"900 gold coins!" Miss Death's emissary said in a louder tone, making Sim tremble with anger.
"910!"
"1,000 gold coins!" She shouted as she stopped herself from standing up.
"1,010!"
"1,100!" She yelled.
"Since you want Fear Anise so much, keep it. It's not that important to us." Assistant Temple Master Sim said after receiving the night's highest bid so far, forcing the woman to pay 40% more than Fear Anise's fair value.
There was silence after his words as the auctioneer finally banged his gavel, securing Fear Anise to Miss Death's representative for the trifling sum of 1,100 gold coins.
What were 1,100 gold coins? It was 1.1 million bronze coins, enough for an ordinary 1st-stage human to pay their basic bills for a thousand years!
Even with special resources, such a person could live for 200 years at most. That would be enough for a weak family to pay their bills for at least 5 different generations!
