Chapter 64: C64 Dark Coalition!

"Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you Draupnir."

Rose paused for a while and let the crowd enjoy the sight of the Draupnir.

"Now, I hope everyone's no longer doubting the Ancient Site. Based on our research, Draupnir belongs to the Norse Gods of the past era. It is owned by the wife of the most powerful God in that pantheon, Odin."

"If you are wondering if they did exist for real, the answer is this," Rose said as she pointed at the Draupnir.

"Or perhaps, they are simply humans that were immensely powerful, but as to the truth, I can't assure you."

*Clap clap*

"The auction for the slots did not have a base price. The winner will get ten slots. Then, the second will get five. The third will get three slots and the fourth will get two."

"Aside from that, the Warbringer Auction house will also accompany you."

…

"Is it for real?" One of the men from the crowd exclaimed with gleaming eyes.

"Nah, I doubt it," a man whispered.

"One of the men In the VIP room has the same aura as the Draupnir."

Some were doubting the Ancient Site of the Warbringer Auction House but they dare not complain because they knew that the auction house is not a small power.

"Could it be that they're faking it?"

"Maybe, well, let's see what us the reaction of the military and the people of the King's Manor."

"Are you going to bid?"

If not for Allen's aura a while ago, there wouldn't be such discussions. But he is not to be blamed because he, too, is oblivious of it.

"Of course. Although I knew I won't be winning, it's worth trying."

"Yeah, you're right. Then, how about we add our Credits and aim for the fourth?"

"Great, I'm in!"

…

"Bidding must at least be 1,000C higher than the last. The bidding starts…"

"NOW!" Rose yelled.

And immediately, the crowd went wild as they started bidding.

"10,000C!"

"11,000C!"

…

"25,000C!"

"30,000C!"

The bidding instantly rose to 30,000C. A bit more and Allen would no longer be able to join. His available money is only more or less 40,000C.

But on second thought, even if he had 40,000C more, he would not be able to win. The others at the VIP rooms are yet to bid. And, surely, once they bid, it would be rather an astronomical amount of Credits.

But of course, Allen still in hopes that he would get the third set of slots or perhaps the fourth.

"40,000C!"

With that, the crowd was silenced because the VIPs had joined the bidding.

Followed by Allen, Draven did the honor to bid for the King's Manor.

"50,000C!" Draven said with a loud and clear voice.

"80,000C!" The military would of course, not let the others bid as they please. It was General Sean who bid, which unintentionally put some pressure on Draven who was at the ranks of a captain.

"100,000C!" A man within the crowd bid, which silenced the hall. The man's face was covered with a hood and he has an auspicious aura.

"What are you, bastards, doing here?" General Sean yelled as he heard the voice.

Unbeknownst to everyone, aside from the military, the King's Manor, and the Warbringer Auction House, there is another faction that was inside.

Moreover, they come in unnoticed despite wearing set clothing that was entirely different from the others. If the man did not bid, no one would probably notice them 'till the end of the auction.

"Hehe, General Sean, rest assured, we simply wanted the slots," the man answered with a hoarse voice.

"As if everyone believes that. You, people from the Dark Coalition, always cause destruction" General Brenden retorted.

The Dark Coalition is a silent and unsociable organization. Their group is mostly assassins or anyone else that are like-minded as them.

If Allen did not arrive in this era, the Plague River Faction would surely be part of the Dark Coalition after a few more years.

Meanwhile, as the crowd was having a small quarrel, the Warbringer Auction house was also devising a counterattack in case there was chaos in this place.

"Master Cody," Madame Lilith called to Master Cody.

Master Cody is the one who created the chest using his sealing ability. He could seal almost anything below the heavens on the premise that he is stronger than them or was on par with them.

"Madame Lilith, don't worry about it. I will do my best. Just prepare to get all the items away from the grasp of those from the Dark Coalition."

Madame Lilith nodded in response.

Madame Lilith and Master Cody were not the only generals that are in the Auction House. There were others who were stealthily hidden inside and were prepared to strike at a moment's notice.

"Are you not going to bid?" The man from the dark coalition. Then, he stared at Rose while licking his lips.

"1...100,000C, are there more bids?" Rose asked the crowd while stuttering. She could tell that the glares she was receiving from the dark coalition contained malicious intent.

"Hehe," the man laughed.

"150,000C!" A voice resonated from the VIP room of the King's Manor. But this time, it was not Draven who bid. Instead, it was Elion.

"Sly Shadow, it seems that you like to bully ladies, huh? How rude," Elion added after he finished bidding.

"None of your business, birdie." Sly Shadow, the one who bid 100,000C earlier, replied.

It was not a secret that Elion's ability is his sturdy pair of white wings. He could summon them and use them either to fly or to fight.

Each of his feathers is sturdy as shields and sharp as swords. At the same time, they are also light enough for the wind to carry.

"200,000C!" General Hamlet bid.

In the beginning, the three generals did not intend to win the first prize. But right now, it does not matter as long as the dark coalition did not get the first set of slots.

Meanwhile, Allen relaxed because it does matter who won among the three groups. It is guaranteed that he could get the fourth set of slots, which would give him two slots.

The only problem that he has not is who to go with. It would be a waste if he did not use all the slots.

Thomas and Drew are out of the question. They would simply be a burden. The best way for them to help Allen was to strengthen themselves, pray, and recruit more believers.

But, this is a problem for later.

"250,000C!" Elion bid.

"300,000C!" This time it was the military who bid while Sly Shadow only stayed silent.

Meanwhile, Elion could only sigh. It didn't matter much if he did not manage to win the first set of slots. What matters most is that the Dark Coalition did not manage to get the first set either.

"300,000C! Going once! Twice! Thrice!"

"Sold!" Rose declared. But it was evident that her mood is no longer the same during the start of the auction.

"Allen, congratulations on getting the fourth set," Scarlet said.

Then, she opened the transaction section of her watch. And, when Allen saw it, he understood.

He then transferred 40,000C to her to complete the transaction.

"You now have two slots to the exploration of the Asgardian Realm," Scarlet said after the transaction was finished. Then, she asked, "But who will you bring?"

"If you want, I could accompany you," she added coquettishly while blinking her eyes.

But Allen ignored her and patted Stripes' head to wake the sleeping General Ranked beast.

His actions made Scarlet swallow a mouthful of saliva. She was rather confident that Allen would not hurt her as long as she did not cross the line.

But regarding Stripes, she could not guarantee. In her mind, a beast is a beast, whether it was tamed or not.

She, then, took out a token and gave it to Allen.

"Come back here two days from now," Scarlet briefly said.

"Wait here. I'm going to send someone to give you the token as proof that you have two slots.." She added before she left.
