Chapter 203: Invention
"Hmm, rhis is Kazimir’s dungeon huh..." Rein looked around, "everything seems to be just how I’ve left it, Rein jumped into the hole that led to where he fought the statues.
"The statues are still intact...what about the ones I could not fight..." Rein was shocked.
"One had a silver belt, one had a short sword and one had a necklace, all three is gone... someone else came here?!!!"
{Correct}
"...but!!!" Rein was rather disappointed. He showed a let down face.
Jihi dragged his clothe, "Friend sad?"
He rubbed her head, "Don’t worry, Jihi I’m okay" ’but I must say, uve rather grown fond of the care this girl gives me’ Rein sucked all the gold statues into his inventory.
Immediately the dungeon began to shake and crumble.
"Eh, what is happening...?"
{Immediately presence of gold statues are missing, dungeon will crumble preventing anyone from going outside, the only way to stop it is to stand on the initial position of the statue}
Rein quickly stepped on the place the one of the gold statue used to stand, to his surprise the crumbling stopped, Rein grinned, "I see, makes more sense... now I understand what they meant by trap, but did they think I was dumb or something... I wonder how they planned to make me stay here till they leave...Jihi come over here"
Jihi ran to Rein, he placed her on his back, "hold on tightly."
"Yes" she blushed.
"Flashspeed" Rein ran outside and watched as the dungeon crumbled to dust. He returned to the outskirts of Tenka and placed a teleportation order through the portal door they came out from which was like a checkpoint.
He got teleported at once.
After coming out of the teleportation machine he was greeted by the bishop with two knights behind him, "Sir, may I have my money?"
Rein placed a small pouche on his hand, "for me and and kid"
"Your surbodinates came earlier, seems like they were in a lot of hurry, did something happen?"
"Is sticking nose in people’s business a bishop’s called work?"
The knights were about to draw their swords but the bishop stopped them.
"You are rude, is it because we have placed you on a high horse by esteemed you as a graduate of the academy"
"I’m sorry bishop. I’m not just a fan of churches, if you’ll excuse me" Rein passed the bishop and continued to go his way.
"Not a fan of churches huh... this one is rather interesting."
{Incoming}
Even before Ariel announced Rein could sense it, something was approaching him.
Rein stretched out his hand to catch it.
{I’ll advice you put more power in that hand}
’It’s okay Ariel, I can manage this mu-’

The incoming spear entered right into Reinard’s opened hands but he was dragged by the intensity of the force at which the spear was thrown.
"Ehhhh----"
Jihi ran after him but Rein stomped his leg on the floor, the speed reduced and stomped the other on the floor finally stopping. He immediately spinned 360° and threw the spear back.
The bishop’s mouth fell, "No doubt that white spear..."
One of the knight responded, "yes sir, it’s the Pope’s Knight’s spear."
"Is she nearby?" He asked them.
"No, she’s in the Pope’s quarter"
"But that’s far, really far... but to be able to catch it too... I’m glad we didn’t mess with him" a sweat dropped from the Pope’s forehead.

She crashed into the building behind her as she try to catch back her spear, she injured her head and blood dropped down the side of her head but she smiled, "I will find you stranger that dares to insult the church"
The pope came out, "Rebecca? What happened here?" He spoke slowly yet elegant.
She hurried got up and knelt on one knee, "forgive me, your beautitude I was carried away by entertainment that I let the hall get destroyed"
"Rebecca, I know you are very strong but consider the cost of having to restore them every time you destroy it" the pope spoke gently and turned, "let it get repaired at once, next time your scutage will be affected" he said as he went side while gently and slowly walking.
She smiled brightly, "thank you your beautitude"
Rein caused a ruckus with the bishop who claims he has no idea who threw the spear he left not long after because he had something to do.
Rein arrived at the Monthild guild, overseed by Grim. He poured all the gold statues to the ground in front of Grim.
"How much gold do you think can be melted out.of this 23 statues?" Rein asked.
Grim, Maxi and Lorrim’s mouth were wide open.
"....enough to even feed the city for 20 years" Grim said.
"We are not feeding the city Grim" Rein sternly said to him.
