The New World Auction was one of the most important events for many, and the organizers knew that it had to be top notch.
The gates on the stage opened, and two girls holding massive chains stepped inside. Behind them slowly walked a large beast with red skin, an eerie mouth, and a vicious stare.
"Is that a riding animal?"
"Yes, and it's pretty good. This beast looks strong, I like that kind of thing." Ern said.
"This is the second item in our auction, the Bloodhunter!" The auctioneer exclaid, "This beast looked wild, but Bloodhunters are known for always submitting if they think you deserve it. It's the privilege of the strong!"
"The starting price is 10,000 Void Souls, the minimum step is 500 Void Souls!"
"Eleven thousand!"
"Twelve thousand!"
"Fifteen thousand!"
Instantly, several people nad a large amount. Bloodhunters were rare and unique beasts. They could establish a blood bond with their host, and it increased the power and sensitivity of both. Bloodhunters could easily defeat most creatures on the sa Chronicle without getting hurt.
"Thirty thousand." A quiet voice ca from the second floor. It was a demon with purple skin and two horns.
The auctioneer did a countdown and declared, "Sold!"
He instructed the girls to take the Bloodhunter back to the enclosure so the new owner could pick up the beast later.
"Wait." Demon said and jumped off the balcony onto the stage.
"I'm sorry, but you're interrupting the auction..." The auctioneer said uncertainly.
"It won't take long." The Demon looked at the girls, "Step aside if you don't want to die."
The girls flinched in fear and ran as far away as they could.
"These chains hold back your power, it's not fair." The Demon uttered and destroyed the shackles with a sharp movent of his hand.
"What are you doing...?!" The auctioneer muttered and stepped aside. He knew how fearso the Bloodhunters were when they were furious.
The guests were alard, but the Demons were smiling on the other hand. They knew what the Purple Demon was going to do.
"Huh, he decided not to wait. He's pretty impatient." Ern pronounced with interest as he watched what was happening.
The Bloodhunter roared and pounced on the Demon. The beast was angry that it had been chained up and deprived of its freedom.
The Demon did not move, he waited until the claws of the Bloodhunter approached him and grabbed the beast's paws. The Demon's grip was powerful, and getting out of it was even harder than the shackles.
"AAARRRRRR!" Bloodhunter tried to bite Demon's head off, but the beast's fangs could not reach it. The beast's saliva got on Demon's face, but it didn't embarrass him.
"Quiet, don't make look stupid." Demon said calmly and squeezed the beast's paws harder. His aura gradually grew, and everyone felt the ground begin to shake, and the chandeliers sway.
"Damn, it's just the pressure coming from his aura. How strong is he?" Soone said.
"Ern, is he on the edge of Third Chronicle?" Wain asked.
"Yeah, it's a creepy power, isn't it?" Ern smiled, "He decided not to wait and ta the Bloodhunter right away."
"Hmm? Doesn't that take ti?"
"Just watch. It's different from what tars usually do. He'll do it quickly and beautifully."
Bloodhunter was shocked by the Purple Demon's layer, but the beast was not about to back down. The Bloodhunter jumped up and struck the Demon with his tail. The Demon did not dodge or block this attack, and the tail left a red mark on his shoulder.
"Not bad, but it's not enough. Let show you what power is!" The Demon uttered and kicked the Bloodhunter aside.
The beast quickly regained his balance, but the Demon was already in front of him. He delivered a powerful, straight punch that was impossible to dodge. The Bloodhunter put his paws out in front of him to defend himself, but the Demon stopped at the last mont.
Whooooooosh.
His blow created a powerful wind flow as if in a hurricane. The Bloodhunter could barely stay on his feet.
"That's enough." The Demon said calmly and turned around, "Co on, don't keep waiting."
Bloodhunter shook his head and followed Daemon, they hopped onto the balcony together.
"This is what you were talking about, right?"
"Yes," Bloodhunter realized that Demon was much stronger. The beast had no choice but to obey."
"Though it was unexpected, the second lot was successfully sold!" The auctioneer stated and walked to the center of the stage, "Thank you for such a fascinating show, but I will ask no one else to interrupt the auction. Bring out lot three!"
A girl ca forward with a purple, oddly shaped helt in her hands.
The auctioneer struck the staff, and a large information window appeared.
[Dark Thorn Helt (Ascendant Rating, Second Chronicle)
This helt was long ago created by an ingenious smith from the soul of a horrible monster that terrorized the people and held several villages in fear.
*All stats 100
*Damage from attacks with the attribute of darkness and fire increased by 50%
*Created skill - 'Falling Spike'
- Falling Spike
Summon a huge thorn that will fall on your enemies and create an explosion of purple fla].
"The starting price is 5,000 Void Souls! The minimum step is 200 Void Souls!"
"Ern, you're a blacksmith. In your opinion, is this a quality helt?" Wain asked.
"Yes, but they ask too much for it. They gave thirty thousand for the Bloodhunter, but it is a powerful and unique beast that will be a loyal ally. The third lot is just a pretty good helt, nothing worth the effort."
The bidding went on for a long ti until soone bought the Dark Thorn Helt for twelve thousand Void Souls.
Wain wasn't going to bid. He was only interested in the Blood Crystals and the special alchemist equipnt he promised to get for Edena and Lui Bu.
"I hope no one was disappointed with the previous lots. There are many more interesting things to co!"
