A Sweet Girl Won't Be Fooled By The Villainess - [Vol. 4] Chapter 92

[Vol. 4] Chapter 92: Nothing is Impossible in the World

Upon hearing Amelia mention the auction price for the magical plant, Ifia’s attention indeed immediately shifted.

After a brief hesitation, she guessed, “Um… five million gold coins?”

If it were any other auction item, there might be clues to follow, allowing for a rough estimate of its value. However, for a rare and extraordinary item like a magical plant, it was challenging to gauge its worth. After all, besides its ability to move, magical plants only had some special effects, such as the Misfortune Vine that could create illusions to deceive humans.

However, if that was all, the value of magical plants would be limited. What made them truly astonishing was their ability to summon demons. Even though Ifia came to this world midway, she had spent a considerable amount of time in the Sith Empire and gained substantial knowledge about it.

Aside from faith in the radiant beliefs of the church, people abhorred and feared cruel demons. Yet, they were also deeply convinced of the formidable abilities of demons, even to the point of worship.

Information gathered from various gossips heard from her friend Jessica allowed her to analyze situations. Some families secretly worshiped demons, engaging in transactions to gain benefits, even if it meant sacrificing blood and lives.

On the surface, the nobles harshly criticized and condemned the dealings with demons, but behind the scenes, they were secretly making deals with demons.

This was the reason why, after learning about the appearance of magical plants in the Camus territory, individuals sent by various families, originally seeking legendary treasures, had changed their minds. As a result, the number of outsiders appearing in Camus had not decreased but increased.

Where there’s demand, there’s a market!

Therefore, the amount of gold coins that magical plants could fetch in the auction depended on whether the ability to summon demons was rare or not.

After hearing Ifia’s estimated guess, Amelia smiled without saying anything, leaving Ifia with a shocked expression on her cute little face.

Then, Ifia slowly raised the bid, “Eight million?”

Amelia shook her head, immediately eliciting a sharp intake of breath from Ifia.

Could magical plants really make so much money?

Maybe she was too conservative!

Ifia felt that her heart couldn’t handle too much excitement, so she chose to stop estimating the value of the magical plant in a timely manner. Even if Amelia didn’t say anything now, she would later find out the successful bidding price. However, knowing that the price of the magical plant was not low was incredibly exciting.

Thinking about the Misfortune Vine they found in the underground ice cave, Ifia felt extremely excited. Instead of continuing to stay in Amelia’s embrace, she suddenly stood straight. Excitement filled her as she spun around Amelia in circles.

“Oh my god, oh my god, we’re making so much money, it’s insane!”

Her ecstatic dancing and gestures showed just how genuinely happy she was. Later, Amelia directly raised her hand, pressing it on Ifia’s shoulder to stop the little one’s continued excitement, bringing her back to stand beside her.

Facing Ifia’s sparkling black eyes, Amelia didn’t continue to keep her in suspense, “A minimum of thirty million.”

“Wow!”

Thirty million gold coins!!!

Ifia felt that even if she didn’t eat or drink for three lifetimes, she still wouldn’t earn that much!

Although she had brought back a considerable amount of gold from the Taric Kingdom before, when converted, it wasn’t even close to ten million gold coins.

Of course, Ifia was content, having more than enough. When she first arrived, she was eating black bread in the slums!

Now, she was a small rich woman. Of course, she couldn’t compare to the true tycoon, Amelia.

For the auction in the Camus Town, all the income from auctioning the magical plant belonged entirely to Amelia. Even the other members of the Barlen family had no right to share in it.

Moreover, the magical plant with a minimum price of thirty million gold coins will be sold in a quantity of ten!

Thinking about this, when Ifia looked back at Amelia, she couldn’t help but exclaim—her good friend was just too rich!

She felt like bragging about her to the whole world!!!

Ifia’s expression was so obvious that she couldn’t hide what she was thinking, and when Amelia saw it, she immediately chuckled twice, then raised her hand to lightly tap Ifia’s forehead. It was a signal for the little one to stop overthinking.

After her forehead was tapped by Amelia, Ifia quickly raised her hand to cover it, and at this moment, she asked a question that was on her mind, “Amelia, can the magical plant fetch such a high price because the ability to summon demons is very rare?”

If you were to ask who the smartest, most knowledgeable, and most beautiful person in the Sith Empire was, Ifia would undoubtedly say Amelia’s name without any hesitation!

Therefore, upon hearing Amelia mention the minimum of thirty million, Ifia immediately believed it. Her question about summoning demons was just out of curiosity.

As for whether Amelia knew or not?

Of course, she knew.

In fact, without betraying Ifia’s trust, Amelia immediately provided a detailed explanation.

“Well, some nobles in the Sith Empire once used living sacrifices to summon demons. While some succeeded, most faced backlash. Instead of forming a pact with demons, they ended up losing their lives.”

“The uncertainty in various demon summoning methods makes it difficult to know which demon will be summoned and what kind of personality it possesses. For example, if you’re fortunate enough to summon a succubus, aside from losing some life force, there won’t be significant harm.”

“However, if you summon some cruel demons, it’s a matter of life and death! Unless you form a pact with the demon, there’s no basic guarantee, and you might be killed by the demon at any time.”

Amelia’s understanding of demons was detailed, and Ifia found it fascinating. At the same time, she appreciated those who summoned demons. Because Ifia herself didn’t dare to do such a dangerous thing.

Even if they desired power and wealth, it seemed too extreme to risk their lives. Of course, perhaps it was because Ifia, being a laid-back person, didn’t understand such aspirations and was more inclined to take it easy.

“Using magical plants to summon demons is very easy. There are rules that bind, ensuring that demons won’t harm the summoner, facilitating the formation of a pact.”

“So, Ifia, you should understand now, the value of magical plants!”

After listening to Amelia’s explanation, Ifia quickly nodded repeatedly. If she still didn’t understand after such a detailed explanation, she would consider herself a silly pig.

No wonder, even if they didn’t believe it, people from various squads all came when they heard about the magical plants at the auction. Moreover, those families in Darwa City were truly going all out to summon demons.

Tsk tsk, but it was precisely because of these families’ unwavering determination to summon demons that they were giving money to them!

Thinking about this, Ifia didn’t continue talking to Amelia. Instead, she happily looked down, ready to continue enjoying the excitement of the auction.

However, during their conversation, the auction had already continued.

The intense bidding shouts never ceased.

“I bid twenty million gold coins!”

At this moment, a familiar voice sounded, and Ifia raised an eyebrow, looking at Kurt who was making a bid.
