My Beautiful Disciples, I'm really not the Main Character! - Chapter 606

Chapter 606: Chapter 606: Plan in motion
“I didn’t know you were so poor that you were buying this slave for profit. Oh, you poor child,” Estelia retorted, no less feisty than the Dragon Princess.

She didn’t forget to taunt the girl who was trying to portray it as her victory. “I simply bought him because I felt like it, not to profit from him. It’s truly sad that you have to resort to the slave trade to earn money.”

“If I knew that you were in such a situation, I might have let you take him. My bad.” Estelia rested a leg over the other, as she comfortably moved back on her chair like a queen.

“You!” The Dragon Princess clenched her small fists, hearing the insult hidden in those words.

She had simply said that she was giving up because she didn’t think the slave was worth it, but her words were twisted to make it sound as if she was trying to buy a slave for profit, like someone desperate for money.

Even though she couldn’t hear it in the silence of her room, she was certain that many people were laughing at her. She wanted to say something, but the Auctioneer spoke up, marking the end to the bidding.

“Congratulations to Lady Estelia for buying such an impressive slave. He will be delivered to your room along with any other items that you might buy during the auction, at the end.”

The Auctioneer released the chain, and had the servants move the cage back, still leaving him as a specimen there during the rest of the auction.

The next item was brought forward, and introduced to the guests. The bidding process again, but after the bidding war on the first item, the bidding on the second item looked a little lackluster, even if the item was impressive.

Eren also didn’t pay much attention to the second auction item. His eyes kept darting back to Lenniel, who was still in the cage. He was bought by Estelia, which was the worst thing that could have happened to him.

When Lenniel was going to be delivered to their Auction room, he was certain that things were going to become much worse for him.

There was no chance that Lenniel was not going to recognise him. And when he recognised, many secrets about his past were going to be revealed, including things that had nothing to do with him in the first place.

The past that might come in the open was the past of Ren Necroline, who had done things that even Eren didn’t completely know about.

It was too late to pray for the best outcome at this point. Luck had failed him. He was sure that there was only one thing that could be done. He had to take luck in his own hands, and do something drastic.

Eren was lost in deep thoughts, as his eyes kept observing the Cage that was behind the Auctioneer. Estelia could also feel that something was wrong with him. He seemed much more serious ever since the first auction began.

Even if he said that he didn’t know that person on the stage, she believed that the reality was different. There was definitely something between the two of them, which made her look forward to the end of the auction.

“That bitch, she made me look like a fool.” The Dragon Princess also hadn’t come to terms with her loss. She also refused to give up on Lenniel, even if she had lost the auction.

She made up her mind to steal Lenniel from Estelia after they left the Auction House. Even if it was a risky endeavour, as long as they were fast and ensured that it couldn’t be linked to her, it doesn’t matter.

She picked up a communication crystal and started contacting some people, telling them to ensure that their identity wasn’t revealed when they were robbing Estelia.

They didn’t only have to rob Estelia and get away before the others took action, but they had to do that without revealing their true identity. She was sure that the secret guards of her brother were perfect for something like this.

While the Dragon Princess was putting a plan into motion, Eren was also making a plan. However, his plan was quite different.

His plan didn’t begin outside the auction house, and it didn’t include kidnapping Lenniel. Instead, his plan only included a single thing. It was to kill Lenniel before he could be delivered to Estelia.

It was that man’s fault for being caught by these people after all. Moreover, it was much better to be dead than to live the life of a slave in this world. He didn’t think that he had any need to feel bad about this.

The auction kept moving slowly, and occasionally Estelia and the other Primordials made some bids, and bought the items. With every new item that was being auctioned in this world, Eren was able to learn something more about this world.

Quite a lot of items that were auctioned, were things that belonged to other worlds that had connected to Hell, once upon a time. They were like rare collector’s items. Some of those items were even things that came from earth, and were bought by Estelia and other Primordials.

There were also a few more slaves that were auctioned, and even the more powerful weapons that were used in Hell.

Some of these artefacts even made Eren raise a brow as greed flashed in his eyes, as these things were even more powerful than most precious treasures that belonged to him.

If he had money to spend, he would have a hard time resisting the urge to bid as well. Fortunately, he didn’t even have a single spirit stone.

He had lots of time to start arranging for his plan, as he analyzed every single detail about this auction house, using his divine consciousness.

“And now for the last item of today’s auction, that you have all been waiting for!” The Auctioneer said, and almost all the Primordial Demons straightened their backs. It was finally time for the item that they came to buy.

Meanwhile, Eren also took it as his cue. Now that it was the last item that everyone was going to be interested in, it was the perfect distraction for him to put his plan in motion.

He stood up, “I need to go to the toilet. I will be right back.”
