He glanced around and soon found their seats on the second floor. A few figures like Duke Adhemar, Ice Queen, d.u.c.h.ess Margery, Alius's first disciple Zivior, caught his attention.
'Margrave Eliot didn't come for this auction.' He wondered if the dispute would occur between the royal family and Light church.
He shook his head and s.h.i.+fted his gaze towards the auction stage.
It didn't take long for the auction to begin after everyone arrived in their seats.
To his surprise, Tabitha personally hosted the auction. Once she arrived on the stage and made a polite bow towards the audience.
"Ladies and gentlemen welcome. Let the auction begin!" Her voice echoed clearly in the large hall without any enchanting sound artifacts. Those simple sentences made everyone stop their chattering and attracted their eyes towards the stage.
The first item to come up was a low tier magic artifact called devil's claw.
'A dagger.'
"Devil's claw, a masterpiece of Kaummiths inst.i.tute's Alchemy teacher, Ubius. There are two zero-tier dark element spells models inscribed inside this dagger. One is 'black flame,' and another one is 'Devil's curse.' It is a rare, high-quality piece among the low tier magic artifact. The starting price is 50 white gold coins, and the least bidding increment is five white gold."
"55 white gold."
As the first item of the auction, the price for the item was quite good. Just as Tabitha finished introducing the item, someone raised their paddle.
"60 white gold."
"65."
"70."
…
Naturally, few people had their eyes on it, and in a short time, the price went up for 100 white gold. Before finally brought by a wealthy and influential merchant from the capital for 120 white gold.
After that Devil's claw, Tabitha quickly auctioned two low tier magic tools with good quality.
Although Abium wanted to get some artifacts, he didn't have any extra money.
'My first priority is rescuing Helena's sister.'
He didn't have to wait for long. The fourth auctioned item soon appeared, and it was the Abium and Helena eagerly waited for.
Soon a guard carries a cage covered in silk cloth and walked towards that stage. Once Tabitha removed that silk cloth on that cage, some soon let out a gasp. A small figure appeared in front of everyone's visions. Camilla stood there inside that cage with an anxious expression. Her both green eyes wandering everywhere and seems searching for something.
Abium and Baron hold Helena from not doing any reckless actions and waited for Tabitha's announcement.
"The next item is a fairy; one of our customers captured it and placed it here for auction. We already checked her blood, and the quality is so pure. I am sure everyone is aware of the value of a fairy. The starting price of this fairy is 200 white gold, and the least bidding increment is 20."
"220."
"240."
"260."
"280 white gold."
…..
Just as Tabitha finished her speaking, voices echoed here and there in the audience.
But Abium wasn't anxious, because he noticed the price was increasing very slowly after reaching 400.
In other words, most people felt this fairy was worth only this much, so it would be unprofitable to chase the price much higher.
Abium just waited for the bidding to die down. Meanwhile, Helena anxiously stared at her sister and started sobbing.
When the price reached 680 white gold, the venue went silent. Most of the people who had taken part in the bidding were shaking their heads, wearing smiles that carried a hint of ridicule. It was already a foolish waste of money.
Even if the fairy was rare, it used only for two purposes. One was some n.o.bles buy these fairies to keep in their homes. Some say that keeping a fairy would bring luck.
The other was fairies' blood would increase one's lifespan for three years. Although it was just three years, a few people already had their eyes on this fairy.
One of them was Count Tibal. He already crossed eighty years old, and if he didn't drink a few fairies blood, he would definitely die in a few years.
He didn't have any high elemental affinity to join the magic academy, so this was the only way to increase his lifespan. If he drinks fairies blood a few times, then he might live for another twenty to thirty years.
When Count Tibal heard from his henchmen that a fairy appeared in this auction, he became overjoyed.
He could easily earn this 680 gold coins from the tax money. A smile emerged on his face when noticing no one was bidding.
"680 white gold, once… Going twice... 680 white gold, if there are no higher bids…"
"800 white gold."
Just as Tabitha was about to announce the deal, a voice came from the back of the second floor.
A bid of 800 white gold made the originally quiet venue become rather lively. The people who had partic.i.p.ated in the bidding for the item couldn't help turning to look at their direction.
