Chapter 78: Tradition (1)

As the auction ended, the remaining guests were left in shock and slight stupefaction at Otto's wealth.

The eyes of a few members of the crowd glinted.

They took out their communicators and quietly whispered a few words.

It was unknown what was going through their minds.

A couple stared at Otto as if he was a delicious prey.

Otto, for his part, took in the various expressions of the people around him and laughed inwardly.

He didn't deny that there were inevitably some dangers in exposing such a vast sum of wealth to others.

It was likely that it would attract some unwanted attention from the powers-that-be in Area 1.

Not to mention the organization behind this so-called Golden Club.

But Otto was also hoping it served as a form of deterrence against those who might be aiming for him.

They would think to themselves,

"What else does this man have up his sleeves?"

Otto smirked.
