Silence filled the room for a moment before a couple of royals activated their displays.
"I'll also offer a lv. 70 peak-tier item!"
"I as well!"
"I'll give you a lv. 75 peak-tier item!"
That shout startled everyone, mainly because it came from the second floor and not the third. All eyes moved in great surprise to see a noble holding a robe.
"This is a lv. 75 dragon's sorcerer's cloak. Feel free to inspect it as you see fit," stated that noble with a big smile.
That noble wasn't the only one who was smiling. In his room, Jack laughed and removed his display items without a word.
"What's wrong, Jack?" asked Argyle, who was more surprised by Jack voluntarily giving up the bid than anything.
The auctioneer also noticed that Jack removed his bid and asked, "Sir, does this mean you rescind your bid instead of increasing your offer?"
"Let my good friend have it."
