Primordial energy was the origin of the universe and also the purest energy there was.
However, it was also extremely rare to come across. Especially in such a world.
Most, if not all of it had been amassed by the gods, celestials, Demons and Devils of the nether realm.
However, Since his coming into this world, Eros had sensed it a series of times. All of which had been very significant events.
Of course, it had all surrounded the Anchor stones.
Now, he was feeling a trace of it again from the tablet.
This immediately sparked his interest.
Then again, anything with Primordial energy in this world was bound to capture his interest.
Since this was an auction, he did not mind getting the Tablet for himself.
He immediately sent specific instructions to Dan concerning the tablet.
However, he was not the only one that had his eyes on the tablet.
The moment the tablet made its appearance, the men with masks in hiding all moved.
Eros instantly knew that it was because of the Tablet.
Primordial energy was the most valuable substance there was in the world. An item that contained it was definitely of that value equivalence.
Eros immediately moved.
...........................
Viscount and clown were in charge of the assault on this place. However, all were in truth following her orders because Viscount knew this place like the back of her hand, after all, she had history here. Also, Clown was not part of this attack. He had a different job to accomplish.
They had come for a particular treasured item.
They had come for the the Emperor's Tablet.
However, they had been very patient with their plans.
Firstly, they had killed off all the guards in the immediate vicinity. This was easy because Viscount Peter had assigned his truly strong guards all around the items to be auctioned, and the guests. This meant that only those second rate guards were left to secure the Perimeter.
After this, they had waited in hiding for when the Tablet was most vulnerable to slippery hands.
In this case, that was when the Tablet was out on stage for the bidding.
Immediately, they moved.
However before them was a figure in full black clothes. He had a black mask on his face that looked like a monster from the Legends.
If Viscount was to put a finger on it, then she would have to say that he looked like a Dragon.
This sparked a certain thought in her head.
However, she was not exactly sure.
Eros alone stood before Viscount, and the rest of her counterparts.
Viscount looked around. She had given the order for them to move immediately.
However, those that now stood with her were just bit over hundred.
It was nothing like the numbers they had come with.
This meant that something most have happened to them.
She took a look at the man with the Black dragon mask in front of her. Her instincts told her to be careful.
As she checked Eros out, Eros also checked her out.
Even though Viscount was in a tight black body suite, her proportions were not blind to his eyes.
He traced her up and down, side to side. He examined her curves and cuts like he had home work to do on them. Even the burst was in the range of his scrutiny.
Eros hand been with and seen thousands of women. Each had their own body type and proportions.
In fact, many were very similar, but in the eyes of the god of lust and love, there were as different as the distinction between day and night.
Also, he had never for once forgotten those precious body sizes.
The one before him, was exactly the one he had examined not so long ago on that hill that was located just outside his home.
The moment he saw her, he knew she was the one.
Yes! she was the one that had fired at Him that day, and the time before that one at his manor. She had killed 'A Hundred faces'.
This meant that she had wounded his butler.
Eros frowned at this. this woman before him was the person he was looking for.
Even as he stood before her, every part of him wanted to teach her a lesson.
Eros was a person that always protected his own. If he could not do that, then revenge was in other.
At first, he was only going to interrogate them about attacking Viscount's Peter's birthday party.
However, things had suddenly become more personal.
Slowly, lightning sparks crackled from his body like firecrackers at a new years celebration.
The lightning started slow, but it soon climbed steadily.
lightening sparks went about his body.
The moment Viscount saw this, she frowned. She remembered the description of the person her little sister Bunny had told her of the person that wounded her with his soul energy.
She had not been sure at first, but the moment the lightening went about Eros, she was sure it was him.
"Black lightening Dragon! After what you did to my sister, It is nice to see that you brought yourself to Your death!"
Eros on the other hand raised a brow at this.
"Black Lightning Dragon!?" Eros was surprised by the name she had called him.
One of the men in a mask wanted to attack, however, Viscount stopped him, "this one is mine!" She muttered fiercely as she rushed at him.
Immediately, she moved, so did Eros.
Meanwhile, within the Auction room, the bidding war for the Emperors tablet was at hand.
When the Tablet was brought out, young master Jan that had fainted in the Luxury box woke up.
This was it. This was what he had been after the entire time.
"ladies and gentlemen, we are starting the Bid for the Emperors tablet at 100 gold coins." The Auction master informed, "So do i hear a 101 gold coins!?"
"150 gold coins!" Young master Jan immediately voiced out.
"200 gold coins!" Dan voiced out after him.
Young master Jan looked over the luxury box.
He was surprised to see that it was the same teenage boy from the last time.
This heavily infuriated him fiercely.
But he was not going to lose this time around. His Father had given him access to a lot of money just to secure that Tablet.
"300 gold coins!" he screamed again.
"500 gold coins!!!"
A loud scream was heard. This was not the familiar voice that competed with him. Young master Jan looked in the direction that the voice had come from.
Dan also looked in that direction.
It was a lavishly dressed gentleman. He had his legs folded one on top another. He had a wine in his hand that was decorated with fine rings of different colors.
However, he did not drink the wine. Not that he could anyway. Not with that Clown face mask covering his face.
Dan looked at him, and he instantly had a bad feeling about this.
However, that was not going to stop him from Bidding.
"1000 Gold Coins!" Dan voiced out.
"1500 Gold Coins!" Young master Jan voiced out.
"2000 Gold Coins!" The man in a clown mask voiced out.
Meanwhile, as the prices for the Tablet went up Baron Bolos sat not too far away. He had smiles on his faces.
He was the person that submitted the tablet for Auctioning.
Nobles were always in love with antiques.
It was a zeal they had that showed the status of their excessive wealth.
All nobles had this built deep within their bones.
The Tablet had been in his family for many generations. It was of no use to him, and he needed the money for other important matters. it was only fair to sell to who so ever would take it.
However, he had thought that it would only sell for at most 500 gold coins. However, what he was seeing blew his mind.
The Bidding had just started and the price was already up to 2000 gold coins. His children by his side also had smiles on their faces.
"3000 Gold Coins!" Dan screamed.
"4000 Gold Coins!" the Clown man screamed back.
Young master Jan looked to the scholar by his side for confirmation. The Scholar nodded at him and he screamed again.
"5000 Gold coins!"
Every other person in the hall kept quiet as they watched these three spend their money about the place.
Dan frowned, "do these two think I'm joking? I will show them what this young master can do!?" he thought to himself.
"10,000 gold coins!"
"HUH!!!" the crowd gasped.
Young master Jan almost vomited blood when he heard that amount.
He turned to the scholar by his side, but the scholar shook his head. This was an indication that he was to shut up and not bid more.
However, the Scholar had his eyes on the man in a Clown mask.
"10,000 Gold coins going once! going twice!! And so..."
*SLUSH!*
Before the Auction master could give the last word, a glass blade darted through his neck. Blood sprayed out in all directions.
