Three days passed quickly. On this day, the six of them arrived at the auction house's private room that was exclusive to Jessica's family. It was said that it was used to entertain guests.
Before the auction even started, there was an endless stream of people who came to visit. They were all here on Mu Jessica's life. The crown prince of this country came over. There was no such title here, but he was the only son. It was said that the emperor had married a young empress, but it was unknown whether it was because that place was no longer working. There had been no news for several years, but the battle between the prince and the empress was still very fierce.
"Jessica, we haven't seen each other for 3 years. Ever since you went to the Ice Snow Empire, I went to the Dragon Island not long after. To be honest, I was worried that you would be snatched away by those guys from Ice and Snow Empire. Although I was confident in myself, I wasn't by your side. "But now, it seems that I'm still more outstanding. I've already obtained recognition on Dragon Island and obtained a powerful Treasured Artifact there. I'm back, and now you're back. We can start over. Jessica, accept my love. Only you can be my queen.”
"Hey, Jessica, he seems to think you're his. Aren't you going to refute him?”Camille whispered into Jessica's ear.
"Didn't you always say that you're my boyfriend? Aren't you going to express your gratitude now?" The strange feeling in her ears made Jessica blush and her heart race.
The prince saw their intimate behavior and was obviously unhappy that someone else had such contact with his designated queen.
"Jessica, aren't you going to introduce us? Who was this masked friend? There were also two beautiful ladies beside him.”
"Hello, I'm Jessica's man. This is our daughter, Eve.”Camille was very satisfied with the result of his words. Except for Eve, who lifted her little skirt and made a ladylike bow, the others were all in a daze.
" I knew he was shameless, but I didn't expect him to be this shameless.'This was Jessica's inner thoughts.
"Hey, brother, when did you have a child? Didn't we meet Eve later?”At least she knew not to expose that Eve was a protected person.
"Oh, well, I didn't say that we gave birth to her. I just adopted Eve. I have to find her a mother, right, Eve?”
The little girl obviously understood. She covered her mouth with her hand and nodded with a smile.
"Your Highness, please don't listen to his nonsense, but he is indeed my boyfriend.”At this point, his voice was so low that it could not be heard." He is Camille, this is Asina, and this is Catherine.”
This was the first time he had heard Jessica acknowledge his status. To be honest, Camille was still very excited. It was quite obvious. He looked at Jessica with burning eyes, as if he wanted to melt her.
"Oh, I didn't expect you to have found someone to accompany you, even though this person doesn't seem very reliable. However, I think you still need the consent of your family. Not everyone can marry into your family. I will not give up. I believe that your family will make the right choice. As for this person, oh, right, is his name Camille? Can I ask you to give up?" This arrogant prince obviously wouldn't agree with such a thing. Instead, he was even more determined to get Jessica.
"If you can give up your throne, I might give up Jessica. How was it? Do you want to consider it?" If such a person could give up his throne, even a sow would return to the tree.
"It seems that this friend is someone who doesn't want to listen to others 'advice. Such a person can easily cause trouble for himself and might even lose his life.”
"Yes, I think so too. Such a person can easily lose his life.”Camille looked at him with a smile. Such a person could not hide his emotions and was arrogant. Could he still win the battle for the throne? Well, maybe he could talk to the empress and discuss a collaboration. Camille was evil.
Obviously, the prince understood what Camille meant. He snorted coldly, nodded at Jessica, and left. After all, Jessica didn't invite him to stay, so he wouldn't be so shameless.
Everyone quickly put this matter aside and returned to their seats to wait for the auction to begin.
However," Why are you so close to me? There are still seats over there.”
"Don't say that. I'm your boyfriend. You admitted it yourself, didn't you, Eve? You heard it, right?”
Eve nodded, still smiling.
"That, that was to get rid of him. You don't know, he used to be very clingy and always thought highly of himself.”
"I don't care. I only know that you said that I'm your boyfriend.”
"You, forget it. I'm ignoring you. Remember, don't touch me."
"How can that be? Am I that kind of person?”
"Oh? Then what are you planning to do with your hand in the air?”
"Cough, you misunderstood me. I saw that there was a little dust on your body and helped you get rid of it. I definitely didn't mean anything else.”Camille retracted his hand in embarrassment, ignoring the sneaky laughter of the three women beside him. The interaction between the two had become a form of entertainment for the three of them.
The auction began. As it was all the things that Catherine needed, everyone gave the right to speak to Catherine. Because of her profession, Catherine was also very rich, and she had Camille as her backing. However, she wouldn't use Camille's money easily, even though Camille said that it was an investment for the future Alchemists of the team.
