Ladael Sh'Lael Slave Auction House

The Ladael Sh'Lael Slave Auction House (라드엘 슈 라엘 노예 경매장, RR: Radeuel Syu Rael noye gyeongmaejang, MR: Radŭel Syu Rael noye kyŏngmaejang) was a slave auction house in the Karsearin: Adventures of a Red Dragon.

It's located in Lael of the Karsel Kingdom, Six Nations Alliance of Heid.

Information[]

Slavery was forbidden in the Gaianes Empire but it was legal in the Six Nations Alliance of Heid. In particular, the port city of Lael has one of the biggest slave auction houses in the Karsel Kingdom. ^[1] In particular, the trading city of Lael is famous as a center for slave trading. Due to its location as a trading city, people from various places come here, and the slave trade is well supported within Lael. Therefore, this was a huge slave auction house competing for first place on the continent. There is a popular place because it catered to the tastes of customers by offering a list of various pseudo-humans, including humans, elves, beast humans, and demi-humans. Because they sold slaves after making sure they were sold, their credibility was high. Originally, slaves consisted of family members of rebels, debtors who were unable to repay their debts, and people who committed crimes. And the chances of people of pseudo-humans becoming criminals or rebels are extremely small. However, if there is demand, there is supply. There is no law that customers necessarily want only humans, and the current situation is that pseudo-humans are more popular than humans. When it comes to slaves used as maids or playthings, elves and fairies are more advantageous than human women because they have a longer lifespan and their beauty does not fade. Slaves who use strength also have many pseudo-humans that have stronger physical strength than humans. To put it mildly, is there even a joke among mercenaries that says, 'Elves are a race born to be used as bedding (?)' However, unlike the Empire, there are almost no pseudo-humans living in the Heid Six Nations Alliance. Occasionally, pseudo-humans brought from the continent band together and secretly create villages, but there are very few races that originally lived there. Therefore, in the Six Nations Alliance of Heid, the treatment of pseudo-humans was harsh. They are unconditionally legally slaves. There is quite a bit of diplomatic friction with the Gaianes Empire, which considers pseudo-humans as citizens, but war is not breaking out because there are so many entities blocking both the land and sea routes. The land route is the Ancient Red Dragon Karstein. The sea is Blue Worm Archiad. However, unlike the violent Karstein, Archiad is a member of the gentle Blue Dragon clan. As long as they didn't make a fuss due to war, etc., humans were allowed to cross their territory by ships, so trade through sea routes was prevalent. In other words, war can't occur. However, since trade is possible, slaves of pseudo-humans can be purchased secretly. For this reason, this place was enjoying prosperity even today. ^[2] Moreover, there are many customers of Karsel's slave auction house among the Imperial officials, so they're not putting much pressure on them diplomatically. ^[3]

Where Arin is confined, food is served on time. Get to sleep well and on time. They don't ask you to do anything particularly harsh. Sometimes, all he had to do was take Arin to a small room and have him massage a naked human. It was an act called 'massage', and in Arin's opinion, it was probably an operation to tenderize the meat. It was clear that he was only massaging middle-aged men who had particularly big bellies. From a dragon's perspective, he was a human with a sufficiently soft flesh. If the slaves do this obediently, the slave trainers consider them to have learned the right thing. They don't want their products to be damaged, so they punish them gently, take care of their health, and feed them well. Moreover, such slaves can sit blankly on the railing in the backyard of the auction house and watch other slaves being mistreated. If they give good massage to pot-bellied middle-aged men, there will be quite a bit of time left until dinner. Some slaves who work are whipped in the backyard. But that's from Arin's point of view, and ordinary slaves think that even if they don't adapt to this kind of life, it will be difficult later on and their pride will be hurt, but they have no choice but to do as they are told. ^[4]

A slave auction day held once every seven days. At this time, the building filled with intense heat. ^[4]

As the continent's largest auction house, it spared no effort in investing in facilities and securing products for the convenience of its customers. In addition to having a variety of breeds, we also have a system where customers can conveniently purchase slaves that suit their tastes, such as elf rooms, pretty girl rooms, and pretty boy rooms. In addition, for those who especially like young pretty boys, they even show great care in separating the auction locations for feminine pretty boy mania and androgynous pretty boy mania! Thanks to this, the small auditorium located on the 3rd floor of the building, [Only Men's Flower Garden] for feminine pretty boy enthusiasts, is also heating up. ^[4]

The owner of here was Dagpa. ^[5]

History[]

Season 1[]

In 304 AC, at here in Lael, Karsel Kingdom of the Six Nations Alliance of Heid, at the night, Carsan and Arin go here. Arin asked where they are going right now. Carsan answers that to the auction house. Arin said what's auction house. Carsan said he bought him form Rake, but his family's not wealthy enough to keep a slave around, he looks healthy and has a pretty face, he should be able to sell him for at least 1,000 Gold. Arin thought what's he talking about, what 1,000 Gold, well, he called him pretty, that's a compliment, right. After walking along for a while, he saw a large building. It was a five-story building as big as Arin's main body. Arin said wow, what a huge building. Carsan said let's go. The building was here. ^[6]

