Chapter 306: Auction

"You!" Keia’s face instantly turned red as she realized what just happened.

"You touched me there twice now," She said as she glared at Ryder with a red face.

" And you stole twice. We’re equal now, and you still owe me one for that pinch," Ryder said as he rolled his eyes as well.

"I’ll say it too. You deserved it," he added.

"Hmph, you’re lucky we’re here or..." She mumbled to herself.

"Or what?" Ryder asked with a curious look on his face.

" Nothing," she said as she smiled cheekily.

" When you come after one week with the information I asked for, we won’t be here. Then you can show me," Ryder said to Keia.

"Hmph," Keia rolled her eyes as she shook her head.

Soon, the Ball Dance was over.

It lasted for an hour only. Ryder wondered what was going to happen next since they talked about dinner after the Ball Dance, but it was still too soon for Dinner.

As Ryder was wondering what they were going to do for the next few hours, he got his answers as the Master of the Silva Clan announced that he was going to show them some of the new medicines they had created. There was also going to be a small auction of those medicines right now, which was said to last for a few hours.

"Did you know about this?" Ryder asked Shu.

"I wasn’t told about this, and I believe no one else was either. They probably wanted to keep this auction for the ones that attended. If they had announced it before, everyone would have attended. Maybe they wanted to see who would come just to celebrate their family member’s birthday and who wouldn’t," Shu replied as he shook his head.

He was just told about the birthday celebration in the invitation and nothing about this auction, but it didn’t matter since he always carried his Black Card with him. He didn’t lack money.

"These medicines should be good. I guess it doesn’t bother me to see them at an auction since I’m already here," Shu said.

Everyone was escorted to the auction hall that was made inside the Silva Clan Mansion for private auctions long ago. This place had seen billions of dollars of exchange throughout its existence, and today was going to be another such day.

Ryder and Shu sat together as they waited for the auction to begin.

Soon, the auctioneer came on the stage who was someone from the Silva Clan but not a part of their main branch.

"Alright. I would like to welcome everyone to today’s special auction. This auction was kept a secret, and it’s only exclusive to the people that bothered to take time out of their busy schedule to attend this birthday celebration. From the Silva Family, I would like to thank you once again," The Auctioneer said as he smiled.

" Without further delay, let’s start with the first item of this event. It is one of our oldest recipes, and some of you had already brought it before since it was auctioned in previous auctions as well," he said as he gestured for a servant to bring something.

The servant came to the Stage with a tray in his hands. The tray was covered in a red cloth.

The Auctioneer removed the cloth from the tray and revealed a small glass bottle that had ten pills.

"Here, we have ten Nourishment Pills. These pills can make your body become younger by one month by rejuvenating your aging cells. Each pill can help you become younger by a month; unfortunately, you can only take one of these pills every three months. And you can only take twenty of them throughout your entire lifespan. Any more than that would be useless."

"Even though you can only take 20 of these, that is enough to make you close to two years younger, which matters a lot in some circumstances. In previous auctions, it had been one of our bestsellers," The Auctioneer explained to everyone.

" The Base price of this bottle, including Ten Nourishment Pills, is only Two Hundred Thousand Dollars. Each increment in the price can only be of fifty thousand dollars," The Auctioneer said to everyone as he smacked his wooden hammer on the stand in front of him gently, signaling the start of this trial.

" Interesting, but it’s useless for me," Shu said, shaking his head.

" Interesting pill. It must have taken a lot of research to make something like this. The Silva Clan is really interesting indeed," Ryder muttered as he looked towards the stage.

People kept bidding on the pill as it’s price kept increasing. Ultimately, it became a fight between two people. One of them was a bald man who looked to be in his seventies, while the other person seemed to be in his sixties and had a head full of white hair.

It had become a showdown between them, which managed to bring the price of the pills to five million dollars.

Ultimately, the pill was purchased by the bald man for Five Million Two Hundred Fifty Thousand Dollars.

Ryder was surprised that people spent this much just to gain ten months of their young back. Was the fear of death so bad?

What about him? He was going to be old one day as well, and he was going to die of old age. He couldn’t help but think about that time. The Old age wasn’t going to let him live, and the Bracelet of Immortality wasn’t going to let him die. He could see a painful life ahead of him where he lived his last day again and again.

He could only hope that he would find a solution to this problem as he collected more and more bracelets of immortality fragments.

The Next Item was brought on the stage, which was another pill, but this time, it was a pill for making people look younger but not actually making them younger as the last pill did.

Surprisingly, this pill was sold for even more.

In the end, this pill was sold for Eight Million Dollars. Ryder was amazed that people desired for younger looks more than they desire for younger age.

Shu once again didn’t bet since he didn’t care about looks, and he was only in his early twenties. He didn’t need anything to look younger. He already looked young enough. He wanted to look more manly instead since his chubby body made him seem more cute than manly.

Soon, the third item was brought on the stage.

"What the heck? That?" Ryder’s mouth opened wide in shock as he saw the third item.
