A Destained Young Master Villain

Chapter 23 The Butterfly Effect [Part 1]



Zen arrived at the store he had bought from online. He picked up all the items that he had ordered, and after that, he went on his way.

He was currently roaming around the public square. Buildings such as courthouses, city halls, churches, performing arts centers, markets, and even street food stalls could be seen here.

He was admiring the architecture that was used here, as it was very unique and different. Back on earth, the architecture used was Contemporary architecture, which used unconventional forms, innovative materials, and sustainable building practices.

But in this world, architecture has a greater focus on renewable energy, transportation solutions, smart home energy management systems, and public service analysis.

These are built to respond to the needs of institutions, companies, and their inhabitants more efficiently and effectively.

Each building also had a very distinct style, mixing different styles together to form one beautiful structure or building.

It would normally look messy, but these buildings were perfectly made to match the styles used and mixed together to form one beautiful piece of art.

In fact, the whole area was like a piece of art. The buildings also looked very advanced and had a sci-fi feel to them, but they also had a feel of fantasy.

After admiring the buildings, Zen continued to walk and smelt something quite appetizing. He glance at the direction where it was coming from and walked towards it. He stopped in front of a stall that was selling street food.

Zen looked at the vendor and asked, "Hello, sir, what is this food called, and may I please buy one box?"

The vendor responded, "Ayo, young man, this is called bonbons, and it's only 2 CDR for one piece. The box has about ten pieces, so that's going to be twenty CDR."

Zen then took out 20 CDR from his dimensional ring, handed 20 CDR to the vendor, and waited until the food was cooked.

While Zen was waiting for his food, a boy and a girl who both looked to be twelve years old walked right past him. They were both walking towards where the auction was going to be held.

Zen was still watching the man cook the bonbons in a molded pan and was curious because the food had a weird smell but felt very appetizing. So he asked, "Sir, what is this bonbon made of?"

The vendor spoke up and said with a proud smile on his face, "Er, you go, young man, it's finished, and as for what's it made of… The inside is filled with minced Rabittu meat, minced chicken meat, green onions, and pickled ginger."

"The outside is a wheat flour-based batter. It is covered in my special ingredient sauce. I am proud to say that it is the best food I have made so far."

He was eating the food while listening to the man's long explanation.

The vendor then again questioned, "So howzit, young man?"

Zen responded, "It is very delicious, the inside is smooth, but the outside is crispy and gooey. I'm delighted with the taste." He proceeded to give the man a thumbs up.

"Hahaha, well, come back again next time, young man." The vendor said this while laughing, feeling satisfied with what Zen told him.

After that, he went to a sitting area and sat down to finish up the food he had bought. After finishing his food, Zen also headed towards the auction house, which the boy and girl earlier went to.

After arriving at the doorway of the auction house, a security guard stopped him, feeling suspicious, as Zen was wearing a mask.

Even though it was not uncommon when attending an auction, as wearing one could avoid trouble. The guard still asked Zen for identification, just in case.

Zen then pulled out his phone, and a hologram appeared showing the crest of the Duragny family. Other than the identity as the young master of Raverdieu.

Zen can also be considered one of the young masters of the Duragny family because his mother was the Lady of Duragny.

Although he could also use the Raverdieu crest, he was not willing to take the risk of exposing his identity. Because who else in this world would have the Raverdieu family crest other than Zenryx, who was also the same age as Zenryx, No one!"

After seeing the crest that appeared, the guard bowed and said, "Thank you, young master of Duragny, but do you need me to arrange one of the VIP rooms for you or what?"

Zen then said, "No need, it's too much of a hassle. I'll just find a normal seat to sit down in."

After hearing his response, the guard hurriedly stepped out to the side, clearing a way for Zen to walk through.

After entering the auction room, he examined the room and saw that it was very spacious. Zen then found a seat that was empty with no people. He sat at the top back center of the auction room.

There were also VIP rooms located above each corner of the room. Zenryx would be able to get one of the VIP rooms easily with his status if he wanted to.

There was simply no need to be so high profile right now, and the process to get it was such a hassle to begin with, so he just found a normal seat.

While waiting for the auction to start, he scrutinized the room for the second time. His gaze landed on a boy and a girl sitting next to each other in the front row. It was none other than Edward and his sister, Crystal!

He was not really surprised that they were both In Mevouires territory. The twilight zone forest was located near the Mevouires territory.

So it was easy to guess where these two brothers and sisters would've gone next when they left the twilight zone. But what shocked him was why they were currently at this auction.

As far as he could remember, there was no auction scene in the novel that Edward attended.
