Inspecting the items within the parcel, Jason figured out that almost everything within was what he perceived.

There were many potions placed radiating a black and light-gray color inside a black leather belt.

From his knowledge, Jason estimated that they were not only completely cleansed from purities but also the strongest potions, he could drink, without the possibility to injure himself accidentally.

If he were to drink a high-grade potion, he might as well kill himself, because the potency of such potions would most likely burn his cells, causing his mana veins to explode or even overdraft his lifeforce.

As such, perfectly purified grade-1 potions and the weakest purified grade-2 potions could be found inside the parcel, stacked upon each other with a few of them inside the black leather belt.

With these potions, he might as well come back to life after barely evading death which was definitely a good sign.

If his eyes were not seeing illusions, the amount of mana within these potions was much higher than higher grader potions by at least one to two small ranks.

This caused him to look at the potions with lifted eyebrows, as he wondered how expensive they would be if he were to sell them.

But his life was much more important than several hundred thousand credits and Jason would rather save the potions within the parcel for himself or even others if necessary, than selling them.

Storing the potions away, a black-colored leather armor was revealed.

Dense mana enveloped the black leather armor with golden outlines. but weirdly enough there was no color radiating from it.

The only unique aspect about the leather armor were the golden inscribed runes on the golden outlines, connecting everything with each other, while the mana within shimmered brightly.

Taking out the leather armor, Jason noticed that it weighed at least 50 kilograms which was uncommon for leather armors, as it was normally half of it for battle-oriented armors.

Feeling the texture, hardness, and toughness, he was shocked as he figured out that this leather armor was a few times more endurable than his grade-2 leather armor.

Clearing her throat Dalia said 

"Unfortunately both of us can't manufacture leather armors.  Due to the lack of time, we could only acquire a mana rank-2 leather armor. With enough mana supplied, it should be enough to protect yourself from all kinds of unblemished beast attacks and even some magical ranked beasts, as long as they don´t use corrosive or ice elemental attacks.

The only downside is, that we cannot protect your whole body, but at least you're somewhat protected with this armor.

The required mana is not that high and thanks to the great connection of runes you can probably see with your mana eyes, you might be able to supply it for a few minutes.

Nevertheless, for a 3rd Adept rank with a mana core size of a 7th Adept, it might still be a little bit too much, considering the possibility that you're forced to supply your leather armor for a longer interval."

He never thought that he might receive something from his masters because he disregarded their good-meant opinion too often, but receiving so many life-saving items was extremely helpful, as he took out the last item.

It was a small, blue shining sphere with a black golden rope around it, turning it into a bracelet.

The sphere radiated a thick dark green color that astonished him greatly, in the beginning.

Over the last few minutes, as he inspected the former items, he was able to adjust his curiosity and excitement, as he glanced at the item in his trembling hands.

Artemis was gazing at the mana-sphere like he did and both could perceive the vast amount of mana within, as their gaze averted back to Shane at the same time

Noting that it was his time, Shane stepped forward as he explained

"This is a slightly more unique mana-sphere, I forged yesterday. It's a mana grade-3 item and as you might have already figured out, inside it is a vast amount of compressed mana.

Right now it might be useless but you can supply the mana within this sphere into all kinds of objects while using it yourself might be a stupid idea because my and Dalia´s mana is stored within.

Annexing someone else´s mana is not something you should try if you don't want to die at the age of 14. As for Artemis… either tell her to stop looking at the mana sphere like this or store it away. I don't think she will be able to hold herself otherwise."

Pondering for a moment, Shane opened his holographic screen, as he transfered Jason a particular file.

Not caring if his disciple opened it, he said seriously

"Over the next few days, we´ll have a lot to do within the smithy! In order to use the unique mana-sphere correctly, you need to have the right weapons which can handle a large amount of mana, right? "

Jason was confused and not sure what to do because he had to digest too much information at once.

Concluding the information in his mind, he asked hesitantly

"We´ll craft a mana weapon for me, right?" 

Seeing Shane´s proud expression when he nodded his head vigorously, Jason's eyes brightened up.

To Jason, Shane seemed like a teenager at this moment, as he behaved like an adult and a child at the same time.

Dalia was smiling lightly, as she was already accustomed to Shane´s weird behavior when both she and Jason followed him towards the smithy. 

While Shane already entered the smithy, Jason, Dalia, and Artemis were behind him, as Dalia said

"The file you received is important for later. I don´t think you´ll need it for the expedition because your mana fluctuations are faint and weaker compared to the rest of the expedition team.

However, please read through it and learn it to a certain degree, okay? We want you to survive, alright?"

Dalia said and in the beginning, she and Shane only wanted Jason to overcome his own limits by accumulating 500 star notes, by himself in order to be like a small stepping stone for his future progress.

How could they have ever imagined that they caused their dear disciple to risk his life in order to procure the remaining star notes to complete his soulbond´s evolution?

It had been a long time since they felt so dumb, which in the end caused them to equip Jason with all kinds of high-quality potions, a unique mana-sphere with all of their mana both of them absorbed over the whole day and the file they send him.

Additionally, Shane wanted to help Jason to forge his own real mana weapon in order to use the mana-sphere completely.

In the end, Shane would most likely forge the mana grade-1 weapon, with Jason supporting him, but this was more than enough to survive, as he wouldn't even be able to handle a mana grade-2 weapon at the moment, even if his mana supply was more than enough.

Previously they heard Jason stating that he wanted to purchase a mana gun which they hadn't thought of and they immediately supported his decision. 

WIth the unique mana-sphere, he might even be able to handle one of the more powerful grade-2 mana guns, even though the recoil could be quite painful.

After hearing that Shane would help him to forge a real mana weapon, Jason immediately forgot the file he received.

Looking at his holographic screen, he only saw three bright words, which shocked him
