Chapter 47 Imperius Ink 

Alice went over to sign the contract with the person in charge. 

Soon, the auction kicked off 

The first few items were just simple jewelry pieces, 

But Alice’s sharp eyes caught sight of an emerald heart pendant. 

“That looks kind of like the one Henry brought over today. 

A heart pendant made from gold and silver was pretty plain. 

It only needed casting. 

But emeralds were tricky stones that took real skill to carve into a heart shape. 

So the emerald heart pendant was special. 

Alice recognized it right away. 

Suddenly, she got curious. 

Henry had 

brought the item back, and now it was already up for auction tonight. 

By that alone, she was confident the Nolans were mixed up in something shady. 

The emerald heart pendant was high quality, so it started at 300,000. 

After the auctioneer called out the starting bid, only a few scattered bids came in, pushing the price to 400,000, 

Alice smiled a little and raised it by 10,000, winning the pendant for 410,000. 

When Eric saw her raise the paddle, he already guessed what she was doing and smiled faintly 

Only Daniel was left speechless and confused. 

He didn’t get it at all. 

“Mrs. Nolan, aren’t you going a bit overboard buying this?”

She could’ve just asked Mrs. Irene for it. 

Spending money on this now seems like a waste. 

Alice didn’t say anything because the next item was one she had sent herself. 

“Next up, the first truly amazing item of the day.” 

The auctioneer said, immediately catching everyone’s attention. 

The earlier stuff had been boring, making many think the auction was a waste of time 

Now hearing that, everyone turned their heads toward the stage. 

The people here were cultured and knowledgeable. 

Many understood how rare the Imperius Ink was. 

First, it had to be made with aged castor oil–the older, the better. 

Then lotus fibers were woven into the ink, which was tough to make; you could only get a few pounds of lotus fiber from tons of lotus root. 

After that, the ink had to air–dry for over six months. 

When finished, it could be soaked in water and was fireproof. 

It was called the king of inks! 

But this ink was pretty niche. 

Usually, art lovers or calligraphy fans treasured it like a gem. 

Some just wanted it as a rare collector’s item because the Imperius Ink was so hard to 

Others bought it just to show off their status. 

Either way, though it was niche, everyone there quietly gasped. 

find. 

Outside, the Imperius Ink was priceless and almost never sold, yet he were three boxes of them!

After explaining how the ink was made, the auctioneer showed its magic live. 

MUN, JU JUI

Especially when dipped in water, the stamped pattern stayed clear and bright, unaffected by 

the water. 

Linda got so excited she almost gasped out loud. 

Luckily, Damon pulled her back. 

“Damon, if we get one of these, your mentor 

Damon nodded. 

Even without Linda saying it, he knew how much the ink meant to them. 

Actually, although his mentor seemed to favor him, the mentor had many accomplished students. 

The mentor liked those who achieved more. 

Damon’s good status was because he found rare, hard–to–get 

items. 

If he scored the Imperius Ink now, his mentor would be very pleased. 

Not to mention the Twelve Muses-that could boost his status even more. 

Charlie’s voice dropped. 

“Don’t worry. If we need more money, I’ve got it.” 

The other Nolans nodded. 

In other words, even combining the five brothers‘ resources, they had to get the ink. 

The three inks were auctioned one by one. 

The first went to a rich 

guy 

for ten million. 

At first, everyone hesitated–after all, it was just ink. 

Then the second ink started a bidding war, shooting up to 50 million 

Linda clenched her teeth and pushed it to 60 million. 

That was her limit.

more. 

“We have to win this, or the last one will go even higher.” 

Linda wore a mask, hiding her face, but her eyes were cold and serious. 

Gary thought for a second. “Alright, another five million.” 

Linda called out the price right away. 

Alice sized up their finances and decided to stop while she was ahead. 

The Spencers finally won the ink for 70 million. 

Of course, on top of that, they had to pay the auction house a 20% fee.
