Chapter 38 - Chapter 38 : Auction

Aetius pretended to collect 54,000 gold coins in his spatial bag , but he actually collected all in the system storage space.

'Now i have 54,000+16320=70,320 gold coins! Let's see how much i will earn after the bidding.'

I am really excited now . Just 2 day's ago i only had 1 gold coins . Now i have more than 70 thousands gold coins !

With these money i will buy a lot of attack, defense and support type props .

Soon a beautiful slender women entered the room. She came swaying her beautifully waist . She is wearing a kirtle and had a belt in around her waist . She is a sarvent in this auction house. She gave me my spatial bag which had magic beasts in them .

"Sir , would you like to drink alcohol? If you want, i can give you any service you want " She said with a blushing face .

'Hmph , gold digger. '

That was the first expression that i had about her. Before coming in , she definitely heard that i have received a lot of bounty money . So taking the opportunity of delivering the space bag , she wanted to seduce a rich guy like me .

"No need ." I replied in a gangster men's voice that i have been using since entering in this place .

Even though she still has a charming smile in her face , but you can see a sad disappointed expression mildly.

I didn't bother to look twice at this gold digger and started to take a nap in the sofa . I used the sofa as if it is a bed .

Soon another female sarvent in kirtle dress came and took me to observatory room to watch the bidding.

....

4:00 pm , Colos city beasts auction house

It has been more than an hour since Aetius came here to auction off 2 monsters beasts corpse.Unlike an hour ago ,when the bidding arenas sits were mostly empty,now it is completely full and some people even are forced to keep standing in the side of sits .

This bidding arena is like a big football or soccer games ground .The auctioned beasts dead or alive are displayed in the middle of the stone paved platform. The bidders sits around the big ground . This bidding house can accommodate 10 thousands of people at a time .

So it can be seen that how excited the crowd really are ! Most of the elites who are free , traveling people's who wants to see the bidding, people who are searching for a certain type of magic beasts have come ."

While aetius was taking a small nap , the auction house was busy .They not only washed the 2 dead beasts properly, they also invited many aristocrats to come and join . After all the appearance of a ranked beasts is very rare in this city , it can also give some enjoyment to these peoples.

"Damn it ,it has been more than hour ago i came in but they still didn't showed that magic beast!"

" Oi auction house bastards ,show us the magic beast .We didn't came here to see wild animals auction."

" Sir hurry up ,my butt is now in pain after siting here for an hour !"

The auction house , as usual showing the ordinary beasts bidding that they always do .So some people grow tired seeing normal animals and started to shout .

The auction house authority decided that the time has come .

Soon the middle of stone platform ,like a door divided into two part and go down .

This immediately attracted the attention of the peoples. Unlike ordinary mortal beasts , in which the owner of the beasts goes to the platform and pour the animal out of the spatial bag and introduce it to the customer. This is completely different than usual . It means that the main reason for their waiting has finally appeared .The crowd become quit and attentive to the platform.

Soon the platform which gone down came up slowly but this time a big veil is covering something came up along with the movable platform .

"From the veil size ,It seems that it is more that 2 meters long beast .It may be a huminoid female magic monster. I hope it will be something i am looking for !"

Maerino said with expectations. She is a rank 1 fire path mage who just graduated from the mage continent and was going back to her home in Irronide kingdom .

Irronide kingdom is in the north of the Hartage kingdom . Her kingdom is also like the Hartage kingdom, they respects Novgord empire as their big brother . Novgord has five small brothers . they are Hartage kingdom,Irronide kingdom, Principality of the Antioch, Milfagard monarchy, Rize

Kingdom.

She is going north of the Hartage kingdom to reach her home kingdom . On her way ,she decided to take a rest for a day and then she will be on her way to the journey.

While she was searching for hotel for a night ,she heard that a magic beast will be auctioned in the nearest building. So she got curious and came to take a look .

She doesn't hope to find anything of value in this small roadside city ,but she still came .Well she is now free and it is a great way to pass the time .

