The old man whose beard still had some color to it took the crystal out of Doyle''s hand who came rushing in and screaming like an idiot...


    "This is…"


    The annoyed expression on his face started to turn into a bit of a surprised one as he started inspecting it…


    "Grand Mas-"


    Doyle, who was excited that he finally got the old man named Dan''s attention, almost started yelling again…


    "Shut up! Nothing is worth getting this excited for, though this is really… interesting."


    "I know right?! Grand Master! This is the real thing this time…"


    "You aren''t young anymore to act like this, sigh… but it''s true that this worth noting, where did you manage to get this…?"


    "It was an item that a sect invited guest has brought in to auction…"


    "Oh, it was like that after all, why are standing still then, take me there!"


    "Yes sir!"


    ''Let''s go this interesting guest then…''


    `~~`~~`~~`


    "So I take it that you are the source of this unique ''multi element'' elemental crystal?"


    "Indeed…"


    "Alright then, I will first tell you my appraisal of this crystal of yours…"


    The not so old man who that master Doyle seemed to follow like an underling had a small smile on his face as he got into business as soon as he entered the appraisal room…


    "This is just my assumption… but if I''m not wrong, I believe that this is actually a naturally formed ''Omni-Element'' crystal, the only difference is that a few elements are missing…"


    ''Oho…''


    It seemed that unlike that master Doyle, this man was indeed on a different league, not only has it not been long since he started checking the crystal as he made a quick judgement, but his mental energy was also much more refined and urate whenpared to Doyle''s…


    "Again, this is just my assumption, but it seems you have already absorbed these elements for your own practice or they were already used by the time you found this crystal… now the question is, where did you find them? If you trade that piece of info, then I''m sure you would get more than what you originally wanted just by auctioning this crystal..."


    Just as the man was already stating an outer offer, the servant who seemed to be called by the name little Three came close to him and whispered something…


    "Mhm, we can also allow you to take a look at the item list for today''s auction if that''s what you desire and even allot you a quota that you can spend at today''s auction, so what do you say… not too bad of an offer, right?"


    Me taking out such a crystal only meant that I was either stupid enough to reveal an easy way to get a fortune or that I wanted to share the info about the source of that crystal as I was unable to obtain it on my own, or that''s at least what this man had in mind, so It was obvious that this experienced appraiser wanted to take this opportunity to obtain this gold mine before anyone else…


    It was only that…


    ''He seems to be testing the me being stupid theory first…''


    "Sorry to disappoint you, but unfortunately, neither do I know the source mine of these elemental crystals, nor did I absorb certain elements of them, they were given to me by my master as allowance, so I wanted to take this timely auction as a chance to turn them into fluid funds, I only have a limited amount of them, but whether I auction them here or not depends on what down payment and base price I would get for them…"


    Whether the master part was believed or not depended on their imagination as well, but it didn''t really matter as I already had my own way to prove that it was a simple and small lucky chance of me or my imaginary master…


    "Which means, you have more…?"


    This time Doyle asked in more surprise after being silent for a while...


    "Indeed."


    "You master, would it be possible to tell us his name…?"


    "My master''s name? He has none… as far as I remember, he had always referred to himself as ''this nameless one'', it''s kind ofplicated…"


    "I see… then, how much crystals do you wish to auction…?"


    "This much…"


    Taking out a pouch containing 111 crystals, I emptied it on the table…


    "Oh! While this isn''t considered much, but it should do well in as a bundle item, let''s see, one hundred plus partly ''Omni-Element'' elemental crystals, an appropriate base price would be…"


    Seemingly epting the fact that it was a one time opportunity half heartedly and trying to make use of it as an opportunity to boost the auction house''s reputation instead of a long-term supply product, the experienced appraiser almost gave an estimation, but...


    "Grand Master Dan!"


    "What is it Doyle, did you really find it that hard to calm yourself down a bit…?"


    The half-believing expression on the appraiser who seemed to go by the name Dan started to show hits of annoyance due to Doyle''s interruption…


    "But sir! I think you need to check this one…"


    "Didn''t I already check it just now…? Are you stuck in a time loop or something?!"


    Annoyingly ncing at the crystal in Doyle''s hand, Dan was about to disregard his note as he was about to return to his price estimation, however…


    "Wait… this elemental presence… this is a grade 2 ''Omni-Element'' elemental crystal?!"


    "There isn''t the only one sir…"


    The half-believing expression already vanished from Dan''s face by this point as he started inspecting the small pile of crystal one by one…


    Putting a few grade 2 crystals was something I obviously did on purpose, as to indicate that they couldn''t be from one source, and although grade 0 and grade one crystals could be found in the same mine as grade 0 crystals were just fragments of grade 1 ones, the same thing couldn''t apply for grade 2 and 1...
