Angel asked, embarrassed. "What is the auction house name? I didn't see it...."
Yasenia managed to exert enough willpower to liberate herself and said, her voice now sensual. "It is called [Dragoness Lair], very fitting for this one to visit~."
The others smiled while a glint flashed for a moment in Tatyana's eyes.
Suddenly, the lights dimmed, and the stage below illuminated.
On the stage below, a very sexy woman appeared. She was wearing a skimpy red "dress". They were just two tape-like clothes circling her neck and going downwards, covering her nipples and privates below; she also had a pair of red high-heels... And that's it.
Yasenia almost spluttered her water. "What is with that outfit!? She is practically naked!"
They looked at her strangely, thinking, 'You are not much better!'
Yasenia saw their looks and defended herself. "Even if I show skin, at least I have half..." Yasenia looked down and continued, "A third of my breasts hidden! And I have a miniskirt that doesn't let anybody see anything! Moreover, my back is nicely covered, and I have a long back skirt!"
Tatyana answered, "Love, we would believe you if the long skirt's material wasn't semi-transparent."
Yasenia looked down at Tatyana and pouted. Tatyana gave her a peck and said, "Listen to her, love. She will say the rules."
The woman spoke charmingly and walked around the stage, making her body jiggle. "Today we are also together~ Do you like my dress? I bought it, especially for you~."
A lot of whistles sounded, and a lot of obscenities too!
"You are the most beautiful Rose!"
"I want to have a night with you!"
"Goddess, please step on me!"
The woman laughed, which set her bountiful bosom in a constantly jiggling motion, and winked at those that said those things.
The woman, Rose, continued speaking after laughing. She licked her lips and said, "For those who don't know, my name is Rose~ Well, it is very accurate. I may be beautiful but beware of my spines~. I like handsome men and beautiful women the most; if you have confidence in yourself, come to me after the auction~ However, only if you buy something!"
She put a more professional voice and said, "The rules are like always, the auction house will set the initial price, then we only will accept a minimum increment of 10% of the initial value! If it costs 100 gold, ten gold increment is the minimum."
Rose winked. "Of course, if you want to double or triple the price, you are more than welcome~."
Rose continued, "You can use only money, we don't care if you kill the person that won something at the entrance of the Auction House, but they are completely out of reach while they are inside our building. You will be expelled from the auction if you use threats and other things while betting! Of course, you can insult or provoke each other as much as you like. Just don't use your influence to make the people give up. Many people had ignored our advice before, and well, all of them are dead! We are very proud of that achievement~."
Rose's smile became seductive as she said, "By the way, you can't bid more money than you have on yourself, and the winner will make the payment in situ. To bid, pass your jade card through the formation on your armchair, or if you are in the VIP room, pass it through the crystal on the table~."
"If you don't have a card, shouting the amount is also valid, but if we discover that you don't have the money, you will be punished depending on the amount you overstated. The rest of the rules are common sense, and they come with the catalog, so I will assume that you all have read them!"
Rose let everything sink in, and she said, jumping excitedly, which made every single person focus on her for various reasons. "We will begin! If you manage to impress me with one bid... I may come together with the item no matter your appearance~."
She stopped walking and pointed to the side, where a handsome pair pushed a table with a shiny black colored sword. "The first item is a high-level earth-ranked long sword, not too shabby. It is called [Dark Glass sword], and It is made of a special glass located in the mines from the Wicked Forest, 2200km to the east from here."
"The glass is extremely durable and sharp! If you get injured by this baby, the edge will shatter and let corroding glass shards into your skin! Scary~ It also has natural regeneration, so don't worry about losing your sword after some slashes~."
Angel was surprised, "Nice sword, especially for darkness, death, or glass attributed cultivators. A shame I use only a shield..."
Feeling that no one was interested, Yasenia asked, "Baby, your shield is a high-level earth-ranked treasure, right?"
Angel nodded. Yasenia asked, "I think I haven't seen you use what you picked up from the armory yet. Sweetheart picked her [Blue Crystal] bow, and Dear the spear [Solid Thunder], what did you pick?"
Angel said, "I picked a battle robe, but it is quite plain, so I normally wear other things."
Angel waved her hand, and pure white female cultivation robes appeared, "They are called [Radiant Robes]. They enhance my light attribute and movement technique. Thanks to the pill you gave Evelyn and me, we are now quite strong! Sadly none of our attributes mutated."
Tatyana said, "You can eat a total of five of that type of pill for each attribute; you should try to get them in the future. I was lucky enough to have my death attribute mutated, which made it useful for undead raising."
Yasenia nodded, and after making a mental note, she focused again on the stage.
After showcasing the sword effect with a dummy, Rose said, "The starting price is just 250 gold! The minimum increment will be 25 gold!"
When the bids started flying, her voice accelerated, "300 over there, 350! Do I see 400? 450! Sir, you are mighty~ Oh! Five hundred over there~ 525? 550! can we reach 575? the beauty over there says that is too low and goes for 600!..."
