Yeah... sorry but I see the slave card and people being "oh sure, it's totally okay having ownership over someone else" and have to drop the series...
"It's not like the african slavery, bla bla bla"
Still not good.

I like how the slap mark on his face is fading on page 13. lol

The reasoning he's proposing for buying a slave checks out... but it's definitely going to be a girl, let's all be real here.

@ralanost

You know, that's a good question.

Personally I think they just find it as a convenient plat device since slavery has been a thing in civilization since antiquity, and so wouldn't really feel out of place adding it in especially to a medieval fantasy society. I guess it only seems so overused and overdone because practically every isekai (and there are many of these in their own right) love to use slavery to drop new characters or conflicts.

There's nothing good or bad about slavery, it's not a moral discussion, it's just there. Take any chinese work that take place in a pre-modern setting. Every single one of them have slaves, but it's just so normal that nobody thinks anything about it - I'm talking about the servants you see in those stories, they're really slaves (nu, in chinese), not commoners/freemen.

That misunderstanding was probably the least funny moment thus far.

Phew lad, whatever you do, don't say that if you visit the Americans right now. They're pulling down statues and renaming buildings named after people who had any association with slaveholders, however tenuous.
