Chapter 666- Master of the Eye
This is the main reason why not many high ranking demons are willing to take risks by bidding for items like the Eye of Enigma whose value is incredibly difficult to assess.
What's more, the shady way the merchant had introduced the eye, they had all the more reason not to bid. Oswell too had similar thoughts; however, when he saw the Eye of Enigma end up from Famoon to Simon as if the item was choosing its master, he couldn't help but believe that it was a genuine article.
Though that said, Oswell had no intentions for the item. Since the Eye of Enigma ended up in Simon's hand, he believed that the item had chosen him.
"Master, here" Theodore passed the Eye of Enigma to Simon.
Looking at the container that had the mysterious Eye of Enigma, Simon's heart started pounding in anticipation. As he gingerly extended his hands, he couldn't help but wonder if the Eye of Enigma had really chosen him as his master.
