Chapter 45 The Auction

"Miss Grace, I need some practice methods of healers. Do you have it here?"

Locke didn't forget the task system, so he decided to buy some books about the practice methods of healers.

After thinking for a while, Rosaline replied, "The practice methods of healers are relatively rare. At present, there are only two books of level 1 in the treasure pavilion in Bone City. Higher-level practice methods need to be transferred from other places."

"Miss Grace..."

"Call me Rosaline, Locke."

Looking at Locke, Rosaline smiled.

Locke didn't feel restrained and said directly, "Rosaline, I'll buy the two books about the practice methods of the healers. If the high-level practice methods of the healers arrive, I'll ask my men to buy them."

"Are you going back?"

Rosaline asked curiously when she heard Locke's tone.

Locke nodded and replied, "Have a rest for one night at Bone City. I'm going back."

Knowing that Locke was leaving, Rosaline felt a little regretful. Suddenly, something occurred to her. She smiled and invited, "The treasure pavilion will hold an auction tomorrow evening. I wonder if you are interested in attending it."

"An auction?"

He had never attended an auction since he came to this world. Thinking of this, Locke nodded, "Okay, I will attend it on time tomorrow."

"I'm looking forward to your coming."

Rosaline said with a smile.

The two of them took another sip and went downstairs.

Coming downstairs, Locke was stunned to see Athena and others.

Asclepius's hands were already full of objects, and Hephaestus was also carrying various bags, both of them are a look of helplessness.

As for Athena, she was still standing in front of a pastry cabinet, seeming to be hesitating about which one to buy.

Sure enough, girls were born to be crazy about shopping, and even gods were no exception. Looking at the two of them, Locke couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

When Asclepius saw Locke as if he saw a helper, he asked in surprise, "Locke, is everything done? Is it time to go?"

Looking at this appearance of Asclepius, Locke laughed, and after glancing at Rosaline, he introduced to several people, "This is Rosaline Grace."

Locke introduced Athena and the others to Rosaline.

"Hello, everyone. Just call me Rosaline."

Rosaline greeted Athena and others with a smile.

"Hello, Rosaline."

Asclepius and Hephaestus smiled, while Athena nodded slightly as a greeting.

Rosaline also nodded slightly to Athena, showing no dissatisfaction on her face.

"Boy, good job."

Asclepius came up to Locke, showing a look that all men understand. But he just finished his words, he felt a very cold gaze.

Turning around, Asclepius saw Athena looking at him calmly, but he was sure that there was a chilling coldness deep in her eyes, which made him scared.

Although it was the second time that Rosaline had seen Athena, Rosaline still was a little shocked. Perhaps, in front of this girl, all women would be dejected.

Rosaline smiled bitterly in her heart. She didn't expect that she, the daughter of a count would feel self-abased one day.

"Let's go."

Athena glanced at Rosaline lightly and turned to Locke. After saying that, Athena walked out of the treasure pavilion.

Asclepius shrugged his shoulders and went out with Hephaestus both carrying things.

After saying goodbye to Rosaline quickly, Locke followed them.

"Locke Capet"

The anger on Viscount Yallman's face froze and he couldn't believe it.

Wasn't Locke Capet a loser? How could he hurt Church, who was an apprentice mage?

"Yes, it's Locke Capet. He is now the fire mage of level 1!" Another guard of Church said in a trembling voice.

Hearing the guard's report again, Viscount Yallman trembled and finally believed it.

Lying on the bed, Church struggled for a while and then said intermittently, "Father, let's end this matter in this way. We don't want to provoke Locke Capet."

He had already had a psychological shadow over Locke.

Hearing what he said, Viscount Yallman kept silent for a long time. Finally, he sighed and nodded helplessly. His family couldn't afford to offend the promising level-1 mage.

On the other side, when they knew that the person who released the magic in Lebon Hotel was a mage, all the aristocrats were shocked. The loser they laughed at had become a mage!

Most of the aristocrats of Bone City were born with noble titles from their ancestors, and some families didn't even have a mage.

In the past, they just wanted to find a sense of existence to satirize Locke. Now that they knew that Locke had become the mage of level 1, they were totally low profile and didn't dare to speak ill of Locke.

Were those businessmen telling the truth? Did Locke Capet take people to kill those bandits? But the bandit teams had level-2 mages and Locke was a level-1 mage. How could he be a match for the bandits? Or... Was there any other powerful practitioner behind Locke Capet!

Thinking of this possibility, the hearts of the nobles twitched fiercely.

Locke and the others returned to the post house. In the evening, Locke invited actively Athena to go shopping and enjoy the night view of Bone City.

On the second day, they strolled around the city for the whole day. In the evening, Locke and Athena came to the auction house of the treasure pavilion. As for Asclepius and Hephaestus, they went to some tavern in the city for drinking happily.

As soon as Locke arrived at the door, Judd came out and welcomed the two people in.

The auction hall had three floors, which were enough to accommodate hundreds of people.

On the first floor, there were some common seats arranged intensively, and on the second floor, there were several independent tea seats. On the third floor, there were more than 10 private rooms.

Judd took Locke and Athena to the third floor directly.

"Mr. Capet, this is a level-1 mage at such a young age. You are young and promising!"

A middle-aged man in a black robe said with a smile when he saw Locke and others in the corridor on the third floor.

"Sir Castellan!"

Looking at the middle-aged man in a black robe, Judd bowed.

"Hello, Mr. Donahue."

Locke performed etiquette between mages. Before coming to Bone City, he knew that the other party was a level-2 mage.

Donahue nodded with a smile and said to Locke, "If you are free, you can come to castellan mansion."

"Sure."

Locke nodded with a smile.

After greeting Donahue, Locke also came to the private room.

It was a well-decorated room. Sitting there, one could see the situation on the whole auction site.
