"How~why did you let others buy Miss Lidia?"
"I'm really sorry. The bids from the people in Box 11 were really amazing. They even directly bid 10 million Lien. It has exceeded the funds we carried and I can't continue bidding any more."
After the auction was accepted, in one of the many carriages outside the venue, the man who had been sitting in Box 21 had taken off his mask and faced the elderly man in front of him with an extremely worried statement. What happened at the auction was that I originally thought I could complete this task with three million Lien, but I didn't expect that the guests in Box 11 who suddenly appeared suddenly started bidding against me, and the result was ten million Lien. Well, the other party refused to stop, as if they insisted on buying Miss Lidya. Judging from the fact that the other party never hesitated when bidding, I suspected that even if the price increased to 20 million, the other party would continue to follow up without hesitation.
There is really nothing we can do like this. If we continue shouting, we have exceeded the funds brought in, not to mention that some of the money will be left behind to help everyone leave here afterwards.
The older man in a formal suit frowned: "Nanel! Do you know who is sitting in box No. 11?"
"I'm sorry~" The man named Nanair shook his head: "The identity of each guest at the auction is kept confidential, and there is no way to know the identity of the other party."
"I'll stay here to see if there is a chance to meet Miss Lidia. You and others can go to the back of the auction venue immediately to see the carriage and record all the heraldic emblems on it. If you are willing to spend 10 million, insist on buying it. There are not many people Miss Lidia can think of, and it may even be..." The middle-aged man took a deep breath and began to quickly search for objects he could think of.
Nanner nodded: "I'll do it right away, General!"
"Hurry! We cannot let the last hope of the Harriman family wander in this city."
After Nanair left, the middle-aged man slightly opened the curtains on the carriage and punched the carriage hard. Damn it! To actually auction off the daughter of a famous noble in the Kingdom of Creses as a slave girl, this is such a humiliation and ridicule to the entire kingdom. However, that stupid king really doesn't care about anything in order to eliminate dissidents. Sooner or later, the entire country will one day It will be destroyed in his hands.
"If Her Highness the Princess were here, this kind of thing would never happen!"
The middle-aged man sighed and looked at the exit of the venue, hoping to get some useful information. In this city, which is known as the commercial hub in the eastern part of the mainland, its nearly thousand years of heritage have made this city so powerful that even a country can He didn't dare to compete easily. Even as a general, after learning that Miss Lydia of the Harriman family was bought by the men of the big slave merchant Philibes, the only thing he could do was obey. According to the rules of this city, use the only thing that measures power in this city, money, to rescue Miss Lydia.
Otherwise, this city will use its unique cruelty and violence to bury anyone who dares to attack it!
Just as the undercurrent was surging outside the venue, Lelouch inside the venue finally finished participating in this upsetting and uncomfortable auction. However, Lelouch, who was resting in the VIP room at the moment, was looking at the person with an unnatural expression. The three girls sent by the attendant were, to be precise, two children and one girl. The intellectual and elegant Lydia Harriman, who was specially dressed in a gauze dress, and two other twin elf girls with almost identical looks and childlike and cute expressions, both of whom did not appear to be even ten years old. arrive.
“┉┉┉┉”
"Big brother, are you my new master?" X2
The two cute little lolita looked at Lelouch with innocent smiles and asked politely. They looked as if they were completely unaware that they were being traded as goods, just like cute kittens being sold by well-wishers. It was as if she had picked it up and brought it home, revealing her curiosity and joy about unknown things. Lydia stared at Lelouch without saying a word. Although she still had special magic shackles on her hands, the girl's expression was quite... Somewhat surprised.
At the auction, Lidia knew that someone bought her for 10 million Lien. In fact, even Lidia herself couldn't believe that she could be so valuable. Even on the way to the VIP room, Lidia She was thinking about the possible identity of the person who bought her, and even prepared for the worst. However, when she was taken into the VIP room and saw Lelouch sitting on the sofa, Lydia's mind was completely confused!
This young man who seems to be about the same age as himself is the master who bought him for 10 million Lien!
