"The Luminous Wand is indeed a unique item but I shall give it up to Zen," Krista Dragoon said softly.
The crowd had their jaws wide open when they realized that the princess of this kingdom had stopped bidding against Zen.
"Unbelievable, even Princess Krista Dragoon is unwilling to bid against Zen."
"Just what is his background?"
"Who knows? If I knew, I wouldn't be sitting here in confusion."
The crowd continued to whisper as they tried to figure out Zen's background to be this arrogant.
With a Princess also backing off, their suspicion only grew stronger that Zen is more powerful than the Jade Kingdom.
anwhile, Zen was also surprised that Krista Dragoon backed off. 'Is my acting this good to be able to fool her as well?'
Zen ponders inwardly since he may be confident in his acting but he doubts he could fool everyone.
Evie was the pri example since she knew that he did not have any supporters behind him.
"Then I shall thank Princess Krista Dragoon for letting have the Luminous Wand," Zen bowed slightly to show his respect.
Since she didn't ss with him and even acted humble, Zen would return the favor and give her so courtesy.
"Hmph, what made you think you got the item already? Did you forget that I'm still bidding for it?" Daphne Callia shouted when she saw harmony between Krista and Zen.
She got roasted and disrespected by Zen but Krista received the polar opposite response. With her competitive and petty attitude, she was not going to swallow this humiliation down.
Zen rolled his eyes at her behavior. "This Daphne really needs to be taught a lesson and learn so etiquette."
"I think you need to learn it as well."
Both Evie and Angela said simultaneously when they heard Zen's remark on Daphne Callia.
In their mind, they believed Zen is the one that needs help and not Daphne Callia.
Zen twitched his lip slightly when he heard the two won teasing him. Coughing softly, Zen decided to be a gentleman and not argue with them.
Evie and Angela smirked at his response before giggling.
"Hey, are you mute? Why aren't you responding to ?" Daphne Callia's voice broke the atmosphere as she continued to provoke Zen.
Shaking his head, Zen wondered if he should punish her or not.
"Why would I be responding when the current highest bidder is ?" Zen said aloud.
"Y-You hmph, I bid 2 million and 500 thousand spirit stones. My family has nothing besides money." Daphne Callia retorted swiftly.
Lady Seraphine was excited to see the heated mont between them. 'Hehe, fight more and bid more money. This lady is going to rake in the big fish.'
Lady Seraphine is smiling brightly to know the wand is being bid at such a high price. The wand is nothing special besides the appearance and its background.
Thus, it was a miracle to even auction more than a million spirit stones. A magic wand is extrely common and there were only a few unique ones that can enhance the power of a spell.
"Sigh, since you really want the wand then so be it. You can have it, little missy." Zen shrugged his shoulders as he gave up the bidding.
Lady Seraphine was dumbstruck and cried inwardly. 'Why are you stopping the bid? My commission noo, I can see it flying away.'
It wasn't just Lady Seraphine being shocked, but everyone else in the auction was in disbelief as well.
He has offended many people for this wand yet he gave up so easily because of a young miss provocation.
"Are you toying with ?" Daphne Callia shouted aloud as she believed Zen was going easy on her and treated her like a little girl.
"Think whatever you want. I no longer have an interest in the wand that has no special function besides the appearance and amazing backstory." Zen waved his hand as he yawned a bit.
Daphne Callia gritted her teeth in anger. "W-What do you an by no special function? This wand is used by the late prominent mage, Luca and it's the strongest wand in this world."
(In case you forgot who Luca is, he is known as the greatest mage of all tis. ntioned by Sara in the early chapters.)
Zen started smiling when Daphne Callia asked him about the special function.
"Do you really want to know my aning?" Zen asked cheekily.
Clenching her fist, Daphne Callia took a few monts before nodding her head.
"Tell or I won't forgive you." Daphne Callia threatened like a little girl would do.
"I'll tell you if you give my shoulder a massage," Zen replied before laughing aloud as he couldn't believe that she actually fell for this kind of trick.
Daphne Callia's face beca red and had an expression mixed with anger, embarrassnt, and humiliation.
"You are no gentleman. You're a scoundrel, a shaless scoundrel who bullied won." Daphne Callia said with teary eyes.
"Hey, stop crying already because I'm just teasing you," Zen said with a serious face.
Daphne Callia was suspicious as she glared at him fiercely and sure enough, Zen couldn't keep up with his act as he started laughing again.
"I-I hate you," Daphne Callia said as she sat down on her chair with a sullen mood.
"I know you hate but good luck paying 2 million and 500 thousand spirit stones. Lady Seraphine, you should thank for helping you get such a high commission." Zen winked at her slowly before returning to his seat.
Lady Seraphine smiled bitterly at this outco. 'Who would have thought one wand can cause such a commotion?'
"Cough, since no one else is bidding any longer, Daphne Callia has used 2 million and 500 thousand spirit stones to obtain this Luminous Wand. Congratulations to the young miss as this marks the end of the first half of our auction." Lady Seraphine announced loudly and continued.
"We will begin the second half of the auction in another 30 minutes so for those who have won their bidding. Please go to the backstage to pay and retrieve your item." Afterward, Lady Seraphine bowed slightly and left the stage.
