Chapter 404 Charming Host
Viktor could also see people respectfully bowing towards the three roof boxes before sitting down. Some were even bending their backs in an exaggerated way.
Viktor and Seraphina pretended as if they didn't see those three roof boxes and sat down. Viktor was already pissed off, thinking that these high and mighty bastards were shameless to steal such an important item from a peaceful and kind race.
Even after having her race put in danger, these fairies never thought of going to war but instead settled things without bloodshed. It was as if they couldn't even imagine shedding blood or fighting others.
Viktor couldn't understand how they did not feel like retaliating using force, considering the amount of potential power they had, especially Seraphina, who was the Fairy Queen.
Still, he knew no matter how unreasonable or illogical their methods or culture might seem to him, he couldn't simply force them to change.
It was Seraphina's choice to make, and since she wanted to do this quietly without involving too much bloodshed, Viktor could only help her by doing things quietly.
Within just a few minutes, the platform lit up even more as a couple of beautiful ladies wearing sexy maid outfits came out with jubilant smiles. These five ladies weren't humans but seemed to belong to the Vuline race or Vulines for plural.
Viktor was a stranger to that term, but upon seeing them, he understood that Vulines were just fox men and women. They looked human for the most part but with foxtails and ears, making them look quite cute and lovely, especially the five women on the platform.
Since Viktor had been staying in this realm for the past few days, he heard that Vulines were the most sought after race for inter-race marriages due to how pretty and cute they looked, especially the women who had a certain foxy charm to their appearances.
In fact, Viktor had already seen many mixed families in this town with happy and satisfied men, making him feel no doubt that these female Vulines must be quite good in bed.
They also seemed docile enough, and he could see why they were popular among men.
However, on the platform, these five fox girls only seemed to be there as eye candy as Viktor saw a beautiful woman dressed in shiny clothes with her cleavage showing walking towards the front while flashing her pretty smile at everyone seated in the hall.
Her smile was quite attractive, making even the stoic-looking men in the hall shift their attention to her. She seemed to be a human, which was a bit surprising for Viktor since humans were not that abundant here, and he didn't expect a human to take the front stage in such a place.
'Humans haa…they really know how to steal the limelight no matter which place…' Viktor chuckled inwardly.
"Welcome, my precious gentlemen and ladies. I am sure we have all been excited for a long time for this day to arrive. After all, who doesn't love to attend the biggest annual auction in this realm? Ah…forgive me. Where are my manners? Those who are attending this auction for the first time or are newcomers to this town may not know my humble self. So let me introduce myself as Narin Kel, one of your friendly adventurers in town, and I will be your host till evening," Narin said with a polite yet alluring smile as she bowed towards the people while revealing her cleavage even more.
"It's our pleasure to have such a beautiful and talented host like you, Miss Narin," One of the men who seemed to be from a demon race spoke up in a flattery voice.
"Yes! What that man said couldn't be more true. It wouldn't be a lie if I said that the main reason I looked forward to this auction was to be in your graceful presence," Another man said in an excited voice.
"Ha! Is there a need to even say that by trying to make us look bad? This auction wouldn't be half as interesting without Miss Narin's presence," The men, one after the other, shouted out flattery lines while Narin gave a shy smile with a blush, making the men feel even more moved.
Viktor narrowed his eyes upon hearing her name since he had heard this name before. In fact, when he entered the adventurers guild before, she was the most talked about person. It was no surprise as she was one of the top adventurers in town and the one who actually made it out alive after a bunch of adventurers died near the Lulling River.
And one of the other reasons Azu the Goblin Slayer was the talk of the town was because he was the second person to make it out alive after venturing to the Lulling River.
Viktor couldn't understand why the three big shot overlookers of the town couldn't deal with the Sirens themselves. It was not like the Sirens were strong enough to resist against a combined team up of such three powerful races, were they?
He had asked Seraphina the same thing, but unfortunately, she said that she had no idea since only the concerned parties would know about it.
But she said that the Lulling River was not just an ordinary river. That was all she could tell.
However, another main reason Narin was famous was that she was the personal bodyguard of the mermaid princess or, in other words, the wife of Prince Mevron, the President of the Darkwell Trading Union.
Even if she was just a bodyguard, her status belonged to the high class in town due to whom she was serving.
Viktor obviously was seeing this woman for the first time, but he was getting a strange vibe from her, though he wouldn't mind having a one-night stand with her…cough.
"Now, without further ado, let me present to you all the first item…" Narin said with a smile as she snapped her fingers together.