However, today seemed to be especially unlucky. The prices of several auction items had been raised by a lot. Catherine had no choice but to give them up for the item she needed the most. Camille didn't say anything. She was an independent girl, so she didn't say anything. If he were to intervene, it would hurt her self-esteem.
"Catherine, I'm sorry. It's all because of me that that person raised the price so much.”Jessica felt a little guilty. The prince was obviously trying to get back at her.
"It's okay, Jessica. I don't need those things. I only participated in the auction because I saw that it was not bad and might be useful in the future. Besides, that person was not gentlemanly, so how could he blame it on you?”
"Yes, thank you, Catherine. I'll definitely find one for you in the future. When the time comes, I'll ask them to keep it for you.”
"That's it. You might as well tell Jessica what you might need, and then spend money to buy it from them.”
"That's right. Camillu is like this. We're all companions. There's no need to be polite.”
"Alright, I'll give you a list when we get back. When the time comes, help me collect it. When I have money, I'll come and take it.”Catherine wasn't pretentious. If she was too polite, it would affect their relationship.
"Me too." Asina usually didn't need many things.
At this moment, the thing that Catherine needed the most appeared. It was a Fusion Stone. The Fusion Stone was not a necessity for alchemy, but it was necessary to refine a top-quality item. Therefore, everyone who was determined to become an outstanding alchemist would think of a way to obtain a Fusion Stone. Moreover, they would not use it easily, but usually, the fusion stone would be of the highest grade.
"The starting bid for this fusion stone is 5000 gold coins, and each increment must not be less than 100 gold coins.”
When the price reached 50,000, Catherine also reported her price. However, the prince began to raise the price again. Catherine had no choice but to keep increasing the price. In the end, it finally exceeded her limit. The price had already exceeded 100,000. Catherine had already stopped, and there were tears in her eyes. Although Catherine often made some things to sell, she had more things to study. She always had to buy various materials for experiments. This time, she had prepared enough money, but she did not buy a single piece. This feeling of being bullied made her feel very uncomfortable.
Camille couldn't stand it anymore. He decided to help her." 110,000.”Hence, he announced a new price, which made the host, who was originally planning to hit the hammer, immediately change the location of the hammer.
A new bid began. It seemed that the other party was very happy to be able to lure Camille out. The other party immediately increased the bid by 10,000.
Of course, Camille would not do that. He only added 100 each time, and so on and so forth. In the end, when it reached 1,000,000, the other party stopped. Camille finally bought the Fusion Stone for 1,000,100 gold coins. Catherine tried to persuade him to stop, but he didn't listen. In the end, the price made Catherine scold him for being a prodigal, even though her eyes were full of smiles.
"Jessica, find out why the prince is here today.”
"You want to? I understand. Leave it to me." As he said that, he left his seat and returned after a while.
"He came for the last item, and I heard that he was determined to get it.”That was enough. However, Jessica didn't realize that she had returned to the seat next to Camille, the seat that made the two of them very close.
"Hehe, we must let him bleed today.”Camille laughed sinisterly.
The other girls were also amused, especially Catherine, who was in full agreement.
Soon, it was time for the last item. It was a pill, and it was also the masterpiece of an alchemist. Alchemists also had their own specialties, just like Catherine, who mainly focused on refining. She almost didn't know how to refine medicine, but there were also people who mainly refined medicine. They could usually refine some medicine that was helpful for cultivation. Of course, this kind of medicine was very rare. The more common ones were healing pills. The rarest of them were those that could increase the various attributes of the body. The pill in front of him was one of them. It was a medicinal pill that could increase one's mental strength--the Essence Refinement Pill. Unlike cultivation techniques that could continuously increase one's spiritual power, this kind of pill could usually directly increase one's spiritual power by 1/10 permanently, but it was not without flaws. It was difficult to control this kind of spiritual power that was directly increased by medicine. It was just that the foundation was not strong. If he could not subdue this part of spiritual power as soon as possible, it would affect his cultivation.
He didn't know if the prince intended to use it for himself or for others. Since he wanted it, Camille would make him pay the price.
"Refined Essence Pill, starting price 30,000 gold coins, each bid must be no less than 1000 gold coins.”
Alright, the prince began to bid. At this time, there was already a high price of 300,000. Camille followed suit, only outbidding him by 1000 gold coins each time. Anyway, there was still a lot of purple gold in Kameyu's amethyst card. Even if he bought it in the end, he wouldn't think much of it.
He didn't stop until the price reached 3 million and gave it to the prince who couldn't hold it in anymore. Actually, the prince did not have to buy it, but this was a matter of face. After the initial bidding, everyone knew that there was a grudge between them. Camille didn't back down just now. If he backed down now, what would others think? It was unbearable for a proud person like him.
Catherine, are you satisfied now?"
"Yes, thank you. I feel much better."
