31. Magic Analysis (3)

An impossible thing happened.

Not enough that he analyzed magic and learned one unique magic, it was completely added to the magic card list.

“Ha, hehe···.”

A situation where empty laughter comes out on its own.

He will be able to easily learn unique magic that is difficult to learn unless a specific bloodline.

Then.

‘It means if somehow analyzing and learning other unique magics too, that can also be put in the magic card list.’

Slurp.

Ah, saliva came out without knowing.

But where can he see such kids?

‘Is there a person who learned our country’s unique magic?’

From what he hears it seems there isn’t.

Besides commonly known content, since he can’t know the matters in their own world well···.

First he has to investigate our country’s unique magic too.

The problem is unique magic of other countries.

‘Ah, doesn’t a person who uses unique magic drop somewhere.’

Thinking he can’t have even though he can have makes him want more.

Sigh, first he has to sleep.

Because he has to go to Wolha Market with the grandfather tomorrow.

* * *

Japan, Tokyo.

Horani Company conference room.

“This time a very important matter was given to us. Precisely you know that it was discovered this time. We will tomb raid the mana stones there.”

Tomb raiding operation overall, leader Takeda Goro.

Goro turned the documents one by one with rough hands.

“This time’s tomb raiding team composition is like this. Exploration in charge Misaki, excavation in charge Tetsu, transport in charge Hanatawa Kenshin. Here besides our team a total of three teams will enter at once, and from what is heard besides our company two more companies will come.”

“Hmm? Wait a minute. Then it means just in our team there are two transport in charge?”

“That’s right. Because the government hopes to bring quite a lot of amount of mana stones. I put two so they can move as much as possible at once.”

“Hiya, then how many transport in charge are attached in total? Isn’t this really thinking of moving the whole Korean mana stone vein?”

He deliberately didn’t answer those words.

From the start just looking at attaching three tomb raiding companies the intention was clear.

More important than that···.

“Everyone would know well, but this time’s matter especially has to be careful of the mouth. Because the government is very seriously engaged, keep in mind that if not careful of the mouth the company itself might fly away.”

“······.”

“······.”

He said quite fierce words.

Because those words meant all people related to the company might die.

“I’ll keep my mouth shut. But, team leader. Is this really okay? Even if Korea, openly tomb raiding would be dangerous? If caught won’t we be the ones who get flipped?”

Kenshin asked half serious, half joke.

Of course, naturally it wasn’t an easy problem.

“This investigation ‘Onmyoryo ’ also decided to join.”

“Yes? Where? Onmyoryo?”

A group that uses Japan’s unique magic, Onmyoryo.

Kenshin immediately accepted at that group name.

“Then no problem. The government is really serious? Looking at them even moving. By the way when is the execution date?”

“Three days from now, under the government’s approval we depart to Korea.”

“Time is tight.”

It was right before Japan’s tomb raiding operation was executed.

* * *

The next day, evening.

The day darkened and he headed to the market with the grandfather.

Because it was a market that opens under moonlight like the name.

Vrooooooom──!! Shaaaaaak!

“U-uwaaaah!”

New car, no. He gave the grandfather a ride in commemoration of drawing a bike.

But whether too fast he is flustered.

“Shall I reduce the speed a bit?”

“Ah, no! Let’s go f-faster!”

Huh?

Let’s go faster?

Was the grandfather also a man?

If he wishes···.

Vrooooooom──!! Shaaaaaak!

“U-uwaaaaaah!!”

He ran faster.

Somehow the grandfather liked it.

Screech!

He wondered how much he ran like that.

He arrived at the destination place.

Some alley commonly seen.

A green trash can, abandoned furniture too such an alley.

‘Just use anywhere on the wall here?’

The phrase written on the [Admission Ticket] received from Hyeonmin.

It says just put it on the alley wall.

Swoosh.

So he put it.

Then.

Wooong—.

A small portal generating on the wall.

At the same time the [Admission Ticket] extinguishing.

He entered inside together with the grandfather.

