Omega Summoner

Before the Auction started at a private room in the merchant guild….

"Well then young lad, you can bring out the item here now. I am pretty sure our location is far from prying eyes." Piggy Bank stated.

"Here are the first set of items." Adrian stated as he pulled out talismans from his inventory.

"Talismans? What do these do?" Piggy Bank said with uncertainty as this is the first time he has seen one.

"Talismans have numerous uses depending on what type of talismans they are. They can be used to attack or defend and many more as long as the scribe can make them." Adrian stated.

"Then should I believe that the young lad in front of me made these?" Piggy Bank asked as he knows that Adrian would not be able to have this many talismans unless the craftsman themselves make them.

The others also looked at the talismans in order to see their details. Three talismans stood out the most as they are the things that could make or break a fight. Even the calm and composed Anastacia had a shocked expression and now she is set in stone in recruiting Adrian.

"The Flame Bird Talismans can be tested but for these three epic talisman is a different story. I only have these three so far as they are extremely difficult to make." Adrian stated as he remembered another round of face explosions due to talisman making.

"I believe we can make that work as you only need to make a consumer believe once for the market to explode." Piggy Bank stated as Adrian conducted the demonstration with the announcer of the auction in the room.

The others could only exclaim in shock on how a talisman is used because there was no mana consumed. The damage is also passable for the talisman's low cooldown usage. Piggy Bank though could smell the money from Adrian's personage which made him one of the best merchant players.

Piggy Bank told Adrian that as long as he needed a merchant to sell things then the latter could contact him directly. The members of Evergreen could see what Piggy Bank is doing but does not stop him as even they have a friendly relationship with him. They might become the priority customers as long as they remain friendly with Piggy Bank.

"Is there anything else that you wish to sell?" Piggy Bank asked as courtesy but he honestly did not expect there to be more.

"I have one more but I think I want something different for this other than money." Adrian stated which peaked everyone's interest.

Adrian then pulled out the epic skill book called Abyss Dragon Breath (Degraded) Skill book. The others did not understand why an epic skill book is more important than the game changing talismans. Adrian then explained why this skill book is unique.

"This epic skill can be upgraded to become a legendary skill upon achieving mastery of it. But of course, it will not be easy." Adrian suddenly dropped a bomb to those in the room and they could no longer keep a straight face.

"A Legendary skill!" All of the onlookers thought as Adrian downplayed the importance of a legendary skill. Perhaps only a few individuals have legendary skills and Adrian himself is downplaying it.

"Unless! He has a legendary skill himself!" Anastacia thought as she is the first one to become calm.

"So how much do you think these items would sell?" Adrian asked while Piggy Bank is still in huge disbelief.

"These talismans are sold as a set courtesy of the maker. He generously set the starting price at 3000 gold for the whole set. The increment per bid will be 100 gold. You can now start the bidding." Mei announced and then the whole auction became embroiled in chaos.

[VIP Room 1: 3,000 gold]

[VIP Room 3: 4,100 gold]

[VIP Room 4: 4,200 gold]

[VIP Room 12: 5,000 gold]

…

The bidding price continued to soar and it actually long passed the value of the previous to items.

[VIP Room 1: 21,000 gold]

[VIP Room 3: 21,100 gold]

[VIP Room 2: 21,200 gold]

[VIP Room 7: 21,300 gold]

….

The price suddenly skyrocketed towards 25,000 gold before someone finally stopped the silence. The voice sounded authoritative and threatening.

"Anyone who bids bigger than our bid will forever be hunted by the Crimson Fangs!" an authoritative voice coming from VIP Room 1 echoed as he used the audio function in the room.

"Nobody is threatened by your guild. This auction must be fair and you must not use your influence to terrify others to not bid. We will have those items no matter what! 27,000 gold." A feminine voice from VIP Room 5 replied to the voice from VIP Room 1.

"Let your money do the talking. 28,000 gold." A voice from VIP Room 8 stated.

"Just you wait until I find you and let you taste hell!" The voice from VIP Room 1 shouted in fury.

A lot of murmurs suddenly started to erupt in the crowd as this verbal debate is definitely news worthy. Even the broadcasting companies that are currently airing the event suddenly made headlines like "Top Guilds uses force to scare other buyers" or "Using Power to crush competition".

Anyways, everyone started talking about what these type of talismans could do. The biggest search on the Pandemonium forums is "Who is the one who made these talismans?" and "What is the sub job class in order to make talismans?"

The fight for the talismans became so hot that a lot of people tuned in to watch it. Even an auction is as exciting as a real battle due to all the mudslinging that is happening. People really like watching fights because it gets their blood rushing.

The bidding finally stopped at 33,000 gold which is bid by VIP Room 5. It seems that whoever bid at that room really wanted the talismans as they must be attempting to raid a world boss or something. The people at VIP Room 1 were not happy by this development but their funds could not handle that extravagant price.

"Everyone please calm down! Unruly behavior will not be tolerated at the Merchant Guild." Mei announced and everyone finally started to calm down.

Being banned at purchasing at any store affiliated with the merchant guild is basically a virtual reality death wish. As everyone calmed down and the item is finalized to be sold to VIP Room 5. Mei began promoting the next item.

"For the next item, the seller is hoping for something in exchange but if the exchange could not be procured then we will proceed to bid it using money. This is the last item for this event so I hope you brought something for it to be exchanged." Mei announced as she gestured for the next item to be shown.

The crate is then carried by an entourage of men and is covered in a cloth that is bright purple. It is even carried on a golden podium in order to signify the importance. The others could not wait as suspense is finally building up.

Finally, the cloth is taken off and everyone can see the item being hidden. The reaction is different from what is expected. The expected reaction would be to be shock and awe but the crowd is actually dumbfounded.

The reason the crowd is dumbfounded is because the last item is actually just an epic skill book. They were even outraged. They waited all day and the last item is actually just an epic skill book.

"Yah! Are you joking! You made a big speech and it is actually just an epic skill book!" A random player spouted which made a chain reaction.

"You already sold some epic skill books earlier! Why sell this one now!?" another random person spouted.

"Settle down please. Settle down. You have yet to hear my explanation why this skill book is the main event." Mei stated while acting cute in order to settle down the crown and it did by quite a bit.

The crowd is still a bit unruly but little by little they are calming down. Mei could see this and decided not to speak while there were still people shouting. She is like an adult waiting for an unruly child to stop its tantrum. She finally spoke when a respectable level of silence is heard.

"Finally, I hope all of you have calmed down. Please stop acting like kids because only I can do that! Chu!" Mei stated while giving a flying kiss towards the crowd. She acted cute so that the crowd will not go back at her for insulting them that they were kids.

"Let me explain to you what this epic skill book is." Mei announced but someone cut her off.

"We can see it clearly that is only an epic skill book!" someone shouted.

"If you think this skill book is just an epic skill book then you are wrong. This epic skill inside this spell book can evolve into a legendary skill." Mei announced which made everyone in the venue speechless.
