To Hell With Being A Saint, I’m A Doctor Chapter 458

Episode 458 Military Gathering (1)

Since the auction didn’t take place until late in the evening, Ray and the others waited for the sun to set while eating snacks in the market or keeping an eye on the information guild’s whereabouts.

Finally, when the sun had set and evening approached, they went to the auction house.

The stout man who had been watching in front recognized them and stepped aside.

“…Seat 17 is empty.”

“Thank you.”

After speaking with a high enough voice, the man lowered his head.

I passed the entrance that looked like an ordinary house and went inside.

After going up the second floor and going down to the basement again, the auction house I saw last time comes into view.

For some reason, there are more people than last time.

Ray glanced at them once.

‘They must have smelled it.’

He pretends to have come to enjoy the auction in his own way, but when he sees someone rolling his eyes every time he enters, the answer comes out.

In addition, he even put on a red robe that others wouldn’t do.

You wouldn’t notice them because there were so many of them, but if you looked at them consciously, you could say they stood out.

“excuse me. Are you with them by any chance?”

A mercenary with scars on his face looked at Soonbok, Mien Moros, and Mace and asked.

Ray, who met their eyes for a moment, explained it insignificantly.

“They are my slaves.”

At his words, everyone including Soonbok frowned.

However, I can’t refute the word slave, so I just keep my mouth shut.

The mercenary man stroked his beard, examined them carefully, and agreed.

“You are definitely acting like a beggar. All right. Have a good time.”

I feel like a beggar when I hear that I feel like a beggar.

Seeing the back of the mercenary moving away, Soonbok raised his spirits.

– …I’m going to go to the bathroom for a while.

“All right, sit still. There’s nothing good about making a fuss.”

Leaving the trembling Soonbok alone, I looked at the platform.

Shortly thereafter, a masked presenter walks out.

The moderator covered his entire body with a leather robe that might be used by wizards.

It seems that he is also concerned about the series of events spreading among the slave traders.

“Thank you for waiting. The product I’m going to show you today is…”

A woman walks out from outside the tent.

Blood was faintly visible on the tattered clothes.

She was a normal-looking woman who was neither pretty nor ugly.

The moderator took one look at the woman, then turned his attention back to the auctioneers.

“As you can see, she is a human woman. However, since I have a criminal record for killing the previous owner, I will try to sell it at the lowest possible price. This is the first lyre.”

A slave who kills his master is considered the worst among slaves.

The price couldn’t come out well.

“There are twenty silver coins.”

As if he didn’t like the price range, the second collection started right away.

But no matter how many times I tried, the results didn’t improve that much.

Twenty-two silver coins in the second harp.

The third harp sold for twenty-five silver coins.

There was no crazy person in the auction house who would buy such a slave for a large sum of money.

“The slave will return to the person in seat 17.”

Ray bought even that.

I didn’t intend to save the slaves who committed crimes, but I don’t think they became slaves because they liked them too.

It is common for children from slums to be abducted and enslaved.

Judging from the fact that his actions and eyes were not imbued with murder, the rumor that he killed the owner must have been framed by someone.

The woman shuddered and approached Ray.

“Please take good care of me…”

“Please take good care of me too.”

I smiled and asked for a handshake, but since this was the first time this had happened, the woman who had been bruised for a moment hurriedly wiped her hand on her clothes and held it.

Looking at that figure, Mien muttered disapprovingly.

“Even if the treatment is different, can it be so different?”

He makes a ‘huh’ sound and shakes his head.

Either that or not.

Ray was absorbed in the auction again.

* * *

The second and third slaves passed by.

Soon, the last slave was auctioned off, and a man with a sturdy body came out.

It was so big that for a moment I mistook it for a baby ogre.

Both as a worker and as an escort.

There were not a few people who coveted a man who seemed to have many uses.

Parchments were handed out here and there, and the final collection amounted to fifty gold coins.

When the auction ended and the auctioneers left one by one, Ray waited until the end.

I have participated in two auctions so far.

However, the slave statue was nowhere to be seen.

Usually, slaves are dealt with by slave traders, and slave traders also explain the race and back story of slaves.

In other words, the slave trader guarantees the identity of the slave.

That is an unspoken rule in the slave market.

However, wouldn’t it be ironic that the moderator was handling all the work that the slave trader had to do?

At first, I thought the slave traders were hiding their identities, but I changed my mind after participating in the second auction.

‘If the moderator himself is a slave trader, everything will be explained.’

Thinking so, he waited patiently for the moderator to approach.

Did you sit for thirty minutes?

As expected, the host came.

“Did you enjoy the auction today?”

speaks naturally

“I got a good slave.”

Originally, it was forbidden to speak out during the auction, but now that the auction was over and everyone had left, it didn’t seem to matter.

