After that, he called gently, “Four billion!”
He estimated Stephanie was almost reaching her limit so he only increased two million from Stephanie’s previous offering.
At that moment, Stephanie’s smile froze and her mouth was twitching
“Four billion! Mister Severin just called four billion. Miss, are you planning to increase the bid?” Caroline shouted out excitedly.
As of this moment, only two people were bidding against each other. Thus, she just asked Stephanie directly.
Stephanie’s face looked terrible because everyone was watching her and waiting for her to increase the bid, especially after what she said just now. Yet, the price had already reached her limit. novelbin
With an embarrassing smile, she said, “You win. I didn’t bring enough spiritual stones to continue. I can see how much you like this cauldron and you also mentioned that you are an alchemist so I’ll just give up on it.”
The situation was too embarrassing for Stephanie to continue staying in the auction center. After finishing her sentence, she left the place and went back into the VIP Room.
“Damn it! The girl didn’t win. Ugh! I’m so angry! He actually brought so many spiritual stones with him!”
At first, he was hoping he could have the chance to mock Severin after Severin lost the bid. Thus, he was not happy to see Severin win.
“Gosh, he’s so rich. Could he know in advance about this auction item and prepare a lot of spiritual stones? What are we going to tell your father when we go back?” Musa sighed.
He followed Stephanie back to the room and sat down.
Meanwhile, Stephanie poured a glass of red wine for herself and finished it in one go.
“I think he’s probably at his limit too. He was really calling a lot in the beginning but he only increased it by two hundred million in the last increment. Maybe that’s all he got. Even if he has more, I don’t think it’s a lot. It’s all my Dad’s fault. I told him to give me more spiritual stones when I came out. But he refused. We don’t often see a powerful alchemist in the mundane world, though and it was just a coincidence that he participated in this bidding.” Stephanie said.
Musa smiled bitterly. “You’re damn right. What a coincidence to have this guy participating in this auction with us. We can only go home empty–handed then.”
Then again, Stephanie could not accept her fallure after how she confidently vouched to bring the cauldron back. She said angrily, “Who said we’re going home empty–handed? I’m not giving up yet. I must bring the cauldron because this is going to affect the future development of the sect!”
Musa frowned and was shocked after hearing that. He exclaimed, “Miss Stephanie, are you going to steal it? 1 don’t think you should do that. We’re members of a reputable and notable sect. How could we become thieves? This is going to be very embarrassing if words get out.”
Stephante sneered. “What are you afraid of? He’s the one who embarrassed us. Besides, I’m not stealing it. I’m taking it from him by paying him billion high–rank spiritual stones. It’s a trade. What’s wrong with that?””
Musa was stunned and speechless at Stephanie’s suggestion.
Stephanie smiled and thought she was very stilart du come out with the idea. “Let’s followy lit and see where he’s staying. Then we’re going to take the cauldron tonight. No one is going to law that it’s you and me with our faces covered. He also has no idea which sect we are from So we’re not embarrassing our sect, right?!
Although Musa disagreed and condemned the action, le lanew low important the cauldron was to the sect, so he agreed.
“Okay. But you have to remember that we surely cannot reveal our true identity. Don’t wear any token or anything that could relate to the sect. Do you understand?”
Stephanie looked at her waist and frowned. “I’m not wearing it. I already put it away when we left the sect!”
