Inside there are many interesting things that may be as ordinary people will not find in the outside world. Arthur found a large number of cages that were covered with black cloth. There were sounds like growls, roars and moans from some of the cages. In addition, there are also many weapons such as swords with precious stones in their shells, spears with residual blood still attached to the ends, and some very beautiful gems.
“All this will not be issued on today.”
The old man explained as he walked down the hallway of the room, until then they came to a door that was not too big.
“You'll only take you here, after this you show your id number to the person who will welcome you inside.” The man gives Arthur a card with the number 122.
“Oh yes, do not forget to use this mask, to be the same as other visitors.”
The man gave her a mask. The mask was black, with enough size to cover Arthur's entire face. The person who was given the mask, immediately put on the mask.
After giving a nod to the old man, Arthur politely allowed him to enter the door.
“Czech...”
As soon as he opened the door, he was immediately greeted by a very large room, about a quarter the size of a football field.
The room contained chairs that lined up higher and higher to the back, as in a cinema. While the front there is a stage with a podium in the middle. Behind the podium was a very wide red cloth, which Arthur himself did not know what was behind.
“Sorry sir, may I see your id number ?”
A person in a black suit greeted Arthur who looked like a lingling person in the room.
“Oh-eh yes this..”.
He then gave the card to the man.
“Let me inter tuan”
The man then asked Arthur to follow him and head towards the seat on the fourth row from the front. He was then invited to sit there.
Arthur sat there waiting until a woman with a tray in her hand came up and said,
“till drink what master ?”
“cola can, if there are”
“This tuan”
The woman gave Arthur a glass of cola. Then she smiled at him and went to the chair next to her. As soon as Arthur looked next to him, there was already a person in a black suit with the same mask as him. And as he looked up a little further, his surroundings were already full of people wearing the same mask. They saw him talking to a friend next to him. While Arthur who came alone, just stay in his place.
Since this was his first experience for him, he was a bit clumsy to deal with this situation. With an awkward state he sat restlessly in that chair. Accidentally his hand held the handle of the chair, there were buttons with numbers such as calculators. He himself did not know the function of the buttons.
“Welcome visitors at the black market auction..”
“For those who are new first come to this place. On the father or mother's seat there is a button to install the price for the goods auctioned. One button represents the price of one million.”
The man explained about how to play at the black market auction. Arthur looked closely, afraid of a mistake when he later tried to ask for a price.
“Just as we begin, the first item on this day is, a spear used by the crusader. There is still some blood that has not been washed. Proof of authenticity of this item”
The cloth behind the auctioneer opened, and a table with a glass box containing an elucidated spear appeared.
Arthur, who did not understand the meaning of a weapon, made no offer. He felt he didn't need that thing. So when the item was taken by one customer there for two hundred million, he was quite shocked. He did not expect that the spear that looked broken was quite expensive at the auction.
One by one the items were removed at the place, from the sword, the clothes of the deceased artist, paintings previously declared lost in a museum abroad, to the jewels. There was no one to interest him, because it was not those things that were requested by the quest.
Arthur begins to look excited when five shells appear in front of him. The cages contained two white lions, one very beautiful bird that he did not know his name, and two men and women.
The man and woman appeared completely undressed, their hands and feet bound in chains. Their faces were embarrassed. The man looks muscular with a very high body, while the woman looks very beautiful with white skin and long blonde hair straight.
The auction process is carried out, the bidding is quite difficult to occur in the first three cages. Arthur was only interested in the last two cages. Until then the auction process is carried out on women who are there. Arthur pressed the one and zero buttons three times. He forgot that the number on the button was worth a million, so the amount he submitted was one billion.
“.......”
The room was silent for a moment, no one had ever bid a female slave for a billion. As pretty as any slave there is, the maximum price is three hundred million. Unlike things with male slaves that were considered strong, the price could reach five hundred million.
“Basic lewd and stupid man. Pricing female slaves is so expensive.”
“He's crazy”
“Maybe he is too rich”
“Cih... Arrogant man”.
Many whispering voices scoffed at what Arthur was doing. While he himself was confused why not a single person had bid afterwards.
“One billion once...one billion twice...one billion three times.
Arthur was shocked, he finally realized the reason why many people were whispering and no one was bidding after. This happens because it is too expensive to open the price. After that, until the auction process was over he just kept quiet, while cursing his own stupidity.
When he came home, someone approached him.
“Mari pack follow me..”.
He took her to pick up his one billionth slave. Arthur finally met the woman. After their faces meet each other, Arthur uses his mind-reading ability. Until she was sure she was safe, she removed the chain that bound her, and fitted the jacket she wore to her.