Compared to Lidia's surprise, the two twin elf girls were not so restrained. They had been trained for a long time and were extremely docile. They didn't even wear handcuffs. The two little lolita girls in pink and blue dresses ran over lightly. Lelouch stood in front of him, and then he knelt on the ground, staring at Lelouch with two pairs of big eyes.
They looked cute and cute, but Lelouch secretly frowned because he saw a twisted feeling of passionate love on the young faces of the two girls.
"Get up."
"It's master brother!" The two little girls smiled sweetly and stood up.
"What are your names?"
Lelouch asked, as the host failed to mention the names of the two little girls at the auction.
The little loli in a pink dress pointed to herself: "My name is Laura and I am my sister."
The little loli in a blue dress also pointed at herself: "My name is Lona and I am my younger sister."
"Hmm~ Unlock Lydia's handcuffs and let's get ready to leave." Lelouch ordered after confirming the names of the two little lolita.
Originally, the attendants in the Chamber of Commerce were a little worried. After all, after Lidia was brought here, because she was from a noble family, in order not to destroy her original temperament, she was not 're-educated' too much. As a result, Lidia's resistance was still there. It's a bit strong. Originally, after such a slave girl was purchased, unless the buyer was eager to enjoy it on the spot, the auction house would usually send it quietly to the buyer's designated residence the next day. The buyer's identity was also considered confidential. , after all, many of the people who come here are famous people outside, and these big shots are very concerned about their own face.
However, at Lelouch's insistence, the attendants could only hand the key to Lelouch, and told Lelouch to take good care of his female slave before opening the shackles for her. However, Lelouch did not appreciate it and instead As a result, the key was unlocked directly by Lidya.
Behind the auction venue, a carriage belonging to the Silver Wing Merchant Guild had quietly driven in. When Lelouch appeared with Lydia and two elf girls, Sephiroth, who was sitting on the carriage with a bored expression, could not help but frown. Picking it up, he stared at Lidia as if he had seen some rare sight, then took a few glances at the two little elf lolita, and finally focused on Lelouch. Asking the question 'what's going on'.
Soon the carriage drove out of the auction house.
The two little girls on the carriage, one on the left and the other on the right, were leaning on Lelouch like two kittens, while Lydia was slightly nervous sitting on the carriage and did not dare to speak, although the girl wanted to beg the other party to let him go. She, but Lidia also knew very well that the other party spent a full 10 million Lien to buy her, how could he release her just because of a word, besides, this is still a free city, and she can't survive alone in this city. , maybe the next moment after being released is to become a slave again.
What makes Lidia a little strange is that both the handsome silver-haired man sitting next to her and the young master who bought her closed their eyes and rested without saying a word. The whole journey seemed extremely boring. Even the two energetic little elf lolita couldn't help but become sullen and silent.
However, Lydia didn't understand that her master, whose name she didn't even know yet, was actually discussing something with her attendants quickly, in a way that Lydia couldn't eavesdrop on.
Lelouch secretly used telepathy to talk to Sephiroth. After spending a sky-high price of 10 million Lien to buy Lydia for 'free', Lelouch didn't want to give the owner here a feeling that he was just here to take a look. It felt like going through the motions. For this reason, after the host began to announce the final product, a pair of elf twins, Lelouch directly bid a starting price of three million lien, which meant that he wanted to pretend to tell The person behind the scenes here himself had the intention to buy something. Of course, it would be fine if someone raised the price. But what Lelouch didn't expect was that he didn't know why. Maybe it was because the price had been increased when he bought Lydia before. Because he shocked the whole audience, no one dared to follow up after he bid the starting price.
The host of the auction was also embarrassed at that time and introduced two more little lolita. However, in the end, no one showed interest in the twin elf lolita that were supposed to be very popular. In the end, the host had to confirm three times before making the final decision. Lelouch bought two little lolita at the lowest price.
Lelouch was praised as being lucky, but he didn't think he was lucky at all. When the supporter made the final decision, fortunately there was no mirror in the box and he had a mask on his face, otherwise the expression on his face would definitely be... As many twists and turns as there are twists, three million Lien is not too much. The recent sale of the medicine machine made the entire chamber of commerce at least tens of millions in profit.
Lelouch said calmly, not caring much whether the three girls would cause him trouble.
