Chapter 255 I want to change the auction method
"The slave auction begins; for cage number 1, the starting price is 50,000 gold coins. Inside is…"
The host started introducing the slaves, and Lathel was also paying attention and looking for slaves he was interested in.
Most of these slaves were either beasts or humans; however, what made Lathel a bit disappointed was that their beauty was not as endearing as he thought.
Also, due to the fact that Lathel spent a long time with the female leads, his standards of beauty had also become many times higher than normal.
Even though he has lowered his own standards, he is still not interested in the girls being auctioned.
Of course, inside those cages, there are not only women but also men.
Lathel waited until the cages were sold out, but he still didn't open his mouth.
Akna felt strange looking at him. At first, she thought that Lathel would definitely buy another slave, but when she saw him being so indifferent, it was difficult for her to understand.
"Young master, didn't you buy any slaves? As far as I can see, those slaves are of quite good quality. Although it cannot be compared to the servants in our castle, it is still enough for you to use a few times and then throw away."
Lathel: "…"
Hearing Akna speak, he felt extremely surprised. He thought that since they were all women, she would have pity or sympathy for the slaves being auctioned.
Perhaps he was thinking too much; it seemed like the culture of slave trading had been rooted in this world for too long, so Akna could say such words calmly.
Lathel shook his head and said: "No, looking at beautiful servants like you has raised my standards, that's why… I have no interest in those slaves."
Hearing that, Akna felt sweet in her heart, and her face turned red with a bit of embarrassment and satisfaction.
"Thank you, Young Master, for praising me."
"Ah! I'm not praising you, I'm just telling the truth."
The more Lathel spoke, the more shy and excited Akna became. Her heart beat continuously, as if it wanted to jump out of her chest.
If there was no one here, Akna would have rushed up and hugged him.
In the end, Akna was still able to control herself: 'It's okay, Young Master, we still have a lot of time...'
Lathel suddenly shivered, as he got the feeling that something extremely dangerous was approaching. But then he immediately dismissed the thought; that feeling happened so often that now he no longer cared about it.
Miconia was different, she gritted her teeth, and her eyes seemed to be spitting fire at Lathel: "Oy! Why are you willing to praise a servant but not me?"
"Do we know each other?"
"Ack!" Miconia couldn't refute this.
"Good! I don't know who you are; why should I praise you? Not every woman can receive my compliments; do you understand?" Lathel pouted and said.
"AAA!!!" Miconia was so angry that her head was about to burst into flames: "Lathel, do you want to die?"
"No!" Lathel said calmly: "I want to live, but I also don't want to praise you."
Miconia: ((╬ ◣ ﹏◢ ))
"Miss Miconia, please calm down." The old housekeeper spoke up. This was the first time he had seen her so angry.
"Stay away!" Miconia shouted: "If I don't kill him today, I'm not Miconia."
"Oy! Because I didn't want to compliment you, you wanted to beat me to death. If I compliment you, I'm afraid you'll cut me into a million pieces." Lathel covered his chest in fear as he spoke.
"You… you…" Miconia pointed her index finger at Lathel, She stammered, but she did not know what to say.
"Miss, please calm down." The butler sighed and said.
"Tch!" Miconia clicked her tongue, crossed her arms over her chest, and said with irritation: "You are very lucky... If my butler wasn't here, I would have killed you."
"Ah! I am indeed very lucky..." Lathel smiled contemptuously: "So that means I need to thank you, right?"
"That's right." Miconia shouted angrily.
"So… I thank you, your entire family, and all of your ancestors."
"You… AAAA!!!!" Miconia stood up angrily.
The old butler quickly grabbed her shoulder: "Miss, calm down, please calm down."
Miconia gritted her teeth, then slowly sat down, snorted in contempt, and stopped looking at Lathel.
The old butler wiped his sweat. He felt that the young lady has been angry more times today than in the past year combined.
"Next…" The auctioneer knocked on the table three times and then said: "A beast-kin girl… As you know, beast-kin girls have extremely high physical strength, and they are the race born to be gladiators."
"This girl has very high potential, and her level has reached level 50, moreover… Hahahaha… She has a beautiful appearance, and big breasts."
"I can guarantee that… if you buy her, in addition to warming the bed, she will also be an extremely reliable bodyguard."
Hearing that, Lathel glanced at Akna, frowned, and asked: "You once told me that big breasts in this place are not of interest, is that right?"
Akna did not dare look directly into Lathel's eyes; instead, she looked in another direction and said softly: "Perhaps the culture has changed."
Lathel: "…"
'You tricked me, you tricked me… huhuhu… I thought no one wanted the big-breasted girls in this place, and that I could easily take them over.'
