The Auction

“The identity of this high-ranking undead we are selling is currently unknown! However, as you can see, the purity of the demonic energy contained in this head is unmistakably that of a high-ranking undead! We cannot determine what it once was, but if you make proper use of this beautiful, perfectly preserved head as a medium…….”

The auctioneer swept his gaze across the audience and smiled greedily, stoking their avarice.

“That means you could command this powerful high-ranking undead as your familiar! Those in the know will understand, but a high-ranking undead can be resurrected at any time, even after being decapitated, so long as the conditions are met! This incredible item could change the balance of power in District 7! We’ll start the bidding at 500 million won!”

Waaaaah-!

Exclamations erupted throughout the audience at the auctioneer’s encouragement.

Before the excitement could die down, Lumina raised her hand.

“600 million.”

That was how it began.

“The gentleman over there has bid 700 million won!”

“The beautiful lady from earlier bid 800 million……. Before I could even finish speaking, she raised the bid again! Yes, one billion! Excellent. From this point on, we’ll raise the bids by 200 million won at a time.”...
