Chapter 27 Auction House (2)



[ Sold to the Room #4! ]

I sighed as I watched Oscar buy another talisman that was supposed to boost his strength. The problem wasn\'t that it was a fake item - Loriel Auction was very trustworthy - but that he paid way too much for it.

Some people in the nearby rooms and in the hall would bid on purpose to drive up the price of the item and make the buyer lose more money.

"I\'ve got it!"

Oscar exclaimed, jumping up from the sofa. His eyes sparkled in the lights, like a newborn seeing the moon for the first time.

"Stop wasting your money on overpriced stuff..."

I nudged him in the back, but Oscar just shrugged his shoulders and gave me a side glance.

"I know what I\'m doing."

He said with a serious expression that didn\'t suit him at all. I could see the corners of his lips twitching as he tried to hold back a smile.

[ The next item is a Rare Griffin Feather! ]

The auctioneer\'s voice was full of excitement as I shifted my eyes back to the scene. A huge yellow feather was displayed under a glass dome.

All the awakeners in the Auction could feel the strange mana suction around the feather, which proved that it came from a very powerful creature.

Griffins didn\'t shed their feathers and when they died, their golden color turned into grey. But this feather was almost golden. That meant that someone had managed to get it from a living monster.

"I need th..."

Oscar was about to bid when I grabbed his hand and pulled him back to the sofa. He struggled to break free, but I held on tight.

"Don\'t you dare bid on this item!"

I said, trying to sound as intimidating as possible. Even though I acted like a good friend, it was for my own benefit... My heart couldn\'t stand watching him waste so much money in one session.

[ Sold to Lady Agnes for 3 Million Arcons! ]

The Griffin feather finally found a new owner and Oscar sighed. I let go of his hand. He could have broken free whenever he wanted, since he was stronger than me, but he didn\'t. That meant he respected my opinion somewhat.

"I could have asked one of my butlers to make a potion with that..."

Oscar muttered, watching as the feather was taken behind the massive red curtains. His eyes followed it like it was Rose.

I thought about the girl for a moment. I hoped she hadn\'t heard any rumors about me fighting those Lunatics. I really hoped she hadn\'t or else I would have to deal with one of the protagonists.

Rose was a character who in the game had no emotions for the opposite gender and never got close to Kai or Drake. Her mindset was to train hard, since having someone close might be a weakness that your enemies could exploit.

\'Being a main character is tough...\'

I realized how hard it actually was to be in their shoes. They were always thrown into pointless fights, had to save the entire world and didn\'t even have time to relax.

"..."

I felt a bit sorry for these guys, even though they were very strong. They could only rely on each other while fighting against the entire Demon Race.

Now that I had been reincarnated, I had to help them. It was for my own survival, but also to lighten the burden they carried. Even though I didn\'t want to reveal my true powers, I could help from the shadows by assassinating some annoying villains, manipulating a few things here and there...

[ ... For 5 Million Arcons! ]

The auctioneer\'s voice snapped me out of my thoughts and I glanced at the catalog. There would be a small 10-minute break before the second half of the auction started.

"Found anything interesting yet?"

Oscar tapped my shoulder, looking at the catalog pages I was flipping. I was browsing through various herbs and skill books, but nothing caught my eye. Sure, there were powerful skills and magic arts, but I didn\'t need them yet.

What I wanted were items that would help me advance in rank faster. There were herbs, but they were mostly for making potions of different grades for healing and mana recovery.

Suddenly, my eyes landed on a picture of a white sphere with a small description below it.

» - --> :

A small smile appeared on my face as I pointed at the item.

"I want this..."

Oscar followed my finger and looked at me for a moment. Then he shook his head and raised his hands in the air.

"Sure... Sure... I don\'t know what you\'re going to do with these cores, since they\'re only used to power devices, but okay..."

The auction resumed and soon the item I wanted to buy came up.

[ 250 G-Rank Cores... Starting bid 25,000 Arcons! ]

The bidding war began as Oscar and I waited for the perfect opportunity to place a bid.

[ Room #2, 50,000 Arcons! ]

The auctioneer announced, making me turn my head towards the room on the other side of the hall. It also had darkened windows, so I couldn\'t see the people inside it, but I could vaguely make out the silhouettes of a few women.

[ Room #4, 52,000 Arcons! ]

Oscar quickly wrote the number on the tablet we were given to write down our bids.

The casual participants sitting below the private rooms looked up to see if there would be a clash, but luckily, no one placed another bid.

[ Sold to Room #4! ]

I gave Oscar a thumbs up and he smiled.

After I got my item, the auction was like a TV show for us, since Oscar also decided to chill out until the end. We watched as people bid against each other for items. There were also some rioters who tried to fight each other, but the security quickly quelled the discord.

[ And now, ladies and gentlemen, we\'ve reached the last item of our auction... ]

The auctioneer said with a voice overflowing with excitement. This made everyone on their toes as they waited for the last item to be revealed.
