Chapter 2: Charity Bid Wars.

Genting Highlands Resort World, a famous landmark of Pahang, Malaysia. It serves to be one of the best tourist attractions of the country, known for its great indoor facilities and entertainment along with the cold air of the mountain itself. Events had been held inside its numerous event halls, from concert to speeches.

Today, a lot of billionaires were attending the Global Auction Party in this place. They are not only coming for collections but for showing who's pocket is deeper.

"HELLO LADIES AND GENTLEMEN!!! WELCOME TO THIS YEARS' GLOBAL AUCTION PARTY IN GENTING HIGHLANDS!!! I BELIEVE EVERYONE IS READY TO GET THEMSELVES TREASURED, ALSO OFFERING CHARITIES FOR THE ONES WHO NEED HELP!!! I BELIEVE ALL OF YOU WERE READY TO SHOW WHO'S POCKET IS DEEPER?!" The host had brought up the whole atmosphere.

"Dad, I don't think we were supposed to do this. It's just like gambling..." Said a messy tipped walnut-colored hair and a handsome looks teenaged boy. "Your father wouldn't join events that I shouldn't be, plus that this event has been authorized by the Union through centuries." Said his father who was a man with the same colored undercut ponytail hair and hairy beard. The boy accepts the explanation reluctantly. He took a glance around the hall, he saw someone familiar in the hall too. He begins to text him a message through his smartphone.

"Wanna chill outside, Fen?"

"Sure why not? This place disgusts me. Our 'Dads' were busy gambling, so let's go!" He replied.

Just when he decided to went outside, his father grabbed his hands. "Dad?! Come on! Can I go walk around? This place had more things for me to do!" Said the boy. "Uh Uh, I know you're going to find your boyfriend. Stay here, I want to teach you how to play mind games. You'll need it in the future, which would help your career a lot." Said his father. "Ugh.....Fine." He sighed in disappointment. "You can go after this whole event ends, I believe you can do it better than those girls the same as your age up there right?" His father points right at the boxes above. There are a pair of twins sitting obediently side by side their mother and talking to her with laughs, seemingly enjoys the event. "Duh.....I know. Mr. Ares Bravesong..." He is annoyed about being competitive.

"Alright everyone, here comes our first antique! It is the Vision - The Sword of Lian Tong Fa, The very first Slayer in 1957. Started from $1000000 Citro Dollars, you may begin to raise!" The sword was a magnificent artifact, it may not be a shining one but everyone knows how valuable this sword is. "$1500000 Citro Dollars!" Someone begins to raise the bit. "$2000000 Citro Dollars!" Someone follow up too. "$4000000 Citro Dollars!" One of the twins suddenly raises the bid. "Are you joking?! This is not a kid's game!!! I'm not wasting my money on this!!!" Some people felt shocked when seeing a girl simply yelling numbers. But her mother was not worried at all, instead, she wants the situation to go like this.

"4000000 going one!" Most people were giving up this antique. "4000000 going twice!" The price seems to head to the woman's side. "$4500000 Citro Dollars!" Suddenly, a blond man with smooth short hair raises the bid. "Oh ho ho! That is the Loki I know!!!" Ares begins to warm up, ready to join the mind games.

"4500000 going one!"

"Sorry Naki...I won't go further for your sword collection..." The girls' mother comfort one of them. "Never mind mom, I can replicate one back in town!" She's not disappointed by the results. "Now excuse me, girls, you might wanna help your mom to play some games..." The mother also warms herself up, knowing that this auction will be thriller than any year. Because Ares Bravesong and Loki Worvick are not some simpletons.

"4500000 going twice!"

"Sold!" The sword now belongs to Loki Worvick. "I believe this is a misusing state fund, old man." Said Loki's Son Fenrir. "What makes you think that son? Does charity come in misusing? Scandinavia is now in a good state, do you know that Africa is the most needed country right now? They were suffering to be surrounded by Sumemons who consumed most of the land for centuries, they need a lot of help of funds and resources." Said Loki in a calm tone. "Pfft..." Fen is not happy at all. He keeps looking at his boyfriend on the other side, the boy who messaged him - Davis.

"The next we had a rare antique came from our G.S.O. Archaeological Associations recent diggings from the wilds. Named Derrin Compass, a beautiful compass made out of rare jewels. Starting from..." The auction continues, but people started to give up after losing in the mind games of Ares, Loki, and the woman.

