“Four million gold! It’s an unprecedented amount. You must be very pleased! Now, come this way!”

The auctioneer, excited, guided me around like a sycophant.

Where he led me was a temporary tent erected near the auction house.

When I lifted the entrance curtain and stepped inside, red eyes gazing at me from the darkness shone brightly.

“This fellow is quite wild. You have to be very careful when you take him or use him.”

“I understand.”

“Ha ha, yes, Your Highness will know what to do… oh my! You shouldn’t get that close….”

Ignoring the auctioneer who tried to stop me in surprise, I walked right up to Rodri.

Rodri seemed to be startled, eyes wide open, he hadn’t expected me to come so close.

“He’s got a lot of scars.”

“……”

I murmured to myself, examining the wounds on Rodri’s body.

Fortunately, there were no major disfigurements, and once he was brought to Salisbury Castle for treatment, he seemed likely to recover quickly.

Well, I could also heal him with the power of the butterflies.

“Does it hurt a lot? Hang in there. Ah, I’ll also remove this restraint later.”

I whispered softly enough for the flustered auctioneer behind me not to hear. Then, I reached out and gently stroked Rodri’s rough cheek.

Rodri stared at me as if he was seeing something strange. He was supposed to be savage and dangerous. It would be a lie if I said I wasn’t scared, but my sympathy was stronger.

Did April and he have just a two or three year age difference? He’s still a very young child. At an age where he should be protected by adults, he was treated as a slave and even abused…

‘It’s pitiful. Rodri and the other beasts who were auctioned off. There must be many more beasts suffering in reality. The Ainstern Kingdom is really a rotten country from the top.’

If the upstream is clear, the downstream will also be clear. The highest authorities of the country are practicing inhumane behaviors, which is why the country is in such a mess.

And historically, such messy countries collapse soon.

‘They call this karma.’

Having squatted to match my eye level with Rodri’s, I slowly stood up.

Turning around, I saw the auctioneer staring at me with a pale face.

“Prepare to take this boy away.”

“Ah… Yes, yes! I’ll, I’ll call the workers!”

After a while, a group of workers came rushing over, harshly subduing Rodri and putting him in a cage made of iron.

Watching this scene, I was so appalled that I felt a headache and leaned my hand against my forehead. They really treated him like an animal.

“Stop it, everyone.”

When I, who had approached the cage, commanded the workers, they all stopped their actions and lowered their heads.

I sighed and looked at Rodri. Rodri was still looking at me with strange eyes.

“Get this boy out of the cage. I will take him personally.”

“Huh? But… this kid is….”

“Are you talking back to me? Are my words a joke to you?”

“No, no! I will follow your order! I’m sorry!”

The wicked lady Gloria’s image was highly effective in times like this. The workers hurriedly removed Rodri from the cage, fearful of offending me.

Pushed by the workers, Rodri quietly stood in front of me. Everyone around was nervously watching this boy as if he were a time bomb. I gave Rodri a slight smile.

“We’re going to Salisbury Castle in Elowin Kingdom. You know where that is, don’t you?”

Everyone in the world knows about Salisbury, a dukedom of Elowin, the kingdom of the beasts. Rodri, who glanced at me, silently nodded.

“Okay, then….”

I hesitated for a moment, then grabbed the leash… attached to Rodri’s restraints.

‘What is this….’

It was a scene with a lot of visual problems. Actually, I wanted to hold hands, but that behavior would not befit Gloria and would attract attention.

Of course, I’m already acting out of character… but so far, it could be interpreted as ‘She must really like that beast slave.’

‘But if Gloria walks side by side, holding the hand of a beast slave? That’s absurd.’

So I had no choice but to hold Rodri’s leash and walk to where the carriage was parked.

When I arrived a little later, the knights who were supposed to escort me were still standing there in the same posture.

But there was also another unwelcome guest.

“You’re late, Gloria.”

It was none other than Evangeline.

“I’ve been waiting for you here. That slave, are you really thinking of taking him?”

Evangeline pointed at Rodri with a chin gesture. As I suspected, it was as I expected. If Evangeline Ainstern gave up what she wanted easily, it would not be her.

“Of course, I should take him, sister. I won the bid, didn’t I?”

I tilted my head as if I didn’t understand Evangeline’s question itself. Evangeline licked her lips and looked at me with a hostile expression.

“Gloria, have you forgotten who you married? What do you plan to explain to your husband about that slave?”

In the Kingdom of Elowin, the slave system is illegal, and it is even more absurd for humans to abuse demihumans in a country of demihumans.

The Male lead Always Seduces Her with His Beauty (Matriarchy)

Xin Jiao Zhou is the leader of the world’s premier sect. She has just experienced betrayal from all sides, was poisoned in an assassination attempt, and faced death squad attacks while the poison was taking effect. After finally clearing out the scum from her sect, she was drugged again while trying to detoxify.

After waking up from a night of unconsciousness, she gained a “beautiful and kind-hearted” husband.

Xin Jiao Zhou: “???”

He fell ill.

She came to see him, bringing breakfast.

As she put down the breakfast and was about to leave, his hand slipped while holding the spoon. “Clank!”

She turned around upon hearing the noise.

He looked up at her, his eyebrows drooping: “My hand… has no strength.”

“Shall I… feed you?” she asked tentatively.

He opened his mouth cheerfully: “Ah—”

Thinking she was drowning, he jumped in without hesitation to save her, but nearly drowned himself. In the end, it was she who swam over to rescue him, giving him air underwater.

After emerging from the water, his ear tips turned red. He lightly brushed his cheek, tucking his sideburns behind his ear, revealing delicate, pink-tinged ear tips. He lowered his gaze, too embarrassed to look at her.

Xin Jiao Zhou: He’s truly beautiful, kind-hearted, and adorable.

A certain someone when disciplining subordinates behind the scenes: “If they don’t obey, just kill them.”

What’s that? She might already have someone she cares about in her heart? A certain someone: Find out who it is, kill them, and then there won’t be anyone.

What? She met a man by the riverside? What? That man even hurt her? A certain someone: Whichever hand hurt her, chop off his entire arm.

Love at first sight without realizing it, gradually falling in love, slowly getting closer…

Family and national grudges, schemes and desires, good and evil, crime and punishment, she and he face the future together, seeking justice with passion!

A naturally dark female lead who could accidentally destroy the world but is actually an honest person VS a weak, pitiful, and helpless but skilled fighter, beautiful white-cut black male lead
