Upon hearing the exorbitant amount, Erik could only put a complicated expression on his face, but his thoughts were interrupted once again by his beautiful maid, who whispered to him in a calm and confident tone.
"Young master, that money is an investment made by the young lady and Master Silverwood so they can comfortably show off in front of the other Master-level members of the order, so you can spend it without any worry."
After thinking for a bit, Erik nodded slightly while handing a cookie to both Kaiser and Tiberius, which made Seraphina smile with satisfaction and mischief.

This area was blocked by a beautifully designed wall that perfectly matched the overall design, while also preventing any view inside.
In the VIP room, Princess Firestone could not help but display an angry expression upon seeing the man 'directing' a defiant look at her, while she quickly manipulated the holographic screen. This was followed by a bid announcement in the main hall.
"30 million."
