Chapter 209 – Auction
#209.
‘Did they know each other?’
I don’t know exactly what happened, but Rivera Dracanis must have been aware of the rumors that spread throughout the Empire two weeks ago.
After glaring at Louisiana with a bloody spirit, she glanced at Gaon and asked.
“You. Do you know this woman?”
“… No. This is the first time we have met in person.”
“Yeah, then you suddenly attacked when you saw it for the first time…”
I don’t know if it’s a previous life, but it’s the first time in this life.
When she said that it was her first meeting with Roujiena, she began to gain more momentum.
Rivera Dracanis only smiled more deeply as if she had been waiting, and the man who appeared to be her escort stood behind her like a stone statue, as if he were used to it.
“Are you ready to finally fight?”
“… Okay. It makes a very messy mess.”
“Are you looking forward to it?”
The Yongin tribe has a magical organ that cannot be compared to that of their ancestor, the Dragon, but cannot be compared to that of other races.
In addition, his various physical abilities were far superior, and even without any training, he could exert a similar level of strength to those who reached the level of 7 stars.
Among them, Rivera, who had the same ability as a dragon, was much stronger, only using human skin through the return of ancestors.
At such an impromptu moment, Gaon grabbed my hand and pulled it behind her.
“Oh! What are you doing now…”
From the time Gaon stretched out her hand, her body flinched and I couldn’t help but look up at her with a puzzled expression when he intervened.
Even so, the way he glanced at Rivera seemed to be preparing for the unexpected.
“I’m fine, calm down. Besides, this is an auction house. A fight will ruin your plans.”
“That woman attacked you.”
“I had no real intention to attack anyway. That’s why I didn’t stop it on purpose.”
“Still…”
Even if there was no actual damage, the basic way of thinking contained in the action principle itself was worthy of backlash.
Because it was something I couldn’t do unless I looked down on others.
That’s why Louisiana was also genuinely angry.
But to Gaon, what Rivera thought of him didn’t matter that much.
It was important whether the auction would be held properly and how much the magic core would be recognized and sold.
… It’s a bonus that he doesn’t want Ruggiena to get hurt.
Gaon smiled at her and put my hair in order in the ruge, which was disheveled from rushing over.
“It’s really fine. So calm down. Got it?”
“… I’ll bear with you because you say it’s okay. I won’t let it go like this next time.”
“Thank you for your concern. Then go.”
Gaon turned his back to discuss the future with his party. She didn’t even want to get into an argument with Rivera.
She had to do something she would regret later anyway, so it was comfortable to think that she would do it instead.
But Rivera thumps her feet if she doesn’t think so! She rolled over and shifted her attention back.
“For a moment. Who wants to go?”
Rivera’s voice boomed and spread throughout her hallway.
Although she is weak, goosebumps appear on her skin, perhaps because of the mixture of dragon fear, and an unknown weight begins to press down on her body.
Rivera Drakanis was a unique being who had a great interest in martial arts, unlike other dragons who depended on natural strength.
She seeks to develop her skills through fights with other powerful people, and is always receiving challenges for him. With the condition that if they win, they will grant any one wish.
It is said that some of the challengers offered marriage as a condition. In the end, it disappeared without leaving a single flesh in the enraged Rivera’s lightning.
Even after reaching the 10-star level, she says that no opponent has appeared, so her obsession with an opponent of the same class as Rougiena is bound to be great.
Gaon pulled Louisena, who was about to step out, and stepped forward.
“What else do you have to do?”
“Is there anything left to do? Of course left Surely you’re not going to end it like this, are you? Louisiana Calliope.”
Again, Rivera stared at Rougiena as if Gaon didn’t care. It’s a very thorough, but blatantly ignoring look.
“Rugiena doesn’t fight. I’m busy, so please go.
“… You’re out It’s up to you two to decide.”
She didn’t back down and continued to interrupt her fight, so annoyed that Rivera glared into her sharpened dragon.
In response, the blue electric current that bloomed from her body menacingly bit the air.
If it was an ordinary 8-star level, the terrifying momentum alone would make them hesitate, but Gaon refuted casually.
“Why should I drop out? After all, isn’t this a matter between me and you? Please talk to me.”
In the first place, it was done to provoke Louisiana, but from the outside perspective, this is a problem between Gaon and Rivera.
That’s why I said it, but from her point of view, it was just ridiculous.
“Under!? So what are you going to do? Would you like to fight me? Just at that level?”
Rivera is a person who has reached the level of 10 stars. Of course, Gaon, who was still in the 8th castle, couldn’t handle anything.
She is pushed behind even in her realm, the difference in her magic power is as great as the sky and the earth, and her physical ability is overwhelmingly inferior.
It is impossible to gain a significant advantage in technology, so if you fight now, you will be defeated.
‘As expected, it can’t be just that.’
I thought it would be like that from the beginning, but it was an atmosphere that I wouldn’t let her go because she didn’t throw even one of her food.
Gaon smiled and suggested that this could be helpful for the plan in its own way.
“It’s impossible now, so I’ll visit you in three years. We fight then.”
“What? 3 years? Did you think you could beat me in just three years?”
“That’s right.”
In three years, he will stably reach the level of 9 stars, and then he can easily handle Rivera.
Rivera, who had a blank expression for a moment at her confident answer, laughed as if she was dumbfounded.
“Under… , Haha! Ah, ahaha! Ahahahahaha! Louisiana Calliope. What’s wrong with your hair? Falling in love with such a braggart haha!”
