Don't Be Obsessed With An Extra

Finally, Elain brought the information he wanted.

“Tomorrow morning, a slave auction will be held.”

“Where is it?”

“It’s a closed port on the outskirts of the capital.”

“A closed port…”

Michael stood up with his beloved sword.

“Are you ready?”

“The knights are already lurking. We can leave now.”

“All right, let’s leave right away.”

Then Elain stopped him.

“Why are you blocking me?”

“Are you going to go?”

“What’s the issue?”

“Wear your armor. Are you out of your mind to go unprotected?”

“I don’t need armor. You know that.”

Of course, he knew. The best sword in the Empire, the Sword Master.

He had such great swordsmanship that no one could follow him.

Still, he was an Emperor. It was not acceptable to go unprotected.

No matter how great he was, he was also a person.

“Please wear this.”

Elain held out light leather greaves.

“Cumbersome.”

Michael frowned.

But Elain did not back down.

“Wear it.”

“All right.”

Michael had no choice but to wear greaves.

“Are we done?”

“Yes, go ahead.”

Michael looked at Elain with a disapproving face and left the Emperor’s Palace.

~~~~

Michael left the palace and rode to a closed port.

When he arrived there, the captain of the knights, who had been waiting in advance, greeted him.

“Here you are, Your Majesty.”

“What’s the situation?”

“The slave auction will begin in an hour.”

“Is it there?”

“Yes.”

Where Michael looked, there was a large ship. A slave auction would be held on that ship.

“There are quite a few present.”

Masked people were lining up to board the ship.

Everyone present was dressed in unusual fashion.

Michael looked at the ship with cold eyes.

“You and I infiltrate. The rest will wait and attack when the signal is sent.”

“Yes, Your Majesty.”

Michael changed into the clothes prepared by the knight commander and put on a mask.

Then he walked toward the ship.

It was easy to infiltrate. All he had to do was pay the participation fee.

He gave them a lot of money and was directed to the best seat.

Michael glared at the people who filled the seats on board.

‘Insects.’

They were trash that didn’t matter if you killed them right now.

Michael was going to kill them all.

So Michael waited for the right time.

~~~~

The ironclad door opened.

“Everyone, come out.”

The women rose with frightened faces and were dragged out of the cage.

Priscilla clung to Siena’s side and they went out together.

‘I’m in trouble. Time’s running out.’

She was nervous.

She couldn’t imagine what would happen if the magic was lifted.

“You come here.”

The man took Siena away from Priscilla.

“You’re the last one. And you.”

“Me?”

“Yes, you.”

“Why?”

“You’re the first one.”

“What? Why is the first one me.”

The man grinned.

“It starts with the ugliest girl.”

Priscilla looked around only then.

All the other women were prettier than the current Priscilla.

‘Shit!’

In the end, Priscilla had to separate from Siena.

Siena told her not to worry and encouraged Priscilla.

‘Yes, let’s wait for the savior as I said.’

The man covered Priscilla’s eyes and covered her with a cloth.

