My Dragon System

Chapter 366 - VIP area

With the commotion over — Just outside the auction house, the slaves including the metallic box were brought to the back to be sorted out for the upcoming sale today.

The people carried on without saying anything nor any word about what just happened which seemed somewhat peculiar for Ray. He also remembered the head knight saying some strange words in the middle of the confrontation. It was as if the two of them had some strange past.

"Do you know who the attacker was?" Ray asked Bob.

Ray was now interested at the attacker, even if he wasn't a werewolf, he would have been someone who had gone through the beasting process. Something that he believed only Lenny knew how to do.

"I don't visit this place too often," Bob replied. "Still, that person even came when I was here. I imagine he has some grudge against the Dem family. Perhaps one of his sisters were sold off as a slave."

"Strange?" Ray replied.

"What do you mean?"

"You said you didn't come here often. I assume maybe monthly or yearly but that doesn't matter too much. My point is — if he did have a family member that was being sold off, wouldn't he go after the person that his family member was sold to? Why would he deliberately stage an attack to the auction house?"

"I understand grudges more than anyone, but this doesn't quite make sense." As he said these words Ray watched the metallic box wheel just around the corner with his peripheral vision.

They had eventually reached the large double doors. The visitors were being tunnelled through as they checked everyone's belongings as well as their identifications.

Ray had seen this up ahead and decided to quickly drop his equipment into his endless void. It was common practice for them to rid all weapons in a place like this.

The auction house sold high-level equipment that would often be targeted so it was expected that the level of security was high, not just for the sellers but for the buyers as well.

"Before we go in I must warn you about something," Bob said, by now he had realized Ray's thought process. If he wanted something — he would take it. Regardless of the ramifications of his actions. He was the type of person that could be considered as the bane of auction houses.

"All items sold here are final. If you want something that has been sold to someone else... Tough luck. If anyone attacks a buyer or seller while inside the town of Zrey they will become an enemy of the Dem family."

Although Ray didn't say anything in retort… Bob hoped that his warning was enough for him to understand.

Bob displayed his ID to the yellow knight and informed him that Ray was his guard. When looking at Ray, he frowned a little. He couldn't imagine someone so young being useful as a guard, especially someone without his equipment.

They continued to follow the others down the red carpet and eventually, the group of people split up into two groups.

One group of people were directed straight ahead to the large and spacious hall while the other group was led upstairs to the second area. The group being led upstairs looked quite different from the others.

Their clothing was a lot higher class, there seemed to be a great difference in the quality of the fabric that made up their clothes, and the number of pieces of jewelry these people were wearing… On top of that, almost all of them wore a certain type of mask.

"Don't worry about them," Bob said. "Remember the VIP area I was talking about before. That's the area, most of them cover up their identity which is why I assumed anyone within that group can be anything but good."

"How do we get in there?" Ray asked. He was even more curious than before.

"I don't know. But I'll let you know that I don't qualify, so I can't help you. Maybe a big spender or someone influential in one of the big kingdoms. I hear that you have to be someone invited before you can even have the qualifications to go up there."

A number of ideas came into Ray's head at that moment but one of them wouldn't work out so well. He thought that maybe he could take one of the VIP members to the side and take them out — and then hide them until the auction was over while transforming using their identity.

But this was sure to cause problems between whoever knew the person, and Ray could imagine the verification process of checking a person was strict science they used a disguise to get in.

"Whoa... So, we finally made it. Looks like this was the right place after all." An annoying voice was heard from behind. That voice spoke quite loudly.

As Bob and Ray turned around, they saw two men.

One was quite a small scrawny looking person but next to him, was a man that had the same presence as a prince. His hair was nearly parted from side to side and although young, he had a sense of maturity around him

But what Ray noticed most, about to the two of them was the marking on their clothing. A bull with a ring around it. They were from the guild the Black Rings. The same group that had caused Ray trouble when they were trying to leave.

"Oh, the Black Rings are here," Bob said, quite surprised. It was normal for people in the kingdom to know of the Black Rings. For they were the biggest and strongest guild in existence.

Looking at the two walking towards their direction, Ray didn't even have to use his dragon eyes. He could tell that the man with that particular sense of maturity around him was the guild leader.

"I can't wait!" The boney man by his side said. "Once we get what we need from this auction those Redwings will be defenseless."

As the two of them continued to walk, they were eventually led upstairs to the VIP area.

When Ray heard what they said… His interest in the VIP Area burned even more. He wanted to know just what was going on in that VIP Area. He needed to be a part of it no matter what.
