Chapter 82 Auction 3

Part 2

“Cry-san, your face is red, you know?”

“... You are just imagining it.”

“It will be fine, I will put my name on the line, we will absolutely, with any means necessary, get it. Rest assured. If we can’t buy it with our current funds... I can even sell my house.”

Without understanding what I was thinking about, Sytry holds her fists. It isn’t exactly the mood to ask for a little bit of money to participate in another Relic bidding.

Intense regret struck me.

Damn, if only I have saved even a little bit... No, if only Luke and the others quickly came back...

No wait. That’s it. I still have Lucia’s savings. I have Lucia’s savings! ... Hey, is there really a brother who will spends his little sister’s savings on his own?

Items are coming out one after another in front of me who is fidgeting poorly.

Whether the timing is good or bad, it is only Relics that are coming out.

A finger chain with mysterious power, a cloak that allows you to breath underwater. Boots that float only over one centimeter in the air. A crystal ball that predict the weather with an accuracy of seventy percent. A sword whose blade can change size from thirty centimeters to three meters.

I want them. I definitively want them. Even if I don’t use them. I am a Relic collector. Even if it doesn’t make you stronger, I want them.

A lust that usually rarely appears, come out of me.

A precious Relic is sold for dirt-cheap. Maybe because my eyes have been blinded by them, if I had the money, then I wouldn’t hesitate to get my hand on it.

Damn, if I could have bought the 『Reverse Face』 cheaply, I could have gotten all of them.

You aren’t buying it for a future investment, aren’t you? Are you really going to use it? I will use it. I am sure I will treat it preciously, so please give it to me.

Isn’t it fine? Isn’t it fine to forget the 『Reverse Face』? Is quality better than quantity?

Seeing Relics being bought by strangers or Hunters in front of my eyes is as painful as if I was watching the girl, I love being taken from me without being able to stop them.

No, but at this point in time... If I start to bid and lose the bid for the 『Reverse Face』, then I won’t be able to look at everyone faces when they have worked so hard for it.

I hold my fist with all my strength. Endure this. It seems that I would raise my voice if I let my guard down.

...... Ah, that is right. They will probably forgive me without saying anything.

Well, we have collected a lot more than the two hundred million, we told to the Ojou-sama. Won’t it work even if I use a little bit of it.

Enduring is more stressful.

Before I knew it, my body stopped trembling. I take a deep breath and ascertain my determination and raise my head.

I solidify my swaying resolve by speaking out. The voice squeezed from the back of my throat is hoarse.

“So, the time... Has come.”

Fine, play time is over now. Let me show you what real fear is.

It is a good idea to imprint in your eyes the true image of this “Infinite Variety” who borrowed money from his childhood friend to buy a Relic.

Just in time, what was brought out on stage was a giant black armor.

As if someone entered, the entire venue holds their tongue to the entrance of that majestic giant. Its total length is close to four meters. To match its size a huge shield and sword are equipped on it, it is obviously not for a human to use.

No, maybe Anthem could equip and use it.

While everyone was keeping their breath, the auctioneer reads its synopsis out loud.

“Next is entry number Forty-Four. A giant metal doll that has been recently discovered near the Imperial Capital. Please be assured, it doesn’t move. The armaments are integrated and the helmets can’t be separated but there shouldn’t be any problem. Its total length is three meter ninety, with no cavity inside. It has been determined that it is made with a special metal. You can melt it. You can use it as a decoration. Or if you want to buy it just for the sword and the shield, those weapons will be well worth your money. Moreover, it is nearly three tons in total. If you can have it of course... Let’s start with thirty million Gils!”

I see... It is not a weapon but a doll.

It is an amazing design... But this... I don’t need it. I don’t have space to use it as a decoration.

When I was feeling relieved, Sytry who was next to me, suddenly give a stupefies voice.

“Aka... Sha? Why?”

TL notes:

Thanks for reading!

Ta... Da... Da!!!!!! In the same this as Cry giving up and start to buy all the Relic, what came out is Akasha. What is he gonna do?

The time has come! Infinite Variety was aiming for this! Akasha the Golem made to beat Strange Grief made by Sytry! XD

Will Cry bid or wait for the mask?

Let the misunderstanding begins!

Tchao à plus!