“Buy unappraised artifacts! You don’t know what will come out?”

“Just raised familiars!”

“If you want to know an amazing tomb raiding location come here!”

A space completely different from outside.

A background that feels like coming to the Middle East with stalls and mats spread and merchants selling lined up.

···There was a place like this?

‘He knew there were places like black markets, but he really didn’t know a place like this.’

It seems not for nothing Hyeonmin gave the admission ticket.

While strolling and looking together with the grandfather, there were really many rare things.

“Will you look at this guy? A guy caught a little while ago. A snake with two heads. One side flame type, one side freeze type familiar.”

-Shieek. -Shiiiik!

Snake familiar.

Different elements each on two heads.

There is a guy like this too.

“Hey, I know an amazing tomb raiding location? You don’t know what will come out there! If you give money I’ll tell you!”

Merchants clung to him as if soliciting customers.

But his purpose is not things like this.

“Hmm, there.”

The grandfather pointed at one merchant.

It was a merchant selling unappraised artifacts.

“You like gambling? Hehe. Please choose.”

Each artifact placed on the mat.

Unappraised artifacts that don’t know what state.

“Hmmm.”

The grandfather looked over one by one.

Picked up and looked closely, looked from far too.

Shake, shake.

The grandfather quietly shook his head.

It meant there was nothing usable.

“We’ll come next time.”

“Ehe, just looking you can’t know. If appraising who knows? A Special Grade artifact might come out······!”

“······.”

He lightly shook off and came out.

The grandfather who heard those words lightly whispered.

“Merchants give such hopes to sell. But absolutely don’t fall for it. There are many mages who become ruined people offering all their fortune fallen into such hope. Special Grade in a place like this? The probability of finding such is almost none. Hehe.”

This is why gambling is scary.

The hope that if it bursts once it will work is scary.

“Don’t worry. I haven’t even bought a lottery once.”

I’m a bit T-like.

If no conviction or not mine no interest.

Gambling? No way.

“Hehe, is that so? Fortunate. Generally merchants who put out unappraised artifacts here separately set aside good unappraised items long ago. From the start extremely good items are not put out.”

“Ah··· from the start.”

“However occasionally there are such. Occasionally jewel-like things they also don’t know and put out come out!”

As expected not doing an artifact junk shop for nothing.

Because he knows extremely a lot.

Weeing—.

At that time.

[All Phenomena Response] activated.

Some energy that particularly stands out was detected.

‘What is this?’

It doesn’t seem like a person’s mana.

Somehow heterogeneous yet peculiar energy mana.

“Grandfather I’ll go this way for a moment.”

Instinctively led by the sense.

After passing the market alley a couple times, he came out to another street.

There energy was detected from the mat a merchant with a blanket over put out.

‘This.’

Energy felt from a small box among the mat items.

He can’t explain what, but the energy gradually became more intense.

However, it wasn’t analyzed.

Just only detection.

“What is this?”

He pointed at the small black box and asked the merchant.

“This?”

The merchant weakly pointed at the small box again.

“Yes, that.”

“This is an item that came in from beyond the wall. An antique whose lid doesn’t even open.”

“The lid doesn’t open?”

“That’s right. By any chance if you want··· I’ll give cheap. There are guys who want items with a relic-like feeling like this so I brought it, but since no one buys···.”

Something brought from beyond the wall.

An item with a relic-like feeling.

Moreover a situation that doesn’t open.

What on earth is inside that.

Very, very curious.

“I’ll buy. How much?”

“Please give 50,000 won.”

“···50,000 won?”

Ing, too cheap.

Still is this an ordinary market somewhere.

A place selling all kinds of rare things.

“Since everyone doesn’t even glance. I’ll give cheap, you can take it.”

Well, is there something bad.

With 50,000 won it is worth buying.

Because what is felt inside that was certain.

He doesn’t know what, but it is not ordinary.

“I’ll buy.”

Swoosh.

He handed the money and received the box.

