CH 59.1

Even though I didn’t ask for them, disabled slaves continue to arrive this winter like some kind of regular mail.

Today, I had come to the headquarters of the Magical Schenker Group to heal them.

Almost all of the organization’s executives are in attendance since we intend to assign them after treating them.

We have a relatively good supply of slaves but due to the relationship between my family and the slavers, we are in a situation where we can’t stop accepting disabled slaves.

Let’s just say it’s our way of contributing to society.

The only problem is that if things continue as they are, in another 30 years, Torquiva will be overflowing with people.

Because of that, I’ve ordered the old-timers to keep the addition of newcomers as secretly as possible. I put them in unofficial but clean dwellings and businesses.

It’s better to have more options in utilizing manpower.

In the future, I’m thinking of building a branch in another city using my father’s trading company and have them work there….

We’re in the middle of a lot of trial and error right now so it will take some more time before we can utilize our manpower in a number of ways.

Today, in addition to the regular delivery of disabled slaves, there were also male skilled slaves that I ordered from the slaver.

Last time, I bought musicians and this time, painters.

From a young man who obviously looks like a painter to an old bearded man who was said to be a former authority in the art world, they sent them all at my request.

They were all disabled slaves anyway so the price was the same whether they had a career or not.

I was going to make these guys be the painting teachers of my slaves and since my second brother’s wedding is coming up soon, I’m going to have them paint a commemorative painting for it.

I got it right this time. Lucky me.

「So, it’s them.」

「Yes, according to slaver Perseus-dono, the young men were selected based on their potential while the rest were selected based on their experience.」

Chicken answers as I check the documents but to my eyes, they all look like a bunch of dimwits.

I decided to leave them to my subordinates.

「I don’t know anything with regard to painting anyway. Just find me the best one and I’ll have him draw a painting of my family.」

At that moment, the painters in front suddenly started appealing for themselves in loud voices that drowned Chicken’s “Understood”.

「Young master! If that is the case, there’s no need for you to look anymore! This one is the “Painting Saint” Hamidel! The flower of the art world! The treasure of Kraunia!」

「No no! Don’t believe that liar! He’s an outsider who only relied on politics to rise! You should pick this “Hundred Colors” Kabayan!」

「Stop talking nonsense you oldies! This “Lightning Painting” Pustan….」

「Shut up!!」

Mince, who was standing next to Chicken and I, shouted at the painters and they instantly quieted down.

I guess painters are pushy.

「Throw them all to the new recruit’s boot camp.」

Chicken, the slave boss of our family says so while rubbing her forehead. That’s quite a fast decision.

The painters, who were about to start screaming again, were kicked by Mince. She then took them away before they could start another commotion.

It would be nice if they could behave after the boot camp. However, if that’s all it has to make them behave, they wouldn’t be artists.

「The rest are just normal slaves.」

「Let’s do it fast then.」

「Yes. Oi, bring them in!」

When Chicken said so violently, very quiet slaves have been brought in which is very contrast to the painters just now.

No, they’re not really quiet, it’s just that they didn’t even have the energy to talk.

The only one among the slaves who is in good health is a woman with a large burn scar on her face. She’s desperately trying to unload her companions from the transport carriage.

「Ah, you don’t have to unload them.」

She turns to me at the sound of my voice and is pierced by a healing magic bullet.

My healing magic has evolved from the normal straight type to mist type, then, to web type, and now, to the homing type.

The homing type is a smile and an easy way to heal someone wounded. It will simply let magic power flow until the person is healed.

It’s also the fastest way to heal someone.
