"I really am foolish, truly..."
Standing on that stage-like round table, looking at the witches who had co for her, Sidwell felt not joy from her popularity but rather her anger intensified.
After all, who would be happy about being the most popular vegetable in a market?
Miss Moon Rabbit only felt insulted, and what upset her even more was that she had deaned herself.
So why, oh why, did I co here, bewitched as I was?
Sidwell blad herself in her heart.
She had simply gone to inquire in the hall before, only to be bamboozled by the counter witch and, without really understanding how, registered her information. Upon seeing she was of the Moon Rabbit Clan, the counter witch's face lit up with surprise, and she quickly arranged for her to co to this exhibition area.
Blissfully unaware, she was arranged all the way until just monts ago, when she took the stage and entered into her familiar battlefield. That was when she suddenly snapped back to alertness.
Damn it, there's sothing wrong with this talent market, there must be so hypnotic arrangent at play.
Once she realized that, the one who hated being controlled exploded with fury, taking down her opponent with a single blow. However, she was then teleported straight into this hall to face the forthcoming auction phase.
Heh, so this is what witches are, so arrogant. What do they take for, an item waiting to be purchased or a pet they can play with at will?
At this mont, Sidwell's already unfavorable impression of witches grew worse, bordering on loathing.
Of course, she could have chosen to leave right then, as arrogant as these witches were, they were at least rule-abiding and didn't restrict her freedom.
But if she simply skulked away, Sidwell felt she might not sleep tonight, fuming as if she were a coward.
Even as reason advised her to endure, to keep the bigger picture in mind, her people were waiting, and she could leave tomorrow, she knew her anger would subside after a while.
But she couldn't help it; the more she backed down, the angrier she got, until she couldn't bear it any longer.
However, she hadn't lost her sanity, nor did she create a scene. That would have been aningless.
And while she had the boldness of a lion's heart, she was not foolish; bravery didn't an recklessness. She was well aware of the consequences of causing trouble here, the fearso reputation of the Calamity at the top of the witch hierarchy wasn't unfounded.
Luckily, the witches, although arrogant, were also orderly, especially since this talent market was set up by their Witch King. Generally, witches wouldn't break the rules here. If she wanted to regain so dignity, she only had to do so within these rules.
Fine, you want to auction off as a commodity first? Fine by , I want to see who can afford , who can na the right price.
Sidwell thought angrily to herself.
So, she not only intended to attend the auction about her but also to cooperate fully in auctioning herself off, albeit with the intent to see if there was a Kai bold enough to take her on.
She, the Moonlit Lionheart Rabbit, would open her jaws wide.
The Witch Clan might be powerful, but they were not so powerful that there were big shots everywhere. The upcoming auction was rely a spur-of-the-mont regular auction, not so well-promoted, well-prepared boutique auction.
She doubted there would just happen to be a few who could casually toss her a few moons.
Snorting, she thought, anyway, when I make my bid, don't bla for not giving you the chance when you can't afford it.
So...
With a swift motion, Sidwell hopped onto the large round table. Glancing at the indistinct figures of the witches around her, she couldn't be bothered to mince her words and spoke outright.
"I, Moonlit Lionheart Rabbit, the newly appointed queen of the Track of the Moon Clan, have co here for no other reason than to see if there's a daring Kai."
"Those who don't know can search the Magic Network first, see if you're worthy to beco my master. I don't want to serve a master weaker than myself."
"And behind , I have a million mouths waiting to be fed, so whoever wants to be my master will have to settle my people first. Therefore, I hope that you, my future master, must own a world in the Moon World, no broke people need apply."
"Oh, and I'm a bit picky about looks..."
"Mm, it's best if you're not too old..."
........
Below the stage, Dorothy raised an eyebrow as she watched the bunny girl act so arrogantly in front of a crowd of witches.
She felt offended.
"Tsk, the chick's got quite the temper. Are you auctioning yourself off or what? If I didn't know any better, I'd think you were here for a blind date."
However, the Moonlit Lionheart Rabbit had co up and blown her own cover, which was beyond Dorothy's expectation. It seed like her chance to snag a bargain had slipped away, and it was about ti for the poor to exit the stage, giving way to Senior Mia's performance.
And Senior Mia did not disappoint Dorothy. Soon, the hobody witch heard the figure sitting next to her speak up.
"Is that all you require? Anything else?"
The barrier that had concealed the figure suddenly disappeared, revealing Senior Mia's tall and voluptuous figure. The Golden Princess was looking at Miss Moon Rabbit on stage with a smile, who had been stunned by her words, and then calmly surveyed the other witches around her.
"Ladies, I would appreciate your grace today. It just so happens my ho could use a little bunny pet with personality."
So, not only was Sidwell stunned on stage, but so were the other witches present. Who in the Witch Academy didn't know Senior Mia?
Instantly, the conference room erupted into noise.
"Senior, as long as you're happy."
"Ah, Senior, who are we to compete with you? We're not worthy."
"Senior is powerful."
"Senior, be sure to train that little bunny well."
....
At that mont, everyone had forgotten about Sidwell at the round table; they were all too busy currying favor with the wealthy lady.
After a few polite exchanges, people started to get up and leave. Even those who were genuinely interested in the new Moonlit Lionheart Rabbit shook their heads and left helplessly.
After all, who would be foolish enough to compete with the Golden Princess in terms of wealth? That would be asking for humiliation. Experience exclusive tales on My Virtual Library Empire
So, when the conference room quieted down again, Dorothy looked around and noticed that aside from Senior Mia, there were two other figures. Then those two figures also dispelled their barriers, revealing Alice and Audrey.
At this point, Dorothy and the other two were still staring dumbfounded at Senior Mia.
Ah, so this is how the big shots hold an auction?
And as for Senior Mia, she was in no hurry. She usually wasn't so high-profile, but the little bunny was an unexpected gift for the Little Fairy. Although the Little Fairy herself didn't mind, she did, and to make sure this little bunny didn't escape, it wouldn't hurt to be a bit ostentatious today.
So...
"Little bunny, we can have a proper chat now. Do you have any other requirents?"
"Oh, you might not know who I am. You can go check on the Magic Network first, just to confirm if I'm suitable."
....The Golden Princess smiles....
