One Chuck Cheon-Geum (3)
A few days have passed since Utenia proposed to raid the auction house.
In the meantime, I kept looking at my smartphone and watched Euthenia and the apostles preparing for the raid on the auction house.
Is it because they are preparing for an attack on the auction house attended by the nobles?
Utenia showed the appearance of using even the countess, which was not usually mentioned.
Count Meyer.
It was a nobleman who ruled the territory controlled by Roan and the followers of the Order.
The fact that Roan actually operated the estate and only the legacy remained, was used by Yutenia to find out information about the auction house.
I could feel the fact that it had been quite a long time since I started the game, for sure, seeing the figure of Yutenia moving the count.
“I thought there was something like that.”

Members of the denomination, including Roan, have been doing a lot of things while I was watching.And while I’m not watching, I’ve been working on a lot more than that.
At that time, the characters simply seemed to move, but when you think about it, it was a moment when a lot of things changed.
It seems that the charm of idle games is that many things change in the blink of an eye.
Even if I don’t pay much attention to smartphones, the characters are diligently playing their roles.
It was a job that one day I might grow to the point where I could do everything without me.
– “Are you talking about going to the auction house with me?”
– “Right. Me and Pluto are going to break into the auction house together.”
– “Didn’t I say it was a tricky place where a lot of nobles gather?”
– “That’s the place. So, relatively, we plan to break through with a small number. Besides, you, Pluto, will have no problem if you expose your face to others.”
As I was watching my smartphone while soaked in thought, speech bubbles began to appear one after another over the heads of Yutenia and Pluto in the church building.
The two were having a conversation in a large, empty conference room.
Peter, who had always been the coach of Eutenia, was also in it.
Peter, who was dressed in clothes that would be worn by servants, was watching the two of them with a look of burden.
“Isn’t he originally a coachman? What is your role this time?”
Seeing that he had attended the meeting, he seemed to be involved in this operation.
It had been a long time since the three of them had gathered after rescuing the sealed Pluto.
I looked at Peter with curiosity at the appearance of Peter dressed differently than usual.
Although I had seen several scenes where Evan taught me a sword, even so, there were many doubts about his ability.
At least, it was not at a level comparable to that of Yutenia and Pluto.
– “By the way… what the hell did you bring me to do…”
Did Peter also have no idea what his role was?
It looked like he was asking a question to Euthenia and Pluto, who were having a conversation.
Seeing Peter like this, Euthenia lifted the ring with Count Meyer’s seal engraved on it.
It was the item she had received from Roan earlier.
Eutenia raised the Count’s seal and spoke to Peter.
“I have a special request for Peter. Of course, it’s not about combat.”
– “Please, what’s going on?”
– “Please attend the auction with Honorary Bishop Rex Meyer.”
Saying that, Euthenia handed the seal she was holding to Peter.
When I asked what was going on, it seemed that the auction house was looking for someone to gather information.
If that’s the case, Peter’s entry would have been perfect.
It was because his attitude always looked like a servant of Utenia.
However, Peter looked at Eutenia in front of him, blinking his eyes, probably because it seemed that Yutenia’s proposal was somewhat shocking.
– “Hey, am I going with the Count?”
– “yes. It won’t be difficult for Peter. It is not an easy task.”
– “With the Count… I’ll figure it out for now. So what should I do?”
Eutenia answered Peter’s question and answered him.
– “Please gather information about the situation inside the auction house and the catalog. Of course, you have to be careful as it will be dangerous if caught by other people in the auction house.”
– (gulp)
I smiled as I saw the emoticon floating on Peter’s head.
For things that cannot be expressed in words, emoticons were still appearing in speech bubbles like that.
However, seeing the emoticons interspersed between serious conversations, I felt that the whole conversation was somehow funny.
In the beginning of the game, there were usually only those emoticons.
When I saw the content of the conversation different from that time, I felt a great sense of inadequacy.
