Chapter 493 - Gifts
"…" Ray stopped for a mont, looking at the Red Lion. He needed to make sure he didn't regenerate anymore and waved his hand downwards, slicing his neck.
He threw the head nearby, so he could bring it back later while reducing the body into ashes.
After that, he turned around and reappeared next to Valerie.
His eyes were filled with worries while scanning her injuries.
"Don't worry." Valerie smiled and pointed to the tube filled with green liquid. "I have used the Acceleration Recovery Liquid. I will be back in no ti."
Before he spoke, Ray felt two presences behind him.
"Can you help up?" requested Valerie while assuring him she was alright.
Ray nodded and gently pulled her up with his hands, so Valerie could speak to them.
After getting up, Valerie looked at Theo's Master. "Nina."
"Yes?" Theo's Master bowed to her.
"Can I ask another favor from you?"
"May I know what it is?"
Valerie smiled and raised her hand. There was a golden bracelet hanging around her wrist and a shining blue jewel as its eyes.
She took off the bracelet and handed it to her. "Can you give this bracelet to him as his birthday present?"
"…" Nina took a step back, frowning. "This… I don't think it's appropriate for to do it."
"Ho?" Davi opened her mouth in surprise. "An artifact… It seems to have been crafted not long ago. What's its rank? Judging from the Magic Power around it, I guess it's a B Rank artifact."
Valerie poured her Magic Power into the artifact. Surprisingly, the artifact changed into a golden spear with a blue jewel on the center of the blade.
"This spear has been reinforced by Ocean Star. It should be able to strengthen his Magic Power every ti he uses his skill or Control. Just tell him to avoid using it too much before becoming a Supre Rank Expert because the Ocean Star will take too much Magic Power for the current him."
"Ocean Star…" Davi sucked a cold breath. "If I wasn't wrong, the jewel alone cost one billion Zils. And the artifact…"
"Ahaha, it's nothing. We didn't use the Griffith Family's fortune, so you don't need to worry about the implication." Valerie stopped pouring her Magic Power and the bracelet returned to its normal state.
Davi looked away, muttering inwardly, 'Did they spend their entire fortune? It is maybe a B Rank Artifact, but it's one of the best. The creator of this artifact should be the Griffith Family's Grandmaster. And that Ocean Star is the core of a Mythical Rank Deep Shark.
'To put it into a B Rank Artifact, I'm afraid she is intending to avoid making an artifact too good for the current Theo, so no one covets it for the ti being. And after he grows stronger, he can ask a Master Artisan to reinforce it to an A Rank Artifact. Hmm…'
Nina hesitated for a second and asked, "Why didn't you give him this? I'm sure he will be thrilled to get a present from his parents for the first ti after so long…"
"It's because we haven't t for too long that I'm sure he won't accept a present from ." She shook her head helplessly. Valerie then glanced at Ray. "Where's the book?"
Ray reached into his pocket and pulled out a palm-size notebook.
Materialization Combination.
"!!!" Davi dropped his jaw when he saw the na. "That… Isn't that the secret of your Control that allows you to combine multiple aspects at once? In your case, it's Breathing, Control, and Technique… Wait, Theo's talent… Don't tell …"
Ray didn't answer him and handed the book to Nina.
"I hope you can give Theo these two as his birthday presents."
Nina was still hesitating and asked one more question. "Still, the training guide that you gave to train his five aspects to create a foundation for his future… Wasn't that a book you put together from you, her, the pope, Sir Adamax, and Sir Renji? And the Materialization book… Are you sure you are giving him all of these right now?"
She turned to Ray with doubts. "Master's understanding about Control is said to be the closest to the ancestor who built the Griffith Family. And no one has learned about his Control yet, including the Griffith Family. Are you sure about this?"
Ray nodded. "He is my son… As long as I can provide it, I will give it to him. Unfortunately, soone from the Griffith Family also needs to learn this technique, so I want him to be the first to learn it."
"Well, Nella will probably be the representative from the Griffith Family. Considering how soft she is to Theo, I guess that's fine?" Valerie looked at Ray with a smile.
Ray shook his head helplessly. "Even with all this, there's nothing that can buy ti and opportunity to et him."
Nina gritted her teeth and finally received the bracelet along with the book. "I understand. I will give these two to him."
"Please don't say it's from us, okay? Otherwise, he won't accept it."
Nina couldn't do anything and complied. She needed to take all the credits again for all the gifts Theo had received all this ti. "Yes."
"Thanks." Valerie nodded and finally looked at Davi. "Little Davi, can you tell father that I'm sorry?"
"I think he wants to hear sothing else from you…" Davi rejected it in an instant and Valerie knew it. However, she shook her head and said, "Ahaha, I think it's impossible right now. Maybe in the next decade?"
"…" Davi rolled his eyes. "That aside, the reason you didn't hide Theo in our War God Family was due to this, right?"
"Yes." She admitted it without hesitation.
"Father's motto is equal love. Even if I ask him to keep him a secret, he will definitely train Theo per his motto, and Theo's talent will bloom too soon. Considering your status in the Griffith Family, they will surely check our War God Family, making them know his talent.
"And with all this going on, not only can Theo grow this fast without anyone knowing, but when Father offers him to join the War God Family, he also has no choice other than offering everything he owes for the past seventeen years due to that motto along with the additional rewards for his current achievent.
"It's literally forcing Father to give Theo a blank check. Is this also the reason you handled this matter personally instead of letting Father do it? You're trying to avoid reducing the offer he will give later? How ruthless you are…"
"You and I grew up in the sa family."
"Yeah. I was among the middle rank while you were always in the top three." Davi sighed in defeat. "Everything turned out to be your plan. I guess Father may end up coming to your Griffith Family to beat you up."
"Ahaha…" Valerie looked away.
