"However, we have no power to grant the auction license to the Sloan Family. We will have to postpone this issue until the guild master comes back in a week."
The Alchemist Guild gave this statement in the end.
Unfortunately, Ainsley had to start her auction precisely in 3-4 days. If she waited for the guild master to come back, she would have to cancel her reservation…
Also, the guild master wouldn't just immediately grant the license, right?
The matter with a legal auction license given to other forces aside from the alchemist guild was the first in history because so far, no one managed to get the auction license.
Not even the Billios Family. But they held an illegal auction, and people would still trust them over their reputation.
Ainsley was trying to do the same thing now. There were many countless illegal auctions out there...and some were famous to be trustworthy.
