NOVEL NEXT Chapter 21: 011
"Damn it, could this really be a coincidence?"
Rod's eyelid twitched.
This woman... could she actually be related to that hero who kicked him out of the party? His sister? Or maybe...?
If not, the resemblance was far too uncanny.
The hero's strikingly handsome features seemed to be a carbon copy of this woman's face.
Rod thought back to the days he spent with the hero.
Over drinks, the hero often talked about his past—how he grew up in a terrible household, and how, through sheer determination, he became the savior of humanity. He boasted about what kind of hero he would become in the future.
According to him, his father was a worthless drunk and gambler, who beat him senseless from a young age. Unable to bear the abuse, he ran away, training himself tirelessly until he finally became a powerful hero.
Of course, Rod never believed that. He figured the hero was no different from his father—just another scumbag. After all, once he had drained people of their wealth, he discarded them like trash.
In essence, they were the same kind of rotten man.
However, Rod didn't remember him ever mentioning a sister. Instead, he often talked about his mother—about how beautiful and gentle she was.
"Thirty gold coins. I'll take this slave!"
A voice interrupted his thoughts. A burly middle-aged man in the crowd pointed at the woman in the cage.
Rod eyed the man with his greasy face, filled with lecherous intent and undisguised cruelty. If this woman ended up in his hands, her future would surely be grim.
"Thirty gold coins? No way, too low." the slave trader shook his head frantically.
"A slave of her quality? Thirty gold coins wouldn't even cover my cost. I bought her from her husband for thirty-five gold coins! I can't go lower than fifty!"
"Look at her! This is a prime female slave! With that figure and face, and a docile temperament to boot. Sure, she's had a child, but with a little effort, she could easily bear another ten or eight children, no problem!"
The slave trader was describing her as though she were livestock.
Curled up in the corner of the cage, the woman couldn't help but feel a deep sense of shame as all those eyes stared at her, their lustful gazes stripping her bare.
She felt like nothing more than a commodity being bought and sold. The thought of her future—reduced to a breeding tool and an outlet for abuse—filled her heart with despair, as though her entire world had turned to gray.
Her eyelids fluttered, a glimmer of tears forming in the corners of her eyes.
Her pitiful appearance did not stir compassion in the crowd. Instead, it only fanned the flames of their desire to tear her apart.
Even Rod couldn't help but sigh inwardly. This woman was the epitome of temptation. Her perfect curves, the mix of docility and charm on her face—no matter how pitiful her expression, it would only ignite a man's desire to conquer her.
"What a rare gem."
The middle-aged man's eyes gleamed as a line of drool slipped from his lips. Imagining this woman's allure in bed made his heart itch with unbearable anticipation.
With a gritted resolve, he shouted, "Fifty gold coins! I'll take her!"
"Deal!" the slave trader immediately grinned with delight.
"Two hundred gold coins, and I'll take both female slaves."
Before the deal could be finalized, a domineering voice rang out from the side.
