Cadenza didn't stay at the nightclub for long and immediately went towards the auction room.

The auction room in the underground floor was different from those expensive auction rooms. Each guests/bidders had their own private room where there's a huge hologram screen displayed infront of them where the 'items' are being displayed and an assistant is assigned in each room to assist their clients as they decided to raise their bid.

The auction has already started a long time ago and it's still has a numerous amounts of 'items' to sell. These 'items' were carefully chosen to suite rich people's taste and of course very valuable making them pay fortunes in a single bid.

"Next item.. a white sand island near Dione (one of the right sectors) rich with corals and various fishes with its crystal clear waters it is a very good spot to build a resort and for tourist attraction....the bidding starts with 100 million" the auctioneer spoke with his smooth yet convincing tone.

The screen shows the image of the whole island with its size and location. It is indeed a very good spot to build a resort after the starting bidding price was announced many bidders has started to raise it's value.

120 million

125 million

173 million

.....

"475 million sold!"

"This smooth Jade hairpin once belonged to Countess Libra who was once known in the Zeiferie kingdom as the most richest person and for her collection of jewelries that women wore in every different countries... The bidding price starts at 7 million"

Who wouldn't know the famous Countess Libra? As written in the history of Zefiere kingdom she was an only child of a very wealthy count so she was spoiled to the core. She was engaged to a son of an another count after they got married they found out she was infertile eventually their marriage fell apart with her husband cheating with a mistress. What Countess Libra did has marked history after she found out her husband's love affair she poisoined him and gave him aphrodisiac then she hired a bunch of prostitutes and made him have sex till the poison slowly killed him.

The mistress didn't suffer a less horrifying death she was poisoned with an itching powder that made her scratch her face till her skin peeled off, the mistress's once beautiful appearance was destroyed to the point that even the most ugliest person would be placed second, not only her face was destroyed the Countess even ordered that the mistress's face should be wrapped with a bag and threw her in a cell filled with criminals.

Countess Libra then lived a life with fortune with her family's wealth and her husband's she drowned herself with luxury. When her crimes were found out she killed herself beforehand, she was found lying in her bed filled with beautiful red roses and dressed with her most favourite gown it was as if she was caught sleeping soundly.

She knew she would be thrown into a stinky cell in a and let her rot for a few days before she would be decapitated in front of everyone while being labeled as a criminal so she decided to end her life as a 'Countess'.

Countess Libra scattered her own wealth for those who coveted her mountains of riches could only dream of having it.

"50 million sold!"

You know you're with rich people if they bought a single hairpin with 50 million. The jade hairpin was carved with detailed designs making it very lovely and valuable Cadenza guessed it was bought by a wealthy madam who take fancies antique jewelries.

Each of Countess Libra's jewelries costs mountains of fortune now that it has become antique naturally it's value increases and so it's price.

Cadenza knew very well since she possess quite a handful of Countess Libra's jewelries. It was all thanks to Countess Libra's fortune that the whole Kuznetsov family prospered.

It was a hidden fact that Countess Libra adopted a servant boy in the eyes of people that boy was nothing but a servant yet it wasn't the case. The Countess knew that even if she hid her fortune after time passes by people will still discover her wealth so might as well find someone to inherit it.

That little servant boy was a hidden genius each lessons that the Countess taught him he absorbed it well, he was very obedient, quiet yet very sly. If the Countess had a child she wanted her child to be like him.

After the death of the Countess that servant boy murdered everyone in the mansion including each of the Countess's close confidants and faked his own death in that way all those people that wanted Countess Libra's wealth would be caught in a dead end.

With no one that knows a single tiny clue about the Countess's wealth then no one could find it. Then that little boy changed his name as Cornelius Kuznetsov the founder of the Kuznetsov family.

"Next 'item'.....this fine yo fung lady has an exquisite face and an alluring body. This beauty is still a virgin bidding price starts with 15 million!"

"30 million"

"34 million"

"45 million"

The price starts to sky rocket each second that passes Cadenza stared emotionlessly in the screen watching the sobbing girl with no interest.

The girl was 18-19 years old dressed in a thin layer of clothing her hands and feet tied with a chain even with her sobbing face she looked alluring and pure.

This is exactly what Cadenza wanted a perfect 'tool'.

"150 million" Cadenza spoke in a serious tone.

The assistant immediately entered Cadenza's bidding price.

"150 million! Going once....going twice....sold!"

Cadenza stood up in her and was about to leave the room when the assistant lowered his head and spoke.

"Young lady there's still many 'items' that will be sold this evening that you might get interested are you sure you want to leave?"

"This one is enough" Cadenza replied in a cold tone.

The young lady earlier was brought into the most expensive room in the hotel which is the room Cadenza was currently resting. Still wearing her mask Cadenza faced the young girl with a cold welcome.

Her gaze traveled into the young girl's body which is only covered with a thin piece of cloth. A dissatisfied look appeared in Cadenza's eyes.

"Give her a blanket" Cadenza spoke coldly.

The young girl covered herself with a blanket that was handed to her, her whole body was engulfed with warmth yet her heart is still uneasy to what kind things she would face in any second.
