When the magic formula was activated, gray-white mana flowed out.
The mana flowed from the ring spread as if it were alive.
Ordinary Artifacts also radiate magical energy when activated, but they do not spread in this strange form.
It’s just a phenomenon that happens when it’s activated.
It didn’t seem like that.
“Skadi, isn’t this going to hurt me or something?”
[The delusion is too much.]
… … Well, joke about it.
Although some time had passed since the artifact was activated, not much had changed.
The grayish-white mana that flowed out also stabilized and ceased to rise gently.
“Isn’t this an artifact? Nothing has changed.”
Even if I recall the memories of my previous life, the artifact had to feel something instinctively the moment it was activated.
Helping in battle meant changing the body.
But now it didn’t feel like that at all.
[Can’t you feel it?]
“huh?”
[I’m asking if you can’t feel this change.]
“I don’t know.”
[Try using the magic of darkness.]
As Skadi said, he drew out the magic of darkness.
Then, I was involuntarily amazed at the output that spread without hesitation.
“… … and.”
When he signed a contract with Skadi in his 2-star body, he could barely squeeze out the darkness.
It got a little better after reaching 3 stars, but it was still at a minor level.
But now it was out of the insignificant level.
It was a level that could never be reached with the physical body.
“what is this?”
It was not unreasonable to be surprised.
Whether it was a warrior or a wizard, there was a way to increase one’s strength through methods other than training.
Artifacts, tools or weapons, potions that increase strength, certain magic, etc.
All of them are of considerable value, but what was clear was that there was such a way.
However, there was no such method in the spirit’s power.
“To increase the power of spirits, is this possible?”
The only way to increase the spirit’s power was to raise the level.
The reason is that magic is required to consume the spirit’s power.
Skadi once told me that it is the vessel of the soul that enhances that power.
This vessel could be expanded only by raising the realm.
[It’s an artifact related to the soul.]
“Isn’t it that it doesn’t directly affect the body, so you can’t feel the change?”
Even so, I had never heard of such a thing.
In my previous life, I lived fiercely and developed my strength, so I had a lot of knowledge about it.
I, too, had never heard of such a thing.
“Then let’s grab each one and try it.”
Artifacts are all things engraved with spells on accessories or weapons.
It takes skill to use it properly.
It was both a tool and a weapon.
In order to deal with it to the limit, I had to accumulate experience using the artifact.
It was possible to show proficiency above a certain level regardless of the type.
After all, this is also dealing with magic.
It was enough if he had innate talents, senses, and experience in handling other artifacts.
Jiying.
He activated the spell engraved on the ring and sharpened his senses.
This was an action because the effect could not be properly measured just by operating the artifact.
Even if you can’t feel it with your body, you can tell by using magic formulas, analyzing, and examining it.
coo coo coo.
At the same time, darkness overflowed.
It was an output I wouldn’t have dared to think about before using Artifact, but I didn’t have time to worry about it now.
I had to find out exactly what the effect of this artifact was.
Tsutsutsutsutsu!
In order to deeply understand the formula, the operation rate must be increased.
That’s why, I was slowly increasing the operation rate while watching the flow of energy.
Every time that happened, I felt the power of darkness welling up.
At the same time, the consumption of mana was moving towards the end.
Paperweight!
That was the moment.
Sparks flew from the ring, as if to prevent further investigation.
Although I have seen cases where the user is inexperienced or unable to handle the artifact’s performance due to lack of magical power.
I had never heard of someone reacting in this way.
“… … what is this?”
I still had some magic left, but I stared at the ring without saying a word.
[To tell you what I felt, it was as if a padlock had been locked.]
“Is it locked?”
[Yes, it felt like it was blocked so that the operation rate would not go up any further.]
“Um… … .”
I nodded at Skadi’s words.
I didn’t feel the change directly like she did, but I felt a similar sensation.
“Are there more hidden effects?”
As a result of using it, it was clear that it had A-level performance.
However, there seems to be something more, but it felt like something was blocked by the conditions.
“You will find out in time.”
Pausing for a moment, I looked down at the ring and smiled.
It was clear that it was an A-level artifact that I had originally hoped for.
Besides, there could be hidden effects beyond that, so I couldn’t help but feel good.
“Fortunately, it’s also the perfect effect for me.”
Even though it was an artifact, not all users could bring out the optimal effect and efficiency.
To put it a little extreme, an artifact that is only good for a warrior cannot be good for a wizard.
