Chapter 25: Chapter 25: ‘Princess’s Jewels’ and ‘Frost Breathing Technique’ (Please Chase Reading)

Translator: 549690339

“Next up is the ninth lot, a manuscript from the Kingdom’s Holy Temple Knight, with significant collectible value, starting at 2000 gold coins!” On the auction stage, the auctioneer introduced the lot in front of him.

“2200 gold coins!”

“2500 gold coins!”

There wasn’t a noisy atmosphere, and the bids were orderly.

Milton Cheney had to admit the atmosphere in the auction was quite good, and the nobles participating in the auction were also very enthusiastic.

Sitting in the private box on the second floor, Milton could oversee everything.

There were only four private boxes on the second floor.

These were prepared for nobles of significant status, and you could also bid from within these boxes.

In fact, at the beginning of the auction, Milton was already observing to see who on the first floor resembled a member of the Black Robe Seekers’ Club.

Luckily, amongst the nobles attending the auction, only one was dressed in black.

Milton easily zeroed in on the person who resembled a member of the Black Robe Seekers’ Club.

This person had not made a single bid since the auction began. Sitting there, prim and proper, he gave off an air of aloofness. “William, do you know that nobleman in black?”

Milton casually asked William, who was guarding beside him.

Upon hearing Milton’s words, William looked up at the man in black sitting on the first floor, contemplating for a moment.

“That is Viscount Russell. His territory is also in the East River Province. Is there anything wrong, Young Master?”

William replied, throwing a question back at Milton.

“Nothing, I was just curious because he’s the only one here dressed in black.”

Milton offered a casual explanation, but he wasn’t as calm inside as he appeared on the surface.

He had not expected there to be a nobleman among the Black Robe Seekers’ Club.
