I like traveling the most

"What a terrible color."

"What a terrible view."

Freya and Kobayashi frowned slightly and blurted out at the same time. At the end, the two looked at each other again.

The words were different, but the meaning was the same.

This is a large street extending to the center of the oasis. Looking to the right is the beautiful and peaceful oasis, and looking to the left is the dirty, noisy and pessimistic slave area.

One street, two classes, a world of difference.

If the goddess of purity or justice saw it, she would probably frown and even make a fuss to save the people who asked her for help.

There are many sheds and platforms on the square on the left, specially for buyers to take a closer look at the goods.

Among them, strong men and women with good looks will be placed in conspicuous positions, and both men and women will only wear a gauze. It should be to make it easier for buyers to confirm whether they have scars on their bodies.

Of course, there may be other intentions.

"It's really interesting."

"What?"

The words reached Kobayashi's ears. After coming to his senses, he looked at Freya, only to find that the silver eyes of the goddess of beauty were staring at him.

He turned his head slightly, not daring to look at her.

Freya couldn't help but chuckle: "I mean, this scene is interesting. Just one street makes the two sides of the class different, don't you think it's strange?"

"...Is that so?"

Kobayashi frowned slightly, always feeling that this was not what she really meant.

"Master Kobayashi." Liu Zi, who was accompanying him, suddenly said: "If you put me on the stand, what is the appropriate price? 100 million? 500 million? If you exchange this money for jewelry, Master Aqua and the others won't have to worry about money."

"Liu Zi! No matter what, I will not abandon you, and selling you is even more impossible!"

Kobayashi interrupted Liu Zi forcefully, dispelling her inappropriate thoughts, and also Bofuman with glowing eyes.

He held his forehead with his right hand and sighed.

"Besides, why do you have such an idea?"

"It was Aqua-sama who said so."

"What?"

"Aqua-sama said that if you run out of money, you can sell me and make a lot of money. Anyway, with my ability, I can sneak back at that time. If I am discovered, I can say that I made another one, so I don't have to worry about being reported for fraud."

How wicked is that stupid goddess!

Compared with the goddess of beauty next to her, it is really hard to believe that she is actually a goddess.

"Are you short of money?"

"Well, I guess so."

Freya's question made Xiaolin slightly embarrassed.

Originally, they were not short of money, but the wicked lord made things difficult for them many times, making the team's funds stretched. But even so, he would not sell Liu Zi for money!

Even if it is fake, it won't work!

"Besides, making money is easy for capable people." Xiaolin was slightly stubborn.

For some reason, he didn't want to be looked down upon by Freya. This was probably because of the other party's divinity, which made Xiaolin have an inappropriate desire to show off.

"Oh?" Freya raised her eyebrows slightly.

Kobayashi said calmly and confidently: "For capable people, temporary embarrassment is nothing. As long as there is a suitable opportunity and you seize it, you will definitely soar to the sky!"

He meant something, and the goddess of beauty seemed to be thinking about something.

Bofman suddenly interrupted and said: "Master Kobayashi is right! For capable people, making money is a very simple thing. But if you want to make the most money, that is a big learning. And I am the richest businessman in this desert!"

Bofman, who was also aroused by the desire to show off, naturally did not want to fall into the lower class, so he began to brag.

However, the goddess of beauty ignored him.

"Your eyes are good."

"Not as good as your divine eyes."

Freya and Kobayashi played a riddle.

Both of them were hinting at the specialness of the slave girl. The difference is that the goddess of beauty used her own divine eyes to find the abnormality and used wisdom and brain to reason it out. Kobayashi took a shortcut and used [Five Visions All-Powerful] to cheat and see through what the slave girl was thinking.

Escape, gather the army, fight back, and restore the country.

These are all in her mind.

In this way, it is natural to understand that the identity of the slave girl is not simple.

Not good, not good, not good!

Bofuman secretly thought that it was not good, and the jealousy rising in his heart was forcibly suppressed.

The atmosphere between Xiaolin and Freya was too good, and he was like an outsider. If he didn't do something, he might not even have the meaning of existence. At that time, could he still rely on the other party's power to gain benefits?

Something must be done, must be done!

Bofuman gritted his teeth, stomped his feet, and under the gaze of Freya and Xiaolin, he arrogantly pushed open the door of a certain chamber of commerce and stepped heavily in.

"Hey, Luo Zuo! Come out to greet the guests!"

