Sky Fall Legend 111 The Purple Sky Secret Fair Begins 2

"I'm sorry, what now? This is possible?" Jodye Trill was dumbfounded by what he just heard, he found himself unable to understand it. To become an alchemist, the young Jupiter had been gifted with the gallbladder, viscera, and second heart of an actual true dragon. Refining this allowed him to develop his own true dragon flames in the process.

Jodye didn't have such excellent conditions or preferential treatment. He would have to depend on himself. If he could truly form his own flame...

Flame?

"That's right!" Jodye Trill's eyes brightened. He almost forgot about the Sky Fall Flame! He had been refined by its fires since an infantile age. Why wouldn't fire be in his essence?

As Jodye Trill looked down at the auction field in excitement, he immediately noticed the beautiful Bilan Moon who had come with her two guardians. This was due in large part to the wisp of divine sense he had placed on her dress a day or so back. Jodye turned to Sigma and beckoned him with his hand, "Unk, hurry, come check this out! That's her, the girl who I told you should be your half-disciple! And why aren't you wearing a mask?"

"Hmm? Why do you say I am not wearing a mask? Can the great Jupiter not see the mask on this great dog's face?" Uncle Sigma chided as he allowed his perception to be guided by this brat Jodye, and it landed on a porcelain doll-like little girl in a green dress who indeed looked similar to his disciple. Sigma's attention then shifted to the old lady in green robes next to Bilan Moon, who coincidently tilted her head up to look in their direction.

Jodye was shocked when this happened, but Sigma was far less so. He had already pegged this woman as rather formidable. Although she couldn't sense Jodye's divine class spiritual qi, Sigma's was not beyond her detection. Jodye had overlooked this possibility and thus they were discovered. The old woman was indeed formidable. At least, Sigma was not confident in defeating this woman without violating the curse's restriction on his cultivation base.

Such a thing was quite expensive in cost.

"It seems our little friend from before has arrived," said the old lady in green indifferently. However, Bilan shot her a puzzled look, as if she simply couldn't understand why this lady was speaking to herself. The older woman felt exasperated, "The negus boy, my child. Your new friend from the one from the other day, the one you won't shut up about.

"Ah! You mean young noble Trill!" Bilan Moon's eyes sparkled, as she instantly became lively and excited. This reaction was more along the lines of was the older woman was expecting. Bilan's put on her sweetest face as she asked, "Where is he martial-aunt? Can we meet with him, oh please? I wish to know what happened to that little girl."

"Oh, of course, it's the exact same brat you keep mentioning lately, do not pretend," scolded Aunt Miran, not fooled or amused by her niece's tricks, "We simply have no need to meet with someone of such low birth."

"Lady Miran, while it's true that House Moon has an excellent status in Rodinia, you are not a direct descendant of that lineage like your niece here," the old lady's words were soft yet stern, and they came in the company of a certain spiritual pressure. This woman was obviously no pushover! "Besides, we are not in Rodinia currently. Do you truly think the origins of that extraordinary youth are as humble as you claim? Do you not remember the status of the negus clans back home? The weakest of them is still a third rank clan. Do you think it would be very different here?"

Aunt Miran thought back to the youth's terrifying speed, and his infuriating parting words. Indeed, her rage had almost made her rash once again. There was no way in hell that boy was someone simple, "You are correct, Master Grey Willow. I apologize."

"Mn." Master Grey Willow turned back to Bilan and spoke gently while motioning towards the window and Sigma's private box, "The boy is above us in a V.I.P. box, so we will not likely meet him."

Bilan Moon looked up at the indicated window but just saw two masked faces staring down at her, causing her to be a bit startled. She turned to Master Grey Willow and whined, "Martial-aunty, how do you even know it's him?"

"Although his features are magnificently hidden, I don't know of any other young man who would search for you and even inform his senior, whose perception I detected," replied Master Grey Willow, seemingly amused. Her disciple was beautiful for sure, and this was a voodoo state. Nonetheless, Master Grey Willow felt her own presence was a suitable deterrent against any foreign foes probing them. Moreover, she recognized this negus boy's senior. The only thing that surprised her was the fact that this boy seemed to have ascended to the same realm as her niece. It had only been a few hours since they saw him last. This was a terrifying improvement speed. It had been less than a day, right? However, right at that moment, Master Grey Willow stiffened. Luckily, seconds later her face relaxed into a slight smile, "It seems you will get your wish after all. We have been invited up by the boy's patron."

"Uncle Sigma before they come up, there's something you both should know," Sigma and Joovee both raised a brow at Jodye's words. Jodye Trill felt rather fearless around Joovee Nile the Neofrost Master because the mage was bound by the divine law to assist Jodye should he face adversity. Plus, Jodye trusted this half-teacher Sigma with his life at any place. Jodye continued speaking while demonstrating his international spy pose, "Actually, my real name isn't Jupiter. It's Trill. Jodye Trill."

