Reincarnation Of Audemars - Chapter 103

The next morning, the children were up and running about using the staircase and the landings to practise their PK and I thought to myself that these children should have a better place to practise their newly acquired traits and hobby.

After breakfast, I discussed matters with Patricia. “I would like to bring the children to the Northern Forest where they could practise their PK, shoot some wild boars while they are at it and also I need to ask NoOne for his appraisal on the new weapons. Furthermore, you could bring out the staff and kill some wild boars too. Wouldn’t it be great?”

“Sure… Let them perform their daily tasks first and then we could head out to the Northern Forest. It’s been so long since I practise my Frost and Lightning attacks. By the way, is the staff ready yet?” Patricia asked and I slapped my forehead since I had forgotten all about it.

“Haiya… I forgot to ask the wisps to help me imbue the staff for you. They had been busy doing all the other works that I had forgotten all about it. However, the staff that I would be imbuing for you is a special one. It may or may not help you to gain faster in your levels. Here, take this 100 points first and distribute to your attributes first.” I said as I passed 100 allocation points to Patricia to allocate in her attributes first beforehand.

“Here, take these earrings, bracelet, anklets and this cute headband for yourself. It’s +25 for all attributes and as a Wizard, I think you have another attribute called Intelligence. Dump 40 points in there and it will also improve your Mana as well as your Attack and Damage Rating for Wizardry. Just like mine.” I suggested and she did so and the balance was divided equally and since she wore the accessories, she had gained +100 on her INT.

“Wow… I can feel the power surge within my body when it hits 145. The rest was at base 5 +15 allocated plus another +100 from these 4 accessories making them +120 altogether. How about the children?” Patricia asked and I dangled the 4 sets in front of her. I don’t think Adam would be suited to wear a headband in front of his forehead and also a set of earrings. But since the earrings are a clip-on type I think it should be fine since there was no piercing involved.

“Children, come and get your accessories… Daddy made them for Mummy and now I could feel its power and strength.” and when the children came to get theirs, they were delighted to find that their +42 attributes had become +142 overall.

Since the children are actually not a full-fledged wizard since they were using shouts and some passive and active spells, the did not INT shown in their attributes and instead have 4 that would be fully emphasised. A sudden rise in the DEX made them even more agile and able to perform the rest of the traits well. The only thing is that their level of progress remained the same.

“How does one improve their progress? System, are you there… I’m using my thoughts to communicate with you.”

*Ding* Anything concerning LUCK would improve their progress level. It could be a 4 leaf clover, rabbits foot, horseshoe, acorn, a painting of a goldfish, dream catcher, a painting of an elephant, a physical key, a picture of a physical ladybug, a picture or a physical mushroom, picture of a number 7, scarab, an old shoe, a penny, a piece of quartz, a picture of a tortoise or a physical one, a picture of a unicorn, a physical wishbone, a picture of a yew tree and a zumi bean.

“That’s a mouthful… A picture of any of those would improve luck, am I right? Not necessarily to be a physical one especially a tortoise and other large items like an elephant.”

*Ding* Right you are, Host. Just look at the coat of arms. Presently, you could design one of your own and have at least 5 to 6 of them to call it as Macleod’s.

“Thanks, system, I made a note of it. Let me know when everything is ready since I need to make the staff for Patricia.” I said as I tried to delay the time to hand her the precious staff that I would try to imbue with the latest Level 15 Iron ingot that was made before the coma.

“We will head to the Atelier when we are in the way, would that be alright, dear? I need to see some designs and the House of Keating would soon have a new coat of arms for the Macleod’s collection.” I suggested and she agreed as the children went about their duties to check the production plants were working smoothly.

Once the children had done, they went to the Strongbow Tavern and then to the Keating’s Day Care Centre to help guide the rest of the toddlers and small children there.

I managed to slip into the Realm of Mind and I went to a free Fusion Chamber that had completed its task and inserted Patricia’s Shepherd’s Crook inside it and then I placed 2 pieces of Level 15 iron ingot in the Fusing slot. I pushed the slider to CREATE/WEAPON and then I choose the one that would make it more suitable for our new mage. It was the Mark of Magi… The one that I had created for Stef and the rest of the Mages back in series 7.

I kissed the fusion chamber’s door, closed it and crank the lever. I waited for about 15 minutes before I heard a notification and it was like sweet juicy steak waiting for me to chomp…

*Ding* Santa’s coming early this winter… Congratulations. Creation Success. Level 15 Iron Mark of Magi Staff. Damage +2250 Mana +2250. 10 base points x15x15. Sockets 0/5

I logged off and returned to the real world and I think Patricia would be super delighted with the design and also the damage rating and the addition of her mana.

