He rubbed his hands and stepped closer, his tone full of emotion. “To be honest with you, Mr. Ortega, I took in this piece half a year ago and kept it sitting in storage ever since. Plenty of people asked about the price before, but the moment they heard 50 million, they all backed off. Only you had the nerve. Now that the blood gemstone has been revealed, you wouldn’t be able to lose money even if you wanted to.”

That was the truth. At the current market price of blood gemstone, just the area already exposed was worth no less than 50 million.

I was just nodding in response when, behind me, the cutter suddenly let out a shrill cry. “My heavens! This entire piece is all blood gemstone!

The moment the words fell, the once-noisy backyard instantly exploded.

A fingertip-sized reveal of a blood gemstone was already rare enough. Now the entire stone glowed with a warm red luster, making even the most seasoned merchants suck in a sharp breath—an intact piece of blood gemstone of this caliber simply couldn’t be measured by ordinary prices.

I smiled slightly. That answer was pleasant to hear. “Ms. Cobbett, you’re being too modest. I’ve gained quite a bit myself from learning the hnesh language from you.”

“Not for sale. For now.” I looked at the crystal-clear red gemstone, my plan already taking shape. “Next month is the annual celebration of the Eclipse Pack. I intend to use it as the centerpiece token. The effect should be quite good.”

“You’re very farsighted.” A trace of admiration flashed in her eyes. “Using a rare blood gemstone to anchor the event will not only showcase the strength of the Eclipse Pack, but also give the celebration much more appeal.”

I was naturally aware of that layer of consideration, but I didn’t tell her the deeper thought. When I saw her staring at the blood gemstone earlier, I inexplicably felt that this blood gemstone might have some kind of connection to her.

After the stone was completely cut, the intact blood gemstone was properly secured.
