Skill Resource Consumption: 200 mana,

Skill Cooldown Time: 30 Seconds.]

Adrian's eyes widened, not expecting to see that the skill he spent so much effort trying to find would appear in the auction. He was so happy that his face was visibly grinning, which made the one who made a fool of him scared even more.

Lilia didn't delay as she could see that all the people around her were able to see the value of this skill.

"For this skill book, the minimum is 2 gold with a minimum excrement of 50 silver. Now, start! "

"3 gold."

Adrian immediately bid, as he needed this skill very much as a necromancer. For the time being, his summons were only skeleton warriors and zombies, which are the basic skills of a necromancer.

It was a must for him to be able to summon a skeleton knight to build an undead legion, as the skeleton knight could stand as a general in the legion. He was overjoyed to get this at such an early stage, but his face distorted as someone else bid as well.

"3 gold and 50 silver."

Cyclone bid for the skill book, which made Adrian confused and immediately said,

"Cyclone! You're a berserker. How can you benefit from this skill? Come on, give me some face. "

Adrian glared at Cyclone while saying that, but Cyclone rebuked him.

"You're not just the only necromancer in the game, you're just the first, but that didn't mean other players couldn't be necromancers too."

"4 gold."

Adrian greeted his teeth as he increased his bid as he couldn't rebuke it.

"6 gold."

Adanella didn't let the fun pass as she also entered the bidding war. Adrian glared at her as he could tell that she was totally making things hard for him. However, Adanella just smiled wickedly with her beautiful face.

"Hey both of you! Or just give this to me and give me some face, or I won't spare you until I destroy your guild, you treasure. "

He threatened them, but they both only shrugged it off. Both guildmasters were confident enough that they could resist his Immortal guild even if their ranking was lower as they were also first-rate guilds.

The bid was raised until it reached 50 gold, which made Adrian's face turn red as the two of them were making fun of him. He didn't lack the funds, but for him, the humiliation was unbearable. He swear that he would make them pay as he would annihilate them all.

Reaching the cap with 60 gold, Lilia sold the item to Adrian. However, Adrian was not happy as he held an intense grudge against the two guildmasters.

60 gold in the early stages of the game was already a large amount of money as the money exchange wasn't yet open to limit the ability to purchase items in Tensura. It would only be available if the average player had reached level 30.

That meant all players had to make money in the game through hunting and selling within Tensura without relying on their real cash. 60 gold coins was equivalent to 6,000 silvers or 600,000 bronze as bronze coins were the drops of the common monsters.

That means the guild masters have to mobilize the whole guild to amass that amount of money. Losing 60 gold, which he could only buy with 16 gold, made him very angry.

Lilia didn't waste time as she presented the next.

"As I could see that everyone was having a good time, I will now present the final item. I'm sure this weapon won't let you down, as this item is far superior to the previous one, so expect much from it."

Lilia said as she unveiled an axe. All eyes widened at seeing the appearance of it. They could feel it was epic as they could also sense an aura from it.

Restriction: Level 30 Warrior.]

like a nuclear bomb that was dropped. All the players were shocked to see it. A battle axe that could heal was so amazing in their eyes.

Out of thousands of players in the auction hall, half of them instantly stood up. The axe with a shocking appearance had attributes a hundred times better than its appearance.

Cyclone stood up as he was amazed at it as he could see it was perfect for him as a berserker. Berserkers are warriors who fight and get stronger the more their HP decreases. With that axe, if his HP hit the bottom. One could use the axe's ability to stay alive.

Cyclone swore to obtain the item as he thought he would be invincible against the same level if he had that axe. Adanella was also the same as her class is a weapon specialist, which is a warrior that freely uses every kind of weapon. All they should do is rush to level 30 to be able to equip the axe already.

All the players thought the same thing.

"I must have it. With that, I will have the confidence to be in the top 10 in the rankings. Maybe I could even surpass Player Zephyr. "

All the players begin to breathe faster as their heartbeat increases. The guildmasters immediately contacted their men to prepare money, as none of them had the intention of letting such a good weapon pass by.

Seeing the audience's anticipation, Lilia did not make them wait.

"The starting price is 20 gold coins, with a minimum excrement of 5 gold coins. There is no limit to the bid. Auction Start!"

"25 gold."

"30 gold."

"35 gold."

"50 gold! Who dares to bid will face the wrath of Red Lotus. "

"60 gold! The Serpentine Lamia will make you experience despair if you dare to increase the bid."