She must have thought that she was using shallow measures to overcome the current crisis, so she laughed at Lougiena and grabbed her navel.
After laughing for a long time, she straightened her face in an instant like flipping her palm and opened her mouth.
“Don’t refuse. I have no more time to spend with you. Get out of the way right now. Otherwise, you’ll end up looking bad.”
Rivera wets her hand, saying that dealing with you is now the limit. Gaon looked down at her coldly and asked, raising the corner of her mouth mockingly at her station.
“Are you afraid right now?”
“… What?”
“Otherwise, why are you refusing? Are you anxiously waiting for a worthy opponent? Then there must be no reason to refuse?”
For Rivera, Ruggiena is more important than Gaon, so it is only natural that he refuses the challenge.
However, from the moment this cheeky person in front of me provoked me, that priority has completely changed.
She grinned, grinding her fangs in anger.
“The challenge. Do not accept Did you say 3 years? I’m telling you in case you don’t know. I don’t keep things in my hands You could die.”
“Of course I know. You don’t have to worry about dying because I have nothing to lose.”
The smile completely disappeared from Rivera’s mouth at her second provocation under the guise of her consideration.
“Okay. I like her confidence. But how can I believe that? If you run away like this, I’ll have to lose myself. Of course, you must have thought of a way to convince them, right?”
Gaon pulled out a magic contract from the sub-space, as if he was willing to bend his back right away if he had intervened without thinking.
“Write this. On the condition that I appear in front of you unconditionally within three years as a challenger. If you do, you will not be able to handle mana forever. Of course, when the time comes, you shouldn’t reject it either. Do you agree?”
“… I agree.”
With her sharp eyesight, Rivera quickly grasped the contents of the contract, and without hesitation, she signed it using her magical energy instead of ink.
When Gaon signed the contract, the contract was reconciled with mana and settled in the hearts of the two as a kind of curse.
“It’s all over. See you later.”
“Okay. I can’t wait to see that face contort. Come back to the Drakanis estate in 3 years. If you don’t come, I’ll go and kill you myself.”
“Faster is faster, there is no such thing as too late. Then, I hope you enjoy the auction.”
Rivera’s breathing faltered for an instant. She couldn’t overcome her anger and was agitated. As a martial artist, her composure is essential. Not being able to control it is tantamount to her own immaturity.
Rivera clenched her fists to regain her sanity, and swish! She turned and she fell down the stairs and threw it away.
At the same time, a shrieking voice was heard.
“Gaon-san, are you okay?”
“Master!”
Suppressed by Rivera’s momentum and falling behind, the two of them immediately approached and inspected Gaon’s whole body, then reached out and began to feel her.
I don’t intend to do it in the current situation, but somehow the touch is insidious.
Looking down coldly, Ha-yeon’s hands, which were going down from her chest to her belly and from her belly to her pubic bone, stopped. And then hee hee, and laughs.
Gaon sighed, but said that this was Ha-yeon’s behavior, and nodded and patted the two of them.
“I’m fine. No one was hurt, so don’t worry.”
“Still, I am not sure. Wait a minute.”
Chorin immediately raised her magic power and infused her life force into Gaon.
But she’s not even hurt, so there’s no way it’ll work. In the end, she was just scattered into the air, but Chorin was rather relieved.
After confirming that she was safe, he stepped behind her and fell.
“I’m really fine. I decided to fight three years later, but is it really possible? There are two levels of difference…”
“Master can do it!”
It was Hayeon who answered Chorin’s question. She gave her eyes full of trust, saying that as long as it was her master, she could do it no matter what.
Gaon replied by gently patting Hayeon’s head.
“It’s not a condition that I made without thinking. Can do enough This is what I call a regressor. I have all the information about Rivera Dracanis.”
“Then I’m glad.”
“I believed in you from the beginning!”
When Ha-yeon’s hand stops while concentrating on the conversation, Ha-yeon grabs it and strokes her own head. It was so cute that I laughed out loud.
Gaon, who was expressing affection with the lovers while checking each other’s safety, saw Ruggiena watching them from afar.
“Thank you too, Lugiena.”
“… What am i
“You pulled her tail and paid her anger for me.”
“Thank you so much?”
“Yes, of course.”
It wouldn’t have been a problem even if I hadn’t actually intervened, but it’s true that I helped anyway. Nodding her head, she hesitated, then asked cautiously.
“… Then, can you hug me too?”
“Yes?”
“I want you to hug me. 3 seconds, no, even 1 second is fine.”
“…”
It’s as easy as forcibly pulling by the collar and hugging. But she is saying this now.
I want you to hug me directly with your will.
Gaon looked at the couples for a while and noticed them, then fell into trouble at the thought that he had to decide this completely on his own.
Then she made her decision and walked over to Rouge and gently took me into her arms.
“Ah…”
“Thank you. Louisiana.”
“… Huh.”
After expressing her gratitude and stepping away, Lugiena gave her a gentle smile that she had never seen before or even once in this life.
Her eyes, which were usually reminiscent of an eerie bloody color, now showed off a charm that was hard to break out of, like sweet red wine.
As she blankly met her eyes, her fingers pricked her side.
“Gaon, shouldn’t we go in first? Time is too late. Are you starting the auction soon?”
Chorin pouted her mouth as if she didn’t like being left out like an extra.
Gaon hurriedly looked at her watch and said to Rougiena.
“It is really late. Let’s go in now.”
“Okay, come this way. It’s because it’s set up in a place where you can see it.”
Following Louisiana’s guidance, they finally moved beyond the door.
