Eternal Love 14 Swords In A Stone

The older lady introduced her self. He name was Kara. The younger girl was called Mia. Kara took the lead and welcomed everyone.

Kara: Today, the Jade palace has materials that will be useful in your cultivation. We sent some of our experts on exploration and from the information we got, they found the tower of the last demon Lord.

Hearing this information, everyone gasped as the demon lords tower was supposedly destroyed 10,000 years ago by the four legendary knights.

Kara continued after a short pause. We found seven items and all are up for auction.

Walking up to a table, Kara and Mia unveiled the first item. We found this locked under the demon lords throne. What was displayed was a brown stone. We have tried infusing it with mana but it didn't react to mana. Either way, its still a precious item from the demon lords tower. Starting price is five thousand gold.

Hearing the price, everyone laughed out loud. It was clear that the Jade palace where trying to get rid of this object. To them, it was a useless piece of trash. Suddenly a sound rang out, ten thousand gold. The announcer immediately yelled out "ten thousand gold, going once, twice, sold. Room 11 wins this round.

This was a total scam, and they had successfully sold a piece of junk. Well, a man's profit is another man's lose.

Kara took the stage again and announced, the second item is a set of scrolls for darkness element. Although, no human can learn in the dark element, studying this scroll, you can gain understanding about the demons way of attack. Starting price is fifty thousand gold. Still, the auction house was silent. Then from the same direction, the same room, that same sound resounded. A hundred thousand gold. Again, the announcer shouted going once, going twice, sold. Room 11 wins this round again.

The partic.i.p.ants where getting curious. Who was this fool? Trying to buy all he sees?

Kara announced again, the next item is a splendid work of craft. Kara picked a black bow from the table. One of the attendants came up the stage and gave her an arrow. She took the arrow and aimed at an already set target. She infused her mana into the bow. As she drew back the arrow, the infused mana gathered at the tip of the arrow. She shot at the target and boom!! The target was covered in flames.

The audience started mumbling, isn't this a normal elemental bow? There is nothing special about it.

They were still mumbling when Mia took the bow and repeated the same procedure. This time, instead of fire, the target was split.

How's that possible? A dual elemental bow? Then Kara took to the stage once again and said

Kara: this is unlike the normal elemental bow as it amplifies the mana infused in it. This bow, when tested, was able to accept all kinds of elements. It's not restricted to a certain element. And the amount of mana you infuse the strength your attack. Starting price is three million gold.

3,200,000!

3,300,000

3,500,000!!. Going once, going twi...

3,800,000!!

4,000,000!

Four million gold, going once, going twice

4,500,000

Four million five hundred gold going once, going twice, sold. Room 09 wins this round.

This time, Mia took the stage, the next item was a s.h.i.+eld. Mia infused a little of her mana into the s.h.i.+eld and it immediately formed a barrier around her. She said, the actions I just displayed tells the properties and abilities of this s.h.i.+eld. Starting price is 1,500,000 gold.

1,800,000!!

2,000,000!!

2,300,000!!

2,300,000!! Going once, going twice, sold. Room 02 wins this round.

**********************************************************************************************

The seven items found in the lost demon lords tower where all sold. Aside that, other items the Jade palace had obtained during their exploration had been sold. Leo went to Marquis Hendricks' office to pay and recieve his items. When he entered, he saw Kara and Mia beside Hendrick.

Mia thought, a kid? What's a kid doing here? All these were in her thoughts. Hendrick received Leo's money and thanked him. Leo finally gave this man face. He uncovered his face and smiled at Hendrick. I hope to do business with you in the future, he smiled.

Although, they knew he was a kid, both ladies were in awe. This boy is so handsome!!! Mia took this opportunity and said, "since you would be doing business with us, then I'll call you my little brother. What's you name little brother? She asked. Leo looked at the girl in his front, still smiling, he replied, Leo.

He stretched out his hand to receive something. Hendrick gave a medal to Kara to pa.s.s to him. When she saw the insignia on the medal, she froze for a sec and immediately pa.s.sed it to Leo. As Leo left the Auction House, Mia asked Kara, why did your expression change when you handed him his identification medal?

Kara replied, it's because he is the first son of Duke Edward.

Leaving the Jade Palace, Leo walked back to the inn. He ate and went to his room. He brought out the brown stone from his storage ring. The reason he had bought this stone was when it was displayed, he felt a dense mana similar to his, coming from it.

Leo tried breaking the stone but to no avail. Suddenly, a thought came to him, if whatever was in this stone could sense his element, he could forcefully help it break out of the stone.

Leo stimulated his fire element and sent it to the stone but there was no reaction. He tried with his lightning and still, no reaction. That's wierd. I could clearly sense somewhat like a connection between me and this stone. Then he tried his light and dark elements. The stone instantly absorbed the essence of Leo's light and darkness element.

Hmm, so it's like this. Leo infused his light and dark elements into the stone. Six hours had past and it was dark already. Leo, who was already tired finally stopped when the stone cracked. From the small crack, a force shattered the stone and Leo saw two swords laying inside.

As he reached for the swords, they turned to light and shot towards him. Unable to dodge, he sat in a meditative position and was trying to control the lights entering his body. Then, something unexpected happened. The lights started to release mana inside of Leo. The mana it released was tremendous. At that moment, a dark cloud was hovering above the inn. Luckily, it was night so no one noticed.

Leo who was holding in the pain he was experiencing, tightened his grip. With a burst of mana from his body, he finally opened his eyes. The lights moved in his body towards his hands and disappeared into his body. Then, a beautiful golden armour appeared around Leo. If you saw this, you would think he was an angel. Leo controlled his thoughts and a sword appeared on both his hands.

Leo gave a sinister smile and said to himself, I gained alot today. I still have 5,700,000 plus gold remaining and I had a breakthrough today. Five days from now, mom and dad wouldn't know what hit them.
