(The previous two chapters has been fixed! Sorry for the mistake!)

The crowd that bore witness to his failure started commenting.

Someone pointed at the rocks scattered on the table and laughed, “Oh My God, they are all just pieces of trash! He lost 100k in a single day. His luck is like dog’s shit!”

“With luck like that, it’s a surprise he still has a family that supports him and money to spend.”

“I bet his family wealth is running dry because of him.”

Roy could also be seen pointing and laughing at Donovan. “Pfft! To spend 100 thousand gold coins and only get rocks worth two bricks in return.. how unlucky can you get?”

Hearing his words, Donovan felt so shaken that creases appeared on his face and he also felt so angered that a vein popped on his neck.

He was frowning, crying, and feeling angry at the same time.

Glaring at Roy, he said, “Don’t be so happy too early. It’s still not determined if you are the winner.”

Roy turned his gaze away from Donovan and winked at the servicer. “Open them.”

Arturo nodded, “Got it, boss!”

Methodically, Arturo created cracks on the mine stones and then gave each a gentle tap.

“Pa!”

The mine stones purchased by Roy were opened simultaneously, revealing three sparkling gems amid countless stone fragments.

Their beauty and shine attracted everyone’s eyes.

The crowd immediately went into an uproar.

“Complexity, Invisibility, and Painful Healing.. he actually got three runic stones from ten mine stones. What’s the possibility of that happening?!”

“Second to none!” A guest exclaimed.

“Mother! My dream is fulfilled. I have seen the God of Gambling! I can finally rest in peace.” An old man said.

His grandson shouted, “Grandpa, don’t go dying on me. You still have to name me your inheritor!”

Looking at them, a young busty woman felt fascinated. “These runic stones are too beautiful. The Four colors of this one perfectly blend in together. Its aesthetic value alone is in tens of thousands. I’ll give my heart and body to anyone who gifts me this!”

“What Dog-shit luck! He is close to our age, but why is there such a ridiculous difference between us? Should I change sides and hug his thigh instead.” Mark not only envied Roy but also wanted to get close to him.

The black-clothed youth threateningly looked at Mark. “I had paid for the treatment of your sister and also cleared your debts. So far, they sum up to 3 million. You still need to serve me for ten more years to pay it off. If you want to leave my side before repaying me, you’ll have to leave behind your limbs and organs.”

Mark saw a very dark desire in his eyes and swallowed nervously. “I won’t dare leave you for another man!”

The black-Clothed Youth: “...” Why does this sound so wrong?

Right then, the guard behind him opened his mouth.

“Rune stone of complexity is the hardest to come by. It’s known that their number can’t exceed seven. And one ended up in his hand too easily. He’ll cause waves in the future. He’s not to be offended.”

Meanwhile, Hundreds of pairs of eyes greedily stared at Roy.

As a result, he felt goosebumps on his skin.

“W-what? Why are you all looking at me like that?” He questioned them.

“I’ll pay you 100 thousand for this!”

“I’ll give you 300 thousand gold coins! Or you can quote me a price. I definitely want to take this home.”

Immediately, the frantic crowd surrounded him and offered various prices for his items.

Roy looked at them and replied, “Sorry, but they aren’t for sale.”

Donovan saw the attention Roy was getting and thought, “It’s just three runic stones, yet they are fetching such a ridiculous price. This time.. I’ve completely lost to him.”

Suddenly, he heard someone saying, “How did he get so lucky? I feel like there’s something off.”

Donovan’s eyes lit up in a thoughtful light, and he pointed at Roy accusingly, “I know! You must have cheated!!”

Alfonso was nearby, and he happened to hear that. He cleared his thought forcefully. This was enough to catch the attention of the crowd. “Even our Sensory Type mages didn’t detect him use a trick, so how can you say that? They are the best at their job and can detect mana fluctuations of up to about 500 meters. Are you looking down on them?”

“No, that was not my intention.” Donavon shook his head. He looked rather baffled and anxious.

