After contacting many of their connections, the butler Dian had managed to increase their funds to 1.6 billion. Normally this amount should be more than enough to buy an one time use item like a scroll no matter how rare that was.
But their opponent for this duel of bidding was none other than Elena. After her bidding of one billion was challenged she did not even bat an eye and immediately double the bid.
With that, she again had no other competitors left. Castrotini Astroyume was unwilling to lose but as he did not have enough money, he had no other way but to accept his defeat. Still, Castrotini had not fully given up on getting his hands on this scroll yet.
"Dian, go and try to find out all the available information about the person who is getting in our way. If she is within our capability to handle, get the scroll from her. If not, then let's just forget about it."
