Chapter 6 - Chapter 5: Relics

Keith rummaged through the other stuff in the box and found three rings. At first glance these rings would look like ordinary rings but Keith new better. He saw the runes embedded on each ring. These rings were storage rings. Storage rings are relics created for storing items such as relics, money and even food.

Keith remembered that sister Amaya once told them when they arrived at the orphanage, they had these rings on their fingers. At first Sister Amaya thought that these three were related but later dismissed that idea after getting a DNA test.

When they were kids, they hid these rings in the box for fun. After a long time, they had forgotten all about the rings but Keith remembered them after gaining some memories from his past life. He gained the ability to actually remember even the smallest details from his memories and also remember long-forgotten memories.

He gave Merlin and Kayla their rings and all three of them slipped the rings on their fingers. Keith infused his soul essence in the ring and the rune glowed a bright crimson glow. His consciousness was suddenly sucked into the storage ring. When he opened his eyes, he only pitch darkness then there was a blinding white light. The light caused him to be temporarily blinded for a few minutes.

After he regained his senses, he was surprised at what he saw. There were piles of gold coins and soul beast cores and Spells books. Keith's jaw dropped at the sight of all the treasures in his storage ring. To think that he was carrying such a small fortune in his storage ring. Keith regained his composure and walked towards one of the piles. He picked up a Spells book and tried to learn it. He put it close to his chest but nothing happened.

[Due to your class, you can't learn Spells, you can only copy them from other people and soul beasts]

Keith wasn't surprised as he had expected this to happen. He ordered his system to show him the description of class.

[Class: Mirror of All Creation]

[Rank: Divine]

[Description: Reflections of essence, echoes of might. The Mirror of All Creation gazes upon the world, replicating, the strengths of those it beholds. Its wielder harnesses the power of duplication, mirroring the abilities of friends and foes alike. As the mirror's surfaces glimmers, the lines between the original and the copy blur, granting the wielder unapparelled versatility in the heat of battle]

[Limitations: The wielder's ability to learn Spells the normal way is taken away from them. They can only learn Spells through mimicking]

"I thought that the limitation will be different this time around but I guess that was wishful thinking," he muttered as he sighed, a bit disappointed. He had no use for this Spells books which was such a bummer. "Maybe I can give my friends some of the spell books and copy them once they learn the Spells," he thought to himself.

He walked from pile to pile looking at each of the Spell books whilst he was looking for something else. He was searching for some relics. Relics are special weapons created from soul core of a soul beast or either attained after defeating soul beast.

He continued on with his search, his eyes scanning each pile until he found a pile with two weapons inside. He went to that pile and rummaged through the coins until he got the weapons he was looking for. He held the two weapons in his hands with a glimmer of surprise and shock in his eyes.

The relics closely resembled Japanese swords. The first was a katana. The blade had black handle that was both strong and firm and the steel of the blade was obsidian black. The katana was an impressive length of thirty inches. The katana's steel etched with intricate designs that danced in the light. Keith marveled at the beauty of the blade. Keith knew that this blade carried a lot of power and untold secrets.

The other blade was shorter than the katana. The second Japanese blade resembled a wakizashi. The wakizashi's handle had beautiful black and white pattern. The steel's color was as white as the pale moonlight. The length of the was an impressive twenty inches.

Suddenly a two system panels appeared in front of him.

[Relic Name: Eclipse]

[Rank: Uncommon]

[Tier: III]

[Relic Category: Weapon]

[Type: Growth type]

[Description: The blade was forged by one of the ten elder gods. The god of the eclipse also the twin brother of the god of the sun. The god of the eclipse hated his twin brother so he created a weapon that could kill the descendants of the Sun god. This weapon though is just a prototype]

[Enchantments: Eclipse Aura, Deity's Wrath]

"Ok, this guy hated his sibling very much. Like who the hell creates a weapon specifically designed to kill their brother's descendants," he muttered. "But I wonder what drove him to hate his brother to that extent. What the hell did the Sun god do."

Keith looked at the other system panel.

[Relic: Tear of the Moon]

[Rank: Uncommon]

[Tier: II]

[Relic Category: Weapon]

[Type: Growth type]

[Description: The goddess of the moon once fell in love with one of the sons of the God of eclipse. She loved him with whole her heart and soul. One day the sun god found out about this affair and was enraged to the point he killed moon goddess' lover. After the death of her lover, she cried and her tears formed a new mineral used in the creation of this sword]

[Enchantments: Nightmare Resistance, Phase cut, Tsukuyomi poison]

As he read through the description, he felt sorry for the moon goddess. He started thinking on why the eclipse god hates the sun god. Maybe the eclipse god was angered by the prospect that the Sun god killed his son to the point that he created a weapon to kill off the descendants of the Sun God. Due to his analysis another question came to mind. Why did the sun god kill the moon goddess's lover? He tried to theorize many different scenarios but he couldn't be sure why unless he had the proof.