“Then.. You’re intentionally accusing a noble of the higher status of a crime without proof! That’s a punishable act!” Alfonso pressured him further.

“I-I..”

The troubled Donovan was saved by his sworn knight, Artie.

“Silence.” The Sworn Knight first told him to shut up. His glare was too sharp. Donovan closed shut his mouth.

‘Each time this waste opens his mouth, the air would be polluted, and the people will be offended.’ Artie thought, ‘This time, too, he has offended not a few people.’

Artie slightly bowed to Roy and Alfonso, “He’s still young and is pretty lacking. I hope you can overlook his rudeness and forgive him this time.”

“He can be forgiven for accusing this lord, but if he doesn’t fulfill his side of the deal, I am afraid strict actions will be taken against him.” Roy walked past Artie and stopped before Donovan, “Pay up.”

Seeing the smug smile on Roy’s face, Donovan kicked the nervousness out of his heart.

“.. and what if I don’t?” He said arrogantly. There’s no way in hell he would apologize to a pretty face and slap himself! That would ruin him! He won’t have any face(reputation) left to show! Even his homies would diss him! He would be bullied!

Roy’s expression hardened, but before he could say anything, such a powerful voice sounded that it made Donovan tremble like an electrocuted person.

Arlo: “I’ll be forced to make you honor your words.”

The voice came from behind him.

Donovan turned around and saw a monstrosity of a human, a hulking giant.

“Who is this bald man that looks like a featherless chicken?” He voiced out his thoughts.

Roy’s eyebrows jumped. Alfonso had the same reaction.

“Is this guy crazy? How can he say that to a Grandmaster?”

“He’s not just any grandmaster. He is the Count’s brother. Rumors have it; he’s more fierce than the Count. And does not let any humiliation go unjudged.”

“Wait, doesn’t that mean the Soren’s brat is fucked?!”

Many in the crowd recognized him and felt sorry for Donovan.

“Y-you’re a Baldwin?” Donovan uttered in shock.

“You found that out too late.” This sentence was just a part of the rely. Arlo raised his hand and swung it hard.

“Pa!”

Before anyone could react, a hard slap landed on Donovan’s face.

“Whoosh!” He was blasted to the side. Pushed by Arlo’s tangible Aura, the door to the auction house opened up. A second later, Donovan was seen flying out of it like an arrow and pinning into the tree like one too. His head was buried in the tree’s trunk!

“Lord Arlo, please spare my family’s young master.” Artie bowed to him and pleaded.

“That’s not for me to decide.” Arlo threw out these words as he walked back to the Private Box.

Artie raised his head and pitifully glanced at Roy.

“You’re excused.” Roy pitied this lad because he was serving a trash can, and thus he let him go. Not to mention, the heavy-handed consequences he promised were already served to Donovan by Arlo.

“Thank you.” Artie thanked him and then waited for him to go away before standing up and walking out of the auction house in shame.

Artie was a gentleman, and he closed the door to the auction as he went out.

And then.. he saw what had become of Donovan.

‘This bastard has always been the cause why I had to lower my heads to others. If he wasn’t my master’s son, I would have hacked him.” His eyes blinked as he saw Donovan trying to push himself out of the tree but failing to do so. ‘He’s stuck in a tree and immobilized and blind. He can’t see a thing. Even if I kick him in that place, he won’t know. He has already harmed too many innocents, ruining their purity. It will be the best of both worlds if his meat sticks shatter. Let’s do this!’ Artie went up to him and kicked his balls hard with everything he got

Crack!

Today, someone’s ball cracked, and someone became a lifetime eunuch.

Artie was certain that the Lord of Sores would be happy to hear that his son, Donovan, had become a eunuch for life.

After all, he had tried to cut off his son’s manhood three times, but time and time again, he was stopped by Donovan’s mother, which was basically the lord’s wife.

Telling him about his son losing his manhood was fine. It’s just that Artie would have to hide that this was done by him. That way, he would get to keep his job.. and life!
