"You mean that grey cloak?" Gravis asked.

Elder Byron nodded. "Exactly, though that's not all." Then, he took out a grey ring. "Remember when we showed you our rings? This is an identical one, but for you. We don't want others to find us, do we?" asked Elder Byron with a slight laugh.

Gravis also laughed. "Of course not."

Gravis quickly retrieved the two things with his Spirit and then resummoned them on his body. The grey cloak completely enveloped his body and head, and no one would be able to recognize him like this. But Gravis was actually more interested in the ring. He remembered how it managed to keep the Greys hidden from his Spirit, which was a handy ability.

Gravis looked at the ring on his hand. As soon as he put it on, he felt a kind of membrane enveloping his body, which was probably the cloaking field that diverted the Spirits of others. He also felt his own Spirit and vision pass through it.

Elder Byron laughed a little. "The ring is great, isn't it?" he asked with a smirk.

"It also has a different effect," a voice came out of the ring on Gravis' right hand, which surprised him. He was sure that that was Elder Byron's voice.

Gravis looked at Elder Byron again. "This is a communication tool, as well?"

Elder Byron simply nodded. "We need to talk over long distances after all. Like this, we can communicate even when someone with a more powerful Spirit is close to you. If you get surrounded by others, you might need backup."

Gravis looked at the ring, smiled, but then shook his head. "I won't ask for backup. If I die, I die. If you always are ready to intervene, it won't be genuine life and death tempering."
