Single Wish: Rise Of The Omniscient Paragon

Chosens, Elders, Guardians, and invited Underworld residents all sat in the hidden auction house of the Underworld Emporium.

The most elite organizations like the Celestial Spirit Empire, the Mortal Empire, the Supreme God Empire, the Supreme Sword Sect, the Divine Spear Sect, the Martial Clan, and the Aurora Holy Land sat in the top most seats of the Auction House.

Below these organizations were organizations like the Heavenly Wind Kingdom, the Scorching Sun Kingdom, the Supreme Sea Kingdom, the Mage Association, the Artisan Association, and the four Temples.

Meanwhile, the remaining organizations sat beneath them, at the lowest row of seats.

Although some Chosens and Elders of these organizations like the House of Dragons, the House of Phoenixes, and the House of Vampires were displeased by the seating arrangement of the Underworld, they knew that complaining and arguing about the seating arrangement was pointless.

The only thing that mattered was their purchasing power. Underworld auctions were a rarity, however, what was more rare was an auction organized by the famous Calista.

Calista was famous for the collection of her treasures that could even cause the greed of Immortals. An auction that's held by the famous Calista was sure to contain priceless and powerful treasures.

Seated in the lowest row of seats were Divine and Fatty Black Bonez seating beside one another, and seated in another corner of the Auction House was Corey disguised as Anon.

Murmurs and whispers flew around the Auction House and Anon who sat with his right leg placed on top of his left leg and his arms folded heard everything that was being said in the Auction House.

Although most conversations were concealed by spells, skills, or items, Anon could hear everything that was being said with his Ears of Omniscience.

Some individuals spoke about the money they had on hand, what exactly they wanted to buy in the auction for themselves and for their organizations.

Some spoke about random topics that was of no interest to him, however, there was a particular room that Anon was interested in, and this was the room of the Temple of Flames.

Seated in the room of the Temple of Flames were four individuals.

Three of the four individuals were familiar. One of them was the Pipe he was all too familiar with, and the remaining two were a man and a woman he had encountered outside the Underworld Emporium.

When he saw them in the past, he lost control of himself and his killing intent leaked out at the man.

He was certain that they sensed his killing intent, but because he was a Tier 1, they ignored him. However, after the Battle of Chosens, he had a feeling that the duo would have reported his strange actions to the Pope.

He had no idea if they were for some reason, they were able to figure out his identity and knew that he was on the hit list of the Temple of Flames.

Apart from not knowing any of this, he also wanted to obtain any information at all on the Temple of Flames.

However, the last individual in the room of the Temple of Flames was a stranger he knew nothing of.

The individual was an extremely beautiful woman with short violet hair, golden reptilian eyes, two long curved black horns with runes on them, and two swords on her back.

The woman wore black baggy trousers and a tight fitted white T-shirt that showed her perky breasts. Around her neck was the pendant of the Temple of Flames, two black axes that was crossed against one another.

The woman was the only one that sat beside the Pope while the other two individuals whose names he got to know to be Max and Sarah, sat behind the Pope and the woman.

The woman was a Tier 4, and through his senses and instincts, he knew that the woman was extremely powerful and dangerous.

Anon was already a Tier 3, but for his instincts and senses to tell him this, he knew he had to be wary of the woman.

He recorded the woman in order to obtain the woman's information and status screen, however, it was taking longer than usual for him to record the woman.

In fact, he could not get her name and Anon was instantly baffled.

Anon was confused by this because it did not take nearly as long to record Pamela and obtain her information, and he was absolutely sure that Pamela was stronger than this woman even though both of them were Tier 4s.

'Who the hell is she? She didn't participate in the tournament of the Battle of Chosens, and I doubt she would have died in the Shattered Dimension of the Old Ones.'

'Is Divine wrong and she's actually a Guardian or an Elder of the Temple of Flames?'

'Regardless, why is it taking so long for me to see her status screen?'

{Because she has a very powerful artifact on her that can hide her status screen from even gods.}

A surprised light flashed in Anon's eyes when he heard Chucky's voice in his mind. Chucky rarely spoke to him, instead he always spoke to the main clone he left in his Perceptual Nexus Repository.

Anon glanced at the woman for a second, and then he furrowed his brows slightly.

"So, will I be able to see her status screen or not?"

{You'll only be able to see her name and affiliation. Getting her other information like her Class, Talent, Race, and Physical attributes is not going to be easy at all.}

{The treasure she has on her is extremely powerful}

Immediately Chucky said these words, Corey saw the name and affiliations of the woman.

'Her name is Tessa Liora, and she's affiliated with the Temple of Flames and... The Demon race?'

'So she's a Demon?'

Corey's eyes flashed with suspicion but then he shook his head slightly as he rejected the thought of her being a demon.

'Although I've never encountered a Demon before, I doubt she's one... She feels more like a... Chimera... An amalgamation of different species in her body.'

'Tessa Liora huh... I guess I'll be careful around her.'

Corey pushed the thoughts he had of Tessa to one of his Stars of Consciousness, and he continued focusing on the discussions between the other people in the auction house because nothing was being said in the room of the Temple of Flames.

Less than an hour later, an extremely beautiful lady in a red and golden dress appeared on the stage of the auction house.

The moment the lady appeared on the stage, the auction house became silent and shock and surprise could be seen on the faces of most people because the lady was known to all of them.

The lady was Calista, the Manager of the Underworld Emporium.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the auction would begin now."
