Nameless King

The auction continued, and there were no more surprises like with Bloodhunter. The next three lots were not as interesting as Dragon Cub Scale or Bloodhunter, but the bidding was active, and some gave huge sums for some items.

Ern decided to participate in the bidding and bought the last lot. It was an expensive and unique wine. It was the only one, and it was worth over ten thousand Void Souls.

"Huh, a powerful helmet and Dragon Cub Scale were common and overpriced lots for you, yet you spent so much money on wine. Aren't you contradicting yourself?"

"Of course not." Ern smiled, "There are as many scales as various helmets, and no one else has such wine. That's the simple logic of any collector, and I'm sure I'm not wrong."

Ern lightly squeezed the neck of the bottle, and the cork flew out. The aroma of the wine spread, and Ern took a deep breath.

"Ah, it's beautiful." Ern muttered and filled the two glasses to the brim, "Help yourself."

Wain was surprised. He thought Ern would save this wine for some special occasion and it would be the pride of his collection, but instead, Ern immediately started drinking it.

"Sounds like you just wanted to taste what this wine tasted like." Wain smiled and took a sip with Ern.

He felt the heat and a pleasant, light taste, incomparable to anything else.

"I don't like to hold back. What's the point of waiting for a good time if I want to taste this wine right here and now, and I can do it?"

Wain nodded, he agreed with Ern.

"You've already seen six lots, but I'm sure the seventh lot will surprise everyone, no exceptions!" The auctioneer stated, "I can say with confidence that this is one of the day's gems, and none of you even thought it was possible!"

The auctioneer's words piqued the interest of the guests. Many of them were strong warriors and possessed power, it was difficult to surprise them, but the auctioneer could not deceive them as it would tarnish the reputation of the first auction in the new world.

"Come on! Show me the seventh, the magic lot!" The auctioneer raised his cane.

The gate opened again, and a girl of medium height, shackled in shackles, stepped forward. She had pale skin, miserable blue eyes, and shoulder-length blond hair.

Hundreds of stares stared at her, and she was embarrassed, covering part of her face with her hands.

"Hmm? Are you mocking us?" Axalt on the first floor exclaimed indignantly, "This is a regular Elf Slave!"

"Really?"

"Pfft, I'm disappointed. Do you really think we've never seen a slave girl? What a shame."

The guests were outraged and upset, and the influential people on the second floor were not left out. They had been to various auctions many times before the merger of worlds, and slaves were commonplace in such places. Even very beautiful and pretty girls were nothing new.

"Please calm down!" The auctioneer stated, "I understand your concern, but do you think we would make such an oversight and dare disappoint you?"

"Then who is she? A High Elf? The daughter of a noble family? Who would even be interested in that?" The demon with one long horn on the second floor said.

"Unfortunately, you are all wrong." The auctioneer walked over to the girl and lifted her hair, exposing her ears. They were not pointy but looked plain.

"What is it...?"

"What's wrong with her ears?"

The guests were puzzled, but some had already realized what had happened, and their eyes were wide with surprise.

"That girl is not an Elf, she is a human." The auctioneer said slowly, and there was silence in the room.

Everyone was in shock, they could not believe what they had heard, but the proof was right in front of them. Only the humans, a mysterious and long-extinct race, had such an appearance. They were as clean as white sheets of paper.

Wain was the most surprised of all. Dozens of questions appeared in his mind that he could not answer.

'Who is she? Why is this girl here? How were the Demons able to catch her and bring her here? Did the demons attack Last Light? No, that's impossible. I would know about it, Gisle, Delia, or Vlad would definitely let me know about it. Fuck, what's going on here?!'

"Wain, are you okay?"

"Yeah..." Wain took a deep breath, "I'm just trying to figure out where they found her?"

"Are you afraid the Demons attacked your town?"

Wain shook his head, "In that case, it would make sense to me."

"Wain, you don't know this girl. Right?"

"Yeah, this is the first time I've seen her, and it complicates things..."

Wain wanted to understand what had happened. The demons certainly hadn't attacked Last Light, which meant someone had found this girl elsewhere, far away from the city of the humans, and that bothered him.

'There's practically no aura coming from her. Maybe it's the shackles, but to Bloodhunter, it didn't stop her from looking menacing and emitting pressure. She's weak, almost like a normal human, maybe I should buy her.'

Wain wanted to know more about this girl, he was not pursuing any lustful purposes. She was only interested in him as another human whose origins he did not know.

"You seem interested in this girl."

Wain nodded weakly, and Ern smiled.

'How curious.'

"I see that fire has flamed up in your eyes, which I expected! I won't hold you back, the starting price for a unique girl, zero Void Souls, minimum bid, just one soul!" The auctioneer stated.

"Ahahahaha. Great! I wouldn't expect anything less! Who would have thought that the humans would be here, after the worlds merged?" One of the spectators exclaimed, "My bet is ten thousand Void Souls!"

"Only ten thousand? I think you underestimate the value of this girl! My bid is thirty thousand!" Ashen from upstairs exclaimed.
