The supporting character's harem is very normal

Chapter 256 5,000,001 gold coins

The whole hall was startled by Lathel’s words, and they turned their attention towards him.

The host was also surprised, but he did not immediately object. He glanced at VIP room 1, and when he saw guest number 28, who was his manager, he was startled.

However, she nodded slightly, so he breathed a sigh of relief.

Rolen saw that the person who had just appeared was Lathel, and a feeling of hope suddenly appeared in her heart.

‘So… up until now, he was the one who wanted to buy me?’

‘But… Why did he want to buy me? If so, do I need to betray him and run away?’

‘I don’t want to run away; I want to live in his castle, eat well, and sleep well…’

Rolen thought of many things, but then she shook her head, trying to maintain the belief that she was a member of the “Sky Guardians” and that she was unable to betray Alec.

However, in Rolen’s heart, there was hope that Lathel would buy her, and he would not let her escape.

Rolen’s eyes were teary as if she were about to cry, her hands tightly grasping the bars of the cage as she stared at Lathel with anticipation.

Lathel also looked towards Rolen and gave her a reassuring smile.

‘Lathel…’ Rolen silently called Lathel’s name in her heart. At this moment, she suddenly wished that her master was not Alec but Lathel.

“Sorry… Guest number 27: What do you mean?” The host asked respectfully.

Lathel glanced around the hall, and when he did not see Alec, he felt that something was wrong.

However, he still smiled and said: “I think we should change the auction method for that girl a bit.”

“If you continue to raise the price, I’m afraid it will make everyone think that your staff is intentionally raising the price at this auction.”

“To ensure fairness, I think… we should have a blind auction.”

The host frowned upon hearing that, however, Lathel spoke very reasonably. This girl’s price increased too fast and too unreasonably. If it continued to increase like that, everyone would think that his staff was cheating, and trying to force?other customers to increase their prices.

That will not only affect the reputation of this auction house but also his income.

However, he was not the one who decided this matter; the person who could make this decision was sitting with the guest.

Lathel continued: “I want to introduce a new auction method. If you agree, I can continue to participate. If you don’t agree, then I give up.”

“Also remember…” Lathel suddenly glanced towards Miconia: “She was the one who recently offered a price to that Beast girl. If I stop, the girl will have to buy the girl.”

Hearing that, Miconia frowned. She realised that Lathel was not a fool: ‘It seems… he has realised that I am part of the auction.’ 𝘳𝑎.𝗇t

‘That’s good, I want to see what better method he will come up with in the end.’

Miconia waved her hand, the host nodded and said: “Please tell guest number 27 the method. If it is reasonable, I will agree with your auction method.”

Lathel nodded, secretly happy. He said: “Good! The method is very simple; I feel that the value of 5,000,000 gold coins is suitable for that Beast tribe girl.”

“So… Take 5,000,000 gold coins as the lowest price, each person will then write down the price they want to offer on a piece of paper, then give it to the auction room staff.”

“Whoever offers the highest price, the girl belongs to that person. Of course, this form of blind auction is only used once, if anyone loses, they do not have the right to continue offering a higher price.”

“In order to maintain fairness and the honour of the auction room, think about it. Besides this method, there is no better method.”

Everyone was startled when they heard that, and they all agreed that the method Lathel said was very reasonable.

No one would know how much the other person offers, as everyone will want to offer the highest price .

Thus, even if an auction room employee disguises himself as a customer here, he cannot cheat and intentionally push up the price of the item.

The host also felt that it was reasonable, after all, the price of 10,000,000 gold coins was too high.

Although the price of 5,000,000 gold coins was only half of the previous price, it still greatly surpassed the value of this girl.

Seeing Miconia nodding, the auctioneer also nodded and said: “Guest number 27 is right. To protect the honour of this auction house, I agree with his opinion.”

Then, he waved his hand, and ten auction room employees handed out papers to everyone present so they could participate in the purchase of Rolen.

Naturally, Lathel is also involved in this. However, he came up with this method because he was waiting for Alec to appear.

Since the start of the Rolen auction, Alec has never appeared, and this made Lathel suspect that Alec is the one who auctioned Rolen.

However, Lathel immediately rejected this thought. Even if Alec is the type of ‘Dark Male Lead’, he felt that there was no way he could do that.

