Chapter 1136 New Target

Chapter 1136 New Target

"If that's the case, then I don't really know." Anna frowned. "Well, I might have an idea for the second person." She paused for a moment. "First of all, there is a rather unique person. He is criticizing the kingdom due to the fact that it's easy to execute the commoners while it's hard for the nobles to get punished by something."

"Hoh? That's indeed unique as well as dangerous. He should know what it means to criticize the kingdom and its nobles, right?"

"Indeed. As a result, he is being scrutinized by all the people around him. However, two years from now, he ends up finding a true master. He changes the way the land is regulated, and it's not limited to crimes."

"Not limited to crimes?" Noel frowned.

"Yes. You should know that to export our items, there will be several regulations and checks, right?"

"Indeed. It takes several days, since we also need to notify the destination regarding it." Noel nodded.

"In our previous lives, when he took the office, he reduced all that process to just two days."

"!!!" Noel widened his eyes in shock. "Are you sure about it?"

"Yeah. That first day is to handle everything on our side while waiting for the letter to be sent to the destination. The second day is the finalization. We can send out the export that day. And that territory is soon loved by the merchants."

Noel became even more interested. "And who was his master?"

"Christina."

"Countess Christina?!" Noel looked shocked.

"Yes."

Noel looked down, contemplating. 'It's true that Countess Christina's location is in the center of the kingdom. With her territory as the basis, people would love to use it as a hub. But Countess Christina currently has a good relationship with Duke Lorelei, and the latter is related to the third princess.

'Don't tell me. The Third Princess has been manipulating everything behind the scenes?' Noel gasped. "If this is true... she is one hell of a princess."

The excitement inside the auction house gradually increased as the items became more and more expensive.

Unfortunately, there was nothing that piqued Noel's interest. Even in the catalog, the only thing that he wanted to buy was the sword.

But because of the sword's origin as well as its power, it was listed as the last item to be auctioned.

During that time, Noel made some small talk, trying to get some information from Hilda regarding the protective screen. In addition, he also tried to understand how the auction was held and how he should proceed with the bid.

Finally, after waiting for almost two hours, the last item was finally brought out. The host had changed from a beautiful woman to a middle-aged man who appeared to be a spirit master.

The weapon was shown inside a glass case.

This sword looked a bit unique. It was a bit thicker than a normal sword, and the aura exuding from the sword was actually beyond Dimitri's weapon.

The blade was actually green, with a few cross symbols lining up in the middle of the body. The cross guard was a circle, and the handle was at least two times longer than Ardagan's.

While Noel needed to adjust himself a little bit if he wanted to wield this sword, it shouldn't be much of a problem to master it. Nevertheless, this was just a replacement. He could still use it for another thing later.

The host explained, "And with this, we've arrived at the last item of the auction. This sword is called Forsaken Duality. It's a treasured sword of the Sherverna family, who are famous for their spear technique. The starting bid is 10 million, and every bid can't be any lower than 1 million."

"11 million!"

"15 million!"

"16 million!"

The people started bidding with excitement.

Noel smiled and finally opened his mouth. "Hilda. Win this sword for me. Just use 10 million in every bid."

Hilda looked shocked at first, but she immediately nodded. "Understood."
