"I shall be the one verifying that claim for all of us here. I am the Lord of this territory and a summoner as well. I can assure all of you that the egg is legitimate and is very healthy. I promise that using my own title as the Champion of the Twin Gods." Adrian stated as he went to the front and introduced himself once again with a promise.
The crowd are finally done being skeptical because the territory lord himself even promised using his title. If Adrian's title as Champion of the Twin Gods were weightless then there would be outrage but it was a heavy title. His very words also represent the Twin Gods, and he would be struck by their rage if he lied.
"Can we know if any person could hatch this egg?" another asked as they do not want another person to hatch the egg for them.
"Yes. In fact, this egg is not that far from hatching. It only needs certain materials that exude the light element and a couple of extra things for it to hatch. As all of you know or for those that do not know, bird monsters tend to imprint on the first being that they see once they hatch. This also goes for the phoenix as well since they imprint on the one that greets them when they hatch." Adrian stated which made the audience shudder.
The audience could not believe that a powerful pet could fall into their hands just like that. They might not be able to hatch it now, but they could always ask a person that is knowledgeable to give them the insight. They could always pay another person for the information of hatching an egg and they would do it themselves.
"Does the knowledgeable Avalon Lord know of the way to hatch this egg?" A person from the VIP room asked which stunned the crowd as it was a beautiful female voice.
"Hatching it is not a problem for me. I know of a way to hatch the Light Phoenix Egg if any of you are wondering but that is another issue entirely. As all of you know, information is also a valuable asset, and I already gave free information earlier." Adrian stated as he smiled.
"If that is the case then will the territory lord join in the bid for the Light Phoenix?" Another voice from the VIP asked but this time it was a deep male voice.
"I will not join in the bidding of this Light Phoenix Egg because I already have a bird monster under my control that is very jealous. I am sure that all of you can see my elegant Saena flying around Avalon while she protects the territory. She is not really very keen on me having another bird monster with me as she alone is enough." Adrian stated with a smile as he knows that Saena could hear what he is saying.
"I see then the Lord of Avalon is indeed a good person since you gave us such an opportunity." Another person from the VIP room stated with a light laugh.
"Thank you for the generous praise. Now, let us return back to the agenda at hand. I am sure that all the patrons here are jumping for the chance to have their bid. All of us here are also itching to have the items that we purchased using the monetary assets that we worked hard for. As the Lord of Avalon, thank you for your patronage." Adrian stated with a perfect business smile.
Adrian might not be smiling genuinely but he has perfected the business smile at least. He perfected this on the real world as a way to gently pass the people want to talk to him. Although inside, he is smiling like a maniac as he will receive a comparable amount once this auction is over which will be a good thing for the territory.
"I will no longer need to use my own assets to make the territory better. Since I betted the Light Phoenix Egg, its value will definitely skyrocket. It is a good thing that I took... I mean liberated it from that pesky tower." Adrian stated as he returned back to his position where he observed the NPCs that are in disguise.
"Thank you, Lord Equinox. To think that the Lord of Avalon would verify it himself is such an honor. I am quite sorry for the appraisers for not being able to do their job before our lovely patrons, but the Lord of Avalon stepped up gracefully.
The Light Phoenix Egg will be sold for a price of 15, 000 gold with an increment of 1,000 gold per bid. You may also throw in some notable items along with your monetary bid which will be assessed by the appraisers on standby. This might take a long time but the one who put the egg on auction stated they agree to this.
This is the very first time that the auction hall of the Merchant Guild to host a Mythical Tier egg after all. I have told you correct information as the Light Phoenix Egg could be raised to the Mythical Tier. A person to own a lesser divine beast is such a great prestige after all. Let us now begin the bids." The announcer stated.
Meanwhile, a group of individuals are seething with anger as they recognize that egg. It was an egg that was being incubated in the Tower of Babel, but it was also a way to energize the tower using the light energy that the egg radiated. Mikayla was being stopped by two other angels from causing a scene as there were prying eyes in the area.
The moment she flows into rage and shouts would mean their disguises will be gone. They are not in a good position in all the people in this auction hall. They are also in demon territory which mean they would likely die escaping if they were found out. They must return to the Silver City and report on the missing egg that Mikhail was searching for.
When the angels were all recalled to the Silver City to assess the damage that occurred, they ran an inventory check on all of the items in the Tower of Babel. The fact that an important artifact which is the Vestige of the Sun God was gone and a few items made Mikhail flow into rage. Mikhail even harmed some of the angels on duty of protecting the missing items.
Mikhail wanted to hatch the Light Phoenix as it will become its mount when he fully descends onto the ones living on land, but that plan has been scrapped. The only reason he did not let the Light Phoenix Egg hatch is the fact that they needed to keep the Silver City afloat when they were sealed inside of it.
The angels needed sources of Light Energy so that they do not starve or die from energy deficiency. If they did not do that then a lot of angels would have perished and their plans for revenge will not happen. The angels knew that, but they cannot make a move since all of them are being monitored as they could see that Adrian was gazing at them from time to time.
The angels thought that their disguises were perfect, but Ark is just another breed of Nephilim. He could detect angels even though they are occupying a person. He is not the prophesized King of Light and Darkness for nothing. The teaching of her newly acquired sister is also a bonus for his great sense for light and darkness energy.
"Calm down, Mistress! We cannot make a commotion here because we are surrounded by enemies. You are an important person for our Lord Mikhail. If you are hurt or captured, then our lives will also be forfeited." One of the angel guards told her via telepathy.
"We do not even know if that is really the one that was stolen from us. Please keep your composure." Another angel guard stated to pacify Mikayla.
Mikayla calmed down but she also participated in the auction to win over the Light Phoenix Egg. Her brother was very upset when his precious future mount was gone. Even though they were the original owner of the Light Phoenix egg, the angels needed to suck it up and bid for it. They will learn of the identity of the seller once they purchase it, but they already have a hunch.
The auction for an egg of a mythical being is not to be taken lightly. The people that did not bid earlier started to bid fiercely as they want it. The people wanted it to the point that the price inflated all the way to 70, 000 gold coins.
"100, 000 gold coins!" The female voice from the VIP room stated which made the room silent.
