Auction

[Fair Trade Zone Established – Knight in Shining Armor Protocol Activated]

A few of the whales gasped aloud. Understandable.

This feature—Knight in Shining Armor Protocol—wasn't supposed to be discovered for at least another year in most playthroughs. Almost nobody knew it even existed yet.

In a game like Final Life Online, where a single death meant full character deletion, this was one of the game's hidden fail-safes. A secret, emergency measure buried deep in the system, designed to protect rare scenarios like mine.

It could only be triggered under very specific conditions… but if you held something valuable enough to anchor the event?

Then it worked.

And now, it had.

The towering System Knight raised his sword once again.

"Now, under my jurisdiction," he declared, his voice echoing through the golden dome, "a Fair Auction Trade shall begin. The Hidden Class Token will be sold under System Authority."
