As the ginatic magical glass door closed with a "thud", both the maid exited when they were done with their duties.
Pouring a cold bottle of tequila, for his self, Sunny slowly savoured the taste. As the smell of rich fragrance wine spread across the auction room.
"Master is the auction going to start soon"? Lilith, who was eating snacks, asked as she lay down on the couch, back facing the ceiling with her legs slowly swinging from time to time.
"Yes", Sunny said as he continued to listen and look at what was going on downstairs. Not long after, time seemed to slip very fast. Which before they all knew it, it was already deep within midnight.
And with a loud bang, the auction bell rang so loud that it immediately awoke those who were sleeping, but not Sunny and Lilith, cause they were both keeping each other company with jokes and laughter.
"Humm... Master, what's that bell that rang"? Lilith asked as she put a peeled orange into her mouth, "Hmmm, this girl is always eating Sunny thought as he slowly giggled. That's the auction bell that rang", Sunny said as he adjusted his mask on his face.
As the auction light dimmed, the only source of light became what was coming out from the auction platform, which was bright blue, giving the auction house an extremely comfortable feeling.
"May I have your attention please"? A voice that was soft and pleasing said, a voice that attracted almost everyone present.
"May I officially welcome you to the second auction hosted this year by black moons? We are more than pleased to offer our sincere welcome to all who cut out of their schedule to be here".
"And that being said, we will officially kick off with the auction. The first auction that will be auctioned off today is called the Immortal Sword of Corruption", Ella said that was the name of the auctioneer.
As a cart that was covered completely with white clothing was pushed by a guy in a tuxedo suit onto the stage, as he respectfully bowed and left, lightly waving her hand vertically, the white piece of clothing instantly vanished.
Revealing a sword that was more than four meters long, with eyes on its body. Looking at the swords would make one's hair stand on end. A visible dark aura circled across the swords, forming a dark mass of black matter.
"As you can all see, this sword was found in the lost plane of Dom. Deep within the lost forgotten rune of Vang, chained and bound by numerous chains, the one who wields this sword, both he and his summon, will be able to jump over two smaller ranks immediately while this sword is in use".
As soon as these words were dropped, exclamation spread across the hall like wildfire. A small, unnoticeable smile spread across Ella's face.
"And that is not all, this particular sword can be used to hone and channel dark magic. And can also be used by mages, so as you have all heard and seen, this is not your normal daily sword. The starting price is four thousand ruby stones", Ella said, as the bidding immediately started to rise.
"Five thousand Rubystones", "seven thousand Rubystones", "twelve thousand Rubystones". Immediately, this was said, all eyes were turned toward the person who had bid twelve thousand Rubystonese. Which was no joke.
But thanks to the mask, they were all wearing, their identities were kept safe. Seeing that no one was bidding again, Ella started the countdown. "Going once, going twice, and....
But before she could complete her sentence, the hall fell into deadly silence. As someone bid thirty thousand Ruby stones from the vip area. Immediately making everyone's blood run cold, as they all look toward the vip area.
Hoping to see the stupid figure that bid such a price, but thanks to the magical glass covering all the vip rooms. They couldn't even see a thing, even if they used their spiritual sense.
"Young lady a panicked voice sounded, inside one of the vip rooms. Pardon me for my boldness I will be more than willing to give my head to you on a spike. But isn't your bidding a little off the spike? No, what am I saying, your bidding is like an instant spike".
Butler Gux Ying said with a panicked voice, while holding a glass tray with wine on it, "Young lady, if the mistress finds out about this, she will simply be annoyed. And I fear for my family, please consider your bidding", Butler Gux Ying said with his head bowed deeply.
Giggling slightly, Anabell couldn't help but stretch her hands slightly. "You worry too much, don't worry, you will be just right fine, she won't dare to lay a single finger on you, talk of your family", Annabel said. Not taking the situation seriously.
As she stretched the empty glass cup in her hand, Butler Gux Ying filled it up with wine.
Inside the sunny auction room, Sunny couldn't help but murmur one word. "Interesting", even he himself will never dare to just playfully throw thirty thousand ruby stones, for a useless lost sword.
Seeing that no one was going to raise the bid any higher. Ella once again started the countdown, "going once, going twice, and sold congratulations to the mysterious figure who bought the sword. It will be personally delivered to you shortly".
After this, the guy in a tuxedo suit came once again and took the sword away, and with this, the auction continued with various items being brought out and displayed. As the shout of bidding resounded through the auction house.
"Master, ain't you going to buy anything? Lilith said, her head resting on Sunny's lap. "No, not yet, they are all just useless pieces of equipment, nothing worth buying". Sunny said as he continued to play with Lilith's hair as she gigled from time to time, clearly enjoying such treatment. While paying deep attention to what was going on with the bidding.
As someone who has a share in the dark Web, Sunny wasn't fooled by the various eyes tempting items that were being displayed. If he wanted to, he could get them directly from the black market, but even in the black market, some items couldn't be found.
But it could also end up in an auction house, due to the founder not knowing what it was or not having use for it and maybe not having access to the dark Web. As it says, not everyone had access to the dark Web; only those of equally higher status could access it.
Just then, when Sunny was beginning to lose interest and was planning on leaving. The item he longed for and hoped for was finally brought out, though the description wasn't accurate, but one will simply know gold when one sees it.
