The Sub-Heroine’s Butler Is a Vicious Bastard

70. Auction house (2)

‘It’s boring.’

A woman with blue hair wearing a fox mask.

Greennall Hannah, who attends the academy, was giving a long yawn under the mask.

“My lady, keep your chin.”

“No one knows me anyway.”

There was a maid standing upright next to Hannah.

No matter how much Hannah deceived her background as a wealthy commoner and entered the academy,

She is the 3rd princess of the empire with a clear right of succession.

That’s why you couldn’t walk alone.

“The maid outfit suits you very well, Lisa.”

“…Please don’t make fun of me.”

The maid called Lisa avoided Hanna’s gaze.

She disguised herself as an ordinary maid and entered the academy, but

It was an escort knight who had assisted Hannah for a long time.

“If I don’t have a conversation like this with Lisa, I might die of boredom.”

“…”

Hanna put her cheeks on the table.

She sincerely regretted coming to the auction house.

If I had known it would be like this, I would have taken a nap at home.

The reason Hanna came to the auction house was half out of curiosity.

I couldn’t go because I was busy with social gatherings every day while living as a princess.

I wanted it to be a new stimulus for me, who spends a boring life at the academy.

The problem was that the auction house was less fun than I thought.

In addition, when I saw it through the eyes of Hannah, who could read the other person’s selfishness and altruism,

This auction house was a world full of red light that was more selfish than the royal social church.

The princess quickly got tired of it.

“It was the princess who insisted on going.”

“It is, but… It’s no fun when I come here… yes?”

Hanna suddenly straightened her back and looked at the newly uploaded auction item.

It was something like a huge box covered with black cloth.

Hanna looked at what was inside with a leaning gaze, but what was inside…

“This item is the corpse of a new monster presumed to be Class A!”

It was a terribly mangled corpse of a monster.

As soon as Hannah saw it, she frowned and looked away.

It wasn’t the first time I’d seen something like a corpse, but it hurt my stomach.

“Ugh, why did something like a monster corpse come up as an auction item?”

“I mainly take it for research in the wizard guild. If it is in good condition, it could be stuffed and used as a decoration, but given the condition, that would be difficult.”

“… I didn’t want a surprise event like this.”

Hanna seriously contemplated whether to leave the auction house halfway through.

I felt like I had to stay longer to see and hear only unpleasant things, let alone fun.

Just as Hannah was about to stand up.

“The starting price will be 50 gold coins. Let the auction begin.”

“300 gold coins.”

The atmosphere of the auction house heated up with a hot raise.

“300 gold coins! 300 gold coins came out. Anyone want to raise?”

“500 gold coins.”

“I got 500 gold coins! Hey, the starting price was definitely 30 gold coins, which is amazing.”

The man in the wolf mask and the woman in the deer mask started raising frantically.

Hanna put her ass back on the chair.

I watched their movements carefully.

“1,000 gold coins.”

“1,000 gold coins! That’s a whopping 1,000 gold coins. Do you have a raise?”

The calm voice of the man in the wolf mask made the auction house frighteningly quiet.

It was a crazy price that jumped 20 times from the starting price of 50 gold coins.

With that kind of money, most common people can play and eat for the rest of their lives.

The woman in the deer mask must have realized that as well, but she trembled and did not raise.

“I will count to three. one!”

The presenter slowly started counting.

Judging by the smiling face, it seems that he is already excited about the congo water that has fallen over this incident.

He dragged on for almost tens of seconds.

“Two and a half and a half! Half of half of two and a half! … sorry. three! It’s a winning bid!”

Hogu won the mad competition… No, thunderous applause poured in for the wolf mask.

The wolf mask sat peacefully as if nothing had happened until the end,

The deer mask pointed his finger at the servant behind him.

At first glance, it was an incident that could happen in an auction house where crazy people gather.

The series of scenery looked different in Hannah’s eyes.

“…lisa. Do you know who that person is?”

“Are you talking about the wolf mask? … Why?”

Hanna pointed at the wolf mask with a stunned face.

In an instant, she had to witness it.

The moment when all the raises were over and the moderator declared the victory of the wolf mask.

