“Ann, don’t you know how to knock?” I asked as Ann barged into the bedroom.
“What the hell are you thinking?” Ann yelled at the boy ignoring his question.
“About what?” I asked Anna to give me more details to understand what she was asking about.
“Didn’t we agree to auction your VR cards during the auction?” Ann enquired the boy, reminding him of the deal between them.
“Yes, we did,” I said knowing what Ann was pissed about.
ραndαsnοvεl.cοm “So what changed?” Ann asked, shoving her grimoire in my face. The page displayed my online store and my two recent posts.
“This doesn’t change anything. I will still be auctioning the VR cards in the auction as promised,” I clarified, though my post was very clear about that.
“If you are going to sell your VR cards at a retail price 12 hours after the auction, who is going to bid for the cards at the auction?” Ann thundered.
Southern Capital’s monthly auction was already on thin ice due to the unfortunate delay, and the only thing it got going for it was the boy’s VR cards so when Ann heard the boy planned to sell VR cards right after the auction she couldn’t help but get pissed at him for doing something which would harm the auction.
Ann did not condemn the boy selling his VR cards 12 hours after the auction, he could sell them right after the auction. She couldn’t care less but he should not have announced it to the whole world. Now the only attraction of the postponed Southern Capital auction had lost its value.
“Someone who cannot wait 12 hours will,” I replied casually while going through the comment section on my two posts.
“Wyatt, this is not a joke. Do you know how many livelihoods are dependent on this one monthly card auction?” Ann could not stress enough how important the monthly auction was for the local and small business owners of the Southern capital. This was important and Ann could not have the boy messing it up with his thoughtless actions.
“Relax, how about instead of auctioning my VR cards at the auction we give them away to everyone that will attend the auction?” I proposed to Ann.
I was not looking to make profits from the VR cards, I wanted many people to equip them as fast as possible. And the people attending the Southern Capital’s monthly auction were all merchants or related to a merchant or influencers, if these people take a fancy to my VR Cards then it will be a lot easier for me to spread the VR cards to various markets. Especially, the influencers, they will be the best way for me to make people aware of my VR cards across the globe.
“What?” Ann exclaimed in shock listening to the boy say he was planning to just give away his VR cards to a bunch of random people for free when he invested about 50 devil-grade ingredients into it.
“You heard me correctly, let us give away my VR cards to those who attend the auction instead of auctioning it,” I repeated myself seeing Ann finding it hard to believe my words.
“Have you gone mad? You invested about 50 devil-grade ingredients in this project and now you want to give its fruits away to others for free,” Ann yelled and she wasn’t done, “Do you have any idea how many people will be attending the auction? At least in thousands, that is despite the debacle but if you announce that you are giving away your new VR cards to those who attend the auction then the number will easily reach ten thousand or even a hundred thousand. Who would despise a free card?”
“Do not worry, the quantity of the VR cards is not an issue, I think I can make ten million VR cards by the start of the auction,” I assured Ann.
I was willing to give all Ten million VR cards away for free if it guarantees that each of them will be equipped by a card apprentice. As my purpose for these cards was higher than making profits off of them.
“No, I am not talking about the quantity, I am talking about your investment in these cards. If you give them away for free to thousands of card apprentices then you will make a huge loss so big that your profits from selling other cards at affordable prices will not be able to make up for them,” Ann spoke her worries to the boy and explained how his idea might help her but it will destroy him.
Suddenly, Ann took a good look at the boy wondering, had the boy fallen in love with her? Otherwise, why would he take a huge loss to help her with the Auction? About time, after all, she was the girl of his dreams, the mixture of conservative and pure Susan and powerful and beautiful Anna. Even so, she could not allow the boy to do something so stupid.
“Do worry about the finances Ann, I have a plan,” saying that I summoned my grimoire and added a new post on my online store, making a splash in the grimoire network, ‘Change of plans people, I will be not auctioning my VR cards at the Southern Capital monthly auction but giving it away to those who attend the party. So friends join me at the auction to get your own VR card.’
“Wyatt,” Ann exclaimed as she saw I made a new post on my online store announcing that I will be giving away my VR cards for free to those who attend the auction.
A few minutes after I made my post announcing that I will be giving away VR cards for free it had already become one of the trending searches in the grimoire network gaining the attention of everyone who was anyone.