From that point of view, this was a really useful artifact for me.
“Skadi, if my level rises, this output will increase proportionally, right?”
[It will. Or the rate of amplification may be greater than now.]
The current output that can be drawn through artifacts has been significant.
It was an unbelievable level of power that a three-star wizard could handle.
In other words, this meant that it would be like that in the future.
Whether it’s a 4-star or a 5-star, each time the level rises, it can produce more output.
‘If this is the case, I will easily surpass me in my previous life when it comes to spirits.’
Simple combat abilities are more highly regarded by elemental magicians than by ordinary wizards.
It is not only the only artifact that amplifies the power of the spirit, but also has potential that has yet to be revealed.
In terms of value, it was considered to surpass ordinary A-class artifacts.
Depending on the hidden effect, the possibility of becoming more than that was sufficient.
At this, I continued to laugh without reason.
[Stop flirting, it doesn’t seem to exist.]
“How can you not stop laughing?”
[I wouldn’t be able to write it openly anyway.]
“That is a bit of a pity.”
Although it has been some time since I signed a contract with Skadi.
I had no intention of revealing the fact that I had contracted with the spirit yet.
I’ve experienced enough in my previous life how conspicuous a wizard who can use both spirits and magic is.
I’ll reveal it someday, but at least not now.
“Wouldn’t it be better to hide the obtained artifact?”
[If the effect is known, the fact of the contract may be revealed, so I think it’s better to hide it for now.]
“From now on, this artifact should be called the Heavenly Spirit.”
[If anyone sees it, they will know that they have a lover.]

Leaving behind Skadi’s sarcasm.
Holding the heavenly spirit on his index finger, he thought about what was to come.
“It will take me two years to graduate.”
It was about Hasla.
I had to take four promotion tests to graduate from Hasla.
Two years was an estimate of how long it would take to get through it.
I could see it once every six months, so it was set as the shortest period.
“Um… … But is it really best to go here?”
[What do you mean by asking me that?]
“I’m talking to myself, I’m talking to myself.”
I hate to say this with my own mouth, but I grew up in a pretty rough environment.
I trained in hiding to avoid the checks of my brothers, and threw myself into dangerous work to prove my worth.
So, can a lukewarm atmosphere like an academy really help my growth?
… … It was the same concern.
“It’s good to date people, but I feel like growing up is a bit disappointing.”
[I think there will be no problem with growth. I have previous life experiences.]
“Actually, it’s more like impatience.”
The best thing about entering Hasla was the contact with the first prince, Morgan Alexander.
Since you can come face to face with them, it must be easy to get noticed.
“It has the advantage of being quick to hit and easy to hit, but… … .”
This was neither arrogance nor conceit, but the truth.
Currently, the forces supporting Prince Morgan Alexander are huge.
I don’t know if it’s sturdy, but if you look at it normally, it’s hard to overturn.
If Morganan avoids a direct confrontation by pulling back, it will be difficult for me too.
Because Carl Ronberg did it.
[Are you okay? Like that guy with a knife, he could just instill a sense of vigilance.]
“According to Prince 2’s memories, they were treated almost like crap, right? The moment we meet, they will ignore me and belittle me?”
Rumors about me that spread throughout the capital must have reached Morgan’s ears.
However, considering Morgan’s disposition that remained in his memory, he thought that he wouldn’t mind too much.
That’s why there was something that boldly attracted attention.
“If I quickly go to Hasla and press it, it will be of great help in building my political base.”
This was not a thought born out of haste.
As time goes on, you don’t know what variables will arise.
I wouldn’t be in a hurry, but I thought it was a bad move in many ways to watch it leisurely.
It was then.
Bang!
I frowned at the sound of someone knocking on the door.
“what is this?”
It was very basic courtesy not to disturb anyone in the closed training room.
But I couldn’t help but frown because I didn’t care.
“My name is Albert, a member of the Royal Palace Knights, low! I have something to tell you quickly, so I committed this disrespect!”
The closed training room was basically thick-walled, so soundproofing was thorough.
Seeing him raise his voice high enough to break through that wall, I thought something had happened.
“Her Majesty’s orders were! Please come out soon!”
Hearing the urgent voice, I cleared my surroundings and opened the door.
The knight’s expression and the somewhat chaotic atmosphere of the series gave off an ominous feeling.
“What is going on?”
“War! News that a war has broken out on the Feyer continent!”
“… … !”
