In the Manor of the Bluemoon Family...

The hallway of the Bluemoon manor was dimly lit, with the flickering flames of the wall sconces casting shadows on the intricately carved wooden walls.

The air was thick with tension and concern as two figures conversed in hushed tones.

"How is his condition now, Duncan?" Conri Bluemoon, the patriarch of the Bluemoon family, asked, his voice low and anxious.

"He is still burning and unconscious," responded Duncan, the great alchemist from the Bluemoon family, his face etched with worry.

"It's already been a week, and the kid has not woken up." Conri's expression darkened.

Just then, Zane entered the hallway, his face pale with concern. "I just came from his room. He is still the same, Father," he reported.

"Is his master still around?" Conri inquired.

"No, Father," Zane replied, shaking his head. "He went back to Mossy Hollow and said he would pick up Oasis's sister."

Conri sighed deeply. "Oh well, let's wait and see how your friend does."

"But Ma

    “Theodore Kaizen…”From Room A8, Mokai Ghecho sat slumped slightly forward, his hands clasped tightly on his knees, his breath shallow.The veins on his temples pulsed as he stared toward the general section where the voice had come from.“He was right there… in plain sight,” Mokai muttered, voice hoarse. “Yet I couldn’t even tell that this monster was among us. This is truly humiliating…”He chuckled bitterly, shaking his head as if scolding himself.“To think I was acting like a big fish… trying to trample the weak. But I’m not far from them after all.”His words, though whispered, trembled with both shame and self-awareness.Around him, the lamps flickered, reflecting off his eyes—eyes that carried both admiration for himself and despair.For the first time that night, Mokai’s arrogance had been stripped bare, leaving only humility in the presence of overwhelming greatness.From the general area, the calm, voice of Theodore Kaizen answered, steady and unhurried.“You speak as thoug

    The air in the auction hall thickened—heavy, suffocating, and electrified.Oasis’s azure eyes glowed faintly as the Primordial Gaze pulsed once more before fading into stillness.Through it, he did not simply perceive—he saw.Every breath, every flicker of aura, every heartbeat within the auction hall was laid bare before him as if time itself had frozen and his consciousness drifted through all corners of the space.He saw the elders behind their glass panels, the nobles trembling in their cushioned seats in the minor VIP, and even the attendants who stood frozen mid-breath, their hands slightly shaking from the immense pressure now blanketing the hall.But then—“Damn…” Oasis’s pupils shrank. “The old man noticed… and to think—he’s already at the Saint Realm.”A pulse of raw aura's might spread through the hall like an invisible storm.“Who dares…”The words struck like thunder.“Who dares try to peek at this Old Master? It seems the brats of this generation have forgotten the immen

    “1,250,000!”A calm, resonant voice thundered from Major VIP Room A9 — Grand Elder Macarov Denzai, his tone composed, like a man making a simple statement rather than a bid that could buy half a city.The entire hall trembled with the weight of his voice.Almost immediately, another voice echoed from A10, smooth and somewhat sly.“Master Denzai, this Dodo bears you no grudge, so I hope you’ll understand,” he said with a courteous chuckle. “1,300,000!”It was Dodo Yuichi, his tone light, teasing even, as though he were speaking with an old friend in jest rather than in deadly earnest competition.Then a third voice, vibrant, and brimming with mischief, rolled from A7.“Haha! Let me join in — this is getting interesting! Let’s see if the rest of you can keep up! 1,500,000 gold coins!”It was Javel, and his laughter carried a razor edge of arrogance, the kind that drew equal parts admiration and irritation.A low hum rolled through the audience — a wave of awe.Then Grand Elder Denzai’s

    “A million coins — I might as well just go home and rest,” one man muttered in the general area, the words swallowed by the charged air as he accepted his fate.He folded his arms and leaned back, resignation creasing his weathered face.Around him, low conversations fluttered like dying embers.“I’ll rather watch those above fight for it,” another whispered, eyes fixed on the stage. “They’ve probably drained their businesses to bid for that vial.Some will even hock artifacts they just bought to reach the price.” He shook his head slowly, disgust and fascination warring on his face.“Heavens know—some would sell daughters to pleasure houses for this kind of treasure.”“Don't you think people are going to die for that elixir?” a third murmured, counting in his head. “If you live outside the city, you’ll need escorts and pay a fortune to move it.Owning this vial makes you a target.”“I wonder if that kid who claims to be an elder of Lunaris even plans to leave the city,” another voice

  • Chapter 433: The Final Prize — Elixir of Eternal Youth.

    The applause still echoed like rolling thunder within the vast auction hall as attendants moved gracefully away from the stage delivering the prized dagger to Major VIP Room A5.The air was thick with chatter — nobles and merchants whispering, speculating, and gossiping about the extraordinary sale they had just witnessed as they waited for the next item. The attendants approached Room A5, then opened silently...Inside, the room glowed in warm light.Daku sat upright, his aura calm but eager, while Oasis leaned back slightly on the chair, his expression unreadable yet composed.Barrett and the rest of the Woods family observed quietly, their gazes flickering with restrained curiosity.The attendants stepped inside reverently, the dagger of repentance wrapped carefully in dark velvet that faintly shimmered.Even concealed, the weapon’s aura was palpable — dense, cold, alive.When they crossed the threshold, the room’s atmosphere thickened as if the dagger itself demanded recognition.

  • Chapter 432: A Name to be Remembered.

    In Major VIP Room A2, Duwe Sparrow’s lips twisted as he slammed his palms against the table.“That unruly brat—how dare he!” he hissed under his breath.Though his voice wasn’t projected, the venom in his tone still sliced through the quiet of their private chamber.Only his father, Jupiter Sparrow, his sister Nova, and a few nearby attendants heard his outburst.He hadn’t meant to say it aloud.Despite his earlier scolding, the words slipped from his mouth like a reflex, driven by the disbelief that some unknown youth would dare compete in a bidding war against figures like Akaina Hajin or Dodo Yuichi.His face flushed with frustration, veins visible along his neck as he struggled to maintain decorum.Nova turned her gaze sharply toward him, eyes narrowing like a hawk spotting prey.Her father, Jupiter, merely sighed and gave a single, quiet nod—a wordless command.You know what to do.Nova didn’t hesitate.She clenched her fist, and before Duwe could even realize it, her knuckles ca
