3 Chapter 3
Gob POV
I looked at my slaves, and they were still terrified.
Trader: Oh, one last thing, sir. They can not disobey your orders. If they were to disobey, they would feel immense pain and eventually they would die from that pain.
Gob: I would like to speak with them privately.
Trader: Oh, right. I will be on the other side of the room.
The trader walked away, and I looked back at my new slaves.
Wenly: Um... Master... what are you going to do with us?
I kneeled.
Crack
Wenly: What was that?
Gob: Nothing important. Only my leg.
They were still in the cage and were staring at me.
Gob: I won't harm you. Wait. Maybe because my "Taming" is so high... I must be some kind of horror.
They looked less terrified, but they were afraid even after I said that I wouldn't harm them.
Gob: Let's get going. We don't want to bother the trader any longer.
Slyt: As you wish, master.
Slyt stood up and helped Wenly up. Wenly was shaking and not only because of her injures, but because of fear. I turned around.
Gob: Wenly.
Wenly: Yes, master?
Gob: Don't force yourself. Hop on.
Wenly: No. Master, I can't possibly do that. I don't wa...
Gob: Hop on and don't be afraid.
Wenly: Yes.
Slyt helped her onto my back, and I gently hold her legs. Her legs were so slim. They must be very young and underfed.
Gob: Wenly, hug my neck so that you won't fall off.
Wenly: As you command.
She lightly hugged my neck. I stood up and started walking to the exit.
Gob: Goodbye
Trader: I hope we meet again soon, sir.
As I was walking, and I could feel as Wenly was shaking on my back. On our way to the gates, I saw a tavern and since both of my slaves seemed very slime and must have been hungry I decided to go inside.
Gob: Wanna eat something?
Wenly: W-we will eat whenever we are ordered to and whatever we are ordered to.
Gob: Fine. Let's go inside.
We walked inside, and we stopped at a table, I sat Wenly into a chair then sat down next to her. Slyt sat onto my right. Soon the waiter came.
Waiter: What do you wish to eat?
Gob: I will have some soup if possible. What about you girls?
Wenly: Nothing.
Slyt: Nothing.
Gob: Then we will have three soup.
Slyt: What?
Wenly: Master, you shouldn't...
Gob: Are you saying you are perfectly well-fed and you are not hungry.
Slyt: That is not the case master.
Gob: Right, then you will eat.
Wenly: As you wish.
Gob: Why are they so stubborn. Why wouldn't they want to eat? I am not used to slavery, but this isn't right. They should say what they want.
We got the food, and I dug in. I looked at the others, but they were just gazing at the food.
Gob: Don't be shy, eat.
Slyt started eating, but Wenly was still looking at her food. She slowly reached for her spoon, but she couldn't grip it. She was righthanded, and her right arm was broken. So I decided to feed her. After we finished eating, I picked Wenly back to my back, and we headed out. Then we left the city and was walking into the woods.
Slyt: Why?
Gob: What why?
Wenly: Why are you so kind to your slaves.
Gob: Well... because that's the kind of person I am.
We stopped to take a nap and to spare my bones, so I put Wenly down.
Wendy: I don't understand why would anyone be kind to slaves especial if that slave is a dirty demihuman?
Gob: First. DO NOT call yourself a dirty demihuman. Why would you call yourself that?
Wenly: Because demihumans are worth nothing.
Gob: Take that back right now.
Wenly: Why.
Gob: You can be anything. Slime, zombie, orc, vampire, human, demihuman. You are still a person, and you are part of society.
Wenly: And why are you so kind to your slaves?
Gob: Because I have experienced torture for weeks.
Wenly: I can't believe you. You are saying it just to gain our trust then sell us just like our previous master did.
I took off my shirt and showed them all the bruises on my upper body.
Wenly: I...
Gob: I have been tortured for months. I have been tricked. I have been played with. I am fed up with that god damn country. I have no bone in my body which hasn't been broken.
Slyt: Master we...
Gob: So if you think I am tricking you. Then you are free to leave me here. You are allowed to go anywhere you want.
I walked a few meters away and reequipped my shirt then I laid down. I could hear as my bones were cracking. I closed my eyes and inspected my stats
HP: 468/20560
MP: 800/4230
EXP: 7602/9500
Lvl: 91
Gob: It seems I have gained some EXP.
Then I opened my other stats

Gob: Wow only my healing gave some insane boosts.
Then I opened my skills.
Punch: 150 5%
Detail Vision: 14 83%
Death Defying: 2 0%
Tamer: 5 32%
System: 0 0% (disabled)
Skill points: 91
Gob: Why is that skill called System disabled? Let's enable it.
???: Initiating Skill "System"
System: Wellcome. My name is System, and I am an upgraded version of "Interface".
Gob: In what way are you upgraded.
System: I am now able to communicate with you directly.
Gob: Was "Interface" that unknown voice?
System: Yes, he was.
Gob: And why did Interface had the voice of a man and why do you have the voice of a young girl??
System: "Interface" was only a tool, however, I am more or less a living being?
Gob: What do you mean by that?
System: The higher your level of System is, the more real I will be.
Gob: How do you mean "real"?
System: If your skill is high enough, you can summon me and have me help you. However, my physical abilities will be half as great as yours.
Gob: Alright, then. I guess I will put 91 points into "System" then.
I put 91 points into "System". Suddenly a little girl appeared in my vision.
System: Thank you for upgrading me, master!
Gob: GOD!
I jumped up because I got shocked due to the sudden figure in my vision. I jumped up so high I broke a branch down with my head. Due to the impact on my head, my vision became foggy, and I felt dizzy.
