After Cazan, Vlad focused the power of the A.I. Chip on Mirena, the young Mage with the ability to control metal. It did not take long for the robotic voice of the chip to echo inside his mind, along with the virtual screen displaying the best possible set of runes that would enhance Mirena’s magical abilities.

Best possible Runic Set: Rank 2 Runic Set Metallic Mage Shield.
The Metallic Mage’s Shield set is designed to fortify a Mage’s defenses while amplifying their control over metallic elements. It uses the raw power of demonic blood.
Runes: Rune of Ironclad Defense (Inscribed on the chest), Rune of Magnetic Mastery (Inscribed on the palms), Rune of Demonic Alloy (Inscribed on the arms), and Rune of Reflective Shield (Inscribed on the back).]
Vlad nodded to Mirena after finishing her inspection, sending her to join her brother before turning his attention to Frank, the Mage who resembled a machine gun on the battlefield.
Frank stood still as the A.I. Chip scanned him. Soon, a new message appeared in Vlad’s mind, detailing Frank’s gear capacity and the best possible Runic Set.

Best possible Runic Set: Rank 2 Runic Set Demonic Gunslinger.
The Demonic Gunslinger set enhances a Mage’s firearm abilities, increasing their accuracy, firing rate, and bullet destructive power.
Runes: Rune of Devil’s Aim (Inscribed on the forehead), Rune of Infernal Bullets (Inscribed on the hands), Rune of Rapid Fire (Inscribed on the arms), and Rune of Demonic Reflexes (Inscribed on the legs).]
As Vlad analyzed the Demonic Gunslinger Runic Set, he couldn’t help but smile, thinking it was perfectly designed for Frank. He then turned the A.I. Chip to scan Roman, the second sharpshooter of the group who focused on archery.

Best possible Runic Set: Rank 2 Runic Set Infernal Archer’s Precision.
The Infernal Archer’s Precision set enhances an archer’s accuracy, speed, and destructive power of their arrows by channeling the dark energy of demonic blood.
Runes: Rune of Demon’s Eye (Inscribed on the forehead), Rune of Hellfire Arrows (Inscribed on the hands), Rune of Rapid Shot (Inscribed on the arms), and Rune of Infernal Agility (Inscribed on the legs).]
While the Demonic Gunslinger and Infernal Archer’s Precision sets seemed similar at first glance, their core functions were different. The first set was fit for a Mage’s vast energy pool, while the latter fully utilized the physical might of a Warrior’s Force and abilities.
After finishing with Roman, Vlad turned his attention to Clasius, the third Warrior of the group. Clasius, with his weight enhancement Gift and precise control over his hammer and shield, had proved immensely valuable during the fight with the Champion demons.
The A.I. Chip scanned every inch of Clasius’s body, and after a thorough analysis of his gear capacity and abilities, it sent a message to Vlad’s mind.

Best possible Runic Set: Rank 2 Runic Set Demon-Forged Warrior.
The Demon-Forged Warrior set is designed for close combat. Its demonic power enhances the wearer’s strength, resilience, and offensive capabilities.
Runes: Rune of Demonic Strength (Inscribed on the arms), Rune of Infernal Resilience (Inscribed on the chest), Rune of Hellish Fury (Inscribed on the hands), and Rune of Demonic Agility (Inscribed on the legs).]
Unlike Cazan’s Infernal Berserker Runic Set, Clasius’s Demon-Forged Warrior set provided a balanced enhancement to both defense and offense, crucial for him as he did not have the defensive Gift of the colossus.
Finally, Vlad turned his attention to Amara, the last woman of the group. Amara proved incredibly proficient in assassination, with superb technique. Her mental fortitude was perfect for someone who must endure pressure and wait for the right moment to strike without losing herself in the thrill of battle.
The A.I. Chip scanned every inch of Amara’s body, inside and out, before presenting Vlad with the best possible Runic Set for her.

Best possible Runic Set: Rank 2 Runic Set Shadow Assassin.
The Shadow Assassin set enhances an assassin’s stealth, speed, and lethality. It uses demonic energy to move unseen and strike swiftly.
Runes: Rune of Demonic Stealth (Inscribed on the forehead), Rune of Silent Steps (Inscribed on the feet), Rune of Venomous Strike (Inscribed on the hands), Rune of Shadow Speed (Inscribed on the legs), and Rune of Demonic Reflexes (Inscribed on the back).]
Vlad’s eyes widened upon seeing that the Shadow Assassin Runic Set consisted of five runes, unlike the others, which only had four. More runes meant more power, but it also required a higher capacity, and Amara was able to endure it.
’It seems she has an innate constitution that allows her to handle a higher capacity than those at her same level. That more than makes up for her lack of a Gift,’ Vlad was pleased with Amara’s exceptional constitution.
"Great. I already have the perfect Runic Set for all of you. Wait here as I prepare the materials, and come when I summon you," Vlad said to the group, leaving them in the main hall. Their anticipation was palpable as he headed into a small room with Jormungandr and closed the door.
The room contained a metallic operating table and several metal buckets full of Champion demon’s blood and organs, crucial components in creating the Runic Sets.
Vlad had already ordered the necessary items, but he still needed to prepare the blood and organs, which sometimes involved purifying and infusing them with specific magical properties. He was not a Mage, so there were parts he could not complete alone, but luckily, Jormungandr was by his side.
"It will take around hours to prepare the material for each Runic Set. That will be enough for the A.I. Chip to analyze their engraving process." Vlad spoke to the small yellow cat on his shoulder, and they nodded to each other as they began to work.
