I felt those gazes pierce through the glass overlooking the hall and land directly on me. They weren't hostile, but they still sent a cold shiver through my body.
I raised my head from the guests and stared at the dark glass, unable to see who was on the other side... but I could feel him.
It only took a few seconds before he finally looked away from me. I did the same and returned my attention to the large hall below.
Hundreds of nobles and wealthy people moved about there, and the faint noise of their conversations reached even the place where I was standing.
As the auction's starting time drew closer, many of them began taking their seats. At the same time, all the other private rooms filled up, and two more Rank 6 arrived.
Five minutes before exactly seven o'clock, everyone was already seated. Only a few servants stood along the sides of the rows, while my other teammates could be seen in the corners of the hall.
