After breakfast, I carefully reviewed the proposal Yura had sent me and made a few suggestions.

Tonight’s charity gala was held at the Fostrau, a five–star hotel.

As the event’s organizer, Yura had been at the hotel since early morning, ensuring that everything was in place. When I arrived, I simply greeted her before settling into a quiet, inconspicuous corner.

At exactly 8:00 p.m., the auction officially began.

The host’s voice carried a rhythmic cadence as he announced, “Welcome, everyone, to tonight’s charity auction, hosted by Loe Studio. All proceeds from the auction will be donated to charitable causes. Thank you all for your generous support! We have ten items up for bidding tonight, all generously donated by Loe Studio. We hope each piece finds its destined owner.”

Applause filled the room as the host continued, “Let the auction begin!”

“The first item up for bidding is a Verdant Glaze Bowl from the Eldoria Dynasty. Please welcome our usher.”

A poised and elegant usher stepped onto the stage, carrying a delicate tray with both hands. The host lifted the red cloth covering the tray, revealing a jade–green bowl.

“The starting bid for this Glaze Bowl is 500,000 dollars, with a minimum increment of 50,000 dollars. Interested bidders, please place your offers!”

I glanced at the bowl–it was something my grandfather had once given me as a keepsake.
