Ugh, I can't believe someone as smart as you is being this dense.
System #1: Slavery/Bondservant - Non-Israelite is owned, against his will, by an Israelite master, and may be willed (along with children) to the children of the master.
System #2: Indentured Servitude - An Israelite bonds himself to the service of another person, perhaps in exchange for repayment of debts.
The fact that there was a system by which a person could voluntarily (or under pressure of debt) sell himself into servitude does not mean that it's the only system, that the other system didn't exist, or that they're both basically the same thing. If you talk about the Indentured Servitude system (#2) one more time as a way of deflecting from the existence of System #1, slavery, I'm going to have to conclude you're being willfully ignorant, and are beyond help and reason.
And are you seriously proposing the people of ancient Israel had no currency?

A Christian told me: if you were saved you cant lose your salvation. you're sealed with the Holy Ghost
I replied: Can I refuse? Because I find the entire concept of vicarious blood sacrifice atonement to be morally abhorrent, the concept of holding flawed creatures permanently accountable for social misbehaviors and thought crimes to be morally abhorrent, and the concept of calling something "free" when it comes with the strings of subjugation and obedience perhaps the most morally abhorrent of all... and that's without even going into the history of justifying genocide, slavery, rape, misogyny, religious intolerance, and suppression of free speech which has been attributed by your own scriptures to your deity. I want a refund. I would burn happily rather than serve the monster you profess to love.
