I Reincarnated as a Shinai

Chapter 183: Presentation II

Kael and Sven were both satisfied with the Magic Items that they're seeing.

Although none of them are groundbreaking, they were happy to see that the trainees understood the concept of this evaluation clearly, as expected of the top 4th-Class Arcanists... 

Perhaps because they were still young, their creativity and ideas about Magic Items were truly simple but can be considered useful in a very practical way.

It matches the theme of this evaluation very well...

'Mhmm... Now let's see the creations of the top students...' 

Apparently, they have decided to leave the five promising students at the end of the evaluation due to various reasons...

As soon as they called the top trainee, Kael and Sven observed the item she's holding... They can't feel the Memory Crystal inside

Lexi then gave a brief introduction about it and although she only has 30 seconds to do this, it was still plenty of time for her and she even decided to demonstrate how it is being used...

The weirdly shaped box has a lens in its front and a small lever at the side.

It is currently facing the 2 old Arcanists and as soon as she pulled the lever, the lense glowed for a moment before they heard noises inside the Sight Recorder...

They were curious about what's happening within that box.

It only took about 10 seconds before a paper came out. In this paper was the captured image of the two old Arcanists sitting on their chair! 

"Whoa..."

"Look at the quality of the image. Isn't that amazing?"

"That's true. It's impressive. How did she do it?"

"I think this is only for those with plenty of money. After all, she's spending a single memory crystal for that small image drawn in the paper."

"I don't think so... The memory crystal was still present. Look."

One of the Arcanist replied after seeing that Lexi just showed the crystal in front of everyone before returning it to the box.

"I like to buy it!"

"Me too... But I think that the painters would lose their job if this is really that effective... I won't buy this to support my uncle... I still like the portraits he's making, he's really a good painter."

"What? Just do what you want... Anyway, I now see why it was called a Sight Recorder!"

"Ahh, you're right... It fits the name..."

"I want to try it now..."

Everyone has their own thoughts after seeing the effectiveness of Lexi's creation. It may indeed replace some painters once it was released to the public. The only concern is that the size of the paper is quite small... 

Nevertheless, it is still an item that anyone would wish to have...

Lexi eyed the two old Arcanists, she wanted to at least see whether they've shown interest in her creation.

"This is such an innovative idea... I would like to appraise this item thoroughly..."

Kael softly said after seeing the result of the Sight Recorder. 

These words already made her happy. 

Although this is an idea made by her friend, it was still her who made the concept into reality

Sven didn't say a word but he was reminded of something after seeing this

The captured image's quality was indeed several times greater than normal painters. It was almost like a mirror...

'That's right! It feels similar to the Floating Mirror...'

Sven smirked after remembering the Arcana.

The mirror is an Epic-Rank Arcana that has appeared long ago in which it could reveal the last scene viewed by someone's eye... 

But that Arcana must only be used to dead people as it needs to consume the eye of the target in order to see their last moments

The mirror would portray what the eye saw before their death! 

It was such a perfect Arcana to investigate a crime until someone decided to shatter it. Until now, no Arcana with a similar ability like the Floating Mirror has ever appeared.

Lexi proudly walked away after the red-robed Arcanist took her item

"Myla You're next."

She's the Lance Wielder and Lexi's friend. 

Although she's not known for her crafting abilities, the materials that she took with her were all complicated or difficult to use which made the judges think that she made something spectacular 

Myla bowed at the two respectable Arcanists before she started introducing her creation.

"This is Scry Box Inspired by Searching Bell and Divination Ball If you placed an item inside the box, it will help you track the location of similar objects Their aura, appearance, color, and energy will be used to track the partner or owner of the object that is placed. This is a Magic Item I've been working on for the last 2 years"

Myla finished her introduction as she proudly smiled and thanked the judges

If her box truly works just like what she said, then this is definitely going to be popular After all, the Searching Bell and the Divination Ball have limitations when tracking objects or people They are also pricey.

Though there might be a test needed to ensure the quality of her Magic Item.

"Rufus, bring your item in front."

Finally, it was now his turn

***

Reiji saw that Rufus walked in front. He's looking forward to the item made by this young man

"Your wielder took two Memory Crystal, right?"

"Ahh. Yes, I think so Why?"

"Nothing, I just want to know whether you have told him to make that item"

"Of course, not. I do not have any skills related to crafting How about you?" 

Reiji replied. Although he doesn't want to inform them about his shortcomings, he wanted to give Rufus the credit he deserves.

"Well, Lexi is my friend So I gave her some advice about it" Yui said proudly.

"Whoa So you gave her ideas about that magic item?" 

As expected of a Mythical Rank wielder, it seems that she's truly talented in many ways.

"That's right I wanted to call it a Camera but Sight Recorder shouldn't be that bad."

"Camera?"

"Yeah Odette gave me that name. She always comes up with weird names"

""

Reiji kept it in his mind. He even had a thought that it was truly Odette's idea.

Anyway, it's not time to make a guess, he wanted to listen to Rufus's introduction with his Magic Item.

"I don't have a name for this item yet For now, I'll just call it my Messenger. Anyway, instead of verbally introducing it, let me show you how this works"

Rufus seemed to be very calm as he started speaking casually to the two old Arcanists. 

He placed both the metallic item in front of the judges side by side The young man then brought out a piece of paper and a quill pen

He would take a glance at the judges from time to time as he was preparing his Magic Item

He held the pen as he paused for a moment to think of what to write on the paper. 

Finally, he decided to write "Hello, Arcanist Tower."

He then took the piece of paper and opened the first Messenger

The Messenger has the Laguna Mirror acting as its lid so he needs to be extra careful in handling this.

As soon as it was opened, the eyes of Vokaril and the Memory Crystal were seen by the crowd 

He didn't say a word as he then placed the paper on a flat surface of the item before closing the mirror lid.

Then, he grabbed another blank piece of paper and place it inside the second Messenger

Rufus then touched the first Messenger and poured a tiny amount of Spiritual Energy to trigger its activation.

Nothing happened. No reaction from the Metallic Magic Item whatsoever

However, Rufus only smiled as he looked at the two old men

Then, to everyone's surprise, as soon as Rufus opened the Second Messenger, the previously blank paper has written words! 

"Hello, Arcanist Tower."

What magic is this? How did it happen?!

The man then opened the First Messenger and showed that the words on the paper were still there, nothing has changed

Everyone went silent as they were trying to understand how Rufus did it This is not a trick of the eyes but a genuine magic item, however, even after studying Arcane Magic for a long time, none of them could understand how it works

They haven't seen any Arcane Magic that has ever worked like this.

Finally, Sven said something as he reached a conclusion.

"It's the Eyes of Vokaril, Laguna Mirror, and the Memory Crystal Impressive. Those three objects made this happen."

"That's true. The mystical eyes to ensure that no distance would stop it The mirror to control the balance of energy, and the crystal to record I bet that this item would work even if you placed the other Messenger in another kingdom Haaaa~ This is getting difficult There so many talented Arcanists in the tower"

"That's true Even if there's a problem with his current creation, the top Crafters of the kingdom can just perfect it or even improve it This young man has done it"

Sven said these words as if he was talking to himself but everyone heard it clearly.
