Death... and me
chapter-566

As mentioned before, Frandin received a decent number of Rank Two Spirit Stones for him to use in the auction. After all, the auction house was sure that the weapons he brought would go for at least that little. That being said, he immediately began to bid after hearing Rean's orders.

"140!"

"160!"

"200!"

"240!"

In the end, Frandin bought the Frigid Clear Vine for 240 Rank Two Spirit Stones. The vine was then brought to his room, which he put away. Following that, a few more items appeared until finally, Rean's first sword came out.

"Some of you were already expecting it to come out. This is one of the Earth Middle-Level Weapons for auction today. It's made with Katus Ore and is of excellent quality. The initial price is 250 Rank Two Spirit Stones. Each bid has to be at least 30 stones higher."

Unsurprisingly, the fight for the sword started. However, it didn't go as far as it could. After all, everyone now knew that there were more of those coming up later. Since Rean didn't want to sell just a few of them per week, he would have to give up a few Spirit Stones.

"400 Rank Two Spirit Stones."

"450!"

"480!"

Eventually, the first sword was sold for 480 Rank Two Spirit Stones. Following that, a few more of Rean's weapons came out, which increased Rean's own fortune. Well, Rean wasn't feeling too happy since it couldn't compare to how much he had in Sunkan Planet.

The auction proceeded smoothly without any issues. Rean's weapons didn't take too long to be sold since they were worth around the same price. In the end, Rean made 7460 Rank Two Spirit Stones with them. It's just that they would have to take it out after the auction was over. Besides, they might need to buy something else.

The rarity of the items then began to increase, including their prices. At some point, Rean found a nice piece of Peak-Level material for sale.

"The next item is ten kilograms of Goulan Ore. This is a Water Element Material mostly used for crafting equipment. The initial price is 500 Rank Two Spirit Stones, and each bid has to go at least 100 Stones higher."

Rean immediately asked Frandin to bid for the ore. Fortunately, there were almost no blacksmiths in the auction. That being said, the bidding war didn't go too far before Rean got the Goulan Ore for 1200 Rank Two Spirit Stones.

'Nice. I can use it to make a new staff for Malaka after I succeed in forging Earth Peak-Level Equipment. This one seems to be very compatible with the other Peak-Level ores in the Dimensional Realm, so I should be able to make a nice alloy with it.'

Rean had obtained a lot of Transten Ore back in Sunkan Planet. However, there wasn't much of a point in keeping so much. That being said, he took half of his amount out and traded it for other Earth Peak-Level ores. His actual ore collection in the Dimensional Realm was quite plentiful.

The auction had finished around an hour later. In the end, Rean wasn't interested in the rest of the items being put for sale. Because of the lack of Spiritual Energy on this planet, most of the things that the Zasfins thought to be good weren't anything that could catch Rean's attention.

Back in the private room, Rean and Frandin were received by Paciu once more.

"The auction was a success this time. However, it is as I mentioned to you before. Because you wanted to sell too many weapons at once, the price you got for them wasn't as high as it could be."

Frandin nodded, seeming to not mind it too much.

"It's fine. Just give me the Spirit Stones."

Paciu then knocked on the table before an employee entered the room with a big sack of Rank Two Spirit Stones.

"Do you need me to send some of my guards to help protect your Spirit Stones?"

Frandin shook his head.

"There's no need."

Soon after, he passed the bag to Rean.

"Take care of it. Remember, if you lose it, you will pay with your head."

Rean pretended to feel some fear as he grabbed the bag.

"Yes, young master."

Lastly, Paciu tried one last time to make a deal with Frandin.

"Please tell the blacksmith of your family that we would love to receive more of his weapons. The offer of a 20% cut will continue to be valid for a long time."

Frandin nodded as he said.

"I'll tell the blacksmith later. Well, then. I'll take my leave. Let's go."

Frandin and Rean left the Auction House after that. However, the big bag on Rean's hands quickly caught a few of the participants' eyes. Paciu, of course, expected that already. He then asked one of his subordinates to follow Rean and Frandin and intervene if someone tried to attack them for the Spirit Stones.

Unfortunately for them, be it Paciu's subordinates or those who followed them because of the bag, all of them lost Rean and Frandin from their Spiritual Senses a minute later.

Sure enough, Rean covered both of them with his Light and Spiritual Sense bending technique. No one could see them anymore. Following that, Rean sent the bag of Spirit Stones into the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm before reappearing somewhere else with Frandin.

"Phew... now we have some Spirit Stones for cultivation. Let's head back to the Shaz Treasures Hall to get our items back."

Frandin nodded as he looked at Rean. He already lost the feeling of being surprised with the items disappearing around him. He didn't know how Rean did that, but it was obvious that he had some type of storage equipment that he didn't know about.

It didn't take that long for them to arrive at the Treasures Hall. Naturally, the Soul Crystal Flower Petal and the Yin Robe were reserved for them. Frandin then received 3200 Rank Two Spirit Stones from Rean and paid for them.

Rean and Frandin then went on to buy a few other things like food and some daily items. Following that, Rean disappeared with Frandin from Lumeria City. Even though quite a few Zasfins looked for them, no one could find a single trace of them in the city anymore.