Carsan held a jingling bag and laughing happily and said haha, that's quite a generous amount, good luck, kiddo. Arin held the iron bars with his hands and said huuuh, what in the world was going on, he can't act recklessly when he has got no idea what's happening, well, mom said to let sleeping dogs lie. Arin sighs and said geez, if Rake was here, he'd explain what's up. The black-haired boy and the brown-haired boy approximately 17 years old, who appeared to be about 1 or 2 years older than Arin come to him. The brown-haird boy who was looking at Arin quietly opened his mouth. He said huh, he was wondering why they put a girl here, but upon closer inspection, it's a boy. Arin surprised and shouted who they are two. The black-haired boy said to Arin that calm down, they're in the same boat as him. The brown-haired boy said looked like he has been conned by some awful people. Arin thought som other humans have arrived here before him, they look to be around the same age as his human body, so he will be staying here with them. Arin thought if he behave like these humans, he should be okay. The black-haired boy asks to Arin that so, how long has it been for him. Arin answered uh, how long, he mean his age, he's 300 years, he means, Rake said he should be around 20 years old. The brown-haired boy asks to Arin that huh, he meant, how long he have living as a slave, or it was his first time. Arin said uh, well, he doesn't know anything, Rake said he has amnesia. The black-haird boy and the brown-haird boy surprised and shouted he has amnesia. Arin smiles. One of the two slaves asks Arin that he does even know what a slave is. Arin answered uh, nope. One of the two boys asks Arin that then he does know what this place is. Arin answered nope. One of the two boys asks Arin that any idea why he got sold off. Arin answered nope. The black-haired boy asks to Arin that just what he does know then. Arin answered um, nothing. Two boys surprised. The black-haired boy sighs and said what a weirdo. The brown-haired boy said to Arin that well then, if he has any questions, ask away, they'll tell him what they know. So about an hour later. Through their conversation, he was able to learn a lot about the human world. He learned about the shiny objects called money, how one Gold was worth 100 Gilds, one Gild was worth 100 Sild, and so on. He also learned about slavery, nations, cities, and such... After gathering his thoughts for a while, Arin finally realized what his situation was. Arin shouted in anger that hold on, that does mean Rake sold him. The black-haird boy asks to Arin that he has finally realized that he has been conned. The brown-haired boy said how naive, he must've looked after him with the intention of selling him from the beginning. Arin thought Rake, he bastard, so he weren't a kind human. One of the two boys asks Arin that he was okay. One of the two boys asks Arin that he must be shocked. Arin begins to clench his fists and thought what should does he now, shuld he jsut transform back into a dragon and blow all of them away, no, if he did that, he'd be grounded for at least 400 years, he might not be able to see the human would again if he transform back. The black-haired boy said to the brown-haired boy that he can't trust anyone these days. The brown-haired boy said he must be shocked. He stretched and said well, it's no use thinking about it now. The brown haired boy said at this point, let's just hope they can get sold to a good place. They cover themselves with blankets. The black-haired boy said phew, he's tired, how long they have been chatting. The brown-haired boy said let's go to sleep, come on, newbie. Arin thought for now, he'll just does what they say, once he get sold as a sllave, he'll be dragged away somewhere. Arin holds the blanket with his hands and thought once he's there, he'll find a quiet place and transform back into a dragon. Arin lies down and thought after that, he'll kill everyone who was involved in buying him, come back as a human again, greatm his plan was perfect. One week after Arin was sold. The day of the slave auction. This huge building, which was comparable to the castle of an ordinary lord, was filled with blazing heat. Today was the day of the slave auction held once every seven days. The host shouted now, time for today's grand finale, he present to him a 20-year-old young man with fluttering hair the color of red flames and cute eyes with a wondrous beauty. The rhetoric was very extravagant. Arin, who was waiting behind the stage, revealed his curiosity. Arin thought wow, who're they talking about, he wanna see him too. At time time, Arin surprised and said oh, wait, it was him. Eyes poured in from all directions. Arin said why's everyone so excited, humans are so hard to understand. Someone shouted 2,000 Gold. As a highlight, the auction price starts at 2,000 Gold. Someone shouted 2,500 Gold. Someone shouted 3,000 Gold. Because price was price, most competitors were eliminated in the early stages. Only one middle-aged man wearing a flashy primary color vest and a man with a sun-sounding voice wearing a jet-black cape wrapped around his head remain, continuing to raise the auction price. The guy with the flashy vest shouted 5,000 Gold over here. The man covered in something like a blanket shouted in a low, hoarse voice that he'll pay 5,500. The guy with the flashy vest shouted gah, then he'll offer 5,800. The cape guy shouted 6,000 Gold. Someone said good, good, they're on fire. Arin thought he's bored, he doesn't care who buys him, just get this over with. Someone shouted in a deep yet pleasant voice that 10,000 Gold, he'll pay 10,000 Gold. Arin surprised. People say that no way, 10,000, they've got a bid for 10,000 gold, who it was. The guy with the flashy vest surprised. The cape guy shouted that's Darios, the first knight of Karsel. Darios walked towards Arin, who was standing blankly. Arin thought huh, what, that did silver human buy him. Words came out from all directions. Someone shouted Darios, Someone shouted the Silver Knight, Darios. Someone shouted Darios fon Goldbruf. Someone shouted he can't believe he's seeing a Dragon Slayer in person. Someone said but why was the famous Silver Knight here. Someone said could it be Darios swings that way. Embarrassed, Darios looked around. Someone said who know. Darios thought they seem to be gravely mistaken, but it'll only complicate things to try and explain himself here, let's just get this over with and leave. Darios shouted to the crowd again. Darios shouted anyone was else offering a bid, if not, they will acknowledge his ownership. Eyes were falling from all directions. Darios gave money to the host and said here it was, 10,000 Gold. Darios said to Arin that from now on, he was his master, he should follow him. ^[1]