Especially in the case of Utenia, since it was a character I had been raising from the beginning, it seemed to overlap with the past, and many thoughts came to mind.
“I feel like the kids I was raising have already grown up.”
It was just yesterday that I threw bread one by one and raised Euthenia.
Now that he has grown up to be an apostle, he appears to be making offerings periodically.
Giving bread and raising it was a bit cumbersome, but if you think about it, it was also fun in its own way.
However, looking at Euthenia, who has grown up to become one of the church’s greatest strengths, I sometimes miss the days of stroking her and raising her.
oh Of course, stroking was something you could still do.
Except for the fact that Euthenia, who was petted by me, is drenched in pain and rolls on the floor.
“If I win the first prize in the lottery, shall I match the kids equipment and skills one by one?”
These are the characters that I have worked hard to develop over the past few months.

Moreover, the lottery ticket that Estelle gave her in her dream was also a few days left until the lottery.As long as you win the 1st prize in the lottery, cars and fine dining will follow automatically.
I was thinking of including the billing plan for the game in my happy imagination after winning the lottery.
It is the wealth that allows you to freely draw 89,900 won per 10 draws.
Just imagining it makes me feel like I have the whole world.
“And when they rush in, I have to use a skill.”
When I feel better, I feel that my consideration for the characters is also springing up.
I thought that I had to write a solar eclipse on the day the operation started, and I carefully picked up the lottery paper I had purchased last time.
If this paper wins 1st place, I will go straight to confessing to Estelle in my dream.
Of course, if you didn’t win the lottery, it was going to rain all over the country that day.

The day the special auction started in the Duchy of Obthos.
A large number of nobles gathered at the duchy’s auction house, forming a crowd.
Setius, who attended the auction, was watching the auction with a happy expression.
It was an auction in which everyone participated, from the prestigious dukes who would know their names, to the Korean-American noble families on the outskirts of the country.
Of course, the treatment received by the noble family and the aristocratic family on the frontier was completely different.
Aristocrats from prestigious families were allowed to bid in special seats, while those who were not able to bid were forced to bid in general seats in the auction house.
Even if it was a general seat at the auction house, it was a structure in which high-quality furniture for the aristocrats was divided on a table.
“It’s still going well. If I can finish it successfully like this, then even your Majesty the Duchess may see me differently.”
Is it because there are so many people and money gathered together today?
All the items exhibited at the auction house were in the process of being sold for more than the fair price.
The more expensive the items on the auction house, the higher the commission the auction house takes.
The current situation where participants lose their temper and spend money is an opportunity for Cetiers to turn into a huge performance.
What’s more, the commission that the top-class Magic Stones would pay to the auction house was unpredictable.
Towards Setius, who was satisfied with the appearance of the nobles participating in the auction, the secretary next to him spoke with a bright smile.
“As expected, Setius-sama. Your Majesty the Duchess will undoubtedly admire Setius-sama’s abilities.”
“Well then! You also have an eye for people!”
“It’s overrated. Setius-sama’s eyesight is so lowly a talent that it doesn’t even reach the tip of a hair.”
Setius, who was in a good mood at the secretary’s story, raised the wine glass in front of him.
Bump. Bump.
With a burning sensation in his throat, Setius did not even have time to fully savor the wine and passed it on.
Still, it was an attractive wine with a bitter grape flavor that lingers in the mouth.
As much as it was prepared for the aristocrats of the conference hall, it was an incomparable item with cheap wines rolling around on the market.
Having drank the wine and wet his throat, Setius tapped the table with his fingers and spoke to his secretary.
“great. I’ll have to prepare to move those things soon.”
There was only one thing that could be called the item in the special auction.
A rare item even in the Empire, the highest-grade magic crystal.
It was in preparation for putting it up for auction.
It was an item that had been hidden in the magic vault until now, but now it was time to show it to the audience sitting in the auction house.
For one thing, he had placed a bunch of great knights in the auction house.
