Chapter 319: Never Have I Seen Such Brazen People
In the evening, Karoso found Saaya.
"You want me to take you into the auction as a follower?" Saaya looked at Karoso in confusion.
Previously, when Karoso approached him, Saaya had felt like he was facing a great threat and had sparred with Karoso over some strategic lessons.
In that match, Saaya lost countless brain cells without even knowing it.
He really didn’t want to get too involved with Karoso, but Karoso was still his so-called younger brother, so he couldn’t just ignore him.
Saaya was very curious about how thick-skinned Karoso could be. Their relationship was so bad, it was almost like a knife fight, yet he still had the audacity to come to him.
"Well, last time I got into a fight with my attendants, it was a bit embarrassing. I still have things I want to buy, so I can only ask Second Brother for help." Karoso calmly began to chat.
"Ha, you still know what embarrassment is!" Saaya scoffed, pointing at Karoso. "Do you realize that our Canglang Province has embarrassed itself all the way to Laria? You are supposed to be our father’s most talented son, the face of Canglang Province, and yet you can fight with your own attendants! How can you dare to bring someone like that out? I think you need to retake the lessons on how to manage your subordinates!"
"You know, if someone wants to cooperate with our Canglang Province, just seeing your actions that day could ruin the chance because they would lose confidence in Canglang Province!"
"And you didn’t even wear a mask. If you wore one, people wouldn’t know who you are and wouldn’t find it so embarrassing…"
Saaya kept talking and talking, leaving Karoso’s ears feeling sore.
"So, Second Brother, you will help me, won’t you?" Karoso quietly put his hand into his bag.
Saaya was startled; this guy doesn’t really want to beat me up, does he?
In close combat, I am not this pervert’s match…
In the Knight Tournament, Saaya did not miss a single match. Karoso defeated many knights of the same rank, and even without using Emperor Goufuh or Mysterious Guardian, he was still overpowering the Death Knight, The Favored One. Is this really the kind of strength one should have at this age? If this were a novel, Karoso’s power would have already broken the scales!
"By the way, what do you want to buy? I can get it for you," Saaya said.
He really did not want to be close to Karoso; it was too dangerous. He never knew when Karoso might stab him in the back.
As for stabbing Karoso?
This thing dared to approach me, so it must have made all the necessary preparations!
"Okay!" Karoso eagerly took out a list.
Saaya looked at the list, then at Karoso.
The things on this list, they won’t be a trap, right?
If I buy it for him, will I get into trouble?
Wait a minute, if I take him to buy it, isn’t that the same? They will definitely be watching me, not him!
By the way, after we finish buying and go outside, I can reveal his identity and then not leave with him.
Anyway, he only asked me to take him inside to hide his identity during the auction.
Ha, if you want to trick me, you’re still too inexperienced!
"Ahem, I’m just joking with you." Saaya said with a smile that didn’t reach his eyes, "I’ll take you there."
"That’s fine." Karoso put the list away.
"However, I need to inform my father about this."
"Okay."
……
Saaya made full preparations, and together they set off to the auction.
Aileen wore a beautiful blue dress, her hair styled in long curls, and she was adorned with expensive jewelry, accompanied by a tall knight.
That knight was the one who had been redeemed by Karoso with money.
Karoso did not tell the knight that he had bought him; instead, he said Aileen bought him. Aileen did not buy the knight to make him her lover, but out of admiration for his courage to fight for his country in battle, which is why she purchased him at the auction.
After hearing this, the knight was filled with gratitude and vowed to serve Princess Aileen for life.
Aileen was also very grateful to Karoso for allowing the knight to keep his dignity.
"Dear Princess Aileen Ishtar, welcome to Corleone Manor." Rio smiled as he greeted Aileen, "It is a great honor for us that you have come to our auction."
Aileen had worn some disguise before, but now she took off her armor and put on her princess dress, looking like a completely different person.
Especially her aura, which had changed dramatically.
The knight stood beside her, hand resting on his sword, loyal and true.
Although he had been defeated and captured before, at least he had the courage to go to battle and prove himself. He wasn’t lost in fame; he was a worthy knight.
"It’s my first time here, and I don’t know what fun things there are," Aileen tried to calm herself.
Wearing this outfit made her feel especially uncomfortable.
She felt that even the cheapest knight’s armor was better than this dress.
But for the important plan tonight, she had to make sacrifices.
She remembered what Karoso had told her: to pull out the roots of a tumor, she must temporarily suppress her sense of justice; everything was part of the plan.
"Your Highness, I promise you won’t be disappointed here, please." Rio wisely chose not to mention what happened last time.
The prince didn’t come with Karoso… are they having a fight?
It makes sense, last time Karoso almost hurt her badly, it’s strange they would come together.
Clearly, Rio didn’t pay much attention to the two of them; otherwise, he wouldn’t think like this knowing they hugged each other at the arena.
"Isn’t that the item from the last auction?"
"That male servant?"
"Oh my, someone is actually using him as a knight?"
"Has he already been tamed…?"
"Isn’t that the princess? I can’t believe she would buy a male servant!"
"The eight knights who serve the Princess have a special bond with her…"
"Shh, be quiet."
The voices around him were especially loud, and the knight couldn’t help but grip the sword at his waist tightly.
"A knight’s honor is protected by his sword," Aileen said, glancing at him. "Where you lose it, you must pick it up again. Once you truly become a knight, you won’t care about their hurtful words."
"Yes, Your Highness!" The knight lowered his head.
"Oh, isn’t this Princess Aileen?" a chubby middle-aged man beamed as he approached Aileen, placing his right hand on his chest and bowing respectfully.
Aileen lifted her dress and returned the bow.
"Uncle Breteuil, it’s been a long time," Aileen said with a smile. "I snuck out to play, but I thought I needed a proper identity to come here, so I had to tell Uncle Benson I was coming to Laria."
"Good, good, good! Enjoy yourself today; you won’t be disappointed here," Marquess Breteuil said with a smile. "After the auction, there will be a grand ball with many fine young men from different countries; you can meet a lot of them."
"Thank you, Uncle Breteuil…" Aileen struggled to hide her disgust.
It was this fat man who almost turned red-eyed at the last auction for the fairy sisters.
