At Eunha’s request, the cat eventually thoroughly checked whether it possessed Pixie Powder or not. However, it seemed that it couldn’t find it in the end.
[Divine Beast ‘Wandering Cat of Darkness’ purrs happily, singing a cheerful song about being friends with the annoying one and the sister.]…It couldn’t be determined whether it truly didn’t have it or was pretending. Since Eunha couldn’t personally search through the cat’s fur.
Then, what other options were left? Lost in thought, Eunha suddenly raised her head.
Thunk.
She hesitated but eventually started dialing the number on the mobile phone lying on the table.
Drrrr…
After a few beeps, a familiar male voice could be heard from the receiver.
“Hello.”
“It’s me.”
Eunha replied in a low voice.
Following that, the sound of something heavy falling was heard. Eunha glanced at her mobile phone with a puzzled expression, then brought it closer to her ear again.
“……Hello?”
「…….」
“Are you okay?”
「…….」
“Sorry for calling suddenly. I had something I wanted to ask.”
「…….」
There was no response from Siu, whether he was listening or feeling displeased about the contact reaching him when the contract might have already been terminated.
‘If that’s the case, he probably wouldn’t have answered.’
Siu, whom Eunha had known, was someone with clear likes and dislikes.
But then, it happened.
Through the receiver, there was a rustling, thud, and thump! Unidentified sounds followed one after another. It wasn’t until about a minute later that Eunha could hear Siu’s answer.
“……What’s going on?”
A deeply sunk voice. What could have been the noise that came from the other end just a moment ago remained unknown.
“I’m looking for Pixie Powder. Can you get some information?”
“Why are you suddenly asking about that?”
“Just got curious because it’s said to be a precious item.”
「…….」
Silence again.
While waiting for his response, Eunha eventually spoke first.
“No, forget it. I’ll hang up.”
“……Pixie Powder is… ”
Just as she was about to disconnect the call, a faint voice seeped through the handset.
“Pixie Powder can only be dropped in gates where fairy-type monsters appear, and that too, in S-rank or higher gates. As you might know, fairy-type monsters are extremely rare, and the drop rate is low, especially for artifact-grade items. I haven’t actually seen it myself.”
“……Is that so?”
“Yes. But it’s not like there’s no way to obtain it at all. The Hunter Auction is about to open. Perhaps you could find Pixie Powder there.”
“Hunter Auction?”
“It’s an auction held once a year in Sejong City. Maybe you could get Pixie Powder there, although it might be worth calling if there’s something available. There will be many people aiming for it.”
“Really?”
Eunha responded blandly.
Following that was another silence. Not even a small breath could be heard through the receiver.
Taking advantage of that gap, while Eunha was continuing with other thoughts, she eventually pursed her lips and spoke softly.
“I understand for now. Thanks.”
「…….」
“Then, I’ll hang up.”
「…….」
“……. ”
Eunha glanced at her mobile phone screen. The call, which she thought would be disconnected instantly, didn’t seem to show any signs of ending even after several seconds.
“……I’ll hang up first.”
「…….」
Siu never responded until the end. Perhaps he thought it was disconnected and simply shoved the mobile phone back into his back pocket.
Thunk.
In the end, Eunha hung up first.
Since expressions couldn’t be seen through the phone, she couldn’t be sure, but Siu felt somewhat different from the Siu she remembered. Though she couldn’t articulate it skillfully, it felt somewhat different.
“……For now.”
Quietly lost in thought, Eunha left her room and turned on the laptop that was placed on the dining table. Hunter Auction, Siu had definitely mentioned it.
Tick-tock…
Extending her index fingers, Eunha vigorously typed on the keyboard.
‘Hunter Auction’
[Sejong City Hunter Auction ▶ Official hunter auction held annually by the Korean Hunter Union since September 2005.Participated by guilds and hunters recognized globally, the auction held on the third day ensures strict privacy protection by being conducted anonymously.] [Location: Sejong Central Park – Provides temporary lodging for a maximum of 2 nights. (Check additional fee schedule)] [Note: As of 2031, the participation fee has increased by 10 coins compared to last year, now totaling 310 coins.]
310 coins… Eunha, who was scrolling the mouse wheel, paused for a moment and immersed herself in thought.
‘What can you do with 300,000 coins?’
‘Well, it’s hard to calculate coins as conventional currency… If we were to consider, it would be around 30 billion?’
If Eunha’s memory served her right, Siu had clearly said something like that before.
30,000 coins for 300 billion. That would mean 10 billion for 10,000 coins, and 100,000 won per coin.
So, if we calculate…
‘…The participation fee is over 30 million won?’
It seemed like the organizers were out of their minds. Unless this Hunter Auction was on an incredibly enormous scale or something, it was hard to believe such an amount without thinking so.
In fact, considering the earnings of modern hunters, it wasn’t a particularly tremendous amount. However, it was different for Eunha.
Eunha had never spent more than a million won at once in her life. Taking into account the cost of living in Korea when Eunha was alive, it still seemed like an unbelievable amount.
Of course, what they were asking for was not in Korean won but in coins.
Fortunately, Eunha’s contracted spirit, the ‘Shadow-wandering Cat,’ had a habit of sponsoring her with coins.
‘Yeah, if it’s coins, it should be enough.’
Although she hadn’t checked recently, the last time she checked, the remaining coins were more than 400,000, so there shouldn’t be a shortage.
Eunha, who had paused her hand, moved it again to scroll down the mouse wheel.
[[Star Icon] Stand rental is available at the entrance on the same day, and the cost is separate. (Location cannot be specified.)] [[Star Icon] For the sale booth, advance reservation is required.

[Event Period: September 10th to September 12th (Total 3 days)]It was just two days away.
When yandere male lead believes she loves him — but she never did
“How dare you!”
“How dare you make me love you, only to cast me aside as nothing more than a friend?!?
“I will never accept that.”
“I will never let you return to him.”
“Even if I have to burn myself to ashes.”
“Even if I must shatter my purity, my dignity, my very soul.”
“I will never let you escape me!”
This was the first novel that introduced me to the matriarchal genre. I’ve read it three times already!
At first, the male lead despised the female lead. Later, he misunderstood that she liked him, so he condescendingly and reluctantly reciprocated her feelings.
Then, he suddenly discovered that she was kind to everyone in the same way, and there was already someone she cherished in her heart, and that person was not him.
The male lead couldn’t believe it, he became angry and crazy. He was determined to capture her body and heart by any means necessary.
