Chương 404: Chapter 404 Stone Auction 2

"Hera, I noticed you didn't place a bid on the highlight of the auction. Were you thinking of sitting this one out?" Liz whispered, her curiosity piqued. She glanced over at the overseer, who was now carefully lifting the boxes to reveal the bids inside.

"I thought you'd be all over it. This could be a big opportunity, and participating might give you an edge or even reveal some interesting details. Any particular reason you decided not to get involved?"

Hera could see the genuine curiosity in Liz's eyes and decided to share her thoughts. "I don't think that one's worth getting worked up about," she said with a nonchalant shrug. "I've got my sights set on something else. Sometimes it's better to focus on where you can really make an impact." She glanced towards the ongoing bidding with a thoughtful expression.
