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.
"Up next is an item that even we ain't sure of. But from the Intel we gathered, this specific item is one of a kind, since anything that deals with light being compressed into a stone is rare. Up next is the Holy Spirit ban stone.
The starting price is forty thousand Ruby stones". Ella said not expecting anything but a bid, but the next second her expectations were overruled.
"Seventy thousand Ruby stone, " Sunny immediately said through the speaker in the room. The reason why Sunny Sky rocketed the price this high was to make everyone feel despair and give up on bidding with him.
But sometimes things do not go the way one plans. On hearing the bidding, there was silence. Everyone refused to speak. Even the auctioneer, Ella, was simply shocked. "I guess I'm getting my promotion", Ella silently thought while maintaining her outward composure.
Which, after what seems to be a time freeze, exclamation once again erupted like wildfire. "Who in their right mind would just bid sixty thousand Ruby stone? Was he a son of God? Cause there was no logical explanation for how he got the money".
Seeing everywhere was silent, sunny smirk knowing fully well that he had indirectly shut down the whole auction house. Seeing that no one was going to bid, Ella started the countdown, "going once, going twice and...
"Eighty thousand Ruby stone", another voice lazily said from another part of the vip room. At this point, no one dared to breathe; they all felt the pressure of the powerful, influential figures who were staying in the vip area.
"Interesting", Sunny said. "What's interesting? Master" Lilith naively asked. "Nothing, just carry on eating your grapes", Sunny said as he gently patted her cheeks. Which instantly becomes red.
At this point, Sunny decided not to bid, again awaiting the perfect moment to crush everyone in one swoop.
"One twenty thousand Ruby stone", "one fifty thousand Ruby stone", "two hundred and one thousand Ruby stone", "two hundred and twenty one thousand Ruby stone". The voice in the vip rooms started bidding aggressively.
Indirectly showing their wealth and influence at the same time. Though most of them did not know the use of the stone, seeing sunny place put a high price on the stone sparked curiosity in their eyes. As the saying goes rich people are usually greedy.
At this point, the bidding carried on, and the less privileged could only look. Cursing the rich for throwing away money in such an extravagant way.
"Ain't they going too overboard just for a stone"? A guy in a white dress asked his friend by his side. Who simply shushes him up without replying, clearly drawn to the displacement of power between the VIPS.
"Five hundred and ninety-nine thousand Ruby stone", a voice from the far end corner of the vip room said. At this point, the bidding was starting to slow down, though they were wealthy, but they went stupid. That amount of money could build an entire city with advanced technology.
Even giving the less privileged, who couldn't summon beats some low-level beasts. "Five hundred and ninety-nine thousand Ruby stone going once, going twice, and...
"One million Ruby stone", sunny lazily said voice cold and emotionless. At this point, all gaze was directed towards the voice; even those VIPs turned their eyes towards the source of the voice.
Was the stone truly worth that much, or was he Batman or Tony Stark? They all knew that it was only those two would have the ordercity to throw money away like that. But the truth was even the holy ban stone wasn't worth that much. But Sunny was willing to make that sacrifice for Lilith.
At this point, murmur and whisper were loudly heard as some people were dissatisfied with how Sunny was spending his money.
"Look into him", a man wearing completely black, with a smoke pipe in his mouth, said. As a shadowy figure appeared and disappeared almost instantly, it appeared, vanishing without a trace.
"One million Ruby stone. Going one, going twice, and sold" ella happily announced. As the auction once again carried on, but it was nearing its end, Ella also noticed that people were more productive with the rest of the auction.
Simply unintentionally mimicking sunny behaviour. And with the last auctioned item, it was already near dawn.
"And with that, we have come to the end of the auction for the next two years. We thank you all for participating in this wonderful auction. And for those who are not ready to leave yet and still want to socialise and network.
"You can simply head to the banquet area, on the left side of the auction. Don't worry, food and drinks are on the house", and with that, Ella performed a slight bow before going backstage.
"Master, Master, wake up", Lilith said cutely as she gently. Pinch sunny face. Who slowly blinked his eyes into existence. As Sunny got up and stretched his legs, " Hum, looks like some people will be on before me, Sunny thought.
As he and Lilith went to the auction underground area to receive the holy Spirit ban stone. On arrival, they were respectfully greeted by all the working staff.
Arriving at the collection spot, a tall, light-skinned lady in a red dress carried a soft, small red pillow in her hands. Resting upon it was a storage ring at least worth twelve thousand Ruby stones.
Casually taking the ring, while scanning through the content. A very satisfied smile slightly appeared on Sunny's face, and with this, he has successfully gathered all the necessary materials for Lilith's evolution and cure.
"Tell your manager that I will pay him a visit, one of these days". Sunny said as an underground passage automatically opened up, and he and Lilith entered it before it closed back down. "I will", Mika said while looking and admiring Sunny's faded figure.
Inside the underground passage, the water was filled with chaos. That crashed and rolled against the wall, but even with all this the wall did not for a second quiver. Waiting for them was a gigantic whale, judging from its aura, Sunny guessed that it would be at least the last stage of silver.
Dangerously close to gold. Climbing on its huge back, Lilith rested on Sunny's back, hands holding his waist, boob's pressed slightly on his back. Seeing that she was comfortable in the back, Sunny gently tapped the whale, which dived deeply into the chaotic water.
But a layer of bubble shield covered both Sunny and Lilith. Shielding them from the chaotic water flow, they emerged from the end of the tunnel as sunny and Lilith got down from the whale's back. It immediately swam back towards their starting point.
Waiting for them was the lambo bus. Parked neatly at the edge of the underground tunnel.
On reaching the car, the door automatically opens. As they both got into it, the door once again closed.
Where to sir? " Weeping willow forest, " Sunny said as the chauffeur immediately started the car. Zooming off towards the sunny set location.
"Mater, are we going to begin my evolution and cure in the weeping willow forest"? Lilith asked with uncertainty, "Yes, we are going to immediately begin your evolution and cure upon getting there".
Sunny said with a giggle, "But master the name of the forest sounds scary" Lilith said once again, entering into Sunny's embrace. Seeing her shy character, Sunny couldn't help but smile in amusement, "Don't worry, the name is nothing but scary". Sunny said with a reassuring tone.
