In the bathroom, Kai was alone again. His stomach felt extremely full, and he pressed on it several times because it hurt and felt hard.
He was truly grateful that Sylas had given him so much delicious food, but he was so full that he didn't dare say anything. He was afraid Sylas might not give him more food in the future if he complained.
Kai took a deep breath; his chest felt tight. He crawled to the edge of the bathtub and leaned against it. His stomach was distended.
He looked around the bathroom—it was spotless. He had spent the whole day cleaning it. There wasn't much to do, since the place didn't even have a speck of dust.
But of course, he had to work. Sylas had given him a good place to stay, and Kai hoped he could live there forever.
Back in Omino, he had heard many stories about slaves being forced to sleep in kitchens, bathrooms, or even outside. He used to imagine how terrible that must have been, because people always described it as a kind of misfortune.
