"We'reee back!" Marco shouted as he slammed the door and went inside their room with a few bags in hand.

Rio just shook his head as he felt like he was escorting a lady shopping through every stalls it sees but the only difference is marco broughts foods that people can eat instead.

“Woof!“ Entering the room. Neo greeted them with his tails wagging which made marco tackled the little pup as he rubbed his cheeks on his furr. The pup was too cute for his heart!

Seeing the necromancer getting all mushy on the pup. He let out a sighed and looked at the stranger who is standing near the bed of yuriel like a statue.

He already knew that someone aside from yuriel is inside when they've entered the room with just the presence alone.

Marco also noticed the man as he slowly let go of the pup and looked at him.

“Hi there. Did yuriel take you here?“ Marco asked as he pointed the sleeping buritto.

Understanding the question. The beastmen replied with a nod. He was still a slave of the person and just from the presence of the other two, they seem to be powerful.

Don't get him wrong. He was also known as powerful in his tribe.

“I see. Then better wake up the sleepy head since he haven't eaten any dinner yet and that might be the same for you Hahaha“ Marco laughed like a maniac which was soon been shut up by Rio by covering his mouth with a handkerchief.

While marco was busy coughing and taking the handkerchief from his mouth. Rio went to the silver-haired man's bed and pulled the blanket that is covering him.

He then pulled the bedsheet along with yuriel on it which cause the man to fall on the floor.

It was indeed the best choice since it quickly woke him up.

Groaning from the pain of falling. Yuriel slowly sat up as his visions were still blurry but understood that the one who caused his 'misfortune' was the person who is just standing near him.

Yuriel cast a glare at rio as he cursed him inwardly for waking him up for his sleep.

“Sorry for waking you up but you and him should eat first.“ Rio stated as he pointed at the beastmen who is currently looking at them with a shocked expression.

He didn't expect that they're so chaotic since he thought that yuriel and his companions have manners like those of a noble. But it was literally the opposite, truly the opposite.

Following Rio's pointed finger. He saw the person who he brought from the auction which quickly woked up his sleeping soul.

'Right! I almost forgot about him!' He thought and slowly stand up as he yawned and stretched his arms.

“By the way, yuriel. Who is this guy?“ Marco asked which made yuriel shrug.

“I don't know. I just brought him in the auction.“ He let go of the bomb as it made the two suddenly froze from their spot.

“YOU WHAT?!“ They shouted that even the great silent rio couldn't contain himself from shouting.

Covering his ears. Yuriel just sighed as he expected this from the start. Afterall, they don't know anything about yuriel going to the auction.

“God… My eardrums hurt…”

“Oh yes. I might even damage it if you don't explain it to us properly.”

“The same goes for me. Do explain yourself Yuriel.“

Marco and Rio threateningly said as their eyes squinted which surprised yuriel. Never did he see the two like this.

“A-alright… But not now okay? Let's first feed the person i… um…. took in“

“Just say brought.“ Rio added as yuriel didn't even dare to reply anymore.

Looking at the beastmen who is currently confused and was watching them. He smiled at him and asked.

“By the way, I forgot to ask but what's your name?"

“…… It's… Lev Sedford… Master..” He replied back which earned him a disbelief look from the latter.

“Please don't call me Master or anything. It feels weird…. As in so weird…” Yuriel said as he felt the hairs on his arms raise.

“….As you wis—”

“And don't use formal words too. We are just commoners… well, except for rio."

“i-i see….“

Lev couldn't believe what he just heard. How can yuriel be a commoner when his entire looks is like a noble and has a lot of money.

Marco saw the look from the beastmen as he just laughed and went to his direction.

Feeling a presence getting near him. He turned to his right and saw the necromancer heading to his way.

When Marco was already standing infront of him. He opened a paper bag and took a piece of cookies.

“Eat up. You must be hungry. I'll also leave the other paper bags here so you can eat another type of food. The three of us will just talk.“ Marco said as he head back to the other two's direction.

Already knowing what's gonna happen. Yuriel asked Neo to look after Lev and accompany him for a moment before the group of three went to another room where they changed their clothes.

Being the last. Yuriel closed the door slowly and looked the two only to meet their serious gazes again.

Tapping his finger on his thigh like an impatient person. Rio spoke, “Can you now tell us.“

'Just when did he start doing that?!' Yuriel ccouldn't believe that rio can do this kind of action which made him question himself if he really is part of the group.

Sighing, He told everything to the two about him entering the auction. He even shared his thoughts about wanting to explode the base.

“Then why didn't you do it?“

“I can't okay? Unlike at the Empire where i had the crown prince as my back-up. I don't have anyone powerful helping me here. I can't possibly put on a show… Especially that 'that' organization is part of that auction..“ He explained which made the two get serious even more.

“That is indeed a dangerous move… We can't still let that organization know about you nor us…” Rio added which earned a nod from yuiriel.

The two already know about the organization back when they're still training at the cave with Zhyno. At first, they couldn't digest what they were hearing from yuriel but they believed him. He is afterall, their savior and friend.

“Don't worry… When it's about time, we will surely free the slaves at the auction…” Yuriel confronted the two.

After that, their conversation ended as they went back to the room where they saw Lev and Neo eating the other foods happily.

The three also joined as they finished the food with Rio, Marco and Neo sleeping with a full stomach.

When yuriel saw that the two are asleep. He looked at Lev who is also looking at him.

Snapping his fingers. Their surroundings started to changed as they were engulfed by a galactic void and transporting them to yuriel's personal domain.

Lev was shocked by the sudden changed of environment and couldn't help but to suddenly let his guard up.

He was indeed right about this person! He was really a powerful person and the evidence is right before his very eyes.

“Now then. Let's start talking for real.“ Yuriel smiled as he snapped his fingers again and two chairs appear on both.

Sitting down. Yuriel crossed his legs and looked at Lev who also sit on the chair.

Not waiting anymore. He started talking.

“I know you want to go back to your tribe.“ His words made lev flinched as he gritted his teeth.

He stared at yuriel intently which was replied with a smile from the latter.

“Don't worry. You'll be able to go home.“

“Really?!“ Lev quickly stood up as he felt his heart jumping in happiness.

Finallly! He can go home after one and a half month of being in the hands of the slave-traders.

Seeing the happiness of the beastmen. Yuriel bit his lip as he couldn't help but feel guilty for what he was about to say.

“….But…. Not for now.“ With that. Lev's smile slowly fades as he looked at yuriel.

“What?! but you said i can go home!“ His emotions was starting to ressurface as his fangs were gritted tightly. Just when he thought of meeting his family again. How could yuriel crush his hopes?

Sighing in defeat. Yuriel smiled at him sympathetically, “Can you listen to my explanation first? I'll allow you to vent your anger after you hear my side.“

Yuriel calmly negotiate with Lev which seems to work as the aura around lev started to dissipate and finally faded.

Seeing that lev was willing to listen. Yuriel smiled and started to talk.
