Lady Seraphine wanted to strangle Zen's neck for making this auction house like his bitch.

Causing chaos whenever he felt like it or disrupting the auction bidding and conducting an alchemist face-off challenge against someone.

Still, she smiled bitterly as she bowed slightly at Zen. After all, she had to take into account that Zen rescued her predicament on the Hymn of Death grimoire.

"Returning to the topic, Daphne Camellia has bid 93 million spirit stones for the amplifying orb. Are there any other bidders?" Lady Seraphine announced and prayed that there is no more detour.

She wanted to get this annual auction over with since nothing is going in the way she expected.

Nothing was smooth and there was a bumpy road every time Zen decided to open his mouth.

Meanwhile, Zen laid back on the couch again as he looked at Evie who had her eye closed.

Waiting a few moments, Evie opened her eyes with a solemn expression. 

"It seems like their scheme is bigger than I thought," Evie said with her eyebrows wrinkled.

"What have you discovered?" Zen asked solemnly when he saw the dreadful look on Evie.

"We'll have to leave as soon as possible when you obtain your desired item," Evie said as she continued.

"I detected multiple formations hidden in every corner when I used my magic sense and those are extremely rare. The formation is a teleportation array and I'm pretty sure whatever the location is, they will definitely not be something wonderful."

Zen began to ponder and decided to inform Krista Dragoon about this discovery.

They were now allies so if something happened to them because they stayed in the dark then it wouldn't benefit him in any way.

"I'm going to Krista Dragoon's room for a while to let her know. At the same time, I'm going to try to investigate secretly so please bid for me when they're auctioning the Soul Replenishing Herb." Zen said seriously and continued.

"Remember, you must bid at all costs. I don't care if the price becomes ridiculous, I'm determined to get it, Evie." 

Evie was slightly shocked at Zen being so serious at something for once. 

"It seemed like this Soul Replenishing Herb is very important to you. Is it related to a woman?" Evie asked, hitting the mark directly.

Zen flinched a bit but nodded his head in acknowledgment. "Yes, it's for an extremely important woman in my life. I care more about her than my own life."

Angela was a bit depressed when she heard Zen's declaration of the importance of a woman that is not her.

Evie also had a bitter taste in her mouth but didn't say any more words since Zen left the room already.

"You don't seem angry despite knowing your man cared about another woman." Evie turned around and asked Angela.

Angela chuckled softly before saying, "Although I'm a bit sad that he cared about someone more than me. I'm already grateful that he gave me some love and is doing his best to cure my mother's illness."

"Your mother's illness? But you're an elf and it's impossible for an elf to be sick." Evie narrowed her eyes suspiciously as she stared at Angela.

"Yes, my mother may be an elf and it should be impossible to be sick. But this is something related to her bloodline and only Zen knew how to cure her." Angela replied without hiding any details.

Angela was smart and knew if Evie wanted to pry into her secret, she could simply order her intelligence agency to conduct an investigation.

At that time, Evie would know everything but their trust would remain the same or even stagnant a bit.

Angela would rather tell her the truth now to gain her trust. 'Since Zen is not here then it should be my duty to help maintain our relationship to be as close as possible.'

Evie smiles a bit to see Angela being honest with her. "Seems like that lecherous brat truly has a lot of charm in his luck."

Angela became embarrassed a little as she hurriedly replied, "He is much more than some charming man. Zen may be a lustful person and even love taking advantage of someone. He actually cares a lot despite not showing it out."

Angela defended Zen's honor and decided to explain what she knew about him more to Evie.

Thus, the conversation between these two women has centered around Zen who is currently in Krista Dragoon's room.

"If what you say is the truth then this is a big problem?" Krista Dragoon exclaimed when she heard Zen's discovery.

"You know something about this?" Zen was surprised that Krista Dragoon had a hint about the formation.

Krista Dragoon nodded slowly while Leila Dragoon was calling out the bid for the amplifying orb in her stead.

"Recently, we heard about a Demon Lord that is on the rise and has started creating havoc in multiple towns. It's rumored that his 10 loyal servants have created multiple labyrinths full of monsters in it." Krista Dragoon said solemnly and wondered if the Scarlet family is in cahoot with the Demon Lord now.

Zen didn't know things would escalate this far when all he wanted to do was come to this auction house and leave right away.

'It seemed like this world is always playing a joke on me,' Zen complained inwardly when he always had to deal with these difficult situations.

While Zen was busy trying to think up a solution to this dreadful situation, Leila Dragoon suddenly shouted in excitement as she had finally won the amplifying orb against Daphne Camellia because she lost interest in it.

Though the price came to an astounding 200 million spirit stones, in the end, Leila Dragoon was cheerful that she did something useful for her sister.

"Sister Krista, I won the amplifying orb," Leila Dragoon said blissfully as she lowered her head slightly, indicating that she wants a pat on the head.

Krista Dragoon shakes her head at this little sister of hers as she pats her head lightly.

At the same time, Lady Seraphine announced the next item, "Over here is the Soul Replenishing Herb and is known as the best herb to recover one soul's power. This is a must-get item for all mages because this herb would be able to enhance their mana core to a new height."