Bidding 400 white gold for a fairy had already surpa.s.sed the normal value.
Soon everyone was able to notice who it was.
The one who made that bid was not Abium but Baron.
As soon as they saw baron, everyone became puzzled. Who would believe a veteran soldier like Baron would bid for a fairy?
But it only made count Tibal frown a bit, as he didn't put much thought into it.
In Count Tibal's eyes, Baron was a just ordinary soldier who had no background and no money.
But still, 800 white gold made him narrow his eyes.
'Who gave that much money to him?' Although he got the n.o.ble t.i.tle a few years ago, but Count still views him as a commoner.
He gritted his teeth and raised his bid.
"900 white gold."
"1,000 White gold."
"1,100."
"1,200."
Before count speaking, Baron raised another 100 white gold coins. The whole auction hall went abrupt silence. This time Count didn't bid because he knew it already exceeded the original amount.
'Ha! Then I will just have to s.n.a.t.c.h it from him.'
He soon signaled his personal guard to watch that group.
While Count Tibal was thinking how to s.n.a.t.c.h that fairy from that Baron, Abium soon arrived at the stage and had carried that small figure from the cage. As soon as Camilla noticed her sister, she flew using her tiny wings and flew towards her sister's hand.
Soon, Abium and Baron signaled them to calm down and turned their gaze towards the stage.
Many started to debate about why that baron brought that fairy. But soon, they got their answer when noticing Helena and Camilla.
Abium also sighed in relief but suddenly felt a glare from behind. Soon he noticed Count Tibal, and many of his soldiers started monitoring their every movement.
'Oh? So quick. Well, I didn't have to worry about them inside this auction house.' He gave a cold snort and s.h.i.+fted his eyes towards the stage.
After three more items auctioned, and with Tabitha overseeing the auction, they sold at a decent price.
"The next auctioned item is a second-tier spell model."
Tabitha's introduction caused sudden quietness. Soon, several first-tier mages and two or three second-tier mages who attend this auction showed their interest. Abium also s.h.i.+fted his gaze towards that spell scroll.
Spell models rarely appear in this auction.
"I believe everyone present has heard the name of this spell before. Once second-tier mage Tarnas used his original spell to kill the Wadel kingdom's three second-tier mages ten years ago. Although he died after that battle without leaving much behind, still his family members found this spell in his personal cabin. That's right; this spell is Ice net."
Tabitha had just finished her speaking when the entire venue suddenly became quiet. The strange silence stretched on interminably, before finally burst into a huge commotion!
"...Ice net!"
'This spell created personally by that mage Tarnas.' Azolla's voice echoed.
Abium knows nothing about that mage except he was a young mage who once terrorized all the enemy mages ten years ago.
"The bidding for this Ice Net spell will start at 500 white gold. The minimum bid increment is 50 gold."
The starting price was so high, which made Abium eyes wide opened.
In the past, his whole life saving was 500 to 600 white gold coins.
They immediately set the auction of the Ice Net spell with a wave of bids.
"600."
"800."
"1,000."
…
Less than a minute pa.s.sed, and the current bid for that Ice Net spell model had already reached 1000 gold coins.
And it seemed that was just the beginning.
The following bids quickly overtook that price, and by the time it reached 2,500 white gold, it suddenly stopped, letting people gasp of breath.
But it followed by another round of the compet.i.tion. Crazy bids announced one after another. That 'Ice Net' spell somehow managed to reach the incredible price of 5000 white gold.
In the past, when Abium brought a small house near the n.o.ble street, it cost him a total of 400 white gold.
The mages in the venue were going crazy over this second-tier spell. There were more than a hundred apprentice mages, dozens of first-tier mages, and even some second-tier mages attendance at this Orchid auction house.
The thirst for the second tier spell was something that those ordinary merchants or n.o.bles couldn't understand. Meanwhile, he was in deep thought Azolla's voice echoed inside his mind.
'Kid! It must be a unique spell. Although it isn't useful to you, these unique spells are hard to find. Some unique spells might deal more damage to the opponents than normal ones.'
Abium nodded his head and soon s.h.i.+fted his gaze towards the auction stage.
Abium and others watched the play of many mages fighting for that spell model.
