Chapter 46：Fruit of Invisibility (2/2)

Now, Daniel even started to suspect that this old bastard was intentionally trying to provoke him. Nonetheless, he could not do anything to him anyway; he could just bid higher than Lionsteel.

However, he could not bid much higher because he was here for the adamantine. If all the gold he would waste on the 'Fruit of Invisibility', he won't be able to compete for the adamantine.

Coincidentally, Daniel was the mage of the metal element, and his supporting element was the fire. He always wanted to acquire some powerful metal to increase his strength. However, at this time when he saw the 'Fruit of Invisibility', a tempting expression appeared on his face.

Finally, Daniel gritted his teeth and increased the bidding, ”Eight thousand!”

After eight thousand, the Lionsteel didn't continue to bid. When Daniel didn't receive any reply from the opposite side, a victorious smile curved at the corner of his lips. However, before he could celebrate his victory, another voice echoed in the auction hall.

”Nine thousand!”

Daniel, who was smiling victoriously just a second before suddenly stood up with a shocked expression. Finally, shock turned into furious expression, but this time he didn't lose the composer like before and restrained himself from cursing.

Afterwards, Daniel took a few deep breaths and sat on his seat before turning towards his servant and asked with red eyes, ”Who is that guy?”

He had never received any setbacks in his life, and now he was humiliated in this auction house twice. But there was nothing he could do; he was just the 1st level high mage. How could he stand in front of these great mages?

After hearing the query of Daniel, his servant started to tell him about the person who was bidding, ”Young Master, His name is Hellshard, who is also a great mage, and he came from our neighbouring kingdom — Vigon Kingdom.

He is most probably here for the adamantine. I don't know why he is spending so much gold on this fruit.”

After hearing the name of Vigon Kingdom's name, Daniel frowned and fell into deep thinking. 'Why did he come to the Stolux kingdom?'

Although he was arrogant to the core, he wasn't stupid. The Vigon Kingdom and the Stolux Kingdom were enemies for many years. Then, why suddenly, a great mage of the enemy kingdom would appear here?

Anyways, Stolux kingdom could not harm the Hellshard inside their territory without any reason. Or the Vigon Kingdom would have the excuse to attack the Stolux kingdom. Although both the kingdoms were middle grade, the Vigon kingdom's strength was double as compared to the Stolux Kingdom.

Furthermore, both the kingdoms had signed the treaty that no one would kill the innocent people of another kingdom if they visit for doing business or other purposes without any malicious intentions.

Therefore, it was normal for ordinary people to visit the other kingdom. However, it wasn't a regular thing, when a great mage of the enemy kingdom visits your kingdom, just to participate in the auction.

”Ten thousand!”

Just as Daniel was lost in his thought, another voice echoed throughout the auction hall.

Daniel turned towards his servant and wanted to ask about the identity of the person, but his servant looked at him and fell on his knees, ”Young Master, I wasn't able to find out the identity of this person, but he is sitting in the number one room.”

Daniel frowned when he heard the reply of his servant and kicked at the head of the servant.

”Bang!”

”Useless!” Daniel shouted.

Subsequently, the body of the servant was smashed towards the corner of the room and fell on the ground like a dead pig.

Nonetheless, after sometime later, his body moved, and the servant crawled out from the corner. The whole face of the man had swelled due to the previous hit. The blood was continuously flowing from his head, painting his entire face red, a truly pitiful sight.

After that, the servant looked at Daniel and again fell on his knees and started to beg for forgiveness.

Nevertheless, Daniel didn't spare a second glance to the servant; he wasn't in a mood to play with a lowly servant. Then, he again turned his attention towards the auction hall.

”Our friend in room number one has bided Ten thousand golds! Is there someone else who wants to bid higher?” Uncle Goldwar asked with a loud voice.

After single bidding, Hellshard didn't bid any longer, neither anyone else.

After waiting ten seconds, he didn't receive any reply, so he started to count the number, ”One… Two … Three… Sold!”

”Now, this 'Fruit of Invisibility' belongs to the person inside the room number one!”

Ayaan, who was sitting inside room number one, had his lips curved in a smile and thought, 'I didn't think that I would be able to win this easily.'

Nonetheless, it was even better that he was able to win the biding without any problem.

However, suddenly Ayaan's brows twitched and sensed the strong soul power covering his room.
