"Thank you," I said as I brought the red-root from the small stall before moving to another store.
I have been here for four hours and didn't plan to go back soon.
I have sold and brought a massive number of things, but there are more. The repository is filled with things, that I need to sell and there are a lot of things I have to buy in exchange for them.
In the critter pod, I had amassed a lot of resources and there are also resources from the people, I killed.
For a long while, I wanted to unload a lot of things, but I never could in fear of standing out.
Here, there is no danger of that.
I stood out here, especially in the past five days, where am I spending hours and massive resources to shop, but I can handle it.
All the people who are keeping an eye on are the Earth Sovereign and so of them are pretty powerful, but not a single one is a threat to .
Hun!
Another hour and a half passed, when suddenly, I sensed the change, and it spread so fast, that within a mont, the whole market had quieted down.
Imdiately, I whipped my neck toward the curtain, and as I had expected, there was change. It is not a big change, but here one is powerful enough to spot the change that occurred.
"Finally; I could go ho," said the woman beside .
The curtain begins to open, but except for the few Sky Sovereigns, nobody has gone there. No shops had closed, or people moved out of the market, but the whole environnt had changed.
The opening process had started, but it would take one to three days, before it beca safe enough, that people could enter inside.
I have been waiting for this for a long ti; not only because I could finally get out of this ruin, but also because now, the people will bring out the real things.
The preparations for it had already been made two months ago. They have constructed an open roof auction hall; I have already secured myself a place and would be adding my things.
The action will also be safer since it is alkaz who had organized it, but I have taken enough precautions and will take more during the auction tonight.
Hun!
I was in my thoughts when I sensed the change. My core begins to beat in excitent; every second, sothing seems to appear, that it wants, and it is happening at an extrely fast speed.
'So, they had started bringing out,' I thought and surfed the market, bringing out the things that made the eyes of people red.
I didn't even go back for lunch or eat at the restaurant at the market. There are a lot of restaurants in the market, with so very good chefs. I had eaten quite a lot of them since I had finished my breakthrough.
Though, I will not, now.
There is no ti. I want to shop so much that if it had been possible, I would have brought out my clones.
I could see the soul sense in , so of the people noticed , but most were from the people selling things. A few of them are of the Sky Sovereigns, which scared a little, but I continued.
Yes, they are dangerous, and I am no match for them, but they won't do anything to , till I enter through the curtain.
That is enough for . I will make sure that these people won't be able to find when I enter the curtain.
By the ti, the evening ca, there was a huge crowd on the market despite its expanding with a lot of stores appearing. I think, nearly all the people in the city are in the market.
This is likely to be the last day, and everyone wants to use the opportunity to the fullest.
I once again appeared by the pillar and took out things and added, things to it. I had also approved and rejected thousands of trades.
I have been coming to the pillars at every hour; they are the best places to trade large amounts of goods.
At eighty-thirty, I ate at the restaurant. I am hungry, I have not eaten anything since breakfast at dawn and I need to be in the best shape of things, that will start at ten.
When it was, fifteen minutes to ten; I entered the huge open hall, that had a place for three thousand people. Which is big, big enough, considering the city had over a hundred thousand people.
Not everyone can enter this place either; one needs to show a sufficient amount of resources of superior quality.
"Welco, you all to the Grand Auction," said the beautiful woman.
She is a woman with purple skin, blue shiny horns, and a long tail. She had long blue hair, which looked like they were crafted from precious crystals.
She is not only beautiful, but also powerful. A Peak Sky Sovereign and felt powerful enough, I don't think, most of the Peak Sky Sovereigns here would be her match.
She introduced herself before the auction began.
There are three thousand things for auction; seven of which have co from . I have a target to buy, a hundred and three things, but I would need those thirteen things.
The auction started, and it was fast and anonymous.
One couldn't tell, who had bet on things. Everyone had given the crystal, through which they could bet and what they bet would appear in the sky in massive letters.
It also made the process quite faster, with people out-betting each other in a fraction of a seconds.
It is why, it didn't even take for the first thousand things to be sold.
It is not only due to the fast better but also the efficient approach of managent. They would simply make the things appear on stage and with information about it floating above.
They didn't even let the people examine the things with their soul sense.
That changed after the two thousand things were auctions. For the last thousand things, they have given ten seconds for people to see things with their soul sense.
It might seem short, but it is enough to get a basic idea about the thing.
The betting was intense, and people had really good things. Many tis, I have been out-betted many tis, and it made frustrated enough, that I wanted to pull my hair.
Soon, I was at the top hundred, and the woman returned, and the auction beca more like a conventional auction where she introduced each thing and gave people minutes to check it out.
"Sold for four tal essences, fruits of argane brass," declared the woman, and the thing disappeared.
I had brought out the big guns; I need to get those things which are equally rare as the fruit.
It was late at night when the auction ended. There was a slight disappointnt since I wasn't able to get a single thing from the top of them.
The prices were too big, and I didn't want to bring out things like cloud tar soul, which would make these people break all the rules to search for .
At late night, the auction ended, but few people left.
There are more things to buy and sell, with hundreds of small stages appearing. The individual people floated on them and brought the things they wish to sell.
