n”A while ago, just before Marcus arrived with his group, Asher got curious about something and asked the system:

n‘System, does killing the person tied with the opportunity also give me fate points?’

nNo, killing the person who would claim the opportunity will not lead to any fate points unless they are themselves connected to the host’s fate.

n“So, if I go around killing my future enemies, will I get fate points?” Asher asked in his mind.

nYes, but the host should not kill their future enemies with a fate value higher than their own. And I would advise you to take their fate values as much as you can before killing them.

n Killing such a person will cost a huge amount of fate points.

n Killing a person breaks their fate threads and you cannot intervene or benefit from that.

n“What if there’s no ‘opportunity’ to take from the hands of a person?” There were people who were already strong and were directly linked to his fate. There were no other ways to weaken them, apart from killing them.

nThe host can also increase their fate by humiliating others. If the person hates or negatively views the host and the host defeats them in any way, and you can take their fate as your own. Another situation may arise, but the host’s level is too low to access that information.

nThis was a headache for Asher, but he just needed to play around with some people a little before killing them. But seeing that he could get his fate up just by making people hate him, he thought to himself:

n‘Making others hate me is something I was born with, but if I have more fate points than my opponent, I would just kill him to make things easier.’

n‘System, can you tell me the fate points of other people?’ Asher was curious about this.

nYes, if they are in the vicinity of the host, I can calculate the value.

n‘Then calculate the value of the guy that was going to buy the land. What was his name?’ Asher tried to jog his memory and remembered,

n‘Marcus Williams, he was the one who gave Eva this land as I remember.’

n‘What the hell!’ Asher almost broke his indifferent face. His eyes rose and his breathing changed for a moment.

n‘System!! Why is his fate value so high?’ he said in his head.

nDon’t get confused, this is the average value a normal person carries around. It’s just that the host has such a low fate. When I mentioned that every person in this world has at least 100 fate, it meant that even a dying man in his last moments has 100 fate points.

nAsher laughed at himself for assuming something like this without clarifying first.

n‘And here I am with my 84 Fate points’

n“System, can I get some fate points by humiliating this kid as well?” Asher asked while thinking about something.

nYes, but you will only get fate from him this time because his fate is not linked with yours except for this moment in his life. If the person is largely involved in the host’s life, you can get more fate points multiple times.

nAsher picked up the catalogue and saw all the lands in the mountain range that were being sold today. He did not remember exactly which land it was because the Williams family bought the whole mountain range later when they found out about the dungeon.

n‘Seems like I’ll buy everything today,’ Asher thought and ordered Emmy to do something.

n“Emmy, go find out if there’s a person called Marcus Williams attending this auction and find out his motive as well.”

n“Yes, Young Master,” Emmy nodded at his request and disappeared into thin air. Emmy was an A-rank hunter of wind element as her main element. She was greatly talented at spying and collecting information due to her high stealth and movement speed. She could even pick up vibrations of sound waves and hear people from a far distance.

nEmmy arrived after overhearing the talks of Marcus and his group and narrated it to Asher, who thought of a simple plan to humiliate this kid. He told Emmy to sit down and she sat down beside him.

n“100 million AUR,” Asher said.

n“Going once, going twice, sold to bidder VIP Room 1 for 100 million AUR!” Harris announced happily.

n“Moving on, this is the second land of the mountain range.”

n“Bidding will remain the same at 1 million AUR for the rest of the lands as well, and the increment will be 100k AUR,” Harris said while gesturing to his assistant to move the view to the next land.

nThe hologram projection showed the second piece of land and its bird’s-eye view.

nThe bidding started again, but the voice from VIP Room 1 said once again,

n“100 million AUR.”

nThe other people who attended were shocked at who was wasting so much money in this auction, but none of them said anything against him. They knew that a person who could bid such an amount was no common man and one needed to be an idiot to mess with such a person.

n“Going once, going twice, sold to bidder VIP Room 1 for 100 million AUR!” Harris announced.

nAnd the next bid started:

n“100 million AUR.”

n“100 million AUR.”

n“100 million AUR.”

n“100 million AUR.”

n“100 million AUR.”

nAll 7 lands were bought by Asher in this manner.

nMarcus watched this whole scene with a white face. He was angry at the person in VIP Room 1, but he also knew that a person who was capable of spending such money so easily was a big shot.

n“Congratulations to the person in VIP Room 1 for winning the entire mountain range for themselves,” Harris excitedly said, gesturing towards Asher’s room. For other people, only an opaque glass was there, and they could only imagine, based on the voice of the bidder, that it was someone young.

n“Heh, wasting so much money on these worthless lands, he sure is an idiot,” Marcus scoffed angrily. He was saying these things to save face in front of the two girls.

n“I don’t want to use my family name to threaten them, or this guy wouldn’t even be able to buy a single land,” he said while shrugging towards his friend, who was agreeing with him.

nThe two girls were a little put off by his behavior, but they didn’t say anything.

n“Let me reveal the surprise of today’s auction,” Harris announced.

nThe hologram changed, then showed two beautiful villas in Soran. They were beautifully made with expensive white marble and surrounded by beautiful flower gardens with many rare flowers in them. These villas were the dream of many men and women alike.

nAll the guests got excited over them.

n“But, I would like to gift these to VIP Room 1,” Harris’s words made many people angry.

nThey didn’t like this sort of behavior because it went against the whole concept of what an auction was supposed to be. But nobody voiced their dissatisfaction first. Why? Because they needed to know who the person sitting in VIP Room 1 was before opening their mouths. They were all experienced people who had seen enough of life not to make stupid mistakes.

nBut one young man, who clearly wasn’t one to think hard, said,

n“Mr. Harris, this behavior of yours is not ideal. Do you not give the Williams family enough face?” Marcus said, clearly angry. Even if the auction went on, the person in VIP Room 1 was going to win it anyways, but Marcus wanted to save his image a bit.

nBoth the girls were excited when they saw the images of the villas and started saying how much they loved them. If Marcus let it go just like that, he would break his image of a rich young master he just created.

nThe other people gasped after hearing the name Williams. Everybody knew they were one of the elite families and not just anyone could look down upon them. Hearing the Williams family name, some of the people also started voicing against such conduct.

n“It’s right, Mr. Harris, you should value the integrity of the auction,” several people voiced together.

nAsher smiled at the situation Marcus created for him.
