Chapter 12: Reen (2/2)
Eren was rankless so he couldn’t detect the mana in the environment yet Neither could he differentiate between the mana types to know about the MB stone’s rank
But Eren was still happy after seeing the size of that stone Even though it looks shpromotion with at least twice the speed when compared with people who didn’t have the MB stone and took the sah he couldn’t identify the stone’s rank himself, he had someone else do it for him Eren asked which rank’s MB stone it was to Reen He had to explain the ranks and their differences to Reen before she could answer it
The MB stone in his hand was a D Rank one, the sae of being in that dense enerated by the stone to proement, Eren felt happy and sad at the same time Happy because the value of a D Rank surpassed that of Rank Es and Rak Fs Sad because he couldn’t use it for hi for his iht away, he would keep it to himself for future use and would not sell it Because he kne rare they were to find for hu stones were natural treasures of the world Therefore, her chance of finding them than humans That’s because the beasts were better attuned to nature than humans ever could
This created a perpetual scarcity of MB stones in thestones would require soe amount of money The size of the stone would further make the prices dynamic
And the scarcity and price wars only increased exponentially with each rank up There were also soh the market which were the products of alchemists
That’s why it was better if Eren saved this genuine D Rank MB stone and use it after his promotion into the respective rank Eren decided that his business was over in the forest Noould get out of the forest with Reen in his tow
Eren would be fine ht because the leader of the forest ith hiuess his way forward
But just when he decided to get up from the spot, Reen asked hiht it was a little weird question to ask but he answered affirmatively to Reen Her curiosity knew no bounds Maybe it was just soht, Eren concluded
But Reen conveyed that she knew the locations of such stones in the forest She told hi useful to her since her current evolution That
This was very unnatural for even a demon beast to know the locations of so many MB stones Eren concluded that Reen was a special case She could detect the softest ripples of mana in the environment Therefore she could track those natural treasures
Usually, the beasts had to come in the proximity of such treasures to find the to zero in on the treasures
The same proximity requirement was placed on humans, only its restrictions were harsher If a typical beast needed to be within 10 meters distance to sense the presence of the treasure, a typical human needed to be within 1 meter to achieve the same
Eren now understood why Do a D Rank MB stone in the cave Yes, the stone was precious for rank ups and held great monetary value
But the real problem lied elsewhere!
