Who needs a Wand?!...

[•Orichalcum Broadsword (Enchanted) •]

| Rank - B

| Condition - Perfect

| Enchantments:

- Fire Aspect

| Stored Mana - /20

| Materials:

- Orichalcum

- Emerald

| Description - A magical Broadsword Made from Orichalcum. It has an emerald embedded into it's hilt that acts as both a decoration and Mana storage needed to charge the fire formation engraved onto the blade's surface.

Upon coming into contact with something, the enchantment sets the target aflame with a magical fire. The Fire is sustained using Ambient Mana, Mana of the target and the Mana stored in the sword, making it very hard to put out by anyone other than the wielder of the Weapon.

"Tis is Awesome!" Said Konrad simply upon reading the description.

The enchanted sword was the first reward he opened, and he wasn't in the least disappointed with the outcome.

The sword was simple in theory, yet obviously much better than the steel Broadsword he used until now. The fire attack was also quiet good. The flame was indeed magical in nature, seeing as it was blue in color and responded to his will. He could cover the entire blade in those blue flames or send them as sword beams, something he was really excited about. He could also easily put them out with a simple thought, but if he were to try putting them out normally then it would be much harder. A very useful trait for a weapon...

After a few short experiments, Konrad was finally satisfied so he put the sword aside and turned to the other rewards. There was still the matter of learning enchantment formations from the blade but he would leave it for later.

[• Ring Of Arcana •]

- Amethyst

| Description - A Ring designed to store large amounts of Mana. The design and materials allow for a fluid transmission of Mana between the ring and the user.

'Huh? That's...much simpler than i thought...No special skills or anything like that... But i guess it's additional Mana Capacity so i shouldn't complain.' Thought Konrad before putting the ring on his finger. It looked quiet stylish and he wasn't embarrassed with wearing it.

He tried pouring his Mana into it and was surprised with how much ease he could do that. It was much faster than simply releasing his Mana into the surroundings and he could instantly see some new possibilities regarding his Mana Capacity training. He just needed something bigger...And he had something on his mind that should be perfect exactly for this situation.

__________

Konrad stopped in his tracks after reading the description.

'A Channeling Equipment...Wand... Stuff...' The words revolved in his minds as a sudden understanding befallen him....

*Ummm...Daddy? Why are you hitting your face?* Asked Octavia upon seeing Konrad hitting his forehead repeatedly and chanting 'stupid!' Over and over again.

"...wha...Oh Octavia! Sorry. I just realized something that never occurred to me and I felt stupid for not thinking of it before." Replied Konrad awkwardly.

Then, he explained to her his realization. Mages should actually use tools to cast magic! That explained why he had so much problem with spellcasting in the beginning! He spend Months learning how to control Mana, and a few more figuring out how to apply it into actual spells!

If it was possible to skip the control training using a tool and he didn't think even once of such a possibility, then maybe he should really question whether he was really becoming smarter like the stat points indicated...

Whatever the case is however, Konrad wouldn't regret his training. He could cast magic, as some people would say, wandlessly! So wasn't that a rather big achievement?

Konrad decided to look at it from the brighter side. He learned a very complicated technique that made it possible for him to cast spells without any Staff or Wand! There's nothing more to do than celebrate his achievement, right?

A smile appeared on his face and he sighed. 'Yeah...I achieved something very hard and that's all I should focus on. Now it's time to test this thing! I didn't even check how much easier would that be to cast spells while wearing this Bracelet so I should look into it now!' Thought Konrad, before taking hold of the Bracelet in front of him.

It was quiet the work of art. The entire bracelet was made out of Mithrill, with a mystical pattern made using purple metal that was obviously Adamantite. There were also seven diamonds set around the accessory like seven focal points connecting the purple markings. They must have been the main containers for Magical Energy.

It took him a while to figure out how to put the bracelet on, but when he was finally done there was nothing more to do than to test its capabilities.

Konrad pushed his Mana into the bracelet and blanched in shock when his entire Mana was almost instantly drained into the tool. The bracelet's capacity was almost the same as his own Mana Pool and if it could drain him with so much speed then maybe there was still a chance for him to improve his Capacity! Konrad was now very excited. If he combined his Ring of Arcana and The Bracelet of Hecate, it should only take him a few days to rise his Capacity by around 200 points! Emptying the tools while waiting for his Mana to recover should be much easier than trying to empty his own reserves while they are constantly regenerating! The only thing he needs now is to figure out how to make something similar to the ring and the bracelet, or if it was possible to chanell his Mana out into the surroundings using the Bracelet with the same speed he used to pour the mana into it. If he manages that, then his Capacity training could finally continue once again!

He only needed 5 minutes to fully recharge his Mana before he tried to do what he just thought up. He tried to push his Mana into the bracelet while at the same time forcing the Mana already inside of the bracelet to escape into the surroundings but it was much slower than he hoped it to be...It was still faster than when he didn't have anything to chanel his Magic through but it wasn't as fast as when he only focused on a single chanalling activity...Seems like it would only help him for a while before he needed to make something bigger to accommodate his training needs...

The next test in order was the spell casting test. Konrad focused and tried casting the fireball spell and a grin split his face when his magic smoothly converted into a ball of fire that shoot into the distance. The ball was much bigger than he was planing it to be but it was also faster than when he casted without any medium which meant that he needed to get used to the sudden improvement.

He also wasn't going to stop training without a tool, as it was only the natural thing to do if he wanted to keep on improving himself.

All in all, it was a very good find and it was only one of many...
