Noel also thought about the bad possibility that would co from the complete rune.
'If everyone knows about my knowledge about the complete rune that can basically transform the entire Rune System as well as the blacksmith's Enchantnt… many kingdom will either form a connection with or try to kill for the information.
'Either way, it can also be my last trump card if I can't avenge my parents by myself. Marrying to another kingdom and force them to help is also an option, but for now, I want to do it by myself. Hence, I need to gain enough reputation first before showing the whole rune if I don't want this kingdom seizing this power. Well, I can even make a unique school about rune in my territory which will allow to gain so connections with the nobles who will send their people to learn from . Yeah, there are many ways to use it, so I don't have to rush everything for the ti being.'
Noel's expression brightened as they reached Rick's room. Noel also took another look at the incomplete runes.
'Rune itself is just an imaginary power of a single word. The runes embedded into this armor are Harden, Dispersion, and Flexible. In fact, this Dispersion is the exact sa thing as my Spiritual Energy Dispersion Rune.
'In fact, all my runes like Increase Agility, Strength Blessing, Spiritual Energy Dispersion, and Chain Bind Rune can be described by a single word that is embedded to that rune itself. Agility, Strength, Dispersion, and Chain Runes. Anna's Duplication Rune is the sa.
'The embedding process uses the advantage of Demon's parts which are rich in Spiritual Energy, making them a perfect conductor to Spiritual Energy. That's why that's the only way to create a Spiritual Equipnt… I think?
'Well, I have spare Honor Points that I can use to upgrade my Rune Mastery, but I'll wait after my expedition to the Sword Saint Tomb since I might need to use it at that ti.'
While Noel was thinking, Rick had picked up his tools and ca to him. "Noel. Are you ready?"
"Yes, I'm ready. But what are you planning to do?" Noel asked.
"It's simple. You put your armor on so that I can activate the Spiritual Enchantnt. After this, you won't have any problem in activating those runes by yourself."
"Ah! Alright…" Noel nodded in agreent, knowing what he had to do. However, this armor was supposed to be worn underneath his clothes, so… "Wait a minute, doesn't that an…"
"Yes. Please strip." Rick smiled, confirming it without hesitation.
"Well…" Noel made a wry smile. He didn't really mind taking off his shirt to put the armor on and since he was commoner, there was no need to care about others' opinion. But… Noel couldn't help but look at the side.
Yes, there was Rica in the room. Anna had seen his body, so he didn't really mind, but he wondered what the other party thought. It could be considered a harassnt after all.
"Rica. Leave the room a bit!" Rick glanced to his sister.
"Wait, what? Can't I stay? I just have to not look, right?" Rica was bewildered.
"Be a proper lady and wait outside!" Rick was adamant in making her leave to the point he dragged her out of the room before locking the door.
When they were busy among themselves, Noel had taken off his shirt and put on this armor.
It was quite tight even for him. It felt like he was wearing a thick layer of tight clothes. But surprisingly, he didn't feel restrained at all. The armor could match his body movent as if it was continuously expanding and shrinking.
"The only adjustnt that has to be made is the Flexible Enchantnt. I have to fit your body." Rick explained while taking out a Mid Level Demon Crystal and a few Low Level Demon Crystals. He then connected the Crystals and the Rune with his fingers.
Just like how Roel taught him how to focus the Spiritual Energy into a certain part, Rick seed to be able to do the sa as his hand beca the bridge of the Spiritual Energy between the rune and the crystals.
The armor gradually beca less tight. In fact, he felt more comfortable this way.
"This is how you make an adjustnt. You have to feed the Enchantnt with Spiritual Energy from the Demon Crystal. It'll gradually expand in size while matching your body contour. I've heard that you've learned about this technique when helping my father."
"Ah, yes. That's why you said I could make the adjustnt, right?"
"Yes. Even if we didn't et you, you could do it yourself with so instructions."
"Showing it is better." Noel nodded, assuring him that he didn't mind either way.
Rick smiled and continued feeding the rune until Noel confird it was the right size. After that, he said, "How about channeling your Spiritual Energy to the other Enchantnts to test it?"
Noel nodded and poured the Spiritual Energy to the Harden Rune. He realized that the armor beca stiffer, making it hard to move. But he didn't feel much pain when he hit the armor.
He understood that Harden Rune would be extrely effective but he had to use it at a perfect timing.
After confirming its effect, Noel tried the second rune, the Dispersion Rune. This ti, he used Spiritual Energy to punch his stomach. As expected, the Dispersion Rune scattered the Spiritual Energy, lowering the impact.
Roel knew that Noel would be fighting against the Demon, so Dispersion Rune would benefit him in the long run, since the demons could use Spiritual Energy from Mid Level Demon onward.
Depending on how he used it, the armor would beco another form of weapon for him. But what satisfied him the most was when he put back on his clothes. It certainly made him look a bit buffed, but it wasn't much to the point others would notice the difference. Only those who had known him would notice it.
"How is it?" Rick asked.
"There's no problem. I can get used to this in less than a week since there's not much difference."
"Great. That ans we've delivered your request completely." Rick smiled.
"How should I pay you? I even make you use Demon Crystals."
"Please don't mind about it. Our father is already thankful enough to fix this ssy family. If he knows that I'm taking your money whether forced or not, I'll be beaten up. I also do it because I want to repay you."
"I see. Thank you." Noel nodded. "Still, since you have arrived here, I can bring you around. That much should be fine, right?"
"I have wandered around for the past few days. If you don't mind, you should bring Rica around since she must be sulking right now."
"Ahaha, will do." Noel chuckled. "Then…"
"Yes." Rick waved his hand, seeing him off while cleaning up.
