An Extra’s POV

"Sir Seller… are you sure this is the Item you desire? There are better Items we have to offer, and I'm not sure this suits you… style."

As Aldred said this, Rey took one more look at the Item that was resting on his palm.

The Enchanted Item that Rey got was a ring. It had a pure white surface, with an amber crystal affixed at the top.

The amber gleam it had reminded him of Alicia, which was when he remembered a big blunder he made.

'I totally forgot about her!'

They had both exchanged glances and smiles numerous times that morning, so perhaps she was expecting them to hang out.

'My mind was so swamped that I didn't even remember her!' Rey had thought in a panic.

That was when he decided to make the most irrational—but emotionally satisfying choice.

"It's not… for me." Rey answered Aldred with a fleeting tone.

He could already see Noah grinning from behind his hooded disguise, and he felt like punching his teeth out.

'So what if I got it for Alicia? It's normal for friends to get each other stuff…'

The ring was extremely beautiful. The craftsmanship on its white surface felt surreal, and the gem looked very pretty.

'Like her eyes…'

Many would fault him for making such a foolish choice, but he simply felt it was the right thing to do.

'I can just come back to get my items. But, I feel this would really suit her.'

The 'White Amber', as the Ring was called, had two major functions.

The first, and major ability, that it had was the [Automatic Healing] that it had imbued to itself.

As long as the Item was on, the wielder would constantly get healed if they sustained any damage.

Of course, this effect could be turned off, but it was a safe bet against surprise attacks and helpless situations.

'Alicia has a Healing Skill, but it consumes a lot of Mana. With the White Amber, she should be a lot safer.'

Then, there was the second function.

'Can boost the physical abilities of its user for a limited time, and can only be used once a day…'

It had the perfect effect for Alicia, who was a Tamer, and had weaker physical stats compared to her other qualities.

Rey had given this a lot more thought than simply its aesthetic.