"80 gold. Please friends, give me some face. "

"Am I familiar with you? How much is your face? 90 gold! "

"100! Whoever steals this will be my son. "

"120 gold! I'll become your ancestor! "

"All of you are my grandchildren! 130 gold! "

In just a few seconds, the bid was raised until it reached 400 gold, but it was still increasing as none were going to surrender. Even though they had gritted their teeth due to the high price, as long as they could obtain it, it would be worth it.

"450 gold!"

"This friend has increased the price to 450 gold coins. Is there another friend who wants to increase the price? "

"460 gold!"

"490 gold!"

"490! The price is 490 gold. Is there a friend who wants to raise the price? "

"500 gold coins."

A person drenched in sweat raised the bid as his body was shaking due to the tension.

"520 gold!"

"550 gold!"

"600 gold! Whoever steals my axe will die! "

Cyclone said as he glared at everyone. The cold voice pressed down on everyone. His bid was shocking because it was equivalent to 6 million bronze, but the words that followed made the audience laugh coldly.

Was the price and manner he gave enough to suppress many people? Is he the only one with a prominent background? His words had the opposite effect that he had hoped for.

"This is a godlike item, so it would be naive if you think you can take it with only 600 gold. I'll bid 650 gold! "

Adanella spoke as Cyclone glared at her with hate. Adanella just gave him a smile and did not show any trace of fear at all. However, in the next moment, Adanella's face was distorted as Adrian spoke.

"Here are 1,500 gold coins."

All players who were watching, including those who watched the broadcast, froze upon hearing 1,500 gold coins. Its equivalent value is 15 million bronze coins, yet Adrian was able to acquire that kind of amount already.

However, as the Immortal guild specializes in PK, they plundered and stole from billions of players, which resulted in them having to fork out a great amount of money. However,

"Adrian, you are a necromancer. What do you use this axe for? "

Adanella asked, as all the players within the auction house have dark expressions.

Adrian smirked as he now played with them as he sought revenge for humiliating him earlier.

"I may be a necromancer, and indeed, it is a pity that I can't use it for myself. However, I have a friend who can use it. How could it be considered useless? "

Adrian he said casually, with a smirk on his face.

"This friend has increased the price to 1,500 gold coins. Is there another friend willing to pay more?"

Lilia stated, but no one could respond, and no one could pay that amount unless the money exchange was opened.

"1,500 going once, 1,500 going twice, 1,500 going thrice! Congratulations to Mister Adrian, as this Epic Battle Axe will now be yours."

"I am honored." Adrian smiled as he glanced at Cyclone and Adanella. He stood up in a gentleman's manner as he received the item.

After the end of the auction, players began to leave the auction house with regrets on their faces. Cyclone and Adanella, on the other hand, have faced displeasure as the axe was not in their grasp.

They thought that the winner of the auction was Adrian, but they were wrong. The true winner, on the other hand, was on his way to the Church of Light as he tried to look for information regarding the Demon God's followers.

****

After leaving the White Tiger auction house, Zephyr entered the gate of the Church of Light. Zephyr saw a pure white marble building that reflected the sunlight.

He then saw many people with white robes and concluded they were priests. As soon as they saw Zephyr, all of them ran to him and suddenly kneeled.

Zephyr was left confused, but his face was still expressionless. All of them then said to Zephyr,

"Lord Devil Slayer, it is our honor to have you here in the Church of Light."

Zephyr didn't reply as he looked at them, hearing him being addressed in his title. He was also a little confused about why they were looking at him with admiration. Suddenly, Zephyr then remembered a notification from when he killed Abaddon.

[Affinity with the Church of Light has increased by +75. Visiting a Temple of Light will give you great blessings.]

(Affinity)

Mortal Enemy= -75

Hatred= -50

Hostile= -25

Neutral= 0

Acquaintance= 25

Friend= 50

Admire= 75

In Love= 75 (opposite sex with romantic feelings)

Loyal= 100

Worship= 100+

What he felt confused about for a while was how they were able to recognize him as the Devil Slayer when he hadn't told them a thing. Sensing his confusion, the priest then said to Zephyr.

"We can sense an aura within you that you have slain a legendary demon. Only those who have slain a legendary demon can acquire the title of the Devil Slayer. "

"We also know that you are new to this world and you have already slain a legendary demon which no one has slain in the past hundred years after the Great War."

"I see."

Zephyr nodded, which made them smile. They asked Zephyr about his purpose in coming to the church. Zephyr just replied casually.

"I'm here for information about the Demon God's followers as I have received a mission to slay them and also stop them from summoning the demons back to the mortal world."

All the eyes of the priest widened after hearing that the Demon God's followers were summoning the demons back to the mortal world, and worry was seen in their eyes.

They then look at Zephyr as they wonder what the Devil Slayer would do about it.
