'Moon crystal earrings
Enhances the five major senses to better understand the environment. Opens the path to developing spiritual sense.'
Spiritual sense? Walker had heard this before when speaking to those involved with the church. Often those who had light affinity and skills involving healing would speak of spiritual senses. Walker was curious if studying spiritual sense would increase his healing and buffing skills.
The basic enhancement of the five sense alone was something that could help him remain vigilant while in any situation. Unit to mention as a leader his decisions could hold his party members lives. It may not have been a flashy piece of equipment but it could enhance walkers decision making ability and potentially other skills in the future. It was time for him to bid on it.
"Number 27 four hundred gold"
Walker held back a little this time knowing some guests would be anxious to bid.
"Number two four fifty!"
"Number one five hundred"
The fighting had escalated and soon the price hit six hundred gold. It seemed guests were bidding not for the item but to show force.
"Number six six fifty gold"
Walker had waited to see the bids slow down to make his move.
"Once...twice...number seven for six seventy five"
Someone had tried to jump in last second. The man holding seven was Markus raven. He looked much too happy to be pushing the price higher on the party. This was his small revenge for the embarrassment in front of the king. Walker wasn't ready to let him win.
"Number six seven hundred gold."
"Number seven seven twenty five"
"Number six seven fifty!"
This looked to be the moment Markus raven was smiling with glee at how much higher he had pushed the price. He didn't know that the party had just gained three thousand gold and no longer were in dire need for gold. Not to mention there were still times to be sold.

"Once...twice...three times sold for seven hundred and fifty gold to number six congratulations!"
Walker had spent more than he wanted but had pulled it off. He passed a relieved look at the others who were a bit confused and worried. They did not expect Markus raven to challenge them let alone walker to answer. This item must have significant value to walker. Gil in particular took not of how useful it would be while hunting to have improved senses and based his understanding from that. It seemed expensive but he believed walker would make it priceless.
"Our next item is extremely valuable and rare. These aged berry wine were pried from the depths of the encumbrance ruins. They have been through an aging process of nearly two hundred and fifty years. The quality was even a challenge for our appraiser. If you enjoy quality this is your item tonight! We will be auctioning eight bottles individually. Each will be starting at an even one thousand gold! Let the bidding begin!"
Not a single person bid immediately. One thousand gold for a bottle of wine? Aged for two hundred and fifty years? Each bottle would be over that age just to reach a proper aging process. The high society nobles in the room knew that this was an extremely high quality wine. Only the most elite would be able to afford and share this.
The tamers were not interested in this whatsoever and were visibly bored. However most of those in the front rows were looking to their aids. It was a calm before a storm, the first person bid and on came the storm.
"Number seven one thousand"
"Number two one one hundred"
"Number nine one two hundred"
The bids came in to a flurry soon racking up to a full two thousand! More than half those that started bidding in the first rush had bowed out in the first bottle. There were seven left and the party couldn't even imagine what would happen with those.

"Number seven two thousand two hundred gold"
Walker saw an opportunity and decided to gamble.
"Number six two thousand three hundred gold"
Markus raven immediately shot death glares at walker. In his anger he immediately responded.
"Number seven two thousand four hundred gold."
With that little jab at Markus raven walker didn't bid again. He simply pushed the price up an extra hundred to make a point. Markus knew this and instead of a happy face he showed an ugly rage as he was announced the winner. One hundred gold was nothing to him but it was the principal.
Walker didn't dare to push the price up again after the first bottle. Markus raven had been aggravated and now threw bids at every bottle. This act alone won him two more bottles but also drove up the price for everyone else. Walkers one gamble greatly paid off in raising the price of every single bottle. This gave them a grand total of twenty two thousand gold for the eight bottle combined. They were officially rich!
Remey and Gil had done the math in their heads and had begun sweating. How could such a sum of money even be possible? They never imagined that one day they could swim in gold if they were wanting. Su naturally was more resolved and silently freaking out while maintaining her poker face. Walker was all smiles. He felt accomplished from their first auction.
While they calmed themselves and accepted the large sum of money they were to be paid the auction continued. Some paintings and other art pieces sold along with some weapons and armor that walker found unimportant. However the woman presented a package of ten light crystals causing onyx to stir on walkers shoulder. These may be the next things he needed to bid on. Since abyssal serpents consumed light it would make sense onyx wanted the light crystals. Light crystals were basically concentrated light element. These could easily assist in breaking through to his growth phase. If so walker might just need to put in more muscle so he could keep onyx in his shoulder.
