Chapter 61 – What’s the name?
The office was just a simple wooden house and hidden from plain sight .
The auction had started so no one was there .
Tang Yu walked into the house and saw a middle-aged man yawned in boredom .
“Do you want to get your item evaluated for the auction?” He raised his eyebrows, surprised . At that time, most people already had their items evaluated .
Most auction items had already been evaluated at least a day before the auction start . Even if some was late, they wouldn’t wait until the auction started .
Although he was quite surprised, he had no reason to refuse .
The rules allowed it . They could add extra items before the auction ended . That’s the only reason why he stayed in the office even though the auction had already started .
“Um…” Tang Yu pulled out a long sword .
The middle-aged man frowned, his tone was annoyed, “We are in the black market auction so that means not every items can go out to the venue . The minimum value must be at least 10 spirit stones . Don’t waste…”
Before he finished talking, he saw Tang Yu accidentally dropped the sword in his hand .
Wooosh .
The long sword fell straight . Half of the body except for its handle was submerged into the ground .
“…what?”
The middle-aged man rose up from his chair, came towards to the sword and grabbed the hilt with his hand . He pulled out the sword with a light gesture and the entire long sword was lifted up .
He carefully inspected the sword, completely ignoring Tang Yu who was standing beside him .
After some time, he looked up, “This is a really good sword!”
Tang Yu was a little bit impatient, “Can you put this sword at the auction?”
The middle-aged man unconsciously nodded several times, “Most definitely . Such a good sword will certainly fetch for a high price . ”
“If it’s all possible…” Tang Yu grabbed the backpack from his back and took out several long swords .
“(?`?Д?′)!!”
The middle-aged man was shocked .
………………
Tang Yu walked into the auction venue after he paid the deposit .
In the end, this place was an abandoned fallout shelter . There was no such a thing like VIP room . They didn’t even have a seat for VIPs . Everyone who participated in the auction had to find their own seats .
There wasn’t any other option so Tang Yu found a comfortable corner and waited for the auction to start .
Soon, a young woman entered the stage . She was the auctioneer for tonight .
Her figure was voluptuous . She wore a tight and low-necked dress, showing her ample bosom .
All eyes were immediately attracted on her .
Tang Yu also stared at her for a while until a scene of Elaine coming out from the bathroom replayed in his head .
He immediately lost interest at the seductive mistress .
One by one, the auction items were presented .
The auctioneer woman was indeed capable of stirring up the atmosphere in the auction venue .
“The next item that will auctioned is a sword . ” The woman displayed a long sword handed to her by a staff . At this time, the long sword was covered in a scabbard . The enchanting auctioneer grabbed the hilt and pulled it out from the scabbard .
The cold silver steel of the long sword flashed under the dim light of the venue .
The hunters attended the auction weren’t interested . Someone said, “Why is a long sword auctioned in the black market auction?”
“Exactly . Even the military standard war knife developed by the Academy of Sciences worth is just 2 spirit stones . Their latest invention isn’t even worth 10 spirit stones . ”
Although nobody else spoke, everyone present in the venue thought the same way . They were waiting for the auctioneer’s explanation .
Most combatant present in the room had used the military sword to fight a demonic beast . It’s indeed better than an ordinary sharp weapon . But they would rather spent their money on other weapon that would certainly deal more damage to demonic beasts than spending more than 10 spirit stones for a sharp weapon .
The enchanting woman was prepared for such a situation . She wasn’t being offended, instead, “Watch this . ”
The staff brought another weapon, she continued, “This is a military standard sword, please check carefully . ”
The staff handed the sword to the hunters who were present in front of the stage for inspection .
“I believe you check it thoroughly . It’s an ordinary combat sword, now watch this carefully . Don’t blink even just for a second or you’ll miss it . ”
The voluptuous woman held the military sword in her left hand and the long sword in her other hand . In an instant, her aura became cold .
She was a hunter with a double awakening strength . She swung hard and the long sword cut straight the military sword .
“What…”
The hunters expected something would happen, but they still couldn’t believe it .
At the next moment, the military sword fell to the ground with a loud metal clatter . The incision was clean and neat . In contrast, the long sword was still sharp without any dent .
Except for Tang Yu, everyone else’s eyes were widened with surprise .
Every hunter who had fought in the wild immediately understood what it meant to have such a weapon .
A charming smile appeared on the woman’s face . But that’s just the beginning, “Don’t worry, the black market auction have prepared a more exciting test method to test the real value of this sword . ”
Several burly men carrying a big iron cage entered the stage . After the curtain was opened, a fierce demonic beast was seen inside the cage .
The demonic beast hissed .
Some people who had never seen a demonic beast in real life was immediately startled .
No wonder the black market dared to charge 20% of the auction transaction fee . Tang Yu was a little surprised by such a generous preparation . Despite his surprise, Tang Yu was still heartbroken by the 20% loss of the transaction fee .
On the stage, the enchanting woman called an ordinary person to test the weapon .
The tester approached the iron cage while holding the long sword in his hand .
Inside the cage was a demonic beast with a double awakening strength . Even when bounded, it still managed to violently knock the iron cage .
Weak hunters were all afraid of the worst case if the beast broke free from the iron cage .
At the next moment, the tester stepped forward . He held the sword with both hands and stabbed it through the cage’s gap .
“Roar!!!”
The demonic beast roared in pain .
The hunters that were present on the venue could see that the sword was deeply penetrated into its skin .
The tester put all of his strength to push the sword harder into the beast . Blood scattered as the blade sunk deeper . After a while, the fierce demonic beast that was originally a threat to many hunters in the wilderness was lying dead inside the cage .
The viewer held their breath at the scene .
An ordinary person with a long sword could kill a terrifying double awakening demonic beast . Even if the beast was bounded in cage and couldn’t evade or resist, as hunters, they already knew what it meant .
Even if a strong ordinary human were to try to stab a demonic beast with an ordinary weapon, it wouldn’t cause any harm .
But now…
The hard and thick fur of the demonic beast was sliced like a thin paper . If the hunters couldn’t feel the aura of the demonic beast, they would probably think that it was a weak demonic beast .
But this sword penetrated the demonic beast and killed it . Then…
All hunters were began to breathe heavily .
The voluptuous woman walked back into the stage . She chuckled softly, a soft voice was coming out from her mouth, “So let’s begin the auction of the…”
She was stunned for a while because the seller of the sword didn’t provide a name for it, “Demon Slayer Sword . Starting price is 20 spirit stones!”
The voluptuous woman had no idea that her spontaneous act was the beginning of the legendary swords’ names in the future .
