Chapter 190 - Follow You

"!!!" Every single person in the auction room was shocked. Yale and Albert had been in the discussion for a while, so their faces were obviously planted on everyone's brain.

But more importantly, the reason why Renee became a slave was none other than him. Because she chose to sacrifice the sacred duel, the royal family lost their power.

However, Yale didn't care about it anymore. On the one hand, he wanted to raise the bid only to 420,000 coins to match the number, but he was afraid that the people around here ganged up on him, so he chose to use these 500,000 coins to deal with it.

With a calm expression, Yale asked, "So, what's the result? Any more bids?"

"Ah?!" The middle-aged man's body trembled for a second as his focus shifted back to the auction. "500,000 coins going once!"

"Going twice!"

"Going thrice!"

"Sold."

Because of the pressure coming from Yale, the man couldn't help but end the auction as soon as possible. This made Duke Heista angry because he was too shocked to stop it.

"Wait! Hold off the auction right now! This is a plan to devour the royal family. We can't have Her Highness Renee to be captured by him!"

Yale had seen this coming, so he already came to the stage to meet Renee, ignoring everyone's intention.

"I have come." Yale smiled.

"But according to the sacred duel, I can't bother you anymore." Renee shook her head, refusing to come to him in honor of their bet.

"I'm the one who is bothering you. Or do you not want it?" Yale shook his head, correcting her words. "I have been planning to do this after that duel. I talked to my teacher and got the approval, but I wasn't strong enough to protect you at that time. So, I promised that I would graduate first before meeting you… That is after learning a 6-Star Spell.

"Unfortunately, they reduced you to a slave first and I could only use 5-Star Spell now. Hence, those 500,000 gold coins can be considered the bride price and now, you have no relationship with the Gluttony Kingdom anymore.

"Isn't this fine? We will be able to be together all the time, touring around the world. That's why, Renee… will you follow me and meet my Teacher? We will ask for Teacher's blessing for our marriage." Yale extended his hands with a smile on his face. His expression was genuine and his confession came from the bottom of his heart.

This might not be an appropriate time to tell her, but he wanted to explain everything first.

Renee's eyes glazed as tears gradually fell on her cheeks. The situation might not be like what she imagined, but this confession was like a dream came true.

At first, she had prepared to be someone's toy and dedicated her life to that person to improve the Gluttony Kingdom. But that thought vanished when Yale appeared before her.

Looking at Yale's sincere face made her heart move. She subconsciously nodded her head. "Un. I want to go!"

Yale smiled and immediately carried her in the princess carry since she was still shackled by those cuffs.

"Don't think you can go anywhere." Duke Heista finally came to the stage.

"You are a 7-Star Magician… But it doesn't mean you can defeat me." Yale snorted while squinting his eyes, activating his bonk eyes. "Especially in that condition."

There was pink energy next to his Magic Power, so he knew Duke Heista was horny. In that case, none of his magic should be able to harm him.

"I can't defeat you? My body might not be the best, but I still have enough power to destroy you. The moment I defeat him, prepare to capture him!" Duke Heista ordered the guards that surrounded the stage.

"Are you trying to wage war against my Lust Kingdom, Duke Heista?" The brothel manager narrowed her eyes, appearing next to Yale. "We have won with the right way. Yet, you tried to annul that deal and act shamelessly."

She then turned to the middle-aged man and asked, "Is this what your auction house wants?"

"…" The middle-aged man had no answer to that question. On the right side, there was one of the biggest power in the Gluttony Kingdom, Duke Heista. On the other side stood Yale and the Lust Kingdom.

It was impossible to choose.

"There's no need to choose. Don't forget that you are still in the Gluttony Kingdom. When I go back to your brothel, I'll make sure that I'll treat you well." His tone became harsher for the last sentence, indirectly implying how he would destroy the brothel later.

Even the brothel manager frowned. She took a deep breath and stated, "In that case, we will have no choice but to convey this intention to Her Majesty."

