Mining "accident"

"Everyone ready?" Asked the Head Whipper as he glanced at the Slaves in front of him, feeling disgust.

"Yes sir, they can start to work right away." Stated a Whipper from a distance after he cracked his Whip.

Although a bit relieved that this task finally met an end, the head Whipper still can't help yelling. "You heard him you filthy Wild Boars, move! Follow the Whipper in front of you and don't get me in a damn bad mood."

Recalling an event that triggers every bit of his nerves, the head Whipper has to add another command now. "Bring more patrol Guards here as there are 120 Slaves armed with pickaxes and hoes. I don't need another disaster coming from low lives!"

The Whipper who obtained this command, trying to justify a past task's unforgettable embarrassment he cites. "It was fool's luck sir, I never expected for a domain as small as Hay town to sabotage our ships."

Now suddenly boiling in rage, the head Whipper yells from the top of his lungs, causing a scene and grabbing all of the attention. "Small or big, we lost 100 damn Slaves and we lost a few Soldiers as well. That's the one thing we couldn't afford to lose you bastards! I should be Whipping all of you."

And he almost did actually, given full authority to punish such disaster in the cruelest ways yet discovered, but he's aiming to get away from the Mines as soon as possible at the moment.

Because there are ladies basically waiting in the ships, knowing their fate.

And since slave rape isn't punishable in Hawk City or basically in any of the 4 domains belonging in the Iron Boot Alliance, there is literally nothing stopping this 52 year old man from joining.

But to piss off the head Whipper even further, the Whipper in front of him keeps making excuses. "We were overwhelmed sir, once we noticed them, several were already on the ship throwing this weird water that burned fast after they tossed a torch."

Continuing to shake on his feet while explaining, unable to handle anymore trauma. The poor excuse for a Whipper already has burn marks and heard so many screams when the ship burned down, he can't handle a Whipping to top of this trip.

Hitting the Whipper's face hard, not with a whip but with his right fist instead which bashed him against the ground, a rather strong embarrassment.

The head Whipper puts his excuses to an end by adding with a shout. "They wouldn't have thrown weird water if you and the rest didn't neglect your duty and kept Guard. Pray to the 3 Gods that they didn't manage to burn all 4 ships otherwise even if you survived, I would kill you and your family too! Bastard. Now be gone!"

As the Head Whipper yelled, the man who got punched to the ground, swiftly stood up and started running away from the scene and headed towards the mines, leaving a couple of teeth near the attacker.

But because of fear, not paying much attention to his surroundings, due to that, ending up stepping on his own whip and falling face first on the dirt.

Not caring about what he just experienced, he stood up again and made a run for it towards the deeper branches of the mines.

This sight of fear and stupidity pleased the head Whipper and shortly after, making his way towards the ships in the river with his lust growing.

Moments after he witnesses a scene that he... is fairly getting used off.

This isn't their first slave trade or in this case, slave capturing. But since Hawk city has 18,000 non-slave civilians living in it, being the most populated domain in the Iron Boot Alliance, the slaves before were sent in less populated domains of the Alliance such as Lumber city, Bale city or New Bale city for appropriate prices.

These domains are just members of an Alliance after all, they don't owe each other tax but just buy each other's resources for progress.

Peace between these four domains is a less spoken off perk although active, the intent of an Alliance is to portray their selves strong against possible attackers.

However, in the green river where he's witnessing many foul activities, some are proving unusual.

For example, a few ladies have chosen to start enjoying their fate, which is tad less disturbing to see compared to women begging for this nightmare to stop, begging for death and some even trying to drown themselves to escape this madness.

It is a terrible scene but all the Guards and Whippers do is laugh at the victims and continue raping them while further screams are also heard in the ships.

"How many 6 golders did we get?" He casually asks another Whipper, as if he's used to this form of business.

"18, this time it was quite plentiful compared to last time." Answered the Whipper, but his face is wearing disgust, tipping that he isn't enjoying this misfortune.

"Grab the finest one and send her to the empty boat at the end of the dock, I need my reward as well and remember... this didn't happen." A psychopathic laugh follows after, you would expect it from a man who makes a living torturing people.

"As you command sir!" Compliments the Whipper with a similar laugh, but it didn't seem as life filled.

