"You do realize that I will be doing you guys a favor and not the other way around?" I asked the auction house director whose's negotiation was making me reconsider helping him.

"Master Wyatt, are you not satisfied by my offers? If you have any demands please say, I will see if the auction house can achieve it," the Auction house director knew his stuff, he acted to be accommodating when he was trying to screw me over without me realizing it.

"Let me repeat myself, I agreed to auction my cards in your auction house as a favor, so it is given that I will not be charged handling fees and will be provided with the card ingredients. Don't f.u.c.king try to underestimate me because of my age. Your next offer better be genuine and show your gratefulness otherwise I will leave," It was cute how the auction house director felt that he can negotiate with me when it was they who need me and not the other way around.

Listening to the boy the auction house manager's eyes squinted, wondering if all the younger generation were so capable. First Chris Ainsworth and now this boy, can he not get a win today?

"Master Wyatt" the auction house manager was about to speak a few flattering words to the boy and make a new offer but he was interrupted by Ann, "Get out and make arrangements to hold the auction next week."

"No, postpone the auction by two days," I suggested to Ann.

"You confident you can get the cards ready by then?" Ann asked in doubt.

"I have already designed the required card creation array formation, as long as I have sufficient ingredients I can start creating the cards," I a.s.sured Ann

"Great," Ann exclaimed and the glaring auction house director, she said, "You heard him, I believe you know what to do next?"

"Leave it me, Your Highness," the auction house director said confidently as this was right up his alley. If he failed to do even this, then his life until now would be in vain.

After the auction house director left, Ann asked the boy, "So what is it that you want?"

The reason Ann interrupted the auction house director's negotiation with the boy and sent him on an errand was that the auction house director did not know the boy well enough to successfully negotiate with him.

This boy was someone who tricked Anna into signing a one-sided soul contract turning the entire southern royal family into his bodyguard, then he outsmarted the devil into giving him the power he need to save his life for free. The wrath-filled screams ofBelphegor as he was dragged back to the dark realm were still fresh in Ann's ears.

There was no way, the auction house director would be able to win a negotiation against someone who was capable of such feats. So, Ann threw him out having decided to just give the boy what he wants in exchange for his help. Hopefully, it will soothe his anger toward the royal family, especially her grandma.

"I want you to sell me 50 devil-grade ingredients, at present I don't have the money but I will use 10 percent of my shares in the Silver Milk Powder as collateral. That should be fair right," I spoke my demand

Agatha who was silently listening to their conversation on the side, learning the boy's demand, suddenly felt her knees go weak, and taking the support of the wall she sat on a nearby chair.

Regaining her calm, she wondered if the 10 percent of the boy's share of Silver Milk Powder was even worth 30 devil-grade ingredients. If it was before the Freedom fighters stole the only known source of sliver milk then it would have been worth a lot more than 30 devil-grade ingredients however now they would not even fetch a single devil-grade ingredient but if the central government manages to get the Gate Dungeon back from the freedom fighters then it would be a different story.

After the only known source of Silver Milk was stolen by the freedom fighters, the central government did not waste time and immediately spread everything they knew about the Southern Royal family's Silver Milk Project and their deal with the boy to other world leaders, to rally them all against the Southern Royal family and force it to give up its exclusive rights of silver milk powders production and supply. So it was not surprising that, as the demiG.o.d Windsor's trusted retainer Agatha knew about whole Silver Milk Powder overdeal.

"Make it 20 devil-grade ingredients and you will have to pay us back within 10 years along with the compound interest rate of 3% per month. In case you fail to do so we not only reserve the right to claim 10% of your share of silver milk powder that you used as collateral but will also cease a part of your remaining shares to make up for our losses," Ann counter-proposed, the condition proposed by her did not favor the boy, it was as if she wanted to make sure the boy would not be able to pay her back.

Agatha was surprised that Ann was considering the boy's offer. But listening to the condition put forward by Ann, Agatha felt that Ann wanted to use 20 devil-grade ingredients to take control of all the boy's share. Now that was a cold-hearted move.

"Make it 50 devil-grade ingredients and you have a deal," I was not angered by the conditions put forward by Ann, because she used the condition to show Agatha and others who would hear about this deal later to not get any funny idea about silver milk powder project and its shares in my hands.

I say this because the Southern Royal family was doing everything in its power to ensure that the Silver Milk Powder project was up and running before the central government and the allies get the only known source of silver milk back from the Freedom Fighters.

That would mean if I managed to deliver on my promise to create a dungeon similar to Silver Beach Gate dungeon, within a year the silver milk powder will hit the market. And by the next decade, I will be the wealthiest man in this world. Not to mention, I will be able to pay back the Southern royal family within a year after the product enters the market.

What Ann was doing was not any different from what I did in Leo's case. I could have politely rejected Leo but I yelled at him, spoke rudely of the royal family, and created a scene, all this just to give people watching the impression that not everything was good in my partners.h.i.+p with the Southern Royal family. Yes, I was a little dissatisfied with the royal family but not to the point I showed earlier. This should keep the hyenas at bay till I am ready.

"No, 10% shares aren't enough as collateral for 50 devil-grade ingredients, I will consider it if you raise it to 20%."
