Chapter 327 – Improvements
If Chaos can absorb the telekinesis ring, then it can also be an Explosion Staff…
Telekinesis Ring and Explosion Staff.
The Explosion Cane has the downside of being able to hunt alone or use it only in open areas in the aftermath of its explosive power.
It’s for mass killing.
How many times am I going to do mass killings?
As a result, the telekinesis ring was an overwhelming advantage in terms of utilization.
However, the Explosion Wand is more expensive than the Ring.
Is it some kind of material cost?
I briefly thought about letting Chaos absorb the Explosion staff, but apart from its usefulness, the staff was a more expensive item, so I decided to use a telekinesis ring for now.
If the telekinesis ring goes wrong, wouldn’t it be better to sell the staff to get it?
There are two archmages to trade with… It won’t be difficult to get another ring of telekinesis.
If something went wrong, they decided to make a deal with Verna instead of Liliana.
Monopoly deals are not good.
And Verna, who was more polite than Liliana, was getting a good evaluation score from me these days.
Liliana’s evaluation score was greatly reduced due to Christina’s work.
The telekinesis ring was absorbed into the gauntlet.
《Master, thank you for trusting me.》
I just hoped that Chaos would succeed and show satisfactory results.
A golden pattern that glows softly is engraved on the white silver gauntlet.
Of course I don’t know what that means.
《The artifact has been absorbed.》
《Analysis of the magic engraved on the ring.》
《Psychokinesis.》
“Master. From now on, you can use Chaos Kinesis.》
It seems the name of the magic has changed…
Anyway, it’s time to experiment.
I channeled magic into the gauntlet.
《Chaos kinesis activated.》
The chaos of entering commands one by one was a bit… Annoying, but I decided to put up with it.
A glow emanates from the patterns engraved on the gauntlet, and a nearby sofa rises into the air.
“Hmm? This is… Amazing. Is that gauntlet using magic by absorbing the ring I gave you?”
Liliana’s eyes twinkle when she sees me using telekinesis.
Absorbing artifacts and using magic, I finally started to develop decent abilities that I liked.
《Was the artifact created by that rude wizard? I fully understand that Master was not satisfied.”
Chaos seemed to develop animosity towards Liliana.
Of course, I couldn’t be satisfied with just being able to use telekinesis.
The telekinesis ring Liliana gave me couldn’t fully handle my power… And I’ve only used it with limited power.
It was strong enough to lightly lift a tank or car with that alone, but…
It was a bit unreasonable to use it in battle with the transcendental monsters I was dealing with.
It can be seen that it was useful in real life rather than combat.
After the telekinesis ring was absorbed by Chaos, it was necessary to check whether it was not an upgrade, but a downgrade or a sidegrade.
For the performance test, I materialized and created a fist-sized black marble with magical power.
It is just a hard magic orb.
“…Why did you make that?”
Seeing my behavior, Verna asked curiously.
“To destroy it with telekinesis.”
“Breaking it? Wouldn’t it be easy to simply use artifacts to break something comparable to an Auror blade… No, even stronger than that, with psychokinetic power? Isn’t it just breaking and eating a precious artifact?”
Liliana, who knew how hard the beads I made with magic were, was negative.
Maybe she’s worried that the chaos she covets will be crushed.
《The words of the quack wizard cannot be trusted. Do not worry. Master. If it were me, I would be able to handle the master’s strength.”
Chaos was confident.
I wish I did too.
If Chaos succeeds in fully enduring my power, that alone was enough to make it worth owning Chaos.
《Chaos kinesis activated.》
– Deed deed…
With the command of Chaos, I lifted the black orb I made into the air and started applying strong pressure with telekinesis.
-Deud deuk…
Objects in the drawing room come to mind.
As a huge power came into the black marble, it began to affect the surroundings as well.
“No, what… Telekinesis…”
Verna put on a tired expression, perhaps feeling the strong telekinesis applied to the black orb.
“…You’re using real mana ignorantly.”
Liliana doesn’t seem to like the way I use my magic.
I applied considerable pressure with telekinesis, but the magic orb I made did not budge.