His tone was very bad, with a high-handed attitude, like a henchman of a bad boy who was trying to intimidate others.

"Oh, isn't this Bofuman?"

A human man walked out of the Chamber of Commerce. He was not fat, had an ordinary appearance, and had two eye-catching mustaches. His clothes were full of jewels, so expensive that all other merchants combined could not beat him.

Based on this alone, it is not difficult to find that this man is better than Bofuman in all aspects.

...Wait!

Didn't you say that you are the richest businessman in this desert?

Bofuman proudly introduced him: "Rozo, this is the famous goddess Freya in the labyrinth city. I advise you not to neglect her!"

"I remember there is a proverb in the Far East - the fox borrows the power of the tiger. It's about you. Your chamber of commerce is so weak that it can't afford the villa on the island. Are you obsessed with the seat of our organization?" Rozo sneered with a smile.

"You are just the weakest of the four kings!" Bofuman stamped his feet in anger.

I understand, one of the richest businessmen.

After humiliating Bofuman, Rozo saluted the goddess of beauty respectfully and greeted: "Lady Freya, welcome to the slave market! My name is Rozo, and I am the manager here. If I neglect you, please forgive my disrespect."

"No problem. But that guy seems a bit annoying."

Freya pointed to a middle-aged man with a big belly and a bad temper not far away.

Luo Zuo chuckled: "I know, Lady Freya, I will send someone to ask him to leave."

With the reputation of Goddess Freya, it is easy to let a nagging guest leave.

Freya ignored his dispute with Bofuman and asked the other person to leave. She also helped him with a trivial favor and conveyed that she did not want to interfere with his and Bofuman's feud.

Luo Zuo was naturally happy.

Afterwards, Freya explained her purpose.

"Among the slaves brought here just now, there is a child who I am very concerned about. Can I meet her?"

"Of course it's no problem! Hey! Bring everyone here!"

Luo Zuo seemed to have already grasped the news that Freya was here before Bofuman reminded him. He did it immediately without saying a word and ordered his subordinates to bring the slaves who had just arrived here.

"What a terrible color."

"What a terrible view."

The two of them murmured unconsciously again.

While the slaves were not called in, they looked around.

The merchants and guests looked radiant, while the slaves all bowed their heads like sinners.

These countless people have lost their glory, their dignity has been completely trampled upon, and the word despair is not only written on their faces, but also deeply engraved in their souls.

Enclosed in themselves, abandoning everything, there is not even a slave seeking salvation, and no one wants to pray to the gods.

→

A suffocating atmosphere.

Kobayashi clenched his fist unconsciously.

"Hehe."

The goddess chuckled again.

The meaningless laughter made Kobayashi quite annoyed, and he didn't understand what the goddess next to him was amused by seeing this. However, in response to his questioning gaze, the goddess of beauty looked more interested.

"?!"

Kobayashi was immediately alert.

He lowered his head and didn't dare to look.

"It feels suffocating, right."

The goddess whispered in his ears, and it sounded like a sigh.

Only Bofuman noticed this at the scene. He was worried that he would displease the goddess, and kept observing Freya's face nervously.

Fortunately, the other party was not angry.

After a while, the slaves came to the sun and stood in a row under the command of the merchant.

Probably because of the long journey, everyone had an exhausted expression on their faces, and the exhausted old people and children seemed to be ready to kneel down at any time.

Only Luo Zuo had a mercenary smile on his face: "Sorry to have kept you waiting! These are the goods you ordered. They were just delivered today. What do you think?"

Freya did not answer, but walked forward with the team.

Xiaolin stood there and looked at her back.

The goddess of beauty ignored any seeking help or obsessed eyes, and confirmed the appearance of the slaves one by one. Then, she finally found the girl before.

The fragrant wind filled her nose, and the slave girl noticed a shadow stopped in front of her.

When she raised her head, she couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.

Freya raised the corners of her mouth and lifted the slave girl's chin with her fingers in a domineering manner, so that she could look at her.

"..." The slave girl remained silent.

"Your name?"

"... Yali."

The slave girl, who could not resist the goddess of beauty, briefly reported her name.

Her voice was like a harp playing in the desert night, crisp, pleasant and beautiful.

Freya narrowed her eyes and was very satisfied with the slave girl.

"Lady Freya?"

"I have decided what to buy."

"Oh! That's great!"

Luo Zuo was very happy to be chosen by the goddess.

