Legacy of the Betelgeuse

(Two weeks have passed in real-time.)

Nothing interesting happened for the last two weeks except for one thing. The Maelstorm of Abyss dungeon is now the main attention of the players. The Supremacist Clan still couldn't clear the last phase of the dungeon. They only managed to clear the first two phases. The dungeon has 3 phases, the first phase is the calm phase, where the whirlpool is circling calmly. The monsters' levels are below 150 and the boss is nerfed to match with the difficulty. The boss can use a certain amount of skills and it's easier to defeat. The second phase is the strong phase, where the whirlpool is starting to moves fastly and the radius is bigger. The monsters' levels are below 250 and the boss is not nerfed and can use all the skills. The last phase is the thunderstorm phase, where the dark cloud is formed above the whirlpool and thunders striking down the whirlpool. The monsters' levels are 500 and above. The boss is getting buffed and it's impossible to kill without knowing the mechanics of the dungeon.

Emma and I barely play since there's nothing else we want to do at that moment and enjoy the time in real life and spend the time to see what's happening in here, but most of the time we spent just lazing around the house and watch movies. William is also had to go to college and write an essay. The rumors about Forsaken- Clan is going to be disbanded is already spreading through the community and people have been asking about it in the forum. Fortunately, we who know about this kept quiet and will let Ivonna announce it after the auction. Thanks to the auction announcement, the rumor is starting to disappear.

Today is the day that we have been waiting for. The auction will start in few hours. The three of us log in to the game and go to the base.

Ivonna and the others are waiting for us and they're ready to leave. Francesca is waving at us with a huge smile on her face.

"Yo! Long time no see!"

I can see their equipment got upgraded. They're wearing way better equipment compared to what they were using in the skirmish event. I believe those are from the boxes they got from the event. I wave at them and smile.

"It is, how are you guys doing. I can see you all got upgraded."

They all are grinning except for Ivonna. Then Ivonna looks at the time and nods.

"It's time, let's go to the Kings' Palace."

We all nod and we all go to the Kings' Palace.

We enter the Kings' Palace and there are so many players in here already. Then suddenly a trumpet sound is coming from the entrance gate to the Kings' Palace area. 3 NPCs are walking in. They're the 3 Kings of the strongest kingdoms from the Alliance Kingdoms. Jasvah Truman from the Eynhildr Kingdom, Crefnell Aswar from the Hebraum Kingdom, and Lionel Sephar from the Maryoca Kingdom. So many knights are with them and everyone is giving them a path for them to walk. They're walking toward Ivonna and Ivonna approaches them and bows.

Jasvah smiles and nods.

"We heard about your victory against the other sovereignty. We cannot express our excitement and we are so proud of you. There is something that we want to discuss with you."

Ivonna is surprised and it seems that a notification appears in front of her. She looks and reads it for quite a while and then she looks at Francesca, Francesca only shrugs. Ivonna then looks at me and she's hoping to give her some kind of reaction. I just shrug and smile at her as well. If she got acknowledge by those three kings, she's pretty much already achieve the beginning of the main story of the Alliance Kingdoms. Ivonna clicks something on the screen. Jasvah smiles and nods.

"We are in need of people like you. You are free to come and visit us if you have anything you need from us. Until then, farewell."

Ivonna then stops them and asks,

"There's something that we want to ask. Can we use the palace for today? Because we are going to hold on an auction for the players around the Orion today."

The kings are looking at each other and then Crefnell nods.

"We are allowing it. Have fun with the auction."

Ivonna nods and thanking them, then they leave the palace.

The three kings then leave the palace and everyone is looking at Ivonna with disbelief because she's the first player that interacts with the ruler. Even the players from other factions haven't interacted with the emperors. Ivonna then announces the auction in the forum. The auction will be held inside the palace and those players that want to join the auction and bid for the box are invited to the palace.

(10 minutes before the auction started.)

A group of players approaching Ivonna. We all can tell that those players are newbies by the look of their equipment. One of them then raising his hand.

"Miss Ivonna, we are from the news media companies. We would like to make a documentary and report of the auction, and the auction will be the headline news tonight."

We all are surprised and Ivonna nods.

"Sure, you're all very welcome."

They all smile happily and then thank her. Ivonna then looks at us.

"Let's enter the palace. It's almost time for the auction to begin."

We all nod and enter the palace.

We look around inside the palace and there's a perfect place to hold on an auction. It's a theater with hundreds of seats in it. There are also VIP seats on the second floor. We all agree to use this place for the auction. Then we are preparing the stage and put the box on a fancy-looking table we found in the backstage.

Grisell is staring at the box while humming. We are looking at her and raise our eyebrows. Ivonna tilts her head.

