Chapter 50: Auction
.......
As she took her seat, the two bodyguards just stood close keeping an eye on anything suspicious. this is Morena Prudo, an illegitimate daughter of Nasubi Hui Guo Rou the ruler of the Kakin Empire...
She noticed Yasuo just looking at her so she assumed he is looking at her scar yet a faint smile still painted her face as she really doesn't care, she then said "Hi, do you need anything?"
Yasuo just continued to look at her knowing exactly who she is, a profoundly destructive person.
She takes no interest in the world at large or even her own life. Her only goal is to destroy a world she perceives as unjust and utterly disgusting, which she wishes to accomplish through indiscriminate carnage.
'I've read about her in my past life though in the scene she was shown, I found her personality interesting but that's just it while now, I find her quite attractive especially the air surrounding her giving her quite the appeal, is this actually my preference?'
He was in deep rumination lost in his thoughts, 'Most importantly, her ability in the story was quite interesting, too interesting even. Her potential is infinite and her ability stands at the top with few others... Perhaps I can use her/'
He seemed to be thoughtful for while looking at her until he heard the following bringing him out of his deep thoughts, "Excuse me?" Fôll0w current novÊls on n/o/(v)/3l/b((in).(co/m)
Questioned Morena again noticing him not responding though the faint smile never left her as if she has no care in the world.
That brought Yasuo out of his thoughts as he gave her a smile while saying, "Excuse my rudeness."
"Don't mind it...I'm used to it." She said thinking he was focusing on her scar until she heard the following stunning her for a second.
"I couldn't help but find you strangely attractive, how about I take you out for dinner, tomorrow perhaps?" After being stunned for a second, she frowned before answering negatively, "No,"
Yasuo just smiled while thinking to himself, 'I was planning on teaching someone interesting Nen in order to become a 2-star hunter but I didn't have much time and I found no one interesting enough for it to be worth it... except her... and it appeared she didn't learn Nen yet,'
He started stroking his earring, 'If I teach her Nen, will she bring chaos to the world or... It's tempting to find out... If she came here from the Kakin empire then she should be here for them...then I can possibly...
Also, she will be the leader of the Heil-Ly family in the future and she seems quite capable, yup, using her sounds like a good idea. I just have to keep her on a tight leash... For someone like her, It's too easy.
Is there anything easier than keeping a broken thing under a tight leash? No one wants it, they despise it in fact so the broken thing will cling on any source of light it can see, and well, she is broken, isn't she?'
"There are nine pairs available to auction, the starting price for each pair is 300 million jenny with every bid increasing the price by 50 million jenny, let the bidding begin!!"
Instantly almost everyone started bidding with Morena being one of them, the price increased rapidly though Yasuo made no bid as of yet.
This continued until the price reached 2.2 billion jenny with the bidder being morena, Yasuo noticed no one is gonna continue bidding so he lifted his plate with the number 48 to signal his bid.
"A bid from number 48!! any other bid? going onc... Number 56 bid again!!" Announced the auctioneer with the number 56 being Morena who is sitting next to Yasuo.
Yasuo continued to bid and the same for Morena making the price go higher and higher reaching 2.9 billion jenny bringing a frown on Morena's face as she turned her head looking at him...
'The funds allocated to me amount to 24 billion, if things went on like this then I won't be able to afford all of them, he better no go for any more of them or I'll have to...' then she gave up not bidding on this one.
"Going once...going twice...Sold!!"
Then the auction for the next six pairs of eyes continued with Morena getting all of them with an average price of 2.5 billion without Yasuo participating in any of them.
"Let's start the bidding for the eight pair!!!", As soon as he said that, Yasuo lifted his plate while saying "Three billion,"
"Number 48 with the 3 billion bid!!! any higher bid?"
That made Morena frown again then she bid against him only for him to bid again, "Four billion."
"Going once..going twice...Sold!!" Morena ended up giving up on them while planning to get the last ones at all cost thinking he will go for the last pair except, Yasuo not bidding on the last ones at all...
"Everyone, you can go to the guest Hall for the after auction event as for the bidders, please go to the main room in section 5 where the receptionist will verify your number Id,"
Yasuo picked up the briefcase and was about to start walking away when he heard Morena saying, "We didn't introduce ourselves previously...Elena," then she extended her hand while giving a fake name.
Yasuo turned around shaking her hand saying, "Yasuo..."
"Soo...Does that dinner offer still stands?"
Hearing Morena ask that brought a faint smile to his face, "Absolutely, tomorrow night?"
"How about tonight, right after finalizing our payment?" Answered Morena with another question, a faint smile still painting her face.
Yasuo feined hesitance for a second before saying, "Sure, so shall we?" He then offered her his arm which she took, they then walked arm in arm with section 5 as their destination...
