Chapter 104: Making Troubles (III)

"Stinky brat, you have pushed me far enough." Daemon Kaiso roared as his aura continued to increase.

With his aura increasing, Daemon Kaiso starts casting his magic spell with his wand.

Multiple holy arrows appeared on Daemon Kaiso's side as he prepared to have a showdown against Zen.

"Enough!" 

Lady Seraphine shouted aloud and it was clear that she was extremely displeased by the current situation.

Turning her body to look at Daemon Kaiso, Lady Seraphine said coldly, "Patriarch Daemon Kaiso, I hope you remember this is an auction house from the Scarlet family. If you wished to fight then do it outside."

Afterward, she stares at Zen, "Also, stop provoking Patriarch Daemon Kaiso on purpose. It wouldn't do you any good if this auction was canceled because of your action right."

The authoritative and powerful voice from Lady Seraphine silences the commotion instantly.

Zen ponders a while before shrugging his shoulder, giving his approval to stop this farce.

Lady Seraphine nods her head for being cooperative and glares at Daemon Kaiso for his response.

Clenching his fist, Daemon Kaiso took another minute before canceling his spell.

"Good, now that this farce is over, I decided to change the rule today. From now on, the bidding must be at least 1,000 spirit stones or more whenever they bid against the original call." Lady Seraphine announced and no one disagrees with this change.

"I understand, Lady Seraphine," Zen said slightly as he returned back to his seat.

"Hmph" Daemon Kaiso simply gave a threatening gaze at Zen before returning to his seat.

Seeing the situation has finally calmed down, Lady Seraphine once again smiles and apologizes for the delay and disturbances.

"Okay, now the bidding price for this magic sensory device is 50,001 spirit stones. Are there any other bidders?" Lady Seraphine announced as she kept the bid that Zen made.

Meanwhile, back inside Zen's VIP room, Evie was amused at how this situation ended abruptly.

"Are you a bit disappointed to know that your provocation ended this short?" Evie asked.

"What can I do? A beauty like Lady Seraphine asked me to stop and she was practically begging me despite the angry tone." Zen shrugged his shoulder.

Although it wasn't a lie to say Zen stopped his farce to give some face to Lady Seraphine, the true reason was that he detected something abnormal.

It was the fluctuation of mana that was hidden behind the curtain and he did not wish to mess with them yet.

Until he obtained the Soul Replenishing herb for Cecilia, he will not risk any action that could cancel this auction.

Daemon Kaiso was just a person that Zen can wait to toy with him slowly but Cecilia is a different case.

No matter how flirty and obnoxious his behavior is, his mindset has always been to help Cecilia in recovery.

'Sigh, so many complicated things to think over.' Zen sighed inwardly as he awaited Lady Seraphine's announcement of this magic sensory device.

"50,001 spirit stones going once!"

"50,001 spirit stones going twice!"

Lady Seraphine continues her countdown and everyone has no interest in bidding as they wait for Daemon Kaiso's response.

A few seconds later, Daemon Kaiso could no longer hold back as he shouted, "I bid 100,000 spirit stones."

There was no way he would let go of this item to his enemy. Although he bid 100,000 spirit stones, the true value of this item was still 250,000.

"Patriarch Daemon Kaiso has placed a bid of 100,000 spirit stones. Are there any other bidders?" Lady Seraphine shouted but she was looking at Zen.

'Hurry up and bid against each other so I can get more commission.' Lady Seraphine smiled inwardly as she loved to see people fighting against each other.

She may have stopped their farce but it was only because of the orders from above. If there weren't any orders, she would have watched the show in enjoyment where she gets all the benefits in the end.

Zen smiled slightly as he raised his voice, "I bid 350,000 spirit stones and that is my final bid. So if our little cute Daemon Kaiso wished to win this item to find his precious son then he should be willing to use his money."

"My goodness, what did Daemon Kaiso do to offend this crazy boy?"

"Who knows? Don't you know his only son, Jared Kaiso, is a lustful brat that puts his tiny dagger in every innocent woman?"

"Now that you mentioned it, look at the two women that are with him. I doubt Jared Kaiso has the gut to do something to Madam Evie so it's definitely that elf girl beside her."

The crowd whispers were loud enough for everyone to hear it and when they came to this conclusion, they were gloating from the inside for Daemon Kaiso's misfortune.

To have a son that goes around and offends people left and right. There was bound to be a time when he offended someone that they could not afford.

Although Zen's background remains unknown, the fact that he was able to have Madam Evie accompany him shows a lot of information.

Madam Evie to them is a special existence where even the three families and imperial family did not dare to lay a hand against her. Thus, only the most idiotic family would try to piss her off.

At this time, all eyes were now on Daemon Kaiso's decision. 

Would he bid for the magic sensory device? 

Daemon Kaiso had veins popping out from his forehead for the short amount of time he became angry from a stingy brat.

Gritting his teeth, Daemon Kaiso raised his hand as he shouted, "Since 350,000 is your final bid then I shall bid 351,000 spirit stones."

"What a cheap bastard you are? Your son's life and whereabouts are on the line yet you're only willing to bid the minimum from the rule set by Lady Seraphine." Zen smirked as he exclaimed his word.

However, Daemon Kaiso simply ignored his provocation and merely glanced at Lady Seraphine instead.

'Hmph, consider yourself lucky for now.' Zen cursed inwardly as he wasn't willing to bid a third time before obtaining the Soul Replenishing herb for Cecilia.
