Karl showed his plan to the teachers who had come to study under him. "This is a bit more complex. I have four concepts all linked in a compound rune, then a detached string of modifiers to clarify the effects. But each of the strings has to be both complete as a concept, and grammatically separate from all the others, so that the effect does not bleed over. Because of this, the wording is very particular when you try to combine effects."
Moira frowned. "Is there a way around that? Where you might generate powerful effects without the need for an enormous item to hold so many characters worth of runes in such a particular format?"
Karl thought about it for a second, then an insidious thought came to his mind.
"Yes. There is a divine phrase that can help you accomplish that."
Karl wrote out three seemingly nonsensical runes, which were actually just ancient slang from the knowledge he had gained from [Runecrafting].
{Blind Box, Full Send, YOLO}
"If you inscribe that on your item, there is a chance to get a magnificently powerful item. Or you might get nothing. It really is up to your favour with the gods."
Moira and Mash both stared at the runes, then shrugged and carefully inscribed them into a pair of wooden rings and began to empower them.
The process finished, and one set of runes changed, while the other glowed faintly gold, signifying a success.
"What does that say?" Mash asked, as his ring had worked.
Moira wrote the runes, then mentally translated them. @@@@
"Thank you, please try again." She replied, phrasing it almost as a question.
Mash laughed, then used the [Identify] skill on his creation and wailed with agony.
"Evil, I summoned evil into the world!" He moaned.
Karl looked at the ring, his curiosity growing.
{Ring of the Narcissist} Any target of the wearer's lust or affection will appear to the wearer as a mirror image of themselves.
{Bracer of Fated Encounters} Artifact Grade Armour. Stores ten times the standard amount of mana. Increases user growth rates in all aspects, with an increased chance to surpass bottlenecks to growth. Increases skill power by 30% and luck by 100.
"That, that... It can't be. No, it's simply not possible to make something like that." Moira stammered.
Dana came in to see what the fuss was about, and Karl winked at her. "I think you should get the first of these." Karl announced, then distracted her with a kiss as he fastened the bracer around her wrist.
The armour piece duplicated the moment that it equipped, creating a matched set for both wrists. Normally, armoured bracers were enchanted as part of the whole arm piece, and equipped as a pair, but this was the first time that Karl had seen an item that cloned itself and didn't need a second half made.
"What is it supposed to do? I get skill power, but the rest is all so vague." Dana asked.
"It will help you grow more powerful and not get stuck at Rank bottlenecks. I suggest wearing it all the time, just in case." Karl suggested.
Dana nodded slowly, then summoned her Golems to see what sort of changes that much more skill power would make to her newly Monarch power level.
They appeared for half a second, then Karl saw a notification.
{Skill Master 4 Activation} By Target Dana
[Golem] has been upgraded to [Greater Golem]
She must have gotten a notification as well, because she frowned, and then walked to the window to summon her new Golem in the yard.
What appeared looked like the demonic cross between a wolf and a wingless stone dragon. The three-metre tall creature was all black, with a long, scaled dragon tail. The tail's draconic appearance extended to black scales over the creature's belly to its muscular chest, and sharp stone protrusions in place of fur all the way up its spine, as well as on its lower front limbs. The head was shaped halfway between a Dragon's muzzle and a wolf's, and flames glowed within its mouth. Its eyes looked like burning pits, as if the skull was hollow of anything but flames, reminding everyone that this was no simple creature. The whole body appeared to be made of stone, but it shifted and rippled like muscle as the creature turned to look up at Dana. Then its ears perked up, and a small puff of smoke came from its mouth as it huffed happily upon finding its summoner.
It was somehow terrifying and adorable at the same time. If it had a tongue, Karl was certain it would be lolling out happily right now.
Then, it shrunk down to just over a metre tall, and made its way inside to come bump up against Dana's leg, begging to have its ears rubbed.
[It's a canine Thor.] Rae laughed.
[Definitely. Not as big, though. At least it won't be trying to pull the wagon.] Remi agreed.
Well, that might depend on the size of the wagon. Golems had stamina that never ran out, and with a three-metre tall four-legged body, a Monarch Rank Golem would be no slouch.
