"So everything else from here on is mine because I succeeded?"
I knew that was a super valuable ring, but my enemies were human.
"Normally people fail 9 out of 10 times when making a ring, I suspect you only succeeded because of the mythic crafting ring in your possession. But you're the best suited to use it."
Cannon man said that all the rest of the things I crafted were mine.
I was going to make Q an ability ring that suited her best. Id already thought about how I wanted to build her abilities.
I put in the wing of a thousand-year-old heart beast.
I poured in my mana again and thought about creating pressurized air.
After the thousand had been poured in I opened the top of the chest and pulled out a ring that had a hawk soaring through the endless sky.
"You succeeded again? You're making all the crafters in this village look like mess arounds."
I laughed and said "It actually took me 2 months of training and my entire family fortune to reach this level of success. And I can only make two more at this rate."
His eyes softened after hearing how I had prepared. He must have thought I was just generating these on the spot.
"Young man the way to tell the grade of a ring is the image on it. If it's moving then its a legendary ring. You should let me hold onto and test out that ring for you."
It's not like I had a choice plus cannon man was supposed to be a protector of humanity or something so it should be fine.
I handed him the ring and went back to crafting.
I put the scales of a thousand year old desert lizard into the chest and thought about sunscreen as hard as I could. As I poured my mana into the chest.
I reached in and pulled out another ring it had the image of a lizard sunbathing.
" Haha perfect now I have sunscreen," I said while I twirled the ring.
As I turned around expecting to see the old man looking at me in praise again. I felt a searing sensation of pain across my face.
"By god you are the most ignorant kid I've ever met you used your chance at a legendary ring to make sunscreen. Do you even know what legendary rings are capable of when you cultivate to a high enough level?"
So that's why he had slapped me. Ya, I knew a powerful cultivator with a legendary ring could defy the laws of the universe for a short period of time.
Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon.
But I wanted to ignore the laws of the universe passively, and if my guess was right that ring didn't take mana to use so it was perfect for me.
"You can't have this ring no matter what," I told him with a smug smile.
He facepalmed and exclaimed precisely "that's a waste of a ring you do know that will take up a slot and your first slot is what people typically scale all of there abilities off of."
I guess I was gonna become the legendary sunscreen man because I didn't want to get skin cancer.
Of course, I didn't say that out loud, it was time to make my final masterpiece for this I had selected the tail of a snow panther that was two thousand years old. It was one of the oldest pieces in the safe.
"I don't care how much of a genius you are if you make something dumb with that ill throw you out of the outpost myself. Grand elder was only able to find that through risking his life."
Whatever I thought too myself as I casually tossed it into the chest.
This time I made a palm striking gesture to touch the chest and pretended like I was working hard on crafting. I poured out all of my remaining mana into the chest while thinking about being able to control one's abilities like the snow leopard used its tail to control its body.
I didn't open the chest this time instead I turned around and asked cannon man in a level tone.
"I trust senior can take care of this ring until the time that I need it"
He rushed over and opened the chest inside was a ring that was beautiful.
It showed a snow leopard bouncing between rocks with the utmost grace.
"Another legendary ring haha have I gone mad? This one isn't useless this crafting session can be considered the biggest success in our outposts history"
I was stunned I had just saved up my potential for this moment was it really that great?
I had to ask "How many legendary rings are in this fortress?"
He turned around and addressed me "There are two and neither of them was crafted in fact in both of them were found in these ruins and were not crafted. The mythic ring that you using right now was made at the expense of a person's life. Only mythic rings have ever been crafted here.
