"Ladies and gentlemen, on behalf of all of us, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for attending tonight's auction.
It is needed our pleasure to bring and host this auction. Rest assured that you are going to enjoy all the slaves we prepare tonight.
But before we jumped on the main event, we were going to auction first some of our fine slaves. Feel free to put a bid if you like the slave that was being auctioned. So, without a further ado, let's start the auction!"
"WOAAHHHH!!"
There was a loud cheer after the auctioneer officially started the auction.
'So, that old man was the host, huh?' Reh internally thought while looking at the old man on the stage. It is the same old man who gives Reh the black paper.
"First, we have slave number one. He was a man in his thirties and still strong enough to work. He was a criminal who stole food from the Noble house! The starting bid is three gold coins!"
"4 gold coins!"
"5 gold coins!"
"6 gold coins!"
"Sold on six gold coins!"
"Next, we have a woman in her twenties. Her family has a lot of debt, so to pay their debt, they sold her as a slave! Though not a virgin, she could still perform and use in nighty activities! The starting bid is five gold coins!"
"8 gold coins!"
"10 gold coins!"
"12 gold coins!"
All the bidders were men, and they all had something in common. All of them were looking at the woman with lustful and lewd eyes.
'That's what going to happen if you don't have the power to stand for yourself.' Reh thought while looking at the woman on the stage. She was crying silently. She was going to be a plaything to whoever won the bid.
But Reh didn't care about that. He's not some kind of knight in shining armor that going to help and save anyone. That's their problem, not his.
"Sold on 15 gold coins!"
"YEAH!!" Cheered by the man who won the bid.
15 gold coins. For an ordinary family citizen or Adventurer, that amount could last for years.
The ordinary family could purchase a house and food, pay all the debt, and do some other important stuff. As for the Adventurer, they could stop their job and live a luxurious lavish lifestyle.
But this man just threw that fifteen gold coins on the single woman slave as if it was a copper coin.
But for Reh, that 15 gold coins are like a grain in his sack of rice.
*Flashback*
One year ago. In Carnage Forest, Ronald's open house.
"Here..."
Ronald put a ten-spacial pouch in front of Reh.
"Huh? What's this?" Reh said while pointing at the spacial pouch.
"Spacial pouch! Haaa... You are still an idiot through and through. You are not going to change even if I teach you everything I know." Ronald said to Reh while shaking his head.
A vein popped in Reh's head when he heard Ronald, "I know what it is! What I want to know is what I'm going to do with that?!" Blurted Ronald.
"This pouch contains a lot of money. A lot of it. Before we left the Empire back then, aside from stealing and destroying some records, I also stole all the money in the Empire's treasury. So that I could cripple their military budget and give me some time to plan our next move, but shit happens...
Anyway, you're not planning on getting your revenge without money in your pocket, am I right?" Ronald.
"Right?" Ronald repeated when he saw Reh's expression and gesture.
"This stupid idiot! So, your planning to go back there without money!"
*End of flashback*
"That's it! I know some of you were now excited about tonight's main event!"
Reh came back to reality when he heard the auctioneer on the stage.
"So... Without any delay, let me show you, ladies and gentlemen, the main event...
The Elven slave..."
From the side of the stage, a woman appeared and began to walk toward the center stage.
A pale-skinned woman with long straight silver hair, she has an average height, round silver eyes, a pointed nose, and lush lips. While she walked elegantly, her big breast was bouncing every time she stepped. But the most notable on her was her long pointed ears. The main feature of the Elven race.
All the men inside literally began to drool and gawk their eyes at this sight.
Even Reh captivated his attention towards this Elven woman. She was the most beautiful Reh had ever seen since he came. And surely, when she goes to Earth, she could consider a personification of a goddess.
But Reh felt something on the Elven woman. He doesn't sure, but he feels a faint connection with her. When the Elven woman reached the center, she faced the crowd, and the moment she did that, her eyes and Reh's eyes met. Reh saw the looked in her eyes.
Reh knew it very well. Because even he made that kind of looked. The look of being betrayed. Reh also noticed that her eyes quivered when their gazes met.
"Elves are for known their eternal life and beauty. And now I believe in that. But don't be mistaken, she's one thousand-year-old Elf, but even if that was the case, her purity was still intact!
Whoever won here would surely experience paradise, Themyscira!
The starting bid is 1000 gold coins!" The auctioneer announces.
All the men roared and cheered loudly after the announcement of the auctioneer. They didn't even hide their intention towards the Elven woman. They looked at her with lustful eyes while drooling on her perfect and sexy body.
"2000 gold coins!".
"5000 gold coins!"
"10000 gold coins!"
"15000 gold coins!"
They throw and bid a huge amount of money just to win and taste this delicious Elf.
But amidst the wild noisy crowd, they all fell silent when a voice echoed in the four corners of this room.
"100000 gold coins." Reh said.
