Silently, El walked away, leaving Silvia still lost in her reverie.
As soon as he left Silvia's booth, El began to wander around, visiting various booths along the way in search of items and broken equipment that he could use to increase his equipment level.
Currently, his Sky Pearl Poison had accumulated around 90 items and broken equipment from the Black and Bronze Ranks, consuming a total of 45,000 Points.
Although most of them were in damaged condition, some of them had high value at relatively low prices.
In fact, El sometimes had to bargain hard, forcing sellers to lower their prices to make them more affordable.
Here are some of them:

Satisfied with getting the desired item, El immediately headed to the Auction House to continue his plan.
Arriving at the Reincarnation Room Auction House, he immediately sat down and opened the Auction Catalog that appeared in the form of a holographic screen in front of him.
Without hesitation, El sold all the Skills he had, including Beast Flame, which had been stored in Ability Crystals to get new ones.
Before long, all the Skills were sold, resulting in a total of 210,000 Points.
With the addition of the previously owned points, El's total wealth now reached 297,950 Points.
Next, El began to browse through the Bronze Tier Equipment in the catalog. Compared to the Black Tier Equipment, it was much more expensive.
However, although the quality and effects of the available equipment were satisfactory, El still felt that his decision to craft and upgrade his own equipment was a wiser move.
This way, El could save more Points.
El's main purpose in looking through the Bronze Level Equipment was just to check the price for reference purposes.
After that, El switched to the Skill Catalog, intending to buy some Skills that would later be combined with Beads of Ascension.
El's fingers moved, sliding the holographic screen, while her eyes sharply and carefully traced each name and description of the Skills listed in the catalog.
"Stigma and Star Bust 500,000 Points? Too much... Curse Demon 100,000 Points? Still too expensive..." El muttered with a serious expression.
Suddenly, his eyes caught a familiar active skill. "Mysterious Skyfire... Change? Isn't this Xiao Yan's realm enhancement technique!?"
"Why does it only cost 10,000 Points? So cheap... and there's no demand for it?" he muttered, immediately opening the skill details.

After reading the details of the skill, El stared flatly and muttered to himself, "No wonder there are no enthusiasts, this skill is not even complete."
"Already so, there are more disadvantages than advantages. For Beyonder, it is a waste... Although, perhaps for Xiao Yan, it is a precious treasure," he continued, sighing.
El massaged his temples, not out of dizziness, but astonishment. "It turns out that there are also obscure active skills like this..."
Suddenly, a thought crossed his mind. "Wait... If I combine this with Demon Slayer Mark, what would the result be?"
Thinking of that possibility, a faint smile appeared at the corner of his lips.
Without hesitation, El immediately put in a bid for the skill and obtained it very easily.
Shortly after that, he also managed to obtain two pill recipes with quite expensive, but affordable ingredients that he had obtained quite a lot of, when visiting each booth in the trading area.
More importantly, El also got the Poison Pill Method for Xiao Yi Xian, of course... El would not collect the same materials as listed, El would improvise a bit.

In addition, El also obtained some high-quality materials that were more valuable than those he bought at the trade booth.
Some of these were metal materials such as Mithril, Orichalcum, Cold Iron, and Fire Crystals, each weighing 20 kg. In addition, he also obtained textile materials such as Spirit Cloth, Elemental Beast Fur, and 7-Colored Caterpillar Silk.
With all this, El spent 67,950 Points, leaving 230,000 Points.
After that, El stood up from his chair and immediately rushed towards his home in the Reincarnation Room to pick up all the items he obtained from the auction.
***
On his way back home in the Reincarnation Room, an unexpected event came to El.
While passing through the Trading Area, his eyes caught Sister Ichigo's booth that had reopened.
El was confused, weren't Sister Ichigo and the new Group Chat members on a mission?
Why did she come back so soon?
Curious, El decided to approach, just to say hello and talk for a moment, finding that the joint mission was just a pretext, the original purpose was just a vacation in another world.
El could not understand the behavior of a Beyonder with Authority level 3. Perhaps it was true in the rumors circulating among the Beyonder, that the higher the Authority Level, the more insane they would be.
However, without realizing it, in the midst of the crowd and casual conversation with Sister, a pair of hateful eyes stared at her from a distance.
Yasuwaki, the man El had once killed in the Black Bullet World, was now standing there, having become a Beyonder due to an unexpected plot twist.
Misaka realized the situation much faster than El, thanks to her incredibly sharp Kenbunshoku Haki.
As a good friend, without hesitation, Misaka immediately rebuked the figure who harbored ill intentions towards El.
With control and intimidation beyond reason, Sister unleashed Haoshoku Haki focused solely on Yasuwaki.
Although the Trading Area was crowded with other Beyonder, none of them were affected, only Yasuwaki felt the impact. This shows how terrifying a Tier 3 Authority can be in battle.
Instantly, his body trembled violently, his breathing was labored, and his face paled as if his soul was being torn apart by tremendous pressure.
However, before the Haoshoku Haki could completely paralyze him, someone suddenly appeared and helped Yasuwaki escape its influence.
Upon realizing the identity of the figure, Misaka's expression turns serious, as that person is her enemy. Because of this, Misaka formed a Group Chat and deliberately recruited people into it.
Misaka thinks fast, guessing that Yasuwaki might be a member or potential member of the group.
