Raine smiled and placed the previously unsold [Life Detection Badge] and the [Mining Wand] on the coffee table.
"Hmm? Mr. Rein, are you selling them directly?"
"Actually, if you’re not in a rush, auctioning this [Mining Wand] could fetch 10% to 20% more in gold coins."
Since Liya was present during the last appraisal, she was quite familiar with the two pieces of magic equipnt Raine presented.
"Sell directly."
"Also, I’d like to see what magic equipnt the association is selling here."
Since he was about to go on a rescue mission, Raine planned to further enhance his combat ability.
You can always earn more gold coins, but if you lose your life, keeping the gold is aningless.
"Okay, Mr. Rein, if you choose to sell the spoils to the association, the purchase price for the [Life Detection Badge] is 25 gold coins and 4 points, and the [Mining Wand] is 60 gold coins and 6 points, totaling 85 gold coins and 10 points altogether. Does that work for you?"
"Sure." Raine nodded.
He was already aware of the general price during the last appraisal.
He just didn’t expect the points reward, which was a pleasant surprise.
"Alright, I’ll fetch the magic equipnt catalog for you."
After Liya left, Elise glanced at Raine with her big eyes blinking.
"Mr. Rein, this necklace..."
As she spoke, Elise gestured to the [Deep Blue Pendant] hanging from her fair neck.
"Miss Elise, rember back in Dorne City, you sponsored my first piece of magic equipnt." Raine chuckled, patting the Obsidian Defender on his back.
"Consider this Deep Blue Pendant my return gift."
Upon hearing this, Elise blushed and lowered her head.
"Mr. Rein, this..."
anwhile, Elise was conflicted internally.
She couldn’t decide whether to refuse or accept.
In the Soladin Kingdom, when a man gifts sothing to a woman, especially an unmarried woman, it’s a clear signal of wanting to pursue a relationship.
In other words, if she accepts it, it’s akin to accepting Raine’s invitation to be his girlfriend.
Although she hadn’t known Raine for long, his character and strength had left a deep impression on her, and it wasn’t possible for her not to have any feelings.
Yet, the relationship was still a bit short of being a couple.
"Knock, knock, knock!"
Just as Elise was feeling conflicted, a knock on the door broke the mont again.
Liya ca over with a heavy album, placing it in front of Raine.
"Mr. Rein, this is the magic equipnt catalog for Black Iron Level mbers, provided by the association. You can take a look."
"So, does that an there’s also one for Bronze Level mbers?"
"Yes, Mr. Rein, but you’ll need to visit the Dorne City Association’s branch to view it." Liya smiled.
"Alright, let take a look."
Raine opened the heavy album decorated with ironwork, and inside, each piece of magic equipnt was illustrated in full color with accompanying descriptions.
The oil painting-like texture of the images, combined with the detailed descriptions, made it easy to grasp the features of the current magic equipnt at a glance.
Elise also leaned in with keen interest.
"Soul Blade, upon hitting, it can release a spiritual energy attack..."
"Protector’s Sword, the user can unleash a ’Sword Blade Twist’...."
"Ice Blade Axe, upon hitting, it can release a Subordinate Ice Blade..."
The front of the catalog featured weapons, but Raine understood clearly that with the aid of the Monster Skill, his current attack power was on par with Level 5 or even Level 6 Mages.
What he sowhat lacked was anti-control abilities, like nullifying immobilization or entanglent.
Given that he might face a Demon Mage next, he was contemplating how to choose his equipnt wisely this ti.
Thus, he quickly checked the catalog and turned to the armor section.
Just as he flipped to the armor section, the large words "Courage Set" jumped into Raine’s view.
"Huh? This is..."
"A set?"
This was a six-piece tal Armor set, comprised of a Helt, Shoulder Armor, Chest Armor, Leg Armor, War Boots, and Gloves.
The Helt featured a full-cover design, with spike-shaped jaw protection, safeguarding the face entirely, save for the eyes.
Two tal thrusts extended upwards from each side, unlike the rounded curve of a Horned Helt, presenting a straighter and more nacing look.
In contrast, the Chest Armor was more restrained without spikes.
However, the visibly thickened tal at the chest and abdon, with a central angular gem, likely had so unique effect, and the waist’s intricate buckle system seed adjustable in size.
The Shoulder Armor was the most eye-catching.
It was asymtrically designed: the left shoulder had one long and two short tal spikes resembling rhino horns, seemingly intended for ramming purposes.
The other side was smooth in appearance.
"Mr. Rein, this is the Courage Set, a piece of magic equipnt specially crafted by master blacksmiths for the Adventurer’s Association to address combat in special scenarios."
Seeing Raine’s gaze on the Courage Set, Liya imdiately introduced him to it.
"The Courage Helt, apart from the general protective effects of tal helts, also reduces the influence of charm and spirit control spells on the wearer."
"For instance, it can reduce the effects of the First Level Spell ’Charm Humans’ by nearly 70%."
Raine’s eyes flickered at this information.
Since Demon Mages typically excel in shadow damage and so charm or mind-control spells, the Courage Set might be an excellent choice.
