A man with long ears on one side slowly stepped onto the stage.
I saw Cho Hyejinâs face with his lips tightly closed.
âIt seems that the people who do not want to reveal their identity to each other are all equally ordinary⌠Seeing that youâre here, you seem to be the same, but Iâm more capable than you think. Perhaps I can be helpful. In many ways, evenâŚâ
âLetâs go quickly, Yuka.â
As I looked beside me, I saw Cho Hyejin shivering. his crumpled face and clenched fists seemed to represent his feelings. I knew she would be a little angry, but I couldnât even imagine that he would be this furious.
These cheap comments were typical of such a place. I was expecting more for such a luxurious atmosphere, but this part seemed to be inevitable.
âPlease, go away quickly. Please disappear. Disappear from the continentâŚâ
There were also many crazy guys, but they were irrelevant since they didnât care about me in the first place.
âLetâs stand up.â
âYes, Haruka-nim.â
It seemed to me that he was regretting this and was feeling stressed. Maybe he couldnât even imagine that something like this existed. She didnât really understand how this place worked.
âIt wouldnât be nice for me to take too long, since you are all busy people. Itâs sudden, but Iâll start the auction right away. First, we have the 54-year-old Elf Rumenia.â
âYour subordinate is more possessive than I thoughtâŚâ
Iâll never do that, bitch.â
âHahaha. Of course, I thought you would feel that way.â
âI want to hear his voice.â
Cho Hyejin pulled me towards herself once more, but I knew she did not mean anything by it except to protect me. However, to everyone else, it looked like he was marking his territory.
âI think thatâs similar. Itâs a little bit painful to say that these are the ones who get affected, but⌠Anyway, walk a little closerâŚâ
he must not mean anything strange.
As if it hadnât started yet, I could see more people coming in and taking seats one by one.
In the end, Shaolin slowly started to move away from us as well. Seeing some of the men nearby running towards her, I could guess that they were his subordinates.
âPaper and pen.â
I glanced at Cho Hyejin helplessly, as if telling his to handle this insane man in front of me. Seeing this, he stepped forward, still holding my hand tightly.
âFuckâŚâ
âI will contact you if I have the time.â
âThis is the address where I can receive the letter. I hope you will contact me soon.â
âOur relationship is not your business. Would you step aside? If you keep bothering us, Iâll call security. I donât want to cause any problems, so please just go away. Itâs also quite unpleasant that you keep blocking our way.â
Anyway, as I still had a purpose, I had to look around slowly once again.
âYou must. You made a promise, okay? Then, Iâll be goingâŚâ
As if unsatisfied, I felt his gaze continuously followed me. I could feel goosebumps rising on my skin. I tried to avoid his gaze as much as possible, yet at some point, I could affirm that he was indeed completely gone.
âI donât know who you are, but I think thatâs enough. He has clearly refused. Donât be rude.â
âIt hurts quite a bit to hear that right in my face.â
âItâs undesirable popularity in a place like this. I wish you could walk a little closer.â
âItâs not about being possessive or not. Itâs about basic etiquette.â
I had no plans of meeting any of the women here.
âIâm glad to know that. Do you know anything about different races?â
âI donât want to pretend to have a good relationship with you either, but canât you at least make it look like youâre marking your territory? Itâs uncomfortable to have eyes focused on me from everywhere.â
âYes.â
âAhhhâŚâ
However, it worked. As we walked like a couple in a romantic relationship, felt safer, as if I was out of these womenâs range.
âShe probably didnât follow us. Donât look at her. I donât want to announce that Iâm here.â
As it was a place where customersâ security and safety should be thorough, I could reduce my worries about anything happening.
âLetâs never meet again.â
Inside was a typical slave auction house. Numerous people were sitting in luxurious chairs, indicating that they were regulars in this place.
When I took a seat with Cho Hyejin, I saw a guide approaching us. she must have come to ask what we were going to drink. Meanwhile, I felt like I could fall asleep just sitting in this luxurious and fluffy chair.
âItâs a bit unpleasant being so close.â
Apparently, he had been here even before we came in.
When one could see people disappearing one by one in the corridor that was once full of guests, it seemed that everyone had gone for their own personal affairs. That meant we should, as well.
When I glanced at the security guarding one of the doors, they went and opened it for us.
âDonât do that. It may not be obvious, but I am pretty attractive. You canât check my face because of the mask. This is uncomfortable. I canât even take it offâŚâ
âIs it his first time seeing a different species?â
Of course, it was undeniable that everyone here was also capable, but I didnât want the number of women I had to deal with to increase.