It seemed that this would be a pleasant transaction.

The goddess looked around, and everyone was moved by the goddess of beauty's every move and also looked at her.

"So, the goods you want are..."

"Everyone."

Everything seemed to be still as if time had stopped. At this moment, the sound disappeared from the slave market. The only thing that remained unchanged was the scorching sun shining from the sky.

Whether it was the slave girl named Yali or the others around, everyone suspected that they were hallucinating, and stood there stiffly staring at the goddess of beauty.

It was not the result of being captured by the other party's divinity, but the explosive words that made everyone stunned on the spot.

And Luo Zuo, who was stared at by the goddess, barely uttered a weird exclamation:

"——What did you say?!"

"I've already said that not only your current inventory of goods, but also all the children in the market, I want them all!"

Freya threw out this request willfully.

In this slave market where everything is still, the goddess has a beautiful smile on her face. It is the unique smile of the goddess of beauty who will satisfy all her willful and unreasonable demands.

Only children make choices, adults want everything.

And the goddess not only wants these in the store, but also wants others'!

Only then did Xiaolin understand how unreasonable and willful Freya was.

Alas——

I don't know if it was an auditory hallucination, but he heard eight sighs of different voices.

The goddess said loudly: "Such a dirty scene is really unpleasant. In addition, the town is not big, and you can't help but look at it. These slaves are too annoying! You can do whatever you want after I leave, but while I stay, don't let me see these annoying things."

According to her mood, she made requests freely, so she would buy all the slaves.

"Lady, goddess!" Luo Zuo shouted, "Excuse me for being so bold, the price of slaves is not that low. If you want to buy all of them..."

The implication is that Freya may not be able to afford it.

However——

Freya's smile deepened, and she confirmed with the slave trader in front of her.

"Who am I?"

"...You are Goddess Freya."

"Where are my family?"

"...Freya's family."

"What is our title?"

"...The most beautiful and powerful goddess and her family who control all the wealth and fame in the world."

A lot of cold sweat emerged from Luo Zuo's forehead.

So, Freya asked one last time: "Then, I will take all the slaves away?"

"...I will obey the will of the goddess!"

Luo Zuo could only kowtow and obey.

The other merchants standing there were all scared and their faces turned blue after seeing this. They knelt and kowtowed to imitate Luo Zuo's actions, indicating that the entire slave market was willing to submit to the goddess.

The next moment, deafening cheers came from the scene, as if the whole world was cheering for her.

"Oh——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————!"

The volume was so loud that Xiaolin couldn't help but cover his ears.

Some people were jubilant, some cried with joy, and some even knelt down with their hands folded to pray for the goddess. The slaves roared with excitement, shaking the whole city.

Then, the goddess of beauty maintained her usual elegant demeanor and ordered Bofman to pay the money and prepare to transport the slaves.

Bofman twisted his knotted tongue and said, "Lady Freya, where do you want to send them? I'm sorry I'm incompetent, even the properties owned by the Chamber of Commerce can't accommodate so many slaves..."

There were at least hundreds of slaves bought, and he really couldn't arrange them all.

In response, Freya raised a finger instead of answering. After realizing that she was pointing at the island in the oasis, to be precise, the largest mansion on the island, which was deliberately domed and as large as a castle, he immediately had a bad premonition.

"F, Lady Freya, could it be that..."

"I still want to buy that house."

"Lady Freya?!"

Bofman was so frightened that he was stunned as if his jaw was dislocated.

Kobayashi also looked sideways.

This set of operations really has the taste of a domineering empress type of cool article. Although the other party is a goddess, and although the two protagonists are of the same sex, he still can't help looking sideways at Freya.

After all, who can refuse a white-skinned, beautiful, rich and domineering goddess, and she is so charming. So much so that Aqua, who is also a goddess, is completely incomparable with her.

I couldn't help but sigh.

That stupid and wicked goddess, if you don't cause trouble for him, it will be a success. You must not expect any strange thoughts from her that you shouldn't have.

"...Hmm?"

In the sea of ​​​​jubilation of everyone, a gaze fell on him, familiar, eager and a little uncomfortable.

Raising her head, the goddess retracted her gaze.

Freya turned around and walked gracefully to Yali, firmly holding the hand of the girl who had been freed from slavery, and led her to the largest castle in the oasis.

And Xiaolin couldn't help frowning as he watched her swaying back full of temptation.

What did that look mean?
