The Moonlight Swordsman - Chapter 387 Slave?

Chapter 387 Slave?

Aizel spent much of the time in the mansion, surrounded by the kids, as the grand celebration drew near.

With the arrival of the long-awaited day, the whole city became a dazzling display of joy. Parades of brightly colored decorations, the atmosphere brimming with infectious happiness.

The atmosphere was electric, with people milling about every corner and the restaurants and pubs packed to the brim.

The alleys resounded with laughter as revelers embraced the joyous ambiance. The elaborate decorations that adorned the buildings reflected the grandeur of the occasion. Felgura City was now a hive of activity, full of joy and celebration.

Along with everyone else, Aizel could feel the infectious energy as he made his way through the bustling streets.

The kids took in all the joyous atmosphere surrounding them with wide-eyed curiosity. The tantalizing scent of street food lingered in the air, enticing their senses.

As they strolled through the vibrant streets of Felgura City, Aizel and the kids, Shelly and Daisy, went on a culinary adventure, tasting every delicious dish they came across at the many street vendors and restaurants.

The air was filled with the tempting aroma of various dishes as they navigated through the bustling market.

Local games enticed the children amidst the culinary adventure.

Aizel, Daisy, and Shelly joined in the fun, trying their luck and skills.

Their day was made much more exciting when they were able to win a few prizes, which caused a burst of cheers.

With the sun setting and the city bathed in a pleasant light, the group decided it was time to wrap up their delightful day.

Reluctantly leaving the lively streets behind, they made their way to the grand celebration at the castle.

Everyone was looking forward to the feast, which would undoubtedly be a night filled with celebration and joy.

With the nighttime lights illuminating its splendor, the castle stood tall and proud, decked out for the event.

Vespara put on a sophisticated outfit, a combination of purple and black fabric. The garment fell elegantly to the floor, revealing an open-shoulder design and a modest but attractive neckline.

Delicate floral-like cuts ornamented the design, flowing towards the hem, amplifying her entire beauty.

Daisy wore an eye-catching ensemble that skillfully blended blue and black colors.

The dress had a modest neckline and was shoulder-length. Dazzlingly falling to the floor, the dress showcased elaborate floral-patterned cuts that cascaded like petals, elevating Daisy’s look.

The same was true for Shelly, however, it was in a black and golden color dress. Everyone had their hair down.

Aizel sported a traditional black noble suit, cufflinks, and shoes that were both polished and formal. His black hair was smoothly combed back, lending a polished and refined look to his overall appearance.

They sat at their table with Seraphine and Hazel, who were both dressed in their noble attire.

“Man, this is so boring; there wasn’t even a need for a celebration,” Aizel commented.

“You are right softie, however, the nobles like to celebrate, even for a small occasion,” Hazel replied.

“I see, you are not enjoying the celebration hosted by my father,” Zareena interrupted and joined them.

“So, when are you going?” She asked.

lightsnοvεl “Soon,” Aizel replied.

“Where are you going, softie?”

“Huh… just to take care of something for the princess,” Aizel replied.

“Could you excuse us for a moment?” Aizel asked, looking toward everyone.

Everyone got up and left except Zareena.

“So how am I going to travel to the beast kingdom?” Aizel asked.

“You can’t board on any normal ship. The queen has eyes everywhere. But there is a way.”

“How?” Aizel leaned in forward.

“Talk to Ashlyn,” Zareena said and then left.

*Tsk* Another pain in the ass,” he thought.

With a drink in hand, Aizel stood up and made his way through the crowd to find Ashlyn. The hall was filled with noble heads, their families, and institute mages.

He spent fifteen minutes looking for Ashlyn before he finally discovered her alone, enjoying a feast in a quiet area.

*Cough* Can I join you,” Aizel asked.

“wh…at doo uu want?” She answered, food stuffed in her mouth.

“The princess sent me here to talk with you about something,”

“Sit,”

Aizel swiftly seized a chair and settled down beside her.

“I need to go to the Beast Kingdom. Is there any way you can help?” Aizel asked.

