Chapter 218: Uxtan Slave Auction (2)

"Okay, we will now hold the 999th Grand Slave Auction!" Lan shouted into a glowing white stone that resembled a microphone. 

"As you can see, we already placed the bracelets on them so they can not escape, and their statues and titles have already been changed as well, so… Please enjoy yourselves and get yourself one of the highest quality slaves in the entire kingdom right here!" Lan shouts. 

Changed my status and title? 

"Wait, what the fuck is this?" I mutter to myself as soon as I opened my status.

…

What the hell… My skills and equipment are locked? Is it because of this stupid bracelet? And my equipment is gone- holy shit... my rings... my fucking wedding rings... 

Slight panic set in, but it soon dissipated as soon as I saw the [Slave Ring] didn't suppress my stats. Only my skills, body modifications, and equipment... and of course, my wedding rings were gone as well. 

But, there was one problem… how come I was able to use [Godly Senses: 8]? 

If all my skills were suppressed, then they would've deactivated, but clearly, they were still active, as I could see with my eyes closed. 

But before I could think any deeper, Lan spoke up with his voice echoing through the room. 

"Okay! Let's start this auction off with the cheapest to the most expensive!" 

Lan points to the end of the row, opposite my side, making a slight grin appear on my face. This meant that I was the most expensive, with Bridget just behind me. 

"First, we'll start with this unnamed human! I honestly don't know the stats as the head alchemist has failed at recreating another [Inspect] stone, but it doesn't matter as we know her background! 

She was born and raised as a slave and specialized in fighting! But that doesn't take away from her beauty! And this first slaves' starting price is… 10 Gold! A pretty low price if I'd have to say so myself!" Lan shouts into the glowing stone. 

Hoh… that's like dirt cheap compared to my kingdom. The slaves that I was informed of went for about 2 obsidian… or maybe that's because there was a scarcity of them as my kingdom had pretty close bonds with everybody. 

Suddenly everybody started to raise sticks with white circles on them with different prices. The price kept rising, blowing way past its original 10 gold, which seemed to make Lan's smile grow even wider. 

Ah, what a fucking scammer… This girl is definitely ordinary, but as this auction seems to be the shit, everybody will assume everything here is high quality… the perfect chance to make a quick buck with very cheap items. 

"You in the black tuxedo! 300 gold going once! Going twice! And… SOLD!" Lan shouts before levitating over to the human and leading her down the stairs gently and almost gracefully. 

Damn… I might've fallen for him if I didn't have memories of my previous life. 

The slave then had her chains unwrapped before leading down a hallway where the clinking of chains could be heard. And the man in the black tuxedo with a rabbit mask exited his seat and walked down a separate hallway. 

"It seems you are satisfied with your spendings but keep her safe otherwise; you'll get her stolen!" Lan says with a smile as he levitates out of the hallway. 

Soon he floated above us once again and began to list off the next human who definitely didn't seem like a fighter. 

"Next! We have another nameless slave who was born and raised as a slave! She has no other talent besides warming beds, but her beauty is through the roof, so her starting price will be… 15 gold! Pretty reasonable for a sex slave if I had to say so myself!" Lan says. 

Once again, the price raised and raised, eventually hitting 1 diamond coin, which I assumed to be the equivalent of gold coins. 

So diamonds aren't that rare in this world cause [Earth Magic] exists… It makes sense, I guess. 

"Sold to the woman in the beautiful dress right there! I don't know why you would want her, but everybody has their own tastes, so that I won't complain!" Lan shouts as he unwraps the slave's chains. 

I don't sense any lewd intent from her, so maybe she's just going to be a toy for entertainment or something to torture?

The next few humans were bought by one older man who had obvious lecherous intent, which also seemed to disgust Lan, who cringed at the sight of him licking his lips. 

After finding out they locked my skills this entire time, I wasn't sitting still, especially after finding out my wedding rings had disappeared.

I used my overwhelming stats to chip at the bracelet from a weird angle as my hands were chained in front of me. 

Tuk 

After a few minutes of Lan rambling on and me picking at the bracelet with my nail, I finally managed to unclip it, causing it to fall to the ground. 

Thankfully, it wasn't that loud, so only Bridget heard it, and to not take any more risks, I kicked it up with the top of my foot and used [Grand Jewelers Perfect State]. 

Even though it is magical equipment, it is still a bracelet in the end, so I was able to manipulate it around my wrist once more and completely seal it. 

Tuk 

The bracelet clipped onto my wrist, and I inspected it to make sure my hypothesis worked. 

[Equipment - Bracelet] 

I'm way too smart. 

A smile crept onto my face as soon as I saw the original slave-making bracelet turn into a normal piece of jewelry that was too bland for my taste. 

"Hey, you want me to unclip the slave bracelet?" I whisper to Bridget beside me as I could now use skills once again. 

But just like always, she ignored me. 

"Oh, whispering to each other now, are we? It seems you girls don't know your place yet," Lan says, levitating down and landing right in front of us. 

For some reason, Bridget began to glare harshly at Lan, whose smile just got wider. 

"Well, well, well… Look who we have here! Isn't this the old knight captain that was the king's right-hand man- er, the right-hand woman, I guess!" Lan shouts into the stone, causing it to reverberate through the room. 

The audience then planted hundreds of their eyes right on Bridget, who displayed obvious discomfort but most importantly, her eyes were filled with rage towards Lan. 

"We meet again, Rosakin," Lan says with what seemed to be a genuine smile. 

Creepy…