Season 3[]

However, even in this chaotic situation, even in this hell where darkness fell over their heads and thick volcanic ash poured down like a torrential downpour, there were those who persistently pursued greed. Like Carsan, who carefully walked to the treasure house of here, a magnificent five-story building that was now half-collapsed and once famous as the largest slave auction house in Karsel. Carsan said if he just dig this up... Carsan looked at the pile of rocks blocking the warehouse door. Fortunately or unfortunately, the warehouse itself was barely damaged. Only small rocks were blocking the warehouse door. Carsan said ...the treasure is his, hehehe. Carsan was buried in the ashes and sweated black sweat continuously. Eventually, Carsan was able to make a small hole that could fit his body. Carsan laughed and searched his pockets. A small, shiny, and exquisite golden key was in Carsan's hand. Carsan thought this should be enough, think of it as a severance pay, old man, this is the price for exploiting him all this time. Carsan fitted the key into the keyhole and turned it with all his might. Carsan thought of Dagpa, the owner of here who had his head smashed by his hand after not telling him where the key was until the end. The key turned smoothly. The door opened right away. A deep smile formed on Carsan's lips. All kinds of gold coins, jewels, and other valuables that filled the warehouse were dazzling Carsan's eyes. Carsan laughed hehehehe. Carsan hurriedly took out his bag and filled it with whatever valuables he could get his hands on. With this treasure, Carsan could live a life of luxury wherever he went! However, Carsan did not know. The anecdotes of those who died in pursuit of greed in disasters were not necessarily stories made up only for the sake of promoting good and punishing evil. They were stories closer to the truth than lessons. Carsan asked huh, what this is. Carsan suddenly raised his head. The sound of something cutting through the wind was eerily clear in Carsan's ears. Cecil, who had turned 16 this year and was a popular item at here, was urging his feet to move through the thick black snow. Shine wasn't originally sickly, but rather, he had been made sickly in here to suit the tastes of some nobles. Shine looked into the darkness and muttered quietly. Shine said the warehouse door is open. Cecil turned his gaze and looked where Shine was pointing. And then, in a moment, they were caught up in a conflict. It was a treasure trove where all the jewels and gold coins earned by here were stored. Until just a moment ago, Cecil had only prioritized survival, but in that moment, the two letters "greed" began to appear in his head. Shine asked what they should do. Shine asked quietly, and Cecil just stared at the warehouse in silence. After a moment, Cecil shook his head. Cecil answered there's no time for that. Shine laughed. Shine said he knew Cecil had answer like that. They turned away without any regrets. That was when a long, loud noise echoed behind their heads. WHEEEEEEEEING! KWAAH! The two turned their heads in surprise. The hot volcanic bomb had hit the warehouse and caused a huge explosion. The two looked at each other. For some reason, no words came out. Cecil thought if they had gone in... Shine thought he would have just died... At that moment, it felt like someone had screamed from the warehouse, but Cecil quickly shook the thought away. ^[5]

Appearance[]

It's a five-story building as big as Arin's main body. ^[2] It was about the size of an average lord's castle. ^[4]

Inside, there were high-quality carpets and colorful paintings on every wall. ^[3]

There were some rooms. These rooms were contained lamps and iron doors. Outside the iron doors, guards standed guard as a prison guard. If slaves make noise, such as banging on iron doors, the guards take them away and beat them. It's an unwritten rule at the slave auction house that precious goods must not be damaged. Although it may seem like a harsh beating on the outside the iron gate, slave trainers secretly select only the parts of the body that will not be damaged and beat them. Because of this, their bodies will feel better after some time. ^[4]

In the rooms, there were lamps, and small flame burning on its wick barely gives enough light to perceive things. ^[4]
