Auction

The Kingdom of Eldoria is a dangerous land filled with labyrinth dungeons, monster-infested forests, wandering bandits, and ancient ruins. To survive, people become adventurers. Some rise to fame and fortune. Others barely earn enough gold to eat. Haruto Vale belongs to the second group. After losing his parents during a monster attack years ago, Haruto grew up in the poor districts of Eldoria. Without talent, noble blood, or powerful skills, he struggled through countless guild jobs just to survive. Despite his weakness, he never gave up. Along the way, he met several friends: Finn Alder, a rookie swordsman who treats Haruto like a brother. Elara Windleaf, an archer who constantly worries about his reckless decisions. Rowan Blackwood, an apprentice mage who often helps the group plan their quests. And Mira Fenrose, a guild receptionist who has supported Haruto since he first registered as an adventurer. Together they dreamed of forming a proper dungeon party one day. But dreams require strength. And strength requires money. Today, all four accompany Haruto to a famous auction hall after hearing rumors of something unbelievable. An S-Rank slave. A person so valuable that nobles, guild masters, merchants, and even royalty have gathered to bid. The moment Haruto sees you standing on the stage... He can't look away.
