"Take a look at this baby." Blake drew their attention to a gauntlet named Seismic guard.

"I love everything about it, but I don't get the seismic blast ability." Brian said in a confused tone.
[I have an idea of what the ability does, but first, purchase it.] The system said.
Not doubting the system Brian spent 120k points on the Seismic guard before they moved over to the armor section.
"I don't think it will be worth buying a trashy armor of 40k." Brian said after looking at the list of armor with the 40k mark.
After purchasing the guantlets, Brian could be considered broke. He had been hoping that something manageable would appear for 40k but seems he wasn't that lucky. The stats were so useless that he felt his elements were good enough and that they were better things to spend it on.
"I agree, let's go for those at 50k. I will pay extra 10k for both of you to get good armors." Blake said taking both of them stunned by his kindness.
"Thanks a lot." Brian and Castiel said with grateful smiles as they scrolled to the list 50k point's armor.
[It's quite contradictory how you are stingy with your points but felt comfortable to give away 20k points.
With the extra EP, Castiel went for a 60k armor since he needed the defense more than Brian, but both of the armors were nothing special.
Apart from call function, barrier, and mana harness which allowed the armor to absorb energy from the environment and replenish its core, there was nothing special about it.
"I think there is something I need." Blake said as he moved over to the cloak section.
He scanned through cloaks of different colors and designs, but there was one that caught his attention.
It was black and white in color and was named night veil. According to the image of the night veil, it was a cloak which the left part of it was knee length while the right part of it was waist length.
At the shoulder and waist level were thin white lines that bordered 3 layers of continuous white diamond-shaped design that stretch around the cloak.
[Name: Night veil.
Grade: High quality.
Item Type: cloak.
Active Ability(s): Conceals the user's presence, cloak and full-body camouflage, control over all parts of the cloak.
Passive Ability(s): Auto-clean and repair, a thin layer of barrier to all parts of the body.]
"The effects and abilities are awesome and will be perfect for someone like you, but do you think it is worth 40k?" Castiel asked, but all he got was a nod with a big grin on Blake's face as he purchased the cloak.
[I am lost at this point. Did someone transfer me to the mind of a Blake lookalike or am I dreaming?] The system was shocked by Blake's actions.
Some minutes ago he was thanking the heavens that he got Ebony ad ivory for free, but now he just blew 40k EP.
Blake ignored the system's remark and the system didn't think much about it. 40k Ep was quite a lot for other students but was nothing to Blake who before the purchase was nearing 200k EP although he bought the rampant armor which was 70k EP.
"Time to head over to the library, before getting some rest." Blake said as the trio moved to a warp array that sent them to the library.
By this time it was already dark and the library was empty, but due to the absence of any form of curfew, they moved in a relaxed manner.
Using the power of a locator, Blake easily found books on dagger techniques and close combat. Once they were sure that that was all, they registered at the door of the floor by scanning it against a blue orb on the wall.
"Let's check this bad boy out." Blake said with a wide grin as he bounded with cloak before storing it in his dimensional space and using the call function.
Using the wall mirror beside his close to his almost empty closet, Blake watched as the night veil shrunk to a perfect fit. He shrunk the length of the left side and move it towards that of the right making it the same length.
"Let's try something crazy." Blake shrunk both sides to a half cape and formed a hood with the extra part.
[Now I know why you bought the cloak, but it really isn't like you.] The system said in a wondering tone.
"It isn't what you think. Actually, my plan is to create my unique persona as the adventurer Zero." Blake said as he lay down on the white sheet to test the cloak's camouflage ability.
[That explains a lot, but I must say that is a brilliant idea. Standing out from other adventurers, especially with your controversial history will get you a lot of attention.] The system said.
"My point... It isn't bad at all." Blake said as he stood up from the bed and his body returned back to normal before the designs of the cloak turned pitch black.
"I think that is enough for today, time to do useful things.' Blake recalled the cloak into his dimensional space and began practicing chaining spells.
…
The next day the classes had resumed and the students were back to exercise to help awaken their mana vision.
