Chapter 369 The Value of Fear Anise
‘Oh? So that’s it?’ Vicente narrowed his eyes as he focused on the plant with its particularly unusual purple and black leaves.
‘This is Fear Anise. It’s a medicinal plant with solid negativity and its pure negative elements. Any Dark Path magician who consumes it or its derivatives will experience various benefits, from mana purification to an increase in power.
When a magician absorbs a resource of the same elemental affinity as their own, they would naturally experience some enhancements. For example, if the master bought this plant, you could increase the quality of your first pentagram of your second Magic Gem, improve your reflexes and senses, and also your resistance to this second magical form. .
Today, your body is not ready to use the full power of the Throne of Darkness, master. You can prepare it by strengthening yourself by cultivating your first magical form or using resources directly related to your second magical form.
The second option would definitely be faster for you to be able to use this supreme power without being severely exhausted after use.’
In short, magical powers were associated with elements, and the more a magician worked on their elemental affinity or resistance, the better their overall abilities would improve.
In Vicente’s case, if he consumed something related to the elements Lightning and Earth right now, his first two pentagrams of his first magical form would improve in quality and approach their following grades. For example, his ability to affect the metallic parts of living bodies would develop, and he would be able to do so more clearly. His range would increase, and even his mana would develop a bit, bringing him closer to the 3rd stage.
These were just the basics, but everything would change with a magician who improved their quality, which could even increase their life expectancy.
That’s why such resources were so valuable, capable of moving a Dark Path magician to a city dominated by Light Path magicians!
‘Oh? The way you’re talking, it sounds like you want me to compete with that person, old Torne.’ Vicente commented.
‘Not at all. I’m just pointing out the value of this item to the master. Finding such resources could help you a lot.
But that’s not the case with Fear Anise. Unfortunately, this woman is here, and it’s best if the master doesn’t get involved with her. Just remember what I’ve said, and if you can get your hands on similar items in the future, fine.’ Torne replied.
‘Okay.’
‘But as long as the master follows through with the Cataclysm Order locations I have in mind, you’ll already have several resources similar to or better than this one up for auction.’ Torne added.
‘We will see it in the future.’
While the two were chatting, the auctioneer announced the starting price for Fear Anise as 500 gold coins, with a minimum bid increase of 10 coins.
As soon as the bidding started, a few ignorant people bid for this rare medicinal plant in this part of the continent. Still, as soon as Miss Death’s representative made her bid, practically all the bidders gave up on the item.
“700 gold coins.” She said.
Several people in the VIP lounges and the common area of the theater felt a shiver run down their spines.
Even without using her mana to overwhelm her opponents, her natural aura was enough to scare almost everyone there.
‘That woman…’ Joshua looked at the VIP room where this person was, realizing the auction participants were being oppressed by her, but she had done nothing but talk.
Her voice alone was enough to scare almost everyone at the event!
‘So it was for this.’ Livia thought to herself as she watched this person, feeling this woman was even worse than she looked.
‘I hope she doesn’t enter the competition for my resources of interest.’ Viscount Symons also looked at this woman, aware he would have problems with such a person if she had the motivation to compete against him.
Fortunately, he had no interest in Fear Anise!
But that wasn’t the case for the members of the local Awakening Temple.
‘That damned Dark Path magician!’ Assistant Temple Master Sim clenched his fists but didn’t give up on Fear Anise.
“730 coins!” He raised his voice, drawing the attention of everyone at the auction.
But when they saw who he was, they understood why he dared to compete with this woman.
He was a member of the Congregation of Revelation. Who would have the courage to do anything with him?
That woman was frightening. But could she bother the biggest organization on the continent? If someone took action against the members of the local temple after they bought an item with an affinity to negative elements, it would be evident where the attacker came from.
At that time, would that person, or even Miss Death, be able to escape persecution from the continent’s largest organization?
It must be said that the Congregation of Revelation was not a group that forgot things. They even avenged the deaths of low-level members and were feared as a vengeful organization that punished mercilessly, always using the maximum penalties.
Because he was a member of the continent’s most respected religion, Sim was willing to take any risks. He was practically guaranteed possession of such a resource as long as he won the auction with his bids!
The woman shrouded in darkness looked at Sim and squeezed her hands tightly, understanding the man’s origin and why he dared to stand against her.
‘You damned dog from the Congregation of Revelation! Do you think you’re going to stay with Fear Anise? Dream on!’
“800 gold coins!” She raised the offer, imagining that these members of the local temple couldn’t compete with her.
As much as they were members of the largest organization on the continent, they weren’t there to represent the Congregation of Revelation but to obtain resources for themselves with their own coins. Their boundaries were not the same as their religion’s!
“810!” Assistant Temple Master Sim shouted, looking in the direction of this woman.
‘Slut! If you want Fear Anise, you’ll have to pay dearly for it.’ He thought to himself.
Why would magicians from a Light Path organization want a medicinal plant suitable for Dark Path practitioners?
Resources with affinities opposite to those of magicians would never benefit those who consumed them. However, that didn’t mean this type of resource didn’t have its uses or value for people like Assistant Temple Master Sim.
With Fear Anise, he could go from taking a resource useful to Dark Path magicians off the market, which in itself would weaken practitioners of that path, to even creating weapons and resources that could attack Dark Path magicians.
Resources such as Fear Anise were natural poisons for Light magicians. But with the work of the right professionals, they could become poisonous weapons against even Dark Path magicians!
That was the main interest of someone like Sim!
