Ding!
[The [Soul Reinforcing Phial (A Grade)] x3, [Dark Scale Dragon Blood (A Grade)] x1, and [Lesser Yggdrasil's Sap (A Grade)] x1 Items have been stored inside the [Inventory] Function within the Unique Skill [System] powers.]
[To receive further detail about these acquired items, please visit the Inventory.]
As I was leisurely jumping around over Lily Pads with the Dwarves while the rest of my family was flying around and gathering materials for me out of goodwill, I saw that System message.
"Right, I almost forgot about that…"
I quickly concentrated my mind as I began to talk with the System, wondering what the heck was this. I knew items could be created through things such as Forging and Alchemy, but items materializing out of thin air was really crazy aside from the Dungeon Drops.
And this dungeon's monsters didn't dropped anything to begin with! We killed a few hundred already and they have yet to drop anything. I guess this Dungeon is not so generous… Well, we saw a few dozen low quality potions that Helga said would fetch a pretty high price anyways due to their rarity, and some low-quality pieces of equipment that are not really anything good for us, so we were just going to sell them.
But aside from them, I haven't really seen items materializing out of thin air before like that! How did Hel even sent an item, a material object, right into my very soul which then was stored inside my Inventory? It is crazy!
I guess that's… the power of a god?
System, can you tell me about the gist behind it?
[There's nothing much I can tell you myself. I was only able to see the items materialize and that was about it. But it was definitely the power of the Gods. They possess the almighty ability to Materialize items out of thin air. Even Alchemy cannot do such a thing. I guess it is part of being a God. Even the System itself can only exchange System points for Leveling Up Skills, Temporary Stat Boosters or Skills of various grades.]
Yeah, I can tell… Well, that's it.
I do wonder though… could Alchemy lead to such power?
[Alchemy and Forging in this world are already God-like powers. Taking materials to convert into new ones through utterly magical methods that are completely different yet slightly similar to those from back on Earth… indeed, they are god-like in many ways, yet this world merely treats them as something normal.]
That's a game-like world for you, can't do anything about it I suppose.
But yeah, I was rather freaked out when I first found out about how Alchemy and Forging worked in this world, it is truly a magical experience.
Nonetheless… let's check the new Items and what they're all about.
-----
[Soul Reinforcing Phial (A Grade)] x3
A Phial made through Divine Power with a small amount of Liquified Aether within. This liquid was taken from the Endless River of Souls within the Underworld. A common item that is sold widely in the Underworld to reinforce the Soul of Undead. By drinking it, the Soul can grow stronger and Aether can be gained by a random amount between 1 to 10.
-----
Wait what?! And I got 3 of these?!
Thank you so much Hel-sama!
I should had never doubted you!
This item is fantastic! I can tell that Hel has been spying on me if she gifted me this. She probably knows I've been struggling at increasing the power of my Soul by increasing Aether.
Through I think she went overboard with this. It is way too nice to be honest. But well, I am nobody to judge her good intentions. I might as well just take them happily and maybe ask for seconds later.
I drank all three Phials right away.
The liquid inside was golden and sweet like candy syrup.
However, it didn't felt dry like syrup, but drinking it refreshed my throat and made me feel happy and relaxed.
"Hahhh… So good…"
Ding!
[You gained +7 Aether!]
[You gained +3 Aether!]
[You gained +5 Aether!]
Oh! I gained a total of 15 Aether?! Nice, I'll take it!
Now let's see what these other Items are…
-----
[Dark Scale Dragon Blood (A Grade)] x1
The fresh Blood of a Dark Scale Dragon, a monstrous beast that roams around the darkest continents of the World. It is a ferocious S+ Rank Monster capable of devouring everything it desires and engulfing the land in utter destruction. However, it loves to take naps for centuries.
If drank by a Dragon with compatibility, their Bloodline can awaken and their Stats and Skills might increase in both quantity and levels.
-----
[Lesser Yggdrasil's Sap (A Grade)] x1
The fresh Sap of a Lesser Yggdrasil Tree, a child of the Yggdrasil Tree that supports the entire world of Yggdrasil. A rich and sweet sap that contains a large quantity of Nature Attribute Spiritual Energy and even a slight hint of Divine Power mixed in. Works as an Elixir that could heal most wounds and diseases.
If consumed by a Plant, the Plant, if compatible enough, might be able to attain new Spiritual Powers and possibly evolve into a Magic Plant or a Spirit Plant.
-----
These two are… I see.
I think I understand why I got these despite not being compatible with me at all.
The first one's for Nyx, and the second one is for Root!
I guess she didn't forgot about her precious Calamities if she wants me to give them this present she left for them.
Alright, I'll start with Root.
"Hey Root, drink this."
"Gyuh? What's this, master?"
"Just drink it."
I didn't really had time to explain things to him.
"G-Gyuh? Very well…"
He didn't really hesitated anymore, as I gave him the bottle and he drank its contents.
"Gyuhh!"
His face resembled to be in utter bliss as he drank it all. He quickly began shining brightly, a golden aura of spiritual essence surged from within his body.
"This is very good master! Gyuhhh!"
