Chapter 109



With so many eyes on her, Rosaline did not show any stage fright. She smiled calmly and confidently, and her behavior was capable and decent. She looked completely like a strong woman.

“First of all, on behalf of the Grace family, I welcome you all.”

“The Grace family is powerful and prosperous without everyone’s trust and support. I wish everyone can get what they want.”

“I declare… The auction begins!”

Under the thunderous applause, she walked down the stage, followed by a middle-aged auctioneer.

“First, the first auction item is…”

“A level-2 magic book of ice, frozen technique, the starting price is 10000 gold coins, and each time the bidding price is 1000 gold coins.”

Although the area of the auction house was huge, the auctioneer’s voice was still heard by everyone present. Obviously, he used some magic to transmit sound and spread it everywhere.

Ice attribute was a relatively rare magic property. A level-2 magic book of ice was relatively precious compared to other magic books.

As soon as the auctioneer finished his words, the audience on the bottom floor began to be restless, and many of them began to be tempted.

“Eleven thousand gold coins!”

“Twelve thousand gold coins!”

People began to bid.

However, compared to these people, the atmosphere on the 2nd and 3rd floors was much colder. The people who could sit here were all powerful. Level-2 ice magic was not enough to attract their attention.

“Mr. Count, I got the news that Locke Capet is in room 11.”

In room 3, Butler Dyna reported to Count Brandon, lowering her head.

Hearing Locke’s name, Count Bandon’s eyes flashed with coldness. Looking at the direction of the auction block, he said in a low voice, “The most important purpose today is not here. I’ll take care of him later.”

After saying that, he closed his eyes, as if he was waiting for something.

The auction went on.

Looking at the people who were bidding, Locke felt a little bored. He asked the maid behind him, “Is the Brandon family also here? Which room is it?”

It seemed that the man in front of her was really not from Saint Rebouhe City. Otherwise, how could he not know which private room the Brandon family was in? After all, for so many years, all the major forces had their own private rooms.

The maid replied, “Mr. Capet, the Brandon family is in room 3.”

“Room 3…” Locke rubbed his chin and thought for a while. Then he smiled weirdly.

Seeing the smile on Locke’s face, Athena immediately knew what he was thinking. “Do you want to have fun?”

Looking at the direction of room 3, Locke smiled faintly and said, “This bastard has caused me so many troubles. Of course, I have to pay him back.”

Bastard? Cause trouble? The maid was stunned for a moment, and quickly summarized the meaning of the conversation between the two. A few seconds later, she got an answer: the two people in front of her have enmity with the Brandon family!

The Brandon family was one of the top three families in Naton County, and Count Brandon was even more shocked by the fact that the Naton County family was about to shake three people. How could the two people in front of her want to take revenge on the Brandon family?

Locke didn’t know how shocked the maid was.

Locke asked, “Is there anything that is very popular in this auction? Or is there anything that the Brandon family wants?”

“If it was in the past, all the major forces might have been for the last few finales of the auction, but this year is really different.”

“A level-4 magic book of thunder from the Brandon family will be auctioned at this auction.”

The maid said slowly.

Hearing this, Locke suddenly became interested. “Why is the magic book of the Brandon family at the auction?”

“Half a year ago, the library of Brandon’s family was once stolen and a lot of magic books were lost. The final one is this level-4 magic book of thunder, which records the inherited magic of the Brandon family, thunder sword.”

“I’ve heard that the level-4 thunder magic can gather the power of thunder and form swords of thunder to kill enemies. Each thunder sword has an arc attached to it. Even if it is not directly concentrated, it will be hurt by the arc. Generally speaking, this magic is very powerful.”

“It’s absolutely a great shame for a family that the family’s magic book has been stolen. Count Brandon was furious about it and used all his strength to track down the thief, but he couldn’t find him in half a year.”

“Half a year later, when everyone thought that the thief had disappeared, unexpectedly, someone came to the Treasure Pavilion with the magic book of the Brandon family and asked for an auction in the Treasure Pavilion.”

Speaking of this, the maid laughed and said in a gloating tone, “Since their cultivation method has been auctioned, of course, the Brandon family is unwilling, but they have no choice but agree to sell it in private. But unfortunately, the auctioneer has already said that the magic book can only be auctioned.”

At this point, everyone knew that the auctioneer seemed to want to embarrass the Brandon family. Of course, the Brandon family also put pressure on the Grace family and asked the Grace family to hand over the magic book and provide the person who took out the magic book. However, the Gace family was a commercial family, and the most important thing for a businessman was reputation.

If the Grace family really caved in, their century-old reputation would be ruined, which was undoubtedly a devastating blow to a family that was based on business. So he resisted the pressure and insisted on a public auction.

Hearing this, Locke smiled and said to Athena, “This thief is very interesting. If I have the chance, I can make acquaintance with him.”

“If I were you, I would have set a fire and burned the whole library.”

Athena chuckled.

Locke’s eyes lit up and he was eager to have a try. “That’s good. Let’s try it sometime.”

The library was the lifeblood of a family. If they really burned the library of the Brandon family, it would be a heavy blow to the Brandon family.

The maid’s heart skipped a beat when she heard the conversation between the two. These two men really dared to do anything, one was crueler than the other.

Just as the two were planning to burn the library of the Brandon family, the auctioneer’s voice rang out again.

“The next auction item is a level-4 magic book of thunder.”

In room 3, Count Brandon suddenly opened his eyes and looked at the auction block.

“The starting price is 500 thousand gold coins. There is no limit to raising the price.”

Hearing this, the auction house suddenly became quiet. The people at the bottom didn’t dare to make a sound, and the people on the second floor also quieted down. Everyone knew that the magic book of the Brandon family would appear at the auction, so they naturally didn’t dare to make a sound at this time.

In front of such a powerful family like the Brandon family, it would be courting death if they dared to bid now.
