Soon, Leo's laughter was interrupted by Madam Flores' loud voice outside their room. He imdiately ignored Iasiah and the others, as he turned his attention to look at the center of the auction venue once again.
"Ladies and gentlen, it's ti to auction the Night Elf race. The sa as the Ice Elf race, they would also be auctioned as a whole group with the starting bid of 10,000 gold coins!" Madam Flores said with a smile on her face, she motioned her hand and exclaid, "You may all begin!"
"100,000!"
"200,000!"
"300,000!"
"..."
Unlike the Ice Elf race, the situation of the Night Elf race imdiately beca intense.
What's even more surprising is, all the VIP rooms actually decided to participate in the bidding war.
One of the simple reasons is because the group of Night Elves was split equally, specifically five male Night Elves and five female Night Elves. This ans that they would not only be able to increase the strength of their forces, but at the sa ti, they could also satisfy their carnal needs.
But of course, that isn't really the main reason for that. After all, people don't co to auction to look for 'fun' and 'enjoynt', but mostly because they are looking for ways to increase their strength and power, either as an individual or as a group.
The main and exact reason why the Night Elf race was considered as very popular right now was due to the fact that they are the descendants of the Moon Elf race, specifically one of the High Elf race in the Celestial World, and most importantly it's where the Moon Elf God ca from as well, the God that almost all the Elf race in the Celestial World believes.
If the Naughty Elves organization believes in the Sun Elf God, naturally those that aren't mbers of the Naughty Elves organization believe in another God as well, and that God is exactly the Moon Elf God.
Aside from that reason, the Night Elf race is actually considered a very powerful Elf race compared to the Ice Elf race.
The high affinity of the Night Elf race to both Light and Dark Elent ans that they can cast Healing spells to recover their injuries during a fight and at the sa ti use powerful Dark Elent Magic spells, which is normally used to cause the opponents to suffer from nightmares, controlling one's shadow, hiding in the darkness, or summoning being made entirely out of darkness to help them in a fight.
Honestly, the Dark Elent is actually considered as one of the most dangerous and deadly Elent Mana in the Celestial World. People who are capable of using them are mostly individuals that are feared upon by a lot of people due to the fact that their capability is perfectly suited for assassination.
Think about it, the majority of the people living in the Celestial World would sleep during the night. But the nightti is exactly the perfect ti for the people that can use Dark Elent to play around. No one would want to have a sleepless night, right?
Although one could easily solve this problem by simply sleeping in the morning instead. But who would be stupid enough to choose such a thing considering that almost all the people in the Celestial World are active during the day?
They'd certainly be missing a lot of things if they start sleeping during the day instead of nightti. Not to ntion, even if they are awake during the night, they would still be at a disadvantage against people that can use the Dark Elent.
Moreover, because of such threats, they'd certainly be unable to do anything productive during the night as well, rendering all of their effort of staying up in the entire night ultimately useless.
"500,000!"
"550,000!"
"600,000!"
"..."
Eventually, the bid had even surpassed the winning bid for the Ice Elf race and was still slowly rising higher and higher.
anwhile, inside the room, Leo is now facing a huge problem. After learning about the secret of the Fiendish Blizzard Kingdom from Iasiah, he now needs to win the Night Elf race in order for him to complete the needed requirent of having the special twins.
But unfortunately, the price of the Night Elf race right now is sothing that he considered as not worth it anymore. In fact, if he really decided to win the bid for the Night Elf race, his plan of earning back what they have spent in the Erald Tree Kingdom before leaving would be impossible. After all, in such a case, he'd be spending nearly two million gold coins in the Erald Tree Kingdom, which logically speaking, can't be earned back in just a matter of two or so of months. The only way for him to earn such amount of money back is by staying longer in the Erald Tree Kingdom. Such a choice though would definitely cause him a lot of trouble.
"800,000!"
"820,000!"
"850,000!"
"..."
The price of the Night Elf race was finally slowing down, implying that it is now slowly reaching its final value.
Leo suddenly turned to look at Iasiah as he said, "Swore an oath in the na of Mana that what you have said to about the secret of the Fiendish Blizzard Kingdom is not a lie. Only through that would I be able to believe that your words are true!"
Hearing Leo's words, Iasiah didn't bother wasting any ti as he quickly swore an oath, "I swear an oath in the na of Mana that everything I've said about the secret of the Fiendish Blizzard Kingdom is true and not a lie. If it's a lie, I permit the Mana of the Celestial World to kill and destroy my soul!"
A blue-colored light similar to those found in the Mana stone quickly covered Iasiah's body.
While Iasiah was swearing an oath, the situation in the venue has finally reached the final value of the Night Elf race, specifically an astronomical value of 950,000 gold coins.
Seeing that Iasiah didn't die after swearing an oath, Leo grit his teeth as he finally decided to win the bidding for the Night Elf race.
"950,000 gold coins, going once, going twic-,"
"1,000,000!"
The auction venue imdiately erupted into loud noises after hearing from the room where Mister Loki is at the amount of his bid.
"Is he crazy or sothing?!"
"Adding the amount of money he had spent for the eight pieces of Evergreen Seed and the Ice Elves, he had spent 1,624,000 gold coins in total!"
"This is no longer a question of how rich the Mischievous Lion Guild is, but rather how many millions of gold coins they have!"
"Damn, now I can't help wanting to join the Mischievous Lion Guild,"
"I, on the other hand, had already decided to join them! Who's coming with ?"
"..."
The VIPs of the Elves Secret organization were also stunned by Mister Loki's bid, especially Orcborg and the person who had bid the 950,000 gold coins.
It was completely out of Orcborg's expectations that Mister Loki is actually this wealthy. He can't help assuming that the reason why Mister Loki decided to reject his proposition might just be because he doesn't lack any money at all. Maybe the only reason why Mister Loki was interested in his proposal was because of the ntion of owning him a favor. When this auction is over, he'd definitely set so ti to visit their base to build up so relationship with Mister Loki. A man like him is definitely worth befriending and becoming an ally.
On the other hand, inside one of the VIP rooms, the Handso Elf who bid the 950,000 gold coins can't help himself from heaving a sigh of relief.
Contrary to Orcborg's reaction when Mister Loki had outbid him, the Handso Elf instead felt really thankful.
Inside the mind of the Handso Elf, he realized that if not for Mister Loki, he would have definitely lost the chance to bid for the 9th to 1st main auction items for this auction. Honestly, the only reason why he had bid the 950,000 gold coins was because of a sudden impulse due to his greed for power. To be more precise, the thought that he'd have the power to deter his opponents once he got the Night Elf race in his hand had blinded him. But after blurting out the value of 950,000, he quickly began regretting his action. Such an amount of money could get him a lot of things, and not to ntion, getting the Night Elf race is not yet a sure deterrence yet. After all, he still needs to invest a lot of money in order to make them powerful, which he can hardly afford after spending 950,000 gold coins just to buy them.
Unbeknownst to Orcborg and the Handso Elf though, at this very mont, Leo felt as if his heart is bleeding painfully from spending an astronomical value of 1,000,000 gold coins. He now realized that the total amount of money he had spent for this auction is actually more than a fourth of all of his money. If only there was no possibility of getting himself two Galaxy level Magic spells and a 1st Constellation level Magic spell by spending this amount of money, then he would have certainly not bothered buying the Night Elf race, even if Iasiah beg him with his life.
"1,000,000 gold coins, going once, going twice, sold!" Madam Flores banged the hamr as she turned to look at the room where Mister Loki was at.
Hearing the banging of the hamr, Leo silently muttered to himself, "I really hope that all of this is worth it in the end,"
