Chapter 40: The Auction Begins

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Bauhinia Auction House could not be considered very large in Talantum, but it was definitely the most luxurious building Lin Lei had ever seen.

The room in which Tullius invited him to take a bath was not worth mentioning.

Even the place where he was locked up had a full set of marble floor tiles and walls, polished to the point that his figure could be seen clearly like a mirror.

On the ground, there was a carpet of unknown fur that was as thick as Lin Lei’s palm. The soft texture made Lin Lei suspect that even if a flower vase fell on it, it would not shatter but would just bounce up half a meter.

There was also a pool in the middle of the room. A female slave in revealing clothes with golden rings on her neck and nose came forward and took off the cap of the carved bottle that a decorative statue of a naked woman was holding.

Natural hot spring water with a faint smell of sulfur flowed down from the carved bottle, and the air was filled with water vapor.

A few similarly dressed female slaves stepped forward and opened the bottles in their hands, pouring the contents into the pool.

The milk and honey were mixed into the hot water, and the thick sweet smell washed away the smell of sulfur.

Lin Lei looked at it in a daze, but it was not over. Several female slaves carried a basket of rose petals and poured them into the pool.

Then, a few female slaves began to take off his clothes, which made Lin Lei very uncomfortable. He got rid of them.

“I’ll do it myself.”

Lin Lei took off his clothes and jumped into the pool. He saw a few female slaves carrying a huge copper basin. They threw a few pieces of wood into the basin and lit it up.

The wood burned and gave off a strong fragrance, but Lin Lei was very familiar with it.

“This smell… It’s always on Tullius.”

Then, Lin Lei finally knew how Tullius had gotten this smell.

A few female slaves set up a metal rack and placed a long robe on it.

After he finished bathing, the female slaves helped Lin Lei put on his clothes, and then marked a red mole on his forehead.

After Lin Lei finished getting dressed and just as he was about to leave the room, a female slave whispered into Lin Lei’s ear.

“High Priest, do you want to escape today?”

Lin Lei was startled. He turned to look at the slaves, only to see them all saluting him in a manner that he would only see in the tribe.

“He is one and also 10,000. He surpasses everything. He’s indescribable.

“High Priest, we are all followers of the Ancestral God!”

Lin Lei frowned. What did the Ancestral God do?

…

At this time, the atmosphere in the auction hall was already quite lively.

There were many people gathered in the hall, either in twos or threes, or alone. They sat on huge chairs covered with velvet.

At this moment, a beautiful woman with a graceful figure and bold clothes stood in the center of the hall. She held a golden gavel in her fair hands and struck the bronze bell.

Clang! Clang!

As the crisp sound fell, a few strong slaves carried a huge box and walked to the front of the stage.

“My Lords, we also have an honored guest from Halhaza.

“The next item to be auctioned is one of the rarest items in the history of Bauhinia Auction House!

“It… came from hell!”

As the beautiful woman’s voice fell, the box opened with a creak, revealing the item inside.

“Woah!”

Everyone exclaimed in surprise.

Inside the box, a beautiful woman with an unusually hot figure was curled up. Her curves were like a creation of God. Her hips were large, but her waist was extremely thin. The size of her buttocks was truly an exaggeration.

If one only looked at her, she could only be said to be a beauty with a particularly good figure, but there was a slender heart-shaped tail extending from her tailbone. She also had curved reverse joints of sheep hooves, and her skin was purple in color. All of these indicated her non-human identity.

She was a succubus.

The succubus looked at the scene shyly like a pitiful kitten, arousing the desire of all the men present to protect her.

Even though everyone knew what she was, they just could not stop their desire.

“I don’t think I need to make an introduction. This item has enough value for both collection and practical use. Now… let’s start the auction!

“The starting price is 2,000 gold coins!”

The atmosphere in the hall was high, and everyone was frantically bidding by tapping on their golden bells.

“3,000! I’ll pay 3,000!”

“I bid 4,000!”

…

Amidst the commotion, Lana, who was wearing a veil, looked at Suleiman, who was lying on his side, and asked, “Your Highness, are you not going to bid?”

“I’m not interested in that,” Suleiman replied casually.

“As a believer of Ahura, I shouldn’t have any relationship with the devils from hell.”

“Hmph!” Lana snorted. “You’re not a member of the divine order. Do you need to follow the rules so strictly?”

Suleiman shook his head. “Indeed, there’s no need for that. But I’m different from you. Halhaza is also different from Talantum.

“I have to show my devotion to my faith in order to get the support of the temple. My brothers are like goshawks hunting in the desert. One mistake can cost me my life.

“Actually, I’m very envious that you don’t have to face all of this. Being away from the competition for the throne is also a kind of happiness.”

Lana secretly gritted her teeth, but she still put on an innocent expression as she said, “I’m envious that you’re a man, unlike me. I’m a woman who can’t do anything.”

Suleiman was silent for a while before he laughed at himself.

“It’s not that good to be a man.

“But women can also fight for that position. If Your Highness has any ideas, you can also contact me.

“I really hope to gain your friendship.”

Lana shook her head. “Forget it, forget it. Don’t try to tempt me anymore. I have no hope.

“Also, are you in such a bad situation that you’re in such a hurry to find an ally?”

Suleiman grabbed a bejeweled glass filled with wine and drank from it.

“It’s not that bad. It’s just that one more friend means one more way out.”

Then, he ended the topic and said, “Oh, the auction is over. You people of Talantum are really generous.”

The succubus’ final auction price was 30,000 silver coins.

A few female slaves walked down with a huge golden plate and handed the token representing the succubus to the person who won.

After the atmosphere in the hall had calmed down a little, the beautiful woman clapped her hands.

“I’m sure everyone has been waiting for the next auction item for a long time. I’m afraid that many people have come for him.

“The undefeated champion who’s the closest to a hundred-win streak in the arena, the living legend who killed the giant and the dragon!

“He’s the most popular celebrity in Talantum, the creator of miracles, and the dream lover of thousands of women and men!

“He’s the Dragon Slayer!”

As Lin Lei was carried onto the stage, the golden gavel in the beautiful woman’s hands came crashing down.

Clang! Clang!

“The auction… begins!

“The starting price is 10,000 gold coins!”

Lana and Suleiman rang the golden bell beside them at the same time.

“I offer…!”

The two of them looked at each other in unison, and a huge question popped up in their minds at the same time.
