"So what are you waiting for? Put that thing on and let me see if you're worthy of it." Hasan crossed his arms, looking at me.
"Alright…" I smiled, quickly equipping the ring.
The effect was almost immediate, my Mana Aura erupted as I suddenly gained two hundred thousand more units in a split of a second.
FLUOSH!
"Oooh?!"
I felt the energy overflowing through my entire body, and that wasn't all, my Magic Power also took a great boost, and so did most of my other stats as well!
This ring's effects were completely out of this world, just on their bonus stats alone, it was enough for me to be happy!
With over two hundred thousand more Mana, what can't I summon now? I'll still need the Spirit Orbs, yeah, but the Mana required to create the Familiar Cards is no longer a problem.
At least for now…
Ding!
[You have equipped the [Spirit Prince Ring (Spiritual Grade): Lv10]!]
[The Ring's Five Spiritual Souls have accepted you as a worthy wielder of their power.]
[The [Ancient Spirit of Fire: Salamander] approves of your courage.]
[The [Ancient Spirit of Water: Undine] approves of your gentleness.]
[The [Ancient Spirit of Wind: Sylphid] approves of your freedom.]
[The [Ancient Spirit of Earth: Gnome] approves of your perseverance.]
[The [Ancient Spirit of Nature: Dryad] approves of your bonds.]
So those were the requirements to be approved by the ring?
Courage, Gentleness, Freedom, Perseverance, and Bonds… Indeed, it is quite hard to achieve everything completely.
Hasan might have approved over half of them, but he certainly seems always lonely, his Bonds are not strong enough.
He also restricts himself too much, he lack Freedom.
He possess great Courage, and he does have a Gentle side as well as being someone that Perseveres very well.
But the other two things… he's failing at them.
Sylphid as the Ancient Spirit of Winds desires freedom like the wind.
And Dryad, the Spirit of Nature, desires bonds, much like nature creates bonds with one another to live and prosper.
However, these names are merely of their race, perhaps these ancient spirits, the people that these fragments belonged to, might have had other names.
Nonetheless, because these fragments are only that, pieces of them, their memories might be also mostly lost, and so their true identities have slowly simply taken their simplest of names.
"T-The ring accepted you right away!" Hasan said in surprise. "When I tried to use it, I could only draw a part of its stats, and I couldn't even summon a barrier nor the manifestations like my ancestors… Yet you got all the stats right away?!"
"Kind of." I nodded. "Also… Let's try it. [Ancient Spirit Manifestation: Salamander]"
FLUUOSH!
Before all of us, a sphere of spiritual flames materialized in a split of a second, slowly taking the form of a humanoid-like reptilian being, made of pure crimson flames, his eyes glowing like red jewels, with muscular arms and big scales.
He lacked legs though, simply resembling a genie, with only its torso exposed, the other half resembling a long snake-like tail.
Ding!
[You have temporarily summoned the [Ancient Spirit of Fire: Salamander]!]
[For 1 hour, Salamander will help you and protect you with his almighty Spiritual Flames.]
[Additionally, while being within his presence, all of your and your allies' Fire Attribute Magic Power increases by +500%, while their MP Cost decreased by -50%.]
[It is also possible to imbue [Ancient Spirit Flame Essence] into your Fire Magic, Weapons, Armor, and other things you might enchant or craft, giving various effects.]
Amazing! Not only his presence was incredibly imposing, but the effects also he granted were incredible. Is this the same for all the Spirits?! I've gotten the best equipment piece I could have ever imagined right now!
"It appears that after hundreds of years, a worthy wearer of our ring has appeared." It spoke with a mighty and ferocious voice. "Young man, what is your name?"
"Blake." I smiled. "It is nice to meet you, Salamander."
"You seem like my type of guy." Laughed Salamander. "Let's work together from now on!"
"I-Incredible, an Ancient Spirit!" Hasan said in shock.
"Amusing…" Cattalina smiled in shock.
"W-What?!" Evelyn couldn't believe it.
"You did it Blake! I knew you could!" Erika said, cheering for me.
"T-That's amazing… He looks much cooler than my own Salamander!" Chris said.
"Amazing." Eric nodded. "Such an ancient treasure… Ooh, I got so much to ask the Ancient Spirits too! How was your magic in the past? Do you have any knowledge on alchemy?"
"Hmmm, so annoying." Salamander yawned. "I'm not here to talk little things like those, brat! I've made a pact with that Prince to protect his descendants, but I didn't seen anywhere in that contract something saying I should just tell you all I know!"
Salamander was pissed off, his flames flowing towards Eric.
"Eep!" Eric quickly stepped back in horror.
"Now, knock it off. Be nice with my friends." I grabbed his tail and pulled it.
"AAGH! Don't pull my tail!" He complained.
"Anyways, is there anything else?" I asked Hasan.
"You want more?!" Hasan sighed, as he slowly took something from his pocket and threw it at me half-heartedly. "Take this…"
"A Silver Card? Wait… is this?!"
"Yeah, that's a Platinum Student VIP Card. Usually only given to excellent graduates of our Academy. With this, you can get great discounts in any shop, and your access to most dungeons will also be prioritized." He sighed. "After discussing this I was only able to get one for Blake, so sorry for everyone else."
"It's fine, as long as we hang around with him we should be able to enjoy the benefits!" Erika smiled.
"Now, now, isn't that an interesting thing?" Elizabeth wondered, looking at the silver card with greedy eyes.
"That card can also be used to utilize the credit deposited inside of banks." Explained Erika's mother. "Once you graduate you can get one yourselves, although I can't guarantee it being Platinum, but with Blake possessing one, all of you could let him save your savings."
"Ain't no way I'm letting you have my money!" Chris was very defensive about it.
"I'm no thief…" I facepalmed. "But so be it, you're free to decide. Anyways, I feel satisfied with this I suppose. Let's go back to our house, it has been a long week, that's for sure."
"Yeah, I'm beat…" Erdrich yawned, walking away.
"Me too, I just want to sleep for the rest of the day." Elfriedden admitted.
"Then we'll get going! See ya old man!" Erika said, waving her hand.
"E-Erika! Don't call me like that!" Hasan complained. "You damn brat, this is all your fault, now all the students won't treat me with respect!"
"Hahaha, just let her be, she's the daughter of one of your strongest professors." Cattalina giggled mischievously. "Anyways, Erika, do you want mommy to prepare you some sweets? How about some pastries?"
"Yaaay! Mama's pastries are the best!" Erika nodded.
"Heh, looks like things are getting more lively than before…" I laughed a bit, glancing at Hasan one last time. "Don't push yourself too hard, old man. Be safe." I left over his desk an Elixir. "Drink this, you'll feel better."
"What's this thing- Huh?! Mythic Grade Elixir?!" He muttered. "Where did you…? Ah…"
Before he could even ask me, I wasn't there anymore, however, I could hear him drinking that Elixir I had prepared, and sighing in relief, feeling much better.
