The young twin of the Tan clan is sometimes mentioned in the game.

Unfortunately, they’re already dead.

One day, they were taken to Ananta by Olden’s head, Carlon and eventually died when they failed to escape. It also fell into the scapegoat of materials to create a magic tool.

And the magic tool, created from the powerful Tan clan, soon becomes a masterpiece and is released into the world, and it falls into the hands of the final villain later in the game.

How can the strongest magic tool fall in the hands of the villain?

Of course it causes tremendous damage, and one of the victims was Belita, the owner of this body.

So somehow she has to prevent them from being taken away and prevent them from being made into a magic tool.

“In fact, they’re not the only ones who need to be saved.”

Although she said lightly that she would hit Carlon in the back of his head, what actually happened here was not light at all.

There’s definitely no slavery in the empire, so why is there a slave auction going on in Ananta?

That’s because this is not an ordinary slave auction house, but a stage for developing magic tools.

After secretly capturing people through kidnapping or human trafficking, Olden turned the mana back and used them as scapegoats for the magic tools, and those without mana sold them as slaves to cover the funds.

Along with swordsmen and wizards, strong magic tools are a symbol of national power.

The empire tolerated Olden’s cruel illegality because they were, more than anyone else, benefiting from the enormous amount of magic tools that Olden created.

Even the owner of that great golden throne.

“……it’s too messy.”

At that time, it was the world in the game, so there was no guilt even if she had set the world view like that.

But now the world was alive and breathing, and she, who was just a developer, was walking around here. Now that this happened, at least what could be corrected had to be corrected.

Belita gave a cold look to the roaring Tan twins on the stage where the auction was going on.

It was obvious why the people who had to be chosen were here. You’re going to auction it off, get as much money as you can, and then kidnap them again later. It’s not that difficult with Ananta’s restraint.

And that’s when the little twins will never see the light again.

“Number 31, 500,000 ilon.”

The amount, which started at 10,000 ilon, soared 50 times in an instant.

Excited people waved their fingers and drove up prices frantically.

‘500,000 ilon is 500 million won? He’s so generous.’

I was just annoyed, not envious of their financial resources, which cost about 500 million won.

‘What shall I do now?’

She has no money. So she can’t participate in the auction. Then does she have no choice but to use the function of the map to infiltrate this place and release them?

That’s when Belita thought about it.

Ppi-pi-pi-pi-pi-pi-pi-pi-pi

‘This is definitely the sound that rings when there’s a game notification, but why is it……?’

Belita’s body hardened as the alarm sound that she heard countless times while developing the game to the point of being neurotic rang. But before she could react, a translucent system message came to her eyes.

 [Unexpected situation!]

 [We found abducted people in the auction house, Ananta. Liberating these people gives you the possibility of opening a new route as a reliable helper.

 Do you want to continue?

 (Yes / No)]

“What’s this?”

What do you mean, “an unexpected situation”? Obviously, while playing the game, this kind of thing used to appear for purposes similar to quests.

“But this is before the actual game starts”

Even before the main story begins, what kind of unexpected situation is this? No, of course it’s true that something that wasn’t in the original is happening, so it’s an unexpected situation…….

You didn’t say much until you came to the auction house, but as soon as I tried to save those twins, you showed this notification?

Suddenly the back of my head went cold. Like I’m about to be hit in the back of the head.

“And what’s the possibility of opening a new route?”

In a target game, ‘route’ means to target a male lead. But it’s just for the heroine, and has nothing to do with her, who is nothing but a supporting villain.

But why is it that a route is created for herself?

“……No. I only get the possibility of opening a route, and not having it opened right away.”

After rereading the content, Belita shook her head. The possibility of opening and the route to actually open were clearly different in meaning.

“I don’t have a choice anyway.”

That new route was on my mind, but I couldn’t stand by and watch them die.

In the end, Belita pressed the “Yes” button. Then a new notification came to mind.

[Unexpected situation!]

 [Quest item ‘Number Plate’ has been issued to inventory. Use this item to save these people!

 Reward: Reliable helper and meeting the new route opening conditions]

A number plate as a quest item.

Belita, who opened the inventory, was speechless when she saw the number plate for the auction, which occupies one space. She’s sure she will only be able to get this at the official entrance, but why the hell is this here?

“But what am I supposed to do with this if you just give me this? I don’t have any money.”

How can she participate in an auction well over 500 million won when she is penniless? Even if she has a number plate, it was just a wooden plate with numbers on it now.

“It doesn’t help even if I have it. I’ll have to infiltrate through a secret passage.….”

Just as Bellita was about to turn off the inventory window, a corner of the window began to blink violently as if to look at me. Belita, who looked there, immediately had her eyes wide. She couldn’t believe it, so she rubbed her eyes several times and looked at it again, but nothing changed.

[IL.70,000,000]

At the bottom of the inventory, IL, which means ilon, and a whopping 70 million were written.

Seventy million ilons

70 billion won in Korean won.

“Insane….”

It was a familiar number. It was none other than the sales of “The Guardian’s Garden.”

