Chapter 38 - The Auction Part 2

The auctioneer explained : "These level two magic pills are exceptional, otherwise they wouldn't have been on sale here.

Their particularity is that they all have a rate of purity of one hundred percent. We will begin the auction at one hundred and fifty thousand gold coins."

The crowd was going mad, no one had ever seen magic pills with one hundred percent purity rate, so a batch of six hundred magic pills, eventually everyone wanted them. The auction quickly took off, and Celia's magic pills sold for nine hundred thousand gold coins.

Celia couldn't believe it : "Sweetie, you saw that, my magic pills were successful."

Anaya smiled : "Of course they were successful my love, they are like their creator, really exceptional."

Liam added : "I think the negotiation later on with the CEO will be in our favor."

Anaya thought  the same : "Clearly ! For daring to put level two magic pills up for sale here, he really values Celia's work, I like him, he has some guts."

The second item was a cauldron, Celia didn't have the use of a cauldron and besides she was certain that the one in their dimension was much better. The cauldron still sold for a million and two hundred thousand gold coins.

The third item was an assortment of high quality level six magic herbs, twenty stalks in total, for a starting bet of five hundred thousand gold. Celia shook her head to respond to Anaya and Liam's questioning gaze. She already had all of these magic herbs. They sold for a total of two million and five hundred thousand pieces of gold.

The fourth object was an egg, Celia was intrigued, an egg of what, she thought. She felt Anaya move behind her and asked her : "Sweetie, what's the matter ?"

Anaya wasn't sure how to explain it : "This egg, he called me, by my first name. It's like there's a telepathic connection between us, Liam, is that possible ? What is this egg ?"

Before Liam could say something Anaya said again : "He is calling for help, he said he has been poisoned, he just called me "my queen", what the hell ?"

Liam replied : "I've never seen an egg like this before. Anaya I have already explained to you that the clan of the red dragons was the most powerful among the mystical creatures, your bloodline will permit you to tame any mystical creatures, that's why he called you like that."

Liam was thinking, may be it was due too to that gold mixed with the red dragon birthmark, he said : "If you feel a telepathic connection with this egg then buy it ! This kind of bond is quite rare, and to have bonded, the mystical creature within must be very powerful."

The auctioneer finally presented the egg : "This egg is not for sale, it has been poisoned and the owner of the egg is looking for a remedy to cure it, the reward for whoever could do it, it's a detailed map of the Isle of Death, with the secret location of the palace of the legendary thunderbird on it.

The crowd got very excited, apparently the payoff was big, Celia thought.

Anaya whispered in her ear : "Do you think you can do something about this egg my love, can you save him ?"

Celia focused on the egg, she could see black particles all around the egg and inside too, those black particles were thick, it had nothing to do with the shadows surrounding the magical herbs.

Celia answered her honestly : "Liam can you put a force field around us please ?"

Liam did it right away he also wanted to know if Celia thought she could save that egg.

Celia continued : "I'm not sure I can remove all the poison but I can remove a lot of it, however I will have to expose Anaya and I."

Celia sighed she was hesitating was it really worth it : "Sweetie, I'm going to need to mix our energies to be more powerful, and there is something that I hid from the both of you.

In the last chest that we have opened, while you were engrossed with the weapons I found some green papers that can be used to cast spells, I introduced my spiritual energy inside fifty green papers and they can be use as a energy reserve, so I have a big stash energy to use but even with this reserve I'm not sure I can remove all the poison. So what do we do ?"

Anaya looked at Liam and pleaded : "Liam please, he asked me to save him, please let us give it a try."

Liam was wondering, that map was really priceless it was worth a try so he said : "Ok, i agree, but you will have to put some disguises, come here i have shapeshifter necklaces, it will alter your face and i went you to change your clothes into black ones and add a hood, it will do it.

Celia just focus on saving this egg and i will do the cover for you don't worry."

The girls nodded their head and Liam remove the force field, Liam looked to that guy with a silver color and he was staring at him too, Liam thought : good if something went wrong i hope he will be by my side to protect the girls. He smiled at him and followed the girls who were ready to jump on the stage.

Anaya took Celia in her arms in princess fashion and jump to the stage, Liam was just behind them.

Nobody else in the room had shown any sign to help that egg, so the auctioneer let them proceed.

Celia took out of her magic bag two bottles of the lake water and give them to Liam, then she took out the fifty green papers with her spiritual energy inside.

Anaya embrace Celia from behind and Celia took her hands and place them on her stomach, Anaya remembered that Celia told her that near the stomach was a energy center, Celia will probably need her hands to control so much energy that's why she put her hands on her stomach, to be free to move like she wanted.

Celia said to Anaya : "Sweetie, i will try my best to help him and i will have to drain our both energy reserve to their maximum, that's why i gave the bottles of the lake water to Liam, that will help us to restore our energy."

Then she turned to Liam and asked him : "You know what to do right ? I have such a bad feeling about it be careful brother okay."

Liam didn't expect that from Celia, he won't take any chances, if Celia had a bad feeling then they were probably in danger, he said : "Don't worry big brother won't let anything happened to you, just focus on your task and let me handle the rest."

The girls nodded and Celia put her hands on Anaya's hands which were on her stomach and began to mixed their energies.

Celia decided to use the reserve energy spells ten by ten it will give her five chances to get ride of a maximum of that poison.

First she guided with her hands the ten first batch of spells around the egg then she stretched out her hands and said "disperse", she directed all the spiritual energy that have been released from the green papers right to the black particles that were around the egg.

Her energy was so condensed that it could be seen with a naked eye. With her energy she was trying to get through these black particles that were really thick, she was trying to melt them.

After the ten first energy reserve spells was done, she continued with another ten and ten other again …

After using forty of them, Celia had managed to remove all the black particles around the egg and she was starting to attack the ones inside the egg, this is where things got tricky, she was already exhausted and she had to concentrate much more now to not get hurt the mystical creature inside the egg.

After the last ten green papers, she used their mixed energies, Celia could feel both Anaya's energies, her chakra and her red dragon energy, Celia have done her best but she knew she was running out of both their energies, before she collapsed she could tell she had removed sixty percent of the poison inside the egg it was much more that she had expected, she was glad.

Liam was ready, he could tell that celia was running out of energy both of them were very pale, when he saw the girls was collapsing he caught them in his arms and then he felt the killing intent coming from everywhere, it were mostly direct to that egg but some were direct to his girls.

Before he could reacted two men appeared to protect them, one was the hot guy with the silver color, the other one was the man in the corner that Celia couldn't tell the color.
