If Victor doesn't help, the nobles present, and even August, might die at the hands of that tiger-man.

Some people have already felt deep regret and anger.

If they were on their own territory with enough troops, how could these demi-humans be so arrogant?

Why did these demi-humans choose such a coincidental and opportune time to attack the royal city?

At this moment, they could only place their hopes firmly on Viktor.

At this moment, Victor listened to the tiger-man's words but did not respond.

He had his hands in his pockets, his face calm, as if he were weighing the pros and cons.

The deep blue trench coat behind him swayed in the air, crackling loudly in the downpour.

"Before this, we indeed had no grudges."

Upon hearing Viktor's words, a sense of despair welled up in the hearts of all the nobles and wealthy people.

But the next second, Viktor's words brought them great joy.

“But you just hit my people, threatened our country’s princess, and tried to take my maid away.”

"Now, we have a grudge."

Upon hearing this, the tiger-man was suddenly taken aback, and couldn't help but recall the knight and catgirl in the private room on the second floor earlier.

But threatening the princess?

Did it intimidate us?

But it also understood that what the monk was saying was clearly just an excuse.

The other party just wanted to find a reason to keep it.

"and--"

Victor spoke again slowly.

"I've already paid the money."

"You were just left as products I bought."

"Then who should I seek compensation from for the 100 million I owe?"

The nobles present were furious when they heard Victor say this, and their initial joy turned into dissatisfaction.

They were just talking to the auctioneer about the need for compensation from the Chamber of Commerce for that batch of goods, and then they turned around and came after this tiger-man.

So they're trying to have their cake and eat it too.

But their lives were still in Viktor's hands, so they had no choice but to suppress their discontent.

Tiger Boss looked at Viktor, his clasped hands gradually lowering, a dangerous glint in his eyes.

Its gaze was incredibly sharp, as if it wanted to pierce through Viktor's body.

Suddenly, a powerful pressure swept through the entire auction hall, and a heavy aura lingered around it.

The tiger-man's breathing gradually became steady, each breath seemingly imbued with rhythm.

Its body also bulged slightly, appearing even larger than before.

"It seems that you are determined to fight this battle."

"However, that's exactly what I was thinking too."

Its expression became extremely serious, and a sharp aura continuously emanated from its brows and eyes.

The tiger-man raised his head, his expression serious, and gave orders to the eagle-man in the sky:

"Take your compatriots with you and leave this place."

Upon hearing the tiger-man's words, all the half-eagles in the sky flapped their wings and nodded heavily.

They then circled in the air a few times, flew out of the dome, and let out a sharp cry towards the sky.

Cry—! ! !

The sharp screech echoed in the empty night sky, carrying far and wide.

As if receiving a command, all the demi-humans in the hall turned around in unison.

The dozen or so bull-men turned around and charged towards the broken and incomplete golden wall.

With heavy steps, they charged ahead of the demi-human ranks, clearing a path for more demi-humans to break through the buildings.

Now, they must leave at full speed.

Don't be fooled by their current advantage; it's because the kingdom's defenses are weak, and a large number of nobles have gathered at the auction.

Once the kingdom reacts, armies from all directions converge on the royal city.

These few thousand demi-humans were utterly unable to stop the steel army that was like a raging flood.

They must evacuate before the kingdom's reinforcements arrive.

The chaotic footsteps made the entire earth tremble slightly, and amidst a powerful shock, countless demi-humans hurriedly left this place.

As the demi-humans they had once kept and imprisoned gradually left, the eyes of these noble lords were filled with heartache.

In any case, these demi-human slaves had spent a considerable amount of time in their homes.

Every meal they ate, if converted into a monetary value, would be equivalent to a very heavy gold coin!

They hoped Victor could stop these demi-humans, but Victor simply stood there, his gaze utterly calm.

He could only watch helplessly as the demi-humans gradually dispersed.

Until, looking into the distance, their silhouettes could no longer be seen.

Tiger Boss once again pierced Viktor with his sharp, terrifying gaze.

Its eyes were filled with a heavy fighting spirit.

"Now, it's just us left."

Viktor remained expressionless as he extended one hand and raised it slightly.

Immediately afterwards, the female tiger-woman who had been suppressed and trapped deep within the shattered platform felt a sense of lightness in her body.

The moment she was freed from her restraints, the female tiger-woman instantly lifted off the ground.

It flipped over, stood up, and immediately stood behind the tiger leader.

Its orange fur was already soaked through by the water, dripping into the puddles and creating ripples.

Only after he shook off the water and regained his composure did Victor speak:

"It seems your compatriots trust you a lot."

"We could even just abandon both of you."

Upon hearing this, Tiger Boss's somewhat relaxed pupils instantly contracted.

Compared to before, it is now more ferocious, its tone chilling:

"In their eyes, I am their invincible king."
