Simon was actually not expecting to find anything that would be of use to him in the auction, but the next item proved him wrong.
(Few minutes prior)
"Our next item is somewhat special."
The elderly Frostborn auctioneer smiled faintly as he spoke, and though his tone remained calm and professional like before, Simon still noticed the subtle change in the atmosphere of the auction hall.
It was not one of excitement and not of greed either, but of curiosity.
That was what spread through the hall this time.
Two demonesses walked onto the stage while carrying a dark silver box together. The box itself was not large, yet both demonesses carried it carefully like they were afraid of dropping it.
The moment Simon saw the runes engraved across the surface of the box, his eyes narrowed slightly.
'Preservation runes. What could be inside?'
