Chapter 235 Building up the Team
With only a couple of days left until the group needed to return to the Pagna Academy, Raze felt like there was still a lot that he needed to do in terms of getting things together in the Demonic Faction.
One of those things was producing the pills that he and Dame would now sell, using part of the Crimson Crane name to help them.
This was the first call to action for Raze, no matter how much he wanted to check out the new device he had received. So, he headed back to the Inn where the others were staying, and for a moment, they were surprised when they saw Raze with a different face.
“Huh, what, who did you bring with you, what happened to Raze?” Liam asked.
“Oh, right?” Raze said, closing the door behind him and reaching towards his face. A slight glow appeared as he took off the mask and handed it back to Dame. “You’re going to need this for when we head back to the academy.”
Dame looked at it for a few moments before deciding to put it on there and then. His facial structure soon started to change, and now, although having the same appearance that Raze had moments ago, it looked slightly different due to the differences in height and body structure.
The person they were looking at was more known to the students as Pink.
“You never know, as soon as the Clan finds out that I’ve abandoned them, they might send people out looking for me.”
“Wow, these magic items, they sure are special, huh?” Liam commented. “It would be quite amazing if we had some too.”
The way Liam talked, it was almost in a sarcastic voice. He remembered that Raze had promised he would make the others some items, but he had been somewhat sidetracked with everything going on, and helping out Safa with using her Light Magic powers.
Thankfully, at a glance, Safa seemed to be doing well, and Raze could even see a faint glow around her neck. It seemed she had been practicing the gathering of Mana quite a bit while they were away.
A little more, and Raze could teach her a simple spell for her to use. In doing so, it wouldn’t be long until she was able to speak again.
“Ah yes, don’t worry, I am someone of my word. In fact, now we have plenty of crystals to use for this.” Raze reached out his hand, and a filled sack appeared.
It was the crystals that had been taken from the Neverfall Clan base. Now that Dame was with them, Raze felt like it was less of a risk if a portal break was to occur from making high-grade items. It wasn’t as if they needed to defeat the creatures that came out of the portal, but more so to get a chance to escape before anything occurred to them.
The first thing Raze did was gather a bunch of level 2 power stones and tried to combine them to make level three power stones. As usual, a couple of times the process had failed; it was the risk with the power stones in the first place. Finally, though, three level 3 power stones had been made after creating quite a few failures.
“That’s quite the amazing power in itself. Just through the use of magic, you can create higher-grade power stones; you’re just a money-making machine, aren’t you?” Dame commented.
“Although it’s fine to do at this stage, as the use of power stones gets higher, it’s not the best thing to do,” Raze explained. “Could you imagine using three level 5 power stones and losing them all, to not even get a level 6 power stone?”
Immediately, Dame could feel the pain. How could someone even attempt to do such a thing? Maybe those that had an addiction to gambling would give it a go, but those stones would be a big plus to most clans.
Once the stones were done, Raze laid out the items he had received from the Auction that had a good affinity with magic.
There was a red necklace, a pair of golden egg-shaped earrings, and a pair of black gloves as well.
‘I’m a 3-star mage currently, who knows his fair share of 3-star enchantments. I also currently have four different types of magic. Dark, Wind, Ice, and Lightning. The strength of the attribute doesn’t matter when making enchantments.
‘However, a mage would need a type of attribute to make certain types of enchantments. With the level 3 power stones, the item’s grade will be at the Rare or Elite level, unless I use Dark Magic, but I feel like that will be too much of a risk, and the enchantment sometimes will be random in the first place.
‘What would be best is to use an enchantment that would suit and help out all three of them when needed.’
It took a while for Raze to think of something, and in the end, he even opened up the special book he had received, the book which included ice spells inside; it also contained a few enchantments as well.
After giving it a read, Raze got to work as he created the items and enchanted them one by one. First, he had enchanted the red necklace with the crystals; after that, the pair of golden earrings, and lastly, having referenced the book of spells, he drew a circle and enchanted the pair of black gloves.
After seeing the effects of each of the items, Raze was quite pleased with the results, as everything went well; now he just needed to hand the items over to each person.
“For Safa, I give you this red necklace,” Raze stated, and then moved onto Liam. “For you, the pair of earrings.”
Liam took them in his hand; they felt no different from regular earrings, and he wasn’t so sure they were able to do something, but that’s when another thought came to his mind.
“Hey, hey, wait a second. I don’t even have my ears pierced!” Liam shouted. “And, am I meant to wear these large dangly things at all times!”
“I’ll happily take them off from you, well if I didn’t already have one of my ears taken already,” Simyon stated.
Hearing this, Liam pulled the earrings away. He couldn’t wear them now, but he would have to after getting his ears pierced. The design of having two large eggs on his ears didn’t sit well with him, leaving him to let out a big sigh.
“Eye patch kid, golden egg boy, perv, the man with the big balls. I can just imagine all the nicknames people will give me with these,” Liam sighed.
“Hey, I think that last nickname you gave yourself, no one calls you big balls. Maybe the red-headed idiot,” Simyon commented.
“And for you, Simyon, the pair of gloves,” Raze handed them over and moved back to his position.
“All of these items are now enchanted with magic and will allow you to do incredible things. But when using them, for some of you, it will be obvious that it is not part of your Pagna martial arts. So you need to use them with caution.”
Raze went on to tell all three of them what the items could do, and after hearing that, no one was disappointed with the results. Instead, they were trying to think of ways they could utilize them and strengthen their martial arts even further.
“Hey, won’t it be a good idea if we were to use these items before getting in a fight?” Simyon suggested. “That way, we can really use them to their fullest if we need to, rather than trying to figure it out.”
Raze did agree; the issue was others seeing them.
“I know an area where they can go,” Dame answered. “An area that will be away from the eyes of others, and besides, it wouldn’t be training if they didn’t have an opponent to go against. I’ll do that while you create the rest of the supplies needed. Remember, we need supplies for ourselves, the Crimson Crane, and then equipment to sell.”
Raze wasn’t worried about that. With his new technique, he could mass-produce Qi pills as long as he had all the relevant materials, and he did, so it wouldn’t take a long time like before.
But this did give him the opportunity.
“I think it’s a great idea,” Raze said.
While the others were away, Raze wanted to head back to the cave where they had first appeared, and he would look into the metal block that once belonged to the Dark Faction founder.