“The auction ended with the last slave… Do you have other business?”

Seeing the presenter showing no signs of wariness, Ray decided to take a look at him.

He looked around once and spoke in a cold voice.

“I came to deliver the instructions of this room.”

this room.

At that, the presenter frowned.

“Excuse me… what is that room?”

Since his face is not visible thanks to the mask, it is impossible to tell whether he is panicking or really ignorant.

Ray took one more step.

“Since it was an urgent matter, I couldn’t contact Miyeon. Instead of the messenger who originally contacted you, I will deliver instructions from now on.”

It was a word thrown with the intention of trying it out, but the moderator started to react little by little.

“…I thought the messenger would never change… did something happen?”

When the fish he had been waiting for was caught, Ray exclaimed in delight.

“You dare not know.”

“I apologize.”

While scooping, Ray decided to scoop out one more.

Pretending not to know, he stood up from his seat and spoke with weight.

“If the slave trader is busy, seeing as he even hosts the auction, this room must have been indifferent to you.”

“no. I also received the protection of the black room and settled in the royal capital, so my income improved. It is all thanks to him.”

There was a twinkle in Ray’s eyes.

As expected, it seems that the moderator himself was a slave trader.

Feeling better, Ray took out a platinum coin from his pocket and threw it.

“This is my heart. Let them use them freely.”

Platinum coins rolling across the floor soon stopped at the slave trader’s feet.

“Thank you!”

When he bent down to give the platinum coin.

Ray grabbed him by the scruff of the neck and threw him to the floor.

“Aagh! Why are you like that!”

The slave trader, full of fear, forgot even the pain and jumped to his feet.

Then, there stood a young man with a sinister grin.

“Heh heh. Were you also a slave trader? I looked for it for a while and it didn’t come out, so I thought about it, and it turned out to be me.”

When the peerless young man raised the corner of his mouth, the slave trader’s spine went cold.

“So you’ve cut me off!”

“I’m glad you noticed now.”

“How dare you do this to me and you’re safe! I am under the protection of the Black Room!”

“It’s none of my business whether you get protection or not. Give me information about the Black Room.”

“If I open my mouth to you, I will be killed by the killer in the black room.”

“If you don’t tell me, I will die now.”

A transparent Aura Blade rose from his hand.

Sword master’s exclusive property.

When the swordsmanship of the one who reached the limit was aimed at the heart, the feeling of intimidation was indescribable.

“Ughhh…”

The slave trader gave up his resistance.

If you try to resist the sword master, you are only destined to be captured anyway.

Ray’s hand went to his shoulder blade.

That moment.

Along with the burning pain, the sensation of insects crawling over the slave trader.

“Aagh!”

The pain recurred for several minutes, then suddenly disappeared the moment he removed his hand.

Mace smirked as he looked at his competitor, the slave trader.

“Keukkeuk. Congratulations on joining the family, Rossell.”

“mace! Apparently, you mentioned the location of the auction house! As a slave trader, the most inappropriate thing to do is to leak information!”

“What use is the law when I am about to die? Now that we’re in the same boat, don’t say too much.”

“It’s the same boat, so who says they’re on the same boat!”

He did not know that he was enslaved.

Well, it will.

What kind of mage would use magic that would turn a person into a slave in an instant?

Even if it was a small catch, it would take two days because of the slave magic circle.

Ray grabbed Roselle and asked again.

“What’s your relationship with the black room?”

‘Do you think I’ll tell you?’ Rosell’s mouth, which was about to say, opened naturally.

“It’s a relationship of some sort. I trade slaves in the royal capital, divert Celia’s attention, or give information about the royal capital, and they protect me. Sometimes people dispatched from the Black Room are disguised as slaves and sent to nobles of their choice.”

It was just as I thought.

Rosell’s heart skipped a beat at the fact that she had opened her mouth like a slave.

“Why am I…”

Ray’s question continued without time to clear up his doubts.

“Which noble family did you send the slave to?”

“…There are only two of them, the Marquis of Veron and the Marquis of Siloth. It was very recently that slaves began to be sent to noble families. If you look closely, you’ll find some wandering around the royal palace disguised as maids.”

Did the Black Room begin to invade even the royal family?

If you leave it like this, big things will happen.

In addition, the family of the Marquis of Shilot is the family of the commander of the 7th Knight Ronel.

Even if a large number of aristocratic families that had already rotted away from the Black Room’s attack were purged, it was questionable whether they could completely return to their previous state.

“Tell me all the information you know about the Black Room.”

When Ray gave the order, Rosel’s mouth, which had been biting down on her teeth until her lips were torn and bleeding, opened.

“Queuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuwuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuhh three days later… troops are gathering at the border…”
