There were audible gasps and heavy breaths taken. These people were truly cruel, using this auction as a springboard to decide the pricing of their items. However, considering the quality of the items in question and the undeniable demand, many nodded in agreement. 

If the price was too low, just any dog and cat would be able to save up to buy it. That would be foolish, as even if they didn't know how such items were made, they could reason that supply would never be able to keep up with demand. 

This was the truth as well. In fact, many powers here would be left speechless if they discovered that the items that had been brought forward in the last round had all been diluted/weakened. 

The rule of thumb for Transmutation was that it enhanced an item by 5x its pinnacle quality. For those items to only be 200% better meant that Darius had cut corners in order to artificially increase supply. 

Otherwise, his 200 CP a day would not be able to support a whole industry. 

Moreover, things like the empty spell manuals and magical scrolls were cheap to make so he had no real problem with them. Even Awakening Scrolls and Spark Potions were only about 4 CP if he used close enough materials. 

However, this was greatly inefficient and Darius had stopped doing this a long time ago. What he did rather, or what he planned to do, was contract many alchemists, engineers, and the like to make these raw items as quickly as they could. 

They would then pass it to Darius who would statically transmute them for the lowest possible cost. His plan would have been infeasible if not for this nifty upgrade he had reached upon entering the Journeyman stage. 

The Intermediate ability allowed him to transmute something of the same tier and rank into itself. 

In other words, instead of having to turn a blank sheet of paper into a magical scroll, he could take a perfectly fine magical scroll and just 'perfect' it by transmuting it into what it already was. 

This was greatly different from transmuting flawed spellbooks into completed ones or turning health potions from the inferior grade to the common as he had done before, when Transmutation had still been a Basic ability. 

One was a change of either completion or grade. With Static Transmutation, you were basically just overlaying the benefits of a transmuted item onto an average item for a stupidly low cost. 

This was exactly why Darius could dare to open a city like this and advertise it to the whole world. Otherwise, he would never be able to meet even the smallest bit of demand even if he were to spend every day working on it. 

Deia gazed at the items on the table. "Some of these you all already know. There is our famous Awakening Scroll, which allows anyone, and I mean literally anyone, to awaken a mage talent that is superior to even naturally awakened users. As if that was not enough the user will have the option to choose any five elements as their starting affinity." 

"Depending on your system of power, this perfectly converts over. It doesn't matter where you exist on Faust, these scrolls are the best of the best in nurturing talents or building a force." 

Deia continued. "Then there are our Ability Potions. Well, they go by the name of Spark Potions here on Fallon, but it is better to give them a more universal name, no? They assist people in awakening a special ability of their choice, or can strengthen the innate ability of a person by 5 times its current power before they activate it." 

"So feed this to your kids while they are young, and if they are talented enough to have their own hidden ability, you can have them increase its power greatly! If they had been able to conjure small wind blades before, after ingesting our potion they would be able to summon large scythes that can cut whole trees down!" 

"However, fret not if your child or ward is not talented! They can awaken any ability they can think of within a certain range that is compatible with them. Unfortunately, you cannot give a child without the necessary genetics or affinity the ability to control reality, as that is simply not possible." 

The more Deia spoke, the more the crowd became unruly and intoxicated. Many had investigated the items that were sent out and had discovered this much, so being reminded of it and having it confirmed by the seller ignited their passion. 

As for the situation with Jorge and Derek, Darius had prepared specialized Spark Potions for them with abilities he knew would be compatible with them, so they benefited from a 500% boost as well. 

This was the difference between general Ability Potions that were being sold right now and specific Ability Potions that Darius had given to his close people that had been tailored for them. 

Deia then turned to the third item. "We have here a crucial item that any kingdom, empire, and power desires, the almighty Space Stone! It is necessary to set up a teleportation gate, experiment with or create unique contraptions utilizing the Space element." 

"A typical Space Stone has 50 uses at most, and can only power up to Intercontinental Teleportation Arrays, Single-Direction Portals, Ultra-Long Distance spells or basic two-way local portals." 

"However, ours has 500 uses and can be used for anything concerning the Space element without limit. It can be used to set up portals reaching multiple continents at once, can support multi-personal simultaneous teleportation, and most crucially, can create stable long-distance cargo passageways!" 

"In case you were not convinced yet, these are the same kinds we use for the portals you have come through." 

Deia then gazed at the fourth item. "This is something special, something that everyone on Fallon should know of, but may not have had the chance to enjoy, an Elemental Enchant! This item allows a person to imbue an item with an elemental trait!" 

"Of course, ours is vastly different. It is an Omni-Element Enchant capable of bestowing any elemental property to an item, unlike the usual enchants that are elements specific due to their color." 

Deia then turned to the final item which was locked in a glass that showed nothing of what it looked like. 

"As for our climax item... I will leave it to your imagination for now. We will reveal its identity when it is time for it to be sold!"
