章 82: A Deal for Favorable Marks

The crowd erupted in shock and amazement at the auctioneer's statement. Erwin was confused, not understanding what the auctioneer meant by "first circle."

'I am first circled, mage?' 

"Excuse me, auctioneer, how can we believe that Erwin is a first circle mage?" one bidder spoke up from the crowd.

The auctioneer's face lit up with a smile. "Well, my friend, take a look at this."

Erwin watched as the auctioneer held up his hand for all to see. The auctioneer gestured towards Erwin's right hand, and the crowd leaned in to get a better look. Erwin held out his hand, and to his shock, he saw a small circle tattooed on his pinky finger.

The circle on his pinky finger glowed in the dim light, and the crowd's gasps and murmurs grew louder with each passing second. He felt his heart race with anticipation as he waited for the auctioneer's response. 'Is am gonna get a good master with this glowing pinky?'
