Arthur and his family attend the tenth anniversary auction of the Helstea Auction House, where King Blaine Glayder and the royal family appear as guests of honor. During the auction, the king bids on a world lion cub as a gift for Prince Curtis. At the same time, Sylvie runs away and is discovered by the royal mage Sebastian, who recognizes her as a "valuable mana beast" and demands that Arthur hand her over.
When Arthur refuses, Sebastian threatens consequences for Arthur's family and orders his guards to seize Sylvie by force. Arthur's suppressed anger erupts in an uncontrolled outburst of mana, shaking the auction hall and necessitating an evacuation. After the situation calms down, the king presents Arthur with a choice: either surrender Sylvie in exchange for the world lion or fulfill Sebastian's demand.
Arthur rejects both options and poses a provocative question to the king: "At what price would you sell your own children?" Enraged, Sebastian orders his guards to attack Arthur. In the ensuing fight, Arthur employs time magic, overwhelms Sebastian, and breaks his leg, but pays for it with a collapse due to mana exhaustion.
After Arthur regains consciousness, the royal envoy Conglite visits the family. He delivers a chest of gold as "compensation" and reports that the attacking guards have been dismissed, Sebastian has been stripped of his position as royal mage and is undergoing treatment, and the king has labeled the incident an "unfortunate misunderstanding."
The episode concludes with the appearance of Cynthia Goodsky, the director of Xyrus Academy, who greets Arthur with the words: "I have been waiting for you."
