Viscount, angry with Clown's reply pushed further.

Just then, a deep voice interrupted their banter.

"If you are going to kill him, then do it already!"

A big burly man with a plain white mask of a frowning face walked forward.

His clothes looked to have been worn inside out.

He was bald with scars on the parts of his head that were not covered by the mask.

Immediately, Viscount saw him, she took several steps back.

Both of them immediately bowed at the man.

"Senior Brother Frown!"

Frown nodded.

"Fights are heavily discouraged in the brotherhood of the Grand Order. However, I do not mind a bit of competition to handle disputes."

Frown walked towards them with a hand behind his back.

"Clown! You were not supposed to get involved with your sister's mission."

"Yes, Senior Brother Frown. Viscount was wasting too much time. I only wanted to confirm the existence of the Tablet, and..."

"Shush!" Frown placed a finger on his lips.

Immediately, Clown shut up.

"You will get your due punishment later! This house is one of discipline. You will not break our ways!"

As he talked, a strong force suddenly pushed Clown to the ground.

*Bam!*

Clown struggled hard. However, no matter how he struggled, he could not get up.

He gasped for breath as the relentless invincible force held him firm to the ground.

Viscount by his side looked over at his condition from the corner of her eyes.

She could see that he was already bleeding from his Orfrices.

She swallowed hard as drops of sweat ran down her back.

"Discipline! Do you understand me, Clown!"

Frown released his soul force on Clown.

Clown gasped for breath as he resumed his bowing position, "yes... Yes, senior Brother!"

"Good! Now, the master has sent me to pass to both of you his orders. Don't worry, it is one of good news!"

Frown turned to Viscount, "it was just as Master predicted. A Baron under Viscount Peter was in possession of the Tablet. But it was not the one we thought of. Both of you will join Misfortune and Regret, and bring it here!"

frown turned and walked away. However, he stopped by the door, "oh! by the way, the auction is tonight. I expect you do whatsoever it takes to bring that Tablet. Failure is never a convincing option."

"Yes, senior Brother Frown!" Both of them echoed together.

Frown took another step forward.

The doors were still shut, but some how, he fazed through them.

Just like he had come, he had gone.

The moment he left, Clown and Viscount sat on the ground.

Both of them exhausted from the pressure he gave out.

.....

There was an old saying that when money talked, people worked.

This was such a case.

The tailors came as soon as Eros had ordered for them.

And by the evening time, the dresses for the ball had arrived.

However, they were not ready for the ball until late at night.

Eros was made to understand that women in this world were the same in his former world.

It took them hours before they were ready.

This was going to be an auction. It was best to dress with style and these women were not going to lack behind.

After all, nobles would be present.

Dan was the first to step out.

He dressed just as impressively as he had done before.

He nearly looked like a mini version of his grandfather.

Next, came Lady Frostbite, Amanda and then Shade.

All of whom looked incredibly beautiful.

They all got on the carriage and it rode towards the location of the Auction.

The Viscount's home was one of outspoken luxury.

It was far more luxurious than many would have loved to admit.

The Viscount's manor was a large home painted with a powerful and colorful mixture of grey and lemon green.

It is rumoured that this was the favorite color of his most cheeished mistress. Painted this way to show his affection for her.

It was adorned with peak artistic designs that spoke of his passion for the ocean.

Even on the walls, one could see well erratic display of ocean waves and mer-cretures.

The main hall itself was large and encompassing.

It's floor was made of Grade 2 ceramic black shadow soul stones.

It is said that these stones could only be gotten in the dead sands of the Black islands.

It was very smooth, it's dark surface playing a perfect compliment to the bright white ceiling that was heavily decorated with more artistic perception of the ocean.

The entire hall was made bright with Chandeliers carrying bright soul stones which were littered on the ceiling like stars at night.

At the entrance to the hall, the master of ceremonies announced the arrival of different guests, one after other.

In no time, the hall had already been filled with guests.

Men and women of noble standing had come from far and wide to celebrate this event.

Although, Viscount Peter was just a viscount, it was rumored that he had strong connections with the third Grand Duke and the Second Prince.

This meant that he had very strong standing grounds in the society and even influence in the royal family.

Such a person was of incredible importance.

The Almace Kingdom was big and wide.

Having good Connections with one that had connections with the royal family was a good thing.

"Announcing the arrival of Baron Bolos Baraka. Accompanied by his children and in company of Lady Penny Ironclad Tate!"

The master of events made the announcement as Baron Bolos arrived.

Immediately, many turned in their direction.

The noble circle was always one of whispers and gossips.

Even though Penny had arrived on a dress in company of Baron Bolos, everyone knew that she was his hostage.

She was taken as collateral for the dept of an old man.

Many already knew about the rumour that he planned to gift her in this ceremony to Viscount Peter as a birthday gift.

Penny wore a simple but very elegant dress that displayed the beauty of her youth. It was long and bright yellow in color.

Even though she looked quite beautiful, she had a gloomy face on.

"Yes that is her. An innocent girl paying for her Grand father's sins with her body."

A older lady whispered to another.

"Yes, it is such a shame. Such a young lady gone to waste!"

Such talks continued to revolve around her.

Meanwhile, the moment she entered into the hall, she could not help but look around the place.

Every guest and elderly looking man, she was immediately drawn to.

However, no matter how much she searched, she did not find who she was looking for.

"Can't find him, right!?"

A voice whispered in her ear.

Penny turned to it. It was an all too familiar voice.

She had heard this voice time and time again, just peeking into her business.

It was the young girl by her side known as Gloria.

Gloria was the only girl child if Baron Bolos, and practically the apple of his eyes.

She was not exactly ugly. In fact, one could say she was not bad.

But her beauty did not stand out in any particular way.

Even now, when they all entered the room.

Eyes and attention had been drawn to Penny and not her.

Even though she was the Baron's daughter and Penny was practically a pretty decorated prisoner, she was still ignored by the eyes in room.

This made her angry.

She had put so much attention and detail into her choice of dress and her make up, and yet, she could not even be acknowledged for it.

It really made her feel bitter and she wanted Penny to feel the same way.

"Your old withered grand father!" Gloria added.

"He is the person you are searching for, right!?"

Penny did not want to give Gloria any attention but but her facial expression gave it away.

Gloria giggled lightly. She could tell that she was stinging at an open wound.

"Dear Penny, I have told you before. Your old man is not coming for you. The Viscount's birthday celebration has gone on for three days now, and you searched for him but he did not show. Trust me, I know for a fact that he is not coming."

Penny turned to Gloria, her frown had gotten deeper.

However, she could not deny deep down that a part of her had already given up all hope of a rescue.

Even though Eros had sent the head of the captain that had invaded their home in a box with money, nothing else had been done since then.

Gloria strolled around her to her face, "the only reason father has not gifted you to the Viscount yet, is because gift presentations is after the Auction. You see, I heard that Viscount Peter has a thing for Blondies. Unfortunately," she placed a hand on her cheek, "they never seem to come out sane when he is done with them."

"Stop it!" Penny spoke up in her annoyance.

However, Gloria did not stop.

"You know, I forgot to tell you. But word reached me that your grand father made it to the Snake Forest a few days ago."

Penny's interest was immediately pricked.

"However," Gloria continued, "senior brother said in his letter that the snake women got him, I'm sure he is already snake shit by now."

The more Penny frowned, the happier Gloria became.

"Yes, your ugly, poor, and wrenched old man is..."

"Announcing the arrival of Baron Eros Ironclad Tate, accompanied by Baron Angela Frostbite, his Son and his wifes..."

"Huh!?"
