Chapter 225 : Purchase

After leaving the Dungeon, the group immediately headed to the guild to exchange their mana stones for money. After doing so, they went to the Fertility Hostess. Initially, they thought about going home and bringing Hestia with them. However, Yuki informed them that the house was under construction, and Hestia was now with Hephaestus.

There was no need for them to detour for the lazy goddess.

With the Champion's fever in control, Yuki wasted no time in building his ideal home. With Kurumi now part of the family, their current small space was no longer sufficient. Sleeping in the same bed, despite being comfortable, wasn't practical anymore, especially when the girls desired privacy.

For instance, Inori occasionally hinted at wanting to explore forbidden territory, but with Hestia and Est present, that was impossible. To avoid such situations, Yuki decided to build a mansion where the future family members could live comfortably.

In this mansion, Yuki wouldn't worry about intrusions and could visit Inori's room whenever he pleased without fear of being disturbed.

He also made sure to inform Kurumi about the maids. Being his original, Kurumi had a special fondness for animals, especially cats. When Yuki mentioned the existence of cat girls, her eyes sparkled with excitement.

Upon entering the tavern, their first action was to embrace their favorite waitress.

"What are you doing, nya?! Let me go, nya!"

Trying to escape Kurumi's grasp, Anya struggled, but no matter how hard she fought, Kurumi didn't let go. She exerted more force, caressing Anya's body and fluffy ears, bringing a smile to Kurumi's face.

"Nya~ come and touch as much as you want, dear, nya."

Chloe, on the other hand, seeing her beloved shota embracing her, didn't hesitate to open her arms wider and return the hug—a completely opposite response to Anya, who was struggling in Kurumi's embrace.

"Nya~ you smell good."

Taking deep breaths, Chloe didn't hold back from inhaling Yuki's rich scent. Yuki, in response, did the same while burying his face in her modest chest.

"Hehehe~"

"Not fair!"

Seeing the mischievous smiles of the duo, Syr puffed her cheeks and joined the fun by hugging Yuki.

"She's so cute! Yuki-san... Can I have her?"

After touching Anya here and there, Kurumi stared intently at Yuki, waiting for his response. To her, having this cat girl here was a waste; it would be better to take her home.

"I'm not a pet, nya!"

Feeling offended, Anya protested. Her body had been violated by this strong woman. Even though she wouldn't object to someone like Yuki, who was cute and had a warm aura, this woman was the complete opposite, emitting an aura reeking of blood, sending shivers down Anya's spine.

"That's a good question... Let me see if it's possible."

Responding with his head trapped between two pairs of breasts, Yuki pondered deeply. He was tempted to take this girl home. With her cuteness, Yuki could entrust her with the cleaning of his new mansion under construction and have quality time with her.

"Nee~ oneesan, do you want to come with me?"

Looking at her with teary eyes, Yuki unleashed his most powerful cuteness attack, causing Chloe to receive a critical hit. Although drool almost spilled from her mouth, she managed to recover.

"Nya~ Champion-sama, I'm not that cheap~"

"Really? Even for me?"

Still not giving up, Yuki continued his attack. Chloe resisted with all her might, but in the end, she looked at Mia. If this continued, she was sure Mia wouldn't refuse, and she would be taken as the shota's pet.

"I'm sorry, Champion-sama, but they're not for sale."

Sighing, Mia shook her head. These troublesome girls were her waitresses, and although they gave her a headache, they were good at their jobs. Losing them would be a significant loss.

However, the way Yuki was rejected made Kurumi raise an eyebrow. Something clicked in her mind, and her smile widened.

"I offer 10 million valis for this girl~!"

"I'll go 20 and double the offer if this ashen-haired girl is included."

Not wanting to give up, Kurumi made a bold offer, followed by Yuki, who took these two women who had him in their arms by the waist.

Needless to say, this surprised everyone in the tavern. What started as a hug now turned into a sale of waitresses.

Anya even opened her mouth since Kurumi didn't let her go and even wanted to buy her, as if she were a cat at an animal exhibition.

"They're not for sale."

"Mama mia, nya!"

Denying again, Mia blinked as she didn't expect these two to play along. Even Anya protested, as she was being treated like a slave at this moment.

"30 million! And I'll take her with the clothes included."

"80 million! And the girl in the kitchen is also included."

Clenching their teeth, both Kurumi and Yuki made a substantial offer. Earning that much money wasn't easy, even if their clones spread throughout the dungeon. It would take at least a few days to earn that money.

"Do I also, nya?!"

Jumping out of the kitchen, May almost stumbled when Yuki mentioned her. After all, she was enjoying this bidding game, but being called as well didn't feel right. Well, Yuki is handsome and all, but still being sold didn't feel good.

"Hehehe~"

"Luroine-san, nya!"

Protesting to her friend who laughed at this, May stomped the floor hard.

"Sorry, but no..."

Mia, on the other hand, refused again, but she also felt reluctant to do so since 110 million valis was not a small amount.

"250 million! All three girls, and I'll also take the brown-haired human and the blonde Elf."

Pointing at Lunoire, Yuki's eyes were bloodshot. This was no longer a game but a fierce purchase.

Lunoire, being pointed at, coughed loudly; even she was now up for sale.

Ryuu also took a deep breath, as even she was being marked by Yuki.

"Pervert..."

Muttering, Ryuu watched as Yuki winked at her before looking back at Mia.

"50 million! It's my final offer."

Meanwhile, Kurumi continued hugging Anya, staring at Mia with determination, as if saying she would take this girl home no matter what.

"...."

"300 million valis?! That's insane!"

"Darn it! This is absurd, a catwoman isn't worth that much!"

"Exactly! Exactly!"

Hearing these absurd prices, the tavern customers began to share opinions, even drawing conclusions about who deserved to be bought at that price and who wasn't worth it.

"You bastards!"

Hearing their whispers, Lunoire and May couldn't help but frown. They were not objects, though they couldn't deny finding it amusing to play along.

"Mama mia, she said no, nya! Give up, nya!"

Still trying to escape Anya's arms, Anya looked triumphantly at Kurumi, confident that she would never go with this woman in a million years.

"Fufu... Are you sure~?"

Smiling sweetly, Kurumi's eyes gleamed.

"Of course, nya! Mama Mia will never accept, nya! Right?"

Turning her head, Anya's mocking smile couldn't help but freeze. After all, Mia now had a hand on her chin, and Yuki handed her a bag full of money.

"What's going on?"

Seeing Anya's gaze, Mia just tilted her head while taking the bag, thanking Yuki for his purchase.

"Kihihi, it seems your boss just made a big sale... Don't resist; I promise to take good care of you~"

Gently stroking her hair, Kurumi laughed at the misfortune of this cat girl.

"Mama Mia!!"

Of course, Anya screamed at the top of her lungs at this betrayal, and tears streamed down her face.
