Although Aarons had decided to abandon his name in his previous life, his life experience and values before crossing over were not so easy to erase.
"Tsk, she looks a bit pitiful."
The alien woman who had almost used all her strength to breathe might die in a foreign land soon.
And the merchant's guess, which was true or false, was probably just a fabrication to sell the goods that were about to expire in time.
"Hehe, you seem to be very interested in this product."
"I don't deny it, but I can't believe the saying that it can make people upgrade."
"I really can't guarantee the authenticity of that statement, but since there is some possibility, you shouldn't let it go, right?"
The merchant probably heard the rumors about the Marquisate, and guessed that Aarons might be desperate now, so he deliberately found an excuse to sell this "goods" that was about to lose its value.
"Hey, if you really buy this foreign woman back, it will be a win-win situation for us. Even if you can't bear to kill her, it can be regarded as a good deed, and I can not only recover some losses, but also have one less burden on the road."
Dealing with such a conscienceless businessman really made Aarons feel sick from the bottom of his heart.
Although even if he bought the woman, she might not live for too long, but it was better than dying in the slave trader's truck.
"Ah...how much, name a price."
"That's great, young master, you are a man who can do great things. This product is in this state now, and I don't want to make any more money from you. So, you can take out three gold coins and let me make up for the loss of food and medical care?"
"One gold coin at most, if you don't sell it, just leave."
Aarons didn't want to bargain seriously with such a person, and he really didn't have three gold coins in his hand.
Even if he only spent one gold coin, he would lose most of the assets he just found.
"Oh, I can't accept your bargaining like this."
"Sell it or not, I won't lose anything if I don't buy it."
"Really, how can you, the young master of a wealthy family, act like a poor man who can't even afford a few copper coins?"
Hearing this half-sarcastic remark, Aarons simply rolled his eyes and turned around and walked towards the gate of the yard.
"Oh, wait a minute... Why are you so anxious? I didn't say the price can't be negotiated?"
"I still have things to do. Ninety-five silver coins, I'll pay if you want to sell it."
"Ha ha ha, you are really a thrifty person. Just pay one gold coin and I'll give you some medicine and nutritional supplements, how about that?"
Turning around, Aarons sneered a few times, and finally took out his only gold coin and shook it in front of the merchant.
"Give her some medicine first, and then find a thicker cushion separately, and the money is yours."
"I don't make a penny doing business with you."
"Next time you dare to bring this kind of goods, I will ask the city government to arrest you."
Although he knew that he must have lost a lot, when Aarons saw the disabled and dying wolf woman being carried down on the cushion, he still felt as if his heart was tightened by something.
And watching the gloomy merchant who got the gold coins and directed his convoy to slowly leave, Aarons, holding the magic contract, felt a nameless anger in his chest.
Such cruel things are probably just part of common sense in this world.
"Old man, go back and find a bed to clean up. If you don't have one, use the one I lived in before."
"Young Master, what are you doing?"
"I have to move her back first?"
Aarons had grabbed a corner of the mat and planned to drag the alien woman into the yard first. But unexpectedly, the old gardener questioned his behavior.
"Young Master, what's wrong with you? Didn't that person just say that if you kill her with your own hands, you might be able to improve your strength?"
"Wait, what do you mean?"
"I'll get you a knife now, and you can do it outside."
Hearing this, Aarons' expression immediately became distorted.
The old gardener didn't think about so many complicated issues at all. He completely believed the words of the unscrupulous businessman and just wanted Aarons, who was called a waste, to improve his strength as soon as possible.
However, even though this alien woman was only half alive, Aarons never thought of taking her life in order to become stronger.
"I won't kill"This, how can this be? Young Master, you are the heir of the Marquis's family, how can you give up the opportunity to make yourself stronger? If you don't have the strength, the Marquis's family will really fall!" The old man's mind is very simple, and this simplicity is actually a kind of cruelty. This world may have tacitly allowed humans to hurt others in order to make themselves stronger, but Aarons does not want to give up the values and bottom line of his previous life. "If you are poor, you should take care of yourself... I also have my own principles." Even if he can't change this reality, Aarons is unwilling to go with the flow. "Even if the title of the Marquis doesn't fall on my head in the end, I won't kill people for selfish desires." "Alas, alas... Why are you still so kind! When the Marquis started his career, he was decisive in killing. Why didn't you inherit the advantages of the master!" "If you compare me with others again, you can just pack up and go home to retire. "
——At this time, Aarons himself did not realize that his voice was as cold as frost in the cold night.
"The strong have their own rules, and the weak have their own way of living. If you can't agree with my ideas, don't waste your time here."
"Young, young master, you... I dare not! I will never say anything more!"
Looking at the hunchbacked old man who kept bowing and apologizing in fear, Aarons's mood slowly returned to normal.
"I will move her to the bedroom and settle her down first, and then go to the study to see if I can find a way to help her prolong her life. Old man, pack up the medicine and find a place to put it, and then go to rest."
"Yes, yes... I will listen to you, young master. "
Looking at the slowly departing figure of the only old man still loyal to the Marquis's family, Aarons actually felt a little guilty.
He was indeed an incompetent weakling. Even if he had the knowledge and life experience of two lives, he might not be able to turn things around.
"It will be even more difficult next time."
However, what Aarons didn't notice at all was that the wolf woman lying on the mat at her feet, already dying, had been staring at him with her only remaining brown eye from beginning to end.
