Millennium Tension

After talking a lot about music performances on stage through their minds, Aizen noticed the two people he had met at the entrance to the city earlier were seated in the normal audience seats in the main hall.

'Axel, Ana... Do you still remember the two troublemakers this afternoon at the city entrance?'

'Ah! A silly person who claims to be a famous young master but his guts are shaken!'

'Um, I still remember. What's the matter with them, Master Aizen?'

The two girls certainly still remember these two idiots. However, they did not know why Aizen asked like that.

'They are there. Isn't the person claiming to be the young master of status? Why is he sitting in a normal audience seat?'

Ana and Axel look at the mental direction Aizen is pointing at.

'If the other one must be because he is poor or being frugal in disguise, similar to his clothing style.'

'Then, for the person claiming to be the young master might be saving money for the item he is going to bid?

Ana gives her comments which are complemented by Axel, while Aizen now gets other ideas and thoughts.

'Hehe... Is that so? If that's the case, I need to confirm something first.' Aizen smiled wickedly behind his half-face mask.

Ana and Axel who seemed to be able to see his evil smile were also interested in what he was going to do.

"Miss Zi Mei, can you give us a list of items to be auctioned tonight?"

"Eh? Sure, this is our list of auction items tonight." Zi Mei was a little surprised and immediately came out of her reverie. She takes out a scroll from her storage ring before giving it to Aizen.

Unfortunately, it was Axel who was closer to her who received it.

"Hmm... Let's see. The Citrine Dewdrop Ring... The Serpentine Riddle Necklace... The Velvet Blessing..." Aizen read what was written after Axel opened the scroll and made the three of them see the contents together.

"Miss Zi Mei, is 'The Citrine Dewdrop Ring' written at the top of this list an item that will be auctioned as the main item tonight?"

"Yes, 'The Citrine Dewdrop Ring' is the main item of our auction tonight." Zi Mei only answered formally and politely to hear only the man who spoke. She now considers the man to be the one who holds the decision and also the spokesman, while the two girls are his women.

"What is the use of the ring? What is the initial price and approximately what is the highest price possible?" Aizen asks a question that even Zi Mei becomes a little astonished. This distinguished guest is present without knowing what to auction at all!

"It is a ring that can heal even wounds that almost killed its user, the ring is highly sought after because of the opening of the hidden realm tomorrow. The opening price is twenty thousand low tier spirit coins, while the highest estimated price can be up to five hundred thousand low tier spirit coins." Zi Mei explained professionally, while Aizen only nodded slightly.

'Do you want to see the bidder war?'

'Oh! Of course. I want to see the face of a bankrupt person hehe...' Ana was excited because she understood what was meant by that.

'Fufu... Master Aizen, you are so cruel to sow discord at this time.' Axel actually knows deeper than what Ana understands.

'Hehe... What do you mean, Axel? I don't understand, I just want to share happiness.' Aizen did not want to acknowledge his rather twisted purpose.

'Huh? Bidder war is cruel? How come, Sister Axel?'

'You will know soon. I don't want to spoil the groove.'

"Emm... Then, I'll wait and see it later." Ana who does not get any clue only needs to wait until the time comes.

"Miss Zi Mei, can you also put this talisman as the main item to be auctioned tonight? I call it 'The Unmounted Bond', one-way teleportation talisman to another talisman that can only be used once before the two talismans are destroyed. This pair of talisman can be a life-saving treasure far more valuable than 'The Citrine Dewdrop Ring' which only heals the wearer."

Aizen takes out a pair of talismans with a complicated space law ensemble there. It was one of the experimental products that Axel used in the past to practice using space law to teleport.

Unfortunately, now that thing is useless and has only become trash for them, even Axel who made it unaware that she still has it if the three of them did not re-examine [Space Storage] thoroughly.

Zi Mei accepted the talisman with her trembling hands with a clear reason. In the world of cultivation, very few people can use space law to teleport.

This distinguished guest from Master Yin can easily take things out of nowhere, and he wants to auction off the talisman who can teleport the holder of one talisman to another holder.

One thing that can be explained at this time. This man is included in the very few people, and this talisman is also very valuable with very high selling prices. Because of its rarity, this talisman can be very valuable to save them from the mouth of death.

Perhaps a more severe bidder war will occur because many of the best young generations from various parts of the world are gathering here.

"Young, young master... Are you sure you are going to auction this?"

"Of course, the auction will start soon, you better hurry. You can tell Master Yin to ensure the authenticity of the talisman. Make it a pleasant surprise for them after the auction of 'The Citrine Dewdrop Ring'." Aizen answers casually as if it's not a big deal.

"All right, then I'll excuse myself." Zi Mei kept the talisman in her storage ring and walked out of the room in a rush to Master Yin's room.

Even with a high-level life-saving treasure called 'The Unmounted Bond', she has no thoughts of stealing it and running away. She knew very well her position and she couldn't think so further about it, and Aizen also knew very well that she would not dare to do so.

The three honored guests who were left in the VIP room returned to watch the musical performance which had entered the closing stage until the women who play zither finished her performance then excusing herself with a graceful bow.

The lights were turned on again to the stage in the main hall and a woman dressed in an attractive appearance similar to the one worn by Zi Mei was in the center of the stage.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we welcome you on the eve of the auction at The Twilight Amphitheater. Let me introduce myself, I'm Yan Li will be the auctioneer tonight..." The auctioneer continued the opening with a formal greeting.

*knock* *knock*

The door to their room was knocked smoothly before it was opened by Zi Mei who was supposed to have returned, but she was not alone, she came back with Master Yin.

"Master Aizen, I have checked the authenticity of the talisman that you will auction at our auction house and will serve as the main auction object for tonight's surprise event. I represent 'The Twilight Amphitheater' feeling honored for your trust." Master Yin confirmed and began to make small talk.

Aizen only nodded slightly to Master Yin who stood in front of his right.

Zi Mei who felt lost the role of talking returned to the sitting position on the sofa where she sat before. Master Yin looked at this maid of honor who looked presumptuous to sit on the couch with this honored guests looking with a stern look. While Zi Mei who was being stared at by Master Yin could only look back with a persecuted look.

The rules applied are for the maid of honor to return to their original positions after carrying out the tasks instructed by guests in the VIP room with a note of obeying the rules of the auction house.

So, she who was originally sitting there then has to go back to sit there.
