Chapter 213
* * *
This is a dream. Alice bit her lips.
“This product is none other than the Empire’s Empress!”
Yes, it’s a dream. There’s no way this could be reality.
“Lyos Grants— as everyone knows, the impotent Emperor who didn’t receive the Blessing of Sun God Ramun!”
“Hahahaha!”
Amidst the bursting ridicule, Alice thought blankly.
Impotent?
That might be true. No matter how much she thought about it, Lyos seemed to be a eunuch.
Is that why they look down on me, the Empress, and torment me?
“Then we’ll start at 500 million gold.”
If not for that, there’s no way they’d treat me so pathetically!
“550 million gold!”
“600 million gold!”
Warning signs flashing up and down. And the soaring prices. It was frightening and humiliating.
“650 million gold! Let’s see what the Emperor’s wife is like!”
“Wahahahaha!”
At that moment, Alice realized clearly.
It’s because of Lyos after all.
That’s why I’m suffering this humiliation.
“700 million gold!”
But how could His Majesty let me end up like this?
I even gave birth to an heir recently, I bore a son.
Yet how could he let me become like this?
‘If Sister Dana had given birth to a child, he would have taken extreme care of her!’
Anger and sorrow washed over her, but there were no more tears left to shed.
“1 billion gold! 1 billion gold has been called!”
By then, Alice had completely given up. There was no hope left anymore.
“From now on, it continues as a bidding war between Customer 46 and Customer 66!”
Just please, even a little bit, let a somewhat normal barbarian become my master.
Alice wished for this as she weakly turned her head to look at the man holding the number 46 sign. But…
‘Huh?’
Suddenly her tears dried up.
What.
‘He seems handsome…?’
Although he was wearing his robe pulled down deep so his entire face wasn’t visible— the nose bridge and jawline showing below gave off a wild feeling.
‘There are such handsome men even among the barbarians.’
Alice rolled her eyes around.
The other candidate, number 66—
‘That person seems handsome too.’
He was a man with brown shaggy hair that came down to around his eyes, wearing large horn-rimmed glasses, and had milk-white skin.
Suddenly her mood became strange.
Two handsome men were competing to possess her. Because they wanted her.
‘They’re fighting to have me.’
Only one winner among those two would become her master. Thinking this way made her heart strangely flutter.
“1.5 billion gold! Customer 46 has called 1.5 billion gold! Customer 66, what will you do?”
Was it too much after all? Finally, Customer 66 shook his head and lowered his sign.
That meant.
‘Customer 46. That person…’
Has become my master?
“Follow me!”
As she was dragged backstage again by the servant’s hand, fantasies grew wildly in Alice’s mind.
‘Come to think of it, I read a novel like this recently.’
It was an R-rated romance where a foreign prince bought a fallen kingdom’s princess as a slave and became her master. Maybe something like that could happen to me too…?!
While having all sorts of fantasies.
“Get in!”
Alice’s body was forcibly pushed into the room.
Inside the guest room. The man from number 46 was sitting on the sofa.
He jumped up from his seat as soon as Alice entered. Very quickly, walking over somewhat urgently while taking off his robe.
Swish, the hood fell back and finally his face was revealed.
‘Ah.’
In an instant, Alice’s heart dropped with a thud.
As expected, he was an incredible handsome man.
But it was a face she knew.
That burning red hair. Those red eyes.
“Uncle Ignis?”
Alice muttered that name blankly.
Ignis de Windsor. The man who was once an adopted son of the Windsor Family and her uncle.
I thought Uncle Ignis went missing, what is he doing here?
Don’t tell me!
“D-don’t tell me you came to rescue me…?”
Then Ignis slowly shook his head.
“No. I purchased you.”
At the hot possessiveness and raw passion she suddenly felt, Alice’s heart trembled.
This person wants me right now.
Since when? Don’t tell me he’s harbored forbidden affection for me from before?
“Take it off.”
Alice’s ears turned red. To say such suggestive words with such a scary face.
“There’s no time. So we need to do what needs to be done.”
Ignis smiled, baring his teeth.
“I’m curious what a child between Ignis and you would be like.”
Alice tilted her head. Between ‘Ignis’ and me?
Why is he referring to his own name as if calling someone else?
* * *
Backstage, Dana saw Ignis.
Although he wore his robe pulled down, that nose bridge, jawline, lips, everything was definitely Ignis.
And that wasn’t all there was to Ignis.
“Number 87! Customer 87 has called 1.6 billion gold!”
That man holding the sign right now is also Ignis.
This time he was just wearing a hat pulled down, but it was certain.
Ignis. It was his clone.
The Anti-Pope Faction humans were arbitrarily replicating Ignis’s body and using it as they pleased.
So, everything was just fake.
They were just parasites that had entered and settled into bodies that were identical shells, mass-produced copies.
‘Disgusting…’
Her head spun.
She was so angry that her stomach burned and ached.
Did Ignis know?
That even after his death, his shell would be stolen and exploited like this? Could he have ever imagined that cowardly humans would enter it arbitrarily and use it as they pleased?
He must have hated Windsor so much because he had a premonition. He must have wanted to go to the Sanctuary so desperately.
To interfere with that experiment, to reclaim his humanity, his dignity.
‘No, stop thinking about it.’
Dana tried not to think about it. When she thought too deeply about him, it felt like a corner of her heart was burning away.
She just needed to act.
Even if it was impossible, she would try using the Sacred Relic so he could be revived.
Even if he couldn’t come back to life.
‘I can’t just let Ignis’s body be exploited like that.’
In Ignis’s place, she would destroy all of his cloned bodies.
Just then, the auctioneer shouted loudly.
“Customer 66 has bid 4 billion gold!”
Dana was awakened from her thoughts by that voice and looked at number 66.
Number 66, that man.
It seemed like he would probably win the bid for her.
Dana narrowed her eyes and carefully examined the man’s face.
‘He looks familiar?’
Though his face was hard to see because of his disheveled hair and horn-rimmed glasses, that unusually pale skin and boyish impression…
“5 billion gold! It’s gone up to 5 billion gold! Is there anyone who will bid higher?”
Just then, number 66 slyly raised his sign while glancing at her.
Dana didn’t miss that moment and mouthed a curse.
‘Vermin.’
If it was that person, there would definitely be a reaction.
‘Trash.’
Because that person, despite being a despicable fraud, was terribly afraid of her harsh words.
‘Waste that can’t even be recycled.’
Sure enough, flinch. The man’s shoulders stiffened.
Dana smiled coldly and drove the nail in.
‘Go die, trash.’
Ah. As expected.
Seeing his lower lip stiffen, Dana sneered.
So it really was you.
“The lucky man who won the final bid for the Diana Church test subject is number 66! Number 66!”
Bang bang bang! The sound of the wooden gavel striking could be heard.
