Chapter 26 - Underworld Market

In the beautiful evening, the bright light streets are still busting with people and in this brightness and liveliness two people covering in black hood and wearing Pure white mask, their cloak absorbing all the light around moving with their swift movement,

There are voices like "It is the best Dark potion"

"A good drug"

" Sir you won't get this thing anywhere, this is banned in kingdom"

"Huh, it is the best illegal object Store, that you will find"

They both reach in a Dark place, a dark market that is bustling with lights and people most covering themselves,

It is night market where people mostly unlicensed people like Alchemist, mages sell their things, there are banned and dangerous product,

Most people think it is illegal market which it is but it is maintained by Royal and Nobel Authority to control the Dark and Evil minded people because the long history tell evil cannot be destroyed or kill, just control by some laws and place to maintain it,

However Underworld Market is different, the most darkest and illegal things that Royalty and Seven Nobel Families don't allowed are sell their, it is place where you can get what you don't think you will find, a place where you can get the rarest things, extremely difficult to track if you sell something there, it is a safe place for someone who have precious thing and want to sell it but can't in normal market,

Everyone know about it but the roots are deep and can shaken the Empire,

They both moving reach near a guard patrolling

" Excuse me, we lost our path" Cellena said to the patrolling guard, who after listening this came near them

" oh, I can help you, where you live" The guard ask, his eyes go from Cellena to Nebula covering in Dark cloak and mask, nearly indescribable feature

"The shinning Dark Gate house" Cellena said

After this there is a sudden shift in his demeanor " Follow Me" He said and go towards a small house and knock on it

A person came out and see them "What you want", he said but soon his eyes land on two people behind the guard

" We just came to deliver a letter" Nebula came forward and in her boy like voice said, she take out the invitation and gave it to the person who see it and nodded "come in"

Both of them enter going forward without a hint of fear, They are going a dark narrow path with lanterns on both sides, the man follow them and they on underground stairs reaching before a big gate, They feel cover by magic enchantment that can stop any sound and light,

When rach their the man stop and put a pendant on the gate, the gate glow with a light before opening on its own,

" Go, it is your destination" Cellena and Nebula see each other and nodded, they enter a hall with red carpet, it is illuminating with Magic lights,

"Quite good, I never think the interior remain the same everywhere" Nebula see around and comment

Cellena shock by this "Do, No, you came here before?" She get out of her Nobel role and uncontrollably ask

"Not here My Lady, It was other underworld Auction that attend when finding something" Nebula in her guise said

"Huh, I never though my servant will come here alone" Cellena said seriously getting annoyed because she also want to came here

"It is something important and i don't want to put you in danger My lady" Nebula with polite and sweet words said

"Ah, let's go don't delay" Cellena affected by Nebula's words can't say more so she walk fast and distract herself from it

" Here, my Lady" Nebula shout and point towards a direction different from where Cellena go telling her the place they have to go,

"you stupid servant, tell me before"

"Please Forgive me, My Lady" Nebula said, she feel internally happy by the embarrassment she feel,

After it they reach their destination the Auction hall and sat on their seats,

"And Sold" The Auctioner said holding a some kind of magic device that it.

They both sat and see towards the stage and now the today's last Normal Auction item " I represent to you the Uma Tribe Warrior "

On this words, a person came in shackles with patterns on it, a shinning collar on its neck, a big person nearly 7 feet tall with a Lizard Tattoo on his chest, body full of bruises but still standing like a mountain,

It is Uma Tribe, a person from Earth Dragon Kingdom, a warrior tribe that have strong body, can use special magic Tattoos and use Earth Magic.

"It is my first time seeing someone from Uma Tribe" Cellena said

"Yes but focus on our task, my lady" Nebula said

Cellena think about their purpose,

A little bit ago,

"So what are we going to do" Cellena ask while drowning in soft bed "I get information that today in underworld Auction house there will be some rare precious items will came"

"I know so our plan is simple, we try to buy it at any cost and if not we will steal it" Nebula said

" Huh, steal it, that place is underworld market there will be many powerful people, we can't do anything there" Cellena don't believe they can steal it

"I informed the Royal Guards, they will come afte the start of real Auction"

" What the *uck, you are a Monster" Cellena shock unconsciously said this "I am not going"

"Aren't you my best Friend?" Nebula using her beauty, make a cute face with shinning puppy eyes

Cellena can't resist it but said "I am your friend but not a suicide soldier"

" Don't worry" Nebula said

"100 Gold Coins, is there anyone else" the Auctioner said

The voice get her out of the thoughts, Cellena don't want to came but it was just that she have to,

" Sigh" She gave a sigh and said to herself "Next time I will come alone"

" As you wish, My lady" Nebula said

"Sold, this slave for 110 Gold coins" The Auctioner's voice said

Cellena see around everyone cover their face and see everyone covering their face,

" Now, Ladies and Gentleman please focus your attention, today's first Special Item"

All lights focus on a place where a cart pull by a lady came,

Everyone's eyes on it and the autioner said holding the cloth " Now Representing this Amazing item that will make any person mad for it"

He said and pull the cloth shock everyone, Nebula and Cellena shock by it, so shock that Cellena nearly blown their cover,

"Is it really n"

" It is I Think My Lady"

Cellena slowly in shock said while Nebula hastily said, their eyes shift on item
