The black suitcase was placed on the coffee table by the Old Cleric. When opened, lying in the soft padded lining was surprisingly a thorn headdress made of silver-colored metal.
Although it's called a headdress, its design is merely a round ring wrapped with a circle of metal thorns. Its craftsmanship is quite exquisite, but the silver metal is covered with reddish-brown rust, looking more like bloodstains. This makes this "Thorn Ring" seem less like it was made this week, and more like it was just dug up last week.
But Shard did not underestimate this item, as its rich Miracle Element reveals the essence of an Alchemical Item, and it is actually a powerful Divine Item. Among the Divine Items he has encountered, only Sister Perry's Sun Holy Emblem in Randall Valley was more powerful—an emblem that now belongs to Iluna.
"I call this item the 'Angel's Thorny Crown,' and its use is quite simple."
