Daddy rest well, good night "Helen smiled and told.

"My baby, are u going to sleep so early" "Are you sick? Should I call a doctor? "

"No daddy I am just tired"

"Okay, good night darling"

Helen went to her room, Jannat followed behind.

"Jannat you may leave"

"Yes my lady"

"It's time to check my servants -"

Helen wore a dress as simple as possible which was available

She covered her face with a mask, and jumped out of the 3rd floor balcony.

Clung onto a tree and sided down.

Helen first went to check the servant's quarters.

She moved.

Quite as a lion waiting to pound on its prey she was careful not to wake up others

The chef was missing and the dresser was nowhere to be found.

Helen went to the garden next.

The gardener was sound asleep in his room.

She checked around the mansion.

Unauthorized duplication: this tale has been taken without consent. Report sightings.

Though the knights of house Mackil were strong, no one sensed her presence...as she was agile and experienced.

"My body is still weak; I would need a lot of training if I want to defeat my enemies."

"Now the chef and dresser are suspects colluding with Jannat."

Helen thought that she should stop searching for traitor now and give some time for her body to gain strength.

Helen went outside the manor to the back alley.

It was a place that is full of Dangers....

Lurking around as many thieves disguised as beggars stayed in those slums.

Reaching the back alley.

It was all dark

There was no light.

Even the moonlight didn't have its reflection.

Death queen. Had a good night vision as she trained to be an assassin.

In the back alley she saw young children lying cold and freezing. Without even proper clothes.

It was not time to sympathize.

Helen had to get the ticket for auction that was only sold in this creepy alley at night.

There was an old building with creepers growing on it.

The novel stated that a building old enough to be destroyed and filled with plants and creepers was a place that sold auction tickets

"Knock knock" Helen knocked on the window

An old man opened the window and asked what she wants.

"I want cheery liquor" that was a sign to ask the auction ticket mentioned in the novel.

The old man answered "The moon is shining a blue light"

"Blue eyes are as bright as diamonds" Helen replied

"Please come in Young Lord"

(The shopkeeper didn't know Helen's gender as she was disguised wearing a mask and tied her dress like pants)

Entering the building, it was completely different from outside.

The interiors were shining with candles and gems fixed on the ceilings.

"Lord this way please "the old man led Helen to a room.

There Helen was offered a pamphlet.

There were choices to which type of ticket she can buy.

The bronze ticket valued - 20 gold

The silver ticket valued - 100 gold

The gold ticket valued - 250 gold

Bronze ticket holders could only buy Herbs and jewels

Silver ticket holders could buy - gems, herbs and slaves

The Gold ticket holders will get the seat they wish for and could buy gems, slaves, herbs, properties; everything auctioned.

"It's better to not stand out too much buy buying gold ticket or to not to be able to buy anything else with bronze ticket"💭

"I would like to purchase the silver ticket"

"Yes, young lord"

"When is the time of auction?"

"The next auction will be 3 days from today at midnight"
