My Inner Voice Heard By Heroines

49 The protagonist is just a single dog who is jealous of other people's happiness

Suou looked at Issei differently, and even took him to the VIP seats when the auction was about to begin.

When the two came out from backstage, many people were really curious about Issei.

A young man who had never been seen before, what was his identity, and Suou's old man who was the former head of the Himejima family personally brought him here, and even arranged a seat for him.

Although Issei's appearance looked like a poor and out of place person that made them frown, they did not dare to do anything to provoke the young man without knowing his identity first.

In contrast, some people who had attended Rias' birthday party a few days ago saw Issei and fell silent.

Why did this person appear again?

To be honest if it wasn't for Issei making trouble at Rias' birthday party back then, they might not have had to lose their faces from being forced to kneel by Riser.

Instead of hating Riser who they dared not provoke after learning of his power, they hated Issei who came with Diodora at that time.

Even so, they also didn't want to make a scene just to provoke Issei in an auction attended by many high-status people.

So they just kept quiet and followed the auction honestly while occasionally glaring at Issei.

Issei didn't realize, or rather he assumed the people glaring at him were people who were amazed by his Dragon King charms.

So he was just indifferent while sitting on the VIP bench with one leg crossed.

Suou did not know what happened at Rias' birthday party that made some people at the auction glare at Issei, after arranging Issei to sit in the first row, she began to greet others.

The people he greeted were mostly the people in the first and second rows.

These were the people he deserved to greet, and they were all people of sufficient status.

"Mr. Riser, that guy really showed up again?"

When Tsubaki saw Issei, she was in a bad mood.

That ugly man really came like in the original plot?

Couldn't it just disappear for a while? It was annoying to watch that guy sitting not far from her.

It only made her feel wary and worried about being exposed to the protagonist's halo that might reduce her intelligence.

Riser expected protagonist to appear, so of course he wasn't surprised. After all, the dragon-shaped key is one of the most important opportunities associated with the protagonist. Now that it's going to be auctioned off, how could he not appear?

"Just ignore him, he's not an important person."

Riser knew Tsubaki knew Issei from Rias' previous birthday party, she must have seen Issei making trouble back then and the moment he slapped his face was also seen by her.

Even so Riser chose to ignore the other party, but he knew very well that today's auction might be a bit troublesome.

From the current point of view, Issei had enormous funds, and the wealth that the Dragon King Palace had accumulated over the years was not easy.

The competition for opportunities was destined to become a fight between dragons and tigers, depending on who had enough funds!

Fortunately, his own personal money had increased a lot after his parents started developing the land he gave them earlier. They felt bad taking free land for granted, even if it was from their own child. So they secretly transferred several billion into his account which he only realized a few days ago.

Thinking of this, Riser smiled wryly, I have good parents...

He became more confident to compete with Issei in this auction, even if Issei had the wealth of the Dragon King Palace behind him, he was currently unlikely to mobilize all his wealth.

The Dragon King Palace was indeed very rich, but it was overseas and all the money they got was also not completely clean as most of it was obtained by illegal means.

After all, it was a mercenary army that usually killed people. So unless it was abroad, or in one's own territory, the wealth of the Dragon King Palace could not be fully used by the Issei in this country because of the strict dirty money screening laws.

At most the other party only prepared a few hundred million or billion at this time.

Tsubaki wore a speechless expression hearing what Riser said, isn't Issei an important person?

After all, he is also the protagonist, is it appropriate to say that?

"Tsubaki niece is also coming to the auction? Then I should also welcome her today."

Suou came to Tsubaki and was very surprised by her arrival.

Although Tsubaki was famous in Tokyo, but she rarely participated in activities such as auctions, even basically not participating in some night parties.

Today's performance really surprised him.

"Uncle is joking."

Tsubaki smiled slightly, but did not say much.

She only knew the other party a little because she once went to the Himejima clan compound to play with his niece.

"I don't know who this is?"

Suou noticed that Tsubaki was still holding Riser's arm, so he asked, wondering who that other party was.

"Ah, this is my friend."

"Oh, I see."

Suou suddenly realized something, so he was not so curious.

It might be some kind of son-in-law, but I've never seen it, so it shouldn't be notable.

Riser left after seeing Suou say something, he did not care to pay attention to her.

