By the time Vincent was done with creating fireball magic scrolls, it was already midnight. Honestly, he could've been done with it in merely two hours but he was limited by his magic power capacity and regeneration rates. Anyway, he was happy as he had created three magic scrolls proving that his success rate in creating fireball magic scrolls has reached a hundred percent.
"It's already midnight. I still need to pack my stuff. After all, I won't get the chance to pack after a good night's sleep as the entrance examination of the military academy will be held early in the morning tomorrow." Vincent said, "I need to first become the owner of this ring so that I can store my items in a more secure place."
Vincent opened the metallic ring box before he took out the user manual and the black serpent ring. He then proceeded to read the user manual. It explained how to bind the storage device to oneself. Binding works in the same way as a smartphone screen lock. Except for him, no one else will be able to access the storage device of the ring.
He placed the user manual on the table after reading all of its content. Then he picked up the ring and brought it close to his face. The black serpent ring like its name was black in color and inscription patterns of the same color were inscribed all over it, and it was in the shape of a coiled snake.
‹ Black Serpent Ring ›
‹ Storage: 0/100 ›
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt‹ Status: Ownerless ›
‹ Usage: The owner will become the owner of this storage device once you pour magic power into it till you are bound with the storage ring and gain ownership over it. Once you gain ownership over the ring, the owner will be able to retrieve the items inside by using his magic power ›
‹ Pros: An esoteric ring with a subspace inside it. The owner can store items in this ring by using the storage screen. The owner can retrieve items inside of this ring with a mere thought ›
‹ Cons: Only a single item can be retrieved from the ring every 5 seconds. The storage space is limited. It can only carry 3 tons worth of items. Can be destroyed ›
The size and weight that this storage device could contain might be limited. Nonetheless, Vincent considered it to be a treasure as it was capable of storing items.
"Let's follow the instructions mentioned in the user's manual and finish the two-step verification first," Vincent thought as he breathed into the ring. The ring glowed ring before changing to green. After that, he poured twenty units of magic power into the black serpent ring. Vincent felt that he has established a mystical connection with the ring as it absorbed his magic power.
The two-step verification added an extra layer to his storage device in case it gets stolen. Now that he has set up 2-Step Verification, he can access the storage screen only by using his breath. Similarly, the only way to take items from inside the storage device was by using his magic power. Naturally, he can update this information as he likes later on.
Now it was time to start packing.
"Open storage screen!" Vincent commanded by breathing into the ring.
As soon as he said those words, a semi-transparent screen popped up in front of his vision. The storage screen was similar to the inventory of any game.
The storage screen showed a hundred boxes and an item could be stored in each one of them. He could expand the storage space, but that would require a lot of resources and cash. Though for now, a hundred slots for storing items were more than enough for him.
Vincent wasn't much of a materialistic person and he didn't have a lot of things. He started to store his belonging in the storage device. He only needed to touch the storage screen with an item he wants to store and it was stored in the inventory.
A few minutes passed by as he stored the portrait of his parents, some clothes, beast weapons, three fireball magic scrolls, a few thousand federations cash, and the hundred pieces of low-level magic stones that he earned by completing the adventure association mission into his black serpent ring.
"Thankfully, cash and small items like magic stones can be stored in a single slot in larger quantities. To store a hundred pieces of magic stones only three slots were used," Vincent said as he looked at the first thirty slots of the storage device that were occupied, but the remaining seventy slots could still be used as he hasn't met the maximum weight limit.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmEverything he needed has been packed in the ring that he wore on the index finger of his right hand. Only a half-empty vial of the elemental heart blood of a fire-type beast was left on his study table.
"Let's drink it," Vincent thought as he used his special ability to purified the beast's blood. Then, he opened the lid of the vial and poured the delicious content inside of it into his mouth.
The blood sweetened his mouth but also tingled his tongue with a burst of spiciness as it went down his throat.
‹ Your Strength has increased to 49 points ›
‹ You've gained 3.33% percent of fire-ability cells.
‹ Ability Cells in progress: 3.33/100 % ›
‹ The owner will awaken as a fire ability user once the progression rate reached 100% ›
Vincent's eyes opened wide in surprise and his mouth gaped as he stared at the notifications with a fervent look of excitement.
"Everyone needs to consume evolution material to gain ability cells. In contrast, I can gain ability cells by drinking the purified version of the elemental heart blood of beasts." Vincent's lips thinned into a smile. "Furthermore, the cost of blood is far cheaper when compared to evolution materials. In the future, I can sell evolution material at a good price, using what I earned to purchase beast's blood. This way, not only will I keep my addiction and hunger in check, but I'll also produce ability cells."
In the morning, the street near the glistening Cloud Tower was bustling with people as the entrance examination of the military academy was going to begin soon. One could see many youngsters, ranging from fifteen to seventeen years of age gathering in front of booths, where the first assessment of the entrance examination is going to be held.
