Became The Tyrant’s Companion Rabbit

0.12. The camouflage couple (2)

'Wow, that's what I said, but it doesn't really make sense.'

But the water has already been spilled. She smiled bashfully, trying to look as innocent as possible. I can't spit on her smiling face.

At that moment, Tenok's golden eyes shook slightly. Because I was looking straight up at his opponent, I knew it on my own even if I didn't want to.

“… … Is that so."

Tenoch wiped his lips and turned his head. At first glance, it seemed that the pinna of the ear was red.

'The acting is amazing. You look really shy.'

I didn't expect it at all because he usually has a consistent cold expression, but Tenoch's acting skills were enough to hit a professional actor in the face.

'I've already hit him ten times in the face.'

Your side profile is truly a work of art. This man's parents must have been full even without eating.

To see and talk to a noble man like this. Is it possible or done in Korea?

'Also. Possession is the best.'

If I could stay next to Tenoch like this, I'd be fine with a rabbit's body.

It was then.

“The tea house will be closing soon, you better hurry!”

A man with glasses who had already walked far away shouted at the two of them. His expression looked like he was chewing on something.

It's probably the feeling of "What are you doing?"

Jenny crossed her arms around Tenoch's, taking care not to reveal her inner feelings.

Inside the alley, following the guide. The deeper we went, the fewer people were walking.

At some point, when only the three of them were left, the man with glasses stopped walking.

In front of an old store with no signage.

“Wait here for a moment.”

The man took a few steps forward and knocked on the old door.

Knock, Knock, Knock, Knock Knock

Carefully. beat the beat 7 times.

After a while, a pale lantern approached the window that hadn't shone at all. Then, with a rattle, the door opened.

“Then, have a good time.”

The man wearing glasses soon turned his back and disappeared.

"welcome."

The newcomer from the door was very short. He was wearing a round and wide bread hat, so it reminded me of mocha bread.

'Mocha bread with white milk. It's very delicious.'

Incidentally, mocha bread is one of Jenny's soul foods.

'I wonder if there's mocha bread here too.'

I'm lost in my thoughts for a while.

“Before you eat, I will inspect your belongings.”

said the short man.

“Because there are so many people who come for ungodly purposes.”

A golden tooth that had been hidden behind a grinning face was revealed. You shouldn't judge a person by their appearance, but very... … .

'It's a bad impression.'

Even at a cursory glance, it was his appearance with the words “I am a villain” written on his forehead. The bread hat man groped Tenoch without hesitation.

Despite the man's short stature, Tenok was taller than anyone he'd met in this world. Perhaps because of this, a scene like a cicada hanging from an old tree was created.

“Okay, next lady.”

The man in the bread hat looked at Jenny with a bad laugh. His touch hadn't even touched him yet, but the moment he felt his selfish gaze, an uneasy feeling wrapped around his body, as if a caterpillar had fallen on the nape of his neck.

“Aren’t there any female workers here?”

Then, Tenoch intervened. The short man shook his head, smacking his lips as if he was sorry.

“No. It is rare for a couple to come to a place like this.”

"okay."

Jenny was just embarrassed. This is because he was the one who insisted that the married couple should act.

“But it’s not like there aren’t any at all, there are a lot of noble mistresses with very eccentric tastes.”

phew, good luck Jenny let out a sigh of relief.

“Come on in. It was just a joke.”

The man in the bread that showed his gold teeth and grinned.

It's obvious, man. If he was a naive noble, he would have followed the man's body search.

"ok… … .”

It was the moment when the inner feeling of being a sloppy guy was about to come out of his mouth again. Jenny hurriedly pressed her lips shut.

However, since it was such a quiet space, there was no way the two men couldn't hear her.

“What did you say, madam?”

Tenoch asked indifferently. Jenny wept internally and tugged at the man's arm. Still, she persists in asking.

“A little while ago… … I think he said something like this.”

“Yeah, uhh-! It is an exclamation.”

"Aha. Just like a colt.”

“Oh ho ho ho, am I just as cute as a foal?”

Jenny let out an exaggerated laugh and pinched Tenoch's inner arm.

“Yes.”

Tenoch complained of pain at the unexpected attack.

"What are you doing, ma'am?"

It was only a woman pinching, but Tenoch, ashamed of the fact that he couldn't stand it, brushed the nape of his neck, revealing his bewildered expression without filtering.

