Dungeon Maker

Chapter 181: Extraordinary event (1)

Yong-ho’s decision was as fast and simple, as always.

“Let’s go back.”

Catalina pricked her ears. Kaiwan regrettably put down the catalog of the free auction house she was reading earnestly, but she did not object because he was right.

The resonance between the sins was confirmed. Moreover, the King of Fury was staying in the auction house.

It was highly likely that the King of Fury did not recognize that Yong-ho was the King of Greed. However, it was just a probability. If the king ran into him again, he might think differently this time.

‘The King of Gluttony.’

It was the King of Gluttony that Yong-ho had to avoid more than the King of Fury.

The King of Gluttony had already participated in the auction, wearing a ghost mask. Even at this moment, it was highly likely that the king might be rummaging through the catalog somewhere in the auction house.

“We gained a lot here, didn’t we?”

“Well, that’s correct, but...”

Pouting her lips, Kaiwan pulled Catalina’s tail, who was sitting next to her. Flinching a bit, Catalina hurriedly glanced at Yong-ho for help, but he ignored it, pretending not to have noticed it because he found her frowning cutely rather than trying to check Kaiwan’s mood.

Although Yong-ho’s party didn’t buy anything at the auction house, they gained a lot like Yong-ho said.

Yong-ho learned about the resonance between the sins and recognized the feelings of the King of Fury and the King of Gluttony. Now he could recognize the two anytime, anywhere.

Yong-ho also confirmed the growth of his power. He could roughly size up his place in the demon world.

‘Well, Kaiwan had an opportunity to meet Sitri here...’

Nodding at once, he looked toward Sitri without hesitation.

Well at ease, Sitri said, “Are you going to leave right away?”

“No, I may encounter them on the way to the carriage. Let me leave when the main auction ends.”

It was obvious that he would be noticed if he left in the middle of the auction.

Sitri smiled softly as if she liked his answer.

“What a good judgment befitting my dear client! Okay, let’s do that.”

After pausing for a moment, she got up from her seat and approached Kaiwan and Catalina.

“Cute client, do you have any item you really want to have?”

“Sitri?” Kaiwan asked in confusion. It wasn’t because of her question. It was because she could infer a certain fact from her question.

Sitri sat next to Kaiwan and pointed at herself elegantly.

“I’m going to stay here at the auction house. I can meet and talk with Samael. As you know, I’m a big shot of this Dungeon Market.”

Sitri was not from the Mammon family. So, she had no reason to go back with them. Even if she stayed here and encountered the king, she would have no problem at all.

“Oh, of course, it doesn’t mean that I’m going to give you a free gift. I’m going to get it back from my dear client. Of course, you don’t have to pay for my service.”

Sitri again drew their attention to the auction items. Kaiwan and Catalina looked at Yong-ho before responding right away.

Yong-ho approved with a nod, “Choose it one by one.”

Kaiwan yelled in delight quietly and opened the catalog. Then she pointed to one item.

“Okay, let me choose this one.”

It was the devil’s nails that she had been fidgeting with at the free auction house.

Slightly narrowing her eyes, Sitri said, “Hmm, you have to get close to the other person and even hurt him with this, but the more demanding the conditions are, the stronger the curse becomes. Sounds like a good choice.”

“You agree, right?”

As if she was happy about Sitri siding with her, Kaiwan was so excited. Catalina, who was waiting for her turn nervously, also opened the catalog.

“I want this one.”

It was a pendant in the shape of a ghost face. It was impressive because it was gray like a piece of plaster.

“It’s an item that strengthens the attributes of darkness. I think this is also a very good thing for our escort knight girl, but...”

She blurred at the end of her words, then turned her eyes at Yong-ho. With her shoulders drooping, she said, as if to blame him a bit, “Dear client, I just wonder what the hell you did to these beautiful ladies because they wanted only combat tools like this. As you know there are lots of beautiful accessories here, too.”

Kaiwan just grinned at that, while Catalina signaled to Sitri with her eyes that he didn’t do anything wrong to her.

Instead of making any excuses, Yong-ho read her thoughts and said duly, “Sitri, can I have one, too?”

