Shota's Isekai NTR Adventure

With a single pull, he pulled the cloth off the case and revealed what was inside.

When it was revealed, everyone couldn’t help but gasp.

That included me since I recognized the item that he had just brought out.

This was a sword that was displayed in this case that was as tall as him. It was a jet black sword that had irregular juts out of the side of the blade, making it look very sinister.

This was a blade that looked very dangerous.

But because of this unique blade, it was very easy to recognize what this item was.

It was one of the Seven Cursed Swords.

This was the Pain Sword Durand.

But for me who had a deeper knowledge of this world than normal people, I couldn’t help finding it very strange that Durand appeared in this place.

That was because I knew where it was supposed to appear…

This was an item that was supposed to appear from a dungeon that spawned not far away from the capital. This was a dungeon that was supposed to appear in three years from now, a dungeon that had caused a disaster for the kingdom.

This had been considered a major event in the noble quest line.

So what was this sword doing here?

It should have been in that dungeon…

No, that dungeon didn’t exist yet, so this sword shouldn’t have existed either since it was generated by that dungeon as loot.

First there was Merlin’s bag and now there was Durand…there were just too many things that appeared that shouldn’t have been here…

I couldn’t help feeling more and more confused about all of this.

However, it only took a bit of thinking to realize what was happening.

It was all because I was in the past that I encountered these things. These items existed in the world even before the events that I had experienced, so there was a history to them.

Durand was a sword that had been famous for generations along with the rest of the Seven Cursed Swords, so it wasn’t as if it just existed in that dungeon.

The reason why the player couldn’t get it before was that the code of the game didn’t spawn this item before it was time for it to spawn. So in the game, this item only existed when the dungeon appeared.

But now that this game world had become a real world and this was the past of that real world, it was only natural that these items appeared here…

So someone must have won Merlin’s bag here and then handed it to the eighth prince.

If that was the case though…then did that mean that the dungeon that appeared wasn’t actually a random event?

Someone must have bought Durand today and they would have been the one that caused the incident in the future. Or they would have lost Durand to someone else and that person might have caused the incident in the future.

In short, this meant that the dungeon hadn’t appeared at random like the game had presented.

There was some kind of backstory for why it had appeared and I was now a part of that backstory.

It really was a surreal feeling, like lifting the curtains and seeing all the careful preparation made behind the scenes. It was a feeling of being able to change the story before it was written.

This was a feeling that I wasn’t use to, but it was an empowering feeling.

If I were to buy Durand before it was used in whatever incident created that dungeon, wouldn’t I be able to save myself quite a bit of trouble?

This was when I had the ability to pay however much I wanted to pay for this sword.

I had an unlimited black card from the fourth prince…

I could only apologize to the fourth prince on this matter since I had made up my mind to buy this sword.

If this would save me the trouble of having to deal with it, I wouldn’t hesitate.

After he pulled off the cloth, the auctioneer could hear the gasps and see the reactions on the faces of the crowd. As he saw this, he revealed a faint smile before saying, ”It seems like the guests recognize this item, so there’s no need for an introduction. Since everyone recognizes how valuable this item is, we will start the auction without delay.”

He walked back in front of the podium and said, ”The starting price for this item will be ten thousand gold coins and each bid must increase by an increment of a thousand gold coins. Now, do we have any…”

Before he could finish his words, there was a voice that rang out through the auction hall.

”A hundred thousand gold coins!”

It wasn’t my voice that rang out.

This was a voice that came from my side.

I didn’t need to look over to see who it was that said this.

It was the eldest prince who had stood up in front of everyone and made this bid.

When the people saw that it was the eldest prince, they all revealed ugly expressions on their faces.

This was different from the first item where they had just given up as soon as the eldest prince made a bid.

There were many of them that looked like they still wanted to make a bid when they saw that it was the eldest prince. It was just that they were hesitating as they were considering the pros and cons of this.

But in the end, there was still someone that made a bid.

”One hundred and ten thousand gold coins.”

”Two hundred thousand gold coins.”

As soon as that person made that bid, the eldest prince immediately doubled his original bid and suppressed them.

Once he did that, it was no longer an issue of just his status, but also an issue of how much money he was willing to throw at this.

This was not something that most nobles could compare to.

So it didn’t seem like anyone would be able to bid against the eldest prince.
