Chapter 308: Blocked
"You Bastard! How dare you talk to my father like that!" Rahil stood up with a red face as he pointed his finger at Ryder. He was already annoyed at Ryder but watching his father being talked to like that made him even angrier.
"This guest here, I would suggest you sit down and not disturb the proceedings. Otherwise, I would be forced to make you leave," The Auctioneer said as he saw Rahil standing up and arguing with Ryder.
"Sit down," Major General Raul told Rahil, making him sit down.
" Major General Raul, aren’t you going to raise the bid? I thought you had some money since you’re in such a high position, but I guess I was wrong," Ryder let out as he chuckled, trying to pin the man in the army uniform to raise his bid.
"You!"
Major General Raul became even more frustrated at the taunts. Previously, he was thinking about pulling out since he didn’t have much money left, but now it was about his reputation and about revenge.
He knew that he didn’t have enough money to buy this item anymore, but he still wanted Ryder to suffer a loss.
He knew that the Maxwell Family had tons of money. They could buy even if he bid a Hundred Million Dollars, so he wanted to make them bleed. He could feel that Ryder wanted this item as well. There was no way that Ryder was going to let him win, which he wanted to use to his advantage.
"Twenty-five Million Dollars," he raised the bid, but this time he was calmer. He knew that Ryder would outbid him, so he didn’t need to worry about paying the money.
Everyone in the hall was gasping at the massive bid.
He had raised the bid by close to five million dollars at once. An item that was priced at 1 million dollars was not at twenty-five Million dollars. The Silva Family members that were watching it were surprised as well.
"Twenty-six Million Dollars," Ryder raised the bid again.
The bidding war once again continued and reached a massive Fifty Million Dollars in an instant.
The Current Bid was from Major General Raul, who had bid Fifty Million Dollars. There was not a speck of sweat on his face despite budding so much money since he knew that he didn’t need to pay as Ryder would increase the bid again.
He just wanted Ryder to pay over Fifty Million Dollars for this item. After this bid, he was going to pull out from bidding since his goal was going to be completed. He was seeing this as his revenge on Ryder.
While he was waiting for Ryder to raise the bid, his face turned pale as he heard Ryder’s next words.
"I pull out. Fifty million dollars is too much for me. Congrats on winning the feces," Ryder said innocently.
Shu was getting concerned for Ryder for bidding so much, but after hearing his words, he understood what Ryder was trying to do. He had to work so hard to control his laughter.
"You! What happened, little guy? Is that the only power of the Maxwell Family? The Giant Maxwell Family can’t even afford fifty million dollars? Such an undeserved reputation. Hahaha," Major General Raul started laughing as he mocked Ryder in an effort to make him bid again.
"Ah, You’re right. We don’t have fifty million dollars to spend on that marvelous item," Ryder said as he sighed as if he was really disappointed that he couldn’t buy this item.
"Have fun with this. You were willing to pay Fifty Million Dollars for this. I think this Antarctic Spirit Mammoth feces deserve to be in your hands. I’m impressed by your convictions. I can’t bid against you after knowing you want to do much anyway," he continued.
" Alright. Master Raul had bid Fifty Million Dollars. Is there anyone willing to raise the bid?" The Auctioneer asked everyone.
Major General Raul’s face was as pale as it could be. He knew that he couldn’t afford it, but he couldn’t pull out either. He had bid, and this was the Silva Clan household. He wanted to cry, but no tears came out of his eyes.
While the Auctioneer started counting, he kept trying to make Ryder irritated and bid more, but nothing worked.
"Fifty Million Dollars...3."
"I would like to Congratulate Master Raul for winning this item for Fifty Million Dollars. You can pay the money at the time of leaving and collect your item," The Auctioneer said with a smile on his face as he looked at Major General Raul.
The Auction continued throughout the day. Ryder could constantly feel a murderous gaze towards him. He knew where it was coming from, but he chose to ignore it since he already knew who it was from.
He was more focused on the items that were being shown off in front of him on the Stage.
There were many interesting items. Many of them had the same effect as a few of the Items that Ryder had seen in his System Store.
Even though the items were rare, they weren’t something that either he or Shu found useful. None of them bid for anything in the auction.
Soon, the Auction was over, and it was late in the evening.
Everyone was escorted to the dining hall. Many tables were arranged so that people could have dinner separately with the ones they came with.
The dishes were also the special ones from the Silva Family that used the full knowledge of their medicine into the food to make it more useful for them.
Ryder ate them, and he found them to be one of the tastiest dishes he had tasted. He also felt his strength increasing as he ate them, even though only by a negligible amount.
"It would have been so good if Alice could taste these too," Ryder muttered as he sighed while remembering about Alice, who was alone at the estate.
The Dinner passed away peacefully without anything exciting happening.
Before anyone knew it, it was time to leave.
The Hosts of the Silva Clan thanked everyone for coming and bid them farewell.
Ryder left the mansion of the Silva Clan with Shu as he walked towards the entrance of the estate where their guards were standing, but along the way, he and Shu had to stop as they saw Major General Raul and Rahil standing before them.
"Ah, right. We’re outside the Silva Family Mansion. Anything goes here," Ryder muttered as he smiled while looking in the eyes of Major General Raul, who was staring back at him with a murderous gaze.
