Chapter 59: Tumultuous Events XV (1)

“20 talets!”

“20 talets 200 silver!”

“40 talets!”

“...!”

Bahamut was carefully examining the woman in the maroon robe.

It was a woman who doubled the price and silenced the other participants in an instant.

‘That person... is definitely the person who bought that big gemstone the other day...’

Bahamut couldn’t easily forget it, considering that the gemstone still held the spot of most expensive item they had sold amongst the countless items being sold in the entirety of the auction.

‘Even though she spent so much money, she still doesn’t hesitate to raise the price to buy things...who the hell is she? A famous merchant? Or a rich lord?’

There were a few characters that came to his mind. However, it was impossible to identify a person who was hiding their identity with a robe, depending on just their spending of money.

‘If I could see the color of her hair or eyes, I’d be able to tell...’

Intrigued by such curiosity, Bahamut continued to pay attention to her actions.

“30 talets 240 silver!”

“50 talets.”

“...”

A very aggressive rise in price!

If the woman decided on something she wanted to buy, she’d wait until the price had reached a moderate hight, and then blocked the mouths of her competitors by crushing them with an overwhelming price.

A clear indication of intention that there would be no concession for what she wanted.

And... driven by the atmosphere, the host shouted with a confident voice.

“This is it! It is ambergris, a rock made from the dragon’s spittle that only appears in legends!”

“Hooo...ambergris?”

“That’s right...it’s truly a great item worthy of its name...it deserves to be called a legendary item.”

Ambergris.

In fact, it was a substance produced in the digestive system of sperm whales, and it usually looked like a stone that gave off a bad smell. But when it is dissolved in alcohol, it was said to be the best perfume in all ages!

Even in Bahamut’s original world, ambergris the size of a human head would cost hundreds of millions of dollars. The value of that huge ambergris in front of him was beyond imagination!

However... apart from that fact, Bahamut, who was in the seller’s position, had no intention of handing it over to anyone.

‘Ambergris...to produce this much scent from such a distance...I’ll definitely get my hand on that one.’

Bahamut had even chosen to sell things that were too precious for the purpose of avoiding unnecessary troubles, but...with the knowledge he had known from the beginning, and actually smelling it the other day, he made a firm decision.

‘I must buy that!’

As Bahamut made up his mind, an electric atmosphere crackled in the auction house, hinting at an imminent eruption of a financial war!
