Chapter 65 - Disappearance Of The Three Masters

Devon's eyes were already open, he stood up gently from the bed, digesting everything that had just happened to him. He stared at the other side of the bed and remembered that some days ago a beautiful lady was laying there, and today she was no more.

He sighed deeply.....

Getting changed into a new attire, he then walked out of the room.

Devon looked around the whole auction, wondering why there was nobody around anymore. The thought of something bad happening crossed his mind, but he decided to put it behind him.

To some extent, he believed that those three were capable of warding off any attack in the underground world. Devon checked all the staff rooms and still, there was no one there.

"Where is everyone," Devon said, seemingly perplexed. At the moment, there were only three places he had not checked in the auction.

The stone hall, the boss room, and the auction main hall.

The main hall of the auction was where artifacts, treasures, and all sorts of items were being sold off. The main hall was also the liveliest place in the auction, it was usually flooded with people coming in and out.

Most of the people who came to the auction during the day were mostly there to sell something. As the real auction day was always held at night.

During the past seven months, there had been several auctions were big families and organizations came to buy the treasures that picked their interest. But Devon never went there, as he spent most of the time in the stone hall or his room.

Truthfully, he also didn't know where the main hall was. So, it took a long time before he finally found a door that had a slate on top of it and had the word 'Main hall' written on it.

Devon stepped inside the main hall, and to his surprise, they were only six people in the auction. Four men and two women, out of the men Devon recognized two of them as they were Michael and Peter while the rest this was the first time he was seeing them.

"Where are the others?" Devon inquired, scanning through the surrounding. Seeing the six people here, there wasn't any point in checking the other rooms

Micheal sighed deeply, "They have left the auction."

"Why? Did something happen to the boss, the dominator, and the sovereign?" A deep frown had already appeared on Devon's face.

The days he spent with them made him aware that those two were deeply attached to this auction. And there had also been here for a very long time, so what could happen that would make them leave.

Considering how powerful the three of them were, what happened.

"The three masters suddenly disappeared, all the staffs searched everywhere, but they couldn't be found, it was almost as if they had vanished away from the underground world."

"Sigh.... The auction has many enemies and with the disappearance of the three masters, those families and organizations would start appearing one after the other. That's the reason why most of them left the auction."

"Only death awaits those who remain here."

Devon sneered, folding his hands across his chest, "Then why are you still here." Devon said.

"After all the three masters have done for us, we can't abandon this place. This is our home, and I rather die protecting it than run like a coward."

Peter was the one who spoke this time around, and the others nodded to his words, declaring that they agreed to everything he said.

"FOOLS!!!!" Devon bursted out laughing, "I see you don't have anything better to do than to throw your life away. If so, then I wish you all good luck." Devon stated.

The six knew they were all throwing away their life by staying here, but they all believed it was the right to do, considering everything the three masters had done for them.

"Are you leaving?" one of the women asked.

Devon looked at her and smiled, "Why would I.... This is also my home." he stated, making his way out of the main hall.

They all had their mouth wide open, they couldn't believe that Devon was not leaving. Because of the rumors, they heard about him, he was said to be self-centered and egoistic. So, in a situation like this, none of them had hope of him staying.

Besides, he was extremely talented any family and organization would recruit someone like him, even getting into one of the big three wasn't out of reach for him.

The six people in the auction stared at each other and wondered if they possessed half the talent Devon had, would they have stayed behind.

"Rumors are indeed just rumors after all," Micheal said.

Devon frowned as soon as he stepped out of the main hall. For some reason, a burden had been removed from him. He placed his hand on his chest, "It seems like that problem has been dealt with."

Devon stopped walking as he noticed a change in the surrounding, "Come out, Derek."

"How long did you know I was here." a youth with fiery red eyes and a scar on his cheek appeared in front of Devon.

The youth had his upper body part and lower body part wrapped in bandages. The only area that didn't have bandages on was his face.

Devon couldn't help but laugh at the state the youth was in, "Pathetic."

The youth was Derek, who engaged in an Intense battle with Devon some days ago. Who knew after that battle he would be reduced to this state even it wasn't for those six people left in the auction, he might have died.

"Go to boss's room." Derek vanished after he said those words.

A few seconds later, Devon was already in the room. The arrangement always amazed Devon at how similar it was to one of the rooms in the Reid mansion.

The last time Devon was here, he was injured, and he also took away the orbs that used to circle the room. Presently, the only thing left in the room was the odd-looking chair at the center.

Twenty minutes had passed and there was nothing, Devon was beginning to think that Derek played some trick on him.

"Place your hand on the black wall." a cold voice sounded in the room.

Devon stared around the room, there was only a chair in the room and nothing else so who spoke just know. He then seemed to have realized something as he approached the chair.

The chair began to shake as if telling Devon not to move closer to it. Seeing that Devon had changed his direction, the chair then stopped trembling.

"A spirit artifact..... Interesting." Devon went towards the black wall and placed his on it.

The black wall suddenly began to emit a white light that even made Devon close his eyes. A few seconds later became dim and as Devon open his eyes, his mouth formed an 'O' shape.

The black wall had turned into a book.

"Devon, if you're seeing this, then that is to say that the inevitable had happened to me and my disciples."
