Drug-Eating Genius Mage – 123



Teina Auction House (2)

It is natural that the color and texture of magical power is different depending on the object or individual’s inclination but nevertheless one can feel the magical power that has clearly crossed a certain line and changed.

Magical power whose properties have changed beyond a certain limit.

For Lennok who has acquired the change in the nature of magical power it is a sensation he can grasp so clearly as if he could touch it with his hand.

Lennok quietly looked down at the object that radiated magical power then picked up a nearby pen and wrote a number below.

Jenny confirmed the identity of the object and looked slightly surprised.

“half. “You don’t need a lighter.”

A finger-sized lighter that shines silver. Should I call it a torch that produces a flame?

It has an antique gold frame and emits a faint magical power but it is not very noticeable.

Besides Lennok there were a couple of people who wrote down their numbers below but they were probably customers who liked the design rather than recognizing the true value of this item.

However Lennok was able to discover a glimmer of truth within this faint magical power.

Change in the nature of magical power. It is also the magical power of fire that has been refined in a very sophisticated way.

Probably what comes out when you turn on this lighter is definitely not an ordinary flame.

‘Change in attribute series properties. Considering that the momentum of magical power is this stable it’s probably… an item from the Magic Tower.’

If you find a magic tower that handles flame-type unique magic you will probably be able to trace the source of this item.

However Lennok was more interested in the magic power contained in the lighter itself than in finding the magic tower.

‘If we study the changes in the nature of magical power and dig backwards will we be able to reach flame-type unique magic?’

Flame-type magic is one of the most efficient types of magic in destroying and burning something as it is characterized by strong firepower and a strong spreading ability covering a wide area.

Although it is ambiguous to call it magic in terms of so-called utility that can be used in different ways its unique powerful firepower is still an attraction that magicians cannot give up.

It is not for nothing that the most preferred type of wizard in times of war is this type of firepower.

Until now I didn’t feel a great need for fire-type magic so I didn’t study it in depth but when the opportunity came there was no reason to turn it down.

In a similar way Lennoc searched for objects that felt some kind of strange magical power and submitted numbers.

Anyway all the items on the first floor are subject to private bidding so all you have to do is enter a price that is reasonable and take only the items you can get your hands on.

Jenny who was looking at Lennok from the side said with an absurd smile.

“It seems like you’re enjoying the auction house here more than I am.”

“I know when I’ll be able to come back in. “You can obtain the artifact from an advantageous position.”

Unlike other customers VIP status allows transactions and bidding to take place anonymously so from Lennok’s perspective it is possible to comfortably obtain the items he cares about without revealing his specialness.

If they could be affected by Lennok’s magical power they wouldn’t be ordinary items.

If there was even one item among these that could serve as an opportunity for proper magic research that alone could be said to be a sufficient benefit.

“It’s time. “Let’s quickly go to the third floor.”

At the point when I persuaded Liam and bid for a ticket to meet Yakseon I had accomplished my goal but entering the prices of the items I bid on on the first floor took place after the main auction on the third floor had ended.

Lennok also agreed with Jenny’s opinion that since he entered the auction house as a VIP it would be a good idea to watch the main auction before leaving.

The VIP room on the 3rd floor was a place where you could overlook the main auction taking place on the 2nd floor and had the advantage of being able to observe the situation much more comfortably instead of watching the auction while fighting with the crowd of people crowded on the 2nd floor.

In addition if there is competition at the same price VIPs have the privilege of being given priority so it will not be easy for VIPs visiting here to miss out on the item they want.

Lennok slightly shook his head when he saw the other guests sitting sparsely wearing masks that did not reveal their faces.

‘What magical power….’

The energy they all give off is unusual as if to prove that not just anyone can enter this place.

Rather than simply having a massive amount of horsepower many of them show a unique feeling of being hard or sharp.

It was proof that they were not ordinary superhumans but superhumans who constantly trained and trained their bodies.

Here Jenny stands out as having a rather low amount of magic power.

When Lennok and Jenny appeared with their arms folded other people’s attention was drawn for a moment but it quickly subsided.

This was possible because not only Jenny but also Lennok had some hidden magic power.

Even Evelyn Marcia couldn’t figure out that Lennok was hiding his identity as Van so it can be said that unless Lennok reveals himself there is no way his identity will be discovered.

The two looked for a sufficiently quiet place and chose chairs.

As soon as I sat down I used noise magic to stop the words from escaping.

When I gave Jenny a signal that it was okay her mouth naturally began to open.

“I heard that the water is pretty good today so a lot of famous people came.”

“…Do you recognize me even though I’m wearing a mask?”

“then. If you’re not going to notice just by covering the top of your face you shouldn’t work as a broker. Moreover the VIP wears a mask because he wants to hide his identity from other people downstairs but rather wants to show off to the people gathered here. “Look carefully.”

As Jenny said that she pointed to the two men sitting in the diagonal line behind them out of sight.

“Two people over there. You don’t even think about covering up the tattoos on your neck. It’s definitely a tattoo that could be covered up if you choose your clothes well but it’s displayed proudly. These are the Zhou brothers of the Six Flower Dan (六和團). “He is famous for being resourceful and skilled enough to keep the usury business intact in this city.”

Lennok’s eyes sank deeply upon seeing the presence of the two people.

According to Jenny’s assessment the magic power he emits is very stable and although he sits in a relaxed posture his breathing is flawless.

A thoroughly trained drone. You can guess the skill without having to check it.

If you hit them head-on how many minutes would you be able to kill them?

