Amon, The Legendary Overlord



I was sick recently, but I am now better and will be posting chapters again. Thank you for understanding.

"Isn't that your aunt?" Inside the VIP room, Barbara pointed in the direction of Flavia.

"Yes, it's her." Ariel nodded. Given her aunt's status, she had expected Flavia to be in a VIP area too, but to her surprise, she was among the crowd of people in the audience chairs.

"There's an open spot, you could invite her to join us here if you want." Bianca turned to Ariel and suggested.

Having someone like Flavia around would be nothing but beneficial. Bianca didn't know her deeply, but the little contact she had was enough to leave a good impression. Thus, she saw no problem in extending the invitation for Flavia to join them in the VIP room.

"Alright, I'll go there right now," Ariel responded, her tone determined and enthusiastic.

"Hmm," replied Bianca with a discreet nod, maintaining her calm and neutral expression.

In no time, Ariel found her aunt Flavia. Surprise painted Flavia's face as she saw her niece emerging from the crowd.

"Aunt Flavia, what a surprise to find you here!" Ariel greeted her enthusiastically. "Actually, we have a vacant spot in the VIP room. Bianca, Barbara's mother, you've met her, right? So, she gave us an invitation and she said it would be great if you joined us." Ariel explained the situation briefly, her face shining with an inviting smile.

Flavia seemed surprised for a moment, but quickly her face softened and she nodded, "Mm, I accept her kindness."

Indeed, it was better to stay in the VIP room than there, especially with some annoying people honking sometimes in her ear.

Then, the two walked together to the VIP room, crossing the bustling auction hall.

Flavia's exit caused a sense of loss for many of her suitors. Even Felipe Hiponeto was among them.

Upon their arrival, the group's attention turned to them.

"Thank you for the invitation, Bianca," Flavia said with a gentle smile.

"It's no big deal. My daughter has already told me how you took care of her before, it's the least I can do~" Bianca said with a smile: "Come, sit next to your niece."

"Mm," Flavia then headed to the vacant chair, and with a graceful and serene movement, settled in with the group, ready to enjoy the night unfolding.

"By the way, Aunt Flavia," Ariel started, taking advantage of the silence that settled in the environment.

"Yes?", Flavia responded, turning her attention to her niece.

"With your status, wouldn't it have been easy to get a VIP room?", Ariel questioned, with innocent curiosity. She knew of her aunt's excellence in various fields, both in terms of power and prestige.

"About that..." Flavia sighed, but soon a smile sprouted on her face. "Actually, I didn't intend to come to the auction this year, so I refused when they offered me a VIP room. But later, I found out there was something I wanted to buy at this year's auction, so I had to come."

"Ah, I see." Ariel nodded understandingly. It now made sense why her aunt was in the common area with the rest of the people.

"What do you wish to buy, Professor Flavia?" Bianca turned to Flavia, with a light smile on her face. "If you don't mind sharing, of course."

Flavia seemed indifferent to the curiosity and answered: "You can just call me Flavia. As for what I want to buy... Well, I'm not sure yet if it's true, but I heard that someone delivered to this year's auction, at the last minute, a piece of jade weighing 10 grams. They say this jade has the power of illumination. Have you heard of it? It's known as the Luminous Jade."

The Luminous Jade, as the name suggests, earned its denomination due to its unique property of emanating a soft and bright light, even in the densest darkness. Moreover, it was believed that whoever possessed it would be able to have profound and enlightened insights. The stone served as a beacon of wisdom, illuminating the path of the possessor and granting them unmatched mental clarity. However, as the jade was rare and precious, few had the opportunity to confirm whether these legends were true or not.

"I've heard of it before," confirmed Bianca, nodding in recognition. Although the Luminous Jade was a rarity for those who had not yet reached the Star level, still, the precious stone made some occasional appearances. However, it was always highly coveted and quickly auctioned off.

