Brittney quickly bent down, picked up her mic, and yelled: "990 Trillion! Going once!!"
Her gaze darted between Victoria and Matilda, both of whom were completely lost in their thoughts. She wasn’t even sure if they had heard her, so she yelled again:
"990 Trillion! Going twice!!!"
Still nothing. No one dared to breathe, let alone bid.
"Sold! To Queen Josephine of the Beastify race!" Brittney yelled triumphantly. "Queen Josephine, are you paying now or later?"
Josephine looked at Sunny, who turned to the lady holding the POS machine.
"Swipe the card," he said.
The lady trembled as she shakily swiped the card. The entire hall was so silent you could hear a pin drop. Everyone was waiting for those two words.
[Paynt Successful!!]
BOOOM!
The words exploded like dynamite, reshaping everyone’s worldview. From this day forward, they knew the God Wolf was the embodint of wealth.
’If he is this wealthy, how strong are his troops?’ Jade thought to herself. ’If he could spend this much, all his troops must be wearing high-class equipnt... And with this shield, they will be protected from our attacks.’
DING!
[Queen Jolie: We need to put a hold on our attack plan... When we get more intel, we will attack. For now... we need to know everything about the Beastify nation.]
Jade nodded. ’It seems I’m not the only one with the sa thought.’ She looked at Sunny. ’We will et in the future.’
"Okay, everyone!" Brittney smiled brightly at the guests.
"The last item will be displayed tomorrow morning! For those attending the Supre Auction for the first ti, houses are provided for the royal families... Each has their own estate and workers, and everything will be provided by the Supre Auction. Have a good night, everyone! See you tomorrow." She said, adding:
"And those who are paying later... you can complete your paynt now."
She gave Sunny a sweet smile, sothing Josephine noticed.
"See you tomorrow," she said, and walked off the stage.
The lady, drenched in sweat, walked toward Sunny and bowed, stretching her hand out to him. "King God Wolf, your card."
"Thanks!" Sunny took his card and stored it in his system storage. He stood up.
"God Wolf! Your mansion is the sa as the other royal families; it’s located on the north side of my nation. You won’t miss it!" Falkor said with a smile.
Sunny gestured to Ellen, who stood up and rushed toward him. He took her hand and nodded at Falkor.
"Thanks," he said, and walked toward the exit, with Josephine and Jinx following closely behind him and Ellen.
"What a king," Lewis said with awe.
"Yep... If only he were our dad," Jessica added.
KNOCK!
"OUCH!!!"
The two exclaid, turning around to face their father’s angry face.
"You two are—"
"—No! No! We were just saying nonsense, nothing more!" Lewis quickly said, waving his hands defensively.
Falkor stared at the two of them for a mont, then turned and walked away.
"Wow... The smart kid admitted he spoke nonsense... I won’t forget this," Cain said with a smirk, walking past his twin brother.
"You! Tomorrow! I will show you!" Lewis spat out.
"Brother... What is tomorrow’s item?" Jessica asked with curiosity, watching as the guests filed out of the hall.
"I also don’t know... I only know it’s the biggest and most special item in this year’s Supre Auction," Lewis answered.
"Wait... do you an—"
"—Shhh! No one knows if it’s that thing yet... Let’s just hope it is," Lewis said, shushing her.

[Night Ti.]
Sunny sat in the sitting room, lost in thought.
’The quest for spending 50 trillion, where I later spent 990 trillion, gave even more gemstones and one billion EXP... what is the system’s plan? Does it want to get stronger faster? Is sothing coming?’ He sighed, closing his eyes.
’You can just answer , you know!’ he yelled inwardly.
{I don’t have the answers to Master’s questions... The future is unpredictable and mysterious. I can’t give an answer because I don’t control ti.}
’That’s bullshit! You took from thousands of years back and threw here, and you say you don’t have power over ti! Who will believe that?!’ he asked.
{"....?!"}
Sunny sighed. He knew the system was keeping sothing from him, so he would just follow its idea and get stronger. The system was alive because he was alive, so it would do anything to keep him safe.
With a nod, he brought out the orb.
"So this orb will create a barrier that can cover the whole city."
{Protection Artifact discovered.}
{Linking...}
"...Huh?" Sunny was stunned. ’Go on.’
{Protection Artifact: Provides a force field around a chosen location with a defense of 500,000.}
{When linked with , the Artifact will be upgraded, and Master will be able to protect the whole planet with a force field, with a defense of 10,000,000.}
Sunny blinked, the system’s words still ringing in his head. "From 500,000 defense to 10,000,000... Won’t my planet be invincible?" he muttered in surprise. "Do it!"
{Upgrade started... 24 hours.}
"Who are you talking to?"
Sunny turned to see Josephine standing before him. She was wearing a blue, short nightgown, which made him swallow hard.
"Just... just upgrading the defense orb," he said, quickly lowering his gaze from her to the orb.
"Oh... is that a good thing?" Josephine asked with a pleased smile, having clearly caught him checking her out.
"Yep... After the upgrade, we can secure the whole planet with this," he said with a smile.
Josephine walked toward him, placed a finger under his jaw, and gently raised his head to face her. "You’ve worked so hard... You need to rest," she said with a seductive smile.
"Really? How will you help with that?" he asked with a smirk.
Josephine crossed one leg over his and sat down on his lap. "How do you want my help?" she asked.
Sunny swallowed. "Ellen?"
"She’s asleep."
"And Jinx?"
"Wow... soone rembered ."
"...?!"
The two of them snapped their heads toward the stairs, both completely dumbfounded.
