Chapter 576 - Agent E (1)
"A girl?" The girl in a dark brown suit covered her mouth in surprise.
Elysia tried to hide her long hair inside the hat, but her right arm hurt. She then just stared at the girl on the floor with so grievances.
'I crave violence! Peace was never an option.' Elena felt very angry because of the presumptuous girl. She could have punished the girl right away, but not without Ely's permission.
'Please calm down, Sister Elena. We'll have an imdiate enemy if that's the case. I doubt the suspicious Earth God will help us if that happens.' Elysia still chose the path of peace despite what she had just been through.
Elena then gave Elysia a few plausible reasons to give the perpetrator a deterrent effect with a disguised punishnt. Still, Elysia didn't think that revenge was appropriate now and in this place.
"I heard you are going to the auction. Can you tell where it will be?" Elysia ended up asking about the limit of politeness after arguing a bit with Elena.
"Ah-uh, it was held in this hotel's underground hall." The girl in a dark brown suit answered reflexively.
"Thank you." Elysia then turned around and walked away while holding her aching arm. She could only heal it slowly, considering her limited EP.
"Un, you're welco... Eh, wait a minute, young miss! Please forgive my bodyguard's rude treatnt. She just doesn't know and is wary. If that's possible, would you like to go to the auction with us?" The girl in a dark brown suit imdiately opened her mouth to explain the current situation before it was too late.
However, just as she was about to chase after the mysterious girl, she bumped into an invisible wall.
"Auu... What is this? A barrier wall?" The girl in a dark brown suit held her forehead and used her other hand to grope the invisible wall in front of her.
"No, thanks for your offer. You're there to buy things, while I'm there to sell items. We're not the sa." Elysia stopped her steps for a mont and then continued again. She escaped from the scene and used the elevator for workers after hiding her long hair in her hat.
In the corridor left only two stunned girls. A few monts later, the girl in a dark brown suit looked at the girl next to her with a nervous smile. "Looks like we're in the wrong here, Mio. I accidentally dropped this. She was just sincerely trying to return our room access card, but we hurt her instead."
"Please forgive , milady. The only one to bla is and my hasty decision. I am ready to accept any punishnt." Mio gave a bow of apology.
"No, Mio. You are under my responsibility, so I am also half guilty. You were only doing your job to protect from potential harm. Let's apologize properly to her the next ti we et." The girl in a dark brown suit shook her head. After saying that, she picked up the blue card on the floor.
"Understood." Mio raised her head and tried to feel the invisible wall. However, it wasn't there anymore. "That girl seems to be soone from a mysterious clan or hidden sect, milady. She just disguised herself and got lost on her way to the auction."
"Mm, she looks so young, powerful, and beautiful too. She must have a background that we could never guess. The invisible barrier wall earlier was casted by her, right? In your opinion, how strong is her real power?" The girl in a dark brown suit tried to touch the invisible wall again, but it wasn't there anymore.
"It's hard to guess because I can't detect her real strength. However, if we calculate the overall extent to which we ignore her physical strength, I believe she is stronger than , milady." Mio speculated based on the events just now.
"Then we'll be in big trouble if she returns ho with a grudge against us... Let's hurry to the auction now. I hope we can et her again there." After saying that, the girl in a dark brown suit ran towards the elevator and her bodyguard followed suit.
They headed straight for the first floor before entering the underground hall.
anwhile, Elysia had arrived at a hall that looked lavishly decorated and majestic. It was as if the place was purposely prepared to welco hundreds of distinguished guests from the highest caste in society.
However, she only glanced inside using her advanced perception, not going in there. Even so, she could confirm there would be an auction soon.
'Ely, where are you going? Can you find the auction dealer through the back lane?' Elena asked curiously and anxiously. She felt insecure because Elysia got so strange looks from the security and the surrounding people.
'And that's, of course. The organizing team and so people in charge of the event must be there. We just need to find the right one and bingo. We will win a lot of money.' Elysia went straight to the back area of ??the hall without hesitation, as if she did have an interest there.
'But, how?' Elena failed to understand Elysia's current plan.
'We can scan anyone's status screen, right? Let's try our luck by finding the strongest or the foremost by asking.' Elysia chuckled in her mind.
At that mont, two big, burly people clad in all black and fully ard imdiately confronted Elysia.
"Halt, only authorized persons may enter."
"What is an electrician like you doing here, in the first place? Your workplace is upstairs."
"My apologies, kind sir. But, I ca to et the organizer of the event or the person in charge of the auction held here. I'm not an electrician either, but soone from the east ca to offer auction objects. I'm sure people will be interested in my offer." Elysia disguised her voice and stroked her chin like an old sage.
The two guards dressed in all black looked at each other. They weighed their decision because this skinny man didn't look dangerous, but their instincts scread not to be reckless. A hidden expert in disguise?
"You tell this to Mr. Yamamoto." One of the guards ordered his companion. He then stood in front of the strange man. "Please wait a mont. We cannot confirm and guarantee your request without the proper authorities."
"Good, I like people who are polite." Elysia nodded and clasped her hands behind her back.
'Ely, those two guards are above level fifty! This auction put two experts of this class only as gatekeepers? I have another view of humans on Earth now. It seems, we used to only live in a peaceful side of world without knowing that many powerful experts were present around us.' Elena felt sowhat surprised.
'Mm... We also t a God a while ago, right? Let's assu so human chosen ones also have superpowers like those in the movies.' Elysia was not so surprised anymore because she had predicted this so ti ago.
A few monts later, an old man dressed in his traditional black uniform ca out with the sa guard as the one who entered a while ago.
"Hm, this isn't the first ti I've t soone like you. Anyway, welco to this auction. Can you prove your claim before we make a bargain?" The old man in a traditional black uniform looked around and asked.
"Sure, you can check this as a sample." Elysia flicked a light blue crystal fragnt at the old man.
The old man caught it and imdiately checked it out. There was no wind and no rain, but lightning seed to strike him as he realized the actual value of the piece in his hand. "This, this, where-"
Elysia covered the old man's mouth with her convenient magic and whispered. "Ssh, this isn't a place for discussion. If that takes you by surprise, I don't know what will happen next. I'm afraid you could have a heart attack, kind sir."
"Bwah, this mouth does go out of control sotis. Ahem, please co in, honored guest." The old man slapped his mouth, opened the gate, and invited the guest dressed as an electrician.
"Very well..." Elysia went inside, and the old man followed. The gate closed, leaving only two confused guards.
"Please- Please have a seat." The old man sat on a bench behind the table. He invited the distinguished guest to sit in front of him.
After that, he introduced himself politely. "I'm in charge of Yamamoto's seasonal event, Yamamoto Tetsui. Nice to et you. Can I know who I'm talking to?"
"The pleasure is mine, Mr. Yamamoto Tetsui. You can call with Agent E, a traveler who occasionally visits certain places. I can see this auction is promising, and because of that I ca here to auction off so items I found from my long journey." Elysia introduced herself eloquently like an old gentleman. She then put so boxes on the table.
Yamamoto Tetsui was very surprised because these boxes seed to be pulled out of the clothes. All of this could be hidden in there?
"These are six elental stones that will react depending on the affinity of the wielder. Then this one is the floating crystal that can make the wielder float one to two ters in the air. It's like flying for so ti. And this one--" Elysia introduced the things with the naming that she nad at that very mont.
The old man certainly didn't believe it right away, but he beca convinced entirely after testing them himself. Fortunately, there was no one other than the two of them in the room.. Otherwise, he would be very embarrassed because he looked like a gleeful brat rather than a revered master.
