My Mercenary Guild is Full of Beauties

"Captain, that Olsen didn't leave with his group," Claudia told Aurora what she saw through the window, and she just nodded slightly to show that she had already noticed it.

"Okay, although there was a little accident, I still want to congratulate the Raging Tempest Mercenary Group for the successful bidding on the Dragon Fang Sword. I believe this Dragon Fang Sword will definitely be a great help to them."

A burst of applause followed after Vivian offered her congratulations, and at this time the light of the magic stone lamp specifically fell on Olsen's body, making him the brightest star of the show.

Of course, not everyone thought the same, especially Olsen who was seething in anger in his seat. He might not be a star, but sure, he was still entertaining in his own way. Just like a clown, he was.

'Killing without shedding any blood… this girl is ruthless enough…' Aurora chuckled inwardly at Vivian's trick.

Aurora also applauded along with those people in the hall, especially the Moon Wolf Mercenary Group, the enemy of Olsen, who even contributed more than half of the audience's applause.

Because of the flushed faces from the excitement, the whistling, and the cheering, people who didn't know the relationship between these two mercenary groups would definitely feel that they were best friends or sworn brothers. Especially Tix, who even stepped on a chair and whistled wildly at him.

Facing the applause of the crowd, Olsen forced a smile, but the palm of his hand was already bleeding red because his nails were embedded in the flesh due to his clenched fist.

"Go on, please invite the next auction item!"

The lights gathered on this auction item; a staff as white as jade emitted a faint white light under the light and appeared in everyone's sight. The golden pattern on the staff was like vines coiling around a tree branch.

"Finally, there is a good item!"

Aurora suddenly exclaimed when she saw the staff.

---

Glory Melody (Common Level) - The holy light will illuminate all things in the world, and life will thrive in the embrace of holy light.

When releasing light attribute magic, increase the casting speed by 2%, and increase the healing magic recovery rate by 2%.

---

Although this staff was not as good as the attributes and grades of Nether Embrace, it was the most suitable for Claudia at this time.

"The name of this staff is Glorious Melody. It was a weapon used by a priest before, and she chose to sell this staff for some special reasons... Needless to say, the starting price... 13 pieces gold."

"20 gold coins! This staff just happens to be used by the little girl of our mercenary group!" Tix opened his mouth to bid.

"I'll offer 23 gold coins!" A nobleman upstairs also participated in the bidding, and he happened to be courting a female priest recently. When he saw this staff for the first time, he felt that if such a beautiful staff was given to her as a gift, then maybe the other party would agree to have dinner with him.

After the two opened their mouths, others also started bidding.

Aurora looked at their heated auction and did not respond for the time being. She wanted to wait for the price to stabilize before participating in the auction.

It was really fortunate that this staff showed up in the end. After all, she already gave Flamme a gift, so it felt a little bit uncomfortable for her to let Claudia go home empty-handed.

At the same time, she was also paying attention to Olsen's situation. The latter was sitting in a daze at the moment without saying a word. If it weren't for the occasional resentful eyes, Aurora would have thought that he had been forced into a mental collapse. Though, if she were to be honest, it looked like that day would come sooner rather than later.

"57 gold coins!"

After the nobleman shouted a wave of prices again, the number of people who continued bidding decreased a lot. After all, they were all knowledgeable about the normal price of a staff of this level in the market and certainly felt that it wasn't worth it. If it weren't for the auction, they might not be able to sell the staff at such a ridiculous price.

"It should be almost there—60 gold coins!" After seeing that there were hardly many people bidding on the field, Aurora immediately pressed on.

"65 gold coins!"

"70 gold coins!" Aurora pressed again.

"..."

The nobleman in the box frowned slightly. The price of 70 gold coins was already quite high. Was it necessary for him to keep bidding just for a chance of dinner?

While the nobleman was silent, Olsen slowly raised his head, and a trace of scarlet flashed in his eyes.

"80 gold coins!"

His shout instantly attracted the attention of everyone on the field.

"Olsen, are you fucking crazy? This is a magic staff! There isn't any priest in your mercenary group who needs to use this weapon. What the hell do you use it for? Shove it in your ass?" Tix stood on the chair and pointed to his head. "Are you sure you're not broken here?"

"Hehehe… shut your trap, you motherfucker! If you have the ability you can continue to bid, if not just go fuck yourself, you bastard!"

"Whatever! I don't want to talk to you lunatic."

Aurora immediately understood Olsen's intentions. He wanted to raise the price, just like she did, so she could pay more for the staff.

"Young man, you are still too young." Aurora smiled contemptuously at this. 'Want to play, right? I'll play you to death!'

"90 gold coins!"

"100 gold coins!" Olsen quickly took it. Not only that, but he also reached out to Aurora on the second floor and wiped it on his neck.

"Childish…" Aurora shook her head, but the smile on her face grew even brighter. Claudia, who saw her leader's behavior, couldn't help but mutter in a faint voice, "You aren't much better, Captain…"

Aurora pretended not to hear what Claudia said and continued bidding.