"Pfft…"

Jodye was stunned to see his companions rolling around on the floor laughing at him. He felt embarrassed and annoyed, as he shouted out, "What exactly is so funny?!"

"Kid, did you really believe we didn't know that Jupiter was a fake name? What are you the ancient heavenly king of the Titans? Get real, twerp," spat Uncle Sigma in disdain. Jodye felt funny when he heard the bit about the Titans, but he was also fuming at the moment. So it turns out T'Zhane was more popular in the upper realms then Jodye had initially considered. Sigma simply never took his name seriously from the beginning.

These jerks…

"Seriously kid, who would really believe you were named Jupiter," asked Joovee Nile nonchalantly from the side. So it turned out his name was a source of amusement to those who heard it. Jodye was now strongly considering changing his alias.

The auction started again, and the new host was surprisingly Vanessa Purple-Sky, the secret auctioneer who had helped Jodye previously. Only she wasn't introduced as Vanessa Veto, but as Vanessa Purple-Sky instead. Apparently, she had received some benefits from bringing Jodye to the manager. First, she courteously greeted and welcomed everyone, as some servants rolled the third auction item onto the stage.

After revealing what was in the box, it turned out to be Jodye's C-grade Phantom Sabers. He had almost forgotten he had put them up to be auctioned.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the first item I'll introduce to you tonight are these two dual C-grade combat gear, the Phantom Sabers!" Vanessa Purple-Sky looked very elegant in her purple robes. "These special C-grade weapons actually give an astounding 20% boost in strength! No, I'm not joking, we have verified them ourselves. I'm not going to be too long-winded, the price starts at three million silver crystal notes. Let the bidding begin!"

Three million silver? That was basically three thousand gold or three single amethyst crystal notes. In Jodye's eyes, this price wasn't much at all, it was rather small. However, this was only the starting price, and it would increase with every bid. Jodye felt that he had been too flustered in regards to his own resources. Thanks to being a bandit that robbed anyone who crossed him, Jodye was already filthy rich.

Joovee Nile had spent some time re-educating Jodye on certain financial matters once he heard the latter casually mention his wealth of origin stones. Now, Jodye knew that he had been underestimating his wealth by a large margin. Money in this world was totally more primitive then what he was accustomed too! Merely a low-grade origin stone cost about 100,000 silver crystal notes or 100 gold crystal notes. Previously, Jodye had valued these origin stones at no less than 5 million silver crystal notes.

However, he was very incorrect in this. Jodye had a total of 536 low-grade origin stones, as well as an excessive amount of wealth.

"The crystal notes are actually carved out of and refined from different grades of origin crystals. An unrefined origin ore has a bronzed color, whereas low-grade origin crystals release a silver color. Thus, the color of the notes could only follow suit. Mid-grade origin crystals are gold in color, and high-grade origin crystals are a beautiful violet-purple, just like spirit amethyst," Jodye Trill tabulated the new information in his head.

"Even for a small origin crystal of the high-grade, the value is worth 100 refined origin gems like the one Grandpa Geb had given me that year."

Due to Sigma placing a retired international criminal like Jodye Trill in charge of his Shooting Star Heavenly House's security team, Jodye had easily finessed a fortune by manipulating the various game machines with his divine energy. He had secretly earned around 10,000 amethyst crystal notes.

After realizing precisely what this wealth represented, Jodye was speechless. He had gone a bit overboard. With Jodye's 21st-century earth mentality, he subconsciously assumed that notes alone wouldn't amount to much. Jodye thought that he needed millions of the highest tier note, or he was still nothing. However, now he knew that just the amount he possessed now gave him significant capital. "From what my father told me before, there's nothing in this land that can be compared to the paper bills of modern earth. The closest thing should be these crystal notes. In fact, many people trade origin stones, gems, and crystals directly. However, who knew that crystal notes were also so valuable."

During the auction, crystal notes were predominantly what was used to bid. However, during the payment process buyers could pay using other items of value. Things such as origin stones or medicinal qi pills. Generally speaking, most people used origin stones or tablets, as notes were usually only kept by faithful consumers, as opposed to low ranking mystic artists.

For these reasons, Jodye felt his current wealth could only be defeated by Sigma, this cunning and wealthy tycoon, or someone else of the upper ranks.

Nonetheless, a C-grade combat gear that provided at 20% boost in strength was rather uncommon in the lawless deep south. Most C-grade combat gears gave a boost right around 15-17%. To mercenary groups especially, this type of weapon would be highly sought after. Let alone a set of two blades.

"3.2 million silver crystal notes!" a familiar voice entered Jodye's ears from behind, but he didn't have to turn around to know that it was that insufferable Aunt Miran. As Jodye had kept his divine awareness extended out to cover most of the tower, the entire V.I.P. box with his well within perception.

The three females had just been escorted into the private box, sitting across from Jodye and company. However, Jodye and Sigma were both still looking out the window at the ongoing auction.

Sigma and Neofrost noticed the dull look in Jodye's eyes when this lady spoke, and immediately recognized that the boy didn't like her for some reason.
