A policeman pulls you over on the highway, and walks up to the window of your car. He asks for your license and registration. You give it to him since you're a law abiding citizen. You ask him why he pulled you over, as you haven't broken any road laws. He says 'one moment' and walks to the back of your car. The officer proceeds to take out his baton and smash your tails lights. He then comes back to the window and says 'I pulled you over because your tail lights are out'. You panic and have no idea what to do in this type of situation. The officer says that he'll let you off this once, but you have to pay the fine in power stones. Oh, and enjoy the chapter!)

POV Royal Guard Captain

We've cleansed the city of every Syndicate member, and secured every location. It's finally time to go to his highnesses side and make sure that he remains safe. As we arrived near the Hotel, a letter appeared in my hand. It was written by the prince and says to surround the perimeter of the hotel and wait for the order to enter. I don't like this, but the princes' orders have to be followed. We meet up with the men from the Bestia Kingdom and surround the building. His highness better be unharmed, or I'll torture anyone that laid a hand on him.

POV Lily Aldaine

Why is he here? He's supposed to be back in the capital safe and sound, not in some basement being auctioned off to the highest bidder. Did the king know about this, and didn't inform me? No that can't be true. He would get nothing out of it, and he can't keep track of everyone. I don't know how he got here, but I'll save him no matter what. I just hope the princes' plan works, and everything goes well.

POV Syrin

It's almost time for me to make my appearance. I just have to wait for the right moment.

"Now, the moment you've all been waiting for. The slave women!" The crowd becomes noisy with wolf whistles and clapping. "Yes, we sell only the very best. Anyone who's bought from us can attest to that." She pauses, as everyone in the room ogles the defenseless slave woman. One of them seems to be similar to the lion man, as she's drugged and wrapped in chains. The slave woman all have sad and dejected faces. I guess I shouldn't let this go on much further. I'm starting to get bored with the auction anyway.

I was hoping for some sort of binding weapon made for mages. Like a ring that boosts magic, or some type of wand, but sadly nothing like that showed up. I checked the system and found that nothing like that exists in this world. Maybe I can make it somehow in the future, as it seems unfair that fighters get cool binding weapons and mages don't.

"It's time to make my grand entrance. Souei, inform my forces to sweep and clear the building after I make my entrance." I order and look over at Lily. "Would you like to join me, or watch from here?" I ask.

"I would like to join you if you don't mind?" She replies.

"Of course not. The more the merrier." I say and turn to Souei. "Get in my shadow and teleport Rem, Lily, and I to the stage. Oh, and make it flashy. It's not every day that I get to make an entrance like this."

"Yes, Master." He answers stoically as usual and enters my shadow. We then disappear from the VIP room.

"Let's start the auction with one of our sexy ladies, shall we?" The auctioneer announces. The room becomes quiet with anticipation, as everyone is wondering which beautiful woman will be auctioned off first. Before the auctioneer could continue though, a tornado of black shadows formed on the stage. The room becomes darker, as the spinning of the tornado quickens. It then expands and dissipates, revealing three figures now on the stage. The first is a young boy with red hair and red eyes. He's dressed impeccably, as any high ranking Noble would. To the left of him is a cute maid with blue hair, and to the right of him is a beautiful black haired woman with wolf ears and tail.

"Good evening, Criminals." I greet them with an innocent smile. "It's me the crowned prince. It's an honor to be in such an unscrupulous place such as this." I play the role of a sweet six-year-old. "I recently found out that you all were holding a super-secret auction. Well, my mommy said that secrets are bad, so I'm here to arrest you for keeping them." The room becomes quiet for a moment, and a second later the room is filled with laughter. "Oh, I'm also arresting you for human trafficking, slavery, and all-around criminal activities." My demeanor changes as I list the crimes. The innocent six-year-old disappears, and the room goes quiet again.

"Why don't we go backstage to speak of this privately?" The auctioneer says as guards enter the stage to escort me to the back.

"Mommy said not to go anywhere with strangers." I say and the guards move forward to drag me off the stage. "I guess we'll have to do this the hard way." I shake my head. "Rem, why don't you test out your flail?"

Rem rushes forward and activated her Oni bloodline. A single white horn appears on her head, as she rushes at the guards. She shoots ice spears from one of her hands impaling two of the guards. Rem then rushes at the remaining guards and bashed them into mush with her flail. She did all of this with a crazed smile on her face. Beautiful and terrifying.

As the last guard that entered the stage drops dead, the doors to the auction hall burst open. My forces swarm into the room with their weapons drawn, and mages ready to fire whatever magic they have. The participants of the auction start to panic, as they have no way out without fighting. From the stage I see the doors of every VIP room burst open, and more of my men and woman securing each room. The hall is silent as everyone is deciding if they should fight or run somehow.

"I see the gears turning in every one of your heads, so let's get a few things clear before you make the wrong move." I say drawing everyone's attention. "I have over a thousand soldiers combing through this building. Three hundred of those are from the Royal Guard, seven hundred from the city guard, and one hundred from the Bestia Kingdom. You have absolutely no possible way of leaving here alive, so I advise you all to surrender. At least that way you live to fight another day, or you can attack my forces and die. Your all criminals anyway, so you won't be missed. I'll give you all one minute to make your decision." I say and Rem brings me a chair from below the stage. I sit and wait for them to decide.

"If we surrender what happens?" One man asked from the crowd.

"Depending on your crime you'll either be sentenced to jail, the mines, or death. I may come up with more imaginative punishments later on though." I explain and everyone doesn't look happy about that. As they're contemplating their next move, a whale of a man enters the stage.

"Your Highness, there seems to be a mistake. We haven't committed any crimes. Such things are beneath a Noble such as myself." The whale waddles forward and said.

"Hmm, you're Wilo Bellbottoms, right?" I pretend to not know his name.

"Master, I think it was Silo belltole." Rem plays along with her superficial politeness.

"Ahh, you're right Rem. How could I have forgotten? He's some low-rank Noble right?" I say in a bored tone and Milo seems to be getting redder and redder by the second. I think I actually see a vein in his forehead throbbing.

"YOU LITTLE SHIT! I'M NOT SOME LOW RANKED NOBLEMAN! MY NAME IS MILO BELLRICH, AND I'M AN EARL!" He screams at the top of his lungs. Messing with people is more fun than I thought it would be.
