Chapter 12 - Khione

As I look around the room, I panicked seeing that there was not a single exit here. I don't know what I will have to do now. Right now I'm in a state of dilemma. I will start to starve at this rate and eventually die. I can't die, I have many more things to do mostly my revenge.

I started to think bad things and it's making me more panicked than before. Ok Ave, we need to calm down. Let's first search the room and see if there is something useful that will help me get out of this dungeon. With that thought, I started to search the room.

The first thing I searched is the books. I tried to pick one book at the bottom of the shelf because clearly I can't reach the ones at the top. So I picked one book from the shelf and tried to read it but sadly I don't understand a single thing. This was the first time I saw this letters, it was weird and new to me.

I tried picking other books at the bottom of the shelf too but it was also the same result. Every book has the same letters that I am unfamiliar with. I also tried getting the books at the top with the help of my two shadows but it also has the same letters. For now I should stop looking at the bookshelf.

I looked at the surrounding again and there are only two places that I haven't checked yet which are the bed and the table. I walked towards the table with my four paws because it is closer than the bed.

When I was already at the table, I also saw books which I tried to open and read but I was again faced with the same result. I took back the books and closed it. Then I saw something in the corner of the table. It was color black and blue. It gave me a freezing feel even though I am not touching it. It was a ring. I did not dare to touch it because I felt danger so I use Appraisal at the ring.

A godly equipment! I don't know if I should get it but even if I get it, I can't wear it. The ring will not fit my finger because it's small or even my arm because it's too big. Thinking how I should get this equipment for a while, I then got a idea. I don't know if this will work but I wish I do.

So I picked the ring even though my hands are freezing because of the cold. I can even see ice forming at my paws which made me shiver. I commanded one of my shadow to get the ring and put it in my tail. I wish it will work.

I prayed to every god that I know, wishing that this will work.

I learned many skills again. It is good because with ice magic it will help me have good offense and defense. I also know that Ice Magic is good for crowd controlling and disabling.

I then appraised the Ring of Khione.

I think the one with this [ ] are the percentage increase from my ring. My ice skills are also already level 2 thanks to the ring also. I realized that, not only is personal growth strong but also the equipment. This became an inspiration for me to find other equipments with the same effect.

I looked at the ring at my tail which was surprisingly not there. I don't know where it went but the place where the ring was, was replaced with a tattoo of a snowflake. It was blue which makes it noticable with my white tail. It looked cool and I liked it because with this the ring won't be noticed and stolen from me.

I then appraised the two skills that I have which are Ice Magic and Ice Resistance.

Ice Magic (Level 2):

Can make Tier 2 ice magic.

Ice Resistance (Level 2):

Can resist Tier 2 ice magic by 50% and completely resist Tier 1 ice magic.

Oh this is amazing! I tried using Ice magic and I was happy that I can summon Ice arrows and ice daggers which I can throw and move freely but the mana points are the caused for using it. The cost of mana depends on how powerful the ice magic is.

I also let my shadow clones try ice magic and they can successfully wield it but they can only do weaker versions of my ice magic. Maybe they can only do Level 1 ice magic which is also good.

After practicing my control of ice magic, I looked at the last place in the room which was the bed so I walked towards it with a happy expression.
