The treasury was divided into three rooms. The outermost room had twelve glowing jewels at the top, illuminating the entire treasury with incomparable brightness.
"Not bad, these 12 jewels are worth a lot!" Abel said to Burbage with a smile.
"Your Majesty, these jewels were accumulated by the George family for many years. It took hundreds of years just to collect them. That was when the duchy was at its strongest!" Burbage said with a sigh. Then he realized that he had said too much. The duchy had a new master, so he quickly bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I've forgotten about it!"
"It's not a bad thing to be nostalgic. I'm not a harsh person, so be at ease!" Abel waved his hand and said with a smile.
"Your Majesty, this room is filled with ordinary treasures. Most of them are antiques!" Although Abel was generous, Burbage still paid attention to what he said.
Abel looked carefully. The items here were very precious to the nobles. There were all kinds of accessories for both men and women.
Most of them were items of historical value. He had received aristocratic education, so he could see the origins of some of the items. Most of them were used by famous people in different eras, and some were works of art.
He picked up a piece of art made of coral and played with it. He then looked through the other items.
"Burbage, the items here are not valuable. Find something that is ornamental and put it in the palace. What are you putting it here for?" Abel put down the items in his hand and said to Burbage.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Burbage replied.
He was speechless. Although the items in the first room of the palace treasury were placed in the first room, they were still the best treasures in the world.
However, in Abel's eyes, the items here were just ornaments.
He had to follow Abel's orders. He didn't think that anyone would dare to steal from Abel's palace.
At the same time, he knew that everything here belonged to Abel. Even if Abel asked him to throw everything away, he had to do it.
Abel entered the second room, which also had 12 orbs, but most of the items here were weapons.
"Is this the Red Sun Armor?" Abel couldn't help but ask when he saw the three identical golden armors.
The reason he recognized the three sets of golden armor was not because of how powerful they were, but because he had seen a replica of them at the Lord Marshall's place.
Although this antique armor was not bad, it was far inferior to the armor that he had forged, not to mention the magic armor above it.
The only good thing about these three sets of Crimson Sun Armor was that when the sun shone on them, they would emit a fiery red glow. It was because of this effect that they were so popular among the nobles.
"Yes, Your Majesty, this is the Red Sun Armor!" Burbage bowed and said.
"Remember, I'll take two sets as gifts!" Abel said to Burbage as he put the two sets of Red Sun Armor into his portal bracelet.
The rest of the items were not bad, but they were only slightly valuable. Maybe all of them added together were not as valuable as Abel's Knight's Sword. Of course, this did not include the cultural value.
"Don't put them here. Put them all in the palace as decorations!" Abel said with a frown.
If it was a normal person or a normal wizard's treasury, it would be fine. However, as a Grandmaster Blacksmith, if he put such rubbish in his treasury, he would be treated as a joke if his friends came over and saw it.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Burbage bowed.
He saw the disdain in Abel's eyes. He couldn't help but let out a bitter laugh as he looked at the items that had been collected by his family for generations.
How could the items collected by a normal duchy be compared to the work of the only Grandmaster Blacksmith in the human world? At the same time, he understood what Abel meant. These items were not worthy of being put here. They could only be used as decorations.
Abel then walked into the third room. The same 12 orbs lit up the room.
There were not many items here. There were 10 Knight's Secret Techniques books, a Magic Knight's Sword, a Magic Shield, and a set of Magic Armor. They were all placed on a shelf.
"Your Majesty, this set of Magic Armor belongs to the Duchy of Carmel, and the Knight's Secret Technique belongs to the Knight's Secret Technique of the George Family!" Burbage explained.
Abel went up and flipped through the 10 Knight's Secret Techniques books. He realized these techniques were a bit more powerful than Family Harry's Knight's Secret Techniques. Most importantly, they were comprehensive. They covered almost every aspect of the Knight's Secret Techniques, including the Knight's Secret Techniques on horseback, foot, attack, and defense.
"This Knight's Secret Technique is not bad. Keep it in the treasury. That set of Magic Armor is too ordinary. Put it next to the throne in the palace as decorations!" Abel said as he pointed at the set of Magic Armor.
"Yes, Your Majesty!" Burbage replied helplessly.
Next, Abel saw a huge piece of Meteorite Iron. He touched it with his hand and knew this Meteorite Iron was from the same period as the one in Matthew's secret room.
It was very likely that they were from the same batch of Meteorite Iron that fell from the sky. Otherwise, such huge Meteorites would not have been found in the Duchy of Carmel.
"Leave this Meteorite Iron!" Abel said as he patted the Meteorite Iron.
He was not going to take the Meteorite Iron away. Since his forging skills had improved, he could now forge ordinary Iron Ores into Iron Ores. Although it was not as good as the Meteorite Iron, it was enough to replace the Meteorite Iron as the material for the super exploding ball.
Besides, he could get such rare materials from other places. The Meteorite Iron in the treasury could be left to his descendants!
Steward Burbage nodded and let out a long breath of relief. Other than the Knight's secret technique, there was finally something that Abel was interested in. Otherwise, the entire treasury would have been emptied out.
There was a box on the side. Abel stepped up and opened it. There was a scepter and a crown inside. The scepter was made out of green tourmaline. It was very rare to see tourmaline this big.
Tourmaline was already the top gem in the Holy Continent, let alone this huge one.
The crown was made of gold and was inlaid with hundreds of tiny gemstones. In the middle of the crown was a huge diamond, and its quality had reached the perfect grade.
"Your Majesty, this scepter and crown are the secret treasures of the George family. They have never been made public!" Burbage explained.
"Of course they wouldn't make it public, you know? What would happen if wizards found out about the diamond on the crown? "Abel said with a smile.
"Is this diamond very precious?" Burbage asked in a soft voice.
Although he was a steward of the royal family, he only knew about gems like a normal person. He didn't know what a perfect gem meant to a wizard.
"If wizards knew about this, they would have already robbed it!" Abel shook his head and replied with a smile.
Burbage looked at the crown. He knew these 2 treasures had never left the treasury ever since he got them. Even the kings of the past had kept them in the treasury.
"If I have a banquet, do I need to wear a crown and a scepter?" Abel asked. He remembered King Spender George was wearing a crown when he saw him.
"Of course, your Majesty. It's okay if you don't wear a crown, but you should pay attention to your clothes and accessories during important occasions. A crown and scepter are a must!" Burbage replied.
"Ok, I'll use them during the banquet!" Abel put the scepter and the crown into his portal bracelet.
Burbage wanted to stop Abel, but he remembered that Abel was different from the other kings. These treasures might attract the attention of wizards, but for a powerful wizard like Abel, wearing them was not a problem.
Finally, there were a bunch of anonymous magic gold cards. There were about 10 million gold coins in total. This was probably the accumulation of the Duchy over countless years.
These anonymous magic gold cards were not attractive to Abel at all. He casually took out 50 million gold cards and threw them into the drawer.
He had too many spoils of war on him, especially the anonymous magic gold cards, which he couldn't use at all.
