Chapter 33: The Auction



Ezekiel accepted the friend request since he assumed having an experienced player would be very helpful.

He had trained through the game a lot but he wasnt aware of a lot of the things others had learned.

When he arrived at the auction house he asked for his registration again to add more items to his list of sold items.

He wanted to wait for the items to be auctioned but when he asked about it he was just told that the items were going to be auctioned off via the grand exchange.

The grand exchange, he learned that it was a bit like the internet for auctioning items.

Every auction house across the country was connected through this system so that buyers from any region could have access to total inventory being sold.

This benefits both seller and buyer since it was not reliant upon who was in your area.

At this moment in the celestial kingdom the player Alexander was looking through the world auction house.

Celestials were more advanced with magic than many other countries so it wasnt hard to access their "networks" to buy and sell products of their own.

He was currently checking for gear that eould be sold soon, from his memory he knew that during this day a large number of items would suddenly be sold by what seemed to be a mage since everything sold was beneficial to martial classes.

He was looking for a few of these items since many players would not have access to enough in game currency to beat the npc buyers.

In the past it was typically assumed that that npcs participated in auctions to artificially raise the price of items so players to what the game had deemed them to be worth.

At such a low level it would be very difficult to outbid the npcs on everything but he knew an excellent sword would be available as well as armor that would make his time so much easier in dungeon crawls.

He would be competing mostly with demon players and npcs for the sword but for the armor he remembered it selling for quite a low price.

When he saw the influx of items he knew it was time.

The player known as War God was scrolling through the auction house to see if she could potentially find the items that Belial had planned to sell.

Her goal was to see just how important this mage would be to her future if she got him on her side.

When the influx of items appeared she was blown away.

'No wonder he called the bronze dagger trash, he had over a dozen silver items!'

While looking through the list of items she saw one of them.

A sword that could cause fire damage.

She had beem given an affinity for the fire element as an infernal race player but she had not really explored it yet.

This sword called out to her since she felt like it would let her learn what her fire affinity actually did.

Since he was a seller Ezekiel was allowed to relax in a room where he would be waiting for his payment.

He had been told that auction houses take a ten percent commision from whatever the total was.

The handler who put the items up for auction on his behalf would be the recipient of the majority of that commission while the auction house took the rest.

The bronze gear sold quickly, starting at 10 copper coins per item and slowly increasing in value depending on what the item was.

The highest item sold from bronze gear was 1 silver coin and 7 copper but he had dozens of then so the total rose quickly.

The item that began the strongest bidding war was actually the Sword of Blazing Waves.

Since he was a seller he could see the current bidding on each item in a separate screen.

He had a dozen silver quality items that had been put up and the lowest price he saw on the bidding page for the ones he listed was 15 silver.

The sword?

It was curently at 40 silver.

He had not expected that a random sword he got would become the target of a bidding war.
