Luck is a Charm

Chapter 123: Golden Eye

As the formation that is spread around the auction house started blinking, the crowd remained oblivious to the situation.

None of them were suspicious as they waited for the final auction item.

However, Zen's group was the only one who remained alert all this time since they knew it would begin as soon as they finished auctioning the final item.

Or it could be even faster as they have lost patience already.

"Aren't you going to investigate?" Krista Dragoon enquired since Zen was still embracing her shoulder.

She wanted to fling him off already but gave up due to the relentless and shameless behavior of him.

Zen smiled slightly and shook his head in response. Surprised, Krista Dragoon narrowed her eyes as she exclaimed, "Are you really this lecherous that you refused to do the important task ahead of you?"

She would be speechless if Zen preferred to take some petty advantage when danger is approaching very soon.

Zen had a gawking expression when Krista Dragoon believed him to be a useless person that only indulged himself in women.

Taking a few moments to cool down, Zen decided to let her witness the abnormality herself.

"Krista, try and see if you can activate your magic spell," Zen said.

Krista Dragoon raised her eyebrow slightly in confusion but nevertheless, she grabbed her wand.

Afterward, she tried to chant some spell but a disbelief expression soon occurred on her face.

"I-I can't cast my magic." Krista Dragoon said, stuttering as she looked at Zen who remained calm.

"You knew about this?" Krista Dragoon asked in an angry tone.

"Nope, I only realized it just now when Evie sent me a transmission through this communication tablet," Zen replied calmly as he wasn't the one to notice this.

He was just informed about magic being disabled in this auction house when Evie received the Soul Replenishing Herb.

Of course, this was most likely the formation surrounded in this place that has some restrictions placed to prevent any resistance.

After all, they had planned this for a long time and if their teleportation formation was canceled because of the advanced mages in this area then their efforts were all wasted.

However, they have miscalculated one main factor. A factor that will ruin their entire dream and plan.

That person was none other than Zen as restricting his magic is completely useless to him.

Zen was no longer just a mage. He was a true qi cultivator with an essence flame in his core that could activate as he pleased.

Not even a restriction spell could prevent the summon of his essence flame unless they are at the level of those in the higher world.

"What are we going to do now?" Krista Dragoon asked herself before deciding to stand up, pushing off Zen's arm in the meantime.

Afterward, she tried to walk to the door and open it to leave the auction house as soon as possible.

However, right as she held the handle of the doorknob, Zen stopped her and hugged her waist.

"What are you doing?" Krista Dragoon shouted in surprise. 

'He's not planning on violating me now in this situation right?' Krista Dragoon became pale as she was currently powerless and if Zen was to pounce at her now, she could only watch as he penetrated her purity.

Zen was fuming mad when all she had in mind was about him doing something indecent.

'This woman definitely has a screw loose in her brain.' Zen cursed inwardly when Krista Dragoon continued to struggle to lose herself from his grasp as she wanted to escape.

"Stop moving around," Zen ordered in a solemn tone.

Krista Dragoon gritted her teeth as tears slowly fell from her eye. Meanwhile, Leila Dragoon was sitting in complete confusion at the scene in front of her.

'Why is Sister Krista crying when Zen is just holding her back here?' Leila Dragoon asked inwardly but decided to stay silent.

She could see that Zen had no malicious intent and that he has a clear conscience because of her left eye.

Leila Dragoon has two different colors in her eye as the right eye has a black and normal color. But the left eye was golden and it was known as the god's gift to her birth.

An eye that can see a person's integrity which means she has seen many hypocrites in her life at a relatively young age.

With her unique golden eye, Leila Dragoon has shunned everyone that has a nefarious and malicious scheme toward her. There was no way she would allow those kinds of people near her.

Thus, she could only rely on her sister who genuinely cares about her safety and is willing to shelter her from all those hypocrites.

"Leila, help your sister out and push this scumbag away from me," Leila Dragoon was still in a daze until Krista Dragoon shouted for help.

Krista Dragoon was on the verge of sadness as Zen placed her in his lap with her butt raised high.

Leila Dragoon sat and watched the scene calmly. A few moments later she said, "Sister Krista is being a baddie so Zen is conducting a punishment to remind you."

Krista Dragoon's face ashen when she heard the words that her little sister uttered to her.

'Baddie? Punishment? Did Zen brainwash my little sister?' Krista Dragoon glared at Zen fiercely despite having her front body face down on Zen's lap.

Zen was also surprised by Leila Dragoon to predict his intention. "It seemed like that golden eye of yours is not for show, Leila Dragoon."

"Un, this golden eye of mine is sometimes referred to as mystic eye as I can detect a lot of things that normal people cannot see." Leila Dragoon replied softly.

"Leila, stop spouting nonsense with him and help me out." Krista dragoon cried aloud to Leila Dragoon for help.

However, to her dismay, Leila Dragoon shook her head and said, "Sister Krista, you almost made a big mistake if Zen didn't stop you on time. If you had turned the doorknob before, then the formation in this room would activate and explode us."
