“It wouldn’t hurt to broaden your horizons. This time, the auction is being hosted by Elm, and William will be going with you.”

Earl Arthur wasn’t surprised by Milton Cheney’s choice.

He knew his youngest son had been cooped up in the estate for a while now.

In Earl Arthur’s eyes, there was a noticeable change in Vernon over the past few months.

It seemed he had emerged from his mother’s death, transforming into a restless individual at heart.

Thinking of Milton’s mother, his own wife, Earl Arthur’s eyes became complex.

“Father, does our family host an auction every year?”

Milton asked. The memory of his predecessor had no recollection of any auctions.

“Large auctions aren’t held yearly, so it’s natural for you not to know if you don’t usually pay attention to these things.

The Golden Lion Auction House holds small auctions every month. Large ones generally occur every three years; this year it’s earlier.”

Earl Arthur spoke in response to Milton’s question.

As for the reason for the auction’s advancement, he did not say, and Milton did not ask.

“Father, is there a list of the lots for this auction? I’d like to see it in advance.’ “Yes, there is. Elm is in charge of that, you can ask him if you’re interested.”

Hearing Milton’s enquiry, Earl Arthur replied nonchalantly.

Ten days passed in a blink.

On the final day before the auction, Milton and William arrived at the Golden Lion Auction House, located within the Far East Territory.

The Golden Lion Auction House was a large venue owned by the Golden Lion Family.

The architectural style of the auction house was similar to the European medieval style Milton had seen in his previous life.

The characteristic of these buildings was their magnificent grandeur, with large scale lavish decorations.

From the outside, the auction house looked like a large, covered cage.

The entire auction house was three stories high, all built from marble and granite, giving off a primitive aura.
