Chapter 87: (1)
Having my own space certainly makes things convenient.
[Hehe! Thats thanks to me, you know?]
Kaiyan left Rieka and Lukuba Merchants behind and entered his private space. As he entered the space, the first thing that greeted him was a mischievous black horse.
Heh, youve been doing well, Blackie.
[But, Kaiyan, who were those people following us earlier?]
While petting the black cat, Kaiyan was asked by Rieka, who tilted her head curiously.
Well they might be assassins sent by Lady Carsia. Hoil even warned us when we left the mansion.
When Kaiyan and Reika had left Lukuba Merchants through a different door than the one they entered with Marlons guidance, they had realized that someone was trailing them within their detection range.
Kaiyan would have liked to confront them and ask for their reasons for following him, but this place was within a bustling city full of people. Thats why he had left them behind and entered the alley, coming to this private space.
[Maybe? Anyway, judging by the fact that they were tailing us, it doesnt seem like they have good intentions! Im really relieved we have this private space!]
Yeah, theyre probably panicking because they cant find us.
The faces of those who were looking for Kaiyan would be priceless by now. They were most likely searching every nook and cranny, completely unaware that he was in a place they couldnt possibly find.
Now, shall we check the items weve acquired?
As Kaiyan opened the pouch at his waist and took out the elemental cores and the red bracelet he had stored inside, Rieka also exclaimed with excitement as she took a yellow ring from her pouch at her waist, as if she had forgotten about it.
[Right!]
Whats the matter?
[I almost forgot about this. Its also an artifact.]
What was she constantly pulling out of that small pouch? Rieka rummaged through the pouch and took out a silver ring.
[Its the artifact that Jansen had. I confiscated it at the time and almost forgot about it.]
Oh, I see. I had forgotten too.
Back then, he had only possessed Saraganas Fury, and it had made him feel good. But now, looking at Yansens artifact, he wondered why it looked so unimpressive.
So what does the silver ring do?
A silver ring? Someone as wealthy as Yansen would at least have a gold ring.
[Hmm It has a magic seal that can unlock locked doors. Its a fairly high-grade magic for being non-elemental.]
Unlocking doors? Why on earth did he carry something like this?
Somehow, he hadnt used artifacts until just before he died, and now, it turned out that it wasnt that he hadnt used them, but that he couldnt use them.
[Maybe he was planning to become a thief?]
Is there a chance? Hes a child of a wealthy family with a lot of money, so there must have been a purpose for carrying it I just cant guess.
That cunning and clever guy wouldnt carry a useless artifact with him.
However, even after contemplating with Rieka for a while, the answer that came out was:
I dont know.
I dont know either.
Phew Never mind. Hes already dead, after all. Lets check the other artifacts.
Although curiosity was there, compared to other artifacts, it didnt carry much weight, so it was quickly forgotten.
Rieka arranged the artifacts one by one, then pointed to the red bracelet at the front.
I mentioned this earlier, but this is an artifact engraved with 4th Circle Fire Magic. Its called Blaze Armor. Its a magic that literally surrounds the user with burning flames for protection.
Blaze Armor I like the sound of that.
I agree with that. Indeed, in situations like this, a defensive ability, whether awakening or not, doesnt make much difference. Even my shield skills, of which I have one, have not been used for quite some time.
Even though Blaze Armor showed only a certain level of defensive ability, it was certain that future battles would be easier.
Next is this!
Rieka pointed to a yellow ring with sparkling eyes.
Just to let you know, this is mine!
I dont plan to steal it.
Hehe! This ring is enchanted with space expansion magic and shape-shifting magic! Thats why it doesnt look like a pouch but like this
Rieka used her short front paw to bring the bracelet to the ring, and just like a storage box, the bracelet disappeared.
It can store items! Of course, the space inside is not that large, but this ring will be my backpack from now on! My backpack was more uncomfortable than I thought.
How are you planning to carry that around? Its not meant to be worn on your hand or foot due to its size
The size of the ring was designed to fit between a persons fingers. Naturally, it was impossible for Rieka with her small and cute feet.
However, Rieka seemed to have no worries, as she brought a small string from somewhere.
If I hang it here on my neck, theres no problem!
Alright then Now, this is the last one. What exactly is this elemental core?
By using a fire elemental core, you can manipulate a power close to the essence of fire. However, be cautious because if someone who cant control the power uses it, theyll be burned by that power. But with your abilities, you can easily use even a high-grade core, so dont worry!
Be burned, huh How do you use it?
Earlier, when Mr. Marlon was talking about 1st Circle magic, it seemed like they eat the cores on the Eunasia continent, but the actual usage method is to hold it in your hand and slowly absorb the energy. Like absorbing mana!
Like this?
Kaiyan held the red core in his hand, and warm energy flowed through his fingertips into his heart.
Exactly! Maybe its because you learned the high-level Aura Absorption skill, but youre doing it easily!
Indeed, if it had been when he was using the Meislin Aura manual before, he wouldnt have absorbed the power of the core so easily. This was only possible because of learning the Millian Valensys aura manual.
More precisely, its probably thanks to the Energy Absorption (M) skill.
Even if he did nothing, the Energy Absorption (M) skill, which absorbed mana, was assisting in absorbing the hot energy.
When the red energy had filled his heart to some extent, Rieka took the bead from his hand.
Why?
You shouldnt absorb too much at once! If you dont give the energy time to settle, it will just go out again. Thats why I told you not to eat it.
Well, I guess theres no choice then.
He was disappointed that he couldnt fully absorb the red bead, but he couldnt ignore the wise advice of his assistant, Rieka, so he put the red bead back in the storage.