For a game released in Korea, I clearly remembered it because my boss said it was not enough even though it was an overflowing amount of money.

But I can’t believe that amount is in my inventory.

Is it a coincidence?

She doesn’t understand. She couldn’t say that it was irrelevant because she is already possessing one of the characters of this game.

What the hell does this game want from her?

Belita chewed on her lips.

“Number 17, we got 1 million.”

But now was not the time to argue about that. Belita, who turned her head, lifted the number plate and unfolded her thumb and small finger at the same time.

“Number 44, 1.5 million.”

1.5 billion won. She can’t believe this day has come.

She knows it’s not a situation like that, but it’s the first time in her life she’s able to spend 1.5 billion won at once, so her heart shook. Even after spending this much money, there was still a long way to go.

I can’t believe I’m able to use all the sales figures for “The Guardian’s Garden”

I was deeply moved to think of the past when I had to be cursed like a bonus by my boss for having little money. I felt really great.

“Number 8, we got 4 million.”

However, since the prize was a member of the Tan clan, it could not have ended with only 1.5 billion won.

Belita opened her small ring, and middle finger this time. If you just raised 500,000 earlier, this time it was three times the previous amount.

“No.44, we got 12 million!”

12 billion won. It was literally a loan service.

As the amount grew, the voice of the host, who had remained calm, also grew.

Yeah, I’m sure you’ll be happy. All this money will be used to turn the Tan twins into magical tools.

But how would it feel to lose the Tan twins forever?

I could spend this much money if I could make those who kidnap and sell others at their own price struggle with injustice.

“12 million. Any one?”

It is 12 billion won in Korean won. No matter how strong the Tan clan is, it would be burdensome for them to pay more than this. Belita pressed her robe closer into her.

“We will close the bid for 12 million for Number 44!”

The host’s excited voice rang through the auction house. A sigh of relief came out because she was prepared for a higher amount.

‘No, but why is her number 44?’

Belita looked down at the wooden number plate in her hand with a gruesome air. I can’t believe there are two death numbers four attached. That’s a very bad number.

Obviously it went my way, but this ominous number made my back ache for no reason. Belita rubbed the goosebumps in her back and turned to take the Tan twins.

☆*: .。.  .。.:*☆

“Thank you, Customer. I hope you had a great time. Please visit us again.”

Belita, who had been handed over the fierce growling Tan twins, thought they wanted to punch me in the face as the manager handed over their leash.

Enjoy it while it lasts.

Doesn’t it sound like they’re saying that they should feel the happiness of the moment because the Tan clan will come back into their hands soon?

Bad luck bestowed by the heavens will be given to the Olden who committed illegal activities

“……hmm.”

But this wasn’t the time to stare at them.

As soon as she turned around, the twins’ eyes were so ferocious that Belita almost lost strength in her legs. If it weren’t for the restraining harness that clamps their neck and wrist, he would have killed her and fled immediately.

However, she was still safe because it the magic tool inside their body would explode the moment they injured its owner.

Yeah, so far.

She has to move quickly to convey her good intentions of saving them.

Belita turned to the map and headed for an alley like a secret passage that people would never find. No matter how well-informed you are, you won’t know beyond the hole hidden behind the wooden board.

“Is there anyone around? You guys can sense it.”

Only after arriving at a quiet place did Belita ask, but the twins were wary of her without answering. Fortunately, no one seemed to be there, so she quickly drew her left forearm with a dagger.

Her white arm was covered with blood in an instant.

“It hurts more than I thought.”

I was only going to cut a little, but I cut the wound too deeply because I had never touched a sword before. Belita, who pressed her arms trembling with pain, reached for the twins who raised their guard to maximum.

Then they yanked out their hands, showing their teeth, and thanks to this, Belita’s blood was buried in the restraints filled on her wrist.

Rumble!

At that moment, there was a loud noise, and the ball lost its light and fell to the floor. Belita also touched their necks once as the startled twins stiffened. It took them less than a minute to regain their freedom.

“Fortunately, it works well.”

Belita was greatly relieved. A separate tool was needed to release the restraining tool, but there was another method of releasing the restraining tool used in Ananta.

It’s the pure blood of the Olden family.

Only those who obtained the blood of the snake, which symbolized Ananta, could be completely liberated.

“……!”

“Ah.”

The twins instantly looked down at their empty wrist, and fumbled around their necks. Belita spread her blood-soaked hand before them.

“See? With my blood, I can release the harness. So I’d like to ask you a favor…….”

But since she let them go, she thought they would lower my guard.

Belita realized how complacent she was.

The eyes of the freed beasts seemed to shine, and soon they grabbed Belita’s wounded arm and pulled it. Belita opened her eyes wide.

“It smells.”

“It smells fishy.”

The twins put their noses to the bleeding forearms. Belita, who was completely buried between the twins, who were bigger than her, held her breath.

“It smells disgusting.”

“It smells like a snake.”

“It smells like the man who caught us.”

“Ananta is here.”

Snake, Ananta.

The word hardened Belita’s body. The twins, who were staring as if to remove all Belita’s bones, hit the final wedge.

“I’m hungry.”

“I want to eat.”
