[The list of the items in the auction is pretty long, and even if we give five minutes to each item, it will take more than a hundred hours. So there will be different window screens, each having separate bidding.
You will get the item description on your television screen to decide whether you want to buy it. I will be moving to the last section— auctioning houses. I am sure some of you have been waiting for this.
Wait no further and keep your eyes on me to follow the screen. Since we can't show you the houses and the places physically—obviously— we will be showing a 3D hologram which would let you have a better and closer look at the site you want to bid on.
To have an even better experience, grab your television remote and press the yellow switch two times.]
Since Rudy was on the bed and he was closer to the remote, he grabbed it and pressed the yellow switch two times.
The lights in the room turned off, and a blue bulb turned on, which illuminated the entire room.
"What's going on?!" Rias panicked.
"Heh!" Rudy chuckled softly and muttered, "You vampires hate the blue color, don't you?"
"Duh!"
"Eek!" Rudy heard Jane's shriek from the next room, seemingly, they pressed the yellow switch on the remote too.
"Tsk!" Rudy clicked his tongue and said, "I wish I had seen the live reaction on her face. I missed that by a long shot."
"...sadist…"
"How does that make me a sadist?"
[Please close your window for a better experience.]contemporary romance
"How will we watch if we close the window?" Alice wondered but closed the windows anyway.
Alice and Rias got on the bed beside Rudy and waited for Kim's next instruction.
[I will show you a live demo of how this works. Please keep your eyes on the television screen.]
A house appeared on the screen, and the next second, it seemed as though it came out of the screen to the room.
[Normally, you would need to wear glasses to see the 3D hologram, but not here. You can control the hologram through your finger and see the interior. You can inspect every single thing, down to its minute detail.
However, it is to be noted that the place might not match to what's shown in the hologram. For example, the size, color, and the surrounding— as they can easily be changed and not in one's total control.]
[And you can't match the actual size of the place through a hologram,] she added. [But if you feel insecure about your investment, you will be given a chance to visit the site you buy after the party. If you don't like it, you can revoke your purchase, and you will be provided a full refund instantly.
If you have any questions to ask about the places once they are presented, you can use the mic of the television remote to ask the questions to the seller you are presenting the said item to.
Since we are short on time, the seller will be given a minute for the presentation, and the interested bidders will get one minute to ask questions. Please note that only the highest bidders would get a chance to ask questions.
If any of the items from this auction are returned within an hour of the purchase, they will be provided a full refund. Of course, terms and conditions are applied, and you can read them by scanning the QR code at the left corner of the television screen.]
"This is… awesome. I hate to admit it, but the auction in the human world is much better than the auctions I have been to in the vampire and other worlds. This Lu Bela sure knows her stuff," Rias awed.
"The experience is surely the best. I can see why people are always eager and want to be invited to the auctions each year." Alice looked at Rudy and asked, "This event is invite-based, right?"
"Yeah."
Each item took a maximum of five minutes to be sold, and twenty-five houses were sold in two hours.
Rudy grew impatient with every item a house was presented with that was not to his liking. They were great but not great enough to appeal to Rudy to buy them.
Some of the houses were previously owned by celebrities, while some belonged to the royal lineage of all over the world.
The lowest final bid for one of the houses was five billion dollars, and the highest last bid was one hundred and one billion dollars.
Money wasn't an issue for Rudy. Even if he used up all his fortune, he wouldn't be considered poor. Even without misusing his powers to become rich, he could become wealthy.
He once dreamed and made a commitment to become the wealthiest person in the world, and he fulfilled that commitment in no time.
"The auction will run for four hours, and three hours and forty-five minutes have already passed…" Rudy muttered in annoyance.
"What if there are items left to be auctioned even after four hours?" Alice asked curiously.
"They won't be auctioned. But one can talk directly with the sellers at the after-party. Either way, I will not return without buying a house."
"Why don't you buy a random one? We don't need a fancy villa or a mansion to live in. As long as we get our separate rooms, I don't think it matters," Rias shrugged.
"I will be living in that house too, and I want a house that is worthy of me."
He grabbed Alice's phone and called someone.
"What are you doing?" Rias asked.
"I am calling Lu Bela. I don't know how many houses are left on the list, and I don't want to miss the last one. Turns out all the places are sold while I waited for a perfect one," he scoffed wryly.
"Don't let that happen, or I swear Jane wouldn't stop taunting you for decades."
"Yeah… I can see that," he sighed. "Come on… pick up the call, Bella."
