After a long wait, the long-awaited day finally came. The day that Jeanelle and Louis were going to the auction, the Crown Prince was lucky not to be suspicious of Louis's remark that he asked permission to go outside for a while.

Jeanelle also wore a regular dress, a knee-length dress with short sleeves of blue in white, a mane clamped with ribbons, heels with no matching color. Don't forget the neutrals that have been changed with the magic ring to brown. In this case no one would recognize her, plus Jeanelle also used Louis's magic robe.

"Are you ready?" louis asked with his right hand stretched forward. "We're going to teleport."

"What's? I thought we were gonna ride the horse-drawn carriage."

Louis tilted his head. "If there's teleportation magic why use a horse carriage?" after which Louis muttered in a spell, a magic circle appeared before them.

Jeanelle wondered, had Louis used teleportation magic to go to the Palace all this time? Teleportation magic is a magic that can rarely be mastered smoothly because it is very complicated let alone having to determine the right coordinates.

It was even rare for an Imperial mage to be able to produce teleportation magic. If true, it's worth all this time Louis was stared cynically. Using teleportation magic in front of an Imperial mage isn't it the same as showing off?

"Daughter? Why are you daydreaming?" louis asked, which made Jeanelle shake her head.

"No, let's go." Jeanelle enters the magic circle with Louis and along with the wind of the magic circle disappears.

In a short time they were both in a large building containing people in luxurious clothes, all the humans who came to this place wore different masks.

Of course Jeanelle and Louis were wearing masks that covered their entire faces, the masks they were wearing were just plain white masks with no complexion.

Everywhere this place looked more like a party hall than an auction hall. It was far from what Jeanelle imagined.

Jeanelle thought the space would be similar to a cinema room in the modern world and minimal lighting, but it was not. Jeanelle was even stunned to see this auction place.

"It looks like this is your first time going to an auction" Louis said suddenly.

"What am I going to the auction for all the time? There's nothing I need either."

That's right, but if you know it's going to be like this, it looks like Jeanelle will be going to the auction from the start.

"Well, today was really very crowded" said a man in a black and white tuxedo suit and a crying clown mask.

The man spread out his hands, it seemed like the man standing on the podium was using loudspeaker magic, his voice so jarring inside the room.

"The work has begun." whispered Louis as he crossed his hands in front of his chest. "By the way your number board is, if you want to buy something you have to lift this number" he said, giving a wooden board containing the number 123.

True also if you want to enter the auction must use the ticket and the person who bought the ticket will be given a number board made of a mixture of wood and gold. Jeanelle hasn't bought the ticket yet but it looks like Louis has everything ready.

Jeanelle glanced at Louis' wooden board, numbered 56. Louis was really prepared.

"Because today we have a lot of finished goods without waiting long I will start the show."

The sound of applause sounded so lively from inside this room, people who stand watch carefully what goods will be sold and of course the goods that are here are illegal.

The host one by one began to introduce various items, ranging from rare gems, rare creatures, monsters, artifacts and so forth. But it seems that none of the stuff that uploads Louis' taste, Louis like he was waiting for something very important for him.

Jeanelle almost wanted to buy all of these things but she tried to hold back and wait for something very useful for her.

"Here comes the 36th item, the one made by the leader of the Magic Tower. An artifact that possesses an extraordinary ability that he says is capable of protecting us all, the Chronos Artifact."

The host showed an Artifact shaped like a sleeping lamp with an intricate carving and in the middle there was a crystal ball, several circles around the crystal ball and rotating, and, there are also writings or numbers contained in the artifact.

Jeanelle glanced at Louis standing next to her, Louis' hand shaking and clutching the wooden board so firmly.

Cracks.

"Hii.." ringis Jeanelle was a little scared when she saw the wooden board that Louis was holding cracked, fortunately not to break. But it was made from a mixture of gold and a bit of magic so it was impossible to crack that easily even if it was held very strong.

It was obvious that Louis was very angry, naturally. Louis must have been ordered by the Magic Tower Owner to take back his item let alone seem like the artifact was of great importance.

"100 gold."

"300 gold."

"700 gold."

People were offering high prices for the artifact, Jeanelle could not even calculate how much money could be made from the hundreds of gold. 200 Gold alone can buy the title of a Baron or Viscount class noble let alone 700 gold, would have been able to buy the title of Count noble.

"1000 gold!" louis said as he lifted the cracked board.

"1500 gold." said another nobleman. Looks like the noble wants to have his artifact. If the Magic Tower Owner's ability is no doubt.

"2000 gold!"

"2500 gold."

"3000 gold."

"4000 gold."

Jeanelle gawked at the bargaining action, 4000 gold? Is he really a Duke?

Louis was visibly upset, if he did not hold back maybe Louis would throw the wooden board towards the host or towards the nobles who constantly bid the price.

If Louis could destroy this place, Louis would have destroyed it, but Louis had to be careful. Jeanelle herself did not want to participate in this matter, she would not help Louis because if Louis helped would be more upset. Jeanelle could be sprayed later.

"20,000 gold!" louis said with emphasis.

Jeanelle who saw that clearly gawked in surprise, 20,000 gold she said? That equates to how many trillion? The price of monsters is not that expensive. Crazy one! How much did Louis pay to be able to throw away 20,000 gold so easily?

Is there anything other than the great magician Louis is also a noble who holds the title Duke? It seemed impossible, if he was a noble there was no way Louis would teach him because Jeanelle knew that the duties of the nobility were very much and did not even have time to sleep.

"Well, wow it seems like the white masked master really likes this thing to the point of offering a high price. Hows it? Can anyone bargain again?" said the Host who made the visitors speechless while whispering.

"Hm... It seems there is no more! Then congratulations to the Master with the number 56, you get the Chronos Artifact. You can pick it up after the event is over." he said, giving a code for his men to bring the Artifact back, because the Artifact has been sold it must be stored properly.

After that Louis continued to buy some artifacts or objects that he thought were stolen from the Magic Tower, of course Louis bought them at high prices.

'Actually how rich is he?' Jeanelle could not even speak anymore.