That’s why Lathel decided to use this method so that Alec could come and save Rolen, so… Rolen didn’t have to go to his house anymore.

Moreover, this will make Rolen realise that her real ‘white prince’ was Alec.

‘Tch! I am truly a model citizen, I am helping the male lead, Rolen, and helping Rolen escape being sold.’

‘Hahahaha… God, Dandite, you should award me a certificate of merit for excellent supporting character, along with a medal.’

Lathel took the piece of paper, frowned, and thought for a long time before deciding to write down the number 5,000,001 gold coins.

Anyway, Alec will definitely save her, so he doesn’t need to raise the price.

Miconia glanced at Lathel. She didn’t see what he had written, so she frowned.

A moment later, everyone returned all the papers to the auction room staff.

The host started to open the paper; his eyes showed surprise, his opening speed was very fast; but he suddenly stopped and placed the paper he held in his hand on the table.

Then he brought the entire paper tray back to the staff and sighed.

Lathel saw that and felt confused: ‘Could it be that Alec’s paper has already been found?’

‘But… the host should have felt happy because the male lead offered the highest price to buy Rolen, why did his expression look like he was so disappointed?’

Suddenly, an uneasy feeling appeared in Lathel’s heart. However, this feeling always appeared, so he no longer cared about it.

The host took a deep breath and said: “After checking all the papers, this Beast clan girl will belong to…”

Lathel took a sip of tea while feeling extremely comfortable because he could safely watch Rolen return to Alec.

“Belongs to guest number 27 in VIP room 1 for 5,000,001 gold coins.”

“PFF!!!” Lathel immediately spit out the sip of tea he had just drunk. He looked at the host in surprise and confusion.

The host smiled and said: “Congratulations to guest number 27; this Beast tribe girl will belong to you.”

The auctioneer felt disappointed, he thought someone would offer 10,000,000 gold coins.

However, for him, 5,000,001 gold coins were more than enough, as they surpassed the value of the Beast girl.

At first, the host thought that the highest value of this girl would be 2,500,000 gold coins, but in the end, she was sold for 5,000,000 gold coins, which is double the price he thought.

If the auctioneer was happy, Lathel would be startled and confused. He hastily pulled back the curtain and shouted: “No way, why did you only take my piece of paper in this entire hall?”

“Because…” The host waved his hand, and the staff dumped all the papers on the table.

The host picked up a random piece of paper and opened it, then looked at Lathel: “Everyone doesn’t want to buy her.”

Lathel: “…”

He saw a piece of paper in the hands of the auctioneer. There was absolutely nothing written on the piece of paper.

“Why?! Doesn’t everyone want to buy her?”

“Huh!” Miconia heard Lathel’s words and snorted in contempt: “Fool, everyone realises that the price of 5,000,000 gold coins is too high to buy a Beast Race woman.”

“But… her level is 50, isn’t that enough?”

“Your thinking is really simple…” Miconia smiled contemptuously: “No matter what, she is still a Beast race, although in this place, all races can live normally and peacefully with each other. But the Beast Race’s hatred for humanity is still very great.”

“Anyone here wouldn’t want to keep a slow-burning bimb next to them; that’s why her value is so low.”

Hearing that, Lathel took a deep breath. He remembered that among the servants in the castle there were many Beast Race women, could it be that…

He suddenly shivered in fear. Luckily, he didn’t think about sleeping with those maids; otherwise, one night he wouldn’t even know how he died.

Hearing that, Akna frowned. She glanced at Miconia threateningly, but Miconia pretended not to care, she only looked at Lathel.

Lathel was angry, and he looked around the hall to find Alec.

‘Strange, could Alec really abandon Rolen and not care about her?’

‘Or… is it because of the ‘comet card’ that caused her to fall into this situation?’

Lathel started to feel tired, but since he bought Rolen, he needed to be responsible for her.

‘Okay, buying her and setting her free is fine; I don’t need her to repay the favour.’

‘Alec, you should thank me; I just saved your woman. Damn it! Where the hell are you now?’

Knock! Knock!

There was a knock on the door. Akna opened the door and immediately saw an auction room employee carrying Rolen into the room.

“Young master…”
