My legendary class is Husband Of Deathwill Sisters?!

Chapter 37: Momma Blue

The Harlo City's Auction House was before them.

It was a grand building with three floors. Its appearance matched the city's architecture, but it still stood out due to many guards and people coming in and out. Traffic here was the worst, but Alex and Remia found room to breathe.

They weren't particularly in awe due to their exhaustion.

But after calming down a little, Alex couldn't help but leave some soft remarks, "They could have left some signs on the streets for newbies such as us. Regardless, it's still a pretty good place."

"Yes. It doesn't look bad." Remia nodded.

Alex marked the auction house on his minimap. On his first continent, it probably would be one of the places he would constantly visit.

He smiled widely at Remia, "Shall we go in and check the interior?"

Although he knew that his journey with her could end at this very moment, Alex didn't want to let this chance go. Before Remia did anything, he proposed to keep their adventure together.

Remia took it as Alex's goodwill, and she agreed, "You are a good person, Alex. Thank you."

A few minutes later, Remia inwardly thanked heavens for bringing her closer to Alex.

That was because the auction house required its clients to have a significant amount of money. They wouldn't let poor players and NPCs enter the building.

With the system, it was pretty easy to confirm whether one possessed enough money or not.

The system never lied, after all.

[A few minutes before Remia thanked the heavens.]

Alex looked ahead of himself.

[Harlo City's Auction House - Every resident must possess at least ten gold coins to enter the auction house. For players, it depends on their level.]

Before the system checked his level, Alex clicked on the resident route. He opened his inventory and selected golden coins. After the system confirmed its authenticity, Alex received the free pass.

He didn't want the system to expose his player status yet.

He then shifted his eyes to Remia, "Do you lack money?"

"T-That's… not really the case… It's just that ten gold coins is too much!" Remia said as if trying to find an excuse.

However, ten gold coins were more than just a significant amount of money.

Alex was a lucky fellow since he had the whole Deathwill Castle for himself. He fought monsters here alone. And then, he found a clue to the skeleton bosses, which had rewarded him with an adequate amount of money for solo clear.

He was one of the wealthiest players in the Avander World.

"Let me try something," Alex gave a reassuring smile to Remia.

He then clicked the auction house system.

His idea was simple; take Remia as his business partner. He wanted her to enter the auction house together with him. At worst, Alex would just invite her to his 'player party' and make her fulfill her goals.

Fortunately for him, the auction house's system had an option that allowed residents and players to invite their partners or party members.

It wasn't really a surprise. Who wouldn't like to show off his wealth? And then, the majority of male species would love to show off with the ladies by their side. After a bit of thinking, Alex genuinely smiled as that was simple people were.

Alex used the resident route and invited Remia to his business relationship...

Seeing the system promptly opening itself before her with a question, Remia's green eyes blinked. Soon, those dazzling hues sparkled as she realized Alex's intent.

"I will repay your goodwill in the future, Alex!" Remia bowed.

Alex shook his head, "It's nothing, really. I can do this much since I currently don't have a company. Now, let's head in. We can't block the queue."

"That's true," Remia peeked behind, then promptly ran after Alex like a little squirrel.

And that was when the new world opened for both of them.

While the exterior was simple and matched the city's architecture, the interior was grand on every step. Red carpet, exquisite paintings, vast chandelier, and more importantly, personnel that was handsome and breath-taking.

Men wore suits and shone dazzlingly while the beautiful women simply drew attention with their exposing clothes and mellifluous chuckles. They offered drinks to guests, even before the auction started!

The lady naturally approached Alex.

After he refused the drink, she fished out a list of items that would be soon on the auction. But before she passed it to Alex, the lady left a kiss on the paper.

Alex didn't really mind such a show, but he wondered whether it was just a service or something deeper hidden behind that gesture.

In the corner of his eye, he found out that other women did the same. One of the guests kissed the list back, winking toward the lady. She winked back and whispered something to his ear.

'Ah, so they also offer this kind of service,' Alex understood the meaning behind the kiss.

Everyone who entered the auction house had a considerable amount of money. Of course, most players were still poor since they were still new to the world, but NPCs already proved that they had at least a few gold coins.

Since Alex looked like NPC, the lady offered herself for a night.

Alex didn't reciprocate those feelings, so he thanked for the list, then added something from himself, "Unfortunately, I have to refuse. But if my situation were different, I would've been more than honored to have such a beautiful lady like you for a night."

"I was just looking forward to a new experience," the lady said, her eyes on the race she had never seen before; a catman, "But now, I am genuinely saddened. Such a gentleman."

Alex grinned with contentment.

Right now, he was surrounded by NPCs. And all males showed enough respect to the ladies. Perhaps, they were famous, or maybe their identities were more than just the auction house's personnel.

Thus, Alex didn't want to just bluntly refuse.

He simply said that he was already taken.

But more than anything, Alex didn't want to lose Remia from his eyes. He still didn't want to lose his golden chance!

"That item list…" Alex said while looking at his game system.

It had absorbed the list and presented the items in a more straightforward form.

Remia said, "Since players use this auction house as well, the auction has three phases; the players' items, the residents' items, and then grand items."

The first was simple; the players mainly were low-level, so some high-leveled residents wouldn't even bat an eye on those items from monsters and dungeons. They would think of them as a waste of time.

Only players of the same level would be interested.

Thus, most players would appear on the first stage. NPCs would spend their time with themselves, talking about their businesses or other stuff.

They would enter the auction's stage on the second phase.

The third phase was for grand items. That phase came out after one of the players brought an epic item.

Alex nodded, "I think I will spend time on the player's phase, then leave." He already had an eye on one of the swords.

Remia agreed, "Me too. I see that there are a few simple poison techniques for low-level players. I will try to buy them."

[Welcome to the Avander World.]

"Hehe, boi. I am here!" A player known as Rasmus Claps rubbed his hands.

He was eager to start another enjoyable gaming experience. But before he took a step forward, his eyes flashed with the system message.

[Your item has been sold on the Harlo City's Auction House.]

[Three gold coins have been transferred to your inventory.]

"Huh?" Rasmus Claps rubbed his eyes, "How come they sold it for three gold coins?! I am fucking rich now!"

He thanked the auction house for their hard work! He also promised to continue his business here!

Of course, Alex was the one who bought his sword.

But that sword wasn't even worth three gold coins. Hence, Rasmus Claps' excitement and joy.

The sword he put on the auction wasn't even an epic item! It was just a unique sword. In the Avander world, the highest grade was currently known as the legendary grade. Epic was one step below the legendary grade.

Most players used common equipment, which was naturally the common grade. The unique grade was after common.

And Rasmus Claps sold a unique sword.

"It was just some sword with ice affinity. It increased [Intelligence] rather than [Strength] or [Agility]. Who would fight for that sword?" Rasmus Claps wondered loudly, holding his chin in bewilderment.

If he knew that one of those players had legendary class, what his reaction would be? Even better, if he knew that the second player was the dungeon conqueror, Momma Blue, the popular celebrity, what his response would be?

Rasmus Claps shrugged, "Probably some idiots who luckily stumbled on a gold chest! Damn, three gold coins! I should go to the auction house myself! Hehe!"
