"Gustav Alveron? I didn't expect him to bid that high," Merlin muttered in surprise.
Two Mythic-tier items and three Legendary ones—clearly an excessive offer. For a fox girl, giving up five items like that didn't seem worth it.
Yet Merlin's surprise soon shifted to curiosity. He was certain Gustav wouldn't offer the fox princess without a reason.
Could he be hiding something?
Driven by curiosity, Merlin asked, "System, can you tell me what Gustav really wants from that fox princess?"
"[Ding! Requires 10,000 system points to find out! Do you want to proceed?]"
Merlin was stunned. "Ten thousand system points? Are you crazy, System? Are you trying to rob me!?"
Although that amount was nothing to him, Merlin didn't want to lose a single point.
Earning system points had been quite difficult over the past few months, since the System mostly gave him long-term missions instead of short-term ones.
At any moment, he might need a large number of system points, so he had to save them.
