The Endless System
Ch 153 — Auction

Tohrei, Ikumi, and Urashia went into the Recalist Kingdom. Ikumi and Urashia have not been told by Tohrei about the destination here. Therefore, Ikumi took the initiative to ask.

“Master! I forgot to ask this ... What's our purpose here?” ask Ikumi who is pulling their car.

Tohrei was currently in the coachman's seat with Urashia. While Ikumi was in wolf mode, pulling the carriage because they had no horses.

“Destination yes? For now we have to go to the auction. Since we are now pretending to be traders, I think it is the right time to trade goods from Dezalene Kingdom,” Tohrei replied while stroking his chin.

Tohrei had already been told by the system where the auction should go. So, the direction of his goal was clear, he only needed to go to the location of the auction.

They stopped their carriage near a large building that looked rather crowded. On top of the building was a sign that read "LostSteel” Trade House.

This trading house was a place where the system directed him to go. The large number of people passing by here seemed to be due to the auction going on.

Since this was the kingdom of the dwarves, of course the majority of the people here were short-bodied. That made Tohrei, who was a human, the center of attention when they got off the train.

Urashia and Tohrei walked into the LostSteel Trading House. Meanwhile, Ikumi will keep their car in its wolf form. Ikumi's big form as a wolf should have been enough to make people not have the courage to steal things from their carriage.

“A human and Demi-Human?” The dwarves that were around were whispering, their attention drawn to a demi-human and masked man.

Although trading from outside the kingdom has been known to many people here, but they rarely see outside traders who come here.

Tohrei and Urashia entered the merchant house and immediately walked towards the receptionist or the service department. Unlike the service desk in general, the servant table in this trading house is a middle-aged male dwarf who certainly has a bushy beard.

“Hm? A guest from outside? Very rarely, what do you want here?” he asked by raising one eyebrow, watching Urashia and Tohrei.

“What here is being held an auction?” ask Tohrei without further ado.

“Auction? That is what this trading house does once a week. Coincidentally, tomorrow is the auction day.” The dwarf explained it to Tohrei.

The dwarf suspected that the two people in front of him were merchants who wanted to auction off their goods.

“Oh good if so, I want to auction my items as well as participate in the auction as a customer,” Tohrei told the dwarf.

Tohrei immediately took out a number of items after delivering his goal. The objects he took out were a card game box and two chess sets.

This kind of game has never existed in this world so it would be very profitable if Tohrei became the first to make it here.

“Hm? What is this thing? Is this something you want to auction?” The dwarf raised an eyebrow again, feeling completely foreign to the object that Tohrei presented.

“Yes! You'll know how interesting this thing is when I explain it! The nobles will definitely be interested in this kind of thing!” reply Tohrei before explaining how the two games he offers work.

Tohrei also explained about the material of making the game. Most parts of the game were made with rare rock material. Who is the noble who is not interested in rare rocks? Moreover, those nobles are dwarves who are certainly interested in rocks.

“Hoho, that is indeed very interesting! What if we auction it off at an initial price of 1500 Gold Coins per item?” bargain the dwarf.

Hearing the offer, Tohrei lowered the corner of his lips, feeling dissatisfied. It was a made-up face to convince the dwarf.

“Uh ... what is too little?” With a hint of cold sweat, the dwarf asked. He knew that this would be a good trade deal. However, if he failed to convince the masked human in front of him, then this would naturally be a pity.

“Do you think?” Tohrei's remark prompted the dwarf to reassess the items.

The dwarf began to think about the price of these items in the future. It was possible that an item like this would soar in price in the market, it was better to sell it at an expensive price now rather than regret it later.

As the dwarf was still busy thinking, Tohrei suddenly offered a high price. That made the dwarf surprised.

“2500 gold coins, no less than that!” tohrei.

“Hm—?! Huh?!” The Dwarf was surprised that Tohrei raised the price by 100 coins, feeling Tohrei's offer was excessive.

“What are those 2500 gold coins worth so much? He looks very surprised.” Urashia who was at the side quietly whispered to Tohrei.

Urashia does not know the money system in this world so 2500 gold coins do not look so valuable.

“Just imagine, 100 barrels of honey the price is 10 gold coins, then if in total 2500 gold coins, you can get 25000 barrel full of honey,” explained Tohrei in a whisper.

“What?! Du... twenty-five what is it?!” Urashia opened her mouth, asking back to Tohrei.

“25000 barrel honey.” Tohrei repeated.

“It's crazy!” Urashia who is a honey lover was surprised by it.

“Iya yes I know it's crazy.” Actually Tohrei felt ordinary with that amount because with skill creation he could duplicate it as much as anything.

Tohrei carried out this transaction to raise the value of goods originating from Dezalene Kingdom. This game will be labeled as a typical game from Dezalene Kingdom so they will know where to go if they want to buy this game. Plus this game can not be duplicated because he made it complicated.

“Alright! I agree! Let's appreciate 2500 gold coins as you wish. But, as the trading house of this auction, we will take 10% of the sale proceeds, how?” The dwarf has made the final decision.

“OK, then agree!” The two of them shook hands, agreeing on this.
