440-Lilia, please come early! ?






 After looking around the stalls to a certain extent, I came with Isis-san to the main part of this third day.......the central square where the auction was taking place.
 Since there were so many people in the central square, we took into account Isis-san's death spell and observed the auction from a bit of a distance.

 When we entered this square, we were given a plate with a number on it attached to our chest. Perhaps this would be the number at the auction.
 By the way, I'm number 985 and Mr. Isis is number 986. Well, I don't have any intention to buy something at the auction at the moment. There might be something I want.

 There are a lot of people raising their hands to compete with each other. And on the stage set up in the center of the room, an emcee with a microphone was calling out the prices one after another.

''Well the participants don't seem to be shouting the prices, but how does the moderator decide?''
"....this auction ... signs by hand ... and the presenter ... is ... advanced. I've got compound eyes I'm looking at all the participants at the same time.
...I see.

 I've never seen an auction like this before, so it's kind of new to me in many ways.
 Some people are raising their hands in a thumbs-up kind of way, and I wonder if that's a hand signal?

What does this hand look like, by the way?
Oh...
"Oops! Here's more double the price! 985! It's 'one white gold coin'!'
...What?

 When I try to ask Isis what the hand signal means, she gives me a startled look, and my number is called out by the moderator immediately afterwards.
 Shh, sheesh! Well, even though I'm this far away, I can still see that moderator...............I mean, I've done my bidding.

''Well..........''
I've been called out I can't take it back.
''Ummmm... but, well, that doesn't mean we're going to win the bid...''
"One white gold coin! Do you have more than one platinum coin?  Then this item is sold by the young man number 985!''
....

 Don't let your curiosity get in the way of bypassing it.......it was a good lesson. The tuition was quite expensive, but, well, it's no use. It's my fault for being careless, so I'll just buy it outright here.

''........In the first place, what did I win the bid for?
"...uh...

 Come to think of it, I didn't know about the auction items, so I asked Mr. Isis, and out of nowhere he pulled out a huge book.

'What's that?'
...the auction catalogue ...uh ...now the catalogue number. I'm 15...so...the one before...was...there.
"Well, what... 'Journal of the First Brave, 23 pages, unread...'...

  I'm sure it's one of Noyn-san's black history things. Yes, when I receive it later, I'll give it to Mr. Noin as soon as possible.
 But the fact that I won the auction at twice the price and only one white gold coin means that there were people who wanted to buy it even if they had to pay five gold coins or five million yen for it.......................The first generation of brave men.

 While I was thinking about this, it seems that the winning bid for the number 15 item was also decided and the auction went on.

''Well, the next item is........provided by the Dark Lord!

 Hmm? What's next for Black to offer.......what the hell is it?

Catalog number 16, 'The Dark Lord's Handmade Baby Sponge Cakes'.

 Why are these baby sponge cakes being auctioned off at such a high end auction.......Black, what are you doing?

This baby sponge cake is a set of baby sponge cakes that were made by the Dark Lord to give to a certain someone as a gift, and they were not very good.

 In short, it's not a mishmash of failures, sorta! Or rather, that certain person.........

''Maybe.........Kite........Krom Eina........to feed Kite.... ....made a lot of them.
...Oh, I see........

 What is this uncomfortable feeling? Because of me, it feels like an item that doesn't deserve to be on display here....

''Then let's start with 'One Gold Coin'!

 

"234, five gold pieces! Number 57, eight gold pieces! Oops, number 622, two white gold coins!'
Yeah, yeah.......why such a value?
...and I'd like to see it all produced...
....

 Should I think that Kuro is great because he is that popular, or should I pity the people who are willing to pay tens of millions of dollars for baby sponge cakes...?
 As I was stunned by the too delicate situation, I suddenly saw a person running towards me.

''Miyama-sama!''
'...Ms. Luna Maria?
Please! Lend me some money! I want to win the bid at all costs!
Are you crazy?

 The fanatic (Lunamaria) who appeared shouted at me in a desperate manner while keeping a distance of exactly three meters.

''Of course! This Lunamaria, I wouldn't spare my life to eat the Dark Lord's homemade food!
Spare me that part!
Please! When I tried to borrow it from the lady, she wouldn't lend it to me, saying, 'Don't be a fool! I have no one else to turn to but Miyama-sama!
....

 That's completely right Lilia-san. No, it's not that I don't want to lend you money but.......even if we are friends, this Lunamaria-san's odd behavior should be stopped.

Mr. Luna Maria.
'I can't! We may never get another chance like this again!
I'll ask Black to do it for you....
'That's what I'm talking about, Master Kite! A wonderful care that grabs a woman's heart and won't let go! He is truly the most wonderful man in the world! This Lunamaria, now it's not too late to be embraced by Master Kite!
'Lilia! You runaway maid, please come and collect me quickly!

 I suggested it to calm Lunamaria-san down. I didn't know I was going to be blown away by the thought even more....... At any rate, I have to get my guardian (Lilia-san) to collect it soon........
 

''Well ... well ... I know ... Kite is ... the best in the world. .... cool.
Mr. Isis.

 Looking at Isis-san who was nodding as if to say yes, I let out a big sigh.

 Dear Mom, Dad--I came to the auction, but something has been causing a series of problems from the beginning. It's not just the fact that I won the bid, but... more than anything else, I'm afraid of Luna Maria-san, who's completely turned on. No, really, please - come quickly, Lilia-san!
