Sapphire Auction House (4)

In the normal auction house, as it was full of unidentified items, there were many duds.
Even though the associations all over the world had appraised them several times, there were cases where F-rank items would come up due to a special effect.
Of course, if you did it right, they could be transformed into powerful items, but…

[F: Late-blooming Eternal Iron]
There’s not much time left. An eternal iron that, with time, can hold a cold air even in a place without cold, and can be used to make a legendary weapon.
※ Remaining time: 587 years, 21 days
There were often cases with absurd flaws like this.
Who would buy this…
“Ah, this one! It seems like it will be great!”
…Someone is buying it.
I looked at Robert, who had pressed the instant purchase button, with a disgruntled expression.
‘Is he overflowing with money?’
What I felt while walking around with Robert for about 10 minutes was, ‘this guy has a mediocre eye’.
Especially when I confirmed the very faint starlight that was floating in his eyes like a firefly, I was even more disgruntled.
‘It’s called the Morning Star Eye.’
It’s a much lower-tier eye than Yeon Taeseon’s Starlight Eye.
It is the greatest talent that a human can awaken on their own, and yet it is an unfortunate talent that does not satisfy a Constellation’s eye.
It is certainly a rare and great talent, but since it is a much lower-tier eye than the Sun’s Eye and the Starlight Eye, it had many flaws.
For example, buying an eternal iron with about 600 years left until it blooms…
Or not feeling anything from S-rank or higher items…
So it was a mass-produced eye with a high low-point but a low high-point.
And this was the most a human could have.
I met Yeon Taeseon’s eyes.
‘Should we just leave him be?’
‘Let’s just leave him be.’
Seeing Robert, who was happy holding the flawed eternal iron, he looked like a sea squirt.
Meaning, he looked stupid.
“We’ll take that.”
I held the Law of All Changes that Robert had given me preciously and roamed the normal auction house, sweeping up the items.
Since Robert had never experienced Yeon Taeseon’s Starlight Eye or my Sun’s Eye, he must have been wondering why I was choosing items that didn’t give him any feeling.
But since he was a stranger anyway, and I had no intention of explaining, I scanned the auction house and swept up the A-rank or higher unidentified items.
For some reason, there were more good things in the normal auction than in the bidding auction.
‘Of course, the best is the Law of All Changes.’
I handed the nest filled with seven eggs to Yeon Taeseon.
When the time comes, they will hatch and become his greatest weapon.
‘Though it’ll be a bit noisy…’
In any case, since they took the form of a bird, they would be incredibly noisy even if they didn’t eat.
Endure it.
That is the weight of an EX-rank.
Anyway, since I had a sponsor, I swept up everything.

[SS: Celestial Trumpet (Sunset)]
Many wars are fought in the heavens.
There are trumpets that signal the start of a battle, but this trumpet was one that signaled the end of the day.
When countless battles were fought and it was time to rest, it was time for the healers to fly around busily.

• Healing skill +30%

• [Winged Shoes] activated
  I should give this to Seona.
  It seems she was healing with her bare hands because she couldn’t find any proper equipment.

‘But this is better than the scepter.’
It’s a pity.
The real jewel was here, but you trusted the bidding auction too much.
I snatched this item for 30 billion.

[SS: Howl of the Resentful Soul]
There was a legendary necromancer.
He finally destroyed the world!
The lives that were taken by the necromancer cried out for revenge, and they finally made the necromancer die, crushed by a curse.
But their resentful souls have not yet been appeased…

• Curse skill +50%

• Shortened lifespan with each accumulation of [Karma]

• [Whisper of the Resentful Soul] debuff granted (unable to distinguish between friend and foe)

This would be a good fit for Yoon Yul.
He’s an S-rank, so I should get him something.
A 50% increase in curse skill is a very good function.
It was an option that could only be seen in EX-rank, but the restriction was strict.
[Karma] means the pollution of the soul, and since curse-casters usually have dirty souls, it was obvious that they would die a violent death as soon as they grabbed this staff.
But Yoon Yul is clean.
He was a very suitable talent to use this item.
The debuff skill… I trust he’ll use it well on his own.

[C(SS): The Queen’s Sewing Kit]
There was a queen who was trapped in a spire.
The lonely queen made countless dolls with her one remaining sewing kit and an infinite cloth.
Eventually, the kingdom was destroyed and an ice age came, and not even a single person remained, and even the queen froze to death, but the dolls she left behind broke through the cold and established a kingdom of cloth and cotton.

