It took me a while to arrive at the inner part of the city. The process of entering was much more tedious than entering the middle layer. I was still being followed, and it was starting to get on my nerves.
Walking in the area seemed like this was part of a different town. Everything was cleaner here, and the buildings looked like they were newly made with a hint of expensive materials.
Searching for something to do, I saw an advertisement for an upcoming auction house. Apparently, today was the day when it would start. I didn't want to miss such an event, so I went around and searched for the auction house.
It didn't take long for me to find it. "Dawn Creed Auction House." The sign said. "The person who names this place must be a narcissist for naming everything about them," I muttered quietly.
"You're not wrong about that." I could hear a voice beside me. Hearing someone talk, I looked at the person talking to me. It seemed like she was the one who replied to me.
"Oh! I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Fay. Nice to meet you." She gave me a smile that seemed a little off to me. Fay looked like someone from my age. She had perfectly nice long white hair. Her eyes were green as an emerald making her captivity to look at. Her body was fit and well indulged like any woman I came across.
"I'm Charlie." I didn't know her, so I told her the bare basic of my name.
"Are you here for the auction? I'm here alone, so why don't we go together?" I didn't know why, but something about her seemed challenging to deal with. I could just refuse and go alone, but I felt that would make it much more troublesome.
"Are you thinking of going alone? Won't that be boring? Let this little sis accompany you!" I looked at her weirdly. To call herself "little sis" to someone she had just met was a little too pushy.
I sighed to myself, hearing her talk. I talked because it might be hard to get rid of her. "Sure, let's go in." Having to say that, we walked into the building.
"What year are you at the academy? I'm seventeen and will attend school next year. I'm going to be your junior. Please take care of me when I get there." I don't know why but I felt she was having fun saying whatever came to her mind.
Keeping the conversation alive, "I'm a first-year student and don't worry, I will take care of you "personally." I tried to sound as sarcastic as I could.
"Don't worry, senior! I will stick close to you!" I groaned inside, hearing her say that.
Entering the building, there were bodyguards guarding the entrance. "Do you have a pass to enter?" Did we need a pass to enter? Even if I had money, it is not like I should just spend it needlessly on things that I don't need.
"Here my pass, she with me!" Fay cheerfully showed her pass. The guards then proceed to get out of the way and let us pass.
"Fufufu! Senior, you don't have a pass, right? Since I let you in without a problem, you owe me one!" I had no right to deny that. My eyes twitched with annoyance, but she was right. Otherwise, I would've done an extra process just to get in.
"Senior! Do you know what's in the auction? Is there anything that you're interested in buying? If so, what are you going to buy?" Sheesh, calm down, why don't you?
"I just came here to check if there was anything that I wanted. I don't particularly know what there is to this auction." I was just checking out if anything was interesting in this auction. Otherwise, I wouldn't have come here.
"I see, then, senior, you're in for a surprise!" My eyes widened hearing her words. A surprise, you say? I hoped there would be a surprise; otherwise, my hopes would be demolished if nothing happened after hearing that.
"I hope there will be a surprise."
"Don't worry, I won't disappoint you!" She gave me a cheeky smile listening to me say that.
Going to our seats, we were somewhere on a VIP seat. Was she from an influential family? I don't think it was right for me to ask since she did me a favor.
Sitting in our seats, it looked like it would be a while before the auction started. Fay would keep asking me questions about myself. They weren't too personal, so I didn't mind answering them.
From talking, time had passed, and the auction was about to begin. A woman in her twenties came out and introduced herself.
"Good day, everybody! My name is Jennifer, and I will be your today's host!" There could be countless men that cheered from her introduction. She was the definition of a woman if you were to define one. She had insane curves in everybody that one would need.
"Look at these people, cheering for something so stupid." You would think Fay would be jealous saying that, but instead, I could see her laughing her ass off. She found them entertaining instead of seeing them like dirt.
I didn't have much of an opinion about them. I wasn't so desperate for a girl that I would need to cheer for one.
"Today's auction is special, and I know that some of you are anticipating the featured item today!" Hype could be seen in her words. Many people were cheering, hearing something special was coming.
Seeing that everyone was excited about this "special" item, my anticipation had also reached its all-time high. Even back where I lived, I had never seen this many excited people. I wasn't much of an outdoor guy, but it was refreshing to see something new.
"Without a further a do, let's begin this auction!"
