"Ladies and gentlemen, as the first group of slaves has already been sold. We will announce the second slave group. This time, only one slave will be sold at a time. I can guarantee you will not be disappointed" Lillie commented after the previous slaves were taken away by the buyers.

The lights on the stage were turned off and lit again at the same time. But the lights were focused on only two locations.

One of the lights was illuminating Lillie and the other group of lights illuminated a middle-aged woman. The middle-aged woman was not considered ugly, but she was also not pretty. Her appearance was well below average.

Her face had old age wrinkles and a lot of white hair, her eyes had no brightness of life, the body was thin and dry, she looked like someone who died, but he is still alive. Despite being middle-aged, she looks like an old woman.

A person like her does not seem to be the type of slave the market sells at auctions.

As it was being auctioned, the middle-aged woman had something that could attract buyers' attention. The slave market never sells an ordinary slave during the second round of the auction.

The middle-aged woman surprised the customers. None of them knows what kind of skill or status the middle-aged woman had to be sold on the second batch of slaves.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I know that her appearance is a little bit out of the auction's standards. But she has something really worth, her skills. We believe that you will be satisfied with her ability despite her appearance" Lillie knows that selling the middle-aged woman will be difficult. But she had to try because it was her bosses' orders.

"Ladies and gentlemen. This is the slave's information." Lillie waved her hand and an image was projected.

The middle-aged woman's information was shown to all customers.

All customers were surprised to see that the middle-aged woman is someone over 200 and her skills were all related to the water and ice element. The most incredible was her combined skills, a person like her is very rare to meet.

The question that everyone had in their minds is: How does a strong person like her become a slave. Or rather, how did it become that way?

No one knows the answer to that question, not even the slave market.

"I have a question about the slave!!!" An arrogant and authoritative voice echoed through the auditorium. From the tone of the voice, it is possible to know that he is a man.

Everyone looked towards the source of the voice and saw that it came from one of the VIP rooms. The big shots showed interest in the middle-aged woman, but there are some problems with that.

"Dear customer, what is your question about the slave?" Lillie was a little nervous about this. She knows that everyone had doubts about this middle-aged woman but she doesn't know how to answer all the doubts.

"I want to know how did this slave become that way? She seems to be lifeless, this is no different than a dead person" The man commented.

Before buying the slave, he needs to know more information about it.

"Dear customer, we also don't know how it got that way. When she was sold to us, she was already that way. Even the person who sold us doesn't know what happened to her. According to his words, this woman was found somewhere in the middle of the forest towards Khelum City. When the other slave seller met her on the way, she was already like that" Lillie commented. She doesn't know if that was true or not, she was just repeating the things the manager asked her to say.

"..." The person in the VIP room did not comment on Lillie's words. He seemed to be thinking about it.

Not just him, everyone at the place was thinking about it.

(How is it that a powerful woman like her is in a low-level area like this?) None of them had the answer to that question.

"Ladies and gentlemen, do you have any further questions about this slave?" Lillie asked the audience. She didn't want to do that, but that was the procedure, and she needs to follow it.

"..." No one answered Lillie's words. This made her a little uncomfortable, but she soon recovered and did her job.

"Ladies and gentlemen, as no one has any more doubts about slaves. We will start the bidding. The initial bid is five thousand gold coins, each bid must have a minimum increase of five hundred gold coins" Lillie announced.
