Checking Assets

Elijah actually intended for the Kingstons, the organizers of the auction, to hear his last sentence.

It wasn't Elijah's first time attending such a secretive auction like the one today, so he knew what the greatest taboo for the organizers of such an auction was.

As soon as the guests in the auction hall saw this man, they immediately seemed astonished and began whispering among themselves.
