Tyrant

Chapter 85

"My name is Ross Moriarty, I am the director of this branch of the Silverwing Auction and I must say this coin you found is a priceless treasure of the alliance history. I am almost certain that it dates back to the age of the Shattering. I am even inclined to buy it from you but the regulations of our auction house prohibits that I make an offer before an auction is conducted. I would like to start the auction at 10,000 gold coins and go from there. What do you think?"

Elune gave her more gorgeous smiled and said, "Great!!! here are the rest, there are 100 gold coins in this bag, I hope that you can delivered on the 10,000 per piece Mr. Ross"

"No need to worry Mrs. Elune I can guarantee that you won"t be disappointed. Would you like to come to the event, although there won"t be anything that come close to coins from the Shattering there might be something that could interest you"

"We would love to!!! I am wondering if we could get a line of credit from Mr. Ross to use at the auction using the coins as collateral"

"The Silverwing Auction House can definitely a.s.sist you with this as the coins will be the star of the night. How does a 1 million gold coins sound?"

Elune"s cheeks got a little flushed at the sound of 1 million gold coins but the other 3 didn"t even react which called the attention of the director.

"I Know that it may sound a little low but I can only provided you with the reserve amount, but I am positive we can get much more than that. If you allow me to advertise the item, I can a.s.sure you that we can get top dollar for you".

Rahz and the others remained oblivious to what was said and were probably thinking about dinner, the only excite ones were the Witch Doctor and his disciple.

"Mr. Ross can act as he sees fit, the only thing we ask is for you to keep our ident.i.ties a secret. If Silverwing Auction House can do that then we are in business".

"That goes without saying Mrs. Elune, I would reserve one of our VIP rooms for your group. Please keep this Card with you and you"ll be able to auction at any of our locations at a discounted price".

The group left the Auction House and went back to The Fair Lady where they had a sumptuous meal and listen to more speculations about the Blood Harvester.

The next day, the team woke up and went to the Alchemist shops to buy new equipment for Elune and to try and get a hold of the Herbs necessary to make the potion of ancient knowledge and the mini leveling candy.

Ding Dong

The door to the shop had a bell that announced the presence of costumers with a little rhythmic sound while the smell of the candle of clear mind smacked them in the face and made them relax.

The Witch Doctor nodded in approval and whispered, " This is more like it. They should have intermediate sets here I just hope you could afford it, if not we can always wait for the auction"


"Welcome, How can I be of a.s.sistance"

"I am looking for an intermediate or advanced alchemy set"

"Certainly, We have one advance set, It was brought over from BlackRock Port and is warrantied to provide the alchemist very little heat loss during the energy extraction stage and it is priced at 20,000 gold coins. For the Intermediate set we have a bigger selection and they range from 8,000 all the way to 15,000".

Elune looked through and with the help of her teacher, she was able to pick a pretty decent one for 9,000 gold and even if that price left them hurting a little bit, they would be rich 4 days later. With the last of the money they had, Elune was able to buy enough intermediate herbs to concoct 12 potions of Ancient knowledge.

The team had four days to spare before the auction house opened its doors and what a better way to spend them on than using potions to increase their proficiency on very powerful skills.

The team went back to their rooms at the Fair Lady and consumed the potions before starting their study of the techniques left behind by the guardians of the Fifth Gate. Rahz and Ridd.i.c.k picked Warriors Fury, Midori continue with the Shadow Weaving technique and Elune Triplication. After 4 days of intense meditation they all managed to reach a middle Level of understanding of the skill and could use it in battle, however, it was not to the level displayed by the guardians as the amplification of warriors Fury was of only 10% and Elune had managed to only duplicate. Either way the improvement was amazing as some people had to practice for years to achieve the same results.

On the day of the auction, Elune was extremely excited and said, "It is time guys!! The auction is about to begin, I hope the coins go for 30,000 a piece, how good would that be"

The team stepped out of the Fair Lady to find that there was a sea of people moving about in the streets and some had clothing never seen before. The coins that dated back to the age of the Shattering were really priceless, especially for the rich Dark Elves that couldn"t stand other races owning their heritage.

The excitement could be felt in the air as the team march towards the Auction House in high spirits.

The line at the door went for at least a mile but the worst part was that half the people present were not even able to come in, they were just there to observe the Auction via illusion Runes. Illusion Runes came in pairs, one would take an image and the twin one would displayed it upon activation.

The event was a complete success and everyone was happy with the results, the director"s father and one of the tyc.o.o.ns of Na.s.s was showered with praises thanks to his sons ability to help the situation and that trickle down to Ross in the form of his father"s affection and the never before seen statement " I am really proud of you son".

All that happened behind the scenes helped Rahz and the others, the manager that had brought the coins to the Director"s attention was outside with a sign that said Mrs. Elune and Friends and was the talk of the town. Even the Aristocrats of other cities didn"t get that kind of treatment.

Elune and the others were trying to move through the ocean of people while comments such as "Look at those savages!!! Country b.u.mpkins!! Low cla.s.s beast!!" were raining left and right from people that couldn"t even get in.

The manager knew the importance of the group and as soon as he saw Midori"s head sticking out above the sea of people he smiled and call over some of the guards to open a way for them.

The guards had done the task hundreds of times and knew the procedure, they made 2 rows and as they move forward they hit the bottom of their polearms to the ground to call the attention of the people at the front while they advanced and moved the people to the side before dividing into 2 lines and making a road for Elune and the others.

The whole process brought over silence to the audience as the manager quickly approach Rahz"s team with a big smile "Mrs. Elune Welcome!! Everything is set for your group, if you need anything at all please let me know"

Cool!!!

"We want really cold Fruit Juice and lots of roasted meat".

HA HA HA!!

The crowds burst in laughter and the manager was a little embarra.s.sed but when he saw Elune also nodding he called another employee to fulfill their request, compare with the fetishes of other aristocrats this was a piece of cake. The manager also understood that if they were dissatisfied in any way it would be his head.

Elune and the others followed the manager to VIP room number 5 under the gazes of many important people especially the ones that couldn"t get the room no matter how much money they tried to throw at it.

"If you want to make a bid all you have to do is pour some energy into this artifact and say the amount, the auctioneer have been inform of your line of credit so there won"t be any issues please rest a.s.sure. The food and drinks should be up shortly so please enjoyed yourselves"

The team walked into the room and made themselves at home before looking at the ma.s.sive hall where the auction was about to take place and they couldn"t help but laugh while playing with the different runes like little kids with a new toy.
