Chapter 800: Best Price

An auction is a place where one could choose to sell the rare and extraordinary items in their possession. In fact, if the item one wanted to sell was considered valuable and quite rare by the masses, the selling price would be much higher than if it were sold in an official shop or the black market.

However, these exact words once again caused Emery to be confused. He couldn't wrap his head around Silva's idea that his tier 2 [Gaia Serum] would be considered as a rare one.

When they walked away from the black market, Silva finally gave him an explanation.

In reality, the spirit stones carried certain risks and could endanger one's cultivation if simply eaten orally. This was also the reason as to why spirit serum was created in the first place.

However, even the most effective spirit serum was proven to be effective only for rank 4 to rank 6 and would endanger the life of low-rank acolytes.

This was why a serum for low rank acolytes like the green potion would be worth quite a value despite being lower tier. The potion, after all, would become a significant help on the first step that would turn a mere mortal into a cultivator.

When he heard her explanation, Emery remembered Arthur who was a peak of his prowess with decent talent, and how much the [Gaia Serum] helped him to improve even further. The same thing also essentially happened to the Fey sisters.

"Emery, you must also know that 1,000 spirit stones are basically nothing when it comes to safely and successfully become a cultivator. That's why nations and the military would do their best to secure a large supply of such items"

The two of them continued their journey, with Silva leading the way. She brought him to the center area, where a towering building could be seen. The building was actually connected to the ceiling of the lower part, and had access to the middle part of the city.

Silva quickly beckoned Emery to enter "This is where the auction will be held. Let's hope that your serum can be accepted for the auction."

The moment they entered the building, the two of them were immediately welcomed by an android. It looked really similar to Xiana 13 they had met earlier, and introduced herself as Hasta 12.

"Welcome, esteemed guests, to Alfa Auction Center."

Since they didn't know when the auction would start, Silva immediately went straight to the point and let the female android attendant check the 250 vials of [Gaia Serum] Emery had in him.

Anxiety unknowingly appeared as they waited for Hasta 12 to finish evaluating. Fortunately, the serum was accepted and deemed adequate to be put in the auction. The android told the two that the serum would be auctioned in a batch of 50, with a starting price of 25,000 spirit stones per batch.

This meant that a single vial of [Gaia Serum] was valued at at least 500 spirit stones by the auction authority. Even though the price was a bit lower than the second offer that the black market's female shopkeeper gave, Silva's decision to sell the serum at auction was actually a right decision due to one particular reason - the signature of an auction.

"This is good, Emery." Silva said with a smile. "Usually, the things that were auctioned can go twice their starting price."

Thinking that he still needed more spirit stones, Emery checked his spatial storage and ring, to see if he had any other things worthy to be auctioned. With that in mind, he swiftly rummaged through his collections and found a potential item to be sold off.

A black, hexagonal plate appeared in Emery's hand before he gave it to Hasta 12 for evaluation. That's right, the thing Emery had just pulled out was Killgragah's scale.

Emery knew that the scales were extremely durable and even had flame retardant properties. In fact, his first thought when he received the scales was to ask a blacksmith and make armor out of it. Unfortunately, he still hasn't had the chance to do so so far.

After a few seconds, the android finally said something.

"I'm really sorry, esteemed guest. But this is not adequate for the request you asked for."

Even though dragon scales were precious, it was not considered to be that rare as they could easily regrow. Still, Silva told Emery that it might be able to reach about ten to twenty thousand spirit stones each if they sold it on black market.

Then suddenly, Emery thought of something and quickly asked Hasta 12.

"What about a rank 8 gene booster?" Emery said as he took out one of a silver liquid [Twilight fey booster] and handed it over to the android. "Will this be adequate for auction?"

This time, the evaluation took a little bit longer than the previous two. Fortunately, the answer she gave was an affirmation.

"Yes, it is adequate. We've never seen such a sample before. However, we can only put a starting price of 20,000 spirit stones for the same reason."

Emery turned to look at Silva, and the latter looked a little unsure about the idea. After all, Emery would need each drop of the booster, but considering he still has 10 of them and how important the Day Wolf is for making more of it, the two finally agreed to put one serum on auction.

The two were then told that the weekly auction would only be held two days later. This information quickly caught the attention of the magus bodyguards, who had only been watching the surroundings.

"Miss Silva, I must remind you that the Duke only gave us 48 hours to return back to Ouroboros."

In response, Silva just waved her hand nonchalantly. "Don't worry, I will take full responsibility for the consequences later. Also, I hope you four will give us two some distance. After all, you have seen that we are safe here in Alfa."

Hearing such words, even though reluctant, the four magus bodyguards knew they couldn't refute Silva's words. In the end, they left the auction and give the two more space.

The white-haired girl's fierce expression, however, quickly changed when she looked at Emery.

"You don't mind if we stay here for two more days, don't you, Emery?"

With everything he had seen so far, Emery was really interested in further exploring the marketplace and even the library. Of course, he doesn't mind.

Excitement appeared on Silva's face, but she quickly tried to hide it by casually saying, "All right. Now, where should we go next..?"
