Silence hung between them for a while—an awkward, tension-soaked quiet.
On one end of the Celestial Network, Raven leaned lazily back in his chair, still grinning.
On the other end, Bumble was trembling so violently that pink droplets of mist were raining down from his fluffy form like emotional drizzle.
[Bumble_Fluff_69]: "S-Sir… we're doomed. We're actually doomed! You can't cheat in the Divine Auction! If we get reported, that's it—we'll be blacklisted! Banned from all trades! Even Grandpa_Hot_Pot can't help with that!"
[Raven]: "You done panicking?"
[Bumble_Fluff_69]: "No! I'm mid-panic!"
Raven sighed and rubbed his temples, the faintest smirk tugging at his lips.
Bumble's worries were not unfounded, as he was familiar with the auction rules.
If those rules were broken, then you had to pay back everything you earned from the auction, and you would be banned from the auction.
But Raven wasn't concerned.