"Eye of the Ocean is sold to Sakura Yuka!"

The three had tied every time, the next also the last item will be the game point.

"Finally, our last item! The Crystal Easter Bunny carved by the great craftswoman Alix Titus since 1957, legend says that she only carved one in her life. This is the one and only Bunny she carved!" Everyone was amazed by the beautiful and smooth Crystal Bunny, but they have given up when they heard the price.

"Started from $10000000 Citron Dollars!"

"Mom! It is Alix Titus' work!!! Can I get it?!" The other girl was excited to see the great craft. "Relax Zuki, If you want it...Then mommy has to win this game..." She awaits for Ares and Loki's move because they must guess that who has the least bid, once confirmed she can easily win the bid with the two billion in her hands.

Ares gave Loki a salute as a greeting, but he greeted him with a grin.

"I fold!" Ares forfeit surprisingly. "What? Dad?" Davis was confused. "I had enough today, plus, I'll show you why I'll be lost if I stayed." Said Ares.

"One Billion Citron Dollars!" Loki makes his bit.

"Zuki, do it." Yuka left the job for her daughter again. "Two Billion Citron Dollars!" She called. "WOAH?!" Everyone cannot believe that Yuka did large bidding.

"Two Billion going one!"

"Four Billion Citron Dollars!" Loki called. "WHAT?!" Everyone except Ares was shocked when he said that. "What the heck?! Old Man?!" Fenrir could not believe it as well. "Eh...Mom, If we could..." Naki tries to suggest to her mother. "No, I lost. I won't do that to your father. Sorry Zuki, no Alix's bunny." Yuka forfeits as well, keeping her two billion. "Oh...Never mind mommy. It's just a crystal bunny. I prefer plushies!" She took out her key chain plushie and play for a while.

"Four Billion going one!"

"Four Billion going twice!"

"SOLD!!!"

"Old man! That is completely out of the border!!!" Fenrir yelled at his father. "I'm not bluffing. Your mom wants me to spend the five billion she gave in this auction as a charity." Said Loki. "Dammit!" Fen still trying to condemn his father but he couldn't find a thing.

"How do you know...?" Davis asked his father. "Don't you notice? Loki had prepared well for today, he knew someone besides me would join the game. He knew I'm the least already when I tried to greet him calmly, from the grin he has shown to me. He forces Yuka to bid all of her money with his guts, by throwing a seemingly full but decoyed number. Then he won by throwing it all at last." Ares explained. "That's quite amazing....." Davis felt impressed by the mind games.

"This year's Global Auction has ended with the last item being sold to Mr.Loki Worvick! Thank you for your kindness and participation today, Hope to...WAHHHH!!!!!" The host was scared when he saw the Bunny begin to move itself. "What on earth...?!" Everyone also shocked when seeing this. "Don't let it get away!!!" Davis and Fenrir leap immediately to the center, trying to stop it.

"WHAMM!!!!"

"OOF!!!" They both crashed together. The bunny seems to be hold by an invisible entity and quickly runs away after dodging the two boys. "Mom! The bunny!" Naki called when seeing the scene when they are about to go collecting their loots. "Invisibility! My dreamed peculiar!" Said Zuki. "I don't expect this to go ham..." Yuka sighed in laughter.

Everyone was too scared to stop the bunny. The bunny also disappeared immediately in invisibility. "Get it!!!!!" Davis and Fenrir storms out the hall. "I guess the boys finally got their free time." Ares took on Loki's shoulders. "Let's go, we don't know what they will cause on their own judgment." The two fathers walk outside the hall calmly. "I don't think something good will happen if those boys got the thief. Naki, Zuki, both of you won't ignore it right?" Said Yuka. "Leave it to us, mom!" The twins went outside the hall.

As the boys came to the center part of the building, the came across a huge crowd of people in the whole place. "Dammit, how are we going to find this son of a *****!!!" Fenrir cursed loudly. "Lower your voice Fen! If you want to swear then muttered yourself!" Davis could not withstand his attitude.

"Things about to get crazy..." There's a boy sitting at one of the tables at Kluckys, a fast-food restaurant. He took out a piece of card-like paper, it shows 'Shock the person who holds this card' on the first side. "Just a few more moments..." He looks at his watch and waits, waiting for the best moment to take his move.
