Harem Overlord: I ALWAYS Finish Quick!
Chapter 126 Bad Memories [R-18]

Ryan walked away from the Dawn Pavilion with Joy in his hands and joy in his heart. "Today was a profitable day," Ryan muttered, looking at the new five-year-old sleeping in his arms.

'I wonder how the girls will react when they see this,' Ryan chuckled.

Ryan headed to the hotel he had booked in the more agreeable part of the city for his two-week stay.

'Although I'll just spend my nights inside my palace with a guard watching the portal in the bedroom. I still have to replace a way not to make my portal stay open while I'm inside my palace... that could be a problem.'

Arriving inside his dorm room, Ryan activated his portal and teleported into the main square that had been constructed. 'I'm glad building in here is so easy. All I have to do is think, and it appears.'

"Victoria," Ryan whispered, trying not to wake Joy.

Hearing her name, Victoria turned around, and her face lit up in a smile seeing it was Ryan.

As she was about to rush over, she abruptly paused and gasped, covering her mouth with her hand.

"W-Who's child is that?" Victoria asked, pointing a shaky finger at Joy.

"Mine," Ryan replied bluntly. "And I need you to watch her while I go out for the night."

"Oh, and she's mute."

Dumping his new servant on Victoria, Ryan called over two of his knights and had them guard the hotel room, even though he was closing the portal, 'Always got to be safe.'

'Now to get some fresh air,' Ryan thought. 'I saved a child's life today. I can take a break, right?'

Once outside his hotel room, Ryan tried to listen to the conversations around him.

"Did you hear about the auction being held tonight?" one man said.

"Yeah, I heard a noble came to town specifically for it," another responded.

"Can you believe a baron came to our little city?"

"I only believed it after I heard the auction house master acquired a rare item," the first man said.

"You've gotta be kidding. What did she get? An archfiend's essence or something?" the second man asked.

"I don't know, but rumor says she was offered at least ten times more than she paid. Can you believe she refused? Some say she has too much pride and will only sell his wares outside the auction if it gets ridiculous amounts of profit. It sounds like such an extravagant event that many rich nobles would show up to buy whatever she had for sale today."

"You mean more nobles are coming?"

"I believe our small town will even be getting a Viscount!"

"Ahh... I'm curious to see what that item turns out to be..."

'Although I doubt they will have anything amazing, I've got money to burn,' Ryan thought, bringing up his 10,000 Heavenly Credit balance to gaze at.

'Oh, I love me some money.'

===

"Do you really think this little place has found the item, Albert?" Rory asked in a whisper.

"It doesn't matter if she does," Albert said while watching the crowd gathered around the stage to watch the auction. "Our master wants us to buy whatever it is. No matter if it's that item or not."

"I hope we can get it for cheap, so it doesn't cost us too much," Rory responded.

"Me too, but let's enjoy ourselves now and see what happens. It's not like anyone here has enough Heavenly Credits to compete with us anyway."

As Albert and Rory discussed, Ryan entered the auction house wearing his usual black clothes and hooded cloak. The moment he stepped inside, the murmurs from the audience grew quiet as someone stepped on stage.

"Good evening, everyone. Tonight, we're going to start by selling a unique treasure that one of my companions acquired recently," the auctioneer began as Ryan took a seat at the back of the room near Albert and Rory.

"But before that item, we will be going through our other delectable items, starting with this lovely red-haired boy who has been raised within my family for many years. He turned fourteen yesterday, and his virginity will be sold starting at 0.1 Heavenly Credits. Do I hear 0.1 Heavenly Credits?"

The audience fell silent, seeing the young boy in front of them.

'Oh good. I thought this world was worse than I thought,' Ryan thought, seeing the crowd's reaction.

"0.2 Heavenly Credits! He's mine!" a noble screamed out.

"What? This little child has a face that even a corpse would replace charming! 0.25!" another cried out, attracting more people into bidding on him.

"I hear 0.3! Who wouldn't want to fuck this innocent little angel?" the auction master yelled.

"0.5!" someone shouted, but it didn't seem to matter since another person placed a bit right after.

'Looks like I spoke too soon.' Ryan shook his head.

"Sold for 1.21 Heavenly Credits. Congratulations, mam!" the auctioneer announced as she bowed to the winner. "Now, the next item for sale is the ultimate sex toy for the ladies!"

The audience gasped in shock, and the entire room seemed to stop breathing as they watched the man place a hand on a blonde-haired boy whose age was unrecognizable. He had no clothes on his body and looked like a small doll that had been used and abused over many years until only this remained.

The crowd roared excitedly as the female lifted the boy's legs so everyone could see what lay between them. A considerable penis grew from the boy's crotch, becoming erect while he stared at the ground with a blank expression.

"Do I hear 2 Heavenly Credits?" the auction master asked.

"Yes, I do!" an excited noble cried out.

"Do I hear 4 Heavenly Credits? That's not much compared to the last item," the auctioneer said to another group of bidders. "Oh? Who will take it? Oh, here we go. It's going for 5! Who will top that bid? Let me see... who will it be? Ah yes, 6 Heavenly Credit! Sold to number nine! Congratulations!"

Everyone seemed surprised when a young girl walked towards her winning purchase and hugged him tightly before picking him up like a baby.

Ryan recognized the girl as Sophia, the daughter of the Baron from earlier today.

"Timmy, you tried to run away all those years ago. But now, my darling Timmy has returned to where he belonged," Sophia whispered loud enough for Ryan to hear.

Ryan watched as a single tear fell from the otherwise expressionless boy's eyes.

Ryan's heart ached as he watched the scene, feeling like someone had kicked his puppy into the gutter.

He had seen a lot of horrible things on the street in LA, and prostitution was a big part of the streets for females.

It was a known way of life that people accepted as reality. But Ryan specifically remembered her. A girl named Tina.

===

"Get off of me!" Tina screamed while struggling against two men holding her down by her wrists and ankles.

"Why would anyone pay to fuck some dumb bitch who can't even walk straight?" one man yelled. "You're giving it to us for free.

"Help, someone help!" she begged.

The other three prostitutes working for the brothel had their hands over their mouths with tears flowing out from underneath their eyelids at seeing the situation unfold.

The moment the man pinched her nose with his fingers so hard that blood squirted out onto his hand, the young woman fainted right then and there from the pain.

However, he didn't stop, and instead of letting her go, he dragged her towards a nearby table and spread her legs apart. Her thighs trembled as he slammed himself inside of her.

The girl gagged and coughed as something large and thick began painfully entering her mouth.

The girl was tiny, no bigger than five feet tall. She had blonde hair and blue eyes and was as thin as a twig.

As she took it in both holes, all he saw was blankness in her blue eyes. A look he hadn't forgotten since that day when he was nine. The same look of blankness he saw in the boys eyes.
