"Well, which way to the capital is azure." Ask Clue. "If it's not wrong to go north." Said Junior. "Alright, lead the way." Reply Clue. Junior nodded then ran towards the north followed by Clue.
3 Hours later Clue and Junior saw a very large city surrounded by 100-meter-high walls. "Hehe, we're finally up to big brother." Said Junior. "All right, let's go inside." Reply Clue.
Clue and Junior walked towards the gate. The guard said as he saw Clue and Junior approaching. "100 gold coins for one person." Junior immediately threw a bag of cloth at the guard. The guard looked at the contents inside the cloth bag and nodded. "Come in." Clue and Junior walked through the gate and entered in the capital of Azure.
On seeing the level of the people walking Clue said. "Many strong experts here." Junior heard Clue's words and nodded. "True big brother. We better not offend anyone." Said Junior.
"Big brother are you interested in getting around town." Said Junior. "All right, let's go around." Reply Clue. Clue and Junior started to tour the city.
"Oh, aren't you Junior" said a man about 30 years old saying as he looked at Junior. "Oh, hello Dafy. Long time no see." Reply Junior to the man. "Hey Junior, who is he." Said man. "He is the adopted son of Queen Rapunsel." Reply Junior. "Oh, I heard that queen Rapunsel's adopted son is a genius who is ranked A level 1 who is not up to 30 years old." Men saying.
"Haha, right. Big brother Clue is a genius. Even the geniuses in the Azure dynasty were no match for him." Junior is proud.
"Hey big brother, there's someone who says that there are young men who are more genius than you." Said a 25-year-old young man when he heard Junior. Clue saw 2 men in their 25s and 30s walking towards her.
"Ahh, hello brother Aguero." Said the man called Dafy greeting respectfully to the man in his 30s. "Ahh, is Aguero the number 1 genius in the Azure dynasty." Junior was shocked when he heard Dafy and looked at Aguero.
The man called Aguero looked at Clue then said. "It turns out the rumors about you are true. I can't even see your abilities." Aguero sighed. "Ahh, brother Aguero is he the adopted daughter of queen Rapunsel who is rumored to be ranked A level 1." The 25-year-old who was with Aguero shouted in surprise. Aguero just nodded.
Many experts were staring at Clue when they heard the young man's cry. "Hehe. ternayata the rumors are true" said the old man laughingly walking towards Clue. Clue was startled as she looked at the level of the old man and began to be wary. The old man had reached level 950. Clue could be killed in an instant if the old man wanted to kill him.
"Greetings Mr. Riski." Aguero said, Junior, Dafy even the young man who was with Aguero greeted the old man. Only Clue did not greet him.
The old man looked at Clue and said. "Lucky Rapunsel got your genius son." Clue simply fell silent not retaliating. "Son, if you have free time to visit the rainbow shop." The old man said "Good senior." Clue countered. The old man nodded then left Clue.
Seeing the old man go Aguero said. "Did you introduce my name Aguero." Aguero. "Call me Clue." Clue shook Aguero's hand. "If you have free time to visit the sun academy. I'll greet you with respect." "Well, I'll visit if I have time to spare." Reply Clue. Aguero nodded and left.
"Hello bro Clue my name is Dafy, Junior friend." Dafy. "Call me Clue." Clue shook Dafy's hand. "Well, if you want to talk, you better not be here." Clue said he started to leave. Junior and Dafy nodded then followed Clue.
It wasn't long before Clue arrived at a restaurant with Dafy and Junior. The three of them began ordering food. "What is Bro Clue and you doing in this town." Dafy. "We're here for the dark auction." Reply Junior. The three of them started chatting.
"That big brother refused Mr. Riski's offer. It was the same as touching him. Even your mother queen Rapunsel didn't dare offend the rainbow shop." Said Junior. Clue fell silent and said. "Are there any s rank experts in the rainbow shop." "There, I heard that the rainbow shop leader Mr. Alva has the power of a level 1 S rank." Reply Junior.
