Chapter 378 A Ring for Everyone

Chapter 378 A Ring for Everyone

After Ember and Fang's rings, the next one was Igni's.

For her, I made the ring itself have heat resistance measures placed to avoid breaking or expanding from the heat coming out of her body. This was done by enchanting the red ruby embedded in the ring with the [Heat Resistance] skill. It took quite an effort, but I succeeded nonetheless.

For the design, other than the usual pair name on the underside, the outer part was filled with flame reliefs. The design looked more tribal than I expected, but it should be fine. It does include Igni's signature element in it, after all.

After Igni, Fina's was next. For her, I selected an imperial topaz as the centerpiece, as it was closer to the color of her hair. The adjustment of the size was done quickly before working on the etchings.

For her ring, I chose a relatively simpler design, taking from her succubus nature, going with various designs of hearts, along with a bat-like wing design, a horn, and an arrow-tipped tail.

For Judy and Yorm, even though they weren't attached to me yet, I made the ring's relief the defining feature of their races. For example, Yorm had scales and fangs as relief, while Judy had spiders and webs. The only difference between their rings and the others was that I didn't use a gem on their rings. It wasn't discrimination, but distinction, alright?

Next up was Minerva's ring. For her, it was easier, as she had an overall brown color. I matched the gem with a brown diamond, and the relief I made was of feathers, wings, and books representing knowledge. After all, owls and knowledge are usually linked together.

For Hekate, I had a little bit of trouble. There are too few colors to choose from for her, but in the end, to not overlap with Fang's color, I made hers into a cloudy white agate. The relief I made was reminiscent of her thick neck fur and the wide antennae on top of her head before.

Rather than the intended image, it looked like a relief of a fern-filled forest instead, however... Well, anyway, with that, only one ring remained.

"For Fatima..."

"Leader, you need to look dashing in this engagement ceremony, not only for us but for the nation's benefit!"

"My lord, after thorough filtering, we have these clothes for you to choose from. Now, select one!"

Ember, Fang, and Igni pestered me quite enthusiastically. Losing to their enthusiasm, I ended up getting changed by them right then and there. The one I chose was a simple black-

and-white suit. After all, it was the one that looked the most "normal" of all the clothes they brought.

After they confirmed that I had finished changing, they did my hair a little before finally leaving in satisfaction. All they said was to come to the venue's front entrance at 7 p.m. sharp.

Looking at the clock, I still had 45 minutes left, so I decided to meditate by myself first... though I couldn't seem to stay still. Am I getting nervous now?

Trying to distract myself, I went to the computer and checked out the state of the other units around the country, along with the state of the government offices they were stationed in. It was a slight surprise that everyone was using it quite efficiently.

However, as of now, they're using it more like a giant pager than an actual computer. They were exchanging short messages with each branch to keep everyone on the same page.

I did hear from Ember that she's planning to release the next level of the computer in a month. One that was already installed with a proper UI and actually looked like a proper computer.

Such a thing, if spread to the public, would definitely cause a shift in eras straight to the Information Era. However, before that, we first need to finalize the "eyes in the sky" that are still under construction.

"A satellite would be best to spy on other kingdoms, after all."

I muttered as I leaned on the chair, letting my gaze shift to the clock. Coincidentally, the time just turned 7 p.m. on the dot, so I stood up and straightened my attire one last time before opening a portal straight to the venue of the engagement ceremony.

"Now then, first, we need to shut up the empire b*stards!"Read latest chapters at novelhall.com Only