He tried to open the lid immediately, but as the merchant said it didn’t budge at all.

“It is sealed.”

The grandfather who saw that said one word.

“Sealed?”

“Occasionally there are items like this. Items that are sealed under some condition. Since obtained from beyond the wall, it seems that.”

Kiya, as expected there is nothing he doesn’t know.

‘Sealed.’

Yeah, there is sense.

He also was certain of what is felt inside this.

Taking it didn’t seem bad.

“Hmm, there are artifacts there too.”

Just in time he also discovered another merchant.

This time quite several artifacts were visible.

“Hmmm.”

The grandfather examined the items with hands behind his back.

The merchant carefully examined such a grandfather.

“Grandfather, you seem to know how to look at artifacts a bit?”

“What would an old me know. Just looking closely because it doesn’t show well, hehehe.”

“Hahaha, still look well. Who knows? Haha.”

The merchant passed it off lightly.

But at that moment.

“······.”

The grandfather flinched.

The merchant didn’t seem to notice, but it was visible to his eyes that had watched the grandfather until now.

‘Did he find something?’

“Hmm, nothing here either. Let’s go.”

Huh?

Not?

The grandfather said just go.

“Ehe, grandfather. I thought you were looking at something but not! Looking at these good things here and not knowing! Look a bit more?”

The merchant hurriedly grabbed such a grandfather.

Then the grandfather hesitating as if losing.

···Originally he cut sharply and left?

“Hmm, time is short. Isn’t it almost time for us to go out now?”

“Yes? Ah, yes··· right. Now we have to go.”

He says something strange.

Naturally matched the grandfather’s words.

“No choice. Kid, this place seems better so let’s choose one. There is no time.”

“Uh, uh··· yes. I’ll do that.”

“Hahaha, you thought well. Even if going elsewhere it is the same? Our store is better.”

The merchant excited at the grandfather who turned his steps.

In the meantime, the grandfather pointed at something with a chin gesture.

It was a ‘black robe’ mixed among numerous unappraised artifacts.

A black robe with a feeling similar to what Catholic priests wear.

‘Black priests’ clothes?’

But why did he point at this.

The grandfather with hands behind his back pointed at the robe once each thump, thump.

As if somehow urgent.

“This looks cool somehow.”

“Oh, the grandson also has an eye like the grandfather. But although unappraised the base value has to be so. 100 million, is it possible?”

···100 million?

Isn’t it expensive for unappraised?

‘Well, basically artifacts are expensive though.’

Then if a dud with no options at all?

That is just no different from buying ordinary clothes for 100 million···.

“This guy right now what is he saying··· this is unappraised though, just looking it would be high grade at best. Not right? If high grade at best the probability of ordinary with no options coming out is also high. Our grandson is a personality that unconditionally does if stuck on one thing so I won’t stop but··· there, 100 million is a bit···.”

“Ha, haha··· aigo, grandfather. If like this we starve to death. Understood! Discounted to 50 million! I’ll discount half!”

“······.”

Ah he almost got ripped off.

While saying discounting discounting half?

‘Too harshly bargained.’

Despicable! This uncle.

How much of my precious money is he trying to eat···.

“Let’s do that. You also have to live eating. Kid, I have to give that much.”

But the grandfather accepted.

Is 50 million sufficient?

“What is the account?”

He immediately transferred the money and received the artifact.

“Hahaha, you should say thanks to the grandfather. Buying this this cheap! Then come again next time!”

Like that he bought the item and came out.

Then the grandfather smiling broadly.

“That guy, no talent for business.”

“···Why?”

“Handing over something this precious for just 50 million. He will clearly go bankrupt not lasting long, tsk tsk.”

Huh.

As expected there was something?

“It might not be visible to your eyes, but it was visible to my eyes. That artifact’s grade.”

“···What grade was it?”

“Legendary.”

“······!?”

What?

What grade?

But more surprising.

‘Even buying a Legendary grade artifact for 100 million is completely leftover business but he discounted that half?’

The grandfather became scary.