"Sorry Master, I got carried away, what I mean is its a lot of money"
"Well melt it, and call me when you are done, and how are the inventions coming along?"
"With the imprints you left and adding my knowledge, with my skill as a mechanator. I’ve been able to successfully create one."
"Really?" A bright smile appeared on Rein’s face.
"Yes Master" Grim quickly went to his office and came back with a rectangular glass with silver coatings by the side, "here sir" he gave it to Rein.
"Wow, but isn’t this too exposed ...glass could break easily"
"No, apart from silica, the glazing element, soda which is the melting element and calcium carbonate which is the stabilizer I also added titanium as part of it property, titanium is a very light metal that has a steel like strength, making its very light and strong at the same time, I could have used adamantium but it would be too heavy so that’s why and it’s also controlled by tapping the screen, just as you instructed."
’I don’t understand a thing he’s saying but in a nutshell I think he means I very strong’ Rein tapped the screen and it came on, projected a font of "welcome" . Rein smiled, ’it’s just like an AI’
"So have you been able to make it be able to tap into magical circuits?"
"That was the simplest part, I’m coming" Grim ran inside.
𝑣𝑟𝑟𝑟𝑟𝑟𝑟
𝑣𝑟𝑟𝑟𝑟𝑟𝑟
Rein tapped the screen and put it on his ear, he could hear Grim’s voice.
<"hello Master">
Rein smiled, <"wow this is brilliant">
<"it is all thanks to your knowledge master">
Grim came out with a big smiled like he was really proud of himself.
"Also Master, I’m looking to add a particular function, as the only function it has now is communication which is why I named it Communicator"
’Communicator is not bad...since calling it mobile phone will give the players a hint and some of them might...what am I saying, I shouldn’t be surprised if there’s something called mobile phone out there’
"So what is this function?" Rein asked.
"It’s especially for adventurers, I want to create some sort of system, where they will be able to accept quest on the Communicator and also receive the payment on the Communicator, and also their strength-grading will be on the Communicator too and they will also be able to find each other wherever they are as far as they sought of have themselves as friends on the Communicator and lastly they will be able to place auctions for items, find parties too"
Rein was very surprised, "that is a brilliant idea Grim" Rein smiled and hugged Grim as he was overjoyed, "that is really intelligent of you. Please do it, do it exactly as you have said"
’With that, even the mobile phone won’t be able to stand a chance, even if they will later get the hang of this, we would still be the pioneer’ Rein laughed out, "I’m really happy with your idea Grim"
Grim also felt happy within, ’to be able to impress Master Reinard so much like this, having a non-combatant class, I actually thought I was useless but to be so useful to Master Reinard, what more could I ask for’
"Grim, Lorrim, Maxi, I must take my leave. Do not hesitate to call me whenever you need me"
"That reminds me Master Reinard" Lorrim, the elf elementalist said.
"Yes, what is it Lorrim?"
"Sir Jon did say he was going to defeat the dungeon that holds one of the nine wonders of the world"
"Nine wonders? What is that?" Rein asked.
"Eh? You don’t know?"
"No I don’t"
{...}
"Well, there are some things called the treasures of the world, the nine wonders are the highest in hierarchy and the most powerful of those treasures, but since no one has never defeated them, no one knows how powerful they are but we do know that they are very powerful because several have tried but none have been victorious"
"Hmmm....", ’so it was something Ariel had told me about’
{...!!}
"If they are the peak, then they most be very powerful, I’ve seen how useful a rare rated one could be"
"Rare?" Lorrim wondered and tried to relate to what Rein was saying.
"No, I just mean they must be very strong"
"Ah... I see, but Master Reinard, shouldn’t you go help then, if they fail, they might lose their life"
Rein smiled, "Jon has Ben and Katherine, besides Jon is very strong, Sigrid is there too, Arnette is with him too, so is Cualli, I don’t think he will not defeat not to even talk of lose his life"
"That’s true...but the nine wonders cannot be underestimated" Lorrim said.
"Don’t worry Lorrim, they’ll be fine" Rein replied him. He looked at all of them and smiled, "it was nice seeing you all faces, I should really get going now".
