Chapter 176: Power Up (2)

There were only seven Artefacts remaining, all of them being at Tier-C, so Veer was hopeful. By that time, Rock also returned with a helmet in his hand, with his bald head shining with sweat.

"It’s awesome, Boss. It felt like a second skin to me, and I also tried infusing my Mana in it. Although the consumption is high, I think I can handle it if I just need to tank attacks for a few seconds at max."

Veer smiled, as that was exactly what he wanted. Those few seconds would be more than enough for deciding the outcome of a battle.

’At least someone isn’t disappointed with our hunt. El was right. It’s better to increase our own strength rather than relying on Artefacts.’

Veer gestured to his sides and said, "Come and sit. I don’t think there is anything more for you, but tell me if you like anything."

Saying that, Veer picked up his next Artefact, a Tier-C emblem. As he looked at it, its information came before him in the hologram.

[Scout’s Emblem]

[Tier - C]

[Type - Accessories]

[Description - Moderate increase in attack speed and range focus.]

Since Veer and Elara already had their accessories, he gave it to Elara and said, "This should do you good."

"Umu! Attack speed is all I need, and I can punch holes in anything, even that fucking dragon," Elara happily took the emblem and wore it.

"Stop cursing, bitch," Veer rolled his eyes and turned to pick up another Artefact. It was a belt made from a deep purple substance, with many holes and a skull on its head.

[Titan’s Belt]

[Tier - C]

[Type - Accessories]

[Description - Passively strengthens the body and absorbs minor shock damage.]

Veer hummed, looking at the description. It was certainly very useful and, in fact, one of the best Artefacts he had gotten till now. The problem was, who should he give this to?

Raising his head, he looked at everyone and thought, ’Aurora doesn’t need it that much, same goes for Elizabeth. Rock already has his armour. That leaves us.’

He showed the belt to Elara and said, "Let’s give this to Rain. We already have our means to defend, but she doesn’t. She will need it more than us, considering she will also attack directly."

"You don’t need to explain all that. Just do whatever you want," Elara shrugged, not caring one bit about the fact that Veer could take bad decisions.

Veer sighed and gave the belt to Rain, while also explaining its functions, "Just activate it before going into battle. Considering that you’ll have to lurk around, it can give your body a boost and also keep it safe if you get a random attack on you."

"Yee, thanks boss. Also, due to my Aspect, I can actually adjust to the difference in strength because of boosts," Rain giggled, happily taking the belt and wearing it around her slim waist.

’Now, that’s two out,’ Veer smiled and looked back at the other Artefacts. Next was a bow, which he had to throw back in the storage ring again.

Aurora had the best one, so she didn’t really need it, and others couldn’t use a bow.

Proceeding forward, Veer picked up a light leather armour. It was made from a very light material, as if made from feathers, as Veer could hardly feel its weight.

He smiled and gave it to Aurora after checking its description.

[Asura’s Wrath Armor]

[Tier - C]

[Type - Light Armour]

[Description - Forms a protective aura that repels weaker attacks and increases strength.]

Aurora smiled, as this was exactly what she needed. Although she already had good armour, this was far better than hers. So, she thanked Veer and wore it upon her battle suit.

Then, Veer picked up a pair of gauntlets, making him speechless. Just how fair was this world towards women, and how did Elara get so many of the Artefacts?

Shaking his head, Veer threw the gauntlets towards her after seeing its description, which made him even more speechless.

[Heaven-Crusher Gauntlets]

[Tier - C]

[Type - Weapon]

[Description - A pair of gauntlets that can amplify any punch with devastating shockwaves.]

Elara’s grin turned wider, as she laughed, "Haha! This is the best. Thank the dead gods I got this."

"You know, this was probably a battlefield for Gods in the Dark Era, and there might be their souls wandering around," Aurora said, smiling at Elara.

"Yeah, like I care." Elara rolled her eyes and kept the gauntlets close to her chest.

Veer looked at the remaining two Artefacts, hoping one was good for him. Sadly, the next one was a dagger which he kept at its waist. It was nothing worthy, honestly, but it would be good if there was a time he lost his swords.

He wasn’t a dagger man, but he could use them.

Now, the time was for the last Artefact.

[Voidwalker Boots]

[Tier - C]

[Type - Weapon]

[Description - Grants short-range teleportation using refined mana control.]

"Fucking hell!" Veer exclaimed in shock and stood up. For a second, he couldn’t even react as he cursed again. "Hell yeah! Being patient always gives the best rewards."

"Ho? What happened now?" Elara asked in amusement. "Are they that good?"

"Of course, they are. If I use enough Mana, then I can teleport," Veer grinned, as he clenched his fists. "And my Mana is potent and in large quantity too. This is the best." Find your next read on novelbuddy

"Is it like my skill?" Rain tilted her head and asked. "The one where I throw a dagger and teleport there. Honestly, it’s mana consuming and makes my head hurt."

"Yeah, something similar but much better," Veer nodded. "I can actually teleport in short range and in every direction without any prerequisite. Your dagger can alert the enemy, but my teleportation doesn’t have that thing."

"Hmm, that’s actually good, but will your head hurt too?" Rain asked.

"That we’ll know after trying," Veer said. "Anyway, let’s go back to our little home. The sun is going down."

"Oh yeah, I also collected some more things so we can check them later," Aurora said, standing up.
