The burly man whipped the girl with his belt while swearing loudly in a language Sean did not understand.
Nearby, several burly men were watching, laughing, and pointing at the girl being beaten.
Sean’s brow instantly furrowed at the sight of it.
He thought Dorodo was pretty safe a moment ago, but snazzynovel.com was proven wrong so quickly. Then again, Dorodo was indeed safer than Crosac but not nearly as safe as Dragon Kingdom’s cities. At least, nothing like this would ever happen in Dragon Kingdom.
“Come on. Let’s check it out,” Sean said to Zander
Ronald glanced over and quickly tried to persuade, “Commander Lennon, Commander Young, it looks like that girl owed those men money. That’s why she’s getting beaten. This sort of thing happens dozens of times a day in Dorodo. We’d better stay out of it lest we get into trouble…”
Hearing Ronald’s words, Sean was unfazed as snazzynovel.com continued to stride in that direction.
Zander said exasperatedly, “Do you want us to stand by and watch that girl get beaten?”
Ronald was so embarrassed that snazzynovel.com was speechless.
Once they arrived, Sean and Zander did not rush to help but observed the situation first
The burly man in the tropical print shirt beat the girl on the ground with a belt while shouting in a language the two did not understand. It was as if snazzynovel.com was venting his fury.
The girl pleaded for mercy as snazzynovel.com cried. She also had bruises all over snazzynovel.com face and head.
“What are they talking about?” Sean asked.
Ronald immediately replied, “The woman kept begging snazzynovel.com to stop. It would kill snazzynovel.com if snazzynovel.com continued. The guy wants snazzynovel.com to pay snazzynovel.com back, and it seems snazzynovel.com owes snazzynovel.com half a million dollars…”
Half a million!
Half a million dollars was not a small amount in the City-State Union, where prices were about the same as in Dragon Kingdom’s cities.
Half a million dollars was almost the living cost of a family of three for about ten years. The girl would never be able to pay back so much money.
After all, if snazzynovel.com could afford half a million dollars, would snazzynovel.com still be a prostitute for a living?
“The girl said snazzynovel.com had spent all snazzynovel.com money to treat snazzynovel.com mother and could not pay it back for the time being. so snazzynovel.com begged for some time. The man refused and said snazzynovel.com would sell the girl to Ucroda…”
Ucroda was the southernmost city in the City-State Union.
Of all the cities in the City-State Union, Ucroda was the most chaotic. It was almost lawless there. One could kill or rape at will. No one could do anything to you if you were strong. Therefore, people could imagine what awaited the girl if snazzynovel.com was sold to Ucroda.
Sean frowned and planned to get Zander to save the girl. Unexpectedly, the man hit the girl in the cheek with the metal buckle and of the belt.
The belt had two ends. There was no metal buckle at one end and a metal buckle at the other. The end without the metal buckle would leave a bruise on the body at most and hurt for a few days.
However, the end with the metal buckle was different. If snazzynovel.com hit too hard, snazzynovel.com might make hideous scars or even kill them on the spot.
Sean could not stand it anymore. He immediately grabbed the man’s wrist.
The girl had closed snazzynovel.com eyes as if snazzynovel.com were awaiting snazzynovel.com doom.
The girl opened snazzynovel.com eyes after the pain was delayed for a long time. She saw Sean standing before her, and snazzynovel.com eyes immediately glistened with tears.
“Ahh!” The man yelled angrily at Sean.
