“Now, the first slave, Entry No. 1, will be introduced.”
As the slightly overweight host announced, a well-built man dressed in a ‘slave garment’ stepped onto the ‘auction stage.’
“This man is Urt, who made a name for himself in a mercenary group. He became a slave after failing to pay the penalty for an incomplete mission, but his combat skills are unquestionable…” the host continued with the product description.
“Now, let us proceed with the ‘quality check.'”
As announced, Urt swiftly removed his ‘slave garment,’ leaving him completely naked.
He had a strong-willed, sharp gaze, a hooked nose, and thick lips—a distinctly masculine face. His chest muscles, extending from his thick neck, were well-defined. Despite being watched by many bidders, his member stood erect, pointing upwards.
“Let’s begin the auction. Starting bid is 100 gold coins (equivalent to 10 million yen).”
“150 gold coins.”
“160 gold coins.” The bidding continued, and eventually, he was sold for 200 gold coins to a wealthy-looking merchant.
The second entry was a coquettish beauty, sold for 150 gold coins to a man who appeared to be a noble’s agent. The third was a handsome boy, likely pre-pubescent, sold for 210 gold coins to a middle-aged woman resembling a socialite.
Next was my entry, Yuria’s turn.
Yuria was a ‘Level 2 Slave’ acquired by the Raymond Trading Company about half a year ago for 50 gold coins. Including food and education costs, the total expenses amounted to around 70 gold coins. Adding a 30-gold-coin profit for Raymond Trading Company, the starting bid was set at a confident 100 gold coins. This price was discussed and decided with Gaspar beforehand.
“Now, the fourth slave, Entry No. 4, will be introduced.”
As the slightly overweight host announced Yuria’s turn, scattered applause and cheers arose from the audience.
Yuria appeared from the stage’s wing, her blue hair hanging straight down. Despite her slender, somewhat underwhelming figure, she exuded an oddly alluring aura as she walked onto the auction stage. She fidgeted nervously under the bidders’ gazes, which somehow made her even more endearing. It was hard to imagine that her true personality was serious and straightforward.
“This slave girl is from the renowned Raymond Trading Company.”
The introduction of the seller immediately caught me off guard. Previous entries hadn’t mentioned the seller, and now the audience erupted into cheers, significantly raising the attention on Yuria. Clearly, the ‘Raymond Trading Company’ brand carried significant weight.
“Her name is Yuria, aged 16, and, of course, she is a virgin. As you can see, she is both beautiful and talented, hailing from a knightly family and skilled in swordsmanship…”
The product description of Yuria was so flattering that even I, listening from the wings, was blushing.
“Now, the long-awaited ‘quality check.'”
As the host announced the ‘quality check,’ Yuria cast a sultry glance at the audience, swaying her hips seductively as she slowly lifted her ‘slave garment.’ The garment was thin, with minimal fabric covering her body, barely reaching mid-thigh.
Yuria wriggled her hips as she lifted the hem with both hands, gradually revealing her legs, followed by her delicate pubic hair and labia. Although her labia were already moist, the distance from the audience likely made this imperceptible. Next, her cute navel, slender waist, and small but perky breasts with erect nipples were revealed, leaving her completely naked. She spread her legs slightly and pushed out her chest, assuming the ‘quality check’ pose. It was a mix of desperation and cuteness, enough to make even me, who had witnessed her ‘slave training,’ feel overwhelmed. The men in the audience were equally captivated, their eyes bloodshot.
“Let’s begin the auction. Starting bid is 100 gold coins (equivalent to 10 million yen).”
“200 gold coins!” A middle-aged man immediately doubled the bid.
“I bid 250 gold coins!” This time, a chubby, flashily dressed man on the right chimed in without hesitation.
The bidding continued in small increments, and ultimately, Yuria was sold for 295 gold coins (equivalent to 29.5 million yen) to a prosperous-looking merchant. Perhaps Yuria would become his ‘sex slave,’ either as a mistress or a concubine.
After descending from the stage, Yuria was dressed in a slightly oversized dress prepared by her new master. She was then marked with a ‘curse seal’ by a magician who seemed to have been dispatched for the ‘Slave Auction.’ If branding or tattooing had been involved, I would have used my ‘mental magic’ to guide the ‘curse seal,’ but it turned out to be unnecessary.
I received 280 gold coins from the auction’s accountant after deducting taxes and transaction fees, along with the necessary documents.
As I was about to leave the ‘Slave Auction’ venue, I was called from behind.
“Are you the young master of Raymond Trading Company who entered Yuria?”
Turning around, I saw the man who had won Yuria standing there.
“Yes, I’m Hal Raymond, the seller. Can I help you?”
I braced myself for a potential complaint.
“I wanted to thank you for helping me acquire such a wonderful maiden. Do you have a moment?”
“Of course. Thank you for purchasing a slave from Raymond Trading Company.”
Afterward, I was led to a café corner, where we chatted over black tea. The man introduced himself as Joshua Kahn, a political merchant who dealt directly with royalty and nobles across various countries.
Regarding Yuria, he mentioned that he would treat her as a mistress for now, but if things went well, he might even free her and marry her. It seemed Yuria’s future as a noble’s wife depended on her efforts, but we had done our part to assist.
With the slave trading business finally concluded, I left the ‘Slave Auction’ venue and returned straight to Raymond Trading Company. I reported to Gaspar, handed over the 280 gold coins and documents, and marked the job as complete.
I decided to later commend Tirna and Kirika for their work in Yuria’s ‘slave training.’