âWeâll be with you next time when the opportunity comes. I am sorry, but I have an appointment today.â
âYouâve all been waiting for a long time. Today, I would like to express my sincere thanks to all of you for visiting our auction house. You can look forward to the quality of todayâs products. We have our heart in our club, which always delivers sincerity.â
âWell, I did not check before coming in⌠It looks like a slave auction house. Iâm just saying this, but letâs not make a fuss.â
âHelp! Please.. Help. Someone⌠Please help me.â
âAre you spraying pheromones?â
âNo. I only heard them through stories. I just saw it once during that time.â
âReally? Itâs a little disappointing. I donât know much about it, either.â
âRather than that, look at that man sitting farther. Isnât that the same one from earlier?â
As I followed his gaze, I could see that it was definitely that woman.
âWhat is this place?â
I could see the two women staring at each other. I felt a little nervous, but what could this crazy man do? he knew that he couldnât make a fuss here.
Cho Hyejin also started to snoop around as if he was getting used to this place. Right now, his curiosity seemed to triumph over his discomfort. However, the more we went inside, the more he noticed that the atmosphere was changing, so he naturally became cautious.
I tried to turn my gaze away from her, and after a while, someone stepped onto the stage. Bright lights poured down from across the room.
he was puffing his mouth, but I couldnât hear his voice, so he seemed to be under some spell.
Thus, a man with a unique characteristic of Corpse Lover looking at me slowly moved away from the crowd. Another woman, whose unique characteristic was A Master that Causes Pain, also lost interest.
âIâm sorry.â
What Money Canât Buy (3)
As two people who came together slowly grabbed the elfâs body and arrested her, he screamed and opened his mouth, but I still couldnât hear his voice.
However, I was only fooled for a short while.
As anxiety began to grip my entire being, I had no choice but to grip Cho Hyejinâs hand.
Greed quickly filled the eyes of those sitting in their seats.
Then, a voice spoke.
âYouâre very popular.â
âThere are so many crazy women here.â
It seemed like they were trying to show us his back, but he trembled as if that alone was terrifying. Big tears popped out of his eyes, and he couldnât even stand as if his legs gave out.
âAs he doesnât have any fighting ability, we didnât train her. I think it might be a necessary item for customers with a sadistic personality. Itâs also quite a young age for an elf.â
In the first place, talking to others in this kind of place was not a commonsense behavior. It was clear that the man I just saw had been a little too active.
âAh. If you want, of course, I have to show you. I need to ask for the other customersâ consent. From now on, Iâll only release the karate that sheâs been under for a while.â
The wizard on one side of the stage slowly chants a spell, and immediately a voice similar to a scream burst out.
âI know that much.â
The voice itself was clear and crisp, but the content was not clear, he looked around with a crying voice, but there was no way that there would be a reaction.
In the first place, some nobles of the Holy Empire did not see other races as human
âShe has a nice voice.â
âWhat the⌠he was a subordinate and not a girlfriend?â
âEven just for a minute? Iâd like to talk in a quiet place. I donât do this to anyone⌠Really.â
Cho Hyejinâs personality was a little better than I thought.
âI say it once again, but if you cause a fussâŚ.â
âL⌠know.â
In other words, this was the scene depicting human rights violations. Definitely, the common sense of modern people could not be understood.
There is no way the righteous Cho Hyejin can understand the low people who sent cheers or raised their fingers to express purchase intentions. They didnât even care about the pain of others. No, to be precise, they enjoyed seeing others in pain.
âWhat do you think is the problem? What do you think can solve the problem?â
âWhat do you want to hear?â
âNothing, Yuka.â
âOkay, Yuka.â
âThis is normal. Honestly, itâs surprising that itâs a little cleaner than I thought. Well, there may be places dealing with special slaves, but there is no time. You better pass it over.â
I hated this, but my own eyes widened. This was because she had the most beautiful face than anyone I had seen so far.
âI checked the reality of the slave trade myself. So, arenât you curious about how the monsters that they caught illegally will be used?â
âThatâsâŚâ
âThis is a hard-earned object. he has unusual emerald-colored hair, and, as you can see, he is in great shape. Itâs a clean product thatâs very well maintained, as well as its nutritional status.â
Seeing the elf looking up at the stage with a terrifying face, I frowned, his body was not wearing a single thread, and her hands and feet were wearing restraints. his trembling figure was enough to induce sympathy.
âGive me a glass, too.â
I knew he would react like this.
âLetâs go to another place, Haruka.â
âItâs hard to promise that Iâll contact you, but Iâll see you someday.â
