Chapter 101: Making a scene
" these hard to find light crystals will be selling in a package of ten! The bidding will start at four hundred gold! Let the bidding begin"
Only four hundred gold? This seemed low for ten light crystals. Walker wasn't sure why the price was so low but didn't think too much on it. The strange part was no one immediately bid either, this again put walker off. Onyx nudged him reminding him of his desire so walker was forced to bid.
"N-number six four hundred gold"
The woman stuttered slightly glancing at someone in the middle row. Walker could see those dressed in the churches garb.
The man dressed in the higher quality robes raised his hand immediately.
"Yes number eleven four twenty five."
Walker didn't hesitate either, onyx wanted these crystals and walker had the ability to provide them.
"Number six four seventy five"
Huh? The woman numbed the bid fifty gold? Some other guests were glancing at the party almost in pity. Was it not normal to bid against the church?
"Number eleven five hundred gold."
Ah now it was clear, they were favoring the church. The church must have a hand in the auction when it came to healing related items.
"Number six five fifty"
Again with the jump but walker didn't hesitate, he knew that those in the church were required by their faith to live a frugal life. Spending too much would taint their positive public image. This must also be why the price was lowered so the garnet auction house could make a good impression to the church.
"Once....twice...three times it's sold to number six for six hundred and fifty gold. Good luck!"
The pauses in the countdown were longer this time than any other. On top of that instead of congratulations the wording was good luck? We're they going to be in trouble for bidding against the church? Even Markus raven was giving them a look of pity? This in itself made walkers skin crawl. But there was no going back, they could only move forward.
A few waning glances at the party soon were focused back on stage.
"Our final item today is this luminescent ring! This ring assists in the gathering of light. Any light mage or faith healer would surely love this item. The bidding will start at two hundred and fifty gold! Let the bidding begin!"
This was another item that sounded too low priced to be true, another bid for the churches favor? Walker was thinking the item strange, just how did it gather light to assist in light magic and healing? We're the two not slightly different? Light magic made sense you basically would get more light but healing the light would have to be turned in to the skill so having too much could hurt the user. Walker used his skill to see if he could learn anything more,
'Cursed ring of luminesces
This ring has the ability to channel light and also convert it in to mana. This ring has been cursed by its creator to consume the soul of the user.
The user relied on a light attribute healer to save his dying daughter. Sadly the healer never showed up so the creator made this ring for revenge by burning his own soul.'
Walker knew the dangers of a cursed items, many traveling merchants had shared horror stories of transporting them only to be met with misfortune. Stories were written warning people not to trust something too perfect when gifted by a stranger.
"Leader what's wrong? You look worried" Su was the first to notice walkers hesitation. "Does the item look worth buying? We trust you to pick it if you think it will be of use."
To the rest of the party better healing sounded like a nice perk. Not to mention walker can learn any skill so light magic was also not a bad thing to enhance.
"What? No way I don't want a cursed item!" Walker had said this just a little too loud and a few guests heard him.
The man in the nicer church attire stood tall, "how dare you slander an item sold by the church. We priced it low so that the great people may benefit from its potential healing abilities!"
The man wasn't quiet old but had well worn wrinkles in his forehead that had been accented by his anger. Walker had not expected this confrontation.
"My name is walker a silver tier adventure and weirder of the hero title. I have an appraisal ability and could see the true nature of that item. Now you have all seen me buy multiple items tonight and I trust the garnet family values. However I will bet my title that the ring currently up for auction is cursed. It will consume the soul of the user every time the wield it. If the garnet family could please ask the appraiser to take a close look to clear this up I'm sure the truth will be shown!" Walkers speech was thanks to critical thinking and his true feelings. As a person how could he let something harmful escape his watch.
Gil rose from his seat to stand next to walker followed by su and Remey "we members of the omnipotent party are willing to also put our hero titles on the line! We trust the skill and knowledge of our leader and refuse to allow something dangerous to harm anyone else!" This was why walker had grown to love his party. They were family who could back him up and truly believe in him to the depths of their heart. Even onyx had coiled up on walkers shoulder releasing a soft his.
The man from the church looked to be flying in to rage when the woman in stage spoke "this family auction house does not permit physical disputes! This matter will be decided by the elder present tonight! Be silent!" Her words were demanding and final, anyone else about to speak up was quelled. "Elder Avis garnet is an appraiser and most trusted. You have all seen his high abilities and to deny his word would be to deny the garnet family itself. Please elder I leave the stage to you."
