Abe the Wizard

Chapter 307 Master Abel’s Big Sword

“Everyone, I will now introduce the piece Lady Carrie brought to the auction!” Lord Jude held the long sword in his hand and proceeded to say, “this is a knight sword made by humans!”

As Lord Jude’s words landed, discussion began to arise among the audience. No one would expect Lady Carrie to bring a Knight sword for auction. These swords were not suitable for normal elves; only the ones with extraordinary strength could swing it around.

Prince Adolf knew things were not this simple. Lady Carrie was not stupid. A human knight sword could not even be compared to the early works of Master Leon. All Prince Adolf wanted was to make Lady Carrie lose face in this little auction in front of the young elites of the 2 cities, as well as showing off the wealth of Begro City.

On the other hand, Lord Jude had an extremely deep understanding of weapons and different equipment due to his family’s history. His ability was definitely on par with those authenticators in big auction stands. Therefore, even though he was just handed this big sword, he was confident he could identify it very quickly.

“Looking at the patterns on the body of this sword, this is also an ice magic sword. There aren’t many Masters who can make an ice magic sword, and every one of them will have a signature marking. Normally this marking will be etched on to the handle.” Lord Jude explained as he held the handle up to his eye.

“This is strange; there isn’t any marking on this sword. Who’s master’s work could it be?” Lord Jude felt a little stupid as he kept looking. Afterward, he helplessly gazed at Lady Carrie for support. Since she is the one who gave him this sword, she definitely knows where it came from.

“You had already eliminated all the masters, can’t you just guess the result already?” The cold voice of Lady Carrie emerged.

After hearing there might be a chance this was the work of Master Abel, the buzz suddenly intensified in the hall. Master Abel also had the nickname of the most potential Grand Master Blacksmith, and this was testified by the Dwarfs’ master. Since there wasn’t much work of Master Abel out there, everyone was sold with an astronomical price. Those lucky ones who got the chance to buy one of his works would definitely hide them away immediately anyway, so that made Master Abel’s work even rarer.

“Looking at the sword handle, this beautiful embroidery gracefully covers the socket of the gem without a single effort. The body of the sword is also gorgeous; I can feel waves of chill without even igniting the magic effect.

As Lord Jude was admiring this sword as he explained, the elves downstage was getting a bit irritated. There were countless rumors in regards to Master Abel’s work; no one had time to hear him list out all of them.

“Let the auction begin!”

“Stop wasting time, Lord Jude!”

“Can you wait a bit? I’m calling my servant to bring in the gold coins!”

A sudden uproar arose in the hall, and Lord Jude realized he could no longer keep enjoying himself. He put down his magic sword in disappointment. If he wasn’t the auctioneer, he would definitely bid this sword until he could take it home.

“Master Abel’s Ice Magic Sword. The floor price is 50,000 gold coins!” Lord Jude knew the early price of Master Abel’s weapon in the human world, so he chose it as the floor price.

“80,000 gold coins!”

The first bit had already exceeded the price of Prince Adolf’s Master Leon’s magic sword. By this point, even though there was still a smile on Prince Adolf’s face, his eyes had grown cold.

“Ninety thousand!”

“Hundred thousand!”

.....

As the price shot straight up, Abel realized his magic sword had already reached 150,000 gold coins. This had totally exceeded the actual price of the sword. This price was enough to buy an entire set of equipment from him.

Abel did not think his magic weapons would become a type of hunger marketing. Although it wasn’t his intention, even since the human wizards started going after him, the value of his magic weapons shot up like nothing else.

Normally, there were a few factors when it came to defying the value of a magic weapon. One was the effect of use. After countless battles, the user realized Abel’s magic weapon was much better than the other ones.

The second was the quantity. There was wasting many magic weapons by Abel in the first place anyway. Especially after he entered the magic tower, and now that he left the human world. Every one of Abel’s pieces was extremely rare.

The third was the name. As the most potential Grand Master Blacksmith in the entire Holy Continent, the youngest Blacksmith, as well as a wizard, his name was well known within every household. Especially after whipping out an entire Duchy’s magic tower to revenge his family, he had also become the legendary Master.

All of these had made humans, elves, and even dwarves, go crazy for his weapons, and the price today just reflected that.

In the end, this Ice Magic sword was obtained by a rarely seen buff build elf. He took the sword from Lord Jude and excitedly waved it a few times. He then tested out the ice magic by lightly tapping the sword on a table. All of a sudden, a wave of chill filled the atmosphere.

“This really is a fabulous sword!” said that buff elf with a laugh as he put the sword away.

Prince Adolf had lost the first round of the auction. Although most of the elves there were youngsters and didn’t know the hidden tension between the 2 cities, the ones who were slightly in the known had already deducted some points from Prince Adolf in their hearts.

“The third auction piece was provided by Prince Adolf. It is a longbow made by the elven bow making master, Master Amabel!” Lord Jude called as he waved his hand towards a servant to place the bow on the table.

The elves had a long history of using the bow. It was a favorite weapon among elves, and most of them were quite good at using it.

“Prince Adolf had really gone too far!” Derek whispered in anger again.

“Is the 4th piece sent by the Grand Ducal Palace also a bow?” Abel asked gently.

“Yes Lord Bennett, it is also a bow made by Master Amabel. However, the one he has is a short bow,” Said Derek helplessly. He was the one who sent the pieces for auction, but he never expected Prince Adolf to target their pieces by putting out one that was a level above.

Of course, Abel knew that a Longbow was superior to a short bow in bow distance and power. Therefore to those bow loving elves, of course, they would prefer a longbow.

By that point, Lady Carrie looked upon Abel again, but Abel pretended like he didn’t see her and looked towards another direction.

Of course, Abel had bows that were far superior to the ones made by that so-called bow making master. But, the technique in his bow was way too futuristic. There’s no way he would take it out for auction, so he could only send Lady Carrie this message by ignoring her.

At this end, this bow made by bow making Master Amabel was sold for 30,000 gold coins. This bow wasn’t a magic weapon, it was just a longbow made by some master. Therefore, all of this just showed how much elves loved bows.

The next auction piece was a short bow also by Master Amabel, so you can just imagine why those elves downstage would be less interested. Now, some of the smarter ones realized why Lady Carrie would change a weapon in the first round.

There was no way anyone would put out fake bidding in this kind of auction. All the elves downstage were the young elites of both cities. Therefore if either Prince Adolf or Lady Carrie had done something like this, they would lose even more face than losing this little auction.
