If there were an award for the most hateful guy at this year's auction, that award would undoubtedly go to Kent, the brat who was utterly detestable to everyone.
His tendency to jump into bidding wars only to end up buying items at overpriced rates was something everyone hated him for.
However, if there was something many hated more than Kent's actions, it was the idea of compromise during a bidding war. There is no such thing as compromise in a bidding war.
The war exists to ensure that only the richest emerge victorious in the end.
So when the three blacksmiths came to an agreement to buy the skull for 12 billion, people were furious.
They wanted to see a good fight, but the three chose to end it before it could escalate into something fiercer.
That was something they couldn't accept lying down.
But then, Kent jumped in, and everything turned chaotic.
