INFINITE MONEY - I Will Buy Everything

"The Great Houses"

"So they are in on this as well, Huh?"

"Of Course, they are! They are the richest and the strongest there is in the kingdoms, why wouldn't they want to buy ancient and extremely powerful weapons?" Adam said like it's a matter of fact.

Carl scratched his head as he didn't know whether to hide in shame or run away because of his idiotic questions.

"They have the money and the power to buy the legendary items worth billions and even trillions of dollars, so they would have to come.

Even if it's not themselves they would send their representatives here."

Carl changed the topic so that he couldn't be ashamed anymore, "So the auction is not starting yet because of them then."

"Yeah that's right."

Delmar spoke from the speakers, "Carl didn't I just told you not to ask dumb questions?"

"Of course, The Auction is not going to start without them. The auction is made for THEM so what would be the point if they started it without them."

Carl not being able to take any more embarrassment, took his hands up in surrender, "Alright alright, I get it. That was a stupid question to ask, so can you stop harassing me now."

Adam smiled slightly at his facial expression and Delmar also smiled as he said, "Not until your curiosity is fulfilled, young one."

After a slow bartering, Adam and Carl slowly drank their drinks as they waited for the show to start.

"It's gonna take a long time before this shi* show starts doesn't it?"

Adam nodded in confirmation, "Yeah, The Great Houses are known for many things but not for the punctuality of time."

"Well that suc*s, who knows how long we are going to have to wait for their privileged ass."

Adam and Carl then waited for the auction to start.

In the meantime, Two blocks behind the auction house, in a luxurious hotel.

William and his company were typing on their electronic devices for many effects that were not known by him but he knew that it was for his benefit.

William looked at the live feed of Carl drinking from his drink and casually talking with Adam as he was in deep thoughts about something.

After some time he decided to get up from the bed and walk slowly towards the huge tv screen.

"Delmar, can they hear us?"

"Not anymore boss."

"… Tell me what do you thing about this Carl guy?"

Delmar didn't look up from his laptop as he said casually, "Carl?... That guy is an idiot."

"Yeah, that much could be clearly seen from his behavior but about his skills? Are they noteworthy?"

Delmar still holding on to his laptop, said, "Hmm… Yeah I think, He is strong. But not too strong."

"Can you give me an example of his skill or what level he is in right now?"

"About his level, His a mana user or more precisely a mana soldier if I'm right. His level is Level THREE and I think his realm in in the Peak but it could be lower as well."

"What about his combat style and what kind of breathing skill he uses?"

"About his combat style, Most of the times he uses his team to launch conventional weapon attacks but if their using mana then his style turns to a long range fight with and without guns."

"His breathing skill… well the affinity he mostly uses is something called 'Eagle Arts' but he may also have some secondary ones as well which I don't have any information right now."

"So if we put him and Adam in a state where one would have to survive and the other dies then who do you think would win?"

"Seriously boss, you should already know the answer to it"

"Just humor me for a second."

"Alright… It would of course be Adam who wins."

"Why so certain?"

"Because his the stronger individual. He is in a level twice that of Carl. Carl wouldn't stand a chance with the guy even if he was buffed to the extreme by some other manners.

It would just be like sending a sheep to a wolf's den, only to be killed."

"And what about Adam, What do you think of his skills?"

"Little is known about that guy but what I know is that guy after being kicked out of his clan, has been working as a sort of assassin, Selling himself to some rich pompous guy and killing with high precision."

"But strangely that guy never killed anyone who's innocent. He looks at his targets background and then when the guy is satisfied or he fulfills some kind of criteria that's when Adam goes and kills the guy."

"And his strengths?" William asked as he looked towards the ceiling.

"Before that can you tell me something, How strong is he compared to your cat?"

Clawdia in question leaped up from the bed and said exaggeratingly, 'He's not strong at all. Clawdia can swat him like a fly. Clawdia is Awesome."

But her words only came out as her jumping up and down on the bed and saying 'Meow's to everybody except William.

All the guys that were working or guarding the place saw her doing that and thought that she looked very cute doing it. But immediately the memory of her resurfaced as a big terrifying tiger and the thought they had, came and went in an instant.

"Well… according to her, She is stronger but only by a slight marginal. So he should be quite strong if I guessed."

"Then I think that guy is somewhere around the Peak realm of the SIX Level.

As you say, He is stronger than me but slightly weaker than the cat so I can only guess that he is around somewhere in that level."

"And I am also in the SIX Level but not at the Peak realm so our power difference should be somewhat different but if I were to take some kind temporary booster I can take on the guy myself."

William had a deep look about him as he looked at the scene of both Adam and Carl having a small talks and said, "So if I send Adam to kill Carl… Do you think he might do it?"

Immediately the temperature of the room dropped down as everybody froze up.

Especially the guards, they were slightly shaking as the words reached them.

Delmar finally looked up from laptop as he asked, "Why would you want to do that boss?"

William's eyes didn't left the tv screen as he answered, "Well I think that Carl might betray me in a few days."

"OH! Why do you think that?"

"Because of some of his actions today and also because he didn't do anything about the restaurant too."

Delmar nodded as he said, "Yeah that was suspicious but was it enough to warrant such a big caution?"

Some guard beside them spoke up in Carl's defense, "Boss, That's not completely his fault. There are some problems that is happening in his family, that's making him so clumsy now a days."

"So it's in his family huh."

"Delmar look into his background and see what plagues his mind."

Delmar nodded and said, "Roger that."

"Also see if he has been talking with someone new this days."
