The chapter opens with a description of a house auction. The narrator tells us that this is the first time he's been to a large crowd like this. He's also worried about the royal member who's there, because he thinks he might be a member of the Luori nation. He tries to get away from the crowd, but they keep blocking his path. He notices that the caped man next to him seems to have an aura of danger. He also notices that there are soldiers all around the city, so it's best to stay away from him. The auction of the elf princess is about to begin, and the narrator tells the audience that this will be the most important item in the auction. He says that if the auction hadn't been for his wife, he wouldn't have taken the bracelet out for it. He then shows the audience the beautiful elf princess, who is wearing the bracelet. Everyone is excited to see her.
