Chapter 615 - Do You Really Think So?

Frandin's mouth twitched in response. He would never forget that this was how he got involved in all of this.

"Ahem... Can't we use a more... gentle method?"

Everyone looked at Frandin, puzzled.

"Would there be a Zasfin willing to come along with a bunch of humans like you? First of all, you still hate normal humans, right? You're just tagging along because we aren't from this place, to begin with. We aren't the same as the slaves around you, or so you think."

Frandin didn't deny that. He had no pity or interest in any of the slave humans of the world. Save them? Help them? Unless it was necessary, he had no intention or wish of doing so. To be more specific, Frandin simply didn't care about them at all since they couldn't provide him anything to start with. In this regard, he was quite similar to Roan. 

In Roan's eyes, it's not just the fact that they were slaves. He could also tell that the humans had no intention of fighting against this fate. Since even the human slaves didn't want to do anything, why should he or anyone else help them? Roan had no intention of helping someone who had already given up to start with.

"Well, that's true. I consider you guys differently because you definitely don't think of yourselves as slaves, let alone act like them. I really don't give a damn about the rest. However, we're talking about capturing a Zasfin here, right? They definitely don't think about themselves as slaves either. Are you perhaps trying to get someone with a high bloodline rank? If that's the case, they'll most likely be even more prideful than I was. I came from a remote place, but this city is different. Chances are that they would rather die than accept your orders."

Agis couldn't help but ask.

"Could it be that you have an idea? We definitely need more than just you, especially if we decide to head in different directions later."

Everyone looked at Frandin to see what he had to say.

Frandin then nodded as he scratched the back of his head.

"As you mentioned, Zasfins think nothing of humans. That much should be pretty clear for you all. However, it doesn't mean that all of them are like that. I'm sure that if you put some effort into information gathering, you will find a few who don't like the slave thing. Even back in Danve City, a few Zasfin families had human slaves but didn't treat them badly or anything. In my opinion, this is the kind of Zasfin you should focus on."

Roan found a problem with that.

"However, such Zasfins would be at the bottom of the food chain, no? Would they have any ranking whatsoever?"

Frandin nodded.

"That's why I said you would need to put some effort into information gathering. If you just want something like the families I told you about, just walk to the city's poorer areas. You'll eventually find a few Zasfins with their humans who don't treat them as slaves in some corners. You might even find a few humans without any slave collars walking with their 'owners.' However, if you want someone with a high Bloodline Rank and talent, you will need to investigate properly. After all, these Zasfins don't want to lose their power because they don't treat humans badly. That being said, they definitely keep it hidden on the surface."

Roan knew how to gather information. Just like in Sunkan Planet, this planet also had organizations that liked to sell information. 

"We should be able to buy this information with enough Spirit Stones, right?"

Frandin nodded.

"I saw a branch of the Dark Web Organization in the city center before when we went to the auction house. If there's a place you can get this information, it's there."

Rean and Roan were taken aback.

'Dark Web Organization? Wait, could it be the same Dark Web Organization from our previous world?'

'I don't know, but the names are definitely the same. First of all, we've never learned much about the Dark Web Organization back then, so we don't know how far their power stretches.'

'Could they be an interplanetary organization? Is that possible?'

Roan pondered for a bit before saying.

'This is, after all, the cultivation universe. There are forces capable of smashing an entire planet in a single attack. It wouldn't be too surprising if interplanetary organizations existed, right?'

Rean had to admit that Roan was right.

As for the others, they didn't hear what Rean and Roan talked about since they used their Soul Connection for that.

Roan then looked at Frandin before saying.

"Alright, Rean will stay here since he needs to forge the equipment for the auction. Frandin, you will come out with me for us to buy information."

Frandin shook his head, though.

"That wouldn't be a good idea."

"Why not?"

Frandin continued.

"Cough, cough... I saw how many Rank Two Spirit Stones you still have in that Dimensional Realm. Well... Let me say that it's far from enough to buy information on high-rank Zasfins, especially the ones who are hiding their good treatment to humans."

Roan then focused on the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. Sure enough, they only had a little bit over one hundred Rank Two Spirit Stones remaining.

"Sigh... Seems like we spent quite a lot on our way here."

Rean shrugged his shoulders as he said.

"Well, we didn't have the chance to sell things back in Fhanzen City before we had to run away. Naturally, we only had the Demon Cores' Spirit Stones for the travel. This planet lacks a lot of Natural Spiritual Energy in the air, so our expenditure is even higher. Wait until the next auction before you go out to buy information. After that, we should have quite a decent amount."

Roan and the others nodded after that.

Calina, Malaka, and Qia then looked at Roan before asking.

"In that case, can we go out with Frandin?"

The men in the group were puzzled, with one of them asking.

"Why?"

"Ahem... we need some... women stuff. We don't have many Spirit Stones, but that's far more than enough for the items we need. Besides, we didn't have the chance to walk around on our own lately."

Calina also mentioned.

"Of course, as you can see, I have my hair dyed, so no one will be able to tell that I'm blond. Besides, with Frandin's Rank Five Bloodline Soul Mark, I don't think anyone will try to find problems with him either."

Frandin couldn't help but sweat a little.

"Buy women stuff... B-But... You are humans, which means..."

Malaka and Qia put their hands on his shoulders.

"Obviously, it means we will select the things, but you will buy them for us. Thank you in advance."

Roan, on the other hand, simply nodded.

"Alright. I noticed that the pads you use for your periods are running out, so that makes sense."

Sure enough, Roan could talk about it without even flinching. Well, it's just that he didn't care about these things about men and women to start with.

The girls couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed when Roan talked so openly about it. It seemed like even in the Imperial Family, these issues weren't broadly spoken about.

Roan noticed their reactions but ignored them completely before continuing.

"In that case, I'm going out with you as well. If something goes wrong, I'll send everyone into the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. Besides, it would be a good chance to buy more of those makeup things. I need to change your appearances every now and then so that you don't need to rely on Rean's skill that works only temporarily."

Roan was still a very good stylist. Not to mention he had gotten better at it as he kept working on Calina from time to time back in the Dalamu Sect.

"Is anyone else coming?"

Agis immediately looked in Rean's direction.

"Ahem... I... will help Rean with his forging. You can go ahead."

Frandin felt like crying. Unlike Agis, he couldn't refuse this since he was the only Zasfin available. Nevertheless, this was a world of warriors and cultivators. Unsurprisingly, there were shops for women Zasfins. After all, alchemy also existed in this world. Nevertheless, that wasn't a place where you would see male Zasfins at all. Well, at least not the straight ones.

"Can-Can't we wait until we find the next Zasfin? It would be better if you have a female Zasfin playing the owner role."

*Pah!*

Qia, Calina, and Malaka slapped the back of his head.

"Stop wasting time. Do you think women can ignore their needs as easily as men? The three of us have been holding ourselves for months already."

Surprisingly, the three girls were a lot more pushy than normal. Usually, it would be Roan who did that.

Roan, obviously, agreed with it.

"If we can use this free time to get over these problems, we might as well do it. Let's go."

Rean then used his Light Element to change their appearances since he was better with it. One must remember that his body appearance changing skill lasted quite a few hours before needing more Light Element, after all. Roan then spread the Spiritual Sense bending skill, covering Malaka, Qia, and Calina's Dantians. After that, the three girls left with Frandin and Roan, leaving Rean and Agis behind with Kentucky.

Agis then looked at Rean before asking.

"Is it really okay?"

Rean playfully smiled when he heard that.

"Do you really think so?"

Agis couldn't help but sweat a little for Frandin.