He also did not forget to shackle her wrists and ankles with iron chains.

~~~~

A slave trader appeared on the ship with a ringing bell.

The slave trader grinned at the guests who filled the seats.

“Thank you so much for coming together like this. Please, I hope you like the product I prepared.”

When the slave trader clapped his hands after he had finished speaking, a woman was dragged out onto the ship.

Then the atmosphere heated up.

The slave trader removed the cloth that covered the woman’s face.

“First prize.”

The slave trader introduced the woman and unblogged her eyes.

Many people came into Priscilla’s eyes.

‘Ah, shit, we’re being sold like this.’

The morning sun was rising. 

It was time for the magic to end.

“I’ll start with one hundred gold.”

The auction began in earnest with the words of the slave trader.

Priscilla smiled bitterly inside.

‘I can’t believe my ransom is one hundred gold.’

It doesn’t make sense to be able to buy and sell people, but the price is only one hundred gold.

Of course, one hundred gold is a lot of money for the common people, but for the nobles sitting there, it was the price of gum.

There weren’t many people who wanted to buy Priscilla because it was the first sale.

Maybe it’s because Priscilla was not very pretty now.

“We have 200 gold. 200 gold, any more?”

No one was shouting the amount.

Not bad for a first start, the slave trader was about to shout out for a successful bid.

Then suddenly something surprising happened.

Light began to circulate throughout Priscilla’s entire body.

Starting with that, Priscilla’s appearance began to change.

Priscilla closed her eyes tightly.

She couldn’t believe that magic would end here.

Oh well, she couldn’t have known.

Priscilla’s dull chestnut hair turned pale pink.

And her freckled face turned into a white jade.

Many people in their seats were fascinated by the view.

It was the same with slave traders.

At last the light disappeared. And Priscilla’s original appearance was revealed.

Then exclamations flowed from here and there.

Because Priscilla was so beautiful.

‘T, this is, jackpot!’

What surprised her was the same with the slave trader. His face was filled with a smile of surprise and joy.

The slave traders looked at the people standing up. They were shouting.

“I’ll buy her!”

“No! I’ll buy her!”

They shouted at each other everywhere to buy Priscilla.

Priscilla’s ransom began to soar.

Priscilla opened her closed eyes slightly and saw a number of eyes pouring toward her.

They were shouting at each other to buy her themselves.

Priscilla smiled wryly.

It was funny that people who didn’t even look at her when she was ugly suddenly did that.

But she felt a particularly harsh gaze.

Priscilla faced that gaze.

Their eyes met, and he gave her goosebumps; turning her into ice.

She couldn’t move as if she was tied to something.

‘They look familiar. Who is it?’

The man’s eyes were ripe for the day.

He was a man wearing a hood, and he looked compliant at first glance.

‘Who is it?’

She couldn’t figure it out.

He raised his hand.

And cried out a ridiculous amount.

“One hundred thousand gold.”

The attendance was silenced by the enormous sum.

The slave traders, on the other hand, had an expression that they would die from joy.

“We’ve got 100,000 gold. 100,000 gold! Is there anything else?”

No one raised their hands.

They all coveted Priscilla, but they didn’t seem to have enough money to pay 100,000 gold.

“The first prize was sold for 100,000 gold!”

The slave trader banged with a hammer and shouted that he had won the bid.

Priscilla was taken by a slave trader subordinate and led to a new owner.

As soon as he saw Priscilla, he grabbed Priscilla by the arm, drew him, drew a sword, and cut off the slave trader’s subordinate’s head.

“K. Keok!”

Starting with that, lurking knights came in.

“K, knights!”

In an instant, the slave auction house became a mess.

Priscilla was taken by a man.

He felt strangely familiar.

He dragged Priscilla into the cabin and growled.

“Why are you here?”

“What?”

“I mean, why are you here.”

Priscilla shook her head.

She couldn’t understand what he was saying.

He clicked his tongue softly and took off the hat he was wearing.

Then his shiny black hair was revealed.

And at the same time she saw his blue eyes that she could never forget.

“Your Majesty?”

Priscilla’s face turned pale.

Michael stared at her with a look of astonishment.

He never thought Priscilla was being sold as a slave.

He didn’t know the woman on the auction table would suddenly turn into Priscilla.

“I asked why you are here.”

“That…”

Priscilla closed her mouth and sighed.

She never thought he’d show up here.

And now was not the time to explain it.

Because there were people who needed to be saved first.

“I don’t think now is the time to talk about it.”

“What?”

“There’s someone I need to save.”

“Who needs to be saved?”

“Yes, the women who have been captured here. We have to save them.”

“That’s up to me and my knights. It’s none of your business.”

It doesn’t matter.

He had to save her.

The heroine.

Although the heroine was caught here and the story went wrong, Michael had to meet her.

So they can get to know each other and fall in love.

Then she could leave quietly.
