Chapter 25：The Fateful Day Has Finally Come (1/2)
After seeing that the staff had started to drop down from its floating state, Jeremy unhurriedly reached out his hand to grab it. Then he inspected its design, shape, and structure carefully.
He saw that the staff looked very ordinary with a long brown wooden shaft of more than 170 cm in length, and its whole shaft was wrapped and coiled around by many brown-grey wooden vines. At the topmost of the staff situated a half-exposed golden orb with a dashing appearance.
It looked so simple yet so elegant at the same time.
'Quite a classic looking staff, isn't it.' Jeremy thought and nodded his head in satisfaction.
After that, Jeremy put the glass bottle of mana fluid back inside his backpack, then he went out of the basement with the staff and the backpack.
He was going to the garage to test the staff's capabilities. He would test many things with it for him to know everything about the staff, and be able to utilize it to the fullest extent when he was partaking in the tutorial.
Well... he wouldn't test it for long anyway because he had to go to sleep soon, it was almost midnight at the time.
...
Almost half an hour later...
After testing the Forsaken Branch's abilities here and there, he was quite certain about its usages and various abilities.
'I'm sure that If I am in tutorial or on Ortus right now. The staff stats will look something like this.'

'It was very worth it to create this staff. I didn't waste 10 days of my life for nothing...' Jeremy thought relievedly to himself.
After memorizing most of its abilities and skills, Jeremy was finally ready for the upcoming tutorial in 3 days time.
Right now, he had almost reached the Class 1 Mage. He was now around mid-level Journeyman Mage with only one step away from reaching the high level.
He believed that, after absorbing in the remaining mana fluid leftover from crafting the staff which had almost reached rock bottom of the bottle. He would be able to reach the peak level of Journeyman Mage and finally be ready to become a Class 1 Mage within the tutorial.
Even though he couldn't become a Class 1 Mage before the tutorial began because of the lack of mana particles in the atmosphere and the gathered mana from the old trees was quite little individually.
Anyway, he was quite satisfied with his status qua for he could become a Class 1 Mage at anytime within the tutorial whenever he had enough time and resources to advance.
'A strength of a peak Journeyman Mage with great combat power together with a Rare rank staff. I will definitely topple the tutorial upside down this time.' Jeremy thought and grinned sinisterly.
'Hmm... the next step is... to do the 'ritual' and create the 'gloves' for myself...'
Jeremy thought about his next steps in the upcoming 2 days...
...
2 days later...
Currently, Jeremy was wearing two black gloves which were spotted a square like symbol at the back of the 2 gloves, they were in a shape of ᛜ, it was also called by another name as Space Rune, a middle-tier rune.
Surprisingly enough, it was actually a space elemental rune, an element that shouldn't be able to exist on Earth.
But Jeremy had made it possible with the a specific ritual...
That's why, he was able to use a combination method of Array inscription and Enchantment, called Array-Enchantment Inscription to create the gloves.
As for the runes that were engraved on the gloves, they were actually space storage runes which were only usable when a class 2 Adept Mage had a high level of affinity in space element.
However, that stated gap could be shrunk down with the extensive knowledge and the intimate relationship with space element.
Just like that, Jeremy had successfully inscribed the rune on each glove and started to store necessary things for the tutorial inside the said storage gloves.
Inside the right glove, Jeremy had stored 3 things there. All of them were combat-related stuffs, starting from a custom-made 2-meter long steel spear with the weight of more than 10 kilograms.