"If you can that is…" Duke Heista raised both hands and formed numerous bats from his magic power.

The manager immediately waved her left hand and produced a pink colored smoke, using it as a smokescreen to escape.

"You can't escape from me." Duke Heista snorted and forced all his bats to stop them.

"Bonk…" Yale pointed his palm toward those bats and poured his Magic Power. "Dragon."

A huge bat suddenly emerged out of nowhere and destroyed all the bats as long as they came in contact.

"What?!" Duke Heista widened his eyes, never expecting to see Yale destroying his bats that easily.

Anti-Horny Step.

Yale suddenly appeared in front of Duke Heista and hit him on the face.

"Bonk!"

The bonk force generated from the bat sent the duke flying, allowing them a few seconds to escape.

"Gah!"

"Duke!"

The people were dumbstruck. Even though Duke Heista had that fat body, he was still a 7-Star Magician. He wasn't an opponent a 10 years old kid could handle.

Yet, the reality was different. Not only did Yale show them his control over two elements, but he also showed his power.

In other words, the current Yale might be able to defeat a 7-Star Magician.

Even the archbishop, who didn't want to intervene with their problem, started furrowing his eyebrows. If Yale was allowed to grow up, there might be a huge consequence.

He might become so powerful that no one could stop. If he laid his eyes on the Holy Kingdom, who had been opposing the demons, the kingdom would be destroyed.

Unfortunately, he was still too late. Yale had escaped right after hitting the duke. He didn't want to waste more time in this place since it would become more dangerous.

Outside, Yale sighed and apologized. "Sorry. I was wrong…"

The brothel manager knew why he apologized. If Yale didn't open his mask, everything wouldn't happen. They could smoothly get Renee and go back.

But this time, his impulsive act created this huge chaos that might lead to a war against the Gluttony Kingdom.

However, she couldn't do anything since Yale was still too young. It was normal for a young man to act impulsive, especially because of his childhood sweetheart. No matter how mature Yale was, he was bound to do something foolish sooner or later.

And the situation turned out to be worse than they expected.

The brothel manager sighed and said, "Never mind that. I have received the instruction from Her Majesty. We'll support you no matter what happens. For now, you should head to the Night Demon Hill to regroup with us. I need to go back to the brothel to bring back my colleagues and the transmission mirror."

"Understood." Yale nodded with a serious expression.

After saying all those words, she immediately changed direction, preparing to retreat with the other succubus.

Meanwhile, Renee had a sad expression, thinking everything was her fault. "I'm sorry. If I—"

Before she finished, Yale stated with a calm tone. "It was my fault. There's no need for you to apologize."

"No. I'm not talking about the auction. If I could control my desire better, I wouldn't visit you that day. If we didn't have that sacred duel, this wouldn't happen." Renee shook her head, putting all the blame on her.

"I was simply too weak at that time. This problem can be resolved by power."

"But power can't solve anything."

"That's simply because you don't have enough power. I will keep getting stronger and stronger so that in the future, I will have the absolute power that everyone has no choice but to follow me." Yale gritted his teeth.

Renee was surprised when she heard this thought. She never expected Yale to have this kind of confidence.

If it was before, there was no one who would believe in him. However, just a few months after training under his teacher, Yale could become this strong. If they let him grow for another few years, Yale's words might become reality.

"This time… I promise I'll do everything right. So, trust me." Yale raised his head and saw the gate in sight. Since the duke needed to chase after him first, there was no way the soldiers knew what happened.

Hence, he ran through the gate without stopping.

"Stop!"

"Who are you?"

"You need to register yourself first!"

Yale snorted and slipped past them, not caring about their shouts. And because of his speed, he managed to come out of the city pretty easily.

As if celebrating this action, Yale said, "We're going to be free. Our lives shall be determined by ourselves. Will you follow me, Renee?"

Renee saw the resolve in Yale's eyes. She had mixed feelings about this. However, her mouth couldn't help but say the desire hidden in her heart.. "Yes. I'll follow you!"
