"Let me explain things! Ehem!" Tyr suddenly got all cocky as he smiled, his smile was creepy, showing serrated jaws smirking on his amorphous ball of darkness body.
"You see, Spirit Treasures is what everyone develops inside their Soul Scape." Said Tyr. "Every being that has one develops them eventually. Usually, gods!"
"Gods?! Wait, so am I…?" I asked.
"Something like that, you're still in the early stages, you're no even one to begin with. But you're getting ahead of them by getting these things before even becoming one! Isn't it nice? Aren't I nice to tell you the big secrets no other god would dare to share with mortals?! Bwahahahaa!" Tyr began to laugh pridefully.
"But tell me what they are then!" I asked angrily.
"R-Right… Ahem." Tyr quickly cleared his throat. "Anyways, Spirit Treasures are that treasures made of spiritual elemental essence, the essence that creates all elements in the world. Gods possess this elemental essence as part of their very lifeblood. Smaller spirits also have them, but in lesser quantities. This is how spirits are so incredible, beings made purely out of an element yet are alive, and are also not even a normal soul either!"
"So these Treasures are made of this spirit essence thing… Do they make me stronger?" I asked.
"Naturally so! Gods of the highest ranks have countless treasures over their Soul Scape. Each one decorates their Soul Scape, which can later evolve into higher forms of internal spaces. Eventually, they are able to harbor physical beings inside. To grow stronger as a god, you cannot simply level up- well, the gods do not possess such power, but you do as you were born a mortal, so if you ever become a goddess, you'll be one of the first that can level up." He said with a smirk.
"Anyways, these Treasures contain special abilities, that enhance your elemental strength or can even produce special energies or even resources. Such resources you can use to craft special things with Spiritual Synthesis and the like." Tyr explained.
"Eh? Spiritual Synthesis? That sounds cool, what is it?" I wondered.
"Well what you just heard. It allows for the convergence of Spiritual Treasures to create brand new Sacred Items, often called Divine Treasures." Said Tyr. "Though that's not something we should discuss, you can't even reach that point yet… For now, "check" the Spirit Treasures. They're Lesser, but they will develop over time as you continue feeding your Soul Scape."
"Ooh! I see… Alright, let me see…"

Each Spirit Treasure was like a little bonus to my elemental power and magic power, and they even could bring special effects. The Withering Tree made my Phantasmal Essence Regeneration faster, alongside my own Soul Regeneration. Both of those are very useful! I am a ghost so with that I can literally regenerate my health faster.
Also, it seems they grant "X Element Power" which simply enhances that element in specific. Each tiny flower enhances it by +10 with their respective element, the more I have, the more bonus I get… But I cannot simply grow them normally, I can tell.
Ah, this new power is really interesting… It reminds me of gacha games where there was always a new way to enhance a character and give them even more stats or effects, each update, most of the time each year, always added this to keep the power creep increasing and give the player something to grind for even when it was virtually the same damn thing all the time.
Nonetheless, it is pretty interesting, the more Spirit Treasures, the more elemental power, the stronger and mightier I become! I guess this is also the key to the god's power, the key to Thor's lightning that could split a giant mountain in two twin mountains was his immense Elemental Power!
I wonder if everyone else could eventually develop their own Soul Scape…
"Right now you barely have a few, but it is interesting that you developed them at all by ingesting such a little amount of power into your Soul Scape. You're indeed very talented. That blessing of Hel must be helping you as well…" Tyr seemed rather amused of my Spirit Treasures.
"Are there ranks in the Spirit Treasures?" I wondered.
"Hmm… Yeah, something like that. Lesser is the lowest, if you develop further, these Lesser Spirit Treasures will increase on power to even higher grades. Naturally, their bonus stat and effects will be enhanced accordingly. Also, Spirit Treasures can evolve and take completely different shapes. Or sometimes, only by merging them with another, you can achieve their evolution…"
"Is there a way to get more aside from… developing them normally?"
"Yes… the Realm of the Spirits and the many other Realms in this world, which are spread across the various Continents have them grow naturally there, in small quantities. They're not treasures for nothing after all. If you ever want them, you'll have to snatch them away!"
I guess this has suddenly become a treasure seeking adventure…
