Loser's redo: Transmigration in a novel-Chapter 90 Enchanted Items Auction

The auction was split into the main hall, single rooms, and The VIP rooms. 𝒇𝑟e𝙚𝑤𝙚𝐛𝗻𝐨ν𝚎𝘭.c𝐨m

The single rooms were right below Zick's room, they could be brought using money unlike the VIP rooms, which can only be used by people with enough influence or recommended by one of them.

From what Zick could feel, there were only 12 VIP rooms, in this only eight were used and the other four were empty. The VIP rooms were almost fully empty leaving the table and the sofa, but the furniture was of high quality.

Right at the moment, Zick was still in his fake appearance, using magic. He randomly named this magic as [Shapeshift].

This magic was maintained using his mental power ceaselessly. It had only increased after taking off the blood red earrings. Even if he wore it, he would still face many problems. The earrings were an artifact level item, so he would have used a lot of mental energy to hide it too.

He could keep up this magic for two to three hours before he would start feeling headache. After five hours, he would have to stop using it or he might just harm himself.

After taking a look at the auction stage, Zick picked up the yellowish parchment in which the list of items were written. It was an enchanted item, this item was only given to the VIP rooms.

? "We will now begin the auction. First off, we will be starting with rare enchanted items, you can expect it to be worth your time, customers." A middle-aged man with a strong build appeared above the auction stage. A maid stood beside him.

Zick went through the page swiftly while hearing the auctioner's announcement.

The parchment first mentioned the rules of the auction in a few lines.

The bidded money must be paid immediately, no exceptions. If an item or ornament is used to buy an auctioned item, its value will be checked by the auction house.

And there are a few other rules and regulations mentioned in the page.

The things which would get auctioned first are the enchanted items. There were many items listed in the paper along with their portrait, capabilities and tiers.

'It's all garbage.' Zick felt disappointed at the item listed on it.

There was no item at the level of artifact, which could affect a master rank. The item in it ranged from middle to peak tier, but Zick wasn't interested in it at all. They wouldn't help him in any way.

There was only a single item which caught some of his interest. It was a glove which can be used while creating an enchanted item.

It was only a high tier item, so the benefits it brought would also be minimum.

According to the page, this item could make it easier to change the shape of the materials used while making an enchanted item, by making the mana flow into a lot more naturally.

"The first item is this wonderful rapier, this is a high tier item. Please start the bidding." The auction went on, but Zick wasn't interested in any of it, leaving the enchantment gloves. He had decided to buy it, an item like this was rare after all. But not many people would be interested in this item.

The slave section held many different kind of product, but Zick ignored them all. He would let his eyes judge them instead of this parchment.

The next items are named as special goods. There were only three items listed in it.

'A dark mage slave.....' An unexpected name appeared in the list.

Zick knew about dark mage, they were people with their mana fully converted Into impure mana. They are looked upon as an enemy by the whole world.

The dark mage could use their impure mana to infect the mana of the others and make theirs impure too. Anyone who has mana which was weaker than their impure mana would get tainted immediately. This would ruin their talent and future, as the impure mana in their mana nerves would make their chances of becoming a master swordsman abysmal.

And if a normal person comes in contact with impure mana they would die in an instant.

With all this, the dark mage was hunted by everyone, looked upon as an evil and corrupt being. After a big hunt which occurred centuries ago, they had almost become extinct.

They even appeared in the novel. According to them, they are constantly living in pain because of their impure mana. Aeiron had come across one of them in the second continent and helped him.

Zick was interested as to where this dark mage came from, but he didn't think about this matter for long. He wasn't interested in buying it.

There was another use for a dark mage, their blood which is affected by their impure mana can be used to make a special kind of elixir. This elixir can be used to prolong a person's life to a large degree. Without a doubt, people who are reaching the end of their life would come rushing to buy it.

The other two items in the special category were a red bow and a spear both of them were artifacts level but still Zick lost interest in it. He wasn't in need of either a bow or a spear right now.

There was nothing else worth mentioning in the page, the other things were artistic things, like paintings, ornamental types and rare monster parts.

Placing the page back on the table, Zick looked at the auction stage. He waited for the item he wanted to buy to appear.

"This enchanted item is capable of blocking a surprise attack by creating a mana barrier! this is a peak tier item, please start the bid." The auctioner showed a shield shaped badge, which was kept upon a luxurious cushion. It was held by the maid.

"800 platinum coins!"

"1000 platinum coins!"

"5000 platinum coins."

Suddenly, one of the people in the VIP room bid, making the whole auction house silent.

"Is there no one else who is going to bid? then, this item goes to the person in the fifth VIP room." An maid took the item towards the VIP room after that.

After a few more items, the item Zick was waiting for arrived.

'at last.' Zick had grown bored waiting for such a long time. He looked at the auction stage while still supporting his back upon the sofa. He gave off a feeling of Leisure, there was no sign of anxiety in him in any way.

"This is an item that could be very useful to an enchanter, this can help in the process of changing the shape of a material. It is also a high tier item, please start the bid." There was only a single glove in black colour and a red jewel was in the middle of it.

"500 platinum coins."

"Hmm, 550 platinum coins."

Unlike before, the auction was heated up at all. The enchantment profession was chosen by only a few people so this was normal. There were only a handful of people who were an enchantment master. There are not even ten of them in the first continent.

Ringing the bell, Zick took the rectangular shaped item and infused a little mana into it.

"1000 platinum coins." His voice clearly reverted through the auction house. No one else bid after him.

"Is there no one who would like to bid for this wonderful item? Then, this goes to the person in the seventh VIP room!"

The maid headed towards Zick's room, with the glove. Unlike in Earth, there was no count down before giving the item to the buyers in this world.

Taking the glove, Zick passed on the 1000 platinum through the space ring. He played around with the gloves by wearing it for a while, before putting it in the space ring.

Soon the auction for enchanted items came to an end and the slaves auction began.f𝑟e𝒆𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗oѵ𝐞𝗹.c૦𝑚