"120 gold coins!"

"130 gold coins!"

After Olsen yelled out the price again, Aurora's light voice came from the second floor.

"Congratulations, this staff is yours."

"150 go— wh-what do you say?"

"I give up. Now, it's yours. Congratulation, you are so... lucky~ Ah... I'm so sad... Flamme, Claudia, please comfort me~"

"..."

The scene became strangely quiet for a while, and Olsen froze for a moment, still not able to register the sequence of events that unfold before him in his brain.

Why didn't this bitch follow the script? You just give up? If you try again, I will give up; isn't that the right plot?!

Olsen felt as if thousands of alpacas were galloping through his heart.

"You! You tricked me!"

"Heh, who is cheating on you if I don't?" Aurora sneered contemptuously.

"Pfft… you are so bad, Captain!" Claudia clutched her stomach tightly and laughed so hard that she rolled on the sofa. Olsen's constipated expression was simply a sight to behold.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

In an instant, the entire auction erupted into unbridled laughter, and everyone immediately understood that Olsen had lost completely.

"Then what... cough cough... Congratulations to Mr. Olsen for successfully bidding on this staff! Everyone please congratulate him with warm applause!"

Vivian almost couldn't hold back her laughter, and she quickly changed the subject and announced that he had successfully bid for the auctioned staff.

"Damn it! Bastard! Fuckkk!! I have no money anymore!" Olsen was in a panic, seemed to lost his ability to think straight and just blurted out a sentence accidentally.

But after the words were spilled, the laughter in the venue stopped abruptly, everyone's eyes fell on him for a moment, and the entire auction venue fell into a strange silence.

Not good!

Instantly, his dizzy mind calmed down, and Olsen felt as if his whole body had been poured with cold water.

What did he say just now?!

Vivian on the stage also restrained her smile at the moment. She looked at Olsen calmly for a while before she said softly, "Mr. Olsen, do you know the rules of our auction?"

"That... this... Miss Vivian, I didn't do it on purpose. I was controlled by magic just now! That's right! It was Aurora who used magic to control me and force me to bid blindly!" Olson pointed at the second room where Aurora was and said anxiously, "How dare I go against the Chamber of Commerce! Miss Vivian, you have to hold the justice for me!"

"What nonsense are you talking about! It's obvious that you deliberately raised the price to make our captain bid at a high price, but she just gave up the item before you! How can there be any magic to control you!"

Upon hearing this, Claudia couldn't bear it anymore, and she fiercely scolded Olsen in public. Aurora looked at her with a strange gaze and mused secretly, 'Oh... so she can be a lioness if she needs to...'

"Olsen, you really lost it, dude. Even that old man is more sensible than you!"

Of course, the old man mentioned by Tix was President Henrick, but no one wanted to comment on his mockery right now.

And finally, Aurora opened her mouth and said, in a lazy tone, "Hey watch out your mouth, Olsen. It's Lady Aurora for you." Then she turned to Vivian, "Miss Vivian… it seems that Mr. Olsen has something to say about the security of your auction house…"

It was all over…

After today's incident, Olsen's reputation would hit rock bottom in Rosewood City.

"Mr. Olsen, our Nightingale Chamber of Commerce is very protective of all guests. Not only are three-star magicians and master-level powerhouses on guard, but we have also specially arranged a shielding magic circle to avoid various accidents.

If Lady Aurora really uses magic to control you as you said, then we will be able to know instantly the moment she uses magic... So, please don't use this lamentable excuse to fool us."

Vivian's tone became as cold as winter's hail.

"So, Mr. Olsen, do you have the 130 gold coins needed to complete the transaction?"

"I... I don't have that many gold coins." Olsen's tone weakened, and he finally lowered his head.

"Very well, because Mr. Olsen violated the rules of our auction and caused the staff of Glorious Melody to fail to be sold, Mr. Olsen is now expelled from the auction and will be forever banned from attending our auction and cooperating with our chamber of commerce in the future."

"No! Miss Vivian, I was wrong! Give me another chance! You can't do this to me!"

Olsen kept begging for mercy at Vivian, but she gave her a hard look, followed by a bunch of members of the chamber of commerce rushing up to drag him out of the auction hall.

After dealing with the farce, Vivian put a smile on her face again.

According to the rules of the auction, if an auction of an item failed due to the lack of funds of the bidder, as long as the other party agreed, then the second bidder, Aurora, could directly obtain the item. Of course, in order to make up for the gold coins needed for the auction, the price would also be increased a little.

In the end, Aurora managed to obtain this glorious melody after paying 100 gold coins and giving them to Claudia.

Looking at Claudia, who was so happy holding the staff, the corners of Aurora's mouth could not help but rise slightly. Coming to this, she had gained numerous unexpected benefits. And maybe the best thing was that the three of them had grown slightly closer after this auction.
