Chapter 27 Rewards
"Finally! A +6 item!"
Vincent couldn't help but be emotional again.
"Thank you, grandpa… I will take care of this cane and treat it as a family heirloom. I'll make sure this cane reaches plus ten!"
Vincent said in a moment of excitement. Of course, it would be really great if he did that. However, he would most likely need a lot of time to accomplish that.
Ding!
[ Congratulations! You have successfully enhanced an item for the sixth time! ]
[ You have obtained Mana Capacity Permanent Boost. ]
[ You have obtained a 75% Success Rate Boost Voucher. ]
"Oh~ New rewards!" Vincent felt even more excited seeing new rewards being given to him. Before, he would mostly receive new features on his system as his achievement rewards.
Now, he found two rewards that he really wanted!
[ Mana Capacity Permanent Boost: Provides a permanent increase in the user's Mana Source by 40 units. ]
[ Mana: 103 / 120 ]
[ 75% Success Rate Boost Voucher: A one-time voucher you can use any time you like. Only effective for any items that have not reached their 7th enhancement. ]
"Great. Below seventh enhancement… This means I can use it again on the cane."
Vincent couldn't help but smile seeing such generous rewards given to him. Completing these hidden missions was really good.
"Anyway, let's see if I can enhance it again…"
[ No Enhancement Stones found. You have insufficient Mana to Enhance the item. ]
Vincent triggered the enhancement again which gave him this reply.
Since he did not use his Mana and used the Enhancement Stone a moment ago, he still has 63 units in his Source but with the permanent boost he had, he still has 103 units!
"Isn't that a bit too much?! One hundred is not enough for a plus-seven item?!"
Since he received the notification that he has insufficient mana when attempting to Enhance, he obviously needed 103 and above units.
This doesn't sound a piece of good news at all.
'I wonder how much mana is needed this time. As for the enhancement stone… Perhaps I would need 3 or more of them for the next enhancement to save my mana…'
Vincent mused since the System that he has wouldn't help him with any kind of questions at all. He can only find the answer once he tried enhancing them later on when he increased his Mana Capacity.
Anyway, Vincent decided to spend 2 units of mana to Appraise the item.
[ Soul-Forged Ironbark Cane +6 ]
[ Quality: Rare
Number of Enhancements: 6/10
Durability: 120/120
Crush: +65
Description: A cane that is suited for battle. It is carved from the exclusive Ironbark to form the base of the cane. It is decorated with gilded patterns and only leaves the handle untouched which has been decorated with scale-like stubs.
Remarks: Special Crush Attribute found. Durability and Crush attributes will be upgraded in every enhancement.]
Vincent read the details and confirmed that the durability increased by 20 and the crush attribute increased by 25.
Aside from that, it didn't mention anything about why it looked brand new. So perhaps it was just for its outer appearance and doesn't really affect anything.
'Well… It at least looks a lot better. Maybe a natural perk after becoming a +6 item?'
Vincent thought as he continued studying the changes he did.
'Let's see how much experience was added this time.'
[ Name: Vincent Kayser ]
[ Age: 9 years old ]
[ Mana: 101/120 ]
[ Skill: Item Enhancement Lv1, Basic Item Appraisal ]
[ Item Enhancement Lv1 – The user can use their Mana or Enhancement Stones to upgrade the item they are holding ]
[ Enhancement EXP: 4890/5000 ]
"Oh! I got 50 exp from that!"
Vincent felt really happy after seeing how he was getting close to reaching the second level of his skill.
"Fine… Let's level it up today."
Since he still has a hundred units of mana, he can just randomly enhance the items he can find here within the cabin.
Enhance! Enhance! Enhance!
A successful +1 enhancement provides him with 1 exp point. A +2 enhancement gives 5 exp while +3 gives him 8 exp.
Then, the 4th enhancement gives 10 exp points and the 5th one gives 20 exp. 𝑓𝒓𝚎e𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯𝘰𝐯𝒆𝑙.c𝚘m
This means that using 64 units of mana to enhance the same item from +1 to +5 gives him 44 experience points. This wasn't bad at all considering he would not experience any enhancement failure from the first to the fifth enhancement, or at the very least, he hadn't experienced that yet.
The calculation seem to say that its better to enhance 64 items once to get 64 exp points but it's not easy to find so many enhanceable items as well.
Vincent then thought for a moment before he checked his pouch and checked its content on the table.
Thud. Thud. Thud.
They are three Beast Cores that can be used to replenish his mana or be used as an Enhancement Stone.
"Should I use it to replenish my mana now?" Vincent considered for a moment before shaking his head.
"I need to be patient. Let's just wait for my mana to be replenished after some meditation."
Vincent convinced himself as he closed his eyes.
He only has three cores that were left by his Grandpa after all.
If he uses all of them now, he would have to start hunting Savage Beasts if he wanted to collect them again.
Right now, he's still not that confident hunting alone.
"I should probably get some more muscles before thinking of hunting them…" Vincent sighed as he looked at his small body.
Even though he is cultivating his Soul that could also strengthen his body, it wasn't that easy to get an immediate result.
At this time, he can only stay in the safe region of the forest until he gets confident with his hunting skills.
