"Ring of Dragons " °•○●
A big mess broke out in the Clan Mansion. There had been a grand theft in four of the clan's main warehouses. When the sun was just beginning to rise, the entire Gan Clan awoke to learn that the orders of the city's greatest powers had been stolen. They couldn't understand how this happened, especially in places with the tightest security.
The guards didn't know anything. But the strangest thing was that the guards had huge gaps in their memory. So no one was sure of anything. But one thing was certain. The moment the thief was caught, s/he would be torn to pieces and hung on the walls of the mansion.
Meanwhile, a nine-year-old little boy sitting in the woods at the back of the Clan sighed, looking at the ring he was wearing on his finger.
He hadn't discovered any of his extra features when he wore the ring last night.
But then things got crazy.
..
Last Night
After crying for a while longer, luckily, the energy in his body began to boil over with Ren's shouts. Meanwhile, a tiny amount of energy emanating from Ren's body splashed down to the ring on his finger.
As the energy came into contact with the ring, it began to absorb the energy like a vacuum. Being a level one mage with only a tiny bit of energy, Ren was a little panicked. But after the ring had drained all the energy the boy had accumulated, it stopped. Although that was also a disappointment to Ren, he was still glad that he wasn't dead.
Meditating for a few seconds to take deep breaths and get rid of the bad feeling of having an empty dantian, Ren finally wanted to open her eyes and look at the ring.
After the event he sat to his bed. But just Ren was thinking nothing could surprise him anymore, he realized that the ring wasn't on his finger.
A fake imaginary father. An imaginary life. An imaginary Clan. An imaginary ring... Well, you got it.
Even though the ring was gone, Ren saw a tiny black dot appear on his index finger, the size of a dot. Because the weirdness was that he still felt like the ring was on his finger. Instead of just being visible, it was camouflaging itself with the illusion of a small tattoo.
Since a simple ring wouldn't have such a beautiful function, Ren admitted that the ring was indeed valuable. Maybe he shouldn't have made fun of Nuren so much.
There was a meditation position he learned from Nuren. The woman had told Ren that meditation was a good tool to help her become more aware of her body and surroundings. Now Ren understood why. The joking woman had shown the method to use the ring in a more indirect way, rather than bluntly. All for the ring.
He got up from his bed and sat in a spot that was directly in contact with the ground. Ren closed his eyes again and calmed his mind. He began to draw energy from the environment. He continued to draw energy for the next twenty minutes as he had no energy left to use because of the ring. When the first twenty minutes of energy meditation came to an end, he paused for a few minutes.
Then he closed his eyes again. He began channeling the still unprocessed wild energy he had drawn around to circulate throughout his body. He dispersed it all over his body so that there was some energy in every part. And while he was full of wild energy exept dantian region, he began to breathe to draw even more energy from the outside.
Huuuu (breathing deep ...in and out..)
After a while, there was too much energy in Ren's body that he started to feel dizzy and high. His mind was able to zoom in on different parts of his body with the impression that it could move within his body. He focused on the ring without wasting any time. And with this thought, his mind moved in that direction, and he examined the ring more closely.
The ring, which he thought was simple, was now shining brightly. It was so bright that if he didn't avert his eyes a little, he couldn't quite look at it. As he got closer to the ring, albeit with some difficulty, a sound began to be heard. It was a gentle chant that needed to be heard in the background but was not compelling. Ren felt that he had heard that voice with his mind, not his ears.
And finally he diverted his mind to get inside the ring. But..
A harsh energy emanating from the ring stopped Ren. So much so that it didn't just stop Ren's mind from moving, it also froze it so that he couldn't move at all!
Seeing different inscriptions around the ring, Ren wasn't too surprised. Finally, he understood firsthand what a special item Nuren had given him. Although he was a little scared, he actually remembered the smiling face of the woman with a rising warmth in his heart.
At the same time, he memorized the warning signs and words written on the ring.
*...dragon.S.eyes (D.S.)...
The Third of the Seven Ancient Weapons of the Ancient Dragon Lineage!*
The number of words increased rapidly as Ren struggled to pull his mind back.
No matter how hard Ren tried, he couldn't pull back.
"You're a small human HA! If you want to dominate this weapon, give it power. It will give you abilities that no one in the universe can imagine. Let it repel armies. Destroy planets! SLAY the Immortals! CHALLENGE THE GODS!
....Leave yourself to him....to me...to us....!...
Let your soul be one of us.
Let us recreate you with dragon art!
Do you want to be one of us, O Human?"
Ren was about to pee at that moment. Even the magical shouting of his mother, who had left the house an hour ago, could not come close to the strength of the voice coming from this ring. The amount of energy and power this voice emitted with each speech was so great that Ren had to say yes like a puppet. Since the boy was not strong enough to make his voice in this place, only his mouth moved. But the owner of the voice snorted contentedly, as if he understood.
"You have become the guardian of one of the Ancient Weapons, the Dragon Eye D.S., human!"
In an instant, the frightening pincer that engulfed his entire soul disappeared. He even slowly faded in the barrier around the ring. He was suddenly drawn into the ring before Ren had time to drive his spirit away.
The inside of the ring was just like a small room. But it was also very similar to the Cube, the Auriel family mansion.
"We have shaped this place according to the image of your favorite place from your memory."
This time it was a woman's voice. It was the first time Ren had heard that voice as well. But the power of this woman's words was not inferior to the man before. Ren tried very hard to ensure that his spiritual presence, which had formed in that place, would not be destroyed by the pressure.
"Right now, there's only one function in this weapon that you can use. It's something that has already been done with human technology. "Space Storage of Storage Stones."
Ren nodded, not having the strength to make any noise. The sound continued.
"But there are differences between the level of this ancient weapon and the technology that even humans copied. The first extra feature: an ability that allows you to feel what you have stored if you have enough energy. The other is to be able to understand what even the substances that are in the outside world are.
For example, if you are strong enough, you can figure out the names and powers of the legendary ancient weapons used by your enemies!
If you become a "Zifu" then the number of abilities this weapon will give you will be multiplied. But for now, you'll get by with that storage space and two extra skills. Go back now!"
Ren swallowed a ton of questions in his mind, pulling his mind back to its normal place to go back. He had not expected that he could make such a clear mental journey. But after all, how simple can a technique that Nuren teaches be?"
Because Ren made the deal, the black dot that was tattooed on the ring changed. He now had a cool, jet-black ring mark covering his entire index finger.
He took a plate from the kitchen that he wouldn't be upset if it broke. He didn't know what to do, so he had to try several times, but when he finally found the feeling, he was able to use the basic feature of the ring.
The plate was gone! It was on his hand than it vanished like magic.
Ren did not expect the vanishing plate to be stored so quickly. The head of the Gan Clan, Monk, also had several such rings or belts. They used these rings to be safe when making very important deliveries. But the largest storage area of the clan's rings was only 5 square meters. They also gave one to his mother at one time. But it was taken back because it was needed later.
When Ren suddenly remembered everything that night, he thought of everything he would need if he was going to run away from home. "Food, tents, durable clothing, fuel and long-term essentials. Money."