The durability of the previous telekinesis ring was already surpassed a long time ago. Fortunately, it has been confirmed that Chaos artifact absorption is an upgrade.
Even so, the magic orb I made doesn’t think about breaking.
I made it, but it’s so damn hard.
That wasn’t the only advantage.
I gradually poured more mana into my telekinesis.
– Awesome…
There was a crackling sound.
However, it was not a magic orb I made, but a gauntlet.
《Hihi!! Eh, Master…I’m going to break! It’s broken!!》
Chaos’ desperate cry.
I stopped pouring mana into telekinesis.
《Didn’t you say you could hold on?》
“Sorry, sorry. Master. It seems I underestimated the Master’s abilities. It was my miscalculation. But don’t worry. Surprisingly, I have an automatic repair function.”
It was a pleasant sound to hear.
I couldn’t use the telekinesis ring carelessly because I was afraid it would break…
It was said that Chaos could be restored even if it was a little overbearing.
I’m starting to like Chaos more and more.
I could see the cracked gauntlet slowly being restored, just like Chaos said.
In the end, even Chaos couldn’t fully withstand my magical power… But it showed durability many times stronger than Liliana’s ring.
“Sorry. Master. However, we have come up with a solution with the data we just had.”
“Already? It’s amazing.”
Chaos surprised me for the first time.
《Huh… Now it seems like you are slowly recognizing my true value. If I add the Master’s magical power to my durability, I will be able to activate a more powerful Chaos Kinesis.”
Chaos seemed to be getting a little cocky.
As Chaos said, this time I tried using telekinesis while using my magical power to supplement the durability of the gauntlet.
– Awesome!! Crisp!!
This time, the magic orb was shattered.
The downside… Is that once you cross a certain critical point, it takes twice as much magic power.
The critical point is probably the durability of the gauntlet.
I was able to see the amount of magic power consumed so that the gauntlet would not break and experience how much the excessively injected power was a burden on the artifact.
《It consumes more mana than I thought.》
《Master, it is a matter of time before that shortcoming is resolved. If I grow up, my durability will be strengthened, and then the Master’s magic consumption will be significantly reduced.”
It reminded me of what Terra said was a growth type equipment. With this level of performance already, I was looking forward to the future.
I was satisfied with the fact that I had the equipment to fully utilize my power.
Chaos now looks like a proper artifact.
“Liliana’s defective ring is finally reborn.”
“You’re right. I proved that I am superior to that quack wizard.”
“Because it’s not defective!”
Ignoring Liliana’s exasperation, I pulled out her ex-explosion wand from my inventory.
Verna is startled when she sees the cane I took out.
“Hmm? Why?”
“Ah, no…Haha…The wand looks a bit familiar…Don’t mind it.”
Verna hesitated.
This staff was stolen from a high-ranking wizard and remodeled.
Since she is also the country’s archmage, she might be familiar with the owner of her wand.
I still have no intention of returning it…
“Chaos. Can this staff absorb it too?”
“Of course it’s possible. Master.”
That means soon.
It means that the ability of my Explosion cane will also be upgraded.
Performance is upgraded just by absorbing magic items.
It was an amazing feature.
If I continue to absorb artifacts like this, wouldn’t I be able to use all magic?
“Master. I’m sorry… Absorption of unlimited Artifact abilities is not possible. Of course, it is possible to remove existing functions and add new ones.》
《…Sorry…Were there any restrictions after all?》
“Master. Don’t be disappointed. If I grow up, there will be more abilities available to me.”
It also means that growth is key.
《How do you grow up?》
《The main materials for my growth are magic stones and metal.》
It was pass.
I decided not to return Chaos.
My hands were itching when the good equipment came in.
It was natural to want to experiment with actual performance.
“Bright, I heard you’re helping us track down the warlock…”
Hearing my words, Bright took out a compass from the subspace.
“That?”
“It’s an artifact that points to the nearest Magi created by Tio.”
Now that my detection ability has shrunk terribly… That alone was detectable.
The compass went round and round and pointed in one direction.
“The direction is… East…”
If it’s east…
“His Holiness, is this?!”
It also matched the direction of the suspicious clues Judith had been investigating.