“Don’t beat around the bush. Please answer me.”

A little smile was on her face. He spoke without opening the catalog like Catalina or Kaiwan.

Not all items for auction here were displayed in the catalog.

“I would like to obtain a wizard-based familiar spirit capable of necromancing.”

“What? Don’t you want an elf spirit?”

“Sitri!”

Sitri laughed heartily again. She replied by burying his back on the sofa, “Hmm, great. If you can’t get one at this auction, I’ll recommend one from the Dungeon Market catalog. Maybe you like the undead series, right? Like Lich.”

“Well, yes as long as I have the funds.”

The combination of Death Knight and Lich, which he had been longing for for a long time.

Even if it was impossible, the necromancer was useful in many ways. It was a familiar spirit that was worth obtaining even with more money than expected.

At that moment, there rang a soft bell. Sitri wriggled her charming eyebrows at the sound echoing from quite a distance.

“It’s time for the main auction to start. Shall we move now?”

Sitri reached out to Yong-ho without getting up. Then Kaiwan pulled Catalina’s tail to make her sit down again, who was about to get up casually, then looked at Yong-ho like Sitri did.

“Let’s go.”

For peace in the family, Yong-ho did not escort anybody, and Sitri burst into laughter.

<hr />

“It’s impossible he went back already...”

Although the soft ringing of the bell was beautiful, she didn’t feel that way.

Yacha woman Kirtimuka, who was the right-hand woman and friend of Dhritarashtra, King of Fury, looked around again sharply. She could not find the man with a lion mask anywhere in the auction house.

“No problem, Kirtimuka. I just ran into him by chance anyway.”

“But you still...”

Kirtimuka bit her lower lip and looked down at her master, King of Fury.

Although she couldn’t see her master’s expression because of that ugly ghost mask, obviously she must have been quite disappointed. Just a few minutes ago, she looked around more earnestly than Kirtimuka.

Kirtimuka felt really regrettable about it. Of course, she didn’t really expect anything from the masked man. Although Kirtimuka teased her by saying she fell in love with him at first sight, it was just nonsense in the first place.

What Kirtimuka wished was just her master’s slight deviation from her daily routines. She just wanted her master to get clear of the mess for a moment because she was overly concerned about everything due to her thoughtful and warm-hearted personality. In other words, all she wanted was just a little happening that could make her master reminisce over it with a smile.

Finally, even the bell stopped ringing. Shortly afterward, the main auction began.

Those who were talking to each other in the dark auction house stopped talking to each other and fixed their eyes on the stage.

“Let me get out for some fresh air. If they auction Soma or Amrita, you must buy it.”

The King of Fury acted exactly the opposite. After telling her attendant not to follow her, the king left the auction house.

‘No, he is not here, either.’

She rolled her eyes again on her way out, but she could not see him.

The King of Fury pouted her lips. It seemed that she was unconsciously expecting to meet him again a lot.

‘Well, he made me feel better anyway.’

She didn’t murmur it just to comfort herself. When she came out to the balcony and breathed in the cold night air, she felt like that before she knew it.

When did she think of a man like this for the last time? Wasn’t it the first time since she admired the magnificent figure of the King of Fury when she first saw him as a child?

The more she thought about it, the funnier she felt about her own behavior before the start of this auction. She could not understand why she was disappointed not to see him again.

The King of Fury took off her mask. It was the rule to use a mask in the auction house, but since everyone entered the auction house to participate in the main auction anyway, she didn’t have to worry.

Her white, soft cheeks protected under the mask were exposed to the cold night air. She felt even refreshed because of the cold sensation on her skin.

When she returned after the auction was over, she would be faced with an extreme confrontation. She had to bide her time, watching closely how the battle in the north unfolds or how the King of Gluttony acted. It was something she really hated. She wished they just started a war.

‘Oh, no, what am I thinking now? Take it easy, Dhritarashtra. You can’t kill so many innocent people just to satisfy your frustration.’

Rebuking herself like that, she got the complicated thoughts out of her mind and looked up at the night sky. Her heart was pounding.

“Uh?”
