" Now we have the fourth item." A box covered with cloth . "It's the remains of a mystical creature. Well, we don't really know what it is , but the seller says it's a fangs and claws of THE LYCAON . " the auctioneer introduced the third item .
" You are probably thinking, if we really don't know for sure that this is the remains of Lycaon, the being that is only known in fairy tales, how can you put it on auction.
" You guys are half right - half wrong , we cannot confirm if it is what the seller says , but they showed us an interesting thing in this item . " Auctioneer says and uncovered the box which was covered in cloths . It reveals the item .
Inside the box we can see four fangs , a length of 4 inches each . it resembles saber tooth tiger's fangs but smaller in size and a bit slimmer .
And the claws were like the finger of a human ( with raser sharp claws of 3 inch extended . Each finger was separated.
" This is unlike us humans ever seen , we don't know what it is or which being it belongs to but the interesting part is , it can regenerate. Not the whole hand or any other part but the remaining fingers . If you cut a mark in the finger or sever the finger into two parts , it can heal or attach itself in mere seconds. We have proof for that , we can demonstrate for you ."
" We want to see it " The audience and the participants request to do it .
The auctioneer nods his head and a minute later a man enters the stage with a surgical kit and opens a scalpel . He cuts a mark width of one inch , the cur heals itself in a fraction of a second . The people in the auction house gasped .
Some of the participants picked up their phone and started calling. Then again the man with the scalpel severs the finger into two . The two parts attach to the other end and rejoin without leaving any mark.
