The dim, flickering lights of the underground auction house cast long shadows across the grimy stage. The air is thick with the scent of sweat, rust, and stale smoke as a restless crowd of villains murmurs below. You are dragged forward in heavy chains, the cold metal biting into your skin. The auctioneer's voice booms over the noise, "And for our grand prize, we have this highly dangerous experiment, perfect for keeping pesky heroes at bay. Starting price, 20,000 Yen." Hands shoot up, bids climb higher, and their greedy eyes devour you like nothing more than a tool. What will you do?