Clue nodded at Junior's words and said. "Then the old man greeted me as to what his position was in the rainbow shop." Clue asked. He did not get to see Riski's status table due to caution. "Oh, the status of lord Riski is an elder in the rainbow shop. Despite that his strength reached rank A level 9." Said Junior. Clue nodded.
"Big brother, the auction is still less than 3 days away. So what do we do." Junior said to ask. "Oh, yes obviously practice cultivation. Don't you envy my powers and Aguero's." Said Clue. "Shit, yes obviously the envy of big brother. But even though I practice cultivation. It's hard to break through fast." Junior shakes. "alright. I'll find an inn to start practicing." Said Clue starting to leave. "Wait for Big brother, I will practice cultivation as well." Junior's after Clue.
After arriving at the inn Clue and Junior booked two different rooms. After entering the room Clue muttered. "What am I going to do for 3 days, do I have to eat, and just sleep." "Shit, eating and sleeping are also not bad choices. I haven't relaxed so long." Clue said then started lying on the bed and sleeping.
3 Days later at night in front of the inn. "Big brother do you have a mask. If you have it, wear it." Junior said he started wearing a mask. Clue understood then took out a white mask from the storage ring and put it on. Clue and Junior started leaving the inn.
Soon Clue and Junior arrive at a large house. Clue looked at the doorman and said. "How much does 1 Vip room cost" asked Clue. "Sorry, at the dark auction there is no VIP room like other auctions." Reply guard. Clue was surprised to hear the guards.
Junior looked at the surprised Clue and said. "Hehe, sorry for not telling you earlier big brother, the dark auction is different from the other auctions." Clue heard Junior's words and nodded. "It's take it." The word Junior gives a low quality ring to the guard. The guard looked inside the contents of the forging ring and nodded. "Come in."
Clue and Junior enter the house. Soon Clue and Junior arrived at a large hall. "This is your number, sir." Clue sees a woman giving him a number 140 and a number 141. Clue and Junior took a number and looked for a seat.
"Not many people are present." Ask Clue. "Hehe, the reason they were not present, might be the lack of gold coins. Moreover, they might already have monster slaves. These dark auctions were also always held once a month, so they could attend another time." Said Junior. Clue nodded at Junior's words.
A few minutes later Clue saw a masked man walking onto the stage. "Thank you to all the guests for coming to the auction this time. I'm Mr.x as the auction guide tonight. Without further ado I will show you the first auction item." Said the auction guide.
A man walked onto the stage with a small cage in which was a red cat. The man handed it to the auction guide. "The first time this was a level 1 B rank fire tiger was less than 100 years old. There is still a chance for the fire tiger to develop into A rank if it is properly cared for. No need to ask again, all the monsters that the auction house we sell are tame." The auction driver showed the red cat to the guests. "The price of the fire tiger is one million gold coins, the price will rise by one hundred thousand gold coins each time the offer. Bidding begins. "1 million hundred." "1 million two hundred." "1 one four hundred." The guests began to bid.
"Interesting." Clue nodded as she looked at the monster that was first sold at the dark auction. The fire tiger has reached level 329 in its 70s. "Don't say big brother is interested in fire tigers. Didn't the big brother already have a level 8 B pet." Ask Junior. "I'm not interested in the fire tiger." Reply Clue.
As the auction continued, Clue noticed that occasionally humans were being sold. Most people sold are women. Clue guessed that those who were sold were people who were kidnapped out of nowhere. Although there were quite a few pretty female slaves, Clue was not moved to buy them. Because his main purpose here was to buy an elf.
A few minutes later. "Alright, we're up to the last thing we sell." Said the auction guide. A man walked onto the stage followed by a woman in her 30s who had a chain around her neck. The woman who had a chain around her neck had a desperate expression on her face. "The last thing we sold was a race of female elves. Her name was Ratna she was 310 years old and her strength was rank C level 8. You should know, she's a virgin." Said the auction guide.
Author's Note: Elves age 10x more than humans. Elf age 100 years \= human age 10 years.
