Chapter 33: Auction House (1/2)

Changing out of my school uniform, I donned a particular pitch-black suit crafted from a terrifying creature far above my current cultivation before making my way to the auction house in a carriage prepared by my company.

Surrounded by a few silver armed guards, we traveled a few kilometers towards a magnificent building that had a modern aspect towards it. With a cold elegant smile, I stepped out of my carriage as an elderly man with long grey hair welcome me with a bow, ”Ashen Prince, we were expecting you.”

”Manager Craig, it's been a while since I visited. Has my merchandise been sold yet,” I asked, my voice oddly colder than usual?

”No, my lord, the auction yet to...”

”Arsène!!!!” A loud voice sounded, startling everyone as a young man with Ashen Hair appeared, causing my guards to raise their weapons.

”Stand down,” I stated, eyeing my childish uncle with a kind smile.

To manager Craig's surprise, he saw Eroma wrap his arms around my neck, ”Shouldn't my little nephew be at the war academy?” He asked, giving me a childish smirk.

Eroma was truly a kid when he wasn't killing someone. I don't know what Grandfather did, but Eroma behaves like a child even though he was in his thirties, although he still looks like he is a teen.

”Eroma, please. Playing hooky is a must; that jackass, the second prince, joined my class today. I needed a day off.”

Shooting his brow up, he snickered, ”...didn't you start school a week ago...anyway then come with me, little nephew, shall we join this auction. Grey, that little shit gave me some pocket money.”

With an amused expression, I nodded, ”Of course, that's why I'm here. Manager Craig if you may please bring us to our booth.”

Following behind, Craig led us to a magnificent private booth high above the common people. With a bow, he excused himself.

”Little Sène, what is your business selling today. Grey had neglected to ask you while you were in the forest of Serien.” Eroma said in an oddly serious tone.

”Is he looking to buy some of my merchandise? Did you come here to pick it up?” I asked, already knowing the answer

”Yes, the rumors behind your clothing were leaked recently and is caused a huge steer within Pendragon.”

”Leaked? Uncle nothing was leaked. It was done intentionally. People like to believe rumors rather than facts. So exploiting such a concept, far more people are willing to join this auction.” I stated, crossing my legs as a young girl with long cat-like ears stepped into my booth.

Holding a bottle of Wine that was worth a few million Fel, she poured each of us a glass with a seductive smile. Eroma gave her a predatory smile before turning towards me, ”Little Sène, with all your schemes and plots. Have you gotten your little dick wet yet?”

Spitting the wine from my mouth, I coughed, ”Damnit, Eroma!”

Laughing, a gentle voice calming as the ocean sounded, ”Welcome ladies and Gentlemen, To Pendragons Auction house, Riverdale.

Standing below stood a magnificent specimen, her breast large and perky, draped in a tight cheongsam that showcased all types of curves. With large fox-like ears, she gave a smile that didn't quite reach her ears as she pursed her lips seductively, causing a great stir awakened within Riverdale.

”My name is Elsa Viola, your auctioneer for the remainder of this event.” She said, eyeing all the men in the room with her enchanting jade eyes.

Eroma was already hard up as he stared with hunger at the young woman. A deep Infatuation was present, yet all he did was exhale with an expression of complexity, ”Elsa, the bloody queen in the War of Gramor. She fought alongside Val butchering millions. I didn't think they would hire such a woman.”
