Luke exposes the truth about The Holy Spear situation. So that’s it, huh? The Baradam family tried to bite more than they could chew, and now that they tried to outplay everyone, nobody is going to bid on it as a result, which means that the successful bid is going to be made at a low price to deny them the profit from the selling of it.

I already knew that brokers were nasty, but this is on a whole other level. Now I realize more than ever that it wouldn’t be good to make them angry at any circumstances.

Maybe it’s Luke’s way of giving me a warning what is going to happen to me if I do something selfish that I am going to ultimately regret.

「Then, the first lowest bid will be a successful bid.」

「That’s right. Or if the starting bid is going to be too high we might call everything off, but that is the worst-case scenario.」

Wow, they even think that far? But then, if they decide to do that, does that not mean that they’re going to lose the deposits that they made?

I have to say that I am intrigued with the Holy Spear, but if there is so many troubles surrounding it, then maybe it would be better if I didn’t go for it? Yes, it would definitely be bad if I ended up making enemies of the brokers, even if it would be by accident. That, and the bid price might jump up if there’s a bidding war with a guest that would want to obtain the Holy Spear for themselves.

「I won’t bid on it. I just want to watch the proceedings.」

I give Luke some reassurance. My open denial should put him at least a little bit at ease.

But, what if the story that they were refusing to bid was made up in order to throw the potential bidders off? If there is an item you want by any means possible you could simply spread rumors about refusing to bid so that would others changed their minds about bidding as well due to the fear of incurring the brokers wrath upon themselves like I just did. Such a manuever would then allow the brokers to get the item that they wanted at the cheapest price possible without having to do literally anything.

In a way, it would be the same as cheating. This is a narrow world where the collisions of interest are pretty much unavoidable.

Have stories come out about such things? No, probably not, because if they ever came to light then I imagine that it would be a pretty huge deal. Are they brokers who would willingly commit fraud like that?

「Okay. If that is the only thing that you want to do, then you can come to the auction hall and watch the auction. There is a registration fee that needs to be paid when you enter, though that is refunded if you participate in bidding. That being said however, I want to reiterate that you should not participate in the bidding for The Holy Spear.
