Chapter 46: Properties of the Space Ring
After the space stone in its entirety melted onto the Mythril, it was now time for Aakesh to create security for the space ring since currently, anyone could use it.
For security, he would need to draw the symbol of the chants, and in the Multiverse, only a few beings could challenge him when it came to chants. The chants Blacksmiths used belonged to the most simplified language of Dragons since they are the originator of Magic in the Multiverse.
Aakesh not only knew the simplified language of Dragons; he also knew the symbol from which Dragons derived their language and then created the magic. Dragons are the first race created by the group of 10 Devas when the Multiverse stopped expanding.
Since Aakesh already knew the chant required for the security, he started drawing the symbol. The process was slow since even a single mistake could cause the ring to get locked forever. It took him several minutes to embed the chant symbol. It was even more than the combined time he took to separate and combine. He also added several chants that were unknown to the majority of the Multiverse.
Right after he ended the process, a red light engulfed the ring and then surrounded several meters around it in the store. A circular pattern also started emerging in the store. It was looking like someone was going to call a demon from the circle.
"Drop your blood on the center of the pattern," Aakesh then slightly turned around and told Maria while pointing at the center of the pattern. It confused her, but she still did as told since she trusted Aakesh currently even more than herself.
She bit her fingertip and dropped the blood on the center of the pattern. The moment her blood touched the center, a bright light engulfed her, and the space ring. The next moment, the light disappeared, and the tattoo of a Dragon got engraved on the finger in which she would wear the ring.
She looked at the tattoo and suddenly found herself in an illusion. She was standing in an unfamiliar environment while a Dragon was sizing her up. As the Dragon was so huge, she couldn't even tell how big they were since she couldn't even make out the size of their entire head. Her face turned pale from fear. She wanted to step backward, but she was so afraid that she couldn't even move her feet.
"Os, uoy era eht renwo fo eht lobmys!" Suddenly a hoarse emotionless androgynous voice echoed in the surroundings. Maria didn't understand what the being was speaking, so she stayed silent with her face still pale from fear.
"Os gnitniopassid!" The Dragon added. As Maria couldn't understand the words and couldn't think clearly due to fear, her reaction remained the same as the last time.
The Dragon harrumphed, seeing Maria in such fright. Their nostrils flared, and the gust of wind emerged. It then threw Maria away. The next moment, she suddenly disappeared from there and opened her eyes in the store.
Her face was still pale due to the fright. Her whole body was cold with sweat. It was fortunate for her that the Dragon didn't bring their face closer to her; otherwise, she would've got a heart attack. She didn't even care that she saw a mythical creature just now.
"What was that, senior?" She tremblingly asked Aakesh, after her heart somewhat calmed down, while wiping the sweat on her face.
"Oh, I got carried away while making the space ring and used a chant symbol important for the Dragons," Aakesh casually responded as if he only did something insignificant.
Her heartbeat rate rose, hearing him since she would be the owner of the space ring. The feeling of anticipation rose as she excitedly looked at the completed ring floating in front of Aakesh.
"You can take it," He said, seeing Maria looking at the ring. He snapped his fingers, and the next moment, the space ring appeared in her hands. He then looked at Maria, waiting for her reaction when she found the properties of the ring. It was, after all, his first creation.
The first thing Maria did after getting the space ring was to check the space. She sent her consciousness in the ring, and her mouth flew wide open when she saw the empty space where she couldn't see the end of it.
"So much space!" She couldn't help but exclaim loudly after her consciousness returned. Suddenly a blue window emerged in front of her. She was taken aback by the sudden emergence and stumbled to the ground.
Letters then started emerging on the floating screen. Aakesh expressionlessly looked at the screen since he added this feature to it.
[Unnamed space ring,
Total Space: 108 Yojana(1390 Km),
Filled Space: 0,
Empty Space: 108 Yojana,
Storing Ability: Non-living, Living, Primal energy,
Abilities: Status screen, Growth, Self-destruct.]
Maria, who had somehow stood up, again fell down after seeing the properties of the space ring. She then looked at Aakesh to hear from him.
"It can store living beings like humans, your pets, or any kidnapped enemies. It also had the option to store Primal energy. You can use that energy as you see fit," Aakesh started explaining about the space ring while pointing at the ring in her hand.
"The Primal energy it would store would be from the atmosphere. It would continue storing energy all the time, and you can use it for cultivation, attack, defense, etc. It's not unlimited. It has a capita of how much energy it can store."
"It also has the ability to grow. You will need Mythril and space stone if you need to grow the ring. The capacity of storing energy will only increase if you grow the level of the space ring."
"It can also self-destruct when you're at your end and have no choice but to die with the enemy. The range of the attack would depend on how much energy it has stored and the Primal stones. If the energy capacity is full and you add 1 million Inferior Primal stones, the blast would erase the entire Bisan Kingdom," He explained.
The more Maria heard, the more shocking it became for her.. She had heard about the self-destructing ring, but she had never heard of any space ring that could grow or store Qi.
