It didn't take that long for people to start leaving the auction venue and going into separate ways after the auction was over.

Meanwhile, Bagley suddenly arrived in the room where Leo and the others were at as he took them towards the place where he would be getting the eight pieces of Evergreen Seed that he had won in the bidding and the total income that he had earned from selling the two carcasses of the Beast Lord Sandpit Worm and the Sandstone Lord Spider.

As the Elves Secret organization offers the utmost secrecy possible to every transaction in their auction, Leo and his group walked inside a narrow hallway towards the direction of a door at the very end.

This hallway was connected from the room they were staying in and no one would be able to detect anyone inside the hallway as the Elves Secret organization installed many different Magic arrays to prevent such a thing from happening. Only someone with a 5th Galaxy level cultivation could be able to breakthrough from the Magic arrays they have installed. Though, if they indeed do such a thing, they will still get detected by the Elves Secret organization nonetheless, thus offending them. To be honest, it's not really worth the effort in any possible way, so it's much better to just simply follow and respect the rules.

Eventually, Leo and his group arrived inside a room, and the person that greeted them made all of them surprised.

Sitting on a chair behind the table was the woman that they have been watching during the entire time of the auction.

"Did I surprise you?" Madam Flores asked with a smile on her face while motioning her hand to let Leo and his group sit down on the chairs prepared for them.

"I really didn't expect that the President of the Elves Secret organization would actually come personally to complete this transaction," Leo said as he sat on the opposite chair to Madam Flores.

"Honestly, I am also surprised that the Guild Leader of the Mischievous Lion Guild is actually just a young man with a 1 Star level of cultivation. If it's okay for me to ask, what's your real identity?" Madam Flores expressed her surprise.

"You can just call me Mister Loki, Madam Flores. No need to bother about my real identity," Leo replied with a respectful tone in his voice.

Unlike Eugine that he had met before in the Alchemist Association, Madam Flores doesn't have any String of Fate connected to him. This simply means that there Fate isn't that much of an important for the Fate Cube to create a String of Fate for her.

Therefore, it's not a really wise idea for him to tell Madam Flores his real identity. Though it's actually possible for a String of Fate to be created between them, but until then, he would not do any risky action less he cause himself trouble.

Moreover, this is no longer the Lionheart Kingdom, so he can't just casually reveal his secret to the President of the branches of a powerful organization like the Elves Secret organization. He can't repeat what he did back then with Madam Silva, the President of the Sword and Magic branches in the Silver Kingdom. At that time, the main reason why he wasn't afraid of her knowing his secret was due to the Mischievous Lion organization, at least aside from the fact that she was also a trustworthy person for him.

As for Madam Flores, he doesn't know her that much yet, so it's much better to remain cautious.

"I understand," Madam Flores slightly nods her head in understanding. Since Mister Loki doesn't want to reveal his identity to her, then there is no need to force him. But of course, that doesn't mean she would just give up on knowing more information about him.

"Anyways," Madam Flores didn't bother beating around the bush. She waved her hand, quickly taking out the eight pieces of Evergreen Seed that Mister Loki had won in the bidding and the 78,400 gold coins he had earned from selling the carcasses of the Beast Lord Sandpit Worm and the Sandstone Lord Spider.

"We have only taken 20% percent share from your total gross profit of 98,000 gold coins. Normally, we take 30%, but since you have spent 1,624,000 gold coins in our auction, I decided that it's best to cut 10% of our share in order to establish a good impression to you, Mister Loki," Madam Flores explained without hiding anything.

"Then I accept your friendly gesture, Madam Flores," Leo replied before waving his hand, quickly taking the eight pieces of Evergreen Seed and the 54,400 gold coins inside his Storage Ring while leaving 24,000 gold coins on the table as the payment for the Evergreen Seeds he had bought.

"Since we are done with all of the transaction here, it's time for me to excuse myself, Madam Flores," Leo said as he stood up from his chair.

But before he could turn around to make his leave, Madam Flores unexpectedly motioned her hand for him to seat down again.

