"The auction should be starting soon. We should head over there now," Luke said.
"But where are we supposed to go?" Grace asked.
That was a good point. He hadn't thought to ask Samuel when the auction was going to start and where it was located before they went off to explore the black market. The man hadn't offered up the information either. Luke wondered if this was done on purpose. If that was the case, he was going to have several words with the man about keeping information.
"Well, this is going really well," 'Kayla' observed dryly.
Luke shot her a look, which she returned. Grace managed to keep a fight from breaking out by asking, "Do you think we can ask someone?"
"That won't work," Luke said as he looked away from 'Kayla'. "Remember, the auction is for VIPs only. They wouldn't spread the information to just anyone."
Grace's shoulder drooped as she asked, "So if we ask some of the guards, they won't tell us?"
"Exactly," he said

Realistically, Luke knew that the six items he was looking to get wouldn't be the only items in the auction, but he still found himself tapping his foot with his arms crossed as he waited impatiently for the items to appear. That wasn't to say the other items weren't good, they just weren't up to par for what he was looking for. After several items had been auctioned off, he finally saw the first item on his list.A simple looking sword was wheeled up to the stage as the announcer said, "Here we have Soulflare, a weapon that used to belong to a hero from long ago. It was bestowed upon him by the angels before becoming lost after his death. It's with great luck that we managed to get our hands on this item. We will start the bidding at 10 gold."Immediately, people started bidding. They will most likely keep it for decoration if they didn't end up using it themselves. Of course, the chances of someone being able to use it if they were not a hero were low. The natives co

A circular stone was set on the stage. There didn't seem to be anything special about it. For all intents and purposes, it looked like a regular stone. Luke could feel 'Kayla' and Grace shift in their seats. 'Kayla' was understandable as this was another angelic weapon, but he didn't understand why Grace would react the same way."This mysterious stone was once worshiped by a group of cultists who claimed that it was a gift from the heavens that was bestowed upon the Saintess at the time," said the announcer as several people gasped in awe.Luke hadn't known about that fact. He knew it was an angelic weapon, but he hadn't realized it had been used by a previous Saintess. If that was the case, then he knew who he should give the item to after he won the bid."We are uncertain of what it is exactly or what it does, but it must certainly be valuable. Who here is willing to try to uncover its secrets? We will start the bidding at 20 gold," the announcer said.

His hopes were dashed when he saw her hand shoot into the air as soon as the announcer started the bid. He tried to grab her attention to tell her to stop, but she ignored him and kept on bidding on the item. If she wasn't going to stop, then he wasn't going to give her the money to buy it. She was all on her own. At least, that was his intention until he saw the item description.[Item Information][Dreamsong][Trinket of Grace][Godly][Mana +500][A trinket blessed by angels and embedded with the power of a Saintess.][It protects its wielder from all status effects and increases luck.][It also saves the wielder from death just once.]What was this? How come he hadn't heard about this item in his
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 77: Laurel Shields
At least that was what Luke thought, but he couldn't shake the strange feeling he got when he stared at her. It felt like he somehow knew her, but that wasn't possible. In his previous life, he very rarely interacted with the natives, and someone who would dare break into a black market would have been memorable to him. Then why wouldn't the feeling go away.[Luke, you should save her.]The sudden message blocking his view startled him, but he was lucky that no one was paying him any mind with what was happening on stage. Taking the time to read the message, he couldn't understand why the demon king would want him to save some stranger. Was she someone the demon king knew? If he could feel the previous demon king's emotions, that would explain why he felt like he recognized her, which was an unpleasant thought. He didn't want to be influenced by someone else's emotions."Why?" he whispered, just in case someone noticed him talking to thin air. When the demon kin

"Why don't we put it up for a vote?" the announcer suggested. "If you wish to see her fight unarmed, raise your hand. Keep your hands down if you want her to be given a weapon."Luke scoffed. So the man was taking the coward's way out. He didn't want to disappoint the audience, as it was his job to entertain them, but he also didn't want to take responsibility if something went wrong. Now he was trying to push the responsibility onto the audience so he wouldn't be blamed. Well, it didn't matter to him as long as people chose to keep their hands down.Several people had raised their hands, obviously wanting to see her brutally killed. They were either part of the group that didn't want to see a fight and only wanted to see blood spilled, or they were part of the group that wanted to see her severely disadvantaged. Fortunately, the majority was on his side, probably thinking that the outcome was too obvious. There was no way she could have won against the goblin with just her bare hands
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 79: Laurel Shields VS Goblin (2)
The cheers and jeers drowned out most of the noises coming from the cage, which made it even more difficult for him to determine how well the fight was going. It was bad enough that they were so far away that they could only barely make out what was happening. He wished they had front row seats so he could get a better idea of how strong she was. Well, he could sort of make out some things despite all these issues.Luke could definitely see that she was just as nimble as he expected her to be with the way she kept dodging the goblin's attempts at hitting her. Even with her handicap, her skill shone through. She had yet to make a counterattack as she was probably trying to determine the best way to fight the goblin while preserving her strength for what was to come next, which was smart. The people in charge of the event would probably do something to ensure she wouldn't leave the place alive.Of course, he already had something to find to handle that. He still had the

Laurel frowned as she felt someone's glare piercing into her back. As a thief and someone who spent time around demons, she knew how to differentiate between the different kinds of glares people had. There were the I'm annoyed with you, the I'm going to kill you, and the I'm going to beat some sense into you among the few she could name. This one, however, felt like a mix of the first and third. The former made sense since these people wanted to see her dead, but the latter wasn't one she expected.She considered the possibility that one of the other harem members was here. The fact they didn't come to her aid would mean they wanted to see her take a beating or wanted to get rid of her. Of course she could be wrong, and they weren't here. She could just be imagining things, but she could still feel the glare. When she got out of this mess, she was going to hunt down the person and figure out what their deal was.At least the goblin thought she was dead, giving her time
Rise of the Demon King: Luke Hellwalker's Revenge Chapter 81: Quick Slave Auction
The announcer declared, "To make up for this oversight, we will allow you to decide her fate."People immediately started to discuss different ways to torment her. 'Kayla' grimaced in disgust at all the crude things coming out of the audience's mouth, while Grace shuddered and curled in on herself. Luke, on the other hand, had hoped for this very scenario, but it looked like he underestimated just how bloodthirsty the audience was. Many of them wanted to see how long she would last against the staff or how long she could endure torture before she broke.That wasn't his goal. He needed to save her and somehow convince her that they were on the same side. Unfortunately, he doubted she could do that latter easily and within the black market. He would need to transport her to a safer location before revealing just enough to convince her to trust him.As he was about to shout out his suggestion, someone else beat him to it. "Why not keep her as a pet? She would make
