu Yang wanted to find out more about these conflicts between noble families. He knows that there will always be groups in conflict with each other.

"Yes. My family was a noble family in the south of the city. The family was not very influential and powerful like the others, but it was strong locally. Unfortunately, the power struggle ended in the worst possible way for us" Tessa was just a small child when it happened, but she still remembers about that.

"Tessa, you don't have to worry about that anymore. What happened in the past is over and what you will do from today is what matters" Liu Yang comforted the little girl.

"Yes, young master. Young master, will you make me sleep like a woman before? " Tessa asked. She heard some things about Liu Yang's conversation with the two beasts.

"Did you hear the things I said?" Liu Yang knows that this was impossible.

What Tessa heard was something else.

"I just heard what the two beasts said. They say something about sleep magic or illusory" Tessa commented vaguely.

As Liu Yang and Lisette were inside the room, she could only hear a few things from the roar of the beasts. That was her skill, Language of the Beasts.

Language of the Beasts (Passive) (Level Max) - Allows the user to understand what the beasts say from their sounds. Unique level of skill.

This skill was interesting, but as Tessa was just a child. There were not many people willing to buy her, as she still needs to grow and be trained. This would take several years.

Several years were a long time and many did not have the patience to wait for all this. It was easier to buy an adult slave and stronger with the same skills as Tessa. Furthermore, if that slave is an adult woman, she would be of more use than a child.

"I see ..." Liu Yang was interested in Tessa's skill and he wanted to find out more about it.

As he couldn't spend much time with her inside the slave market. Liu Yang could only buy her, but there was a small problem.

Tessa's mother, Tessa asked Liu Yang to buy her mother too, as she didn't want to be separated. Tessa's mother was scared when she found out that her daughter was going to be bought, she pleaded to Liu Yang for him to take her along.

The only relative she had was her precious daughter, if Tessa is taken away, she would not know what to do. Besides, she didn't know Liu Yang and doesn't know what his personality was like.

If Liu Yang were some pervert who likes little girls, Tessa would live a hell worse than being a slave in the slave market. She could be tortured and raped every day.

Liu Yang agreed to buy the mother and daughter pair, after much insistence from the two. But it was just the two of them, and none other. He had already bought the two slaves he was looking for.

Tessa was chosen because Liu Yang was curious about her ability, while her mother was taken along due to the pair's insistence.

"Yes. I will do this." Liu Yang did not deny it.

As Tessa already knows about this, he didn't need to lie.

"Young master, you can do this. I know that the young master will not hurt me "Tessa lay on the bed and closed her eyes. She looked like a cute doll.

"When you wake up in a few hours, dinner will be served"

"Thank you, young master. Young master, that food was the best thing I've ever eaten in my life." Tessa spoke with her eyes closed. She showed a beautiful pure smile when she commented.

A child's sincere smile was the most beautiful thing to see.

"Sleep well" Liu Yang touched his ring and two beasts were released.

They used their skills again and Tessa fell into a deep sleep. Liu Yang covered her body with the sheet and left the room.

Outside

Tessa's mother was very concerned about her precious daughter. She doesn't know if Liu Yang had done something to her or not.

The time that passed after the pair entered the room was less than half an hour, but that was enough for her to worry a lot about Tessa.

"Young master, my daughter... She ..." Tessa's mother ran over to Liu Yang and asked him about Tessa. She looked into the room to see her daughter, but as Tessa was sleeping, she didn't know what happened.

"Ciera, you don't have to worry about her. Tessa is just sleeping, she is a little tired. I didn't do anything to her"

Ciera was the name of Tessa's mother. She was a thin woman because of little food, if not for that, she would be a beautiful woman with an exquisite and beautiful body. Her appearance appeared to be 29 or 30 years old, but Liu Yang did not believe it.

Her current appearance was not true, Ciera was that way because of the lack of health care. If she recovers, her beauty will gradually return.

"..." Ciera sighed with relief after hearing those words. The weight on her heart has been released.

"Can you come with me a little?" Liu Yang walked to the next room.

"Yes, young master" The pair entered the other room.

The two women in the corners of the room realized that Liu Yang was going to talk to each of them in private. This looked like a kind of casting couch.

Inside the room ...

Liu Yang and Ciera were sitting on the chairs, between them there was a table with some snacks.

"Young master, what can I do for you?" Ciera understood that Liu Yang asked her to talk.

"I am curious about your age. Tessa seems to be about eleven or twelve, but you seem to be about thirty." Liu Yang asked curiously.

The appearance of ordinary slaves was older than their real age. This is because of their lack of food and health care. Slave sellers would not waste money on slaves who would not make much profit.

Only the slaves who can earn more money receive the best treatment. In the case of men, they are given more food and good sleeping accommodation.

Women were a little better, especially virgin women. They had the best food, clothing, and accommodations. They need to maintain their beautiful and healthy appearance to be sold more quickly.

That was the big difference between slaves. A small part had the best things while the other large part had almost nothing.
