Oliver nodded with a wry smile. "My thoughts exactly. However, I can still say that the price I bought it was below the true value of the item."
Everyone shared a laugh at that before Darius resumed his appraisal. He pointed to the fourth item, which was the assassin's cowl. "This is the Shadowrider's Cowl. It has the ability to grant the user invisibility in shadowed areas, but when worn during the day, it would attract dark monsters to attack the user."
Olive frowned again. "Yes, we've tested it and found out about both functions. Luckily, the summoned monsters are weak, usually one stage below the wearer of the cowl."
Seeing as Darius was right once more, even Oliver was starting to believe in the prowess of his ability. As there was one more item left, he held back his awe and wanted to see if Darius was truly correct.
Darius gestured to the fifth item, the blue-black potion. "This is a Potion of Dangerous Berserk. It grants the user the ability to surpass their limits, increasing strength, endurance, and speed by 70% of their values."
"Unlike other berserk potions, this one allows the user to maintain perfect cognitive functions, however, the drawback is that once the berserk duration ends after 10 minutes, the user will end up being severely weakened for 3 days at the minimum."
Oliver clapped and nodded with an appreciative smile. "Very correct, Master Darius! This item is a new creation of our in-house alchemists, and I dare say your appraisal was even more accurate than what the Alchemist himself told us. It's closer to what we've discovered after extensive field testing!"
Once the crowd saw that Darius had correctly appraised all the items that were meant to test the veracity of his claims, they became excited, no less than when they went up to Kubrick.
With warmth in their tones and amiability in their body language, they chatted with Darius praising him for his great achievements despite his age. Darius spoke to each and every one of them in an extremely friendly manner, reciprocating their approachability.
Kubrick continued to stroke his beard. The more he looked at Darius, the more satisfied he became. If this was the next generation of the Andrato Kingdom, then he could one day retire once Darius had matured.
After all, it was a bit too much to expect him to spend all his life protecting this fledgling kingdom when the one he was loyal to had long since passed away. He too wanted to go out, explore other continents, especially Houto or Pan, and expand his horizons.
Oliver squeezed into the crowd that was happily discussing various topics and increasing their favorability with one another with a slightly sleazy smile.
"So Master Darius, I believe you wanted to tell us about the five unknown items for free?"
The others became quiet and the interest on their faces was clearly visible, yet they couldn't help but curse Oliver for his shamelessness.
Did he need glasses? Couldn't he see that they were chatting him up? How dare he interrupt them for his purpose, thereby ruining their own purposes?
As for Darius, he gazed at Oliver with amusement. "Indeed I did and I am a man of my word. Let me recite the usage of the remaining items since I already know."
He pointed at the sixth item, the damaged scroll that looked rat-bitten. "That is a contract with Demon Lord Dantalian, allowing the wielder to borrow his strength for 1 hour."
It was a simple explanation, but it made the hearts of all those here beat ferociously. Demon Lord Dantalian might not be the mightiest of Demons, but a Demon Lord was far above all others and below none in Armadon.
Only the Seven Deadly Sins were equal to the Demon Lord, though the former represented the Devil Faction. To have an actual Demon Lord fight on your behalf for one hour meant that even Grandmasters would have to flee.
After all, Gods and Demons/Devils of the higher Ranks existed in the stage between Grandmaster and Supreme. With it, Oliver or whoever he theoretically sold it to, would be able to raze an entire kingdom if he so wished.
The others in the room suddenly showed intense greed and desire for the scroll. Something that had looked completely wretched in their eyes just a moment ago now looked like a golden item.
Oliver smiled obsequiously but did not back down, and the guards in the room stood at attention. Darius just looked on with a playful smile, as he had purposely left something out.
Yes, one could summon Demon Lord Dantalian, but not to fight on their behalf. Well, not just anyone, but the one who had specifically signed the contract with the fellow, a person named Franz Alcoheim.
In the small print which had been mysteriously chewed away, Darius's Analyze revealed that a clause had existed, where, should anyone other than Franz attempt to use this contract, Dantalian had the right to take away their soul and refuse to do anything.
For such an important sub-clause to be specifically chewed away, hehe. This was exactly why one shouldn't touch the belongings of Demons or Devils without knowing exactly what it meant or what one was doing.
In truth, this was one of the reasons Darius had abstained from using the Dagger of Death. An item made by Hephaestus and given to a whole Asmodeus. As the incarnation of Deadly Sin of Lust, Darius would be mad to use his item without being sure.
Darius pointed to the seventh item, the sticky fruit similar to a pineapple. "That is a Fruit of the Space Tree. Anyone who eats it or drinks a potion made from it would 'spark' with the ability to freely teleport short distances as their ability."
The greed that had subsided rose once more as Oliver sincerely regretted having this done in the open. He should have taken Darius to a backroom after letting these fellows network, but his fear that Darius might ignore his words forced him to use the others as a shield to make Darius obey his promise.
Now, he was the one suffering for it.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