When Patricia came back to the table, she saw me smiling like a silly kid and can’t help by asking, “Well… You sure look kind of happy today. Do you have anything surprisingly good?” I kept smiling at her and I simply said, “You won’t believe what good tidings you would going to have very soon.” and subconsciously she held her hand over her belly.

“Not that, my dear… Time will tell… Are the children done with their tasks?” and as soon as I mentioned it, the children entered the door and barged right in. “We’d get change soon, Daddy… These new accessories were the envy of those adventurers and were asking where we got them,” exclaimed Ingles as she bounded upstairs to get changed.

“I just replied to them that our Daddy is the one that gave these to us,” replied Jane as she too bounded after her elder sister. “I told them House of Keating would be recruiting soon and we four are going to be their mentors,” added Kayla as she too bounded upstairs after saying so.

“Yes… And I told them that the membership is free of charge and any weapons or accessories from Uncle Blake or Uncle Bruce would be 50% for the first 50 members of the 4 classes.” finally Adam spoke up before he bounded up the stairs and get changed into their camouflaged Ranger-Assassin-Wizard gear.

These children knew how to make the best of any situation and right now word of mouth had spread around stating that House of Keating has finally decided to open its doors.

But could House of Keating be able to compete with the current Houses in the 3 Districts? A slow starter but House of Keating had gained #1 position in accumulated wealth but its membership is still at NIL. The children are not considered as part of its members since they are originally from the House itself.

Well, only time will tell, right?

….

We reached the Atelier first and checked if they could design an embroidery badge like the Keating’s coat of arms before when we had sewn onto all the Keating’s Armoured Fashion Apparel.

They have a collection of designs and first I chose a yellow and red vertical stripes, a pointy bottom crest, a silhouette of an elephant’s head in the centre, two 4 leaves clover on both top left and right of the crest.

A double-crossed key in the top centre above the elephant, a goldfish at the bottom centre underneath the elephant, a horseshoe on the bottom left and an inverted no.7 on the bottom right.

Then I added 3 crossed bows and 2 crossed assassin’s daggers both on the left and right of the silhouette of the elephant’s head. When I’m done I take a look at it and wanted to try out these first so I asked the assistant o produce one and it took mere minutes as he computes the design and it came out from the mould.

It came out perfect and I passed it to Patricia and explained that each of these is considered as Luck. I had her hold on it first as it has 7 pieces of good luck pictures on it and I wanted her to try it out first.

“Why is Mummy holding on to the coat of arms you had just designed? Does a Wizard needs a lot of Luck?” Adam asked as she saw that the designs had been hurriedly picked and it wasn’t going to look like a Macleod’s coat of arms even.

“We will soon find out, my dear children. Atelier, here are the set of clothes that you wished for and it’s ready. There are 500 sets for camouflage designs and 250×4 for Assassins and 250×4 for the Rangers. We hope you are satisfied with the products.” I introduced to the Atelier with the ready wardrobe and it was randomly tested with a knife and it didn’t pierce through.

“Here’s the 40% share, Mister Audemars. I have decided to pay it forward since we are making a boom with the other unarmoured merchandise as well.” the Atelier handed Patricia 2.4 million credits and our accumulated wealth swelled to 30.4 million credits.

We thanked the Atelier and made our way to Bruce’s where I handed him the amulets and rings first. I handed him the 4k pieces of assorted amulets and rings and he paid up as well and handed Patricia 128k. He saw what Patricia was wearing and was marvelled at its attributes and I presented him 1k each for the earrings, bracelets, anklets and headband.

The moment he held those in his hands he was surprised at its +15 attributes. He asked for each price, “Does it sells at 80 credits too, my brethren?” I looked at it and advised him to change the price for the amulets and rings.

“The amulets and rings would be priced at 120 credits each since it is only meant for a single attribute. These new items cost 750 credits each since it enhances 5 attributes at one time.”

“I was advised to settle for this price even if the House of Light is selling at a much higher price than you. Don’t worry, if they ask anything from you, just say that an Archmage came and helped you.”

“If they ask for the Archmage’s name, say that his name is Merlin and he came from the House of Keating. Healthy competition is all we need now, am I right? Furthermore, theirs is bronze but yours is Level 4 iron.”

He wanted to pay up the 40% share but I told him to sell off these pieces first since its cheaper than the rest sold in House of Light.

When he heard the prices that were sold in the House of Light, he asked if he could match the price. “Don’t sell them too exorbitantly. Maybe you could sell them at 2k credits across the board but just pay me according to the base price of 750 credits.

Bruce reluctantly agrees but he said he would deal with them accordingly and would pay up at the end of 30 days.

As we walked out to Northern Forest, Ingles can’t help noticing that I had missed Blake’s store altogether. “Daddy, aren’t you going to Uncle Blake’s store? His weapons are ready, am I right?” I smiled as we passed NoOne’s camp. “Yes dear, they are ready. I’m here to ask for the appraisal pricing from Mister NoOne.”