[The protagonist's super dog licker is there, it's better there's no attachment with him.]

Tsubaki and the other heroines raised their ears.

Tsubaki looked at Riser curiously, was the dog he was referring to the patriarch Suou?

[Suou Himejima, since the old man came out with Issei just now, it is basically certain that the other party is now the protagonist's dog licker.]

[In the original work, after the auction was over and Suou introduced Issei to his niece, Akeno Himejima, one of the heroines. He sees Issei's interest in Akeno, and he becomes a matchmaker for Issei so that he can get Akeno.]

[But Akeno doesn't like Issei at first sight at all, she even feels disgusted at Issei blatantly staring at her breasts. So Issei had a hard time getting Akeno back then.]

[Suou, being a cunning dog licker, he took advantage of Issei's interest in Akeno to fulfill his ambitions.]

[Offering Issei a deal to cooperate with him, Suou basically said that as long as Issei could help him regain the position of clan head, he could help Issei forcibly marry Akeno to him.]

[He also explained that the clan's rules on having a future son-in-law for Akeno were very strict, especially since Akeno's father was very protective of her.]

[So if Issei really wanted to get Akeno, he had to help Suou regain the position of clan head so that the old man could use his status to force Akeno to marry him.]

[This is another bloody plot as Akeno's father who is the current head of the Himejima clan will be killed by Suou with Issei's help. There is also another scheme in it where Issei will pretend to be the hero saving beauty.]

[Although in the end Akeno didn't really fall love for that trick, after Suou managed to become the clan chief again, she was forced to marry Issei and on the wedding night...]

The heroines listened to Riser seriously as if eating melons, especially Akeno who was currently eavesdropping in her private room.

She was agitated after hearing that her father would be killed by her uncle and Issei's scheme. Even so she remained calm at the moment and continued to listen to Riser's inner voice, but the man did not finish his words!

"As expected, I am also the heroine..."

"But what? What happened on my wedding night?"

Akeno certainly didn't want to marry Issei, she was just curious, especially after hearing what kind of plot he had with her.

She felt she would rather die than be forced to marry Issei by her uncle.

As for her uncle? After hearing her uncle killed her father in the original plot.

She naturally marked her own uncle as a target to be eliminated as soon as possible.

Akeno's gaze became cold, even her violet eyes glowed slightly.

She had never really had any good feelings for her uncle, as she knew the old man only pretended to be nice to her, and actually always had an evil look in his eyes, especially when he saw her father.

It was just that since the old man had never moved over the years, she and even her father, had always pretended to treat each other politely.

But now, because Akeno knew her uncle would move with Issei's help to overthrow the position of clan head that her father held.

She would no longer hesitate to plot her uncle's removal.

As a young lady of the Himejima clan, she herself was not exactly a saint.

Even to become the behind-the-scenes boss of Antique Street, she needed to struggle and remove some people with her power and help her subordinates whenever they had some problems that could not be solved with money.

"By the way Riser, are you seriously stopping there?"

Seeing the man sitting quietly at the monitoring screen, Akeno's lips twitched, she felt the urge to tie him up and force him to continue talking about the plot.

Tsubaki saw Riser completely silent and watched the auction that had already begun.

Good man, you really didn't continue your inner voice.

And that's the part that makes people most curious!

Issei had been observing the audience, as there would be many bigwigs from Tokyo City and etc participating in this auction, so he wanted to use this opportunity to get to know these people.

Although he already had a bad reputation when he was in Kuoh City, as well as the last birthday party.

But he knew that none of the real bosses were there back then.

But this time, some real bosses came.

I believe that with my abilities, I can impress those great people.

However, when he saw Riser and Tsubaki, he felt unwell.

[You bastards, you actually showed up again, and are still showing affection in front of me!]

[Damn bastard, I really want to kill this dog quickly!]

[Ahh! Why are beautiful women always with him! Last time he was with Rias, Grayfia, Latia and now another beautiful woman whose name is Tsubaki Shinra.]

[Damn it, Tsubaki is also one of my targets! She's my future wife! Riser, you just wait. Hehe enjoy your sweet time for now. You don't have long to live after all.]

Protagonist wasn't in the mood for a fight, after all he had already posted Riser's head on the dark web, it was only a matter of time before the dog disappeared from this world.