Hearing Setius’ story, the secretary nodded and answered.
“Still, the guards are standing up and guarding. Shall I order the transport?”
“okay. You should prepare it now so that you can put it out on time, so it would be better to take it out of the safe right now.”
“All right. Then I will do as Setius-sama’s instructions.”
The moment the highest-grade magic crystal is placed on the highlight of the auction, everyone in the auction house will be truly amazed.
However, a lot of insects are bound to be entangled in sweet fruit.
It was necessary to thoroughly protect the items until they were put up on the auction house.
It was also for this reason that items were taken out of the safe just before the auction.
The moment Setius gave an order to his secretary and was about to pour wine into a wine glass to choke him.
Suddenly, the magic lantern in the auction house started blinking simultaneously.
“Are you enjoying the auction?”
At the same time, a soft voice echoed through the auction house.
Everyone who was watching the auction turned to the corner of the auction house.
In the place where everyone’s eyes were facing, a girl holding a thick book was walking in the direction of the host.
Setius’ hands trembled wildly at the sight of the girl walking to the front of the auction house.
It was because there was no prior report about the girl in front of me.
“Uh, uh…?”
“Setius-sama, what the hell is that…?”
“I don’t know either. Weren’t you prepared?”
Setius’ bewildered eyes turned to the secretary.
However, the secretary also looked bewildered and shook her head from side to side.
At the secretary’s attitude, Setius only realized the situation.
An unexpected event was taking place.
It was also happening that Cetius himself did not want at all.
“I am also enjoying this auction.”
again. again.
The sound of a girl’s light footsteps echoes across the podium.
The moderator, who was conducting the auction in front, also seemed to be perplexed.
When the girl on the podium took a seat in front of the moderator, the moderator went forward with a magic tool with amplification magic applied to it.
The moderator holding the magic tool had a face full of doubts.
The moderator looked at the girl on the podium and delivered her voice through magic tools.
“Excuse me, customer, it is difficult to come up here carelessly.”
“If I say just one more word, I might die as it is, right?”
However, the girl didn’t care about the moderator’s attitude, rather, she put her finger to her lips and smiled.
Only then did the host realize his situation and was startled.
It was because the shadow’s hand, which suddenly protruded from the floor, was holding the host’s head strongly.
A voice drenched in fear came out of the bewildered host’s mouth.
“Uh-uh… uh…?”
“Shh.”
“·················ogue.”
Setius, who had been watching the silent moderator, stood up.
A wizard who deals with extraordinary magic broke into the auction.
The scene in front of him was unmistakably an unexpected situation.
Setius got up from his seat and pointed his finger at the girl on the podium.
Setius hurriedly gave orders to the guards sitting in the auction house.
“Hey, bring that bitch down——!”
“So are you.”
The moment the mellow voice resounding from the podium ends.
Setius sensed that something strange had happened to him as well.
Whoops.
It felt like a cold sensation was touching the nape of Setius’ neck.
The grip of the shadow protruding from the floor was holding Cetius’ neck.
Cetius’ heart, touching the black shadow, began to sound an urgent warning.
“ah······.”
“I want everyone to be quiet. It gets in the way of introducing auction items.”
“·················ogue.”
As soon as the girl finished speaking, there was silence in the conference hall.
In the silence, the girl looked down at the people in the auction house one by one.
The girl who held the lives of the two of them was very relaxed.
tuk.
The girl picked up the magic brooch from the auction and put it on her chest.
Then he spoke to the nobles who were hiding among the standing knights.
“I prepared a special item for an enjoyable auction.”
In the girl’s hand, there was no such thing as a commodity.
Even the brooch that existed was still hanging on her own chest.
Nevertheless, the girl opened her mouth, pretending to be the moderator who had just conducted the auction.
As for the only auction item she can present to those present.
“The product I’m going to show you this time… is the life of the people here.”
A short but simple threat.
Immediately after that, a pitch-black world descended on the entire auction house.
Hohoho
