Rise of the Legendary Emperor

Chapter 14: Auction is about to begin

The auction hall was divided into two sections, the VIP area, and the common area.

The VIP area located on the balcony under it was the public area, the public area had curved rows of seats so everyone could able to see the stage.

Don and Uncle Dior entered the public area to see the crowd of people buzzing like a beehive. Luckily the duo could see some free seats scattered around ahead of them.

Don led Uncle Dior and headed for the front row so he could get a good look at the people on the balcony. He was more interested in the people on the balcony rather than the stage in front of him.

There were not so many people on the balcony as in the public area, the VIP area was covered in glass and had the best view of the stage. Don saw some people who he guessed as nobles or wealthy people by the way they dressed through the glass. They were enjoying drinks and some fruits occasionally Don witnessed some noble youths playing with a woman.

The stage was screened by a red curtain made of more elegant cloth, and part of the people was still entering the area while some of them were seeking a good place to seat themselves.

"The auction is about to begin" a magically enhanced voice reverberated throughout the hall.

(A few hours ago in Minister Brian's manor)

Minister Brian was sitting before a massive table filled with various delicacies, he was stuffing his mouth with everything he could take.

Rosaline poised on the corner of the dining room and looked at Brian with disgust. The scene in front of her resembled a fat pig eating manure. She was only protecting him because of the capitol asked her to but she soon found out later she came to the slave city, the one needed defending are the people here from Minister Brian.

He does every sin and crime in the world such as ****, steal, gamble, drink and so on so forth if you tell a name of the crime, Rosaline know he would have done that already, in her point of view he was a walking talking pile of shit and the best in the bad.

Rosaline not in any sense knew why the capitol wishes this man protected or even alive but she recognized it's her and her team's duty to protect him and that's what she's going to do.

Eventually, Minister Brian had his fill and washed his mouth and dusted away the food crumbs on his black silk robe.

"Rosaline lets go" he smirked and head out to jump in his caravan in the front yard.

Rosaline followed Minister brian and was greeted by four people. They were Rosalin's team sent with her to protect Minister Brian from the capitol.

The four people in front of her were young two of them were women while the other two were men.

One of the women wore a green mage robe with decorated staff in one hand and a book on the other. She had light-toned skin and silver hair. She was not incredibly beautiful but she had likable features and a bright smile on her face. She was the team's Healer Aster low-level great master magi.

Beside Aster was a dark-haired woman in tight blue leather pants and tops. She had a long black bow on her hands and a quiver with magical arrows on her back. She had light brown skin and a stern look.

She was the team's Archer Chase, also a low-level great master magi.

The two men looking at Rosalin were twins, they had blonde hair and a well-built body and blue eyes and were six feet tall. In their hands, one had a big shield while the other had a long sword and they wore blue capes, grey chainmail and plate armors like knights.

The one with the shield was Alexander the elder brother and the one with the sword was Willian the younger brother,mid-level great master magi, they were the warriors of this group who fought and defended in the frontline.

The four of them were curtsied a bow in respect facing Rosaline as she nodded in response.

"Alexander Willian you two drive the carriage Aster go inside the carriage and stay with Minister Brian Chase fly on your broon maintain a following distance from the carriage"

They didn't question her orders but followed them like good soldiers and Rosalin stepped on her magical broom to follow the carriage with Chase.

The Carriage Minister Brian using were pulled by four pure white pegasuses, they were extremely rare magical beasts and only wealthy nobles and royal family used them to pull their carriages. This showed Minister Brian's wealth and influence to the people around him.

Not only the pegasuses but the carriage itself was built to show extravagant, it was embedded with magical runes to make it lighter and provide comfort to the passenger.

Alexander and Willian hopped on the driver's seat and Alexander took the reins and the pegasuses galloped to the Auction house.

After a comfortable journey Minister Brian reached the Thousand Arms Auction house, Rosaline and her team were very vigilant during the travel they never slack off even for a second.

The manager who Don met before was waiting in the entrance to welcome Minister Brian with a beautiful woman beside him.

"Welcome Minister Brian I hope the journey was a comfortable one"

Minister Brian laughed and laid eyes on the woman beside the manager,

"Thanks to my new carriage and my guards the journey was safe and pleasant one"

"I'm glad to hear that where are my manners? Come, Minister Brian lets go inside " the manager winked at the woman to escort Minister Brian inside.

The woman took seductively took Brian's hands and put around her waists and accompanied Brian inside while Rosaline and her team closely shadowed him.

"Mr.Xing what the special today?"

Minister Brian licked his lips while asking the manager.

"Minister Brian you knew we won't reveal anything before the auction"

"Come on it's me"

The manager Xing knew refusing to answer shall only cause more problems.

"Let's just say you will be very eager to buy, I hope you brought your purse, Minister Brian"

"Humph who's going to compete with me huh?"

"Minister Brian normally they won't but today we have something very very rare so the noble families do their best to get their hands on the merchandise"

Every word of the latter part piqued Minister Brian's interest

"Alright let's get the show on the road shall we"

Minister Brian rubbed his hands and walked towards the VIP area with the beauty on his arms.
