227 Kings Luck (1/2)

---

”T-these are…”

Raven was stunned to see the scattered items in the table.

The King showed him five things that radiates with great ancientness. He approached one and held it.

The first item is a circular stone. It has a smooth and shiny surface which also radiated with a maroon glow. There is a carving on the top which depicts an arm piece, a fleece to be exact. Raven's eyes shone in splendor as he held it.

”This one is a Spiritual Memory Stone.” He stated, ”A treasure that is used during the Golden Sun Era. These stones are used to keep a valuable object within. The stone will grow large and engulf the said item and shrink down, causing the item to be stored inside, a carving will then emerge on it's surface, depicting what item is stored inside. These stones are used for things that cannot be stored within spatial rings since the rock itself could be stored inside.

”It's also no use for someone to steal this since owners of these stones will leave their Spiritual Marks in the stone, enabling only it's owner to access what's inside. That being said, these stones as well as the items inside will become ownerless once the holder died.” Raven explained.

Alexander's eyes brightened and said: ”It's ownerless now right?”

”Yes, Uncle.” Raven cleared his throat after that, thinking 'It still feels weird to call him that..'

”Can you take out what's inside?”

Raven nodded and channeled his Chaos Force into the stone. Typically, one has to use Spiritual Energies to activate the stone but his Chaos Force is the unity of three energies: Vital, Essence and Spiritual, which enabled him to use this.

The stone expanded to a size of a boulder, after it stopped expanding it then broke in half and revealed a beautiful golden fleece that was kept in a pristine condition, not even a speck of dust or dirt was present on it's surface.

Raven held the fleece and took a sharp breath in. He then spoke with a ragged breath. ”Fleece of the Sun God.”

”Oh?” Alexander was intrigued.

”This is a growth-class treasure, Uncle.” Raven said, ”The Fleece of the Sun God has two traits which makes it useful. Redirect and Reflect. If any attack landed on the fleece, it allows you to redirect it to somewhere else or send the same attack to it's user with twice the impact and power. Since it's a growth-class treasure, the amount of times you can use this depend on your strength.” He then passed the fleece towards the King.

Alexander's eyes were shining as he held the fleece. 'What a phenomenal treasure!' He thought inwardly. He praised his luck for finding such a valuable, these kinds of equipment are something that no amount of money can buy. The abilities of the fleece are life saving chances, thankfully Raven was here and knows what this is.

He looked back at the young man in front of him and saw him not even paying attention to the fleece anymore. Instead, he was looking at the second item in the table which made Alexander smile wryly.

The second item is an old blueprint. It was slightly faded and written in an old language. Nevertheless, that wasn't enough to stop Raven from deciphering it's contents. After a while of brainstorming, he found out it's contents and became immediately ecstatic.

”A great find! Truly a great find!” Raven exclaimed in glee, ”It's a complete blueprint for a Construct, Uncle!”

”A Construct?” Alexander repeated, clearly clueless about the item.

”How to explain this…” Raven pondered for a bit before an idea struck his mind. ”Imagine a smaller Little Stone Titan, driven by a human inside. That would be a Construct.”

The King isn't a fool. He could already understand what this entails, so his expression was slowly lightening up.

”This particular Blueprint shows how to create a Worker Construct. These Constructs have no offensive power, but they are particularly equipped for challenging tasks. Building or repairing walls, digging for an underground tunnel, complex construction projects, these things shines in that.”

”It says here that we have an option to make the Constructs out of Stone or Steel. There is an array formation in here which is used to control the construct, it's not hard to understand the array itself, with enough time even beginners could learn how to drive one. We also have to construct the molds for the parts of the Construct and fuse them together. We have a lot of blacksmiths in need of projects so this is suitable for them.”

After he explained, Raven once again handed the Blueprint to the King along with his own translations for it. Once again, the King was awed. He couldn't believe that his luck was this good.
