"Going once! Going Twice! Sold to the patrons in VIP Room Number 7 for 100, 000 gold coins!" The announcer stated with such an enthusiastic voice.
The last bidding came from the female voice from VIP Room Number 7 and Adrian rejoiced. He basically cashed in by a lot because of this transaction and all he did was steal an egg. He did not really want the Light Phoenix anyway since Saena is more powerful than it because she can evolve into true divine bird.
"Thank you for all that participated in the auction. All those that have successfully bid their items will need to stay for the verification of the buying process and official records. Let us meet again in fortune!" The announcer stated with a large smile as he could already feel his pockets getting lined up as he will get 3% commission for each sale he has accomplished.
Adrian watched as the people he is observing quietly exited the auction hall, but he did not stop being vigilant. Adrian tasked Sirius to always monitor the individuals and get Charon's help if needed. The auction finished without a big fight but that was avoided because of Adrian stopping it earlier on.
There have been record fights in auction halls when things get heated, and guards are sometimes late to disperse it. The fact that Adrian, who is the Lord of Avalon, moved by himself meant a greater punishment should something really happens. Adrian is about to exit the auction hall when Piggy Bank suddenly stopped him.
"Is there something you need?" Adrian asked as Piggy Bank was a little hesitant.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"The one who bought the Light Phoenix Egg wants to speak with you. It seems they want to buy your information." Piggy Bank stated.
"I did say that, but I did not think that they will actually ask for it. Powerful people are often proud that they will do things by themselves but that is not the case. I shall comply as I will get money out of it. Please lead the way." Adrian stated as he followed behind Piggy Bank.
Adrian then messaged Ark to look after the angels while they are in the territory since he is the only one that could detect them. Adrian was about to follow them out, but he needed to do something. Thankfully, Ark agreed as he is also wary of the angels that came to Avalon because he thought that his location was compromised.
Adrian was led to VIP Room Number 7 where he met a player, and it is a female. She had quite a distinct appearance because she had hair that is bright green in color. She also has a distinct smell like that of a reptile and Adrian could see that her pupils are that of a snake.
She was not alone as he had other players surrounding her which meant that she had a group. The thing that Adrian noticed is that she has a guild crest on her cape which Adrian also has. The guild crest that she has is that of an echidna.
"Greetings, Lord of Avalon. My name is Ochia, and I am the guild master of the Echidna guild." Ochia stated as she introduced herself with a smile, but one could tell that she exuded the aura of a noble lady.
"Nice you meet you as well. My name is Equinox, Lord of Avalon and Guild Master of the Pantheon Guild." Adrian replied in a courteous manner which emanated the same level of dignity that Ochia exuded.
Ochia noticed that Adrian's manners are that of people that know of etiquette befitting of people that are of high standard. Adrian also noticed this with Ochia as well from just her initial greeting. Adrian now knows why she could afford a whopping 100, 000 gold coins as if it was pocket money.
"I wish that I could also do that, but it is every man for themselves in that household when it comes to money for leisure spending." Adrian thought.
"I will not beat around the bush as you seem like that kind of person but help me hatch this egg." Ochia stated as she already performed the sealing ritual on it.
"I can help you just like I told earlier but that will cost you." Adrian stated.
"How much?" Ochia asked.
"10, 000 gold coins." Adrian stated blatantly as he needed to aim higher should they want to negotiate.
"Deal!" Ochia replied without even missing a beat which shocked Adrian. He thought that he would have to negotiate the price with her, but she easily accepted it.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Even if you have lots of money, I think you should still negotiate for a lower price." One of her guild members stated as they think that it is still a ridiculous price.
"I can tell that the price of 10, 000 is not just basic information but he will also help me hatch it. Am I right?" Ochia stated which made Adrian baffled.
Adrian actually thought of offering it for 10, 000 gold coins with his help. He would only give information if the price was below that as that is not enough to move him. He lost quite a bit of his personal funds because of upgrading the territory.
"You are very sharp. As expected of the third rank player in the Summoner Rank List." Adrian stated as he already remembered where he heard or saw her name from.
"I have always been praised for that. Here is 10, 000 gold coins. Please accept." Ochia stated as she gave a pouch to Adrian.
[You have received a money pouch containing 10, 000 gold coins.]
"Follow me to the other island." Adrian stated as he led them to the first floating island of Beta.
Adrian led them to another island, and he received reports from Ark that the angels have retreated. Since the angels are already gone, he can easily fulfill the request of the third rank summoner Ochia.
