Auction ( Part 8 )

The sight of the Spirit Warding Stone ignited a spark of excitement in everyone's eyes.

However, it didn't take long for them to realize that if the stone truly possessed its rumored effects or had the potential to be repaired, it would never be sold in a public auction.

The truth dawned upon them, dampening their enthusiasm as they understood that the stone was most likely irreparable.

With this understanding, the crowd gradually settled down, accepting the fact that the broken Spirit Warding Stone was simply a relic with limited use. At most, they could probably use it as a replacement for their Sealing Methods. As for research, they weren't too inclined to do that since they don't have a long lifespan.

They don't think they could waste dozens of years conducting research for something that they do not have a use for aside from earning money.