System: I apologise for alarming you, master. It wasn't my intention.
The little girl in my vision bowed while she apologized.
Wenly: Master! What happened?
Slyt: Master had a nightmare?
I shook my head and looked at the girls. Wenly was struggling to stand and was being helped by Slyt.
Gob: Something like that. Carp. I forgot to buy the equipment.
I looked around, and it was the middle of the night, but It wasn't cold at all.
Wenly: Master... Please don't abandon us... You were the first person who was kind to us.
Slyt: Master, we apologise for being so rude. I hope you can forgive us.
I walked closer to them and rose my hand. They started shaking in fear. I lightly patted their heads and smiled.
Gob: Don't worry. I won't abandon you.
Slyt: Really?
Wenly: Thank you, master.
Slyt: Master, could you tell us your name?
Gob: Is my name not shown in your vision.
Wenly: No. Slaves aren't allowed to see their master's information.
Slyt: The only thing we can see is master's HP, MP and EXP in percentage. Nothing more.
Gob: System, is it possible to show them my information?
System: I am afraid that is not possible. But you can open their stats, and you can see their "Attributes" and "Skills" just as if you were to use yours.
Gob: Okay thanks.
System: It was my pleasure, master.
Gob: Why are you calling me master?
System: Because you are my master.
Gob:??? Didn't you say you are more or less a living being?
System: Yes. I was created by you, master.
Gob: But you know my name right?
System: Yes I do know.
Gob: Then why don't you call me simply Gob.
System: I must call you master, master.
Gob: But why?
System: That is my duty as your underling.
Gob: WHAT??? I hope you DO know that I am from a different world, right?
System: Yes, I know.
Gob: I have no underlings/slaves. I have friends and comrades.
System: I am terribly sorry, but I can't call you by your name, master.
Gob: Great
Slyt: Master, are you alright? You have been staring at that tree for almost five minutes.
Gob: I am fine. I was just thinking.
Slyt: Master, are you sure?
Gob: Yes. Oh and my name is Gob Rendbe.
Wenly: Thank you for telling us your name, master.
Gob: Why don't you just call me simply Gob.
Slyt: Master we are prohibited to just call our master by their name. We must address them as master no matter what.
Gob: And if I order you to call me Gob.
Wenly: We can not do even if you order that.
Gob: Fine.
Slyt. Thank you for understanding Master.
Gob: By the way, do you know where the next city is located.
Slyt: Master what kind of city are you looking for.
Gob: What do you mean by that?
Slyt: There are cities of Demihumans, Vampires and humans in this layer of the world.
Gob. In this layer of the world?
System: Yes Master. There are multiple layers. Or to be more precise alternative layers.
Gob: Give me details.
System: Right away! There are places called dimensional holes. Using those holes, you can enter to the other layer of the world. Unfortunately, I am too low Leveled to give any more details on this topic.
Gob: I see. So the more I upgrade you, the more knowledgable you will be.
System: Precisely Master.
Gob: I see. Then the nearest city, which isn't inhabited or ruled by humans.
Wenly: Master, unfortunately, there are no cities left which wouldn't belong to one of the territories of the human empires.
Slyt: The city where we have been brought up is still holding up but I don't think they will last for long.
Gob: What do you mean?
Slyt: The humans have much higher population then demihumans.
Gob: I see. Then the next morning, we will head to that city you are talking about.
Wenly: Master, are you sure? That is a dangerous area.
Gob: I will side with the demihumans, and I will make the human empire pay for what they have done, and are doing.
I laid down and looked at the sky. I felt two pair of eyes on me.
Wenly: Master. W-would it be right i-if we laid n-next to you?
Slyt: J-just to be sure y-You are protected.
Gob: Fine by me. Well, I am going to look like a total pervert. Sleeping with two cute girls.
System: Ahem. Three cute girls.
Gob: O.O I am afraid.
System: Why?
Gob: This wouldn't be right, but I have to do because they want this.
System: Hey don't leave me out of the fun.
Gob: Hey System. Tell me. Can you give more details about my skills?
System: Of course. Which would you require information about?
Gob: "Death Defying".
System: I apologise, but I can't give you any kind of detail on "Death Defying". It is fart to powerful for my abilities to comprehend in my current Lvl.
Gob: What about "Detail Vision"?
System: That is a unique ability. Normally, people would be able to see only your HP and MP bars without any detail if their "Vision" is high enough. However, this distinctive skill, allows you not only to read one's HP, MP and EXP bars with information but read one's name. On higher levels, even the name of materials and the stats of any kind of object you wish to gain information about.
Gob: Wow, it sounds very useful.
System: Indeed.
Gob: And what can you tell me about "Tamer"?
System: That is also a special skill. The more slaves you have, the higher boost your slaves get in gaining EXP on any Attributes. And that also applies to you. If your "Taming" is high enough then it boosts it significantly. I don't know the reason why you gain so much EXP without using this skill.
Gob: And how does the multiplier work?
System: Let's say you have X slave.
Gob: Right.
System: (X+1)*((TamingLvl+TamerLVL*4)/100). And this is a percentage.
Gob: Wow thanks.
System: My pleasure.
Gob: So I have now two slaves
System: I am also excluded.
Gob: You are excluded as well? I don't understand.
System: I am a creation of you so in other words, I am your slave. And thanks to creating me, you not only gained +1 into that multiplayer but what I gain EXP multiplier is given to you.
Gob: So the multiplier is 4*(570+5*4)/100
System: That is 23,6% boost for the slaves and 47,2% to you.
Gob: WOW this sounds cool
After I finished my chat with System, I opened my eyes and looked around. I saw that Slyt was on my left side and Wenly was on my right side.