The Whipper walked into the second ship without wasting another second and came out dragging a healthy able bodied woman in her twenties by the hair as she's resisting.

But he avoided whipping her since it would drop her market value afterwards and he would need to cover the lost expenses, something unaffordable for him really.

"Let me go, please!" Yelled the woman with tears in her eyes knowing what her fate is about to be.

But when noticing that she's being dragged into an empty boat, understanding a possibly worse fate became inevitable.

Thrown into the empty ship's captain's cabin, stripped out of her clothes and begging for the Whipper to open the door, today luck won't work by her side.

"Give me the key." With his tongue down like a bloodhound, the head Whipper gazes through the glass window and witnessed what beauty the Whipper fetched and couldn't wait another second to get inside.

The Whipper gave him the key right away and heard another command afterwards from the head Whipper. "Stand Guard here, I will not share this beauty before I'm done."

"Of course sir." Answers the Guard with no life in his tone.

As the head Whipper bashes in, he grabs the poor fated woman and pushes her on the bed, to give himself enough time to close the door.

"Please, I didn't do anything bad to deserve this. Please don't do it!" She cried out and burst into tears, trying to cover her private parts, which is next to impossible when considering her different features.

But with no sympathy, he replies. "Don't worry, at least you aren't jumping from cock to cock, for now."

...

Meanwhile in the mines, Aaron James is trying his best to break down Iron Ore while having it hard to ignore the severe bloody wound on his leg caused by that Whipper in the beginning.

"What! Only 1 ore? You've been in here for an hour Jackass!" A Whipper yelled while arming his Whip, aiming to hit Aaron.

One thing he notices, this is the same man who Whipped him down and almost made him cough up blood with all those kicks to the waist.

This whistling high pitched tone is hard to forget under a short time, Aaron doesn't need to see this jackas' face to remember who he is.

"I'm new to this, give me some time please." And this ain't no lie, he isn't used at all to mining.

Apart from that, he came from a different timeline which made the whole thing a lot more difficult. At this point simply dying would have been better than this.

But the longer his soul stayed in this new body, the more memories the former body owner had started appearing in Aaron's mind, explaining why he ended up being a slave in the first place.

He fled from his own Country [Makemis] to avoid inevitable death due to the constant war between the two Alliances there.

One Alliance called the "Earth rippers" is in constant war with the other Alliance called the "Earth quakers" which caused for so many victims to flee towards the border.

Where the slavers of Hawk city fooled these people with a promised better life.

Aaron now technically comes from the Earth quakers Alliance, at least that's where he used to come from until the Earth rippers Alliance attacked the city where Aaron lived in with an army too big for his home city to fight off.

The man's family all died in the hands of the Earth rippers, he almost shared the same fate but when weighing his options, fleeing became inevitable if life was to be prolonged.

He also remembered his name being Macek, but he doesn't like that name.

And since he is in a country around strangers, he will use his own name, Aaron James because it sounds medieval too.

But the Key memory flash he had was remembering that he himself is an Earth quaker who actually has powers.

A Natural Power based on a strong animal species, bears. This power relies on one's physical strength, it is based on the bears because they have one of the strongest legs in the animal kingdom.

Getting back to the scene in the mine, before Whipping Aaron, the jackass says something inevitably with double standards. "You dare question my authority slave? Then suffer!"

Hitting Aaron, control no longer stood by his side due to the sudden sharp new pain.

Turning around, taking a full forced swing, Aaron hit the Whipper with the Iron part of the pickaxe which isn't sharp, simply the area in the middle where the two sides separate.

The Whipper screamed in pain and fell to the ground, curled into a ball. Holding his head wound with his hands and continuing to scream.

The Whipper's scream for help is nothing less of a sweet melody in Aaron's ears, he even broke this retard's mask off!

And as much as he wants to rearrange this man's organs with countless kicks, there isn't much time to waste.

He gave one final spit at his enemy and used the 25 kilogram Iron ball to hit the Whipper's stomach.

Afterwards Aaron hits the chain attaching his leg to the 25 kilogram Iron ball, this will help gain a swift escape.

Trying to run his way out of the mines, he notices that several Whippers and Patrol Guards are arriving at the scene, leaving no way to run through this branch (third) of the Mine.

Even though he feels like what he did was stupid, the reward was as good as heaven to take revenge upon such a foul soul.
