Death… And Me Chapter 564 - Offer

Chapter 564 - Offer

Rean changed their appearance once again before heading to the Auction House. There, they were immediately guided by the attendant to the room where they met Paciu before. Well, that was quite convenient since Paciu also wanted to see them. Sure enough, Paciu received the message and came out to see them himself.

"Welcome back, young master. I know you came here for the auction, so I was surprised to see that you wanted to see me before that. So, what would this young master want from our Auction House? Let me warn you. Now that you put those weapons for auction, we can't take them back anymore. After all, they have already been added to the list of items to be shown on stage."

Frandin smiled before shaking his head.

"I have no intention in taking those five weapons back. In fact, I found out that the Spirit Stones I would get from them was far lacking for my needs. Because of that, I brought with me a few more weapons I would like you to put for auction. Is it possible to add them to today's auction?"

Paciu couldn't help but widely grin. That was just the thing he wanted the most.

"Hahaha! But of course! Our Auction House will never reject a good deal. As long as they're of the same quality as the previous ones, we would love to fulfill your request."

Frandin nodded before putting a big sack on the table. In an instant, Paciu understood that there wasn't just one or two more weapons inside, but a lot of them.

"I have a total of thirteen weapons at the same level of quality. Feel free to browse them."

Paciu's smile froze when he heard that.

"Th-thirteen?"

Paciu opened the sack and saw the items inside. There were five swords, three sabers, three spears, an axe, and another pair of dual daggers. After confirming that they were indeed all at the Earth Middle-Level, he took a deep breath.

Paciu was an appraiser. Naturally, he could tell with a glance that these pieces of equipment had just been crafted. At the very least, they had never been used before. But he was pretty sure in his judgment of newly crafted equipment.

"Young master... I can tell that these weapons have just been crafted. Obviously, this young master knows someone capable of doing such an amazing job. Not to mention that the materials necessary to make Earth Middle-Level Equipment are anything but easy to find. As far as I can see, the blacksmith this young master is acquainted with has his own supply."

Paciu then offered.

"Young master, I would like to offer a deal with this blacksmith under you. Usually, our Auction House would take 30% of the value of the sold items as payment. However, we're willing to do 20% as long as your blacksmith continues to supply us with his weapons. How about that?"

Frandin narrowed his eyes as he talked with Rean through Spiritual Sense.

'What should I say? You're that blacksmith, you know?'

Rean immediately refused the idea as he replied.

'Tell him that the blacksmith has no interest in making deals. After all, we're leaving this city as soon as we finish buying everything we need.'

Frandin nodded, finding it a pity that Rean refused that deal. It definitely looked very profitable.

"Sorry, but I can't talk on the blacksmith's behalf. However, I doubt he will agree on this deal since he won't be staying in the city for much longer."

Paciu sighed after hearing that.

"I see... Then I should offer you one last thing. Putting all these weapons for auction at once would reduce their value. The best way would be for you to put only three each time. You can definitely make 20 to 30% more profit if you wait for that much."

Rean didn't care about that. He simply had way too many Middle-Level materials for forging in the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm. In fact, he had a lot of High and Peak-Level materials as well. One must remember that Kentucky found two Heaven-Level mineral deposits. Those same deposits had High and Peak-Level ores surrounding them. That being said, those Middle-Level weapons were worth nothing in his eyes.

Frandin understood the message and immediately replied.

"There's no need. We're in a hurry here, so we would like to have all the weapons sold today."

Paciu nodded, not minding too much. They would lose a good chunk of Spirit Stones if they sold it like that. However, they would lose much more if Frandin decided to take the weapons back.

"Very well. However, remember that my offer still stands. If your blacksmith decides that he wants some extra Spirit Stones, we will gladly sell his weapons again at a smaller fee."

Frandin nodded with a smile.

"Very well. In that case, I'm heading to the auction now. I'll leave these weapons with you to take care of it."

Paciu then offered something else.

"Oh, since that's the case, please let me offer you one of our private chambers. We keep everyone's ident.i.ties inside those places a secret, so you can bid as much as you want."

Rean agreed with the idea. Frandin then accepted the offer and an attendant came out to guide them there.

'Rean, are you sure you don't want to accept his offer? It's very hard to get such a thing in these greedy auction houses.'

Rean shook his head as he said.

'Better not risk sticking around for too long. Besides, the next time I put something for sale, it won't just be Middle-Level equipment, but High and Peak-Level ones.'

Frandin didn't feel too surprised by that. He didn't know much about forging, but even he could see just how easy it was for Rean to create those weapons. Obviously, Rean's level was much higher than that. Besides, he very much wanted to see Rean making them.

'Alright, forget that for now, and let's focus on the auction. Perhaps there will be something worth buying here.'
