“Third young master…”Robert was shocked. Could the third young master intend to receive the customer personally? Giovanni shot him a glance, and he dared not utter another word.Audrey and her cat, on the other hand, stood at the entrance of the Auction House. As the attendant walked away, she subconsciously touched her face that was disguised beyond anyone’s recognition.She used a relatively lower grade face altering mask compare to the one she had been using, cross dressing as Andrew. That one was given to her for free and so far, have not failed her yet. However, it was only recently did she found out that such mask cost more than twofold of her school tuition for the entire year!Obviously, there was no way she could afford to spare such huge sum for this side hassle. More over,she also could not risk jeopardizing her disguised by showing up as Andre since the item they were selling was from stealing.Likewise, the effects of the low-grade disguise potion that she bought were
“That’s all I have. Please have a look and see if they are suitable.”Audrey could not determine the system of values in that world, and she was also unaware of the standards that they had at the Auction House. So, she could only rely on Robert to appraise those items. If they were unwilling to accept them, then she would need to separate them into smaller batches to be sent to other auction houses. Besides, she had to take extra care to avoid the Blacksmith Guild’s attention. If that were the case, then not only would she get the money she needed slower than her expectations, but she could also run into other problems as well. Robert nodded, then called for a few goldware and jewel appraisers to review the items that were scattered on the ground.As expected, every single goldware and jewel in that pile was of the highest quality. Robert had only seen items with similar quality within the Hearth Family’s main house.However…“These items are very valuable, but there’s some abras
As he looked at the skinny figure who fled in haste, Giovanni couldn’t help but laugh.“Third young master?”Robert looked at Giovanni’s abrupt laughter in puzzlement and felt somewhat afraid. Giovanni lazily shot him a glance.“What do you think about the items that the young lad had brought?”Did the third young master meant to test his evaluation abilities? Robert immediately became serious and said,“The items are all of good quality, and for him to take out such a huge amount of luxury items in one go, the customer’s background is definitely not as simple as he looked. Therefore, I could only be bold to accept this transaction. Furthermore, according to his last request, there must be some uses for such a large order of demonic cores. Even a hundred people will not be able to digest such a quantity. He could be from a wealthy family who wanted to purchase low-grade demonic cores to train their subordinates covertly.” Robert’s analysis was quite reasonable. The good thing about
Selene finally recovered after a period of recuperation. However, like what she had threatened Audrey that day, the fire had burnt off all of her hair and eyebrows. Selene’s head looked like an egg then, and other than facial features, it was spotless.The vain Selene cried and mourned what had happened to her every day. She was unwilling to take a single step out of her room, and she kept her mouth shut as to what had happened to her that tragic day. Even if she wanted to cause trouble for Audrey, he had no excuse to do so. She could only visit various auction houses and fork out a large sum of money for potions that could promote hair growth to fix Selene’s bald head.To avoid another untoward incident before they could invite the sage to their home, Hefetus immediately tasked someone to send the Snow Spirit Fox to the God Realm. Not long after that, he received news from them. In ten days time, the sage would leave for the Iridos, and he would also grace the Blacksmith Guild with h

With their strongest rival out of equation, winning the competition became a piece of cake for Audrey's group. Thus, it did not take that long before they emerged victorious; putting an end to the mock test, earlier than expected. However, unbeknownst to them, their success also attracted unwanted attention. Trusting his hunch, the evil school master paid close attention to the winning team since he highly suspected that his target was hiding in their midst. All along, no one but the people of Mystic Muses suspected Professor Sonny to be the apprentice necromancer in disguise. He had been hiding right under their noses. Now, Audrey' secret was close to being exposed! Meanwhile, oblivious to this impending trouble, Audrey's group along with their other fellow students who participate in the mock test, huddled back to their respective dormitories. Almost immediately, Audrey climbed at her bed and collapsed to its comfort right away. The same thing goes to her friends as that they al
By the time that hour hand of the clock hit twelve, Audrey's group was already done putting the last book back on its shelf. However, they did not look as thrilled as they thought they would be. They were able to find the answer that they were looking for. But at the same time, it was also not the kind of answer that they were hoping to get. "I knew that completing this quest won't be an easy feat. But who would have thought that it would be this hard? Isle of De los? Seriously, of all places?" Slumping back at one of the chairs, Nike ran his fingers up his messy hair. The others also wore the same conflicted expression and they all looked dejected if not tired. After going through multiple records that has anything related to the encounter with Graes, the group finally realized that their chance for success was next to zero. Entering and finding the lair of the Petrifying monster within the heart of the Land of Dawn, an inhabited sanctuary for all the rare and formidable beast, w
"Great! Now, we can safely assume that we are finally onto something and we won't be running around like a bunch of headless chicken."Jace exclaimed, delighted that they finally have something to look forward to, and not just merely a clue.However, for some reason, Niccoli seemed to fail to recognize the implied sarcasm in the other party's statement and so he retorted,"Basically, a chicken won't be able to run if it no longer has its head because it means they are dead, no?"Fighting the urge to roll his eyes upon hearing this response, Jace replied flatly."And so do we. We could be as good as dead too if we will just set to action, oblivious of what lies ahead or in this case, where to start looking.Truth be told, Jace's concern was not unfounded. Their days of searching might not be considered futile. Nonetheless, it was still not that fruitful either; or at least according to Jace's standard, the result they have so far was below satisfactory.This was due to the fact that de