If you think about it that way he wasn’t an easy opponent.

“That’s the director of the Kraiburg Art Museum. One of the famous illusionists. “The woman leaning against the wall over there is a war mercenary who recently came to this city. After receiving dozens of love calls here and there she seems to have decided on her destination yesterday.”

“The woman sitting alone on the left is a pianist who is famous enough to hold a solo concert at the city council hall. Although he has hundreds of thousands of fans he also has a crazy hobby of collecting human bodies. “Everyone who knows knows.”

“……..”

Even though she was talking about people who were completely unrelated to the two Jenny knew how to arouse the listener’s interest.

While he generously tells stories about the various connections and knowledge he has as a broker he cuts them off neatly without being boring and constantly changes the topic.

Thanks to this Lennok was able to listen to her story without getting bored while waiting for the auction to start and was soon able to find out the identities of the VIPs sitting around him.

Everyone has their own business or belongs to a famous organization.

In the end if you have a certain level of skill there is no significant advantage in remaining as a freelancer.

It is impossible to maintain a freelance life forever.

One day Lennok will have to choose whether to start a business under his own name or join an organization.

Even while I was lost in thought Jenny continued speaking.

“The ones sitting at the very back of the line… are the Arashak Exploration Team. This is a relics exploration team that has made a name for itself by producing successive results over the past few years but for several quarters this year there was no significant performance. “There were rumors that he was involved in a major dispute but it’s been a while since he’s been seen in a situation like this.”

While Jenny was muttering while tilting her head slightly the auction began.

The host who had been talking for a while on the podium moved to the side and at the same time the first object appeared from behind the thick curtain.

[Then we will now begin the PG-47th auction!! The first item I will introduce to you is the ‘Twilight Scale’!!]

[It was originally owned by a very prominent collector but he decided to give it away just this once because he needed cash for a personal matter. Everyone knows what this means right? There is only one chance today.]

“……..”

Lennok narrowed his eyes at the sight of the bronze scales swinging behind the host.

Although the distance is a bit far away the various magical powers are mixed together to form a colony so that even Lennok’s gaze cannot easily determine their identity.

In particular the magic power swirling around both plates of the scale was of a type that even Lennok had never seen before so it was difficult to guess its nature.

Considering its nature as a scale it is probably an object used to determine the value or concept of an object.

While I was thinking the auction started.

“200 million cells.”

“300 million.”

“500 million.”

“850 million.”

The price jumps instantly as voices come from all over the place.

Jenny who was sitting next to me whispered in a low voice.

“It’s something that’s revealed during an auction so I brought something pretty strong.”

“Do you know what that scale is?”

“It was owned by a famous art museum curator and he said he usually used it to identify fake works of art. “I heard there were a lot of people coveting it because it had a very good batting average so the price will probably go up from there.”

“You’re crazy….”

The scale which soared to over 1 billion cells in an instant fell into the hands of a middle-aged woman who bid more than twice the original bid price in the VIP section on the 3rd floor.

The host who was excited about the first item that was auctioned off at a price that exceeded expectations introduced the following items one after another and excited customers started bidding one after another.

A pocket watch handmade by an artisan that is said to have been discontinued. An ancient history book with more than half of the pages torn out.

Even while working as a freelancer I even wandered around and found artifacts containing space-based techniques that were difficult to find.

Unable to bear it Lennok also participated in the auction but the price soared in an instant and he was forced out.

“Tsk….”

Next to Lennok who was drooling Jenny shook her head with a puzzled look.

“If you want to buy those items you have to make a decision raise funds and plan thoroughly. “Otherwise the rich people gathered here are going to rip you off like this.”

“……..”

Even though we’ve come this far there’s still nothing that falls easily into Lennok’s hands.

The flow of funds from the Balkan metropolis is astronomical but Lennok has not yet been able to properly take advantage of the flow.

This cannot be solved simply by working hard as a freelancer.

A new alternative was needed in a more fundamental sense.

While Lennok was worried the auction which had been in full swing was reaching its peak.

[I’ve waited a long time!! Today I will introduce you to the most valuable item at this auction house right now…!!]

The host’s voice trembles with excitement and the other people sitting in the VIP seats begin to talk among themselves one by one.

Lennok also tilted his head slightly at the scent of magic flowing from behind the curtain behind the host.

‘White… Is it a healing type of magic? It’s a very unfamiliar feeling… but it’s so sophisticated that I’m impressed. Rather than a change in personality it feels like…..”

If you were to insert the magnetic field directly into the artifact wouldn’t it give off this kind of energy?

That was tantamount to saying that the item being presented now was by Lennok’s standards a piece comparable to that of a level 6 or higher wizard.

The curtain opened wide and a dazzling white light blinded everyone’s eyes mercilessly.

The host’s excited voice rang out loudly to all the guests at the auction house who lost sight for a moment.

[This is the ‘Archangel’s Compassion’ an ancient relic that was the symbol of Irina Pesfield the leader of the Arashak Ruins Exploration Team!!]

Immediately after that a pure white cane the size of an forearm appeared before everyone’s eyes.

Holy white energy and a pair of white wings floating in the air on either side of the staff.

Real not illusory soft wings are slowly flapping and supporting the staff.

It is clear that it is an extraordinary artifact just by its appearance but the magical power emitted by the rainbow-colored gem embedded at the tip of the staff refines the beauty of such an artifact to the limit.

Among the artifacts Lennok has seen so far it is the highest level. It seemed to be by far the most valuable item at this auction house.
