Alantina Online: The Greatest Sword Mage Reborn As A Weak NPC

Chapter 108 Auction Part 1

--AN) Yes the chapter is later than normal. Do I care? nope! :P Anyway, here you go!--

Miri never thought that leaving the temple to go to the capital would result in her not only leaving the church itself but also becoming someone's wife. But she was not upset about it either. When she looked at the girls around her and the way they all seemed happy, she knew her life would not be bad. There was also the system thing that Vance gave her. She began to wonder if she had become the wife of a god.

As the days passed, Alice and the other girls left early in the morning and returned at night. They were busy power leveling Cynthia and Miri. Their levels were slowly growing, and they were funneling their status points into their stats, but one thing that did not make sense was that no matter how many points Miri put into intelligence, it did not seem to cure her ability to get lost after a few steps. Alice and the girls had to hold her hand, or they were afraid they would lose her.

During this time, Vance was also busy. He was making many different kinds of armor. Switching out things as he got better at leatherworking. While he did not have the tools for cloth armor, he was able to at least supply the girls with decent uncommon armor and even a few rare pieces. He did not even make himself anything new until he had finished setting the girls up with proper gear. To hide the ugliness of it all, they began wearing skirts over their armor. When he saw this, Vance chuckled. He knew just how ugly it was. Luckily he could do the same as long as he used some baggier clothes.

As a player, you had the option for cosmetics like this, but it was not something people could afford right away. So you basically ran around in ugly armor all the way up until you could afford to buy things to cover it up.

But on this day, three days before the event. Alice came rushing through the door of their inn with a look of excitement on her face. "Vance!"

"Hmmm?" Vance turned from his table and looked at Alice. "What's up?"

"Come on. We are going to the auction house in the town center. They are holding an action tomorrow. If you sell your potions, you can make quite a bit of money! I talked to the auction house, and they said they needed to inspect the items before they could put them up for sale, but if you are willing, you can get them appraised and sell them." Alice answered as she walked over and grabbed Vance by his hand. "We need to hurry, or else they won't be able to publicize this information."

"But even then, will there be people rich enough to get a good price on these things?" Vance asked. He was a bit confused because the caution house was part of the game as well, but it was different as there were booths off to the side that players used. The rest was not accessible to players.

"Of course, there will be! Come on!" Alice was in a hurry, or Vance might miss this chance to make a killing!

But now that he was thinking about it, he was an NPC, so such things might just be possible. "Alright, let's go. But where are the others?"

"Sally, Thieving Cat, and Miri are still leveling. I have to admit Thieving Cat is a really good tank, as you called it. Nothing gets by her. Even if a monster appears on the back line, she has already seen it as if she has eyes in the back of her head and taunts it to her." Alice replied. She still liked calling Cynthia a thieving cat. Even though, technically, she was no longer stealing anything.

"That is good to hear." Vance was not surprised. After all, she was the best paladin in game.

The two left the inn after locking up their room and headed to the auction house. Vance had not been to an auction house since becoming an NPC, so he had no idea if the player portals were open or not.

The auction house was a large building with three floors and two basement floors. The first floor was the main entrance to the auction house that led to the auction floor. There was a large entry room with a reception desk where you had to go to get a token to enter the auction floor. Only by having this token could you participate in the auction. The door to the auction floor was to the right of the reception desk, which was less of a desk and more of a window.

To the left of the reception desk, there was a staircase with two guards standing there. That was where the private rooms were located. It allowed those of status and wealth to sit in a private room during the auction. If one had enough money, one could easily get such a room. On the far left wall was another door that led to the assessment room where you would go to get items assessed, but you first had to talk to the receptionist in order to go back there. That, too, was guarded by two guards.

On the far right wall, Vance saw the player auction stations. There were three in total, but no one was using any of them. This was understandable as there was no way any players at this time had things to sell. If he had not leveled as much as he did and looted all the materials and herbs along the way, he would not have had anything to make potions with.

Vance walked up to the reception counter, where a girl with puffy blue hair was chewing on something, reading a book. Without even looking up, she asked: "What can I do for you? The auction is not until tomorrow."

Vance did not mind the girl's attitude as he said: "I am here to put something up on auction. So I need it assessed."

The girl looked up slightly from her book, took a single glance at Vance, and waved her hand. "We don't put cheap things up on auction. So please leave."
