Upon arrival outside the slavery yard
The owner of the slave seller immediately bowed respectfully to the buyer of the boy. He even respected him well and asked the other slave guards to welcome him warmly.
Seen a man with a complete with a sword weapon tucked beside his body standing straight.
"Thank you for working with me Knight Leorin Harleys!"
The owner of the slave seller bent his knees to the messenger of the royal palace who was willing to buy 2 slaves in his place.
"Alright, let some of the slaves I chose to follow the palace!"
Leorin not only chose a boy named Mercury.
But many slaves were seen to have hidden power for him to buy according to Queen Victoria's orders.
Because the feasibility test enters the magic academy will start soon. So the slaves, especially the poor children, had the opportunity to take magic.
However, there are certain conditions, a feasibility test is held as a form of whether they have great potential to use their magic.
"How many slaves did you have collected the old man?"
Leorin asked, staring at the slaves neatly lined up with different faces.
"About 15 slaves, they are poor children from the slave to be worth!"
The owner of the slave seller explained.
They are still young who are teenagers and still children, they are sons and daughters of previous slaves who were bought or dead.
Then the slaves will not be able to rebel because of the special blood seal. If they run away, they run away or rebel, their bodies will be destroyed.
"Whusssh!
Leorin threw a bag of gold coins towards the owner of the slave seller.
"Hap!
The owner of the slave seller quickly caught him and looked down respectfully.
Gold coin?
That is the highest buying and selling device in this kingdom, there are silver coins and bronze coins whose numbers are still under gold coins.
So anyone who gets a gold coin, they are very happy because they consider gold coins as rare treasures.
"What's your name, boy?"
Leorin approached one of the quiet children with his blank stare.
"Raksa Lozarthat!"
Raksa answered not having enthusiasm because he felt that the test in question would certainly thwart other slaves including him.
"A good name friend ...
"Stop it gloomy because you and your friends will be able to have the opportunity to study magic!"
Leorin patted Raksa's shoulder giving him a word of enthusiasm to find his new way of life.
As a Knight of the Kingdom of Elestia. Leorin was accustomed to taking part in the battlefield or resolving the internal problems of the kingdom.
Including recruiting young slaves to take the feasibility test, because Zrenlyt's magic academy has a war to accept students from the common people and a slave.
"Magic science? What is that?"
Raksa was curious about what magic was like.
He had heard the story accidentally from one of the books he had read. If magic is the spiritual power of the elements of its users.
Raksa really wanted to see the shape of magic directly with his own eyes.
"You will know for yourself the mercury ...
"We don't have much time, follow me to the royal palace!"
Leorin asked other soldiers to bring the slave children he had bought.
Now the status of mercury and other children is no longer a slave. But the ordinary people, however if someone buys slaves, their status must be replaced.
Like the rules of the e -kingdom, slaves can become ordinary people if someone bought it. Instead a common people can become nobles if they have a relationship with nobles.
Although the possibility is small because the nobles are not allowed to establish relations with the common people.
The mercury along the other ride a horse -drawn carriage leading to the palace.
"Hey what's your name?"
Across the seat of a boy with a slightly long black hair asking the mercury.
"I'm Mercury Lozarthat, you can call me mercury!"
Kindly but without the expression of Raksa introducing himself.
"If I'm Shine Windresy, just call me Shine!"
Raksa and Shine met each other and not long ago they became close friends.
"What do you think might be a boy like we can survive the tests said by Uncle Knight?"
Shine hesitantly said and was sure if they would die in the middle of the exam.
Moreover, they are just a weak boy who has no talent in fighting. Then death is the first thing to wait for them later.
Raksa sat quietly and then said.
"You don't need to think about your fear because we will be together fighting so we can enter the magic academy ...
"Besides, if I die then it doesn't matter because I'm too tired to live in a state like this!"
Storm is better to die than to become a royal nobleman.
Although his current status is no longer a lowly slave. However, Raksa chose to walk on his own road, he was not afraid of death.
"You're right mercury, we better die than to be a joke for the ruling aristocrats!"
Shine nodded in understanding hearing the mercury's determination.
Although the two of them are still too weak in the magic world. But with a strong determination, they will not give up so easily.
Living in a state of weakness is too torturing yourself and will only be underestimated by many people.
Therefore, a strong determination must be owned even though it does not guarantee whether it is still alive or not when the exam day arrives.
