As time went on, the bidding for the Celestial Jade Tablet continued to rise, albeit more slowly now that it had reached a level where only two or three individuals could continue increasing their offers.
In the end, Emrys secured the Celestial Jade Tablet for 25 trillion credits.
Andrea, Laura, and Caurso stared at Emrys with wide eyes, as if they were looking at a tycoon. They knew Emrys was powerful but hadn't expected him to be rich as well—crazy wealthy, at that.
Generally speaking, the last item of the auction was usually the most valuable. However, the value of the Celestial Jade Tablet was something no one thought another item could match.
Emrys thought the same. Most importantly, he was still not sure whether the Celestial Jade Tablet was the item Elysia talked about or not.
The auction continued, and items were sold one after another.
