The Absolute beast Tamer-Chapter 56: AUCTION (1)

Laura: "Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Blue River auction. We hope that you will enjoy your time here and have a great experience with us. My name is Laura, the operation head manager of the Blue River Chamber of Commerce. I will be your host and representative for the day."

Alan and his family, together with the hunts, watched Laura performing the opening segment of the auction with confidence and ease.

Rosaline: "That girl is not bad at all."

Ariana: "She’s amazing. The level of confidence that she has is something that many only wish to have."

Alan: "Indeed, big sister. Laura looks cool."

Lana, who watched Alan mesmerized by the confident display of Laura, felt a tightness in her chest as she asked herself, would I be able to do it with ease just like her?

....

Laura: "Without further delay, we will start presenting the items.

The first item for the auction is a rare 6th-class treasure called The Emberstone, a water attribute treasure that is found only in a specific secret realm called the Lake of Days.

The starting bidding price is 500 million federation dollars."

"510 million"

"550 million"

.

.

"610 million"

.

.

Laura: "We have 870 million. Do we have 875? 870 million goes twice, 870 million sold to the guest in room number 45."

…..

The auction started to get more lively by the minute as a fierce bid war started with every item better than the last.

Mason: "The auction is a big success. The higher the class of treasure, the more the value inflates. For 7th class treasures and above, the bidding can only be done with beast cores or ENA crystals. Kid, you are going to be filthy rich."

Alan: "Uncle Mason, you yourself know that no matter how many resources a beast tamer had, he could never be wealthy enough."

Mason: "Indeed, you’re right, but for someone your age, you are doing much better than anyone in your age group. In fact, you are doing much better than many veterans."

Lana: "The veterans you are talking about, Dad, would not include you, right?"

With a smile on her face, Lana teased her father.

Rosaline: "Hahahahaha, Alan, you are a rich man now, so you have to prepare dinner later for all of us. Make it a three-course dinner, or else you will be called a miser."

Ariana: "I am proud of you, son. I guess Rosa has been poisoned by your delicious cooking too."

Alan: "With pleasure, Madam Hunt."

What Rosaline was genuinely surprised at was not Alan’s excellence, as she had seen so much already that she became completely numb, completely agreeing that this young man is in a league of his own. But what surprised her the most was how composed her new big sister, Ariana, is, as most ordinary people would go crazy in expressing their happiness when getting such a wealth.

But for Ariana, she was completely composed and relaxed, as if this whole wealth did not mean anything to her. With such a character, she found herself liking Ariana more and more every day.

The auction proceeded smoothly until the last 8th class treasure was sold.

After going at it for more than 3 hours, Laura announced a 15-minute break before presenting the last two treasures, which are the main attraction for the auction today.

.....

Laura: "We are back with you after a short break, which I hope recharged your enthusiasm, as we will be presenting the two jewels of our auction. Ladies and gentlemen, without any delays, I present to you one of the last two items, the 9th class treasure, the hassanga flower. Please look at the screen that shows the appraising report."

Name: [Hasanga Flower]

Class: [9th class resource]

This chapter is updated by freēwēbnovel.com.

Description: [a special type of flower that was nurtured by Ena for more than 100 years, extremely valuable as it can help in the cultivation of both Ena cultivators and beasts, can be used to make a special potion that can allow an 8th stage being to immediately break through to the 9th stage]

Laura: "Cultivation has brought salvation to the human race but also presented the cruel side of it, as someone may need a very long time to break through from one stage to another, and many of us humans sometimes get stuck at one stage for a very long time, which may prevent us from moving forward. That’s where this supreme treasure comes in, which can give you the chance to advance in one go from the eighth stage to the ninth. Such a treasure is a desired item for all, and we presented it to you today. The starting bid will be 10 million ENA crystals.

"12 million"

Someone who was in the VIP chambers suddenly released his aura, making a bid.

"14 million"

Another one who did not seem to be intimidated by the released aura at all released his own aura and made a bid.

Bids started coming one after the other, but almost all of them came from the VIP chambers.

"21 million, I hope that everyone can give me some face. I am the White Wolf."

Mason: "Hoho, the white wolf is here."

Alan: "Who is that?"

Mason: "He’s a titled beast tamer who made a name for himself adventuring at the front lines, from what I have heard about him. He is no joke; I guess this treasure will be his as there are not many who would not give the titled beast tamer a face."

Just as he had finished talking, there was another loud voice coming from another VIP chamber.

"25 million, white wolf. This is an auction. Let’s compete fairly with our wealth. Your intimidation tactics are worthless."

Nobody in the venue believed that there would be another bid after the white wolf announced his desire for the treasure, but everyone was surprised when they heard that there was another bid and not just any bid, increasing the price by 4 million ENA crystals in one go.

Alan: "What did you say, Uncle Mason? I didn’t hear you."

Mason felt embarrassed as he cursed his luck. He did not mind being wrong, but being wrong in front of this kid whose daughter clearly had feelings for did not sit well with him.

Alan pretended that he did not hear anything and focused on the bid war that is going on.

"28 million"

"You really don’t want to give me any face, huh?"

"I told you let’s fight with our wealth; you are becoming a senile white dog."

"You!!! You are the mad butcher; you didn’t come all the way here after me just to make a fight, did you?"

"You are too self-conscious; I’m just here to make a bid."

The mad butcher sound was teasing, to say the least.

"Damn you butcher 30 million."

.

.

.

Lana: "They seem to know each other."

Mason: "another titled High class beast Tamer from what I heard The Mad butcher has some bad blood with white wolf"

Alan: "They would not start fighting here? Right."

Rosaline: "Do not worry; the mayor is here. I don’t think they are stupid enough to make trouble knowing the mayor’s estate is the one responsible for security and protection. Only if they are ready to become an enemy of the federation, then yeah, maybe they will fight."

The bidding war was concluded with the white wolf’s victory at the price of 45 million ENA crystals, which was at least 15 million more than the actual price.

Nova: "Master, I can feel it again!! The same weird and sinister energy is building up around the venue."

Alan: "Where did you feel it before?"

Alan’s expressions changed as he knew how sensitive Nova can be, as even high-class beasts can’t preclude Nova’s acute senses.

Nova: "In the forest when we clashed with the lunatics!!!!"

Feeling a clenching sensation in his stomach as he knew what Nova was talking about.

Alan: "Uncle Mason, we have…."

Before he could finish his sentence His attention was drawn to the middle of the stage where Laura was getting ready to present the last treasure; suddenly someone seated within the guest seats moved at a high speed with a sinister energy radiating from every bone in his body, targeting Laura, who was completely unaware.

Alan: "Nova!!!!"

Within a millisecond Laura froze when she saw the man coming at her with a bloodlust radiating from his crazy eyes, ready to kill her.

Only for Laura to vanish into thin air when she was almost within his grasp.

Suddenly the whole venue started shaking as a blinding light formation completely covered the whole place, encrypted with ancient runes.

Catching everyone off guard.

Many individuals mixed with the guests and stood up from their seats as they started chanting.

""Khar’zul, Vor’ath, Nyx’thra! Dov’zhul, Kael’drin, Rha’goth! Astra’goth, Vor’gath, Kael!"

"From the shadows I call you, creature of tooth and claw. From the depths I summon you, where darkness holds its maw. Rise from slumber, awaken from your dream; I offer you my will."

The men who chanted took out some ceremonial daggers as they plunged them deeply in their hearts, which gave Alan and everyone else in the venue the chills.
