Rein smirked as he saw the upgrades he received.
"These'll be incredibly useful. Not to ntion that goblin lord was wearing this glowing orange belt," Rein took it out of his inventory and got Versys to analyze it.
"That's another artifact. This ti, it buffs defense. If you want to boost your defense gains, wear that next ti," Versys inford.
"What happens if I wear this one and the speed one at the sa ti? Will I get 15 on speed and defense whenever I level up, or will it divide between them?" Rein inquired.
"Hold on… Let think…" Versys tried to recall, eventually, sothing popping up to his head, which was also Rein's head.
"Ah, here it is. So these artifacts are called 'power items'. They have 2 effects. They allocate all of the stat gains to 1 stat, and after that, add a flat stat boost of 5 every level. So if you wear them both at the sa ti, all of your stats would be concentrated on defense and speed, yes, but you would also gain a bonus of 5 points per stat," Versys explained.
"So if I wear both of them at the sa ti, I'd be getting 10 extra stat points every ti I level up?" Rein restated, wanting to make sure he understood correctly.
"That's right, but only for speed and defense. I don't really know what happens if you collect all 4 power items, but I can tell you that it would marginally boost your growth," Versys added as Rein imagined him reading a book in his head. "But don't forget, these power items co at a cost. While you're wearing them, your power in that stat gets cut to a tenth, so be careful," he reminded him as Rein smiled at the thought of completing them.
"Yeah, that might be fun. I might actually have to try in missions then," Rein was giddy at the thought of a challenge when suddenly, he felt the carriage co to a sudden halt, exiting out of his nu and peering out to the front, where Clyde had just summoned his weapon.
The tigers were purring at sothing in front of them, Clyde instincts triggered by an unknown entity.
"What's wrong Clyde? Why'd you sto—"
"Don't co out here!" Clyde yelled as Xenia was about to poke her head out of the cart, Rein dropping down to Clyde promptly.
"What happened? I don't feel anything," Rein inquired.
"Hey! Can you hear ? What's happening out there!" Chloe yelled out from the inside, not coming out after Clyde's order.
"Just do as I say! If you leave the cart, I cannot guarantee your safety!" Clyde warned.
Suddenly, Rein felt his senses twitch, feeling sobody watching them from sowhere, with murderous intent.
"What is this Clyde?" Rein asked as he looked around.
"It's Crypt, Roki's red squad. 'The Sight Killer' is what they call them. They're high-ranking in the group, and have been sent to get rid of us," Clyde revealed.
"Then why do I sense the presence of 2 people?"
"The Sight Killer is 2 people. The first person's Spring allows him to kill anyone he looks at for 1 minute straight. However, if they look back at him, the tir resets. The second one is what makes them so dangerous. He has the ability to hijack the eyesight of unintelligent living creatures. Every wild animal and insect in this forest has most likely been hijacked by them, and they're using their eyesight to spy on us. There is no blindspot anywhere," Clyde explained.
"Well, that's not good. No wonder you didn't want the others to co out. But wait, why don't we just go in?" Rein suggested.
"No, we shouldn't risk letting a hijacked insect into the carriage. It's been about 30 seconds since they've begun looking at us…" Clyde said, gritting his teeth in anger as he slowed ti and looked around, wanting to extend the 30 seconds for as long as possible.
"So we're pretty much dead then?" Rein asked calmly, yawning as soon as he posed the question.
Clyde's Spring ran out, and he was panting heavily.
"Tch, I wasn't expecting this…" Clyde closed his eyes in acceptance, only 20 seconds remaining until the Spring would take effect.
"Huh?! What do you an you're dead?!" They heard Chloe's voice from inside.
"Clyde?! Rein?! What's happening out there?" Xenia frantically yelled after them.
"Answer us!" Reggie followed.
"I'm sorry… Please just don't open the carriage. Stay inside, it's for your own good," Clyde dejectedly told them, making their hearts drop to their stomachs, tears beginning to form in their eyes.
"What are you talking about! Please, talk to us!" Xenia's trembling voice rang.
"I'm sorry, they're most likely after the curse. Stay inside the cart, and you should be fine. As long as you're safe, it's all that matters," Clyde uttered as he sat down in acceptance, Rein still standing up, silently.
"Rein! Do sothing! I know you've got sothing in mind!" Chloe commanded, still hope in her heart.
"Heh, yeah I know. I just wanted to see how Clyde would act," Rein laughed as if he had the situation under control, making Clyde turn around and look at him with widened eyes.
"What do you an?! There's only 10 seconds left and counting!" Clyde frantically spoke, a light of hope ignited as he looked at Rein.
"I know. You're a good guy Clyde. I think I've confird that now," Rein imparted before he vanished into thin air.
