Jacob from the Dark Realm Returns novel Chapter 40

What?

Just as everyone was thinking that Driscoll would get the ginseng that had been living for a thousand years and had its own soul, someone made another increment.

They simultaneously shifted their gazes on the source of the voice as they were all curious about which big shot would dare to compete with Driscoll regardless of his family background and identity. What’s more, this person was really rich!

But when they saw who that person was, they were so shocked that they almost vomited blood.

How came… How came that it was that brat in the corner again!

He was still wet behind the ears!

The audiences were all ready for the show why gloating at Jacob in heart.

Hey man, you can just sit in a corner. Do you have enough money to pay for it?

Can you afford the consequences of offending Driscoll, the young master of the Black Dragon Gang?

Nevertheless, the auctioneer was quite happy as he was quite delighted to see the increments in the bidding price.

As for the matter of whether if this brat could not afford it and would refuse to pay for it after the auction…

Alas. Such kind of thing wouldn’t happen in the Divine Land Auction House.

“Good. Man, you have your guts!” Driscoll turned around and shot a glance at Jacob, thinking to himself.

But they were in the Divine Land Auction House after all and Driscoll didn’t dare to violate the regulations to threat Jacob in public. He could just shoot him a murderous look!

But Jacob simply ignored it.

“Seventy million.”

Driscoll grit his teeth and made an increment of ten million.

‘It’s just the matter of money. Let see which peer in the South Riverside Province can compare with me in this term!’ Driscoll thought to himself.

Other bidders were all shocked by the price and then sighed in heart, ‘God Damn it! Young Master Driscoll is really rich!”

Or more exactly, Driscoll really could allocate a huge amount of money!

The clans of the nobilities present were also rich. However, with their identity and status in the family, they were not eligible to allocate such a huge amount of money.

Not to mention them, even if they were the patriarchs of the family, they could not spend seventy million at will.

“Seventy-one million.”

Jacob cried the price again.

The hall was obviously overwhelmed by silence again as if even the sound of needle dropping onto the ground also be heard clearly.

Undoubtedly, this man was targeting at Driscoll!

Who was this man?

You were just a man from an insignificant and powerless family who could only sit in a corner, how dared you to offend Driscoll!

We really admired you!

There were traces of complicate emotions in the eyes of those bidders as they glanced at Jacob.

There were admiration, sympathy, pity and gloat.

“Eighty million!”

Driscoll was quite determined to win this ginseng as his grandfather was wounded. That was the reason why he intended to bid this ginseng that had been living for a thousand years to please him.

As for the young man who was sitting in the corner, Driscoll had sentenced him to death in his heart.

‘Oh man, you want this? Then I will give it to you.’

‘But I’m afraid that you may not be able to afford the price.”

He would get it back after the auction.

‘You are just a man from a humble family, how dare you to snatch things from me? Then I will teach you a lesson about the consequences of offending me, Driscoll Donald!”

“Eighty-one million!”

This time, everyone managed to remain composed after hearing the price.

This was no longer the matter about money and the value of the item.

They just wanted to see how that arrogant brat would die a miserable death.

“Ninety million!”

Driscoll cried out the price almost with his teeth gritted.

He didn’t intend to make any increment anymore this time. Just let that guy be a sucker.

Nevertheless, this time, the young man who was sitting at the corner, didn’t chime in.

“Ninety million, going once!”

“Ninety million, going twice!”

“Ninety million, sold!”

The auctioneer was ravished with joy. Even if out of his high professional quality, he managed to conceal his emotions, one could easily discern his excitement through his voice.

Driscoll finally realized what had happened when he heard the word ‘sold’. Why didn’t that brat make an increment again?

He originally planned to quit after that brat made an increment.

He instantly understood that that brat had got him into a fix.

“Ahhhh!” Driscoll was irritated and screamed in his heart.
