"Ragna, don't crops or food go bad if left in dimensional artifacts for too long?" Blake asked that question out of simple curiosity after seeing what Ragna was doing.
"Of course, brother Blake. Although the artifacts that have the ability to store other objects thanks to spatial magic do so because a small space apart from ours is generated, time still affects those objects." Ragna explained carefully as he remembered Blake's memory loss. "But besides their storage capacity, the dimensional sacks and bags make the objects inside them unaffected by the temperatures outside, even if they are hit, the objects inside will not be damaged, which is why they are incredibly useful."
"Hmm... I heard about artifacts that can store more things compared to the sacks we use, isn't there something else special about them?" Blake felt interested in the explanation, so he wanted to dig a little deeper since Ragna seemed to know a bit about it.
"Actually they don't differ much apart from having a bigger space to store things, but I have been able to see artifacts with interesting characteristics, although they all fulfill the basic functions, store objects, protect them and be able to link with you." Ragna concentrated on everything that he remembered in case he had forgotten something, but that was all he thought would be enough for Blake.
"Link?" But it seemed that Blake had a new question and, seeing this, Ragna was quick to answer his new question.
"By that I mean the fact that dimensional artifacts can create a connection with you if you pour your runic energy into them, this is like a kind of seal since only you will be able to put objects in and out of it, this is of great help in case someone steals from you or you just lose your bag or sack, it's really difficult to remove this kind of seal, but that doesn't mean it's impossible." Ragna explained everything carefully while Blake listened attentively, Ragna even thought it would be It was amazing if he could explain the entire process of how dimensional artifacts work to Blake, but his knowledge was very basic.
That was quite interesting, but at the same time, even though Blake remembered that Marjorie had given him a dimensional sack to go unnoticed, he felt that none of it would really help him since his inventory was several times better. It seemed to have infinite space, and Blake didn't know if it was because of his affinity with time or if it was something the system did, but food or things that could go bad over time hadn't been affected in any way, though maybe he would try to test it a bit more in the future.
"Another thing you should know is that you can't store living creatures, and you might remember the Runeys I showed you, but they don't exactly fall into that category." Ragna felt it was necessary to mention that as it might create some further doubt for Blake.
"I see... I only asked that question since I've seen you take out different vegetables and food, so I had my doubts." Blake thanked Ragna for taking the time to tell him all of that.
"No problem, brother Blake. If you're interested, the reason why the vegetables I have with me haven't withered is that they have a fairly decent amount of runic energy, so they can last longer than the common ones." Ragna had gone back to what he was about to do before Blake caught his attention.
Blake was not surprised by the reason for that, although runic energy was still something unique and mysterious, his knowledge had advanced by leaps and bounds since he had arrived in town. He still had a lot to learn, but Blake felt that he could defend himself with the knowledge he possessed at the moment.
In the end, Ragna prepared a couple of plates where you could see a lot of sliced turnips garnished perfectly, he handed one of the plates to Blake and he couldn't refuse it even though it wasn't necessary, but Blake was surprised by the good taste it had in addition to the voice of the system that told him the benefits of the dish.
…
…
Both Blake and Ragna had left the Sharance tree after their little breakfast, Blake had planned to take Ragna with him in the direction of the bulletin board and pick out some requests, but the mailbox on the side of the door, especially the letter that loomed, it was enough to draw his attention and he took it.
{Come with me…
Client: Shara
I want to show you something!}
As most of the time, the information in the letter didn't explain much, but since he could hear the voice of the system, Blake knew that it was a request.
Blake didn't think too much about it and simply nodded, he preferred to fulfill the requests that were addressed directly to him since they might be urgent. Ragna realized all this so Blake later explained that this was also a way to accept requests before finally taking it to the bulletin board in the middle of town.
As they continued on their way, it was inevitable that they would see the decorations that adorned the exterior. The colors filled the streets, in addition to a greater number of tourists walking through them.
It seemed like there weren't every hawker stall this time, and from what Blake knew, most of the people were probably on their way to the town square.
Blake and Ragna weren't too distracted by that, so now they could both see the requests pinned to the huge wooden board waiting for someone to take care of all of them.
"Wow! There are too many, can I do them all, brother Blake?" Blake was about to answer him, but he realized he didn't know that either. Normally, Blake always did only one bulletin board request a day, so he hadn't tried doing more of them, but before he could say anything, a cheerful voice reached their ears at that precise moment.