Her speaking speed accelerated, and, after using her charms and suggestive gestures, the final price reached 975 gold won by a cultivator on the lower stands.
Andrea was impressed. "She is very good. The price should have been 650 at most... But using gestures and calling softly, she tempted those cultivators... You can't judge a book by its cover. This saying applies perfectly to her."
Tatyana smiled, "She is truly good. She is the second-best in this auction house in terms of selling profit. She isn't afraid to even offer herself if she can make the price rise. She enjoys this kind of thrill and doesn't care if the target is a woman or man."
Yasenia said, "Mom, you know so much about her!"
Tatyana patted the big girl on her lap, "She is very famous in the Champion City. If you are handsome or beautiful, she will hit on you. Since she is very beautiful, not many resist her advances."
Yasenia asked, "Did you also have a night with her?"
Tatyana burst into laughter and kissed Yasenia; after kissing her, she asked, "Jealous?"
Yasenia shook her head, "Curious. Mom is very beautiful; she should have hit on you, right?"
Tatyana answered with a smirk, "She doesn't dare hit on your Mom."
Time passed, and Rose sold two mediocre objects, a top high-level magic-ranked bow and an earth-level cultivation scroll. One started at 20 silver and sold at 106. The other started at 400 gold sold at 1080 gold.
Rosa clapped, attracting attention, not to her hands, and said, "The next object is quite nice. It is a broken sword! What is nice then? This sword is a transcendent ranked sword! Better, the engravings are almost intact. However, the expert blacksmiths couldn't fix it, so it is just as strong as a middle-level magical treasure.
"However, the blacksmithing arts used to create this sword are quite profound. You will be able to improve your skills as a blacksmith with this item! At the owner's demand, the starting price is one crystal coin or 1000 gold! A real bargain if you tell me!"
The price started escalating fast, and soon, it reached three crystal coins! Suddenly, a mellow and charming voice echoed, "3400 gold."
Rose looked over, and when she saw Yasenia, her face lit up! "3400 for the absolutely charming woman on the VIP stand!"
Rose winked at Yasenia. With Rose's shout, many people looked upward and saw Yasenia with one hand on the edge of the balcony, supporting her chin, and looking towards the sword. They couldn't help but exclaim in their heads. 'Heavenly beauty!'
A deep voice interrupted their daze state. "3500" Yasenia looked over and saw that the bidder was the patriarch of the Tang family. Yasenia laughed charmingly, making many people go limp, and Rose licked her lips. Yasenia taunted, "I say, patriarch Tang. Was being flattened into the ground by my mother not a good enough lesson? Or is it because I killed your daughter that you will start raising all of the things I want? 3600!"
The people's eyes bulged, and Rose almost tripped. 'WHAT DID SHE JUST SAY!?'
Tang Guo answered, "Juniors nowadays dare to defy elders like this. I don't know how your mother raised you...."
Yasenia answered instantly, showing her tail through the balcony, making people know she was a beast-human. "Better than you raised your daughter who wanted to buy me and make me her slave. However, don't worry. I'm too kind, and at least her death was quick."
Tatyana almost burst into laughter at her response, 'What a face slap! That's my daughter!'
Even if her head was elsewhere, learning about unbelievable facts all of a sudden, her years of professionalism made her maintain her composure, "3600 at once... 3600 going twice... 3600 th-"
Tang Guo interrupted. "Four crystal coins. At first, I just wanted to raise the price to annoy you. However, since your mouth is so big, I won't let you buy anything today."
Yasenia smiled, and they started going back and forth with Tang Guo faster and faster.
"10 crystal coins."
"11"
"100"
"101"
"1000"
"1001"
"One mill"
Tang Guo answered instinctively, "one mill and one- Wait!"
Tatyana didn't hold it this time and let out a peal of laughter; Yasenia also laughed, making her bosom jiggle, "Hahaha, nice purchase, that scrap metal for one million crystal coins! As expected of Patriarch Tang Guo, his wealth is impressive, hahaha. It's yours! However, I was surprised when you wanted it even when I offered one thousand! You are truly determined!"
Rose thought with a beautiful smile, 'my commission will be enourmous~.'
Then she said excitedly, "One million and one crystal at once!"
Tang Guo looked at Rose and said icily, "Gold coins, they aren't crystal coins."
Rose denied him and continued, "That would be lower than your previous offer, so it isn't possible. One million and one crystal coins twice!"
Tang Guo was about to use his aura out of anger! However, Patriarch Long, Long Tian, stopped him. "Although it is a hefty sum, it still won't hurt you. Moreover, we have come for another thing to get today. Do you want to get expelled before that?"
Tang Guo's veins were popping, but he held it. However, he almost lost it when Yasenia continued, "A shame. I thought you would truly lose it and get expelled. It seems that you are smarter than your daughter."
The spectators winced, feeling their cheeks hurt for him.
Rose finished, "One million and one thrice and sold to patriarch Tang! Thank you for your patronage!"
Rose sent a beautiful smile towards Yasenia and mouthed, 'Backstage, after.' Then she winked, making Yasenia raise her beautiful straight eyebrow.
