The very first item that was brought on the stage for this final part of the auction was one of the scrolls that Elena had provided. It was not listed on the list that was given before the start of the auction and as the spell of this scroll was super useful, quite a few people were pleasantly surprised by its arrival.

The spell on this scroll was a defensive one that created a barrier which completely surrounded the user. Not only that but this defensive barrier was quite powerful too. These types of spells were some of the most valuable ones as they were basically equivalent to having an extra life. And this defensive spell was also a new unknown one so the magic researchers of this city were also interested in it for that reason.

So the demand for this spell scroll was quite high. This was a clever marketting tactic of The Elder Works. They had the formation diagram of this spell, so they would be able to mass produce this scroll in the future. So currently they were showing off how immensely useful this defensive spell was to the people present in this auction.

Elena was also happy to see that the reception of this spell of hers was quite good. This was something she had developed after coming to this world using the laws of this divine world. So she was quite satisfied with it. Seeing other also liking it made Elena super happy.

For this reason, Elena was in a very good mood. This was contagious and made other people present in the room happy too. Haity went out for some time to bring some food and juice in the VIP room and served it to everyone. Then she again sat down in her spot. No one said anything about this behaviour of hers even though an assistant like her was not supposed to sit beside the client.

As Haity was in cloud nine with her current situation, suddenly her eyes widened and her body become stiff. This sudden shift did not go unnoticed by the other people present in the room. As for the reason behind this, it was the item that was brought on the stage next.

The item in question was a ring made from a bluish silver metal. It had the pattern of an unfamiliar flower on it. It was truly a beautiful ring. But that was not all. This ring was also a high grade magic item with several enchantments on it. Overall, the value of this ring was definitely super high.

Seeing the stiff Haity, Elena gently started patting her back and whispered in her ears for her to calm down a little. Feeling the gentle and reassuring touch of Elena, Haity finally managed to get herself together. Then Elena asked her about what was troubling her with an encouraging smile on her face.

Haity took a deep breath to calm down a little and decided to tell Elena about her troubles. Even though she had known Elena for only an hour, Haity had a very strong trust for her. Even though Haity was a simp, she was not really a person who easily trusted others. So even she was surprised by how easily she had managed to trust Elena.

"I'm from a fallen family of mages. The name of that family is Treust. The pattern on that ring is the emblem of the Truest family. This should belong to my big sister. When our family was destroyed, both of us were sent to different locations to run away from this disaster. But now after seeing the ring here, I became worried about the safety of my big sister."

Hearing this explanation, Elena nodded her head. While Haity was telling her story, the bidding for the ring was about to reach its final stages. At that moment, Elena called out a bid of 250 million Stella and won the ring in her usual domineering fashion. Seeing this Haity was very moved as she knew that this beautiful lady here had no need to buy this ring. So she had obviously bought it for her sake. But at the same time, she also felt bad for wasting someone else's money for her own need.

But Elena did not allow Haity to think too much about this matter and immediately asked her for something. As now she was the owner of the ring, she had the authority to ask for more details about it from the auction house. So she asked Haity to go and learn those details. This way, there was possibility that Haity might be able to learn something about her missing big sister.

...

After Haity went out of the room, Elena used a bell like magic item present in the VIP room to ask for a second assistant. Soon another mature lady came to the room and immediately left it afterwards. She had gotten a task from Elena too. She was asked to buy some information from the intelligence department of the Elder Works and the subject of this information was the Treust family.

Even though Haity was a bit pervy, she was a good person. Her thoughts were quite lustful without any doubt but at the same time, she only her goodwill in her heart. That was why Elena was actually quite fond of her. So if it was not too much, she wanted to help her out a little bit.

As Elena was thinking about this matter, the scroll of Scarlet Sinner was brought to the stage. Elena immediately shifted her attention and got ready to get her hands on this. The spell Scarlet Sinner was a very powerful and famous spell that consisted of the lesser concept of Infernal Justice. This was a trademark spell of a sage with the title of "Guandian Sage of Just Judgement".

So the demand for this spell was extremely high. There were many people who wanted to get their hands on this for research and study. Normally an one time use spell scroll would not be too expensive. But this spell was famous enough to become one of the most expensive spell scroll to be sold from the Elder Works.

This time, Elena did not bid at the very beginning. That was mainly because she had missed the perfect opportunity with her mind being distracted while thinking about Haity's matters. So instead of shouting her price in the middle of others speaking, Elena decided to call her bid when the bidding had died down a little.

The estimated final price of this Scarlet Sinner scroll was between 400 million to 600 million Stella. But even before the shouting dying down, even the high margin had been cross.

After the price had reached over 700 million, finally the pace of the bidding lessened. Taking this opportunity, Elena called out the price of 1 billion. As this was almost double the estimated amount, Elena thought that no one would be willing to go any higher than that for an one time use scroll.

But Elena's assumption turned out to me wrong. The bidding did not end after the super high price of one billion was thrown out and instead continued as one of the VIP room called out the price of 1.1 billion.

...

As soon as Castrotini Astroyume heard Elena's bid, his face contorted in anger. This unknown lady had been buying a lot of things from this auction for enormous sums of money. Castrotini was sure that her financial power was greater than his.

But still, he could not give up on this scroll as this was something that his father needed very badly for his research. If he could gift this to his father then there was a high possibility that he would give Castrotini access to his research logs and spell collections. So for a bright future, Castrotini decided to go all out and called out the bid of 1.1 billion even though his heart was bleeding terribly after quoting this insane sum.
