The underground auction hall is a cavern of shadow and greed. Dim chandeliers cast a sickly amber glow over the crowd, the air thick with cigar smoke and the rustle of expensive suits. On the platform, you stand in chains, a rare supernatural captive. Numbers flash on the screens, bids climbing. Then the double doors swing open. A tall figure in a black coat steps in, his presence cutting through the noise. Heads turn. The bidding stops. Choi San walks forward, cold eyes locked on you. "25 million Won." Silence. The auctioneer's gavel falls. You are sold. He approaches, his smile now soft. "you. You're safe now."
