Ch. 71 - Black Wood
“The first auction item is Magic Scroll Fire element level one Fire Ball. Price opened from one hundred silver coins.” Miria started the auction.
“One hundred fifty silver.
“Two hundred..”
“Three hundred silver..”
The first floor immediately boomed with the shouts of the people offering the prices. Finally the Magic Scroll fell into the hands of a noble who bid five hundred silver coins.
The auction continued and other more valuable items also began to be auctioned off, but the people on the second and third floors still made no bids at all. Because for those who are on the second and third floors have quite a high position in the Silver Moon Kingdom and they are here for the goods to be auctioned in the middle and at the end of the auction which is the main item in this auction.
“Now is the fifteenth item, in fact we ourselves still do not know what this item is and what its usefulness is. However the appraisers sensed that there was a huge aura of destruction from this item, so we decided to auction it today.” Miria took out a lump of jet black wood as if it had just been struck by lightning, as the wood was ejected Ray could feel an aura of destruction from it that was similar to that of Little Black.
“What wood is this?”
“How can it give off such an aura?”
Everyone in the auction was shocked, as this wood should have certain uses that were definitely not trivial matters but instead were issued at the early stages of the auction. But considering that no one knows how to use this wood, it is not unusual for this wood to be removed at the beginning.
As everyone was stunned by the black wood Miria had put out, Little Black woke up from his sleep and turned into a small black snake. Little Black used her tail to point towards the auction stage and then pointed her mouth. Seeing Little Black Ray's behavior, Little Black wanted the wood Miria was holding to eat.
“What wood is useful for your growth?” Ray asked telepathically. Little Black nodded his head indicating the wood was useful to him.
“Seven hundred silver..”
“Eight hundred silver..”
“Eight hundred fifty..”
“One thousand two hundred silver coins.” Ray bid from his room in a calm voice. But the offer made itself the center of attention of the entire auction, because not usually people on the third floor bid for items auctioned at the initial stage.
“Did no one bid anymore? Then this wood belongs to the master who is in the VIP room number ten.” Miria herself was also surprised, but what surprised her was the identifying writing in front of Ray's private room that could sometimes be read and sometimes blurry. This was also the reason he had mentioned the room number instead of the name written on the identifier.
“Ah, Miss Miria. Can you have someone bring that wood right away, of course I'll pay for it straight away.” Ray made a sound from his room.
“Of course sir.” Miria asks a servant to take the blackwood to Ray's VIP room.
The waiter Miria requested brought the blackwood to Ray's VIP room. The moment the maid entered she was completely shocked as Little Black instantly darted and swallowed the black wood she had brought without warning. The servant could only look at Ray as if asking what had happened to his resigned face.
“Ah, sorry to surprise you. You don't have to worry, I did buy that wood for my contract beast.” Ray calmed the waiter down, and he didn't expect Little Black to do that either. “It's twelve gold coins, you can go back now.” Ray handed twelve gold coins whose one coin was the equivalent of a hundred silver coins to the servant.
“Thank you sir, I retreat first.” The waiter left the room.
