Again, a magical scene appeared.

The seed sprouted and broke through the soil under everyone’s watchful eyes. Then, within just a few moments, it bloomed into a radiant rose.

“Oh my, this flowerpot is really unusual…”

“Yes. It seems like a magical item from at least five thousand years ago…

“What’s even more rare is that it’s been preserved so perfectly.”

II II

Watching all these, the spectators began to speak highly of it.

Even Leonard Churchill was highly interested.

The flowerpot might not be of great value, but it’s certainly very rare.

In this world, it’s doubtful if a second one could be found.

Once Baron Ramon had started, others also brought out their own collected items.

“This is my Andre Family’s hundred-year-old heirloom, Alice’s Dream Music Box, which is fantastic for inducing sleep…”

“This is the Giant Beans that my Commerce Guild found in a relic, supposedly seeds of an ancient deity’s tree…”

“This is the most sophisticated clock I’ve ever seen, Baeliel Ill’s Pocket Watch, which I purchased with a hefty sum…”

One by one, each item was presented.

While none reached the level of a relic, they were all extraordinary antiques with special effects.

Looking at these various peculiar objects, Leonard had his share of exposure.

However, he mainly observed and occasionally gave compliments.

Despite possessing many true relics, he played the role of Charles, a down and out nobleman, having nothing worthy of display.

As each exhibit was brought out,

Leonard still wasn’t sure whether this was a normal noble collector’s exchange or someone’s scheming set-up.

It wasn’t until half an hour later that Baron Ramon brought out a collector’s item that made Leonard truly understand the deep implications of this collector’s meeting.

Of course, the best items were saved for last.

Baron Ramon stood up again, once everyone had displayed their collections.

“Now, I will display a very special item.”

Upon hearing this, all eyes turned towards him with curiosity.

At this moment, two young maids, holding a painting shrouded in a wine red silk, entered from the outside.

The attires of these maids were more eyecatching than the painting.

They wore transparent gauzy outfits, almost revealing their entire bodies. These outfits were not only sexy and attractive, but also characteristic of a particular era.

Leonard had read many ancient books and knew that these sexy gauzy outfits were a distinctive attire in the court of the Taren Dynasty.

The Mad King Augustus was fond of beauty, and the maids in his palace were all dressed in these nearly naked gowns.

Seeing the attire of these two maids, Leonard guessed that the collection might be an antique of the Taren Dynasty.

Sure enough, Baron Ramon had excellent taste. The moment the two beautifully figured maids appeared, the ambiance became more enchanting.

The group of fat old noblemen couldn’t help but comment and discuss, not hiding the desire in their eyes.

The sight made Leonard excited as well,

But he couldn’t help thinking.

If everything went as he had anticipated, some traces should be revealed now.

The maids were just an appetizer.

Baron Ramon lifted his hand.

The young maid lifted the silk off the painting.

The subject of the painting was a portrait.

Judging by the magnificent palace in the background, it seemed to be a portrait of an ancient queen or some other important figure.

The marvelous part was, despite her face behind a light veil, one could still perceive the woman in the picture to be exceedingly beautiful.

The painter seemed to have used some kind of mystical technique to portray the mysterious beauty and allure of this woman, even after thousands of years. Baron Ramon also introduced it in time: “This painting is called ‘The Montini Queen’s Golden Necklace’. The unsurpassed beauty in the painting is said to be Queen Montini, the wife of the last king of the Taren Dynasty. This painting also possesses a special magic. It can make a person experience utmost pleasure. Please relax and appreciate it carefully…”

Upon hearing the name of the painting, Leonard noticed the golden necklace worn by the woman in the painting.

Although for him, no matter how exquisite a painting or how monumental the piece work was, it was not that attractive.

However, as soon as this painting was revealed, his gaze was immediately drawn.

For, a scene filled with magical colors was just about to unfold.

As he was observing, the figure in the painting came to life!

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, the woman in the white gown, veiled in white, gracefully stepped out of the painting.

The scene was dreamlike, leaving a sense of astonishment as if a beauty had walked right out of a history book.

The spectators were dazzled, seemingly entranced in an irresistible dreamlike environment.

However, this is when the eeriness began.

As soon as the woman stepped out, a notification appeared on Leonard’s Enlightenment Panel.

‘You have been exempted from the hypnosis of the Mysterious Technique ‘Pleasurable Dreamscape’.’

‘You have been exempted from ongoing faith contamination.

If he was unable to exempt, i.e., he had unknowingly been ensnared, he would’ve been oblivious.

Leonard had Joker to exempt faith contamination.

He also had the rare relic from Reuel Bible at X Bureau that can resist the Mental Secret Skill of Silver Moon Leader, thus was exempted from the Mental

Secret Skill.

Among the people in this room, probably he was the only one who could perceive the anomaly.

While everyone in the room watched in fascination, Leonard also acted similarly entranced, keeping an appearance of being besotted.

But in his mind, he was certain-this Baron Ramon was affiliated with the Silver Moon Sect!

Or perhaps there were quite a few in the room who were.

Looking back, Leonard was certain that, starting from the time Alice’s Dream Music Box was presented, he had been part of the game.
