Lucy was currently in front of a mirror.
Contrary to her look when she was with Alonso, she had 6 pairs of wings on her back and her eyes were now red.
"…"
She stood in front of the mirror for some seconds until a shadow appeared in the mirror.
"Queen, how rare for you… to contact me so suddenly" Said the shadow.
"Amadeus, where is my sister?" Said Lucy with anger.
The shadow in the mirror smiled.
"Oh her? She is currently waiting for me…"
"In my bed, that is" Said Amadeus with a laugh.
*PUM*
The mirror seemed to shatter as the red eyes of Lucy filled with anger.
"IF YOU DARE TO TOUCH A SINGLE HAIR OF HER, IT WON'T END JUST BY EATING YOUR SOUL!" Said Lucy.
"…" Amadeus knew that he had taken the joke too far and didn't say anything.
"Lucy, don't try anything funny, do you really want to start a war!?" Said Amadeus.
"You and that coward were the ones who started it, you couldn't deal with me, so you attacked my sister!"
"You are not worthy to be called a monarch!"
Amadeus was enraged, however, he knew the limits of his powers.
If he were to fight Lucy… his chances of winning were zero!
"She is fine; she will go to the first circle as we agree on in a couple of days" Said Amadeus.
"Good" Said Lucy.
She retreated her wings and her eyes returned to normal. She then turned and was prepared to leave.
"Lucy, don't forget that her life is my hands" Said Amadeus.
Lucy stopped, and, without turning back, she said
"And you don't forget that you are just an ant in my eyes"
She left the room leaving Amadeus trembling in anger.

A couple of days passed and the day of the party, aka auction had arrived.
Alfonso, Cerberus, Drakini, and Dante were waiting in the hallway.
"I say, Deko said to wait for him here… but that was three hours ago!" Said Cerberus with anger.
"I know" Said Alfonso.
"Sorry, my friends! We are late" A voice came from the hallway.
Alfonso and everyone turned and saw Deko with two girls, each on one arm walking towards them.
"Deko, you are late" Said Alfonso.
"Sorry, sorry, I was having a bit of fun and time flew away~" Said Deko.
Alfonso looked at the playboy in front of him and sighed.
"Come on, your lead" Said Alfonso.
"With pleasure" Said Deko.
The group moved forward to the entrance of the hotel.
There, a familiar face was waiting for them.
"Lei?" Asked Alfonso.
"Alfonso, Dante, you are finally here nya" Said Lei in her human form.
"Lei, how are things inside?" Asked Dante.
"Pretty normal, the monarch does this kind of parties every now and then" Said Lei.
"You know where aren't talking about that party… I am talking about THE party" Said Deko.
"Oh, that nya" Said Lei.
"It's quite amazing nya" Said Lei with a smile.
"There are almost all the powerful demons in the first, second, and third circle there nya" She added.
"So they already came" Said Deko.
"Dante, why would so many demons came to this audition?" Asked Alfonso.
"The audition of the first circle isn't usually so big, as I thought, it's because of the items that I heard about?" Asked Deko.
"Yes nya, the items that are being auditioned are quite amazing this time nya, as for the specifics, I don't know that, however, there are rumors that red gas is going to be auditioned nya" Said Lei.
"Red gas…" Though Alfonso.
"There are a lot of demons in the second and third circle who will do anything for that red gas" Said Deko.
"It's another source of soul power nya, and it can compare to death soul area of upper circles nya" Said Lei.
"Let's go in then" Said Alfonso.
The group entered, however, just as Alfonso, who was at the last, entered, he whispered something to Lei's ear.
"Is she here?"
"She just arrived nya"
With those words, Alfonso nodded and disappeared with the group in the room.
.......................................................................................
The butler looked at the girl in front of him.
She was tall, taller than him, however, she had a youth vibe on her.
Her eyes were purple and her ears pointy and blond short hair.
Her gaze was called as she looked at the butler.
Like how Lion would look at an ant.
"Miss Carmine, I don't think that I need to tell you what to do in this audition… right?" Said the butler.
"…" Carmine only nodded, not answering the butler.
"You…" The butler felt the indifferent look of Carmine and become angry.
"That fucking gaze… is almost the same as the gaze of that annoying woman" Thought the butler while thinking on a certain cat.
The butler became even angrier and, with a move of his hand, the red gas appeared on his hand and traveled, in what it seems to be an invisible chain, from his hand right to Carmine's neck.
"Ugh…" With pain, Carmine let a small moan.
"Don't make me angry, I can't kill you but I can make sure that you suffer a fate worse than death!" Said the Butler.
"…" Carmine, although in pain, didn't answer the butler.
"It seems that you don't learn!" Shouted the butler.
"Is everything ready?"
Suddenly, a voice interrupted him. The butler immediately kneeled
"My lord, everything is ready" Said the butler.
"And that man?"
"He is already here" Said the butler with a smile.
The monarch appeared and smiled with cruelty.
"Good, it's time for this carnage to start"
..............................................................................
Alfonso looked at the salon in front of him.
A lot of creatures were present.
Including demons, reptiles, and animal-like creatures.
There were even creatures without a specific form.
"This is always amazing" Thought Alfonso.
Alfonso looked around while he walked, however, he felt a lot of gazes on him.
"Why do I feel like an attraction?" Asked Alfonso.
"It can't be helped, we see a lot of humans here, however, these humans always serve as nutrients or cannon folder, so, for the majority of these rich and powerful demons, it's their first time seeing a human, you know, out of their plates" Said Deko.
"…" Alfonso was speechless.