After all, it was a piece capable of helping someone to advance in level, coveted even by individuals of the Grandmaster Rank and, to a lesser degree, the Star Rank. However, for the latter, the amount of enlightenment that the jade could provide was quite limited, unless it was a particularly large piece of Luminous Jade. In that case, the situation would be different.

"Three years ago, a specimen was auctioned for 100 million CP," shared Flavia, then adding: "I have 150 million with me. If possible, I would like to acquire the jade this time."

Three years before, she did not have enough CP, nor did she need the stone at the time. However, now, about to have a breakthrough, she longed to obtain the Luminous Jade.

"What an exorbitant amount!", exclaimed Barbara and the others, clearly impressed.

No wonder Flavia had been invited to occupy a VIP room: with such resources, it was natural that the auction organizers would want such an influential figure to attend the event.

For Bianca, the amount also seemed high. However, she took the information more naturally, considering that she was used to dealing with large sums of money. After all, she could raise such a sum in CPs if necessary.

There were still a few minutes left for the auction to officially start. The seats in the luxurious hall were not fully occupied and there was a possibility that there were still guests from the VIP area on their way. In the meantime, they took the time to get better acquainted with Flavia, strengthening bonds and establishing a good relationship.

Amon, always curious and intrigued by the wonders hidden in the world, couldn't resist and raised a question. "I've heard of a herb mentioned in the auction item list. They say it can enhance genetics, or even boost its level. Does any of you know more about it?", he asked, his inquisitive gaze sweeping the group.

Bianca, with her more extensive knowledge about the auction items, nodded. "It's the Radiant Herb," she answered. "Known for its unique properties, this herb can stimulate an individual's genetic potential, allowing them to reach new heights of evolution. It's an extremely valuable item, and will undoubtedly be highly coveted at the auction."

Flavia, appreciating the exchange of knowledge, shared some of her own wisdom. "Amon, Bianca is right. Also, the Radiant Herb is extremely rare and hard to cultivate. It is one of the most precious plants in the universe of genetic enhancement. However, each person has a different reaction to it, so the results can vary."

"I see." Amon nodded and thought: 'So it's not something I can afford...'

After hearing the value of the Luminous Jade, he began to have a deeper understanding of how expensive things auctioned at this auction could be. If it's over 400 thousand CPs, even if he could borrow, he wasn't willing.

After several minutes of lively conversation, the atmosphere changed. The auction house began to fill with expectation as the start of the auction approached. An elegantly dressed man took the stage, sporting a warm and charismatic smile. He was the auctioneer, the conductor of this grand spectacle.

Maisa, her eyes shining with anticipation, turned to the group. "It's about to start," she exclaimed, barely able to contain her excitement. "I can't wait to see what they're going to present!"

Julia echoed her enthusiasm with a soft laugh. "Me too, Maisa. It seems this auction will be quite exciting!"

And so, amidst an electric atmosphere of excitement and anticipation, the auction was about to begin.

The auctioneer took center stage, his presence undeniably powerful. With a gentle gesture of his hand, he silenced the crowd, all conversations ceased, giving way to a reverent silence. With a microphone in one hand and an intriguing smile on his lips, he began to address the audience.

"Today," he said, his voice resounding in the room, "we will witness something truly spectacular. Items of inestimable value that rarely see the light of day. Treasures that can change your life, perhaps even the course of our world." The auctioneer paused, allowing the suspense to build in the room. "Are you ready to glimpse these wonderful artifacts? Are you ready to make history?"

The crowd shivered at the prospect, a buzz of anticipation filling the air. Many began to whisper among themselves, speculating about the items to be presented.

In the VIP box, Amon and the girls shared the same excitement. "It seems we're in for quite a show," said Barbara, a glint of curiosity in her eyes.

Mabel agreed, her expression equally intrigued. "Yes, it seems this auction will be more exciting than we imagined."

And so, under the watchful eyes of the audience and the skilled conducting of the auctioneer, the grand event was about to present the first item.
