Elliot had sold only 5 items that he had already went past the million dollars, there were still 18 to sell and he had arranged from weakest spots when he imagined the fortune he would have after this auction his heart shook.
'Wouldn't I be able to stop hunting after making this much money ?'
But this thought didn't attract him that much, in the recent day he had started enjoying the feeling of leveling up and feeling stronger every time, it had became a kind of joy for him and so he wasn't willing to stop being an adventurer.
On the side next to the platform where Elliot was standing was the guard who he had ordered to pick up the money who was looking at the money flowing on Elliot's account through his phone, every time someone bought an item he would give it only after the money appeared on Elliot's account.
He looked at Elliot with envy.
'Should I also go into the breach ? Maybe I'll be as lucky as this guy who struck it rich in a few days.'

Meanwhile the temperature in the room was higher than ever, everyone was getting heated and wanted to go back with at least an item and so loud yells came from everywhere every time Elliot pulled out an item, of course out of these thousands of people only 23 or less would go back with an item as there was a very limited quantity.
"The next item is a ring called Indomitable Will, although it doesn't have any additional stats it got a very interesting attached skill.
The skill wears the same name as the item and it's effect is as such : After 20 seconds in combat you'll receive a boost of 50 strength and 10 agility."
Elliot had hesitated on whether or not keeping this ring but after thinking about it he had decided it wasn't that useful to him since his class was a sort of assassin and assassins were specialized in short fights.
Everybody who heard that started yelling their prices, in a second it was already over 300 000$ ! Obviously everyone would feel like strength was the best stat to have, very often in RPG games the most popular classes would be either warrior which used strength and defense as their main stats or magicians but he doubted there was anyone capable of using magic.
"890 000$ !"
Everyone looked at the man who had bid so much with surprise, such a big event would obviously attract big names and that person was one of them !
"Isn't that Dan the leader of the elite ? I heard he's really close to level 10 !"
"Yeah that's him, you can't mistake him for someone else because of his tattoos."
"Damn the breach made him a celebrity, I envy him so much."
"Yeah wasn't he in a TV show a few days ago ? My little sister called me and said that another adventurer was being interviewed."
"That's sick, I want to become famous soon too."

At the same time Elliot looked at him and nodded, he had recognized him and even tho he had never talked to him he still felt like that was the minimum of respect he could show.
On the other side Dan also nodded, the permanent smile on his face was still there and was very contradictory with his bad guy appearance.
"Nobody over 860k ?
One time, two times, three times sold !"
/
Time went by and soon Elliot concluded the last deal of the day, his smile was brighter than ever. Today in less than a hour and a half Elliot had made a total of 8 655 000 dollars !
He realized that most people who had bought his items weren't even adventurers but business men, they had probably smelled a good opportunity by buying and selling and had came here to try their luck, to be honest Elliot didn't care that much since he had already made a huge quantity of money.
"Thanks everybody for coming today, I'll let you all know if I ever do another of these auctions so please follow me on social medias."
Everyone left, amongst the huge group only a few had smiles as they left, most people were disappointed they couldn't leave with a good item to help their hunt.
"Excuse me mister Elliot, would you give us an interview? We are HG national channel and we're doing a report on adventurers."
Elliot thought about it and shook his head, although he was curious about how it felt to be famous he didn't have anytime to lose, he wanted to leave fast and look for the best hospital to transfer his mom as soon as possible.
"Sorry I don't have time."
"It won't take lon—"
"No."
Elliot stopped the journalist in the middle of his sentence, he just said no and this person didn't give up. That was something he mildly disliked because it would make the conversation longer than it should be but the end result would be the same.
'I think I'll need to go back home for a few days, I don't want to fall behind on my leveling but I don't have that much of a choice... should ask dad to move here ?'
Elliot left the place after bidding farewell to the guards and went to his hotel room to call his dad, he wanted to have a conversation with him about moving over to Australia so that it would be easier for him to see his family whenever he missed them.
Ring ring ring
"Big brother !"
Just like the last time Tim picked up the phone as soon as it started ringing.
"Hey Timmy how are you doing ?"
"Hehe I'm good, daddy is making hamburgers tonight so I'm happy !"
"Oh that's good hahah, you leave me a share ok ?"
"Haha okay wait I'll tell daddy !"
"Hahahah."
Elliot laughed, his little brother was really too obedient, he would do anything Elliot told him to do without thinking about it.
"Son, I'm happy to hear you're still alive."
"Hey dad, how are you doing ?"
"A lot better thanks to you, I quit one job since I don't need to work as much as before for your mom."
"That's good, you don't need to exhaust yourself by keeping 2 jobs at the same time anymore. You can even quit the second one and live tranquil dad, I make more than enough money for us all."
"Hahah don't be stupid, if I stop working I'll die of boredom, you left the breach ?"
"Of course, I can't call from inside. Dad do you want to move to Australia ?"
"Uh...? Why ?"
"Today too I made a lot of money and so I though it would be better just to live here permanently. I won't have time to go back home often and so I thought of this."
"What about your mom ?"
"We can transfer her to the best hospital in Sydney, it will be a lot better than that broken down hospital she's in right now for sure."
"That's going to cost a lot more money that just 100 000$ son, it's ok we'll stay here it isn't that bad."
"Dad, today I made 8 million dollars."
"Uh...? Sorry ? Did I hear 8 million ?"
