I Become Baby Mafia Boss

Chapter 489 – “A Scheme”

Thus, the young master's family thought of trading the island with a potion that clearly was more beneficial for the young master to become stronger.

They thought that they won a good deal since the Sloan Family was still weak to explore the island, anyway.

The island would be useless for the Sloan Family too!

Little did they know that Ainsley already rubbed her hands excitedly as she planned to visit the island sometime in the future, maybe after she roamed the country while establishing family branches here and there.

An island that relies on one's luck to get treasures? That's her speciality!

After securing the deal, the auction continued. Marietta tried to auction the second bottle of energy-line condensing energy.

"The base price is still the same as before. Anything worth $3.5 million. Start your bidding– now!"

However, unlike the previous bidding when those smaller big shots on the first floor were the one making a move, this time, those on the second floor were a step ahead.

"Dylan Family. A Pegasus Feather. Worth $3.6 million."

When someone said this from the second floor through the microphone connected to each room, the whole hall went silent.

Those on the first floor, who were about to bid higher, suddenly stopped.

It's the Dylan Family. One of the 7 sacred families!

Who would be dumb enough to raise the bid when they're going against the Dylan Family? Even if they bid higher, it would mean offending the Dylan Family, and the smaller big shots didn't want to risk that.

Thus, no one on the first floor continued to bid. Only those on the second floor did.

"Fellow brother from the Dylan Family, giving a Pegasus feather worth $3.6 million is too little, isn't it? The last bidding for the first potion is actually close to $100 million in value, right?"

Someone from the room next to Dylan Family's room spoke casually.

Of course, the mysterious island was worth $100 million, but the original value was only $20 million or so since if the owner couldn't exploit the island, they would only suffer from all the losses.

But the person saying that didn't seem to 'know'.

The young man next door chuckled as he looked down at the state through the one-sided window glass on his VVIP room.

"Brother Dylan, allow me, from the Yefta family, to bid higher. We offer the underworld panther's shredded fur…worth $3.7 million!"

When the others heard the young man, they sucked in the cold air.

Another family from the 7 sacred families!

As if it wasn't enough, another family chipped in.

"Our Fraun Family offered a piece of 1000-year-old Fenrir's claw, worth $3.8 million!"

The Fraun family was also from the 7 sacred families!

One by one, those from the 7 sacred families bid for the second bottle of energy-line condensing potion, but something didn't seem right.

Even those on the first floor could also feel something strange going on.

$3.6 million. $3.7 million. $3.8 million…

All the items they offered only differ by a bit in terms of monetary value.

Unlike the previous bidding session, where everyone raised the price by a lot, this time, they only raised the price bit by bit.

Not to mention that…the items they offered…sounded ridiculous.

A pegasus's feather? The Dylan Family is close to the Aretha Family. Of course, it will be easy to acquire a fallen Pegasus feather.

For the Dylan Family, it's not even worth $3.7 million even when the actual price of a Pegasus feather in the market was indeed that high!

A pegasus feather could be used to craft flying-type items, thus making the price unreasonably high. But the 7 sacred families didn't lack a pegasus's feather…

They had Vallan with them, a horse with a pegasus's bloodline!

Even if the little pegasus wasn't really legendary since he's still a sacred beast, his feather still counted as a pegasus feather, right?

Then…the Yefta family offered a shred of fur of the legendary underworld black panther…isn't the Sloan Family's second sacred beast a descendant of the underworld black panther?

Surely they had his fur way back when he fought in the war against the other families, right?

It's not hard to get just a shred of fur that was rumoured could revive the dead. It's just a rumour, so the price wasn't impossibly high.

But the market price was indeed that high, about $3.7 million, due to the rarity and the mysterious effect.

But…in this case…it…sounded so inappropriate?

Especially when they offered it to the Sloan Family who owned the real sacred beast who's a descendant of the underworld black panther!

And what's with the last family, the Fraun Family from the 7 sacred families…they offered a 1000-year-old broken Fenrir claw…

It was clearly a humiliation to any Fenrir descendant since their ancestor in the past lost a bit of their claw to the humans and somehow the Fraun Family owned the fragments.

And now they dared to offer the claw fragments to the Sloan Family who had a sacred beast with a Fenrir bloodline?!

That…isn't that an insult?!

If the guests realised this, how could Ainsley not? The baby was already trembling hard as she glared at the rooms on the second floor.

You guys are trying to buy the potion cheaply while also giving us insulting items? Is this how those from the 7 sacred families work?

I shouldn't have allowed them to attend!

Ainsley let the 7 sacred families, aside from the Aretha Family to come, all because she wanted to pressure them by showing her family's capability in the potion field.

Now they wanted to humiliate her?!