'Melena von kursk habss lorn arum de steins' came to the auction. She is studying in the colos school 3rd and final year . She is a child of the Steins family .

Steins family was demoted from a marquis family to a barron family .Their barron territory is located close to a small city in the northern roadside of this kingdom known as colos city where hardly any travellers stop .

Even though their family was sent here ,they don't live in this poor area. They still live in their old territory of the south of this kingdom . Even if their title is demoted,but their business is all there .They still live there even after losing marquis family title.

Only a side branch family of the Steins family lives in this barron territory. Yes melena is not part of the main line of the family but a side one .All the members of her noble family lives in southern part of this kingdom both main and side brunches.

Her father was sent here to govern this useless roadside town .She is joked by the childrens of both main branch and side brunches of the steins family as a daughter of a lowly barron .

Steins family still thinks themselves as a marquis family and acts as one even after 40 years of demotion. They are licking their old wounds and preparing for the king to die .Then they will support a prince and found their title back .

Her father never liked that his family kicked them out of the both main and side Steins family and completely sever the ties with him .Now he will be a barron for the rest of his life in this poor territory which didn't generate much wealth .He tried many times to go back ,but they didn't accepted his offer saying that if he leave ,who will take his position there ? Of course if a member of steins family wants ,then her father can go back to the south of the kingdom where it is rich and wealthy. But no one is interested to run a small town which didn't generate much wealth and money.

Her father 1 hour ago told her to go to the colos city beasts auction house to see if she can find a speed type rank 1 magic beasts. She lives in colos school which is close to the auction house. Her father is currently busy monitoring his territory, so he can't come within an hour .

Auction house send massage to the many powerful family nearby telling them that a rank 1 magic beasts would be auctioned soon. Certainly, they will not say the specifics .

In her family there are only 3 rank 1 magi . 2 are forced awaked magic knight and the last one is a speed type rank 1 magi . So her father wants her to see if she can find any rank 1 speed related magic beasts to help her family's only speed magi .

Melena's family is Steins in name only . They are totally forgotten by the main and side branch of the Steins family in the south region. Sometime some of the steins family's childs would visit melena and mock her as a Barron's daughter.

That's why when Aetius laughed while she was giving her speech in that class , she became furious thinking about those bully who would laugh calling her a barron's daughter.

This is the first time she will see a magic beast with her own eyes . She is also looking forward to seeing the magic beasts appearance.

In a special room in the auction house, a dark robed rank 3 mage is casually talking with a rank 1 mage .

"So yesterday the first battle about to happen at 'Waterkoo'? What are your thoughts about this,will we win or loss. That's the very first battle so we must not lose this one ."

" Yes lord salvo , winning the first battle will be very important as it will help us keep the moral of soldiers high.I heard that Marshall duke Remus of the Blair family will be sending at least one hundred thousands of ordinary people, at least 10 thousand magic knights in this battle. As for the number of mages and holy knights that will participate, I don't know ."

" It is more than 100 years since i fought against those bastard Hussars. I was a rank 2 magi back then, i personally killed 3 rank 1 magi , 5 rank 1 holy knight of the eternal moon mistress back then .Looks like i will have to go back fighting against these moon bitches followers again! "

Hussar kingdom is like a theocracy back in world than a kingdom. The king has power in name only . Real power is in the hands of the church . Most of the people of Hussar kingdom are the followers of the Eternal moon mistress.

Eternal moon mistress religion of the Hussar kingdom is an archenemy of the moon mother goddess . They hate each other to the bone .

So even though moon mother goddess church don't like Hartage kingdom , they will still send people to beat their archenemies ass .

Both claims that their goddess has the true authority over the moon . They are destined to fight to the death .

"From the looks of the war ,i think the Hartage mage tower in capital will soon command us to help the Hartage kingdom by joining it .I can't wait in this poor colos city anymore. Using the excuse of mage towers order , i can go away and enjoy some fresh blood of those eternal moon mistress followers and pay back for some old wounds! Don't let me found that old prist , because i will cook him alive if he is still alive." The mage started to rob his right shoulder to remiscince some old memory.
