After the auction was over, the auctioneer, Mr. Del, took him to their office. There, he was treated like a VIP guest.
While Neo sat on the velvet-cushioned sofa, the auctioneer brought his manager into the room.
The manager, a sharp-eyed man named Mr. Von, entered the room and nearly stumbled when he saw the dark, shimmering metal resting on the coffee table. He quickly realized he was in the presence of a true Beyonder.
"Mr. Neo, it is an honor," Von said, his voice hushed with reverence. "Mr. Del has informed me of the... unique nature of your assets."
Neo remained silent, reaching into his pocket. With a casual flick of his wrist, he produced a second bar of Dark Adamantite.
The two bars sat side-by-side, their combined weight totaling approximately 5 kg.
The room fell silent. Mr. Von's fingers flew across his tablet, calculating the current market fluctuations for A+ tier materials.
