Chapter 108: the auction starts, the cursed box from Egypt

As for why coming with Dumbledore to this auction,

It is actually because money can be made again but the materials are rare and hard to obtain once lost.

When they came in there is still time before the auction.

During this time many people socialize with each other.

Dumbledore introduced Jonathan to some of his friends and also mentioned about some of his rivals.

Well he might be a great mage at 100 percent but there are still people right below him at 99.99 percent and even lower.

So if Dumbledore dies then these people would take the position of the strongest wizard.

That is not all; there are many people from other countries that came here for the auction.

Some of them are very good at transfiguration, potions making, artifact making...

Dumbledore has a wide range of network.

Unfortunately after his death all the favors that he has from these bigwigs are useless.

So Dumbledore tried to transfer those favors to Jonathan.

The main things Dumbledore asked to receive are the rare materials that Jonathan needed.

That is not all; Dumbledore asked them about some complicated rune books from various countries.

These runes are the basis for the spells and different materials reacts differently for different runes.

After a while the auction started.

The auctioneer is the man with good appearance wearing classy suit and robes that match them.

He stood on the stage to introduce the first item.

Naturally in auctions the first and last items are of great value or of high bidding value.

“Hello everyone let us start with the world renowned magic auction.

The most anticipated first item of the auction,

The cursed box from Egypt”

After he said that a box appeared on the display table.

The box is made of sand stone but it looked solid.

The surface is packed densely with hieroglyphs.

Just looking at it makes people dizzy.

Also the strange energy emitting from the box is very strong almost creating a ripple around the box.

Jonathan looked at it for a moment and felt nauseating.

Even with his level in occlumency and legilimency, Jonathan is still not strong enough in mind.

Dumbledore helped stabilize Jonathan and said.

You need to practice the mind arts more in the future.

As he said that the auctioneer started to speak.Điscover new chapters at novelhall.com

Well Jonathan did feel a glimpse of life energy from the bracelet but nothing else.

It went for around 30 thousand gold galleons.

Then there is a bronze plate which is said to possess strong defensive runes from the Greek magician.

Dumbledore looked calm and explained to Jonathan that this bronze plate was damaged and it could not be used properly.

Finally it went for only 7 thousand gold galleons.

The next item is important for Harry and Dumbledore.

It was a piece of metal that is around 5 grams looked like a fingernail.

“This is Oricalcum metal that was obtained from the deep sea exploration from the muggle world in an old boat transporting goods from Atlantis to Greece.

Unfortunately it sunk during the battle.

I presume everyone know the usage of Oricalcum metal is.

But still let me give you a brief explanation.

It is said that Oricalcum is the highest conductive material for magic in the world.

The ancient god level artifacts of the old times used to use this metal.

Unfortunately the process of refining and making artifacts of that level is gone now.

Hope that everyone would be enthusiastic about this metal and the starting bid is 20 thousand gold galleons.

Every successive bid is no less than a thousand gold galleons...”

As soon as he finished the people started to bid quickly.

“21 thousand gold galleons”

“23 thousand gold galleons”

The price soon reached 38 thousand gold galleons.

Then Jonathan made the bid of 40 thousand gold galleons.

One should know that the entire wealth that Harry had at the start is only 50 thousand gold galleons.

Just from the one could say how much 40 thousand gold galleons are worth to a wealthy family.

Well it is a big number for many people.

But to Jonathan it is just a passing number because of all the shares of various businesses that are in his hands.
