But other than the strange appearance of this ring, there was something else that this ring possessed.
It was the powerful mana that seemed to be contained within this ring.
Even standing on the side, I could sense the powerful mana fluctuations that were coming from the ring. It was clear that this ring was anything but normal if they were giving off these kinds of mana fluctuations.
Only I had no idea what this ring was capable of.
All I could feel were the mana fluctuations coming from the ring.
It took a while longer for the one eyed old man to finish the accessory.
When he was finally finished, he took one good look at the ring before giving a satisfied nod as if he was happy with his work. Only then did he turn back to me and raise the hand with the ring in it as if he was handing it back to me.
I looked at him with a strange look and didn''t take the ring from him.
As if he could guess what I was thinking, the one eyed old man said, "It''s free."
"Huh?" I was caught off guard when I heard him say this.
The one eyed old man didn''t hesitate to say, "Why do you think I''m helping you make this thing anyway? It''s something that''s covered by the Abyss Guards, so you don''t need to worry about it."
"Oh…" I said as I slowly started to understand what he meant by this.
I had been so focused on the work of the one eyed old man that I had actually forgotten where we were.
This was the camp of the Abyss Guards, so everyone that was here had to be related to the Abyss Guards in some way. For the one eyed old man to be here, it meant that he was someone that was hired by the Abyss Guards.
So it turned out that he was an accessory craftsman for the Abyss Guards, that was why he had been able to turn the eyeball into this ring.
Only I couldn''t help wondering just who he was.
To do something like this, he had to have some kind of fame…
It was just that I had never heard of this person before…
It didn''t make sense that someone with his skills would remain, so there had to be a reason why I didn''t know him.
"Are you going to take it or not?" The one eyed old man interrupted my thoughts and I was pulled back to reality.
I just looked at the ring that he was holding out for me for a bit before slowly taking it and looking it over.
Though I was looking over the ring, I still couldn''t figure out what this ring did, so I asked, "What does it do?"
"Wave it around and you''ll find out." The one eyed old man said with a playful smile.
"Huh?" I looked at him with a confused look and even thought that he was playing with me, but it didn''t seem like he was going to say anything else.
So in the end, all I could do was follow his instructions. sea??h thё N?vel?ire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
I waved the ring around in front of me and waited to see what it did.
"Flash, flash."
There were a few flashes of light that came from the ring before…
"Clash! Clunk! Thud!"
There were these loud sounds that came from in front of me. I had looked away for a second because of the flash that came from the ring, but I turned back to see that there were soldiers that were on the ground.
Some of them even seemed like they were frozen in place with how they didn''t move.
It was as if they had been paralyzed by something.
I slowly looked at the eyeball ring that was on my hand before saying, "It can''t be that…"
"Ha, ha, ha!" My suspicions were confirmed when I heard a laugh coming from behind me.
I turned to see that it was the one eyed old man who was laughing while looking at where the crash happened.
With the way that he looked in that direction and was even laughing, it was very clear what happened. He was the cause of this…well, I was the cause of it, but he was the one that instigated it by telling me to wave the ring.
So it seemed that this ring had some kind of paralyzing effect…
But this wasn''t the time to think about that as I had caused quite a mess.
So the only thing that I could do was go over there and compensate the soldiers that I had inconvenienced with the flashing from the ring.
They looked at me with glares, but it seemed that they dropped the matter when they saw the Abyss Guard badge that was on my chest.
Of course, I didn''t want to let things end just like this since it felt wrong, so I took out some things to compensate them with which made them happier to settle this matter here.
Once that was over, I turned back to say a few things to the one eyed old man, but I found that he had reached his hand out towards me as if he was waiting for me to give him something.
I just looked at him with a confused look since I had no idea what he wanted.
Seeing the way that I looked at him, the one eyed old man said with a sigh, "I can sense it, you still have other materials don''t you? Just hand them over and I''ll help you turn them into accessories as well. That will be considered a bit of an apology from me."
One might have been fooled by him if they hadn''t thought things through.
I wasn''t one of those people.
He was being paid for this work by the Abyss Guards, so he would earn money for this. There was nothing that he was losing even though he made it sound like he was the one losing something.
But in the end, I still handed the materials over.
It was better to turn these materials into accessories that could be used instead of keeping them.
