Gacha Sovereign

Chapter 996 "Love"



"Ladies and Gentlemen. I am Ryan Luzear, the first son of the Luzear Family. I am sure you all are looking forward to this auction, so I will only tell you the rules of our auction house and immediately start this auction.

"We only have a few rules. First, no killing, snatching, fighting, and any other things that require physical contact and destroy a part of a whole building. Second, we will ensure the safety of every person in this building, so please give us a face.

"Thirdly, everything will be resolved with money, so we encourage people to bid because you will be safe as long as you are in this building. The last rule is simple. Every time you bid on an item, you need to pay it immediately, or we will take your right of the item, classifying you as a troublemaker that only wants to disturb this auction.

"That's all. We hope that you can respect this rule, each other, and us. In that case, let's start this auction with the first item, Zunkheon Bow. This Bow might be a low Rank 9 Weapon, but there is something special within this Bow.

"The consciousness residing within the Bow is stronger than your average consciousness, making it easier to channel your energy to the Bow. The auction starts with ten million Spirit Crystal. Any bid can't be less than one million. Start." The young man explained, and the auction officially began.

"Eleven million!"

"Thirteen million!"

The auction became heated as soon as it started since the items in this auction were so good.

Meanwhile, only one room didn't get the same excitement as the one outside.

"This…" Nella was lost. She looked left and right, trying to figure out how to solve the problem.

For a second, Alex found the previous Nella, the one that tried to become cool and even though she was on her wits' end. It was easier to handle her this way rather than when she used trickery.

Alex remained calm and asked. "Is there a problem?"

"Ehm. I might need to consult this matter with my parents first." She scratched the back of her head while sweating. "You just asked about the identity of the other two VVIPs, right? The right one is actually aiming for this herb."

"Ho?!" This piqued Alex's interest since Alex wanted something like this. If he could have them chase him, he could fake his death.

"He is backed by one of the three sects, the Elemental Sect. Because of his lightning talent, he wants this medicinal herb to boost his cultivation, so he comes here with an Elder from the sect and an Elder from his family. One is a Rank 6 God and the other one is a Rank 7 God. I am afraid if you take this one…they…"

"If you can't participate in it, then don't bother. I will simply buy it with my own money." Alex shrugged.

"This…" Nella wanted to persuade him, but his serious expression indirectly told her that his opinion wouldn't change. This clearly went above her capacity, and she decided to retreat to discuss it with her mother and father. After all, the strongest person in this family was only a Rank 5 God, it was hard to fight against the Elemental Sect.

Alex, on the other hand, hoped that there was an arrogant young master that would fight him. He even chanted it inwardly. 'Come come, arrogant young master, come to me.'

[This is the first time you love to see an arrogant young master…]

'Because this type of person is the most useful way to get an enemy.' Alex laughed inwardly.

"I need to go out a bit." Nella hurriedly left the room, heading straight to her parents.

Meanwhile, Aria was baffled by the sudden transformation in Nella's personality. "Was she the same person?"

"Yes. When everything didn't go according to her plan, she was easy to get flustered." Alex nodded, confirming her doubt.

Aria didn't know what to think about Nella. The transformation was too ridiculous.

"Still, what are you going to do with those people in the other VVIP room?" She asked.

"Nothing. I will simply beat them with my money. It will be better if the Luzear Family can pay for it, but I don't think they will. After all, they are merely a merchant family, so they won't dare to pick a fight with a giant sect. The only thing their aim is to weaken the enemy's power by "robbing" their Spirit Crystals." Alex shrugged.

"Now that I think about it, there is an unspoken rule between the three sects. Unless it's something too big, the people from the sect shouldn't interfere with the matter in the outside world. And if they do, they should have prepared to get expelled from the sect. My brother wants to take advantage of the sect to get stronger too, so I know this." Aria nodded.

"Yeah. That's probably the reason."

"Is this the reason why you gave me the Teleportation Array Plates?" Aria noticed something was wrong with his actions during the past few days and asked.

"Yes. We might need to split up and leave this place using the Array Plates, so I give it to you. Besides, I am a God Rank Expert, so they won't be able to defeat me easily." Alex smiled as he didn't forget to assure her.

"I understand. I will follow your plan." Her expression was serious and her tone was severe.

This matter might concern their life and death, but seeing Alex already had a plan, she just needed to trust him, believing it would go according to the plan.

He then looked at the stage as it was already the fourth item.

On the stage, a vase with a strange pattern was auctioned. It was pretty mysterious, but Alex knew it only had a special array. Arrays were something he didn't lack and his knowledge about it was already too vast for him to absorb within months, so he ignored this vase until he heard a woman's voice coming from the room next to him.

"Thirty Million."

When her voice echoed in the room, the atmosphere turned silent as if they were thinking something complicated.

