Chapitre 1492: Excited Checking

Alex walked out of the auction house and met up with the other kings as well as Lady Zhan. He thanked the two as soon as he met them, which was not surprising to the other two monarchs.

The Silver Queen had contacted everyone else most likely and by now they all knew who had won the artifact.

"Congratulations on winning the final bid, Your Majesty," she said.

Alex smiled. "You nearly beat me too, Queen Mao," he said. "I have to thank you that you stepped back at the last moment. I had no more spirit stones after that."

The Silver Queen's eyes looked at him in surprise and then it grew incredulous when she realized he wasn't lying. "So… I lost because I gave up?" she asked.

"Did you have any more to spend?" Alex asked.

The Silver Queen nodded. "I had just found someone to aid me after you refused to help me," she said. "But once the bid crossed 250 thousand, I thought it was better if I didn't continue."