• Puppeteer exclusive

• Performance of created doll-type items +200%

• Can designate a created doll-type item as a [Hero] (0/3)

[C(SS): Infinite Cloth]
An eternal cloth.
It is soft and sturdy, but it cannot be cut, and a needle cannot go through it.
The one who can handle this cloth will build a nation.

• Puppeteer exclusive

• [Consumable Eternity] applied

I even picked up an SS-rank that was cleverly hidden as a C-rank.
Robert coveted this, but no way.
Since his guild probably didn’t even have a puppeteer, I snatched it.
Even if it looks like junk, it will be transformed into a more powerful doll than anything else in Seoah’s hands.
The infinite cloth, which was a set with the sewing kit, was especially good, and the consumable eternity was the best.
To put it roughly, it would be something like ‘consumable items do not decrease’.
It was an item with an infinite stock.
Of course, besides these four, I swept up various others.

[A: Sturdy Shield]
[A: Hydrangea Rapier]
[S: Calculation Circuit Orb]
[S: Consumable Fatigue]
[A: Sloth’s Survival Instinct]
And so, I went through the entire normal auction house and swept up all the good things.
Other than these, they were all B-rank or lower items.
The A-ranks were coveted by Robert, but what could he do.
This guy’s dinner appointment with me was held hostage.
Of course, even after being fleeced for so much money, Robert’s complexion did not change.
The guy, who realized that my shopping was over, smiled brightly and said.
“Then now, for dinner…!”
“Let’s go to the bidding auction.”
“Let’s.”
Yeon Taeseon picked up Robert and headed for the place where the bidding auction, which was scheduled to start soon, was being held.
I followed him.
The number one hunter in America, who had suddenly been turned into a piece of luggage, was flustered, but what could he do.
Since his complexion didn’t change even after sweeping up the normal auction items, I had no choice but to sweep up the bidding auction.
“W-wait. The bidding auction is difficult even for me!”
“You’re not having dinner with me?”
“Kuhk, you…!”
Robert said something about the bidding auction, the guild’s something, public funds something, embezzlement something, but I didn’t even listen.
Then he shouldn’t have fallen for me.
I deliberately smiled prettily at Robert.
The guy, who was staring at me blankly, had his face turn red.
Suddenly, I felt a deep gaze and lifted my head to see that Yeon Taeseon was also looking at me.
“Why?”
“Nothing.”
Nothing, my ass.
I can see your ears turning red.
So I decided to play a prank.
Because teasing a Regressor is very fun.
“You have to take good care of the eggs.”
“The Law of All Changes, you mean? Why that…”
“If they’re born, they’re our kids.”
Yeon Taeseon became stupid.
“Seven at once, you have a lot of stamina?”
That was the final blow.
Yeon Taeseon sank while holding Robert.
Meaning, he fell to the floor.
“Aaaak! What is this? What is it? Get up!”
Since it was in the middle of the hallway leading to the bidding auction house, and Robert was with him, gazes were drawn, but Yeon Taeseon didn’t seem to have the capacity to care about the people around him or anything.
I could see him trembling, his fingertips turning bright red, so instead of Yeon Taeseon, I showed the ticket to the guard and was guided to our seat.
“Box 4…”
The staff member kept glancing at Yeon Taeseon, but it was none of my business.
Maybe because of the shopping, I felt very refreshed!

Yeon Taeseon thought.
His Constellation was crazy.
Even when she first made a dinner appointment with Robert, he just frowned and didn’t feel the need to stop her.
Because it was obvious that she was planning to use Robert as a sponsor and sweep up all the items.
Of course, it was surprising that she had managed to wrap ‘that’ Robert around her finger and use him as a sponsor, but…
That wasn’t the important thing.
‘Don’t play with people’s feelings…!’
What can you do.
It’s the fault of the one who fell in love.
Yeon Taeseon punched the floor to release his frustration and got up.
Robert was wailing, but he didn’t care.
Ever since he found out that it was Lee Seonbaek’s previous life, ‘Seonibaek Lin’, who had saved his life before the regression, he couldn’t help but be infinitely weak to her.
Isn’t it natural for a life’s benefactor?
But every time she teased him like that, he felt like his heart wouldn’t be able to take it.
It was a pounding that he wouldn’t get used to even if he regressed one more time.
