Chapter 388 - Whats Plan B?

Chapter 388 - What's Plan B?

"500 gold coins."

"I can't believe the price has been able to go up this high" One said.

. Both the auctioneer and Russell looked at each other with a smile. Today had been the most successful day for the auction house yet.

"600 coins," Ray said, as it looked like there were no more bids being placed.

Both the Old man and Fenny from the Blackwings had no interest in the small little girl. They had already obtained female werewolves at a previous auction and thought it would actually take longer to wait until Rachel could give birth, but they noticed that Ray's actions seemed weird.

Just to test something, Fenny thought he would try something out.

"700 gold coins," Fenny said, raising his panel.

A few moments later, and once again, Ray had raised his panel.

"800 gold coins." He declared.

This had confirmed his thoughts. 'They had no interest in the werewolves before, so why suddenly bid on this one?' Fenny thought. That's when he noticed the anger felt by the person by Ray's side.

He practically was finding it hard to hold himself back. The viens up his arms were showing as he clenched his fist. 'This is personal, isn't it?'

He then released the two of them and had bought nothing from the auction house; they had made a bid previously, but the Old man had shut them down.

'That's it, their whole reason for coming today was for her.' Fenny felt like he had figured it out and wanted to do anything in his power to stop them from getting what they wanted, only there was a slight problem.

He had already spent most of his money on the previous werewolves and items before. He had just about 800 gold coins left if practically the whole guilds supply. After this, they would have no more money. It was a tough decision, and sometimes a leader should not allow their emotions to get the better of them.

However, Fenny looked at Ray one more time, and the anger resurged inside his body. "No… whatever I do, I can't let that man have that item."

He knew full well that the total amount of coins Ray must have had was around 1300 or so after the auction house would take its commission. The auction house had a strict rule that the funds must be paid there, and then, even if Ray did have more funds back at the kingdom if he couldn't produce it now, he wasn't able to walk out of here with the item.

Unfortunately, this rule was the same for the Blackrings. Not that he had any more funds to play with after today.

Suddenly, Fenny stood up from his seat.

"Where are you going, master?" Bonny asked.

Fenny didn't say anything and started to walk over to one of the other VIP seats in the room with a smile on his face. He eventually stopped at the Old man from the Empire and whispered into his ear everything he had managed to figure out so far. He told the Old man all of it, and then made a suggestion.

"How about you and me team up on this one. Maybe we can be partners once again." Fenny said.

The relationship between the two wasn't the best after the Empire had decided to cut ties with the Balckwings. Still, right now, they both had a common enemy, and Fenny felt like their relationship was only sour in the first place due to the Redwings.

The Old man didn;t say anything back to Fenny but just smiled and raised his panel.

"1600 gold coins, final offer." The Old man said.

With both of their remaining funds put together, they felt like they had just enough to outbid Ray. Now they just needed to hope he no longer had any more money.

On the stage, Rachel had somewhat an understanding of what was going on; when she looked at the Old man, thoughts ran through her head. She started to think back about all of her friends in the cave.

'Will I never see them again.' The sobbing continued once more.

Hearing this vast sum, that was nearly enough to buy a small town. Or would be around a month's worth of income for a city. Steven fell to his knees, thinking there was no possible way for them to save Rachel now.

If he could, Steven would have tried fighting his way out of here, but it was too risky. Every time he wanted to pluck up the courage to strike, the images of the kids outside that still needed him would appear in his head.

The yellow knights in Zrey were just too strong. He himself was unable to defeat one of the captain knights, and there were four of them. Even if Jack was powerful enough to take on one while he took on the other, what could they do about the rest? They would all be slaughtered.

On the floor, Steve continued to slam his fist into the ground.

Fenny and the Old man seeing this now, knew that they were spot on. They had indeed come to save the little girl.

"Sold for 1600 gold coins!" The auctioneer said.

Steve continued to slam into the ground, and his mask had fallen from his face.

Rachel, still on stage, noticed the large man's strange actions when she looked over a familiar figure. She had spent so much time looking at this man that she recognised him instantly.

"Steve!" She called out without a second thought. "Steve!" She shouted again, this time, with tears coming down her face. "Please… Please… save me!" She said.

His hands were now shaking, not knowing what to do. "I….I…Can't...Can..I?" At this moment, all he wanted was someone to guide him. Someone to show him what he should do.

Just then, a hand was seen in front of his eyes.

"Stand up." The voice said. "I said, stand up." Said once again, this was said loudly and in anger. The whole room froze, hearing the sudden loud voice.

When looking up, Steve could see that it was Ray's hand. Without a second thought, he decided to take it. When the two hands connected, Ray used Mana share to give back the mana taken from him earlier. Steve suddenly felt reenergized once more.

"We are moving on to plan B," Ray said.

"Plan B, what's Plan B?" Steven asked.

From his dimensional space, Ray bounded on all his equipment. Using the blood forging technique form Raten the small dwarf, his equipment was now bound to him and instantly put on. The downside was he could no longer sell the equipment as it could only be used with him.

Now standing in his full gear, Ray looked like a completely different person. He looked like a seasoned Adventurer who had been through many battles.

"We fight, I'm not going to let anyone leave this room."