As he doesn't want to be disrespectful, especially to the President of the Elves Secret organization branches in the Emerald Tree Kingdom, he decided to sit down again.

"Don't leave that quick, I still have something to offer to you," Madam Flores said before clasping her hand together and putting it on top of the table. She then continued, "I have a question,"

"What is it?" Leo curiously asked.

"What do you think about the Doombringer?"

Hearing Madam Flores' question, Leo was immediately stunned. Not only him, Cassandra and the others behind him were stunned as well.

"The Doombringer? Hmmm... It should be an extremely powerful Magic weapon, and would definitely be helpful to me and my entire Mischievous Lion Guild," Leo replied his honest opinion about the Doombringer.

"Then how would you react if you get the Doombringer?" Madam Flores raised another question.

Despite being surprised, Leo still shook his head and replied, "I don't mean to offend you or the Elves Secret organization, but for me at least, getting the Doombringer is the same as personally sending an invitation letter for trouble to come into my house. In simple words, it's troublesome. Don't need it, don't want it,"

"Even if you can get it for free?" Madam Flores asked while tilting her head a bit and looking straight into Mister Loki's eyes.

Seeing this, Leo felt a bit uncomfortable as he decided to ask, "No need to beat around the bush, Madam Flores. Just go directly to where this conversation is going to,"

"Hehehe," Madam Flores can't help scratching her cheeks after hearing Leo's reply. She then said, "Please don't misunderstand me. I just simply want to give to you the Doombringer for free,"

"This..." Leo was immediately rendered speechless after hearing what Madam Flores really wanted to say to him. To be honest, he was already expecting this was going to be the case, but actually hearing it come out from her mouth still made him felt disbelief.

If he had heard some other people saying that they were given a powerful Magic weapon with a Magic stone imbued on it, he would have treated it as nothing but pure nonsense or a funny joke. But right now, and even experiencing it personally, he can't help but feel like this is nothing but a dream, or at most, Madam Flores is joking with him.

The room quite down to a pin drop silence. Madam Flores continued waiting for Mister Loki's reply, while he was feeling disbelief at her words.

At the side though, Chief Lago, Dan, and old man Torre suddenly began laughing awkwardly to create some noises inside the quiet room.

They don't really know exactly whether Madam Flores was actually joking or not, but the most important problem right now was to break the silence of the room. If this continues on, they might just stay in this room until the very next morning.

Obviously, they can't allow that to happen as it would disrupt a lot of their plans. That's why they're making a way to make Leo pull himself together or to make Madam Flores speak some words, even if it's scolding them for interrupting their conversation.

Fortunately, after a few minutes of time passes, Leo was soon able to pull himself together.

Leo turned his head to look at Madam Flores as he asked, "What's the catch?"

Madam Flores smiled before shaking her head and replying, "There's no catch,"

Suddenly, Leo's face turned serious before he said, "For you to be so relentless on giving away the Doombringer to someone, even to the point of pricing it at 1 copper coin at the auction and later giving it away for free to me, it's absolutely impossible for it not to have any sort of condition. After all, we are talking about a powerful Magic weapon here. I believe... No, to be exact, everyone here believes that no one would just casually give that away,"

"Trust me, there's really no catch, condition, or whatsoever," Madam Flores quickly denied Mister Loki's assumption. What she's saying right now is indeed the truth. The Headquarters of the Elves Secret organization only told her to sell the Doombringer no matter what. There was no mention of any catch or whatsoever to whoever buys it.

"Okay... If there's really none of those, then why should I trust you?" Leo said with a mischievous smile on his face.

Only a fool would believe Madam Flores' words... No, even a fool wouldn't believe such a thing.

Just who in the Celestial World would just give a powerful Magic weapon to someone for free without any given reason or explanation, at all?

No one would do such a thing. Even giving a beggar a bit of money has a reason or explanation to it, not to mention giving away such a big thing.

If Madam Flores doesn't explain her reason to him, then he'll just treat this as if it has never happened at all.
