Chapter 496: Can you continue to raise prices?
"Are you talking about me?" Rakka smiled disdainfully: "Of course I don’t want to die, but if you want to die, I can kill you as easily as killing a dog."
Crack! Crack!
Barosik angrily clenched his fists until they turned white. His eyes seemed to want to cut Rakka into a million pieces. No, he wanted to torture Rakka and make him regret confronting him.
"Barosik." Medos’s voice suddenly rang out: "Calm down; you are not that person’s opponent right now."
Medos actually didn’t know that the person sitting in the VIP seat was Rakka. However, he thought that person was probably a high-ranking noble.
Barosik’s situation was not much different from before; it’s just that he has more gold coins now.
Barosik is currently just a loner, without any status or anyone of noble status that he can rely on.
If he were to confront a high-ranking noble now, he probably wouldn’t die, but he would be in a lot of trouble.
It was so troublesome that it made Medos feel tired.
Medos currently just wanted to let Barosik develop quietly, as he didn’t want anyone to pay attention to Barosik.
Medos had experience accompanying Alec. He thought that if Alec shined brightly, he would attract everyone’s attention, including nobles and powerful people who would love his talent.
Thus, he will be able to find someone to protect him and even help him on the path to becoming a great existence.
But Medos was wrong. The brighter Alec shines, the more enemies he has. Enemies came to Alec continuously, and in the end, Alec was killed by a normal person.
That’s right, Lathel is a normal person. An ordinary person, without even the will of the world or the energy of destiny to protect him, was able to push Alec to the brink of death.
He even killed Alec’s will to resist, causing Alec to die without putting up any resistance.
That’s why he doesn’t want to let Barosik go down the wrong path.
"But... I can’t be patient anymore." Barosik angrily muttered: "I don’t want anyone to threaten me."
Medos: "..."
He felt like Barosik was stupid—even more stupid than Alec.
"Barosik, I’ll say it again. If you continue to act according to your feelings, then I will immediately leave. I do not accept a student who does not listen to the teacher’s instructions."
Barosik clenched his teeth so hard that he wanted to chew them, but in the end, he had to endure and sit down.
"Huh! You are both poor and cowardly, it seems... You are worse than a dog." Rakka said contemptuously.
Barosik was angry; he clutched his thighs with both hands, gritted his teeth, and muttered: "Bastard... one day, I will kill you and grind your bones into ash."
"Okay..." Miconia now spoke up, breaking the tense atmosphere: "The mysterious guest offered 400,000 gold coins; is there anyone with a higher bid?"
Barosik took a deep breath, tried to calm down, then called out a price: "410,000 gold coins."
Even though the amount of money was very high, the attraction of that sword was too great. After all, inside that sword is the will of a saint-level master. There is even an energy source inside that, when activated, can be that master’s most powerful move.
Even with gold coins, it cannot be measured; that’s why he must have that sword.
"This is also the time to let her know that... even if I don’t have any support, I can still earn a lot of gold coins."
"I can even show her that I have a very special ability."
Medos: "..."
In fact, Medos didn’t think that much; he just wanted Barosik to calm down a bit. After all, this place is an auction centre, so there will definitely be masters protecting this place.
If Barosik causes trouble, he’s afraid... even if he doesn’t die, he will be seriously injured.
That’s also the reason why Medos doesn’t want to let Barosik cause trouble here. But he also didn’t think about what Barosik just said.
Medos was too lazy to explain, so he decided to stay silent.
A female employee walked up to Barosik, took the ID card from his hand, and checked it carefully.
A moment later, the female employee respectfully returned the ID card to Barosik, looked towards Miconia, and nodded slightly.
Miconia saw the female employee’s actions and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sorry, I’m just following the auction centre’s rules." Miconia said with a guilty tone.
"Don’t worry." Barosik smiled and replied: "I understand the rules here; I don’t feel uncomfortable."
"So... Do I have the right to continue participating in the auction?"
"Of course." Miconia smiled and said: "The other customer offered 600,000 gold coins; is there anyone else offering a higher price?"
"700,000!" Rakka spoke up again.
Today, he received 2 million gold coins from Lathel, but he still had more than 1 million gold coins left from before. Therefore, he can comfortably offer a higher price without worrying about lacking gold coins.
Rakka also did not believe that Barosik had more gold coins than him. If Barosik had more gold coins than him, Barosik would have freely increased the price.
Just as Rakka thought, Barosik did not have enough gold coins to continue increasing the price.
He frowned, thought of something, and said: "I don’t have that many gold coins right now; however, can I exchange items for gold coins?"
Hearing that, Miconia frowned and said: "Of course, I don’t accept items priced below 10,000 gold coins."
"Hahahaha... I will definitely not let you down." Barosik laughed loudly, then took out a stone from his pocket, startling Miconia.
The rock is as small as a tennis ball, but it radiates blinding light like a miniature sun.
"How much does this stone... cost?"
Miconia signalled a female employee to move, put the stone in a tray, and then brought it in front of her.
She looked at the stone and immediately realised that this was a light element stone; its quality was quite high, and it is probably rank D.
Miconia observed the stone for a long time, then smiled and said: "Rank D light element stone, quite large, very pure, worth the equivalent of 2 million gold coins."
"Hahahaha... well, you..." Barosik looked at Rakka with eyes filled with contempt: "I have 2,700,000 gold coins. Kid, can you keep raising the price?"