Soon a voice came from one of those VIP areas.
"8,000 White gold."
It was Zivior, who had been silent for a long time, finally made his bid.
"9,500."
Another voice came out from the opposite side, where Zivior sat.
"I really sorry, Zivior. I am also interested in this unique spell model."
A violent cough came out as an answer, as well as the even higher bid. "11,000!"
"13,000 white gold."
"14,000!"
Once again, a mighty voice came out from Zivior, and no new bid appeared.
Soon a mage wore a blue robe arrived near that stage and took that 'Ice Net' spell scroll.
Most of the second tier mages didn't fancy the following several items. Mostly apprentice mages and first-tier mages started to bid. Meanwhile, other small n.o.bles and merchants watched the bidding.
Most of the items starting price itself nearly 1000 white gold. His ice elemental crystal also auctioned for 8,500 white gold. He almost fainted when he noticed that much amount for a single small crystal. Abium wiped the sweat on his face and soon saw the next item was the Nether crystal.
Soon all of them became quiet, and Abium guessed the show just began.
The most precious and shocking items would appear in the end.
"The next lot is the finale of the auction."
Tabitha said while lifting the silk cloth that was on the pedestal, exposing a gray crystal.
"I introduce to everyone, Nether crystal."
"Oh, my G.o.d…"
"How could a Nether crystal appear here!"
Tabitha had yet to finish when the entire venue broke into a commotion. The Nether crystal brought an explosive shock to all the mages and the necromancers.
Most of the mages immediately identified those crystals in a single glance. Abium noticed it's going to be chaos after the auction was over.
Necromancers would get their hands on this crystal at all costs.
"This crystal will start at the price of 2,000 white gold, and the least bid increment is 200 gold."
Tabitha officially called for bids on the final one with a pleased smile.
"10,000 white gold." Tabitha's words had just finished when a voice came out from the crowd.
"That crystal will belong to me!" A hooded figure stood up and proclaimed arrogantly. But there were few other figures let out a sneer, and another voice echoed.
"You said this crystal would belong to you?" Tabitha had yet to say anything when a chilling voice appeared from the VIP area.
"11,000."
This clear provocation was to challenge that necromancer. Abium nervously sat on the seat and observed who was provoking that necromancer.
'Ah! It's Lord Ubius.' Abium knew about him from memory. Although he died during the grand banquet, still he was another second-tier mage.
"12,000."
"13,000."
"14,000."
"15,000."
"16,000."
"17,000."
…
Two men kept outbidding each other, and in no time, the price had reached 17,000, with no one getting involved. It was such a big venue with so many forces, but no one else had placed a bid. Fortunately, it didn't last long.
Once the price reached 17,000, Ubius couldn't keep bidding. There was nothing he could do about it because he already spent mostly on one intermediate tier magic crystal.
Soon that hooded figure noticed the opposite party gave up. A smile appeared.
But the winning against Ubius doesn't mean that the auction for that Nether crystal had ended. On the contrary, the real auction could finally begin.
Just as expected, Ubius withdrawal followed by another new bid.
"18,000."

Abium glanced at the source of that voice and saw that bid had come from a middle-aged man that appears 40 years age, tall stature, and a stern gaze.
'Another second-tier necromancer, kid.' Azolla soon scanned that figure and said to him.
Abium already guessed and simply watched them quietly.
"20,000!"
That hooded figure gave a cold glare at the middle-aged man, and everyone heard gritting sound came from his mouth.
"21,000."
"22,000."
"23,000."
"25,000!"
Then the entire venue became silent for a few minutes.
"Number 29 has placed a bid for 25,000 white gold, is there anyone willing to bid higher?"
Tabitha had a slightly flushed face on the stage, and her voice was louder than usual.
Although Orchid auction house made quite a few sales in the past few times, this time, the nether crystal auctioned for a very high price made her rattle a little.
"In that case, 25,000 white gold once, 25,000 white gold twice, 25,000 white gold going three times, sold! Congratulations, Number 29, you have won the Nether crystal for 25,000 white gold."
The hammer in Tabitha's hand fell down as she announced the end of the auction. But suddenly silence took over that grand hall. When the hammer hit the ground, the whole auction hall began to shake.
