419 417 Demon Stone Auction

The day after he left the Hamulus raid.

We talked to Bermelia, and we were coming to the auction venue as planned. Bermelia asked me to go straight to the auction. Whatever the thoughts of the Marquis Ashtoner family, it seems to be the decision that spending the day normally is not in the way of the Count Baileys family.

It's the Demon Stone we're after today.

"At first, you're the demon stone of goblinking."

"Mmm."

In the auction, the prior appraisal mostly reveals the name of the Warcraft who was the owner of the Demon Stone.

I just don't know exactly what my skills are. Naturally. It's information that doesn't make sense to normal people, and it'll be hard to know in the first place. Even my appraisal with celestial skills doesn't know the skills sealed in that demonic stone.

Maybe I have the skills to analyze it or something, but I've never heard of it. It seems convenient when you get it.

So, what we're after is a demon stone with a threat C or higher. Or it was the demonic stone of a human warcraft. I'm still clever when I'm people-shaped, and I'm likely to learn new skills by doing workouts, etc. Even now, warcraft close to the human form, such as goblins, oaks and demons, often possessed many skills.

The ideal is the Devil's Demon Stone, which will appear at the end of the morning section, but I wonder. There 'll be a lot of the ones you're after, and it should be a tough fight.

No, there's 20 million gold in hand, and if you just drop it, it's fine. I just don't want to give you dozens of times the market, and if you ignore the market too much, other participants and auction organizers might stare at you. Worst case scenario, even if that makes it too conspicuous to be eyed by the Marquis Ashtoner family, it may not be zero.

So I was going to give up if the price seemed to get too high.

"Shall we go then?"

"Mmm."

Fran, you're gonna listen to Codart today?

(I know)

Actually, we're not the only ones today.

To keep an eye out, I had a deputy in the Adventurer's Guild. If a kid like Fran bids on expensive demon stones, he'll definitely get noticed, and if he wins a bunch of bids, there 'll definitely be guys out there exploring his identity.

Concerned about it, when we talked to Eliante, he introduced some of the adventurers to the auction.

I'm a rank e adventurer named Codart, but what an appraisal skill I had and I was the holder of a background that I was originally an auctioneer. But I have yearned for adventurers for many years, and I am the owner of an interesting background of being equipped and adventurers with the funds I have saved.

Therefore, he was also a late blooming adventurer who was too young to say that he was 35 years old but still had just risen to rank E. He himself seems to enjoy doing this with the extermination of the Miscellaneous Fish Warcraft and chores in the King's City.

He also had an admiration for strong adventurers and was very polite to Fran. He seems to respect the young, aliased Fran from the bottom of his heart.

I guess Eliante added those parts and introduced me to Codart.

"So you don't mind winning the bid for what's on this list, do you?

"Please."

While sitting next to each other, the bid is to be made by Codart. The products to be bid in advance are determined by looking at the catalogue, and the ceiling is also set in consultation with Codart. I plan on getting Codart to win the bid within that ceiling.

If the maximum bid is likely to be exceeded and further bidding continues, Fran is supposed to sneak up on wind sorcery and instruct how much to exceed.

If there's anything else we want new, we can win our own bid. It's rather odd that you come to the auction venue and you don't bid on anything.

They have several corners where they will be listed the same day that they are not in the catalogue, or the mysterious Demon Stone that even appraisers couldn't appraise, so we're after it.

"May I have a special seat?

"Mmm."

I'm allowed to eat and drink over there. And with Codart, form a corner of the special seat. All you have to do is leave it to him.

In cases like this where it is normal, the agent should be remunerated on a percentage basis, like how much from the difference between the maximum amount and the winning bid, but Codart was taking it on for me at a pretty cheap price.

Instead, I've been suggesting that Fran go with the training just once. For that matter, we hired Codart on that condition because the reward was cheap and good.

I just trained with Codart early this morning. Honestly, that means I started an adventurer at the age of 30. Not very good. It's just so serious and gutsy, you can go up a little bit if you keep training.

Especially today, I was coaching and doing the feeling of using martial arts. I just showed Fran unleashing martial arts or letting him take it with the sword with that move, but Codart was pretty thrilled.

He was glad that an adventurer at a far height had seriously coached him. No matter how many times Fran rolled me over, I laughed happily.

"Okay, I'll take care of it later"

"Mmm."

1 hour later.

"You managed to win the Goblin King"

"Momogu"

"Next is the demon stone that appears at the beginning of the afternoon"

"Momogu"

Fran alternately flaunts the rice balls in his hands as he listens to Codart. I thought it was just not a good idea to serve food with a strong smell, so Fran is instructed to eat rice balls and sandwiches.

For this reason, the rice balls are homemade tuna mayonnaise made from crushed tuna and sweet and spicy stewed seaweed similar to kelp.

Nevertheless, you never thought the demon stone of goblinking would be that expensive.

In his explanation at the start of the bidding, Auctioneer said, "It is the demonic stone of the king of Goblin, who continued to play infinitely with life magic and tormented the adventurer! 'Cause I said," I really wanted it, and all of a sudden I was going to give Codart instructions that I could use it up to double the limit.

That winning bid is 2 million. It is more than four times the market price for Goblin King's Demon Stone.

Apparently, Demon Stone Mania had been competing.

There are collectors in any world, and there are maniacs in the world of demonic stones that collect them. What they seek is a rare demonic stone. Or they say the shape is a beautiful demon stone.

Demonic stones have no objects of the same form, and are mostly distorted forms. Very rarely, however, there are things in neat shape, like cut gems.

Demon stones cannot be polished. No, you can polish it, but if you hurt it, you lose a lot of magic. Then you will lose your value as a demon stone. Beautiful objects in shape are very rare in that relationship. Therefore, it is said that high ranking Warcraft demon stones and beautiful shapes tend to increase prices.

I don't think magic matters if I just decorate it as a collection, but the Demon Stone Collectors don't think so. They say it is only a powerful demonic stone, and yet beautiful objects are preferred. That's exactly what this Goblinking demon stone was.

They can't assume a winning bid based on rank alone because demonic stones like those that will be auctioned off are a delicacy range. That's what Codart had told me beforehand, but I found out again how difficult the auction was.

"Demon Stone of the Afternoon...... I don't know what happens."