“No”

“What… but the princess told me you would have a way?” Aizel asked.

“I can’t open a portal for you. They can detect it. But…

“But…?

“I know someone who smuggles some good through ships.”

“But princess told me that going by ship is also dangerous,” Aizel replied.

“I am talking about something else. No one will know about you and even the security will be lax.”

“How so?”

“Because it belongs to one of the noble family, I can’t give you the further details.”

“Okay, so when?” Aizel asked.

“Tonight, one ship is departing. If you want, I can make you board on it secretly.” Ashlyn replied, taking a sip of her drink.

“Damn it, what about the next one?”

“After 6 months,” she replied.

“That’s too long; I can’t wait that much.”

[What should we do, Master? We haven’t even mastered the magic circle yet]

We can practice it daily; we can’t miss this opportunity.”

“I will go; where should I meet you?” He asked.

“Hmm… I will come by your mansion later tonight, till then you can say goodbye to your friends. And make sure not to let anyone else know about this,” Ashlyn said.

“Okay,”

Quickly getting up from his seat, Aizel left to find Vespara, Daisy, and Shelly.

He saw them dancing and having a good time, and he quickly pushed them to one side.

“What’s happened, pretty boy? Ready to dance with me?” Vespara quipped in a teasing tone.

“Now is not time, I am leaving tonight for the beast kingdom. That idiot sister will help me to reach there,” He said.

“Tonight, that’s so soon,” Daisy said.

“Yes, you haven’t even mastered the magic circle yet,” Shelly said.

“I know, but if I didn’t go tonight, then I have to wait for 6 months.”

“You know, you don’t have to do this Aizel,” Daisy said.

“No Daisy, it is important. I don’t know what can happen in the next 6 months. Also, I can train in this way and get stronger,” He explained.

“Well, then make sure to catch the fairy and bring it back. I already have the rest ingredients with me. I will also make sure that nothing happens to kids and others while you are away,” Vespara said.

“Thnx, old hag, you are the best.” Aizel quickly hugged her.

“Well, before that, can we spend some time alone, pretty boy,” Her hand quickly reached and grabbed his butt.

“Damn it, you old hag.” Quickly, Aizel broke away from Vespara’s hug.

Having had a good time at the party, it was time to go. Aizel quietly slipped away without informing anyone.

Upon reaching his mansion, he observed it one last time. He hadn’t had the chance to meet the kids or share the news with them. The decision was made that Daisy would inform them later.

It’s not like I am leaving them forever,” He thought.

Ashlyn had already arrived and was waiting for him.

“Now listen, obey everything that guy will say, and don’t create any ruckus while traveling,” Ashlyn said.

Aizel nodded.

After Ashlyn opened a portal, Aizel took a deep breath and entered the whirling embrace of it.

Aizel’s eyes pried open, exposing a room filled with people. Chains bound their hands and legs as they sat on the ground, their garments ragged and half-torn.

“So you are the guy she told me about, hoho,”

Just behind him stood a man with a big bloated belly, half-bald and wearing spectacles over his eyes. Caressing his beard, he studied Aizel closely.

“Huu… Ahem.. Hello, nice to meet you,” Aizel said.

“Nice to meet you too young war god. Now quickly get naked and wear these clothes,” He gave him some light brown color clothes.

It was the same clothes that the slaves were wearing.

[Master, are we getting sold?]

Let’s do it for now,”

Quickly removing his clothes and storing them in his ring, Aizel put on the worn-out apparel. After that, the guy came over, chaining his wrists and legs.

“So here’s the deal. You are now a slave. You are going to get sold in the beast kingdom. From there, it is up to you to find a way to escape from there and go wherever you want,” The man informed him.

“AH.. Okay, got it. But what about my face? I am sure they can recognize me,””

“Hmm.. The man located some dirt and smeared Aizel’s face, tousling his hair to transform him into a beggar slave.

“Now it’s done. The rest will now depend on you and your luck.”

The guy left the room after speaking.

Aizel, realizing there was nothing else to be done, sought out a corner and sat on the ground.
