Chapter 237 Shadow Jade Pendant

As the price of the Lightning Golem Cloak reached over 50 Riftstones, most people began to lower their magical plates, which showed their bidding numbers. They were interested in the item but not the 50 Riftstones type of interest. In the end, only two bidders were left: Geld and Linus Creyuun.

"The bidding rises again! A 55 Riftstone proposal by Geld, any takers from the Yuun kingdom side!?" The auctioneer began speaking rapidly.

"Oh! And there is!" He said as Linus lifted his magical plate and said "60," to which the auctioneer quickly turned his neck towards Lyrian's side of the room, "60 Riftstones for Linus! Any takers over here!? Geld, what are we saying?"

Geld smirked upon hearing this. "So... another person who recognizes the worth of the Lightning Golem Cloak, huh? Interesting." He raised his plate, "70!" he exclaimed loudly.

"Oooow! A brave 70 Riftstones put up by Geld, is Linus going to reply back!?" As the auctioneer spoke, the crowd followed his head, which darted left and right from Geld to Linus. His captivating voice was enough to excite almost anyone.

"75!"

"Yes, we do!"

"90!"

"Oh, my golly goshness! Geld is a madman! Raising 15 on the spot just like that! Has Linus got what it takes t--"

"100 Riftstones!" Linus suddenly exclaimed. This time, the crowd turned their heads to Geld without even hearing his words. They were used to turning their heads at this point.

Geld was slightly silent for a moment.

"Oh? Are we seeing the mighty Geld of the Fortune Sector begin to falter!?"

Geld awkwardly chuckled. "Ah~ I didn't want to go more than that on this..." He paused, getting a resounding "Ohh..." of disappointment from the crowd.

"If that's the case, then, ladies and gentlemen, we have a winn--" The auctioneer was just about to announce, as Geld suddenly cut him off.

"But I'm not going down without a fight!" He raised his plate in the air, "150 Riftstones!"

The crowd cheered in astonishment and amusement as they heard this, all turning their heads once again toward Linus, who seemed to have a slightly enraged glint in his eyes.

"Geld has done it again! Now, can Linus outbid him, or will he give up here!?"

"Tsk!" Linus slightly exclaimed, putting down his bidding plate for good.

As soon as he did this, a loud applause sounded for Geld after the exciting battle.

"Ssssold To Geld Worth for 150 Riftstones!" The auctioneer paused as all of the items on stage were quickly taken away. "Ladies and gentlemen, here are the products we all have truly been waiting for... the third-tier items and up! From now on, there will only be ten more items on display. They will vary from tier 3 to tier 6 in value at random!"

The crowd erupted in cheer.

"These items will not be listed, and their worth can vary on the slight preferences of the individual, so bid well. On top of that, we even have a mysterious item that entered the lineup unexpectedly, so look out for that! In truth, even we do not know its full capabilities."

As soon as the auctioneer finished his speech, he stood behind a podium in front of which the product of the moment was displayed.

"First up, Syans Mana Necklace! A magical item that provides 100 extra mana! The bidding price starts at 100 Riftstones!"

The golden necklace with a blue gem embedded in the middle was gazed upon by everyone at the banquet. The name quickly caught Lyrian's attention.

His eyes sparked up as soon as he heard about the 100 extra mana. 'That is tempting... but It's definitely not worth my free choice. Although I could just buy it, I don't know whether to save or spend my Riftstones yet. If only I knew how to get more sufficiently, I wouldn't care so much about spending them...' He mused to himself, deciding not to bid on the item.

After a series of bids, the item was sold, and another quickly popped up.

"The second item is the Ogre Helm! When put on, this mystical item will provide you an honor of respect within a tribe of Ogres! Along with that, it will almost make you admirable within Goblin groups, Orc groups, and Hobgoblin groups! 150 is the starting bid for this item!"

The Ogre Helm, a normal-looking large helmet with two ivory horns on the side of it, was more popular than the necklace before it. It quickly sold out, but Lyrian found no use for it.

"The third item! A Ring of Kaltus' Elements! This mystical ring allows one to gain greater control over all the elements, and if you are only a one elemental affinity bloke, then that one elemental affinity will be boosted in place of the other four!"

'Nah... I don't see how that would be worth more than 100 Riftstones...'

"The fourth item! Ursula's Tiara!"

'Eh... I could go with better.'

"King Soloman's Mantle of Divinity!"

'Seems useless in battle...'

"The Spear of Alexander!"

'My blade is probably stronger...'

Lyrian rejected all the offers that came his way. Everyone was expecting him to jump in at any moment and take an item right from under their hands, but he hadn't done so up until this point.

In fact, the boy had been completely silent.

"This next item, the 7th one of the lineup, is the mysterious item spoken of at the intro of the original ten." The auctioneer said, placing a dark purple necklace on the display pedestal in front of him. The necklace seemed to ooze a black essence.

"Originally, in its place, we had an entirely different item, but by special request, it is now here, in front of all of you today. The Shadow Jade Locket. It is a powerful item which supposedly grants the user control over another's body simply by touching their shadow with the other person's..."

As the crowd sounded their astonishment, Lyrian's attention was also intrigued, as he perked up and opened his ears.

"This wouldn't be as easy as it seems. To activate its power, one would not only need to be in a place where shadows were possible but also align their bodies perfectly in the light so it touched the opponent's shadow. Keep in mind, that the opponent can dodge your shadow at any time... This item starts at the price of 500 Riftstones..."
