Strongest Mage with the Lust system

282 Stunning the crowd

"That's right. Didn't the city lord say we'll be treated as VIPs with our honourable guest tokens?" Leticia chimed in.

"Right. Let's go then." Max nodded and led the ladies to the front of the row.

"Hey, kid. Where do you think you are going? Don't try to cut in the line; the auction supervisors will punish and ban you from ever entering their auction house."

Just as Max and the ladies headed toward the front, an aged voice sounded from the middle of the line. It was an old human man, so when he saw the group of humans trying to cut in the line, he reminded them out of kindness.

"Oh?" Max halted his footsteps, turned to look at the old man, and smiled, "Thank you, senior, for your concern." After saying this, he turned around and walked to the front of the line.

The old who reminded Max shook his head and sighed, "Young people these days!"

"Grandpa, don't worry. He will soon realise that he should have heeded your advice." A young girl standing right in front of the old man smiled contemptuously as she watched Max and others boldly straddle forward.

"Who are these human people? Don't they know that everyone that wants to participate in the auction has to stay in the line obediently? It applies even more to humans than us elves." An Elvin middle-aged man said.

"How bold!"

"Hehe, don't worry. They will be thrown out of here very soon."

"Yeah, look, the supervisors seem to have noticed them. Let's watch this show as we wait for our number to enter."

"What a pity that these beautiful human girls would be humiliated because of that boy's rashness!"

"..."

When they saw Max's group not standing in the line and going to the front instead, everyone started discussing amongst themselves as they waited for the auction supervisors to humiliate them and throw them out. At the same time, some of them felt sorry for Rima and the others ladies.

Max and the others ignored them as they continued walking. Little Arya, walking in the middle of the group, gloated, "They are so dumb. It would be fun to watch their expression when we enter without any problem."

Leticia, who was walking right after her, giggled when she heard her and asked, "Little Arya, is that why you are hiding?"

"Hehe, you are right, big sister. If they recognise me, they will realise that you guys are not ordinary people. If that happened, how would I see their expressions afterwards?" Little laughed mischievously.

Just as they reached the entrance of the auction house building, two middle-aged elves who wore green uniforms with small badges pinned on their chests stopped them. One was male, while the other one was female.

The female supervisor looked at them coldly and said, "Don't you know the rules of our auction house? How dare you come running to the front?" Although the male elf didn't speak, his gaze was piercing when he looked at them.

Under their cold gazes, Max unhurriedly took out the wooden token with a silver word engraved on it and showed it to the female, "I was told that with this, we don't need to wait in line."

"Hmm?" The female supervisor narrowed her eyes and looked at the token in his hand. When she saw it, her cold attitude receded a little. She then waved her hand, and the wooden pass floated toward her.

When she grabbed it in her hand and infused her Mana in it, her cold attitude completely vanished, and a respectful smile appeared on her face. She gave the token back to him and motioned him to enter the building, "Sorry for the offence, respected guests. Please, this way."

Max put away the token and walked toward the entrance with Rima and the others ladies following after him. However, the supervisor stopped them again.

"What is it now?" Max raised his brows when he saw Belen and others being stopped.

"Dear guest, since you have a silver token, you can bring two other people. However, the rest of them has to stay." The female supervisor explained.

'Huh?' Suddenly, the male supervisor cocked his brows when he noticed little Arya trying to hide behind Rima and thought, 'This kid seems a bit familiar?'

Little Arya seemed to notice his gaze on her and turned around to look at him. When the male supervisor saw her face, his immediately brightened in realisation.

'This uncle recognised me?' Little Arya thought and immediately put her finger on her lips and shook her head, signalling him to keep quiet.

The supervisor smiled wryly and inwardly shook his head, 'It seems the saint girl is up to some mischief once again.'

"Oh, if this is the case...." After hearing this, Max turned to the ladies, who nodded and took out their respective tokens.

"This..." Seeing this, both supervisors gasped in surprise.

Initially, when they saw Max take out his guest token, they thought it was given to him by his elders. After all, Max was quite young and didn't seem someone strong, so in their opinion, it was nearly impossible that the high-ranking officials of the city had given it to him.

After seeing the whole group had a silver honourable guest token in their possession, they realised that this group must have an extraordinary background.

Little Arya giggled in a low voice when she saw their stunned expression.

The male supervisor was the first to regain his senses because he had already noticed little Arya in the group and guessed that they mustn't be ordinary people since the city lord allowed her to roam around with them. He hurriedly stepped forward and respectfully said, "Respected guests, please follow me."

He then led the group inside the building, leaving a stunned female supervisor behind.

Meanwhile, the crowd had already broken out in a commotion when Max took out his token.

"What is he doing?"

"Why is that token? It seems to be an identity token?"

"Is he mad? Does he really think he would be allowed entry if he showed his identity token? Who does he think he is, city lord's son?"

"Hey, the supervisor seems surprised after seeing the token. Is he related to some high official of the city?"

"This... he is allowed entry. He must be related to the city lord, or he wouldn't have been allowed entry so easily."

"Yeah, that must be the case since the supervisors didn't even collect the entrance fee from him."

After the momentary surprise, a few among the crowd who had recognised the token regained their senses.

"I had seen someone with the same token a few years ago. That token seemed to be the guest token."

"What? Guest token? The one that only the city lord has the authority to issue?"

"Yeah. That one."

"No wonder the supervisor became respectful and allowed entry without any entrance fee. It turned out that he has the city lord's guest token."

The crowd calmed down when they realised what was going on. However, when Rima, Leticia and Belen also took out the same tokens, they were dumbfounded.

After a while, someone broke the silence, "This is ridiculous!"

"Yeah, since when the guest token became so easy to obtain?"

"..."

While the crowd was in commotion, Max and the company followed the supervisor.

"Hehe, big brother, did you see the look on everyone's faces when all of you took out your guest tokens? Hahaha, it was too funny." Little Arya laughed uproariously. Her eyes had become teary due to laughing too hard.

Max and others were speechless by this and couldn't help but shake their heads. This girl was too naughty.

'It's no wonder the city lord is strict with her.' The supervisor thought.

"Greetings, supervisor!" After they exited the corridor, a few people in green robes greeted the supervisor.

'These guys must be the escorts.' Max thought.

The supervisor nodded to the escorts and led the group to the stairs leading to the upper floors.

"This..." The group of escorts was surprised by this scene.

'Supervisor is escorting them himself. These humans must have some impressive backgrounds.' They guessed.

...

Under the supervisor's lead, the group arrived at the third floor, where only the VIPs were allowed.

He then asked, "Respected guests, should I assign you only one cabin, or would you like to have different ones?" Although this question seemed useless because all of them came together, he had to ask it since they all had guest tokens and might want to bid on the same things.
