Astaroth exploded in laughter. Phoenix wasn't usually the type to have overreactions of the sort, be he understood that one.
After laughing for a few seconds, much to the displeasure of his girlfriend, he wiped away some small tears forming at the corner of his eyes.
"I'll let you two girls decide how we should use or dispatch these things. I still have something to do today."
Both Athena and Phoenix nodded in approbation, as Astaroth left the room, storing the storage ring in his inventory. He could have worn it, but he preferred not to.
If anything happened, the ring would be secure in his inventory. Wearing it exposed him to the hands of an expert pickpocket or thief.
He would rather not have the precious item stolen.
Reaching a staircase that went up a floor in the tree structure, Astaroth climbed it. The floor he reached was one with a large central corridor that did a full circle inside the tree.
