As he finished making his own Nun binding symbol, the binding was completed.
Gabriel raised the sword, making so actions with it, swinging it around.
His feet also moved with every movent of the sword, as if he was performing a Sword dance. For so reason, after he finished binding the Sword of Ulien, he felt even more comfortable with it. The sword seed sharper, and it seed faster now.
Instead of being light like before, the sword was slightly heavier. But that additional weight only worked to make this sword even more balanced. With more weight behind it, the attacks of the sword ca with much more force.
Moreover, even as he used the sword, he looked way more skillful with it. As soon as he bound the Sword to him, he had managed to understand the Nun even more, including the secret advantages of the sword that he hadn't known before. Along with the connection, he also gained the skills that used this sword.
After testing the Sword of Nun, Gabriel sent the sword back to his ring.
"How was it? Much better, right?" Cylix asked, expecting so excitent on Gabriel's face.
Unfortunately, Gabriel looked more grim than excited as he stared at his hand.
"Is there any problem?" Novius was also intrigued why he was so grim. "What are you thinking about?"
"Just wondering if I even have enough blood to bind all my Nuns," Gabriel answered. It was a unique problem he had.
"Hahaha, just that?" Cylix burst into a healthy laughter, finding his problem to be non-existent. He was worried over nothing. "What's two or three droplets of blood? I don't think this should trouble you."
"It's not just two or three droplets." Gabriel knew just how many Nuns he had. He needed to bind them all, but that was also going to take a lot of his blood.
"You take one or two drops of blood for each binding. If not two droplets for all your Nuns, maybe ten drops?" Cylix guessed. "Not like you have tens of Nuns lying in your storage space."
Gabriel didn't answer. He didn't remove their misunderstanding for now. He wasn't going to place all the Nuns before them that he stole from their own Academy. He decided to do it one by one.
Instead of telling them how many Nuns he actually had, Gabriel walked back to the seat. Even if it was going to take a bit more of his blood, he still wanted to bind all his Nuns before leaving this place.
He had ti as well since after leaving the city; he was sure that Lira was going to be waiting for him. He wanted to bind all the Nuns to himself before leaving as he didn't plan on sharing any with anyone else. At least until he desired.
If binding a Nun made him understand just what that Nun was capable of, he wanted to don as many as he could before leaving.
He sat on the seat and called out the second Nun. A pitch black bracelet appeared in his hand, which was only one milliter thick and three centiters wide.
On the pitch black bracelet, there was a beautiful red gem right at the center of it.
So far, Gabriel had no idea just what this Nun was as he had been called by Eliana with Cain before they could be taught about other Nuns. That's why, other than a few Nuns, he was completely ignorant about most.
"That bracelet..."
Novius and Cylix didn't recognize that bracelet either. They could just feel that it was a Nun from its energy. However, there was one person who recognized this Nun.
He had seen that Nun once before as well, in the Museum of Academy of Elents. It was there by the ti he had co to take part in the tower in his last year. It was surprising to see the sa in Gabriel's hand.
"How do you have that Nun?" Izen asked, not keeping his curiosity to himself. "It should've been at the Academy of Elents."
Gabriel didn't respond. He just sliced his finger again and started making the symbol that was going to be known as the Symbol of the Necromancer throughout the world.
"You know that Nun?" Cylix was quite intrigued to hear that this Nun was kept safe at the Academy.
"I do. I've seen this Nun before in my ti. It was kept in the Museum amongst all the other artifacts. That Bracelet is the Bracelet of Yerin, worn by Demigod Yerin," Yerin explained.
"You're quite right." Gabriel wore the bracelet in his right hand after he finished binding it. Unlike the sword, this artifact was an accessory that he could wear all the ti.
"This is the sa bracelet of Yerin that you saw in the Museum of Elents."
"Then how do you have it?" Cylix inquired.
"He robbed it; what else?" Novius smirked. He wasn't upset at the thought though. In fact, he was quite pleased. If Gabriel actually robbed the Academy, he was happy.
The Academy at present wasn't the sa Academy that they left. It had been overtaken by a bunch of cowards who only went along with the masses. It was better that they didn't possess such things.
"No wonder he was so distressed when he knew that he had to use blood to bind all the artifacts," Novius finally understood Gabriel's worries. "So, tell Gabriel. How many Treasures did you manage to steal?"
"All," Gabriel answered, stunning both Cylix and Novius. It was one thing to steal a few Nuns, but stealing everything that the Academy possessed?
"Wait, not all. I don't have the Mirror of Tis that they use to asure soone's talent." After binding the third artifact, Gabriel sent it back in his ring before calling out the next.
"Also, I don't consider it stealing from the Academy."
"Then what do you consider it?" Cylix asked.
"How can it be stealing when I took sothing that doesn't belong to the Academy in the first place?" Gabriel asked in return. "Weren't you the ones who said that Nuns without a mark of binding are ownerless?"
As he answered, he kept looking inside his Spatial Storage to find the next artifact to bind with his soul.
He wanted to bind a powerful item with him next, which could increase his strength even more. However, even he hadn't realized at the mont that he was right on the verge of taking a decision that could alter his life and this future forever in a direction he couldn't have reckoned...
