n2nd fragment of Bracelet of Immortality found

nThe announcement brought such a wide smile on Ryder's face that the others were confused as to why he was suddenly so happy.

n'So the Nature Healing Crystal was the fragment of Bracelet of Immortality. I guess the Demon Emperor didn't know that when setting up this quest for class promotion. He helped me so much!' Ryder thought to himself.

"Incredible,

" Ryder kept staring at his stats for quite some time. Not only has he gained stats because of his instant increase of 10 levels, but all his stats were also doubled.

nHe opened the description of Ruler of Nature to see if it was as useful as Ruler of Time or not.

nRuler of Nature: Nature is the basis of life. Not only humans but all the species depend on it. The one that controls nature has the potential to control their lives.

nSkills: Passive Skill: Double Growth

nActive Skill: Blessed by Nature

nRyder tapped on the Passive Skill first to see what it was all about.

nDouble Growth: Every growth that the person achieves is doubled. The Stat Points received after every level up will be doubled. The experience gained will be doubled.

n(Limitation: Doesn't work on body proportions like height and weight)

n'So it's something like a growth booster. I wonder how it will work in the real world. I can see some potential for it,' He thought as he rubbed his chin while looking at the screen.

nAmelia and the others just looked at him weirdly.

n

"Is he going crazy?

" Raphtalia asked Dale, who was keeping an eye on her, but she shut her mouth when she saw Dale glaring at her as if he didn't appreciate the insult of Ryder.

nRale just decided to wait, on the other hand. Although he didn't know what Ryder was doing, he believed that it must be something important for him.

n

"Is he pretending to look mysterious?

" Princess Olivia asked as she frowned.

n

"Sister, just let him be. There must be a reason,

" Princess Amelia replied.

nRyder, on the other hand, didn't care for what the others must be thinking about him as he closed the window and opened the description of the active Skill 'Blessed by Nature,'

nBlessed by Nature:

nSkill 1: Infinite Healing

nSkill 2: Locked (Level not enough)

nSkill 3: Locked (Level not enough)

n'It's a set of 3 skills as well?' He let out in surprise.

nHe clicked on Infinite Healing to see if it actually meant he was thinking.

nInfinite Healing:

nWhen used Infinite Healing, even the deadliest of wounds can be healed in a second.

n(Warning: The Infinite Healing can't be used to heal deadly wounds an Infinite number of times at low levels)

nCurrent limit: For life-threatening harm: 8 times a day.

nFor Non-Life Threatening Wounds: Infinite Number of times in a day.

n(Note: Infinite Healing depends on the level of the user. Every 10 levels increases limit by 2)

n'So that's what it is? If I'm shot by a gun, I can heal myself completely in an instant? It sucks that I can't use it an infinite number of times on damage like that, but then again, the time will just rewind. It just makes it too difficult for me to be killed,' Ryder thought smilingly.

nHe closed the screen and glanced towards Rale and the others, who looked at him blankly.

n

"Alright. Let's leave,

" Ryder said as he started walking towards the exit.

nAmelia walked closer to him as she asked,

"What were you doing standing there? Were you having an enlightenment?

"

n

"Yeah, it's something like that. Anyway, why are you talking to me as if you're my friend? Have you forgotten that I'm a thief?

" Ryder inquired as he looked at her with an amused smile on his face.

n

"Yeah, you're a thief, but you're my savior as well. You could have killed so many to take the crystal, but you chose the peaceful way. I don't think that you're really that bad. You must have a reason for taking the Nature Healing Crystal, right? I don't think it's because you're greedy or because you're a thief,

" Princess Amelia said to Ryder with an innocent look on her face.

n

"The two of you are sisters, yet you're so different. You're so friendly to me, whereas your sister is looking at me as if she wants to eat me,

" Ryder chuckled as he glanced back at Olivia, who was glaring at him.

n

"My sister is really nice, but she doesn't trust humans so easily,

" Amelia said.

n

"Why do you trust humans, then?

" Ryder asked her.

n

"Because I haven't seen humans before. The first human I saw is you, and you don't seem like a bad person,

" Princess Amelia replied.

n

"Believe me, girl, you have no idea about humans,

" Ryder couldn't help but laugh as he heard her words.

n

"Will, you ever return to our Empire after you leave?

" She asked again.

n

"I'm not sure. It's possible that I might come here in the future,

" He replied. He wasn't sure if there would be another quest that needed him to come here or not. Anything was possible.

n

"I've never been outside our Royal City. Can you tell me how the world outside is? Is it really as terrible as I have heard?

" she asked.

n

"What have you heard about the outside?

" Ryder inquired.

n

"I heard that the outside world is a dark place. People kill each other for greed. They destroy nature. I even heard that they eat each other?

" She replied to him.

n

"I agree with all of them except the first one. It's quite a beautiful place outside if you know where to look. The thing about them killing each other is true as well, and there are a few species that eat others like the Dragon Race that eats weaker people,

" Ryder replied.

nThey were already at the exit, and when they finally stepped out of the ancestral temple, they were all stunned as they saw the King standing there with his army.