"What's wrong?"

Grisell is still humming then pointing at the box.

"Are you sure this is safe? What if there's someone who wants to steal it?"

Michael is chuckling and then pointing at me.

"With him around here, I don't think anyone would be able to steal it. Even if they did manage to stole it, they won't be able to leave this place alive."

Everyone is nodding in agreement. Grisell then oohing while looking at me.

"Right... I forgot. Never mind then..."

We are chuckling and then a group of players enters the theater. Those faces that we have never seen before are now sitting on the seats and talking with each other. Then another group of players enters the room until it's crowded and there are no empty seats left except on the VIP seats on the second floor. Then we see familiar faces enter the room. Kingstar, Queenstar, Aksevel, and Boschwell. Kingstar and Queenstar are surprised to see there are so many bidders already in the room. Kingstar looks at me and I'm pointing at the VIP seats, he nods his head and then they both find a way to go up there with Boschwell. Aksevel is looking at the VIP seats as well and then follows Kingstar and Queenstar.

Ivonna then announces that the auction is about to start. Grisell is starting her stream for those players outside the palace to watch. The rest of them just standing behind the box while I'm protecting the box at all cost with chained sickles on my arms and a scythe in my hand.

Ivonna then walks forward.

"We will start the auction now. We will start to open the bid now..."

Before Ivonna manages to give the exact price one of the bidders raises his hand.

"Two million dollars!"

Ivonna is surprised and pointing at that guy. Then another bidder raises his hand.

"Two and a half million dollars!"

One by one the bidders bidding their prices. The bid is slowly getting higher and higher. Then Kingstar raises his hand.

"Five million dollars!"

Boschwell scoffs and raises his hand.

"Seven million dollars!"

Aksevel is looking at them and then raises his hand.

"Fifteen million dollars."

A guy raises his hand.

"Twenty million dollars."

All the bidders are gasping and look at that guy. Aksevel is staring at him and smirks. Aksevel raises his hand.

"Twenty five million dollars."

The guy is rubbing his chin. Ivonna then starts to count.

"Twenty five million dollars once..."

"Twenty five million dollars twice..."

The guy then raising his hand.

"Thirty million dollars."

I'm raising my eyebrows with surprise. Aksevel without hesitation raises his hand.

"Forty million dollars."

Everyone is gasping and looks at Aksevel with disbelief. Grisell, Emma, Michael, Hans, and Leonardo are clenching their fists happily. Ivonna then starts to count.

"Forty million dollars once..."

"Forty million dollars twice..."

"Betelgeuse's Legacy Box one is sold to Aksevel!"

Everyone is clapping their hands and shaking their heads with disbelief. Aksevel then walks down and gets on the stage. Everyone is surprised and he approaches Ivonna.

"Give me your bank information and I will transfer the money right now."

Ivonna is surprised and looks at the others. Francesca and the others are nodding repeatedly in excitement. Ivonna then sends her bank information to him.

Aksevel is humming with understanding.

"I have sent you forty five million dollars for the inconvenient."

Ivonna is speechless and nods with understanding. Aksevel then looks at the box.

"Can I?"

Ivonna looks at him and nods.

"Yes, it's yours."

Aksevel walks toward the box and grabs it. He then immediately opens it. A VoW appears in front of all of us.

[Voice of the World]

[Congratualtion to the player [A*****l] for obtaining [Septia's Grimoire of the Fallen] from the [Betelgeuse's Legacy Box I]]

[May the Betelgeuse bless you!]

I immediately choke on my saliva. Ivonna and the others are looking at me with curiosity. Aksevel then chuckles and mumbles.

"This is worth the money I spent..."

Aksevel then looks at me and he's squinting his eyes, then he's raising his eyebrows.

"Oh, I know you. What a surprise."

I smile and nod. Then Aksevel goes down from the stage and goes back to his seat. I write what that legendary weapon does to Ivonna and the others. I still remember this weapon because of how good this one is compared to the other legendary weapons. Even a higher rank legendary weapon still looks bad compared to this.

[Septia's Grimoire of the Fallen: Septia, the queen of revenge. Her hatred against the people of Orion made her realize that she possessed a power that could bring chaos to Orion. She made a book with her power that able to bring the dead come back to life as its vessel. She and her dead armies brought chaos to the Orion, but the Heroes of Orion defeated her, but Septia sealed her weapon and hope someone else could use it and do anything they like with it.

Ivonna and the others are looking at me with their mouths wide open.

Ivonna then clears her throat.

"We still have so many items that might interest you. So let us continue our auction."

They're auctioning the equipment that Grisell made. Honestly, those equipment are terrifyingly good. So many players bid for those and in the end, the auction is going well.