And by the time that happens, all the women around him he can get his hands on using a few tricks.

Thinking of this, Issei smirked in his heart, but on the surface he was indifferent and stared at the stage, waiting for the auctioneer to take the stage.

He wasn't interested in ordinary antiques and the like, what he really cared about was the strange key he saw on the list earlier.

Another thing is to get to know more bigwigs through auctions, and use your own financial resources to make those bigwigs look at you differently, so that you can join the upper class of Tokyo City and become a bigwig.

The people participating in the auction appeared one by one, and the auction started immediately.

The auctioneer comes from the Himejima family, starting with the first lot.

Riser has little interest in these things, and does not plan to use the auction to meet anyone.

As for Issei's inner voice that seemed to have something planned for him, Riser smiled faintly and still stared at the auction indifferently, even a little sleepy.

Judging from the failures Issei suffered every time he dealt with him, if not calling his overseas troops, he would probably do something like hiring people on the dark web to kill him.

Despite already thinking of this possibility, Riser was still calm, now he was only focused on cutting off the protagonist's opportunity.

Seeing that there were many bigwigs from various cities sitting not far from him, he only gave them a quick glance before looking back at the stage.

Normally if it was someone else, for example like the protagonist, they would probably try to curry favor with those bigwigs.

But him? He didn't need to do that because to him, only others licked him, so why should he lick others?

"Is Mr. Riser not interested in this?"

Ignoring Issei's crazy inner voice as usual, Tsubaki only felt disgusted by the man who suddenly thought of herself as his future wife the first time he saw her.

After several antique auctions in a row, Tsubaki found that Riser was not interested at all, and would even fall asleep, so she started looking for topics to talk about.

"Well, antiques... this is what I have at home, pretty much."

Riser wasn't trying to fool people, there were many antiques in his house, there was even a special warehouse for antique storage.

Purchased by his people, saying it was to add a bit of charm and maintain appreciation or something.

He didn't care about that!

Over the past few years, the more antiques he bought, the more indifferent he became to antiques.

Except for the protagonist's antiques of course.

"Oh, I see, then I'm free on another day, can I go and have a look?"

Tsubaki was actually bored too, and was just looking for a topic, she even teased a little which she rarely did with her serious personality.

"Oh? Are you interested in antiques?"

Seeing Riser a little surprised, Tsubaki smiled slightly and nodded.

"Un, I even participated in this auction to get a certain item."

Riser suddenly remembered the plot of the ancient mirror in the original work, it was related to Tsubaki and her family.

If I'm not mistaken in this auction there should also be that ancient mirror and Tsubaki will get it.

But that was not his concern for now, there were priorities among priorities, he now only focused on taking the item the protagonist wanted.

"Okay, leave whenever you're free."

"Okay, another day then."

Tsubaki smiled, the two chatting happily, Issei who was a few seats away from them was very irritable.

[Dammit, you guys can't participate in the auction properly, and you're even teasing each other there!]

[Unacceptable!]

The heroines:...

Tsubaki:...

Ignore protagonist.

The protagonist is just a single dog who is jealous of other people's happiness.

Tsubaki sneered, she was getting more and more active to chat with Riser as if aiming more dog food at Issei.

Issei who saw this was getting angry, but couldn't roar because it would ruin his image in front of many big bosses.

He clenched his fists as he turned his attention to the ongoing auction.

About two hours later, according to the auctioneer, the jade with the dragon-shaped lock was finally pushed to the top.

For this lot, judging from the quality of the jade, it was a very ordinary jade.

But there are still some people who are more interested in the key inside.

"Everyone, this five-star white jade piece is very special. I'm sure you've seen it. There is a key inside the jade. Judging from current methods, it is impossible to tell how the key was inserted. It seems to grow inside the jade."

"Due to its special nature, the starting price is 50,000! Each increase is no less than 10,000!"

As soon as the auctioneer's voice dropped, someone started bidding.

"fifty thousand!"

"Sixty thousand!"

Since only the key was special, there were not many bidders, only seven or eight people, and the price was raised to 150,000.

At this time, Issei raised his hand and shouted, "500,000!"

Riser's expression became serious, the protagonist started bidding?

Hehe then it's his turn!

"One million!"
