Chapter 124 Picking Treasures (1/2)

As Lord Sevaril showed Arran the rest of his treasures, thehe was once h heabout his riches brought him at least some comfort

Arran, on the other hand, found hih there were plenty of them, few seemed to have any useful powers

There was a staff that could create Force shi+elds with the user's Essence, but the shi+elds eaker than those Arran could produce hireen rod that could heal injuries, but when Lord Sevaril bragged that it could heal a broken bone in days, Arran knew his own Body Refineht he had found so truly useful, soon after there followed an inevitable downside that negated much of the item's value

Most of the itele specific type, and then used that to for to cast it hies could cast spells they did not know, using kinds of Essence they did not possess

Yet ih this sounded, the power of the ite at best The effects all seean to suspect that most of the Essence was lost when the items converted it

In the end, only two of the iteht Arran's attention

The first of these was a black armored coat, which Lord Sevaril said could withstand all but the strongest h Arran suspected this was an exaggeration — the— he also suspected it wasn'tabout the coat e out of the ordinary in it

The second ite that Lord Sevaril called a Duskcloak — a cloak that would render its wearer invisible if Essence was channeled into it

Arran suspected that it created some version of the Shadowcloak spell, albeit with a predictably weaker effect — where Arran had witnessed a , the Duskcloak's effect required its user to stay in place

Still, after soh the effect was li that would certainly be useful on his travels — soht even save his life if he found himself pursued by more powerful opponents

But more importantly, when he tested the cloak for hiuely Sense how it used Shadow Essence to fores' Shadow Essence was impossible, it seemed that the Essence used by the cloak was still bound to him even after it was converted

If his suspicion was correct and the Duskcloak created so the patterns of the Essence would be a perfect way to learn the spell — far better even than having a spell scroll or a teacher

”I'll take the Duskcloak,” Arran said, ood choice,” Lord Sevaril replied ”Although I noticed that you were interested in the armor, as well”