“There are many eyes on others, but you keep showing affection. ashamed.”

Jenny twisted her body and touched the ends of her hair.

“… … Stop going, please.”

The short man standing in front appealed. The aristocratic couple then saved face and entered the dark building.

The first floor was empty. Following the lanterns lit by the guide and crossing the street, a back door appeared.

“Have a pleasant purchase.”

Then open the lock and open the door wide. Loud cheers erupted from the open space.

“50 derpa (gold coins)!”

“Here comes 50 derpa. Anybody else?”

“65 derpa! I live!”

“Whoa!”

Customers bid, and the auctioneer excitedly encouraged them. Cheers poured in from the onlookers from all over the place.

The inside of the auction house was also dark. Only the front podium was lit up like a stage.

Above it was a man locked in a large cage with his hands tied and shackled.

The long hair that was messy and tangled to the point where it was hard to tell the original color made me guess how long he hadn't washed (it was locked up).

“Here, there is a seat.”

In a tumultuous atmosphere, there was no conversation at all unless whispered. Tenoch pressed her closer to her this time and whispered to her.

Then he went ahead and cleared the way. He was holding Jenny's hand tightly.

Kong-dak-dak-dak-dak.

“Heart-thumping… … .”

Self-talk flowed from Jenny's lips. Fortunately, it was so noisy inside that her words never reached Tenoch.

"there! Come on, sit down! You can't see it!”

"You're as tall as someone who's far away!"

Excited people poured curses at Tenok.

But Tenoch did not look back. It was because there might be aristocratic officials among those who participated in the slave auction.

No matter how disguised they are, a keen eye will recognize them by looking at the color of their eyes.

Just squeezed in and sat down.

“Beast man! 65 Derpa! The gentleman waving his hat over there won the bid!”

The auctioneer introduced the man who paid the highest price among the bidders. Everyone clapped their hands, and the successful bidder stood up and greeted with dignity.

It was like a festival between them.

“Next is the last listing of the day! The red-haired woman!”

It was the moment when Loetta, the original female protagonist, finally appeared.

Workers dragged a woman with her hands tied to the center of the stage.

"what."

Looking up at her, Jenny was quite taken aback.

“Isn’t it Loetta… … ?”

As can be inferred from the title <The Tyrant's Ugly Bride>, the author of the original work described the female protagonist, Loetta, as an 'ugly woman'.

However, the woman in front of me has big eyes, round cheekbones, a moderately high nose bridge, immaculate skin, and a slender body that can be said to be the pinnacle of a doll-like appearance, with long wavy hair.

This is not an ugly woman, but rather the appearance of a heavenly 'heroine'!

“Who is Loetta?”

At that time, Tenoch, who was sitting next to him, whispered a question. It was as if I had overheard myself talking.

I said it honestly, thinking that if I tried to overlook it, I might arouse suspicion.

“A woman to be rescued from this place.”

Most of the main characters possessed by the novel choose to 'twist the original'. But as you can see, most of the roads don't go as intended.

Before coming to the slave auction, Jenny made up her mind.

Now that the mirror, which is a major setting in the original work, has been broken. I will not damage the original story as much as possible, even if it takes a slightly different course from the original story.

As I recall, at the end of the keyword for <Tyrant's Ugly Bride>, '#happy ending' was written. As it is a romance novel, the two main characters had to fall in love.

'Anyway, anyway, since you let me meet Loetta, now it's time for the two of us to have a good time. I just pick up the bean curd that falls next to it and eat it.'

Jenny had a meaningful smile.

“Is this a woman you know?”

Tenoch asked again.

“Can’t you just look at it? It's written on your face."

Apparently he felt something as soon as he saw Loetta.

“You have to pay an astronomical amount to buy her here.”

"I don't know what's written on her face, or why she has to buy that woman for an astronomical amount."

Well… … ? you don't know anything. Isn't your heart pounding? It was love at first sight!

See you again! look again!

Even with a glance, the man's gaze remained fixed on Jenny.

“… … .”

what. It's difficult when this happens. I have to get involved with Loetta, but what if I stay away from her?

“Ugh, to tell you everything from one to ten.”

Jenny put her lips close to Tenoch's ear, covering it with her hand.

“I have to participate in the transaction myself and get physical evidence! What proof could there be as sure as the emperor’s check?”

Fortunately, her excuse worked, and Tenoch turned his attention back to the slave woman on the stage.
