Chapter 1899 Hex Abyssal Armguards with Asmodeous’ Blessings
1899 Hex Abyssal Armguards with Asmodeous’ Blessings
The castle depository was filled with various regular artifacts as well as Hex artifacts.
These artifacts had been used in the demon magic circle to act as conduits for the surplus of demonic energy as well as to balance out any lack of demonic energy during certain times.
Since Yona and Shaai had destroyed the castle"s formations, the artifacts were no longer tied to the demon magic circles. This meant they could be freely taken out.
Among the a.s.sortment of artifacts, there were ancient talismans inscribed with runes of protection, and intricate amulets adorned with gemstones that seemed to s.h.i.+mmer with inner light, indicating the fact that they could unlock new Skills for those who broke it as a one-time use.
There were some weapon-based artifacts carved with ancient symbols, highlighting their demonic heritage. Then some defensive-type artifacts were either one-time or multi-time use.
One had to note that most of the artifacts and items were ideal to be used by S-Ranked ent.i.ties. These items just floated motionlessly inside the depository, waiting to be claimed by those who had captured the castle.
"Hm? This… this looks interesting."
Shaai"s eyes lit up when she came across a crystal orb among a series of floating artifacts arranged in a circle. Upon closer inspection, she realized it was an S-Ranked elemental amplifier, a rare artifact coveted by Elementalists like herself.
"This… this is just perfect for me. I"m taking this," Shaai chuckled as she grabbed the artifact unceremoniously.
Holding it in her hands, Shaai could feel the raw energy pulsating within, resonating with her own elemental powers.
"Hmm. I will take these. They look so different from what Eren normally creates," Jolly said as he approached a certain set.
It was a set of bracers crafted from a dark metal that seemed to have l.u.s.t Mana Runes. They offered agility-based perks and an a.s.sa.s.sination-related inherent Skill. The set was a no-brainer choice for Jolly.
He recognized them as Hex artifacts, imbued with demonic enchantments that could enhance his own abilities as a wielder of Sin Series powers. Although these runes etched over the artifacts were ancient, the rare metals used in the making of the bracers were exceptional.
The bracers could amplify the user"s proficiency in wielding Sin Series powers. They also offered a layer of protection against a range of demonic debuffs.
The bracers could ward off the charming skills cast by the user"s opponents. As such, one could call these bracers anti-Empusa Bracers as well.
A spectral notification popped in Jolly"s psyche as soon as he wrapped the bracer set with his Soul Sense. It highlighted other details about the bracelet that he hadn"t figured out before.
[ Hex Abyssal Armguards with Asmodeous" Blessings
Enhanced Sin Series Manipulation: The bracers amplify the user"s proficiency in wielding Sin Series powers, granting greater control and potency over their abilities related to l.u.s.t, desire, and manipulation.
Protection Against debuffs related to demon magic: Infused with ancient enchantments, the bracers offer a layer of protection against malevolent ent.i.ties and dark forces, s.h.i.+elding the wearer from curses, hexes, and psychic attacks.
Amplified Strength and Stamina Skill: When activated, the bracers imbue the user with enhanced physical strength and stamina, allowing them to endure prolonged battles and exert greater force in combat situations. For the users with a.s.sa.s.sin Profession, the Skill can not be used once every week.
Aura of l.u.s.tful Intimidation: The potent Sin Series Runes etched over the set can help cast debuffs on their opponents, instilling l.u.s.t and desire in adversaries, weakening their resolve, and making them more susceptible to manipulation.
Hex Infusion: The bracers can infuse nearby objects or weapons with Hex energy, imbuing them with additional intent-based magic and granting temporary enhancements such as increased damage or elemental effects.
Sin Series Emotion Absorption: In dire situations, the bracers can absorb and neutralize sinful emotions directed at the wearer, converting them into fuel for their own powers and replenis.h.i.+ng the user"s reserves. Ideal to be used with the Aura of l.u.s.tful Intimidation for synergetic results.
Hex Warding: The bracers can create a protective barrier using Hex magic, deflecting the elemental attacks cast by enemy pract.i.tioners and nullifying their effects before they can harm the wearer. For the a.s.sa.s.sin Profession, this Skill can only be used once per week. ]

"d.a.m.n. So many perks and blessings on a single artifact? No wonder those Demon Princes have a cult following," Aksai thought to himself and sighed.
"Hehe. All the more reason to keep these bracers to myself and crack their manufacturing codes. The Elder Ichor faction members would soon get to use something very interesting," he thought to himself.
Jolly could use these bracers for himself. But he obviously had a bigger goal as one of Eren"s pseudo-avatars.
He could create a detailed a.n.a.lysis of the runes and send them to Eren, who could then pa.s.s it down to Kalen Eldric- another of Eren"s pseudo-avatars who was given the responsibility of making Hex artifacts for the Elder Ichor faction.
Eren had already unlocked the ability to create Blessing Templates. He just needed to find a way to bless the artifacts using the templates.
Soon the bracer-like artifact set in Jolly"s possession could be produced on a relatively ma.s.sive scale. The bracers and other similar artifacts based on the unique demonic runes could then be used by the members of the Elder Ichor faction.
One had to say that Eren and all seven of his pseudo-avatars were very business-oriented. They could think about how to grow the Elder Ichor faction while ensuring their personal interests were not harmed in the process.

Jolly was busy thinking about a lot of things at once when his chain of thoughts was broken by someone calling his name.
"Jolly, you should check this one out," Yona said as she approached a particular item. Her eyes fell upon a weathered tome bound in leather, its pages filled with demonic symbols and diagrams.
As she flipped through its pages, she sensed it was written in an encrypted language that could only be decrypted by someone with profound proficiency in using the Sin Series Marks.
Even as the Witch G.o.ddess Two Lips" incarnation, Yona would have many difficulties in decrypting the language and knowing what was written inside it without destroying the tome in the process.
"Hmm? Let me see," Jolly saved the Abyssal Armguards in his Inventory before appearing beside Yona.
He took the book from her and channeled his Sin Series Mana through it. In the next moment, the encrypted demonic font started changing, allowing Jolly to read the content.
"This is…" Jolly had a shocked expression on his face as he realized what the book was about.
