The mercenary clearly had not thoroughly studied the uses of the Nightmare Heart Candle. Entering an opponent's Mind World was only one of the candle's abilities. Its more important powers were dragging an opponent into the deepest layer of dreams and splitting personalities.
The mercenary named a price. "900 Pounds!"
This was a perfect opportunity to snap up a bargain. Hobart immediately stood. "I'll take it!"
He dared say that among everyone attending the gathering, only he knew all the abilities and side effects of this stub of candle.
In appearance, the Nightmare Heart Candle truly had nothing special about it. A Mystical Item capable of entering an enemy's Mind World was probably worth around 1000 Pounds.
But if entering the Mind World was the Nightmare Heart Candle's only ability, then with its side effects, selling it for 900 to 950 Pounds would have been perfectly reasonable.
If one knew all of its abilities, the Nightmare Heart Candle's price could immediately increase four- or fivefold. That was only the base price; a Mystical Item that nearly matched Sequence 6 would certainly command a premium.
That was the advantage of having an omniscient perspective. Many participants at the gathering had also noticed that this candle seemed capable of more than merely entering an opponent's Mind World, but they would not gamble on whether it truly possessed additional abilities.
Many Mystical Items had been put up for sale at the gatherings over the past few weeks. They would use the money in their hands to buy things they were more confident about.
Only Hobart knew the Nightmare Heart Candle's exact nature. He had to seize this bargain! Moreover, the Beyonder Gathering at the Mercenary Club had clear rules: if one requested an appraisal and notarization, one had to pay a certain notarization
