"May we get an Appraiser down here to verify my extravagant claims?" Deia requested with a playful smile.
Darius' plan was for the Appraiser Guild to verify his goods to the public through this auction, even though many did not see the need to call them over each and every time.
However, by getting them involved no one would be able to claim that his goods were of a lower tier than the one they had advertised, as doing so would be slighting not just Darius and his entire territory but the entire guild as well.
As such, Fabio was sent down once more and he looked through the assortment of goods slowly and finally put them down with a smile.
He turned to the crowd and nodded, gazing at Deia with an unreadable look before returning to his VIP room.
Now that the final batch had also been confirmed, the air became heated as many couldn't wait for the auction to begin.
Deia then touched the Awakening Scrolls lightly. "The first item for the final round, our amazing Awakening Scrolls. They will be sold in batches of 10! Each one is priced at 100,000 Supreme Coins, and the minimum increment allowed is 1,000 Supreme Coins."
When the price was called out, the originally clamoring crowd was instantly silenced thoroughly. Even the powers at the top sucking in a deep breath, shocked at the ruthlessness of this city.
It seemed that they were indeed taking the approach they wanted, which was to make these items as expensive as possible to limit the type of people able to purchase them.
After all, each Awakening Scroll had the power to turn even the village idiot into a potential future Grandmaster mage. The last thing people in power wanted to see was the masses being given ways to climb the stages in a similar way to them.
Nevertheless, they didn't expect the initial price to be this high.
This was basically cutting the 10% who could afford it into a 1%, strangling these fellows by the throat and emptying their endless enthusiasm.
"Heh, don't worry. As promised, there will be another chance after the auction. 'Unfortunately' since it's not easy to produce them, the maximum that can be sold in any given month will be 10 scrolls… and even that should be rare. This is your one and only chance to secure a bulk of them, so waste it at your own discretion!" Deia added callously and arrogantly.
Her words were like a splash of water that woke up these fellows. Even if the price was high, they had come here precisely because they knew goods like this couldn't be mass-produced and if some were sold later, there would definitely be an issue of supply.
Not to mention the price would increase with the growing demand!
If they thought of it through this kind of logical string of reasoning, they realized that they would be investing in saving time.

The faster they could get their wards to use these things and power up, the faster they would rise to the pinnacle before those who would purchase it later!
Immediately, the powers had an epiphany that was grand, something they had failed to realize before.

With the introduction of items like this that could grant great power and talent to just anyone, this era would enter a race to the top. Those who were able to use these 'divine' items would become the next rulers of Faust with their power and the earlier one started, the greater their advantage!
With this enlightenment, the crowd calmed down and gazed at Deia, who nodded her head with satisfaction.
Finally, these native blockheads understood this simple train of logic. The AI had no idea how her husband hadn't conquered this entire planet yet, if these fellows had such shitty business sense compared to earthlings, but whatever.
"The bidding for the Awakening Scrolls starts now!" Deia declared.
Immediately, bids were furiously sent out as the various powers fought tooth and nail. They had long lost their reason and were only thinking about making a sacrifice now to recoup their investment later.
They would not be the ones lagging behind those who secured such good early! It was unacceptable!
The first bid ended at a whopping 541k Supreme Coins, making those who were unable to bid breathe deeply but also lament their poverty. They did not feel it was wasted money, but money well spent.
The next bids were even more intense. From 590k Supreme Coins, to 654k, to 699k to 732k, to 765k, to 818k, to 843k, to 966k, and finally 998k Supreme Coins!
With every batch sold, the crowd became wilder as desperation showed on their faces. One batch lost was another gap between their powers created!
At this point, many had exchanged so many things for Supreme Coins that the warehouse of the city was starting to struggle.
Deia had cleverly summoned all available Guard Androids to stand in various VIP rooms and beside various fellows so they could exchange for things rapidly without having to wait.
That was how money had been able to flow and these bids had kept getting higher. By the time the last batch was sold, many fellows roared in anguish, like they had just watched their child die before them.
Those who had won patted their chest and shrieked with glee. They were the grand winners this time, and by the time the new supply was out, their chosen wards would already be one step ahead.
Even if the others quickly swooped up what came next, there would always be a gap, because the Awakening Scroll would give the same level of talent to everyone.

If two Bugattis were to race, with both having the same specs, it was impossible to lose for the one with the headstart on a straight track.
Deia closed the bid and then gestured to the Spark Potions. "For those who lost out, do not fret! Even if your wards cannot become Mages, Cultivators, Omnyouji, or Runemasters, they could still become Warriors, Martial Artists, Samurai, or Infused Beasts with our Ability Potions!"
Deia smiled cruelly as she said this, enjoying every moment that she was manipulating these so-called powers of Faust no differently than she had manipulated Darius' enemies on Earth.
