Chapter 234: The Celestial Merchant Group
Chapter 234: The Celestial Merchant Group
"Hmmmm, sorry to ask, but do you by any chance think I’m stupid?"
The appraiser caused a commotion in order to scare Leon into letting go of the jewelleries. No one wanted to be painted as a scammer, especially someone as old as Leon. However, he didn’t expect for Leon to challenge him outrightly.
"You.."
However, before he could speak one more word, a Gigantic pressure mounted on him from behind causing his chest to be heavy. In his greed, he had forgotten one crucial thing.
The people that would come for the blood unity auction were usually from infulencial backgrounds. If it were a kid standing infront of him, he could probably scare him without strength....but this man was old....abnormally old, and yet he still had the strength to move and be here.
"You should watch how you speak young man" Leon smirked. In fact the pressure wasn’t coming from him, but the way Leon stood in front made it seem like he was the originator of this energy.
"I....." The old appraiser stepped back....but surprisingly he didn’t fall to the floor like last time, because standing right behind him was a tall figure in similar appraiser Apparel looking directly at the kaga puppet.
"Huh?" The old appraiser turned and froze at the sight of who was behind him.
"Senior Franklin" Immediately he bowed his head as an indescribable fear shot down his spine.
The blood unity auction was held by the blood clans, but was operated by the biggest merchant organisation in all the sacred land.
The celestial merchant group.
This groups influence was massive and had not only warlocks as part of them, bit also humans and other monstrous beings. It was a very mysterious organisation in respect to how much power it could muster at any given point in time.
It usually went unnoticed with very few employees....at least that was until business was involved. Then it would suddenly become a giant.
"What’s going on here"
The tall man asked while maintaining a clear glow in his eyes. He was unlike the old appraiser an official member of the celestial merchant group.
"Hehe, this isn’t any booster you’d see normally on the streets.....you know that right?" Leon asked as he placed his wrinkly hand around the bottle and caressed it.
Boosters, these were similar to performance henning substances. They had the ability to temporarily boost the potency of the blood in whomsoever used them..
Unfortunately, they usually came at severe costs. Including, and not limited to complete blockage of future prospects. Taking them was a last ditch effort.
"Of course.....so tell me what’s different about them" Franklin smiled and sat back into his chair.
Leon right now looked like one of those old monsters who would spend decades in closed door sessions to develop or experiment on new things.
The creature behind him was testament to that.
"Hehe, all you young people and being so Conservative....call someone in" Leon smiled and shook his head.
Explaining what it was didn’t suit the caliber of the blood misty lilly powder Leon developed.
A show of its abilities was more suited.
"Okay!!! Xin, come in here for a minute" Franklin called forth and the old appraiser ran In from outside and quickly bowed.
He didn’t want to think of what would happen if he offended mister Franklin. It would be a death sentence.
"Take a whiff of this and tell me how it makes you feel" Franklin pulled forward the bottle forward and said.
He was too precious to try an experimental drug on, the old man though...he basically had no future, he could try it.
"Yes master Franklin" the appraiser smiled bitterly. The tables had turned drastically.
He, who had treated Leon like a nobody was now being used as a guinea pig for his experimental drug.
His luck was the worst.
