Chapter 489 - Zephyr (1) (1/2)

The auctioneer's declaration was shocking for everyone, including Auron. From what the auctioneer had said before, there should be one last item to auction.

”There should be one last item, right?”

”How come you stop the auction midway?”

What the auctioneer did make the audience go furious. However, of course, they could not do anything if the auctioneer firmly wanted to stop the auction.

After persuading and felt angry at the auctioneer, one by one, the audience started to leave the place. If the auction was discontinued, then there was no reason for them to be here.

Stopping an unofficial auction midway was not a rare occasion. However, the participant usually didn't know how many items the auctioneer would auction. That was why, when the auctioneer stopped the auction midway, the audience could not go crazy as they didn't even know how many items there would be.

The auctioneer would also have a reason if there was someone accused him of stopping midway.

Unfortunately, for this auction, the auctioneer had declared the number of items previously. Although there were no rules or punishment for stopping an unofficial auction midway, by doing this, the auctioneer also left a bad mark on his names.

It would be difficult for him to gain people's trust to join in his other auction in the future. Auron could not guess the reason why the auctioneer would do this. However, he believed that the auctioneer already knew the consequences and had a good reason for doing this.

One by one, the people started to disperse from the crowd. Auron also wanted to leave. However, he saw that the rich man was seeing him like he saw an enemy. Meanwhile, some people surrounded the rich man who was trying to start a conversation with him.

After glaring at Auron for a while, the rich man turned his body around and left the place, followed by the people around him.

Auron could only shake his head. He knew that this matter would not stop here. However, he hoped that the rich man would not use his backing's power, so he didn't have to use his own card.

Auron was about to leave when the auctioneer approached Auron. ”Do you have some spare time for a conversation?” The auctioneer smiled at Auron.

Auron felt weird. He didn't know anything about the auctioneer. This was also his first time meeting the auctioneer. So, Auron was confused about the reason why the auctioneer would want to talk to him.

Then, a sudden thought came into Auron's mind. ”Perhaps, he is...?”

”No, I need to say that I am a straight man.” Auron thought inside his mind.

The auctioneer had guessed what was on Auron's mind, and he quickly added, ”This is related to the last item of my auction that I canceled. However, we cannot talk here. Let's go to my room.”

Auron felt relieved when he heard that. Then, he nodded and followed the auctioneer to the auctioneer's room.
