Chapter 306 Auction Items

“Don’t worry Master Bennett; we won’t let you die in front of us!” Said the female elves confidently.

After hearing these words, Abel felt his face get hot. However, if he really went out with these Ladies, he would not have face to let them protect him. Abel said his fighting ability was so so, but self-defense should be ok.

At the same time, he could see that Lawland Squad had a strong belief in ‘Beauty Potions.’ This meant that they also had a strong belief in his alchemy skill. Beauty Potion is a special potion. Beauty Grass was a special ingredient. The rest of the ingredients were just low rank, but because Beauty Grass was so hard to obtain, it was very hard to practice. Therefore, it was very hard for Alchemists to succeed in making the potion in the first try.

Suddenly, all the illumination circles in the hall shut off, leaving only one beam of light directly casting down on a table with a black-suited young elf. He looked extremely alive.

“Ladies and gentlemen. I believe most of you know who I am; if you don’t, I’m sure you will after this!”

By this point, Derek was already by Abel’s side again. He explained, “Lord Bennett, this is Lord Jude; his family has 2 giant auction shops that are very well known among the nobles in Angstrom City and Begro City.

Under a wave of casual laughter, Jude had lifted up the atmosphere in the hall. He then followed, “it’s my honor today to host Prince Adolf’s little auction today!”

He then bowed to Prince Adolf and proceeded to say, “Thank you to Prince Adolf and Lady Carrie for each providing 3 pieces for auction today. Now, feast your eyes on the pieces Prince Adolf had provided.”

Afterward, an elf guard placed a long sword on the table. It was a delicate magic sword, with a typical elven style.

Lord Jude gently placed his hand on the sword and began to explain, “This is a brand new work of Blacksmith Master Leon. The dimensions and weight of this delicate ice magic sword were designed specifically to suit the movement of elves. Also, it can unleash ice damage and slow down during an attack!”

“With the dwarf’s Master Leon’s current ability, this new work of his must be the best of the beast within magic weapons!”

“That’s right, there aren’t many works of Master Leon out there anyway, and this one is designed specifically for elves. That’s such a rarity!”

Under the passionate discussion among the elves, Abel heard that this sword was made by a dwarf, and it was a Blacksmith Master just like himself. By this point, he also felt the urge to buy this magic sword to see if there was any difference between their forging level.

“Someone said, “Oh, so it wasn’t the work of Master Abel. If he had made something like this, then it really would be a treasure.” A noble elf signed

Abel was a little puzzled. Although he knew his magic weapons were decent, it was definitely hard to compare it to the extremely experienced Master Leon. Why would this noble elf say something like this?

“Yeah, Master Abel’s magic weapon is truly the dream of every warrior!” Another noble elf added.

“The works from Master Abel are rarely sold to the public, and there’s a rumor saying that the human wizards are coming after him. I’m afraid we might not see much work from him anymore!” Another noble elf sighed.

Abel got more and more puzzled as he listened. Finally, he couldn’t help but turned to Derek, “Derek, what so special about this Master Abel’s magic weapons?”

Only Grand Duke Edwina, Duke Albert, Lorraine, and her sister knew about Abel’s human identity. Derek did not know, so he just answered what he knew “Lord Bennett. Since Master Abel was one of the very few non dwarf Blacksmith Masters, no one really cared about his magic weapons at first. However, as time went on, his weapons shown scary effects, again and again; that’s why his weapons are considered the most powerful magic weapon.

“Powerful effects?” Don’t all magic weapons have the same effect?” Abel was still puzzled.

“Lord Bennett, somehow Master Abel’s weapon can push the effects of the magic weapons to the limit stably with every single strike. Normally magic weapons can only have a stable effect with the first one or two strikes before wearing out.” Derek explained patiently.

Abel began to recall his forging process. Every one of his mana gems and some of his rune ink was combined through the Horadric Cube. Maybe this stability was because the things combined through the Horadric cube were purer.

The auction began. All the elves bidding were very generous with their gold coins. It seemed there was a high demand for this magic weapon designed specifically for elves, as the price shot up.

“Prince Adolf went too far this time!” Derek said lightly in anger. It seemed like he suddenly thought of something.

Upon hearing Derek’s word, Abel quickly stopped bidding and asked: “why?”

“Lord Bennett. When I was sending our 3 auction pieces on the stage, I noticed we also have a sword by Master Leon. However, it was his early work” Derek was disgusted by the fact that Prince Adolf was targeting them directly, but he couldn’t do anything about it. The piece was being auctioned already.

As Derek was getting angry, Lady Carrie had already arrived in front of Abel with her hand out.

“Lady Carrie, what are you looking for?” Abel confusingly looked at Lady Carrie, he was not too sure what she was doing.

“Bennett. Give me a weapon quickly. You know what weapon I’m talking about!” Said Lady Carrie with her eyes fixed at Abel.

By this point, Abel realized that she wanted one of his magic weapons to get her face back. She was a member of the Grand Ducal Palace, so she also represented the face of Angstrom City.

But what weapon wouldn’t expose his identity, as there wasn’t much work of Master Abel out in the public? After spending half a day sifting around his Kong Kong spirit portal bag, he found an Ice magic sword he was going to send to an auction stand in Harvest City long ago. Since he had left Harvest City, this sword had always been left alone in here.

Abel used his will to move this what he thought of as out of date Ice magic sword from his Kong Kong spirit portal bag to his portal bag and took it out for Lady Carrie.

By that point, that work of Master Leon had reached 80,000 gold coins, and finally, it was put away by a young viscount.

Lord Jude then clapped his hands twice, drawing the attention back to the auction stand, “The next piece is sent by Lady Carrie.”

When the elf guard placed the sword on the long table, Lord Jude picked up the sword and gave it a little look. He looked a bit stunned, but as the host of the auction, his job was to introduce the piece.

“Lord Jude, the guard took the wrong sword. It’s actually this one!” Said Lady Carrie stepping up to the auction stand.

Lord Jude quickly exchanged the sword in his hand with the one Lady Carrie was holding.

Prince Adolf’s face immediately changed downstage. That moment when he was about to say something, he realized Lady Carrie was looking at him with a pair of cold eyes. She had a control card in her hand. It seemed like if Prince Adolf was going to make any move, she would ignite the control card and hold him down on the spot. The Prince was not willing to bet if Lady Carrie would do that. As far as he knew, she was not someone to mess around with.
