Auction

Sung Jin-Woo POV

I came to the beast glades to check on how The Iron Body monarch's group was doing. Because when Arthur finished his bargaining with Cynthia The Iron Body Monacrh reported to me that there was a lot of mutated, and corrupted beast that appeared, hence he cut them all down leaving the normal ones alive. As it took nearly an entire day to revive the monsters, because of how scattered they were, and I didn't want to leave any evidence yet.

"Jin-Woo" Seris's voice rang inside my head

"Yeah?" I replied

"I just got reports that hundreds of thousands of mutated, and corrupted beasts were let out into the beast glades," She said

"I've already dealt with the majority of them" I replied as I was certain that they could miss some

"All right and the Vritra bloodied child in Darv I'm sorry but I still can't gather any information about him" She added her voice depressed

"It's all right I doubt he'll be a big trouble" I replied

"But we can never be too careful, I'll try to find the boy myself too," I said

"I understand. They are starting to send radical groups to infiltrate academies to destroy them from the inside" She then continued her report

"Are they attending using Vritra mana arts?" I asked

"No they're using Dicathen mana arts when attending the academies" She replied

"All right I'll see what I can do" I replied

"That's all I have to report," She said

"Ok thanks" I replied as I continue my walk in the dungeon

I finished what I came for, so I returned to the manor. When I opened the door I was greeted by the face of familiar people. The twin horns, as I opened the door all of them had their gaze on me, at first everyone was confused about who I was, but Arthur introduced me.

"Guys this is my traveling companion I've told you about. Sung Jin-Woo" He said

"It is a pleasure to meet you all," I said as I gave a slight bow

We then proceeded to have a chat and talked about Arthur's journey, and activities from Elenoir. We tried to not mention that his teacher was the former king, and what surprised them the most was telling them his mana core stage. We wanted as few people as possible about the Dragon's will.

"Most people would be bragging the fact that they have a dragon's will, and bond" I heard Sylvia say

"Yes and most people would be greedy" I replied

As we dove deeper into the talks, I didn't say much since even I rarely do conversation with a bunch of people.

"Ah that was some story, and you to experience it at such a young age" Helen said as she patted Arthur's head

"It seems like it's getting late we should prepare for tomorrow" Helen continued

"Tomorrow?" I asked curious

"The Helstea auction" She replied

The next day the manor was very busy, as maids scrambled around the manor, and guards ran in and out. It seems like the auction is popular I thought

"Well might as well help out while we're here," Ash said

"Your right," I said as I let out a small group of shadows around the manor

I was also thinking about putting shadows on the guests, but I didn't bother with guests who didn't have mana or were weak. As I strolled around the auction building I was already dressed in a black suit, black shirt, long black jeans. Then after looking around the building I returned to the manor and walked with the others to the auction building.
