in the forth phase faes only watched with interest but in the end she didn't buy anything as they didn't pique her interest. the technological inventions were all similar to those on earth or not? there were latest models of cars, bikes, tabs, etc while they were similar to those on earth these ones worked on magic and had slightly high quality features. but thanks to her family she already had the best of these equipments.
while about vehicles she neither had a licence nor knew how to drive them hence she didn't bother about those.
"and now ladies and gentleman begins our special phase."
"the first item we have prepared is meat of crystal rock bison"
"as everyone knows rock bisons are hard to hunt because of their tough crystal and rock skin but the meat inside those tough layers is soft and highly nutritious!"
"if someone eats the meat they will experience their healing rate increasing and eating this meat also have a chance to provide the eater with strengthened skin!"
"the bidding starts with two thousand points with each increment no less than a hundred"
"ten thousand points" a sweet melodic and soft voice spoke stunning everyone in the place. they all turned to the VIP room the voice came from shocked.
the voice belonged to sky who was staring at the meat licking her lips making faes smile wryly. if sky haven't bid before her then she was going to do the same, after all they were foodies!
"ten thousand going once, going twice, sold!" the host announced
sky smiled in satisfaction before turning to her "can we have that meat for dinner tonight?"
faes nodded as she too would have done the same.
"you like eating meat?" ali asked curious as he too was shocked by the prize the girls offered.
"we eat anything and everything until its not disgusting" faes replied before grinning
"we almost spend around fifty thousand points on groceries per month"
when ali heard what faes said he was shocked. glancing at the two he couldn't understand where all the food went as the two girls were still slightly skinny. he had had some food with them prior to the auction and had seen their diet. but he had assumed that they were hungry hence ate lots of food, now looking at it the girls could eat that diet or even more and still stay healthy.
"our digestive system is good, hence we get hungry in little amount of time along with our energy needs for the tasks we do daily" sky explained
"and if i may ask, what task would you be doing?" ali asked curious but sky only shruged
"just normal tasks- training, practicing skills, sparring with ethan and others, refining pills and potions, cultivating, doing paperwork, signing reports, collecting herbs and other things, studying, practicing manners and etiquette, learning and memorizing the political hierarchy of kingdom altai and reptiliance, practicing other skills, foraging weapons and equipment, and many more"
when ali heard sky he paled. he was the crown prince but even he couldn't do all those work in just a day. although he had to cultivate, train, do paperwork and some other tasks the list sky just spoke of was just too big.
faes noticed the look clearly speaking unbelievable on ali's face and hid her grin before offering something slightly more acceptable excuse
"our aide's help us most of the time"
only then did ali relaxed. but he was still amazed by the two girls then suddenly he happened to think of something as he frowned again
"you are princesses of kingdom reptiliance and only need to study the hierarchy of kingdom reptiliance and know about the royal families of other kingdom. why do you have to study the hierarchy of kingdom altai?"
faes sighed at the question internally.
"because we somehow managed to become direct disciples of commander shiva?"
even faes wasn't sure if she should speak about her secret but she somehow trusted ali more than she liked.
ali still had lots of questions but before he could ask them sky suddenly shouted another bid of ten thousand. this time the item was crystal cow's milk!
knowing that they should focus more on the auction ali controlled himself from asking the questions deciding to get their answers one by one in the future.
special items were sold one by one. rare scrolls, grimories, skill books, spell books, rare ores, elemental crystals and many more. faes and sky only bought few things while ali too bought few things that he liked.
"our next item is yin frost deer heart"
a whitish crystal with a blue core was then presented on the stage, it even gathered yin qi along with ice type mana around itself creating mist covering it.
"yin frost deer is one of the tier 6 beasts and rare to find. their core is also known as yin frost deer heart is a special crystal that can gather both yin type qi and ice type magic particles."
"it can be used to refine yin frost pills, high grade ice resistant potions, yin meridian strengthening pills and many more"
"the most special aspect about this crystal is that it can be refined into two crystals- one yin qi crystal and one ice elemental crystal. if one manage to gather both yin and yang qi crystals then its said that they can learn a special cultivation method known as yin yang soul and body tranquil strengthening cultivation method."
"but no one had managed to gather both crystals and hence it remains as a myth, ofcourse if you manage to gather them you might be able to cultivate till a diety realm cultivation stage"
the host was clearly bluffing! faes knew that no one can actually learn a cultivation method just by gathering two stones even if they are qi crystals. but there were many who thought otherwise! even knowing about the bluff faes was still interested in the yin frost deer heart because of its rare alchemy.
"the bidding will begin at the prize of fifty thousand points with each increment no less than a thousand points"
"fifty one thousand"
"fifty five thousand"
"fifty eight thousand"
"sixty thousand"
"seventy thousand"
in a heartbeat the prize rose to ninety thousand leaving common folks to smile wryly and astonishingly. the vip's had been taking it lightly all this time on them.
"hundred thousand"
someone increased the bid to hundred thousand as silence settled in the area.
faes knew no one else was going to bid anymore hence she began bidding now after the others had calmed down.
"hundred and one thousand" faes bid shocking the other party in the VIP room who was bidding along with other audiences.
the other party was actually leo who had arrived specially for this item. he wanted to gift it to faes as a thanks for her help in improving his companies condition and also to ask for help with a matter. but neither leo or faes knew that they were bidding for the same thing competing each other.
