?286 Star sign bracelet

When the auction was in mid stages of bidding, Rio signaled Esme removed the enhancement on the front glass, making it two way. Immediately everyone could see who was sitting inside as their names or family/organization crest became visible on glass's top.

Another trick VIP's use in auctions to pressurize other bidders to not compete with them. Normally when any VIP rooms bid, they use the tablets given to them to type the amount and that'll show up on the glass window. But since the glass rolled down, now they have to speak up their own amounts. Showing their background, so everyone knows not to drag the items they want.

Seeing his actions, some of the other VIP rooms also followed suit, while most still preferred to remain secretive.

From the beginning to end, Rio didn't bid on anything yet, so when the next item appeared, he directly increased the price of an item by several fold, hoping to end the bidding instanously.

Yet how can it be so easy?

"50000 coins" A voice echoed as the glass from another room became clear. And Belmont's family crest of a red moon slashed by a broken sword became visible.

'Vanessa' Rio muttered and smiled. "70000 coins"

"100000 coins" Vanessa said, looking at him proactively.

Esme was about to bid again, but Rio just raised his hand and stopped her. There was no need to compete with her and waste money on stupid things.

"Sold to the miss in VIP room no. 7" The red lady said and smiled even more heartily. There was a madness in her eyes seeing the money rolling in constantly. Especially for these broken things in such high amounts.

The auction continued and whenever Rio bid on something, either Vanessa or someone from the Korbil family would bid more. While Vanessa spent everything to not let him get anything. Korbil's kept increasing the price until the time was about to run out and then let Rio bid again. So as to waste his money.

Though they themselves wasted quite the coins since there were times when Rio too left them hanging.

He didn't need to think about who was behind the Korbil family.

He could literally see Edward and Alfred chatting with each other. Korbil family being the partner for Sinclair's and with Sinclair's backing Alfred for the throne, it was all plain as day.

Rio could just shake his head about how these people who were supposed to be on opposite parties suddenly became partners now.

Ignoring them Rio turned his focus on a middle aged man with blindfold on standing beside Edward. He felt familiar, yet Rio couldn't remember where he had seen him.

'System, show me all the juicy details about him.' Rio said and instantly a panel opened in front of him.

'Wow' Rio said after seeing all the information system gave him for a couple thousand points.

'So another villain huh, I remember I gave his name to Riley.'

[Looks like your Eclipse ain't covering anything host. Forget the sun of Arcadia, it can't even hold this tiny island.] System joked seeing his thoughtful look.

'All the more reasons I need them sharp.' Rio said and waved his hand to Esme to move back a couple of steps and turn around, as he pulled his phone out and sent a message to Cersei, with the details and some photos of Dreyfus. fre enovelkiss.com

[Hire him or handle him.] That was the content of Rio's message.

'It seems Dante's first task has been found.' Rio said after getting confirmation from Cersei.

The auction kept going on and Rio was already hella bored just sitting there, spending money on scraps. Even the items he bought were thrown at Esme. Cuz otherwise Rio just might throw them in the trash can.

'Did the ring grandpa disappear from the auction and dropped at Leon's steps.' Rio joked to himself while yawning as he burned another Rubik's cube after finishing it.

He was about to buy some other game from the system shop to pass time, when the system suddenly closed its panel and formed an arrow, pointing at the stage.

"Next up on the list is a beautiful bracelet called 'Star sign'.. It's made of crystal stones and it shines brighter every day under the moonlight." The lady in red said while showing the silver bracelet to everyone. But seeing the full response to this useless bracelet, she further added with a longing gaze "I don't know about other girls, but I'd be quite happy if someone bought it for me."

"Starting price just 100 coins"

This time the crowd cheered and before she could even turn the sand clock, a fat middle aged man with greasy skin raised both his hands and directly shouted. "200 coins"

400 coins

"500. I'll buy this bracelet for you." The fat man said excitedly as his mouth salivated thinking about something not environmentally friendly.

"Huh, with your little money, keep dreaming. 1000 coins. Beauty, this young master will get this bracelet for you. How about we go for dinner afterwards?" Another dandy young master sneered and stood up to flatter the lady on stage.

While the crowd below the VIP rooms was excitedly bidding and increasing the price one by one, most of the guests just sneered seeing this beauty trap.

Only Leon was staring at the bracelet lost in thought. As if remembering something, he excitedly turned to look at Rebecca and then glanced at her hands. But not seeing what he was looking for there, he frowned.

But after shaking his past thoughts away, he looked back at the stage with determination and raised his hand to bid. "5 _"

But just before his words came out clearly, another loud voice interrupted him "50000 coins."

Everyone who was still arguing about the price and beauty's date, halted their words hearing the enormous price and then seeing it was someone from the VIP rooms.

Leon looked straight and saw it was Rio, who spoke. He was confused why he raised the price so much, but then he saw him looking at his direction with a smile.

'Did he sense something about the bracelet too?' Leon thought confusedly.

But then noticing something, he turned his head sideways and glanced at Rebecca who was disinterested throughout this auction, was eagerly looking at the stage and that bracelet now. As a slight smile formed on her face when she looked ahead at Rio's room.

'Damn it. He's buying it for her too.' Leon thought and clenched his fists.

[Leon feels pretty pissed host, you sure you wanna mess with him like this.] System said in a generous tone.

'You should say that after you stop smiling.' Rio said as he looked at the picture of angry Leon moving on his system panel, with extra effects of smoke leaving his head.