'In the end… It's all just my imagination. Huhuhu…'
Looking at Lathel in despair, Akna blushed, lowered her head, and whispered in his ear: "Young master, sorry... I... I can make it up to you..."
"Hm?! How will you compensate me?
"I… I can do it like this… then do it like this…"
Lathel heard Akna whisper into his ear, each stream of warm, fragrant breath blowing into his ear made him fascinated.
But her words made him even more excited. He frowned and looked towards Akna, his eyes carrying a bit of doubt and surprise: "You... are you telling the truth?"
Akna pursed her lips and nodded slightly: "Uhm!"
"But… I won't force you. If you don't like it, you can…"
"No… I… I…" Akna grabbed his dress tightly and whispered in his ear: "I… I would love to do that with Young Master."
Lathel: "…" ( ⊙ _ ⊙ )
'Damn it! What kind of words are these? I really like…'
"So… tonight…" Lathel said softly.
Akna nodded, her face as red as a red apple.
"Huh! Nobles and servants, you are degrading that noble." Miconia snorted in disdain.
"Ah! Am I devaluing an old woman like you?" Lathel said angrily.
"Who do you say is an old woman?" Miconia stood up, her hands clenched into fists.
Lathel also slowly stood up and raised his chin, his expression extremely arrogant: "I am talking to you. Even if all the women in this world die, I still won't like you, old woman, old woman, old woman."
"AA!!! Butler, let me tear his mouth open to satisfy my anger." Miconia screamed.
"Miss, calm down; you can't do that. We cannot cause trouble with Karol's nobles." The butler desperately pulled Miconia's hand.
"Huh! You are lucky." Miconia was angry, gritted her teeth, and said: "Don't let me see you when you are outside Karol; otherwise, I will..."
"What will you do to me? Sleep with me?"
"That's right!" Miconia shouted: "I will pin you to the ground, tear your clothes, and rape you. Even if you scream until your throat is torn, no one will save you."
"Then… Hahaha… I will leave you lying there like a dog."
"Ah!" Lathel was startled. He took a step back, covered his chest with both hands: "You... you are so cruel."
"Huh!" Miconia sat down on the sofa and no longer paid attention to him.
"1,700,000 gold coins for the first time."
Suddenly, the voice of the auctioneer rang out, startling Lathel.
Because he was so focused on arguing with Miconia, he forgot his purpose for coming here.
Lathel immediately offered a higher price.
The host saw the sign in VIP room 1 light up and immediately became happy: "Guest number 27 offers 2,000,000 gold coins."
"Wow! Customer number 28 offered an even higher price of 3,000,000 gold coins. Great, excellent, wonderful!"
Lathel glanced at Miconia with anger. She also looked towards him and raised her chin, her face full of triumph.
He didn't want to say much, so he continued to offer a higher price.
"Wow! With 3,500,000 gold coins, the record for human slavery has been broken."
"Wait! Customer number 28 offers an even higher price, 4,000,000 gold coins."
"The record for normal slaves has been broken, will they break the record for Beast tribe slaves?"
"The record for Beast tribe slaves recorded at this branch was 10,000,000 gold coins."
The host kept talking, making the atmosphere more tense and hotter.
Lathel, of course, did not accept defeat; even if it was 10,000,000 gold coins, he could still afford it.
"5,000,000 gold coins."
"6,000,000 gold coins."
"Oh my God! The amount is still increasing, 7,000,000 gold coins."
"10,000,000 gold coins. Customer number 28 offered 10,000,000 gold coins, which has already reached a record for this auction branch."
"Guest number 27, I believe you can break this record, come on!"
Hearing that, the crowd shook their heads. 10,000,000 gold coins for a slave was a large number.
Even though she was a beautiful female Beastkin, and she had even reached level 50, no one here was stupid enough to spend such a large amount of money to buy Rolen.
Most of the nobles here are high-ranking nobles, so they all have their own private armies. Although the people in the military are not as strong as Rolen, they are completely loyal.
As for Rolen, she's just a female beastkin. If she's not careful, she will betray them and become a slow-burning bomb.
Of course, no one wants to keep such a slow bomb around.
With 10,000,000 gold coins, they could nurture a human from childhood until that person reached level 50 or even 60 easily.
Lathel frowned and glanced at Miconia. He felt that if he continued to offer prices in such a stupid way, he was afraid that the price would increase indefinitely.
In the end, the main beneficiary is the manager of this auction area.
Lathel thought for a moment, then made the decision he thought was the most reasonable.
He stood up and walked in front of the curtain, to the confusion of Miconia, the housekeeper, and Akna.
Lathel pulled open the curtain and shouted loudly: "I want to change the auction method."
