"Fifty taels for one strong, capable young man!"
"Ninety taels for six beautiful maidens!"
"Three hundred taels for this cute girl. She was once a princess!"
Keith heard loud voices ringing in his ears as he slowly woke up to a rather bizarre scene.
The surroundings were dim. Not so dark that one couldn't see around, but not bright enough to resemble the daylight outside.
Around him, he could see many stalls, and in each of them were giant cages with silhouettes of people and creatures inside. People moved back and forth everywhere.
It was exactly like a market.
"Do you want this one?"
Suddenly, someone stopped in front of Keith, blocking his vision as a voice came from behind him while Keith struggled to remain conscious.
"Hmm..."
A soft feminine voice sounded as Keith saw the face of an ordinary woman appear before him.
"Why does he look so thin and weak?" she couldn't help but ask.
The man behind Keith chuckled awkwardly.
"Ah... that... well..."
