Chapter 41: Refinement
After dinner, Kael returned to his room and went straight to the bathroom to wash up.
When he was done, he sat down on the bed. Through the tall, wide window, which let in the moonlight, a silvery hue filtered through, illuminating the room with its brightness.
He looked at the two Zu he held in his hand.
The one he had obtained from the inheritance of the Bloody Wolf: it was opaque black, the size of a grape, with purple spots, spherical in shape, with two small, tightly closed eyes.
Zu Blood Claw. Rank 8.
The second, shaped like a grasshopper, had a jade exoskeleton, crystal wings, and a pair of white eyes, small like a centipede.
Zu Sealing Jade. Rank 9.
One of the three items Kael had chosen from the vault. The second most important one.
With this, I can use all my stat points without fear of my body collapsing.
Kael barely glanced at the Zu Blood Claw. His rank was insufficient to use it properly. Besides, he didn’t see its immediate usefulness.
He put it away again without further ado; he didn’t refine it because he would have to feed it even though he wasn’t using it, since the Zu are living beings.