Altruistic aura around the wolf mask… Because the blue flame rose sharply.

“I need to meet him right now. Lisa, let’s go.”

“Haona… ”

“Because the auction is not important right now. We have to go!”

Hannah got excited and grabbed Lisa by the hem of her dress and shook her.

I had only seen a person who could breathe such blue flames once in my life.

A man named ‘Schmitz’ whom I met at a social church in winter when I was 19 years old.

And this was the second time we met at the auction house.

Whether he was Schmitz or someone other than Schmitz, I had to meet him unconditionally.

‘I never want to miss it.’

As the 3rd princess, she always fell behind the 1st and 2nd princesses in the line of succession to the throne.

Since he was young, he was intelligent and trusted by the emperor, so he always had to be checked.

Due to their backhand work, the only follower left to him is the Lisa in front of him.

In such a situation, the role given to her was ‘doll of the social church’ and… It was a ‘tool of arranged marriage’.

The emperor, who cared for him, closed his eyes, saying, “Find the person you want and marry him.”

As long as the marriageable age was approaching, at least they had to get engaged before graduating from the academy.

And Hannah wanted to achieve that goal together with at least a person with a ‘blue vibe’.

“It is an order. Hurry up and meet that person… !”

“Listen to me. That man has already left.”

“…What?”

Only then did Hannah look back.

I quickly looked back to where the man in the wolf mask had been.

The man had already disappeared from his seat.

“when… ?”

“I left the table right after the lady spoke. My guess is that he saw the deer mask move and followed it.”

After hearing her words, I looked to the seat where the woman in the deer mask had been, and saw that she had also left.

It is said that discord at the auction house often turns into a big fight. Is that so?

If it was like usual, I would have urged Lisa to go watch the fight, saying it would be fun…

“I have to meet the wolf mask. It’s an order. Let’s move.”

“…All right. Stay close to me.”

“Whoops, thank you!”

Hanna smiled like a child and moved with Lisa.

Last time, I couldn’t move quickly due to the situation of being a social church and my disguised status…

As much as today, I will never miss the talent that has rolled into my hands.

Hanna hurried her steps, suppressing the corners of her mouth that kept rising.

“Where have these bastards gone?”

I got out of the table at the auction house and entered the hallway.

I desperately searched for the demons in the dark hallway where I could see straight ahead.

It was because of an overwhelming feeling of incongruity.

‘He ordered something and then suddenly left.’

Immediately after buying the corpse of a monster worth 50 gold coins for 1000 gold coins while doing the best hog-gang ever.

The deer mask pointed at the rice cakes behind it and left.

Apparently, the elves had their backs, so I figured that there must be some ulterior motive, so I moved right away…

Perhaps because it was located underground in a complex back alley, the corridors were quite messy.

Of course, since it was a place I frequented in the game, after walking around a bit, a map of Eolchu came into my mind.

If you were walking around the auction house, there was a separate place you had to go to first.

‘The storage room.’

It was a concept like a warehouse that temporarily stores auction items at an auction house.

I don’t know why, but the security was quite poor, so the player could rob the warehouse.

Of course, if you rob it once, you won’t be able to set foot in the auction house again, let alone a wanted person.

‘If that thing was to be obtained somehow… ‘

It’s not necrophilia, and I don’t know why you need such a disgusting monster carcass.

Anyway, since it’s the plans of the goblins who harassed Arlot, it’s only natural that they get in the way.

I hurriedly headed to the storage room of the auction house.

‘These crazy bastards.’

Did you say that sad premonitions are not wrong?

When I finally arrived at the storage room, it was after the incident had already happened.

Because the gatekeepers who had to protect the storage room were kissing the floor with their eyes closed.

“The security is more lax than I thought, giggling.”

“So. Hey, why don’t we both take one jewel each?”

“You crazy bastard, the lady said that if you touch any other item, she will kill you.”

“Don’t you know that if you don’t get caught, you are innocent?”

A muffled voice came from within the storage room.

I thought he just robbed and ran away, but is it still not too late?

I silently made my way to the storage room.

It’s not my ability as a butler… It was time to show off your skills as an assassin.
