"Yes... but don't you like it ?"Noah took off his mask and questioned with a "innocent" manner.Sylvia also took off her mask, and after putting her arms around Noah's neck and giving him a few shakes, she questioned as if she had been treated unfairly."Even if that's the case, why do you spend so much money on this.""But atleast you agree that you like it, right?"However, Noah didn't seem to mind what she was doing. He quietly extended his hand, attempting to lift Sylvia off the sofa and place her on his lap.After which Sylvia sat on his lap, facing him, and let him do as he wished.However, as he looked at her, she had an unhappy smile on her face and she groaned in frustration."Ugh...""All right, I give up, but it's not at all expensive; it's cheap.""that's cheap?"Sylvia looked at Noah with a slightly tired expression."Considering the effects of this potion, it is on the cheap side.""Do you know how many barley breads we can purchase for 120,000 primos? If this thing is

"I accidentally overheard a Slayer say something. I kept it in mind that time because I felt it would be interesting, and when I later looked into it more, I discovered something unusual about it."When I first saw the regressors' memories, I was very aware of what I was seeing and knew want I had to do, but I can't tell that to Sylvia. The book that will appear in this 'last auction' was my goal."What is it ?""A unique book that would show up here is what I'm looking for. I discovered that this auction sells items that could undoubtedly lead individuals to wage war if known outside, and it even sells 'products' that..... I don't know...."No, can it really be even called a product? I don't know.Nevertheless, the book I wanted would appear on stage in the most ridiculous-looking display, but unlike the piece of art, it would not be available for purchase at such a low price.There was also one more reason I was here, specifically the second reason for bringing Sylvia, but I still

—Everyone, please hold on.~Clap Clap!The host stopped accepting bids and clapped his hands. Guests started focusing on him and voicing their displeasure because of the sudden interruption.The host, though, simply grinned and began speaking after ensuring that he had everyone's full attention.—I apologise for interrupting everyone again, but I haven't completed providing the product's whole introduction.He made dramatic hand motions in Luna's direction. After which the he spoke once again.—I want to let everyone know that this item is a little unique, since, despite her young age, she is already a half Awakened.—Its definitely one of a kind. And, we have already verified that the girl has mana in her body, and she is able to perceive it too, but because she is only partially awakened, we are unable to assess her potential rank and super-powers."At such a young age, half-awakened?""It is definitely great.""Hello, this little girl is mine."The VIP guests began muttering once a

August, one of the twelve faction leader for [Lost Night], was gritting his teeth in annoyance as he saw the Bid rise once again.At first, everything went according to his plan. He came to this auction today to purchase the lost book [Twilight orb], about which he had learned from one of his sources.Due to his current workload of managing all the information, and the search for the experimental girl who ran away from their lab and was eventually captured by the Slayers when his team members attempted to find her, he was already tensed.Because of the missing girl, all operations and plans related to her came to a halt which was a huge loss for the organisation, and August, who was in charge of collecting information and analyzing data, was given the task of finding the kid.August exerted every resource at his disposal, but the girl's situation remained unknown even after quite some time. He became even more discouraged and anxious as a result. He reasoned that humans might have b

Bzzzz...!!( Noah ..... Noah.... Hello....?? )After puking blood, I was about to lose consciousness and was kneeling on the floor when my vision started to get blurred.It was then.My ears began to buzz before Sylvia's voice suddenly appeared like a beacon of light for me. Dragging me out of the sea of darkness, and helping me regain my bearings.( Noah??... Are you alright? )I became aware of how careless my behaviour actually was when I heard her voice being so concerned and frightened. There was a possibility that Luna could have killed me today if I had fallen unconscious, no matter how insignificant. The Lost Night may have even attacked the Venue in an effort to find Luna.After thinking along those lines, which gave me the goosebumps, I quickly glanced in the direction of Luna and quickly responded to Sylvia."Y-yeah. I'm doing fine. Have you arrived safely?Luna was perplexedly staring at my blood on the floor, but when she spotted my gaze on her that expression instantly
