Chapter 45 Artifacts Shopping
Going inside the mall, I would say that this place was the most exaggerated-looking place I had ever seen. Everything here looked expensive. The floors, walls, and roofs were made of ores/crystals. With the size of the mall, I wouldn't be surprised if the building material cost billions in terms of credit.
Is that how the academy flaunts its riches? I personally think that was overkill. Olivia was speechless seeing this place. Her mouth was wide open, unable to close. She was too afraid to step inside, intimidated by how expensive this place was.
"Olivia, I may agree that this place is overkill, but we just can't stand here all day." I held her hand while walking around the mall. Some people were looking at us, amused by our reactions. I guess some of them enjoyed looking at newcomers coming here.
Holding Olivia's hand, we walked around the mall. Different kinds of services can be seen here. Although many high-quality food stores were sold here, they also had a game store that would quickly drain someone's credit if they weren't careful enough.
Finding a store that had artifacts in it, we went in. The store had many different kinds of artifacts, from accessories to armor to weapons. Should I get a weapon that could enchant my attack?
"Olivia, which accessories would you like to check out first?" I didn't know what she wanted to see at first, so I asked for her thoughts on the matter.
"Could we... check the ring section?" She shyly said.
I smiled, amused by her request. "Sure! Let's check them all." Going to the section where they should have the rings, we could see a decent amount of them.
The store itself had covered the artifacts in glass panels. We could read the artifact's effects written on the side of the panel.
Olivia and I then checked around, having to see everything. There were only three rings compatible with Olivia. The first ring was a ring made of violet-colored metal, with a dark blue gem in the middle. The artifact gave the ability to increase the effect of any spell by ten percent. So it was a ring that could increase anything. While the increase wasn't much, it was accessible to everyone.
The second ring was a diamond-looking ring with a purple gem on top of it. The artifact gave anyone who wore it forty percent power to increase their ability to heal. This one was much better than the first one, but this one was limited to just healing.
And finally, the third ring was a blue ring with a sapphire-like gem. It could recover mana by fifty percent. With this, she could use her ability more.
"Which of the three would you prefer? Their prices are lower than I thought they would be." I thought there would be something better here. We would've had to check a better store if we wanted one.
"I'm not sure which to pick!" She was pretty indecisive when deciding which to choose. There were many options to choose from, but I couldn't pressure her to pick something she didn't want.
"If you want, we could check other stores. There could be better pieces of artifacts in other places." So I gave Olivia a suggestion to see if she could check the other options that she could get.
"Let's do that." Olivia held my hand, walking out of the store. Checking multiple stores, we found five great choices that would help Olivia.
The first ring is called Ring Of Assistance which has a silver base and a red circle gem in the middle of it. It allowed any buff to be increased by fifty percent, significantly boosting anyone.
The second ring we found is called Cobra's Poisonous Ring, which could shoot poison depending on how much mana you spend using it. The look of the ring was pretty creepy. The base of the ring was green, scaly, and had a snake-looking eye on top of it. This would help her protect herself, but I doubt she would want it.
The third ring that I found interesting was the Soft Teleportation ring. It was pretty good for people that wanted to stay safe. The ring allowed anyone to teleport three meters every thirty seconds.
The fourth ring is called the Ring of Petrifaction. It was rocky, which looked like a pain to use. It froze anyone that looked at the user's eyes. It was good if Olivia was stronger. Maybe I should get it since my mana capacity was higher.
And finally, the fifth ring, Devil's Luck. The ring was a black ring that was solely black. It increases a person's luck by fifty percent, and it was illegal to use for casinos or any gambling areas.
"Have you decided which ring you would pick?" There were two rings I knew that Olivia would choose, I didn't mind if we got two for her, but that was her choice in the matter.
"I would like to get this ring!" She pointed at it, and I fully supported her choice, so we purchased it. The cost of it was seven thousand. Using all her credits combined with mine left me with five thousand and two hundred. It wasn't that bad, honestly.
Putting the ring on her ring finger, she smiled shyly. "Is there something wrong?" I didn't understand why she was red, so I asked. She shook her head, saying that she was okay.
Since we came all the way here, I might as well get something that I found helpful for me. I bought a rank two fire sword that increased my damage by ten percent. Paying five thousand, I had two hundred credits left. I lost all my credits in one session. I would've to spend more time in the dungeon next time.
With all that said and done, we decided to go to a restaurant to try out new foods that she could conquer in the future.
