Lord of the Karmic Fate

Chapter 59 [Bonus Chapter] Diamond Badge



Inside a spacious room filled with all kinds of luxurious items and antics, a long table was seated in the middle with six chairs on either side while and a single sofa at its end.

In each chair, people wearing black suits sat with straight backs while on the leather sofa a man with a rather fit body sat calmly, his eyes closed as he was seemingly relaxing at the moment.

That man was Goran Vernize, the current chairman of the Star Treasury and also one of the few members that enjoyed all kinds of privileges at the very top of the United World League.

Knock~knock!

"Come in," Goran spoke with a tranquil tone, giving one an impression he was a person with great patience.

"Master Goran, Mr. Alexios is here." opening the door and walking inside, the old man in the elegant suit stepped to the side and allowed Alexios to enter the room.

In that instant, all the eyes fell on him, making him feel a somewhat invisible pressure fall on his shoulders right away.

On the sofa, Goran slowly opened his eyes, revealing a pair of emerald gazes that seemed to be as calm as the sea, but also just as dangerous, depending on how deep one wished to look.

"Care to explain to us what happened, Alexios?" after a small duration of silence, Goran locked his fingers together on his lap and asked, his voice just as serene as his gaze.

Feeling as if every eye wished to pierce right through him, Alexios took a deep breath to calm himself down, and once he was ready, he began to talk.

"And that is what happened. I have no excuse, I just simply wished to help the Star Treasury. I am well aware of what rules I have broken so I will accept any punishment." Alexios lowered his head once he finished talking

The room fell into silence. No one talked or moved and the only thing that was heard was the occasional fluttering of the curtains just behind Goron on the windows.

Then, almost as if by mutual agreement, the room broke into wild laughter, shocking Alexios deeply.

"HAHAHAHA!"

"This..." Alexios was speechless, not understanding why were his superiors laughing so wildly, almost as if they have just heard the greatest joke in the world.

The only one who didn\'t laugh like crazy and only chuckled was Goran, looking at Alexios for the first time with amusement.

"S-Sir... Did I perhaps... say something funny?" Alexios asked with a scarcely flushed face, feeling rather uncomfortable and awkward at the moment.

Goran, leaning forward and placing his hands on the table shook his head and said, "No, not at all. We just didn\'t expect you to say those last words, that\'s all."

After saying that, Goran stopped laughing, and although he still held a smile on his face his gaze turned serious, he pulled the small box from beside him in front of him and raised its lid, revealing a small diamond badge within.

Instantly, Alexios\' eyes widened, and he had to force himself from almost howling toward the sky from the sheer excitement he felt at that moment.

While people could bid for items on the online website, there was also te chance to attend the physical auction in Night Star City which was held every single night and was overseen by an actual Auctioneer!

However, here in the Star Treasury, different ranks between Auctioneers could be acquired depending on the amount of money they were able to bring to the auction house.

Bronze, Silver, Gold, Diamond, Obsidian, and Fluorite. These were the ranks an Auctioneer could acquire throughout their lifetime within the Star Treasury.

Of course, it was needless to say that the badge in that small box, which was made out of pure diamond, represented the Diamond Rank with which one not only could hold auctions but also gain 15% of the total amount of money gained throughout the night!

That meant if he had that badge with him and sold an item at an auction, he would get a 15% share which, although didn\'t seem a lot, when he sold items for millions it was a massive amount!!

"So you do recognize it, good." Goran\'s smile widened and nodded with satisfaction before he closed the lid, "This badge will be yours, but before that, I have a task to give you. Naturally, only if you are willing to accept it."

Alexios snapped out of his daze the very moment he saw the lid closing on the box and with an insanely serious face asked, "What do I have to do, Sir?"

Goran nodded once again as he was even more satisfied with Alexios\' attitude and said, "I don\'t know who this Anony Mouse is, but he or she seems pretty interesting. I also found out that they do not belong to any guilds or any big families as even they are just as shocked as we all are."

"And that\'s why, if you wish to hold this badge, find that individual and deliver him that envelope personally." Goran waved his hand to which the butler on the side moved and handed Alexios a golden envelope.

"Do you think you can do it?"

Holding the envelope that was sealed with a purple star, Alexios raised his head and nodded firmly.

"I will do my best, Sir."

After winning, Raven quickly ran into the Black Moon Guild and just like previously retrieved his package from the lady hurriedly.

"Finally! It\'s here!" smiling while holding the box, Raven ran hurriedly inside the Realm Domain where he summoned his Collector\'s Gloves and once the bottle was in his hand he duplicated it.

p "I should have done this way sooner..." Raven mourned over his past mistake and with one motion poured both bottles\' contents into his mouth.

[Congratulations! You have increased one of your Avatar Traits beyond 60 points!]

[Congratulations! You have successfully become Rank 6!]

"Damn, that feels good!" gasping for air after he swallowed the last drop, Raven sighed with relief as he felt how the itching sensation finally vanished from his body, no longer feeling as if hundreds of ants were crawling under his skin.
