black market

@markus r. "I thought the black market is a place where they sell dark and gothic stuff." Sylus said as he play with his fingers.

Then he took out the ad flyer from his murse before showing it to the stranger. "T-This is what I found earlier. I promise I'm not joking to piss you off."

@sylus w. [ it's not a problem tyt ]

"Shopping spree?!" The dragon exclaimed out of pure exhaustion. "You're in a ing black market not a goddamn mall. If I didn't come over there, you would have been trafficked to god knows what." He gritted between his sharp fangs towards the male. "Please tell me that you are joking and you just /want/ to piss me off."

@markus r. [] sorry for the late reply.

"Y-Yeah, I-I'm there for a shopping spree b-because I saw an ad that they have great deals. I-I wouldn't help, but buy something cool." The human stuttered as the stranger drags him away from the market.

"W-Wait, I didn't get to buy anything from there."

@sylus w. . . . A ing .

Markus was trying his best to not just curse them out immediately, but as soon as they started talking, he couldn't hold back his words.

"Are you stupid or something?" The dragon asked, his dragon eyes staring deep down into their soul. "You're in a ing black market for /shopping/?!" Markus tightened his grip on them and yanked them along with. "Come on. Before you get yourself ing trafficked."

@markus r. Sylus was shocked when some passerby came out of nowhere and gave the weirdo a punch on the face before being dragged away only to be brought to the exit. "...thanks." he said in a timid tone. There was a saying that curiosity kills the cat. Well, it did in his end.

The human being dragged away by his savior to the exit even though he wanted to continue browsing in the market. was himself was embarrassed because he didn't know how to defend himself due to lack of physical strength. He has a weak physique, making him like a delicate and fragile man.

"H-Hey, I was about to continue browsing in the market. What's the big idea to drag me away from there?"

He felt bad that his ignorance lead to bad situations where people around him had to save his . Stranger or not.

@sylus w. Markus could hear the conversation from where he was. A typical interaction between predator and prey. It was the humans fault for walking into a dangerous space. Their spatial awareness must be at a zero. To think that such a place like this was for simple shopping. Markus should just leave it alone.

But the further he left it alone, the further the human was being dragged away by that man. He guessed that they had no idea how to protect themselves. Which made the situation far more insane than it should have been. Truly, how do humans live for so long being / s o / ignorant?

The more Markus looked, the more he couldn't stand it. His body moved before his mind could truly stop him. Next thing he knew, he was already between the two and his fist was connecting to the strange mans face before anything. The man was knocked out within that brief contact. Markus looked over his shoulder with anger and irritation in his dragon eyes. He grabbed at the smaller males wrist and tugged, leading them in the total opposite direction they were previously going. The / exit /.

@markus r. While walking through the streets, Sylus saw a sales advertisement before following the directions to that location. The human is very fond of shopping and is very passionate about fashion. Once he got there, he decided to browse. Being a he is, he just assumed to be a regular shopping market with sale signs.

While in the middle of browsing, Sylus was approached by some weirdo tried to invite him to with keywords like 'come with him' or let's go upstairs. Clueless, the human wasn't sure what the man meant.

To push his luck to the next level, the weirdo tried grabbing and tugging Sylus by the arm. "H-Hey, man. I'm not interested. Just leave me alone and let me shop in peace, will you?." He said while stuttering as he tries to pull away from the man.

Due to his lack of physical physical strength, Sylus is most likely to unable to defend himself as the man attempts to drag him to some place he doens't even want to go.

@sylus w. Tonight was supposed to be simple. Just drop off the body and he could go home. And well, he got the first part done already. His order was an ox hybrid that had “rubies for eyes”. Eyes that looked other worldly went for a high price in the black market. They were a problem to deal with, but it was nothing to his dragon blood at the end of it.

Markus got his pay and that was all he needed to worry about for the day. Or… so he thought. In his peripheral, he could see an interaction happening. One with a human that clearly stuck out like a sore thumb and a poor excuse of a man trying to bother the human. Probably to rob them or trick them into trafficking.

He should probably ignore it. It wasn’t his business and it was the humans fault for sticking their nose in a place where they shouldn’t.
