Legend Of The Winter Blade

Chapter 8

Alan was a bit shocked that the lady knew who he was and not just as Alan but as the Masked General.

“I know this is a bit weird but I don't know who you are,” Alan was looking at the lady trying to see if he would get anything out of the whole encounter.

The lady seemed a bit sad when he said those words.

She didn't let that stop her from talking to him, “I knew that there was no way you would be able to recognise me like this but then I wanted to give it a try after I saw you talking to the Mason family driver like you didn't care,”

Alan was looking at the lady, he then realised who she was, he smiled a bit when he did.

“I never thought the Angel Of Death could wear a gown and look like an elegant lady,” Alan was looking at the stage, he was still smiling when he said it.

“So now you recognise me, you are one hard head aren't you?” The lady was looking at Alan, she wasn't looking down anymore. “I heard you came down to Verin and I was curious as to why the legendary blade of justice himself came down to the city of Verin,”

“How on earth did you think I would recognize you? Why in the world are you here?” Alan almost threw a fit.

“I am thinking about the same thing here! What would bring The Blade Of Justice to a place like this?!” The lady scoffed.

“I am here on business! Business!!” Alan was trying to shake the lady off for some reason.

Alan was looking at the men setting up the auction table, he was not paying much attention to the lady sitting beside him.

“I wonder what Susan Potter, the legendary Angel of Death is doing at a place like this. I mean I knew you were of Verinian Blood but then I didn't know you involved yourself with these low lifes.” Alan was looking at Susan, he was not happy seeing her there.

Susan Potter, the beauty goddess of Verin and one of the wealthiest women in the nation, was unmatched in beauty, but aside from being the beauty she was.

She was also the Angel of Death, a deadly warrior known to kill any target she had in mind but also she managed to keep her identity a secret to make sure that no one would harm her family.

Susan was smiling, she was looking at Alan and she was happy as a child that she was talking to Alan Wayne, but then she was smiling for a reason and she was also there for something there for a certain reason.

She turned to look at the stage, “You see, I came here when I heard that they had certain earrings that belonged to my predecessors but also I have heard what goes on in this auction house with the courtesy of the Nixon family heir.”

Alan had a smirk on his face, he was looking at the stage as well, he was looking down to see that there were items being pulled out of the other side.

“I can’t believe that Verin is now being run by vermin and they are the law here,” Alan was calm and it was a bit scary if someone was to look at his face and the way he was waiting for them to bring out the heirloom.

“I will make sure that I will take this Nation back to its former glory, even if it will take me killing all the vermin that are now ruling,” Alan was looking around, he didn’t understand why it felt like they were being watched.

He looked around to see that there was something happening on the stage.

“I think it is about to start,” Alan said as he took his seat, he watched as they brought out items that they were trying to sell.

The announcer came out on the stage again, he had a smile on his face.

“Let the auction begin!”

There were high varieties of items being brought out on stage, they were going to be having a huge sale.

The people in the crowd were buying different items, millions of dollars were being thrown around like they were nothing but fodder.

But Alan had not even opened his mouth to say that he wanted something, Susan noticed that he was not even looking at the items in front of him.

“I wonder what it is you are looking for,” Susan said as she looked at Alan, he was a bit uneasy when he didn't see them bring out the heirloom.

“Oh you will know when you see it,” Alan smiled, he turned back to the stage and he was more focused on what he was doing, he had a feeling that there was a reason for them not bringing the main items. “I don't know why, but it seems to me like they are waiting for something here.”

Alan noticed that someone had walked in, and beside him was the driver that almost hit him.

“Say, Susan, is that the infamous Lord Mason?” Alan was looking at the man who walked in.

Susan stood up to look at the man who Alan was talking about, but then immediately when she saw him her face changed and she was looking at him like some kind trash had walked in.

"Yes, that's the infamous son of the Mason family and heir to their wealth, don't be surprised he is more of a douche bag than you think and I know he will do something odd here." Susan sounded a bit off, she was looking at the man who walked and she also acted like she was trying to avoid him.

Alan turned to look at the man, he could see that he was nothing less than pompous and it was not hidden.

"I take it that both of you have history?" Alan turned to look at Eleana, she was not saying anything then her body language said it all.

Susan rolled her eyes, she placed her gaze on the Mason family heir. "As scum come forth he's by far the worst i have seen, he and the Nixon Heir would go to any length to show how disgusting they can be and it's heart breaking,"

Alan noticed that Susan was not trying to hide anything from him, he turned back to see the man take a seat in the front row.

'I came for the heirloom, but then I will not stand by and watch Verin be used as nothing but a business transaction!' Alan thought as he went back to looking at the stage.

The announcer came out with a huge smile on his face.

"There is something huge here tonight people, it's a treasure worn by one of the Lords of Verin! The Great Wayne Amulet Of Verin!"

Alan sprung up from his seat when he heard the announcement, a dark smirk spreading across his face.

“Its time,”
