The Memory Crystal

"Eight million elemental crystal stones!"

"Eight and a half million elemental crystal stones!"

"Nine million elemental crystal stones!"

In the auction, the competing bids carried on like a perpetual wave, never-ending in the ear. However, in just a short half an hour, the price had risen to nine million elemental crystal stones.

In luxury suite number twenty-eight, Wizard Darknight's eyes were bloodshot, fixed steadily upon the puppet on the podium. This puppet which was comparable to an Eighth-level Spell Caster excited him to no end.

Nevertheless, as he observed the constantly clambering, terrifying price, Wizard Darknight could only shake his head slightly. Even though he governed Eternal Night Mountain, and was counted among the relatively wealthy, he was still far behind those distinguished guests in the luxury suites.

"Lady Phillie, how many elemental crystal stones are left from the amount that we've brought today?"
