In the dim lighting, the crow brooch on my chest gleams a dark red reminiscent of wine. After some twists and turns, I finally got the brooch from Sylus. He kept his promise and agreed to help me obtain the Aether Core.With an expensive dress and dazzling jewelry, my reflection in the mirror is strange yet sufficiently alluring.

"It suits you."Another figure enters the mirror's reflection.
Sylus leans lazily against the doorway. "No one can stay wary when there's a beauty walking around."

"Hmph, this beauty will bash your skull sooner or later." | turn around and walk up to scrutinize him.

"You're just going to waltz right into a dangerous auction without a plan?"

"I like how you assume I didn't make one.Find a way to make everyone lower their guard first. Then lure out the ones with ill intentions and get rid of them.Then I'll cover you when you fetch the Aether Core's other half."

"That's it?"

"It won't fail promise" Sylus gives me another once-over. I angrily take his outstretched hand and walk out the door with him.
"You better not be a liability later."

To deal with the real masterminds behind the auction, I can only ally myself with someone deadlier than the enemy.All the information l've gathered has created an intricate web of conspiracies.Now it's time to tear it up.In the sky, the stars are devoured by an endless darkness.The Deepspace Tunnel is silent, seemingly frozen in time.
Suddenly, there's a thud, a pulse resembling a heartbeat. Cosmic dust silently fills the air. Something penetrates the invisible barrier...
And slowly opens its eyes.

We head to the hotel to see a lot of people there "It's not too late to back out now if you want to." Sylus offer his arm to me.

I take it "Focus on yourself first. Stay frosty. It's showtime." We walked to see portocores everywhere One, two, three guys... That's quite the ambush. "Sylus, are you sure they'll bite?"

"It depends on your performance."

"Mr. Sylus, we've been expecting you." A server said to him.
Sylus looks at me and gives me an ear peice "I assume you already know how to act as good bait. I'll be back soon. Have fun." He hands over a card as I take it.

He leaves me as I looked at the protocores These are ordinary Protocores.Good thing they aren't bombs. Something's off about this one... Was it tampered with?"

A server walks up to me "Did anything cätch your eye, Miss?
There are even better ones on that side."

"The stuff you have is pretty mediocre." I said then I touched my emsee you sara, Sys, it's okay for me to purchase a few

"Don't bother me with such trivial matters." He said in a grouchy tone.

I pointed at the sparking protocore "I'll take this for one million.
Please wrap it up for me."

"Five million." He said in the earpiece.

"Why?" | asked.

"Your offer will make people think I'm broke. Wouldn't want that sweetie."

Oh he doesn't want that huh In that case, I won't hold back. "I changed my mind. Ten million! Are these all the Protocores you got?
I'll buy everything!"

"Pompous" | heard Sylus said in the earpiece.

I fucking hopes he's broke by the time this is over.
