Chapter 466: Crazy Girl On The Loose
Chapter 466: Crazy Girl On The Loose
(MC POV)
No doubt about it. I definitely remember that face of hers.
Always hitting me with that stupid ‘truck-kun’ stick, using me in her crazy rituals and experiments, forcing me to be bait for monsters to gather materials and loads of other tortures she had subjected me to.
There’s no way I’ll forget that face ever! It’s definitely her!
What the hell is she doing down here in the Earthen Plane? Wasn’t she supposed to be in the Cloud Plane?!
This is the crazy Practitioner that wrestled with dragons using her bare hands, how did they even manage to capture her?!
“Master? Is something wrong?” Manami asked, realising I had stopped head patting them suddenly.
Kiyomi turned to look at the stage, “Hmmm… Did the slave girl catch Master’s interest?”
“She’s… I met her before…” I explained.
Hey, it’s not a lie.
Manami frowned, “Ara? Master’s acquaintance? Hmm… Should we buy her then?”
I thought about it for a moment, would it be wise for me to save her here? What if this action alone changes how the future will pan out?
It vexes me to say this but even as psychotic this girl was, she actually brought some good into the world and the changes she made were quite significant.
Like those dragons she killed? Quite a number of them were supposedly evil dragons that were rampaging around the Plane, though I had a feeling she went to fight them not because she wanted to save the Plane but more to torture me.
So should I just maintain the timeline?
Then again… I took Lian Li and Guiying under my wing when they would have been geniuses hunting down evil doers in the Spiritual Plane if I had not interfered.
Now Guiying is stuck as the Queen of a country and Lian Li is my disciple, isn’t that like a downgrade from being the geniuses of Spiritual Plane?
Hmm… But I can probably make them stronger than they would be in the future, so would that be better?
Arrghhh, I don’t even know, this timeline crap is confusing!
“Number one four seven six! Eighty silvers! Number six two two, eighty five silvers! Number…”
Looks like quite a lot of people are interested in her too…
Seems like the increment for her was five silvers with each bid. I definitely have enough money to outbid everyone here, but should I?
What if she goes bat shit crazy on me again and my disciples get affected?
The orb on my left lit up.
“Number sixty eight! One gold and ten silvers!”
Oh? Seems like he was saving his money to bid on the slaves section.
“Is Master not going to bid for her?” Kiyomi asked while her hands continued to caress my calves.
“Hmm… I’m not sure if I should yet… I have a bad feeling about this…”
To be honest, I still have a slight trauma against her torture sessions and I really, really don’t want to be anywhere near her.
“Ara? Could she be someone troublesome?” Manami asked.
“I guess you could say that, yes. But it’s also because something tells me that I shouldn’t interfere with her, at least for now.”
Perhaps I can find out how she ascended to the Cloud Plane or maybe how she even got the power to sweep aside dragons like they were nothing.
Maybe… She’s actually the real cause of the calamity that will happen in the future that made her ascend to the Cloud Plane?
Does that mean I might need to fight her in the future?
Maybe it’s a better idea to just get rid of her right now…
“And gone! Sold to number sixty eight for two gold and seventy silvers!”
I looked up just in time to see the girl being dragged away, her eyes still glaring up at everyone in the audience.
I looked to the side to see the elderly man smiling to himself, looking quite satisfied with his recent purchase.
One of the servants came by and headed towards him, “Sir, this token is to verify your purchase, you can hold on to it and present it at the back room when the auction is over.”
He took the token before standing up, “No need, I got what I came here for. I’ll be claiming my purchase and leaving now.”
“Understood sir, if you would follow me.”
The elderly man and his guard walked past us and headed towards the back of the auction house just as another slave was brought on to the stage, starting another bidding session.
“We’re going too,” I told my girls, both of them nodding their heads and obeying without question.
We stood and followed behind them slowly, keeping just enough distance between us to not look too obvious that we were following them.
They went to a door at the far end of the auction house, the entrance guarded by a stern looking guard that waved them through after the elderly man showed him his token.
Hmmm… Not good, how are we supposed to follow them through?
We stopped a short distance away from the door, turning ourselves towards the stage to act as though we were merely watching the bidding from the side.
“Manami?” I whispered, not needing to say more for her to understand me.
She shook her head, “There’s a barrier inscription in the walls, we can’t pass through them without breaking it or triggering an alarm.”
Hmm… I probably could break through that inscription, but there’s also the risk of it blowing up. I don’t think it’s worth the attention it would bring just to see what happens to her here…
“There’s no way about it then… They should have another way out inside there so let’s wait outside for them.”
“Yes, Master.”
We made our way out of the auction hall just as the current bid concluded for a male labour slave, the guards barely paying us any attention as we walked by them.
I left my auction tag at the same counter where I got it, the receptionist wishing me a good day as I left.
Just as we got out of the Auction house, the wall a distance away on our left suddenly exploded.
We turned to see the elderly man’s guard laying half dead on the ground, his broken sword laying by his side.
That crazy girl leapt out of the hole in the wall, the elderly man still grasped in her right hand.
“Nauei koodda?!” She screamed, tossing the elderly man on top of his bodyguard like he was just a bag of trash.
Yes, one of the main reasons why I call her crazy is the fact that she speaks in gibberish that no one understands.
Several guards poured out of the auction house, no doubt to restrain and capture her.
She glared in their direction and they immediately fell towards the ground, all of them unconscious.
I frowned, in the short span of time between her being on stage and now… It felt like her power grew by over ten times. What the hell happened to her?
Not wasting any time, she leapt upwards into the air before flying off into the horizon, disappearing from sight in an instant.
What the hell just happened?
