Chapter 661: Captured on Purpose

Finally, the circus started its show tonight. And as expected there were less people in the audience than usual. In fact, there are too many open seats.

And surprisingly, the lord of this city is also here. Along with some of the female slaves he brought here. I bet they didn’t pay for the ticket.

As a professional entertainers, we didn’t hold back at all in our performances. And we managed to get the audience, no matter how few they are, to laugh. Including the lord of the city. Though I’d like to kill him right now.

The women he brought with him looked nervous the whole time. I guess they’re all acting to not get the lord sees them in a bad mood or they will get punished.

...Oh, s.h.i.+t. Some of the women are pregnant. d.a.m.n it. They will be born fatherless. At least I hope their mother can raise them properly. Or if they can’t, the children will enter a good orphanage at least.

Do they know that they’re pregnant? Maybe some of them do. But they endured their hatred or they will die getting their head decapitated by those slave collars.

The slave collars they wore are not seen openly. They are being covered by scarf or other clothing accessories. Though I can see them just fine.

.....

No matter how angry I am, during the show, I must not show it. I have to bring the best of my performance as always and make everyone laugh. Even if it’s just for a few seconds, those who were enslaved or have their beloved captured can laugh.

I wonder what the lord is doing. Why is he doing all of this? Why slavery? Why bribes? Just how much money does he need? How much slaves does he want until he is satisfied?

The answer? I won’t care. He’s a bad guy. Let’s kill him.

Though until we can find all the answer, we need to continue our act. I hope our plan will go smoothly.

The show is over. And everyone left the seat except for the lord and his harem of slaves. Even when we left the stage and enter the backstage, he was still there. Though there are some people entering the tent without paying the ticket after the show is over.

“Oh, seems like it’s getting interesting. The lord is waiting in his seat. He’s probably trying to scout some people from the circus and turn them into slaves.”

That’s what I’m thinking when I’m looking at the lord. And my guess is probably not wrong.

“Really? Don’t tell me that he forced the circus to pay so much so we won’t make enough for the show and he will come here to ask Thomas to sell some members to him. I guess that’s not entirely impossible. If so, we don’t need to get Thomas to pretend to get drunk at a bar. Roy, tell us if he’s making his move,” Burnes said.

Thomas who heard it then prepared his line. It’s like we’re in a show after a show. But this time, Thomas is the most important actor. He needs to convince the lord that he will sell some of us.

So, the people who will be sold are me, one of the strongmen from Consenza, another clown from Varadis, and Burnes who will be the representative from Tatrama. There won’t be anyone from Arturo because there’s only one of them here and he will stay with Thomas. Protecting him while acting as his a.s.sistant.

Though I already had Spot protecting him. Thomas is safe.

“Oh, the lord is making his move. Anyway, do you know his name?” I asked Burnes.

“I’ll only tell you only this once and I think you will forget it. His name is Randy,” Burnes said.

“I see. I”ll call him Corrupt Lord instead,” I said.

“See? You don’t even care about his name,” Burnes said.

He’s someone who will die soon. Why should I care?

Soon after, Corrupt Lord came to the backstage along with the men who have just entered after the show is over. I guess it’s for intimidation.

“That was an amazing performance! Especially that clown Clarence. I like him! Tommy, I have something I want to talk with you. Get everyone leave the tent,” Corrupt Lord said in commanding tone.

Just because he’s going to talk with Thomas, he’ll leave us out? Well, I don’t mind. But that’s extremely disrespectful of him to not remember Thomas’ name.

...What? I can always hate other people but I don’t want to hate myself.

We were then left the tent while Thomas and the lord are discussing something. Though the lord’s men were still there. And also the agent from Arturo since he’s acting as Thomas’ personal a.s.sistant.

“What do you think, Roy?” Burnes asked me as we’re preparing to do the cleanup after the show.

“Depend on how good Thomas is at negotiating, he could sell four of us. Don’t worry about him. He’s always good at it. That’s also the reason why he’s the leader of the circus,” I said confidently.

I’m sure that Thomas can sell us with high price. Though the price doesn’t matter here. And even if he sells more than four of us to the lord, it doesn’t matter to us.

I used my enhanced hearing to eavesdrop. But it’s difficult since Corrupt Lord’s men are noisy talking about something.

But I can hear Thomas saying something about expensive, cheaply, after midnight, and kidnap.

“Burnes, I can’t hear everything. But from what I got, I think they will kidnap us after midnight. Let’s pretend that we’re sleeping. Maybe they will try to drug us. Don’t drink or eat anything given by Thomas after this. Just pretend to do so. If you’re hungry, I’ll give you some breads to eat right now,” I said as I opened a portal back to Ca.s.sau and grabbed some breads from my house for everyone.

Soon after, Corrupt Lord left. And when we asked Thomas about what they were discussing, he didn’t say anything. Must be because of that guy who is hiding under the desk. Did he think I can’t see him?

Though why would someone hide under the desk? It’s good place for hiding only for kids who are playing hide and seek.

Thomas didn’t say anything except for us to continue cleaning the tent. Though he pointed at the people who will get captured. And when no one is talking, he whispered in low voice about how they will return after midnight when everyone is sleeping and capture us.

When we return in doing the cleanup again, I told everyone what Thomas was whispering.

“I was right. They will come at night and kidnap us. And the people who will get kidnapped is the same. But maybe the kidnappers have another idea when they come, so be careful. The others who won’t get captured need to be careful as well,” I warned everyone to be careful.

After cleaning the tent, we went to sleep. We’re sleeping in the tents that we set up. And obviously, all of us who will get captured sleep in the same tent. As for the rest, they will be in another tent.

As a celebration for the performance, Thomas gave us a few bottles of liquor. And they were drugged with sleeping drug. Thomas whispered that.

So I emptied the bottle and swapped it with a real non-drugged alcohol and we partied until we pretend to sleep. The kidnapper will think their plan is working when they arrive.

Late at night, after we’re all pretending to be asleep, someone entered our tent. And we got tied with a rope and had a collar wrapped around our neck. The slave collars.

Though before they wrapped the collars around our neck, I used confusion gas to make them confused. They didn’t notice that the other three except for me already had Blobbie around their neck to protect them from the needles coming out of the collar. Those Blobbies can be transformed into a key to unlock the collars.

After protecting their neck, I stopped my magic and the confused kidnapper still confused. I wonder what he was confused about. But when he saw us with collars tightly wrapped around our neck, he didn’t think much of it and get others to help him bring us somewhere.

We were then brought into the slum. The bas.e.m.e.nt of the small building that led to the place where they auctioned the slaves.

We were thrown into a jail cell where there are other people there as well. All of them are slaves.

“Burnes? f.u.c.k. We’re doomed.”

Huh? I can hear someone whispered something. He’s another slave with slave collar on his neck. And he knows Burnes. I guess he’s an agent. We can learn a lot from him.

I guess we won’t be sold right away. So I’ll just sleep tonight. When I wake up, Burnes should have learnt a lot from his friend here.