"Thirty million once."

"Thirty million twice."

"Thirty-one million." Alex raised the bid. Although he knew who to aim for, there was no guarantee that the people in the right room would buy it, so he wanted to make an assurance.

"Thirty-two million." The other raised it again.

Alex narrowed his eyes and kept raising the bids a few times while observing the room with his Spirit Eyes, but he couldn't sense any killing intents, so he thought he couldn't provoke these people and decided to let them win this item.

After all, he didn't want to waste his money like this, considering the money came from Eulja. Although he planned to open the door that contained Spirit Crystal in Encore, the money he had right now was still not his. He couldn't waste it easily.

Alex's guess was right. In the left room, the beautiful young lady only glanced over to the right and asked. "Who is in our right? Is he Young Master Quila?"

"He is not, Young Lady. It's a different person, but unfortunately, we can't find his identity."

"For an unknown person to get a VVIP invitation…He must be someone special. He is either someone influential or knows the Luzear Family. Can you investigate him for me?" She asked the elder behind her.

"Sure. I am also curious."

"Yeah. Try not to make an enemy easily since our situation is not that good after that mission. To think Nella Luzear managed to grasp the inheritance and become one of the people that the three sects want."

"Rank 2 God, huh…" The elder sighed and nodded. "I will do my best."

Just as the two were discussing him, the other room was also searching for Alex's identity. They normally got the information pretty easily, but the Luzear Family seemed to be protecting him just by looking at how hard it was to get the information about this person.

They only got his name which was Nyx, but they didn't know his influence or background, so they didn't know what this person wanted.

While these two became curious, Alex was relaxed. He knew that this move would certainly make them pay attention to him. And seeing that he had enough buying power, it was enough to make them think that he might be able to snatch an item they wanted.

This would build up the tension between them, and he planned to take advantage of that situation to anger them.

With a gentle smile on his face, he leaned on his chair and waited until the chance to antagonize the other room appeared.

Unfortunately, that chance didn't come easily. He needed to wait for twenty items before they began bidding.

The item was a spear that was imbued by Lightning Element. Alex then took another look at the room beside him. "Three people. One Rank 6 God, one Rank 7 God, and one Rank 10 God. The so-called young master is probably the Rank 10 God, which is very good. I love a stronger young master because they are more arrogant."

His voice was low, so even Aria couldn't hear it perfectly.

"Is there something wrong?" Aria asked.

"Nothing. I am just praising their strength." Alex shrugged. "Anyway, I am going to bid this."

"One hundred million!" The bid came from the VIP room below his room.

After that, his target raised the bid again. "One hundred ten million!"

The VIP Room seemed to have no more money, so they stopped.

It was the time for Alex to show his wealth.

"One hundred twenty."

"What?!" The young man widened his eyes and glared at the VVIP Room beside him. "One hundred thirty!"

"One hundred forty."

"This friend, I am Quila Siko, the disciple of Elder Lei Tian of the Elemental Sect. I wonder if this friend can let go of such a treasure? This Quila will thank you." The young man decided to talk because the spear's price was about to surpass its quality, so he wanted to show his identity to make Alex stop bidding.

"I apologize. We compare wealth in an auction, not identity." Alex's tone was nonchalant and clearly taunted him.

The young man became even angrier. His teacher was a kind of a peak master in the Unsurpassed Blade Sect and his rank was like that of the top five. In addition, the Elemental Sect didn't have restrictions like the Unsurpassed Blade Sect, so their teacher could easily help them kill someone. That was why only a few people would dare antagonize him. Yet, this unknown person dared to do it, how could he swallow it?

Albeit, not all people were like him. The elder that was with him immediately stopped him. "Wait, Young Master. There are two possibilities regarding this situation. Firstly, it's all a bluff. The Luzear Family might want you to spend more money than necessary by using that young man, but this is a bit unlikely. Even if we have our unspoken rule, we also ask for their respect to make it fair.

"In that case, we will be stuck with the second possibility. There is a chance that this young man dares to bid the spear because he believes he has enough power to content against you, including your background. If that's the case, he must be extraordinary, and we need to proceed with caution."

Quila finally regained his calm after getting the advice from the elder. He was sent by his teacher to protect him, so his word was quite effective.

However, another problem came. The elder from his family returned while shouting. "I have gotten the information. I have negotiated with an elder of this auction house and found that the one next to us is Nyx. He has a relationship with Melvie, the disciple of the Sword Blossom Peak's peak master."

When Quila heard that, he instantly snorted. "If he thinks that his relationship with her can protect him, he is wrong. There is no way that Melvie will protect him, much less the peak master. In that case…

"One hundred fifty million! I want it!"

On the contrary, Alex was smiling from ear to ear as he commented. "Oh, how I love an arrogant young master."
