Chapter 95: Stellar pouches
The one she had received was of bright crimson color with some unique jewels embedded in the pouch.
"You know what? These pouches won't vanish even after we obtain the rewards inside of it."
The one he had received was obsidian with golden glitter all around it.
The glitter did not have a texture. The punch seemed to be made from a high quality fabric that itself had this glitter like shine to it.
"These pouches will start selling at high prices on the Otherworld market as <Stellar pouches>. And the demand for the pouches belonging to the people who had more stars in the event would be quite higher as well."
These pouches were an item as well, however, they only had a little bigger expanded space inside of them.
They were only used to store the rightful rewards of the participants but, while the natives kept it as a token of honor, the players treated it as a valuable collectible.
Unified Rank 10 <The Collector>, one of the richest people of the two worlds and someone that perhaps had the most items, things, valuables, [Relics] and [[Artifacts]] in the entire world would definitely want a specially valuable piece like the two of their pouches.
Alex had not seen such pouches on the market so she at least knew the ones that the two of them had, had something special about them.
"Let's open them together."
"As you wish, my lazy."
"My Lady, not lazy."
"Oh right… I'm lazy, not you."
She smacked his head when he made that shit joke and pushed him off the bed.
"We will open it together."
"Aww... that hurt."
He did not like falling off of the bed. This has happened more than a few times since he arrived in this town.
"Why do you keep pushing me, woman? I'm not some rock on the street that you can just kick as you want."
He got up and smacked her head- got slapped in return- then they fought for five minutes and when they were done- they finally got back to what they were actually doing.
"Hmph."
His face was red from the slaps and she was angry. It wasn't her fault that he was acting like that.
None of it might have happened had he not acted like that. For hitting a pretty lady like her He was a bastard indeed!
"Open it now. I don't even wanna do a countdown."
She opened her crimson pouch and a golden light blasted from it.
-Oooooooooooong!
A unique sword slowly floated out of the pouch that had a glow of its own.
There was a gem as bright blue as her eyes embedded on the handle of this sword. The blade of the sword seemed to be made from some kind of blue metal instead of steel.
The edge of the blade was so sharp looking that as Elio looked at it, he could directly feel its unfathomable sharpness on his eyes.
The sword was one handed, not a great sword or a two handed sword. It was just the perfect weapon for hers.
The sword was not covered in any sheath, so they could see all of its magical beauty.
"Wow…"
The sword seemed like one of those mythical weapons talked about in the stories, the weapon of the Hero.
Elio could also feel the vast energy contained within this weapon with his {Mana senses}.
As soon as the sword came out of the pouch and fell into her hands, he could also tell how unique this weapon was.
It was unlike any other sword that he had seen after coming to this place. It is almost on par with the strange white sword that Alex carried around.
"What kind of sword is that?"
This weapon was a unique item, that much one could tell just from the blue body of the blade.
The unique handle that seemed to have been carved by the hands of a Master was also something that attracted his attention.
This one weapon… he could tell she might have been able to defeat even that dark magician if she had it at that time.
"Oh? Isn't this good?"
A smile appeared on her face…
And then, she took out her white sword, and placed the tip of the new blue sword that she had just obtained on the sheath of her pretty white sword.
-Oooooooooong.
The sword that she had just obtained and the sword that she carried around all the time reacted, a red energy then slid out of the sheath covered sword, and wrapped all around the blue blade.
The sword that seemed precious and highly valuable, something that Elio knew was worth more than a few gold coins, vanished along with the red energy that slid back inside the sheath.
"..."
Elio had no idea what just happened, but what he had just seen logically meant that the precious sword that she had just obtained was devoured by the sword that she carried around all the time.
"What the hell?"
He was confused. But Alex just shook her head without saying anything as she placed the sword back into the corner that she usually puts it in.
"You are not going to tell me what just happened either, are you?"
"There will come a time, hehe."
She was smiling happily.
There was a unique playfulness in her eyes, one that said she was waiting for a good moment to tell him about what had just happened.
She wanted to have fun with this oblivious side of him, so she just smiled happily at him. And, he sighed deeply after seeing that smile.
"Haaa… I'm too tired for all this."
He just wanted to get this over with, so, he opened his purplish black pouch with golden shine as well…
-Ooooooooooong!
Instead of a golden light, this time, a silver light blasted from the pouch and what came out of it surprised the two of them…
"Woah."
It was not a sword, yet it surprised Alex.
It was an item. This was a very rare item.
It was so rare that Elio, who was tired of anything and would not have been affected by even a dragon at the moment, got surprised by this object as well.
"These are precious, Elio."
"I know…"
Even in her long journey, she had only come across twelve of these. And of those twelve, six had protected her in critical situations at the cost of their own lives.
"What… should I do with this?"
The thing that he obtained from the pouch was a card.
A precious item that was called <Servent Cards> by the players, and <Fragments of forgotten epics> by the natives of this world.
The object he was holding right now was not something simple. Not many existed in this world and all that were known to exist, were already owned by various individuals.
They were precious.
Extremely precious.
"What do you want to do with it?"
And now that he had obtained one as well, it was entirely up to him if he wanted to put it up for auction and get hundreds or perhaps thousands of gold for it, or accept it as his own and add a new member to their growing party.
