章節 21: Chapter 21: First Companion (2)
As the auction progressed, Z bought nothing aside from the Hextal.
"We now reached the final part of the auction. The first showcase of the final part - Blue rank Scepter! bidding starts at 10 000 blue crystals!"
'I heard that scepter is a weapon of mana. If I'm not wrong, then mana should be the energy of the heart. I should probably get this.' Z thought
"100 000 blue crystals"
"120 000 blue crystals!"
"160 000 blue crystals!
Bids reverberated across the hall as a fierce bidding war began.
"Room 2 bids 300 000 blue crystals!" said the auctioneer.
"Please give face to the Royce Family" a sound came from the room 2
The room went silent.
"Uhm, can I still bid" asked Z to Lara
"Of course, sir. If you become a student of Cynosure, you do not have to fear anyone's status. That is how high Cynosure is!"
Z was excited, he remembered when the old man told him that it was a place seeked by people all around the world 1 000 years ago. 'Seems like it's status did not change'
"Room number 3 bids 350 000 blue crystals"
"Please give face to the Royce family" the room reiterated
Z did not respond at all.
"Tsk" sounded the room
"Room number 2 bids 400 000 blue crystals"
"Room number 3 bids 500 000 blue crystals"
"Room number...
The bidding war continued until it reached a staggering amount
"Room number 2 bids 2 500 000 blu--"
"Give face to the Royce family!!" The room shouted
"How shameless" murmured the people below the hall
"Room number 3 bids 3 000 000 blue crystals"
"Smash!" as the sound of something breaking came from the room 2
______
"Those damned bastards!" a young man cursed.
"Appease your anger, young master Waltz" said the old butler behind the young man
"Find out who it is in that room! I'm gonna kill that son of a *****"
______
With no one else bidding, Z got the scepter.
"Seems like I offended a big family, haha." Z jokingly said
"Don't worry, sir. No one can touch you inside the academy. The regulations there are strict after all."
"Haha, seems like I'm very fortunate"
Lara just responded with a smile. From the ignorance and eccentric attitude of Z, she would be a rock if she did not notice that he did not have any background. 'Must have been a disciple of a hidden expert' is what she thought.
"Next item is another grimoire! But this time - Indigo ranks Grimoire! Bidding starts at 20 000 blue crystals"
"There you go, sir! It is only second to Violet rank"
Lara remarked
"Okay, I will go for it"
Z won the item again, as his crystals did not take any noticeable change. One can not that the 3 000 000 blue crystals he paid earlier is only 300 violet crystals
"For the last item in this auction. Behold! A mythic beast's egg!"
Discussion filled the entire hall. It is worth noting that an egg is worth far greater than an actual beast since it will be completely loyal to whoever hatches it. Furthermore, it is a mythical beast!
"Mythical beast?" as Z asked again
"It is the rarest type of beast, and considered as the strongest in the same level. You can never go wrong with that one, sir. It is even an egg!" answered Lara
"Hehe, seems like I found my first companion" Z said with extreme joy
"The beast was sourced from a client and they did not know what beast it is but I don't have to tell you that these engravings confirm that it is a mythical beast." said the auctioneer while showcasing the beautiful engravings carved in the egg itself "Bidding starts at 1 000 000 blue crystals"
_____
The bidding war rages as it reaches astronomical values that are now only contested by the private rooms.
"Room number 4 bids 780 000 000 blue crystals"
"Room number 1 bids 800 000 000 blue crystals"
"Room number 2 bids 810 000 000 blue crystals"
"Room number 3 bids 1 000 000 000 blue crystals!"
Silence filled the room.
"Damn those rich kids..." many people remarked.
The bidding war continues until Z won it with 150 000 violet crystals
_____
"Did you found out who they are yet?" asked Waltz
"The house wouldn't reveal any information, young master"
"How come!? Tell them it is the Royce family!"
"They still denied it, sir"
"Those damned bastards! Just follow them. Kill them on sight!"
"Yes, young master."
