Auction

FlamingMouse got out of the dungeon along with a lot of her guild members. This was a successful dungeon clear.

Although some other guild had already taken the 'First Clear' reward, she was still satisfied with the results.

'Ice Wolf Dungeon' was a level 160 dungeon with a maximum capacity of 20 Players each.

It had many ice wolves ranging from level 150 to 160. The Boss of the dungeon was the 'Level 175 - Ice Direwolf' that needed all 20 players to beat.

FlamingMouse was one of the strongest players in 'The Anarchists' guild and was the one responsible for leading this dungeon clear.

"I'm exhausted. I will see you guys later." She said.

"Alright Leader."

"I need to log out too."

"See you later leader."

She walked to a safe distance and opened her profile

She had leveled up once today. It would take her maybe another 2 days to get to level 170. Leveling had up gotten slower once she reached level 100.

Satisfied with her status page, she logged out.

She got out of her capsule and checked the time. It was almost 6 o'clock in the evening. It was about time to eat dinner.

She freshened up and went downstairs. She could hear noises from the living room. Seems people were already there.

"What are you guys watching?" she asked.

"Hey Mikaela, you finally woke up. You sleep quite a bit." Adler said.

"I was playing the game, not sleeping, uncle. Were you still playing while we had lunch? When did you come out here?." She asked.

"Oh, I have been out here since noon. As for the game, I logged out around 3 AM last night I think" he said.

"You know you can sleep in the capsule right? Besides, you can play while you are sleeping. The game works that way." She said.

"Yeah, I just found out that today. I will try to play while sleeping tonight." Adler said. "By the way, what level are you? Michael says he is only level 70, even though he played since the first day." He said.

"I'm over 130. Michael doesn't like playing actively, so he chose an Alchemist class. If he had a non-production class, he would have been over level 100 by now." Mikaela said as she looked at Michael who was quietly looking at the Hovi.

"Honestly Michael, Join our guild. You will level up much faster. My buddies will give you as many resources as needed. Leave that stupid 'Alchemist Guild'."

"I will think about it," Michael replied.

"By the way, how does one make videos of their hunting inside the game? I saw many people uploading such videos." He asked.

"There is an option to record in the settings uncle," Michael replied. "Your recordings will get saved in the capsule, and you can later upload it."

"You should worry about getting your class first uncle. You can worry about recording later." Mikaela said assuming he was still classless.

Adler snickered a little but decided to keep quiet about his class.

Agnes got home a little after that and they all had dinner. Around 10 PM, Adler returned to his room and entered the game.

Obcisor appeared outside of the 'Church of Radiance', exactly where he had previously logged out. He went to a nearby food store to buy some food.

He paid the shopkeeper and walked towards the north gate.

'Red said there was a goblin hunting ground outside of the north gate.' He thought as he walked.

But first, He needed to prepare himself before fighting the goblins.

He quickly took out his [Wolf's Armor]. He was once really excited to use this equipment once he reached level 10, but now it seemed so useless.

Still, the skill on it wasn't bad. And it gave quite a bit of DEF and VIT.

'Oh! how could I forget?'

He then remembered that ???? item he got from killing the Elite Slime. He was so caught up with the fact that he got a Mythical Class that he had completely forgotten about the item.

He opened his inventory and checked. Its name was now clearly visible and no longer hidden behind the ?????.

'Sh*t. An item with class restriction?' this was the first time he had seen one on an item. This was a good item. Shame he couldn't use it.

Obcisor thought for a bit. Since he couldn't use it even if he was level 50, due to the class restriction. His only choice was to sell it.

And there was no better place to sell something than the Market.

Obcisor had never used the auction mechanics in the game, but he had learned what to do to auction an item.

Clicking on the item's name in its description panel brought up 3 options. Equip, Sell and Discard. Obcisor clicked on the sell option and it leads him to the market. From there it was his choice to just sell the item, or auction it.

He didn't know how much this sort of item sold for, so he decided to auction it.

He could've just opened the market page through the settings, but this was an easier method if one wanted to sell something.

He thought for a while and put 2000 Gold Coins as the minimum bid. He set the auction to close in 1 day and hit 'Auction'.

The item disappeared from his inventory. After the set time, he would get the gold the item sold for, or get the item back if it was unable to sell.

Once everything was ready, he went towards the goblin hunting ground.

Somewhere in the game,

A man was bored. He randomly decided to check the auction.

The items sold in the in-game auction were never good. If one really wanted to get good items, one had to check the auction site that the developers opened that used real money.

Still, he wanted to try his luck. There was nothing good on the front page. Most of the items were common rank equipment that a dungeon normally dropped and people tended to get multiple of those through their numerous runs.

He sorted the items being auctioned by 'Rarity'. He wasn't expecting to find anything good but suddenly, something caught his eyes.

At the top of the list was an item with a 'Unique' rarity. The man started a bit.

A unique item was being sold? For gold? He couldn't believe it.

He quickly opened the item to check the descriptions.

What he saw inside shocked him. Someone was selling such a good item in the in-game auction? Was this person an idiot?

When one sold an item in the in-game auction, the owner would get 90% of the gold and the game would keep 10% as charge. When the owner then decided to convert his gold to dollars, the developers would take a 10% charge there too.

So, unless one didn't care about converting the gold, one didn't usually sell items in the in-game auction. But this man was selling a 'Unique' rarity item, which was sure to earn him a lot of gold, here?

If he wasn't stupid, then who was?

He quickly checked the price and bids on the items, and he was shocked once more.

Minimum bid: 2000

Current Highest Bid: None

Time remaining: 23 hours 59 minutes 12 seconds

Owner: Info Hidden>

'2000 Gold? So cheap. Is this a newbie who is selling this item? But that can't be. This item must have come from at least a Level 40 Dungeon' the man thought to himself.

He thought that the person selling this item had an SSS-Rank passive [Stupidity] skill in real life.

He quickly bid on the item.
