The bidding process went smooth without any problems, as he found no fierce fight over these scrolls. However, when he amassed five hundred of them he noticed a problem.
"My points aren't enough, I should sell another item, sigh."
He opened the mission interface again, selected the hijacked caravan one, before taking another shield and putting it into the meter.
. "A shield taken from a personal entourage of a very esteemed member of the shrine of gold. The total contribution points equal to such a piece is fifteen thousand points!"
"Do you accept such a trade? Beware, once agreed you can't undone it!"
"What the hell? Isn't it worth twenty thousand points minutes ago?"
The corners of his eyes twitched when he heard the number. And the answer he got made him even helpless.
"The more you offer an item, the price will be lowered accordingly. Rule of the auction and market, don't take it personally."
"I am!!!" he was angry about this stupid rule, but he couldn't do anything now except to accept the offer. "Fine, I accept."
"Beware, once agreed you can't undone it!"
"I said I do!"
Bloom then took the points and returned with an angry face towards the main screen again. The moment he won multiple scrolls on the row, he forgot totally about what just happened, and was instantly immersed in the betting nature of this auction.
"And the final one thousand scroll goes to drums, drums, drums me! hahahaha!" he was really in a very good mood, laughing and telling jokes about the auction like a kid!
The one thousand scrolls cost twenty five thousand points, leaving him with ten thousand points.
"Muna, what is the name of that thing to hide the fog of your summoning?" he asked as he read for minutes there and found nothing referring to the cloud or fog of summoning dark agents.
"It's called the seed of darkness, the master will need one seed for each token."
"That seems costly, but let's see the general price of it. seed of darkness another seed of darkness well to be fair they are present twice or thrice in each page," he muttered after surfing through some pages already.
"And the price?" Muna dared to speak out, asking cautiously about something that didn't matter much to have the wrath of her master if he was dissatisfied of her action.
"It's not that high, roughly one hundred points per seed," he rubbed his hands, without even noticing what she was worried about. "Tell me, do you want to have more sisy?" he asked with a grin over his face, a smile that made her more comfortable about him.
"What does master mean by sisy?"
"Other dark agent beauties, sisters to you," he said, as he returned to the interface where he placed his bids over many seeds as he added: "I have ten thousand points right now, so if I bought twenty seeds that will cost me around two thousand, and buying twelve tokens will cost around six thousands, leaving me with two extra thousands."
He then went silent for a moment as he placed his bids over the auction, while Muna next to him was eyeing him with strange glances; feeling some strange familiarity with him, not like a master but like a friend.
An old friend she never saw for such a long time!
That feeling made her forget the question he just asked her, and he didn't ask her again about it as he already placed his bids. "Done, now you will have more sisy," he smiled as he was very excited about his newly acquired dark harem army.
"Having them is fun, but to be honest without a proper place to call home, how can I have fun with them?" he suddenly thought about this, as he returned to the auction interface again as he muttered: "The previous time I had a city and was taken away forcibly from me. I had a huge mansion that was destroyed and my girls were either killed or lost! This life I won't let that happen!!"
And he started to observe the auction house, gradually being immersed in the game he first intended to enter to wreck and devastate, not to build a home and have endless harem there.
The auction list was huge, took a couple of minutes for him to finish reading, but he didn't find what he aimed for!
"There is a help option here, I will try it," he muttered as he selected a microphone icon on the corner. The moment he did so, a voice, a very soft voice appeared in his ears next, making him quite amazed by how sweet she was!
"Basic dark auction house customer service; how may I help you sir?"
He was startled for a moment there, making the girl on the other end ask again: "Sir?"
"Oh, sorry, never thought the auction house will have a live customer service," he joked, embarrassedly, while laughing nervously from her voice.
"Sure, sir, this is one of the privileges of our basic dark auction house. How may I help you, sir?"
She was direct and harsh. "Strangely similar to you, sigh!" he sighed and what he said made the girl on the other end startled for a moment there.
"I wanted to ask about any possibility to obtain a city, town, or even a village ownership through the auction."
"Does sir want to have his own dark city?" the girl was astonished before she went silent for a moment there as she then returned to add: "But your rank is very low right now. To obtain the right to establish a village, sir must raise his rank a couple of times at least, and he has to have a guild established under his name."
Bloom went silent for a moment, before asking:
"Should I have a dark guild or a normal guild?"
"Preferably normal guild, as we lack many eyes in the newly present system facilities."
"How can I raise my rank then?"
"Accepting missions from here, or from your own class. generally, doing great damage will always be rewarded with an upgrade from our esteemed dark masters."
"Good, I will heed by your advice then. Thanks a lot, may I know your name?" out of the blue he asked this, and the answer he got was for the connection to be severed by the girl on the other side.
"Sigh, strangely similar! Sigh!"
