Chapter 2929: Do You?
One day, a piece of news reached Rean. He quickly left his room and met with Suzumaki in the same restaurant as before. "Did you truly find more of it?"
Suzumaki nodded with a faint smile. "I did. Enchanted Moon Gel... there will be some available in the auction that will take place in the royal capital two months from now."
"An auction, uh?" It had been a long time since Rean participated in one. "It might be even more complicated instead, considering how important everyone takes this gel to be. Above all, it would be bad to attract attention to me if I happen to have the funds."
"That's the point," Suzumaki lifted one finger. "The auction won't be solely about Spiritual Stones. Half of the items that will appear on the auction are owned by the auction house, while the other half have different owners. That said, the auction will be divided into two different segments."
Suzumaki continued. "The first day is all about the Auction's own items. During this day, only Spiritual Stones will be accepted. However, the second day will be different. The owners of each item auctioned will be present, and you will be able to offer something else for trade in case you don't have the necessary Spiritual Stones."
Rean understood. "You saying the Enchanted Moon Gel is one of such items with different owners, right?"
"Exactly," Suzumaki nodded. "Here is a list of the auction from the second day. Each item there has its price in Spiritual Stone or the items their owners are looking for."
Rean took the list from Suzumaki. "Err... Two Hundred Rank Five Spiritual Stones for 10 grams of Enchanted Moon gel." At the same time, Rean asked Roan. 'How much Enchanted Moon Gel do you need exactly?'
'It's just two pills, so 50 grams should be enough,' Roan answered promptly.
Rean narrowed his eyes. He would need a thousand Rank Five Spiritual Stones to buy the necessary amount of gel. Even after doing many trades with Suzumaki in the past months, Rean had just accumulated a little more than 300 Rank Four Spiritual Stones. Even if you trade 10 to 1, that would be nothing more than 30 Rank Five Spiritual Stones, nowhere near enough.
He then put the thought of paying with Spiritual Stones aside and checked the item the owner was looking for. "As for the other price... a cultivation technique that works for a Sun Urpin Spirit race member. What is a Sun Urpin to start with?"
Suzumaki checked his CD and passed the information to Rean. Sun Urpin Spirits were a type of winged spirits who lived in high places where a lot of sun light hit the ground. It wouldn't be wrong to call them a type of Yang Spirit as well.
However, Rean found it strange. Spirits usually had their own cultivation methods, and they were quite weird ones most of the time. That's because many of them usually didn't use the normal cultivation energies like humans and demon beasts do. Take Fluki, for example. He lived attached to Luan's soul, and his cultivation was based on virtues. Yes, he grew stronger by absorbing the power of virtue of its host. There were also the faeries, who cultivated through the power of karma.
This Sun Urpin Spirit was looking for a cultivation technique, just like humanoid races do. It did feel quite strange. "Do they use the same cultivation techniques as the ones we have here in the Gondel Clan?"
"Of course not!" Suzumaki instantly shook his head. "However, you have the backing of a high elder, don't you? They usually have access to more secret techniques. Perhaps your master has something that could be used by the Sun Urpin Race. It wouldn't hurt to ask him."
"I see..." Rean nodded, although he wouldn't do such a thing. Kuslau had no idea Rean did such trades with Suzumaki.
Fortunately, Rean had the god of cultivation techniques creation on his side. 'Roan, do you think you could create a cultivation technique for that guy?'
'Perhaps it will be better to simply attack this Sun Urpin and steal the gel from him,' Roan answered back. 'We don't really need to take the hardest path every single time.'
Rean narrowed his eyes. 'Considering how important this gel is, I don't think it will be unprotected at any point. Since it is the capital of the country, I also don't think we can deceive those in the Transition Realm. It is too risky...'
'Hmph!' Roan snorted. 'And do you think it will be okay if two kids suddenly appear with a cultivation technique of the Sun Urpin Race that seems to be as valuable as the gel?'
'Fair enough...' Rean didn't have an answer for that.
"Suzumaki, is there a way to offer the technique without anyone knowing it is me who is offering it?" Rean asked.
"Of course!" Suzumaki nodded. "There is no lack of people afraid of others knowing what they acquired. So, the auction house has plenty of private rooms for those who want to hide. That way, no one will know who got what after the auction is over. The auction house itself will have experts in place to guarantee no one will try to overstep the limits of these private rooms, including Transition Realm experts."
Suzumaki smiled. "This is the auction house of the royal capital. They have a reputation to protect. Although I am not 100% certain that nothing will happen, it is definitely very close to
100%."
Rean nodded, satisfied. 'So Suzumaki said. What do you think?'
Roan pondered a bit. 'I need to know more about this Sun Urpin Race. If possible, I would like to meet one.'
Rean quickly shifted his attention to Suzumaki. "You don't happen to know where I can find some common members of the Sun Urpin Race nearby, do you?"
