The supreme sovereign system

Chapter 380 - A Surprise In The Auction

Alfonso and company sat in the third row.

"So, what kind of things are auctioned here?" Asked Alfonso.

"Mostly soul related artifacts" Said Deko.

"People here are most afraid of one thing here… become weak" He added.

"Why?" Asked Drakini.

"If you are weak, then you are prey instead of hunter" Said Deko.

"I-I-I see…" Said Drakini.

"Where is Carmine?" Asked Alfonso.

"She should be here pretty soon…" Said Deko.

"WELCOME, EVERYONE!" Suddenly, a voice interrupted them.

Alfonso turned and saw the butler who was standing with a smile on the platform.

Behind him, stood a woman with purple eyes and blonde hair.

"There she is" Whispered Deko to Alfonso.

Alfonso looked at Carmine.

"She really resembles Lucy a lot" Thought Alfonso.

"Ladies and Gentleman, we are about to begin the auction, this time, there a lot of amazing and useful artifacts!" Said the butler.

"He always says the same phrase" Said Deko.

After a round of claps, the butler when to backstage and brought the first item.

"This is three tons of first quality tender meat"

"You won't be able to find this meat anywhere!"

"Remember, this is TENDER meat, you know what I am talking about, right~?" Said the butler.

Alfonso looked at the packages that were leaking blood and felt the urge to vomit.

"Ugh!" Alfonso tapped his mouth.

"It's not usual THAT young human end up here, this is indeed a rare item" Said Deko.

He turned to look at Alfonso's face and laughed.

"Humans, so mind-weak" Said Deko.

"Imagining that instead of a human, they were demons" Said Alfonso.

"So what? I myself have eaten demon kids" Said Deko.

"You…" 

Drakini looked at Deko's face and she grabbed Alfonso's clothes with a little trembling.

"Fucking demons" Thought Alfonso.

"The auction will start with 100 gold coins" Said the butler.

"Golden coins? Didn't you say that gold coins didn't have any value here?" Asked Alfonso to Deko.

"To me, golden coins didn't have any value to me, however, for the lower circles, is value" Said Deko.

"However, it's not like you can afford anything here do you?" He added.

Alfonso had approximately 80 golden coins… more or less.

"200"

"250"

"400!"

The people began and, after a couple of seconds, the offer close in 512 golden coins.

"Demons who don't know how to spend their money" Said Deko.

"The second object of the auction is something that will interested everyone here" Said the butler.

[Ding!]

Alfonso felt a sound in his head.

"What?" Though Alfonso.

"This is a rare item from the fifth circle!!" Shouted the butler

"Ohhhhh!" The audience became excited.

"It's something to be so amazed about?" Asked Alfonso.

"Usually, the artifacts always come from the third circle and, in rare occasions, from the four circle, however… from the fifth circle? Only one or two items are auctioned" Said Deko.

"If it's that rare, why did they auctioned it as the second object? Something like this shouldn't be for the very finale?" Asked Alfonso.

"Yeah, it should be… it seems that this auction is going to be more special than what I initially thought" Said Deko.

[Ding!]

"Again…" Though Alfonso.

"Everyone, this strange object was found by our monarch by accident! Although is small, You shouldn't underestimate it" Said the butler.

He showed the object.

"What?"

"The heck is that?"

"Why don't I feel anything coming from that!"

"Bullshit!"

The crowd shouted in fury.

The object didn't emit any kind of soul power!

"Although it seems interesting, if it doesn't show any sign of soul power, is trash" Said Deko.

 He turned to look at his side, and he was surprised.

"Why are you making that face" Said Deko.

Alfonso looked at the object in question.

"I see… so that was why it was making that ringing sound… the system" Murmured Alfonso.

Alfonso was absolutely stunned by the object in question.

"We don't know the origin of this object, so! we will start with five hundred coins!" Said the butler.

"Five hundred gold coins for that trash! What a rip off!" 

"I don't know, it's an object from the fifth circle, maybe it has come mysteries on it"

"What's more, it was found by the monarch himself… maybe is a treasure?"

The conversations about the mysterious object could be heard all over the place, however, there was someone who was looking at the object in quietness.

"Deko"

"What?"

"I want that" Said Alfonso with seriousness.

"Huh?"

"I said, I need that"

"Lend me some money"

"Who am I? A bank? Why should I lend you money?" Said Deko.

"You want to know more about the red gas right? I will tell you everything about that red gas" Said Alfonso.

Deko's eyes shone.

"Really?"

"Really"

"It's a deal!" Said Deko with a smile.

"600"

"650"

"750!"

Alfonso looked a bit worried while he saw that the highs were increasing.

"2000!"

Suddenly, the venue became quiet.

Everyone turned to look at the insane person who suddenly said such a number!

"Look, is Deko!"

"Deko the broker!"

"Why is he buying this thing for such a price!"

Everyone discussed around while Deko smugly went to retrieve the object.

The butler smiled a lot thinking that the lord will give him some prize for selling the object at such a price.

"Fool" Though the butler while he gave the object to Deko.

Deko retrieved the object and when back to his sit.

"Here, I don't know why do you want this but I already did my part of the deal" Said Deko.

Alfonso grabbed the object and smiled.

"Yeah" Said Alfonso.

"I will be waiting for my answers" Said Deko.

"Although, I don't understand, why did you want this piece of junk, it looks completely useless!" Said Deko.

"For you may be, however, for me, it's of great use" Said Alfonso.

"Humans, I really don't understand them" Said Deko.

"Humans are the weakest of the animals, after all, so we need to compensate for that by using our brains" Said Alfonso.

"So arrogant… so? how did you call this thing?" Asked Deko.

Alfonso smiled.

"We call this…"

"A gun"
