[MYSTERIOUS ITEM]
(SCENE)
James opens up his system store page after receiving store points from his residue conversion.
As his about to purchase the spellbook he was eying, Anya returns to James, telling him about all that she found in the boss room, however she tells him that he would need to make his way to where she found the items, as they seemed to be an abundance of things, which would not allow for her to carry all of them to him.
James looked at how long he had before the system store would reset, and noticed that he has a just under twenty hours remanining before the spellbook he wants to buy get rerolled, so he decided to get up off the floor and follow Anya to where she found the items she spoke of.
Anya assited James off the floor and they made their way further into the boss floor, after walking forward for a couple minutes, they eventually made it to the area Anya spoke of.
James immediate noticed a that there had been a plethora of things layed around all over, however non of them caught James attention, so he began walking around using the 'Eyes of the creator' skill he has to gauge the value of the things that where around the area.
James leisurely strolled around inspecting the items that where in the room, looking at their rarity, special abilities if they had any, and various other small things. As James was looking at the things there, Anya was following him, making casual conversation. James and Anya eventually made it near the ends of the floor, as they where still looking around, they came across an egregious amount of platinum coins. James intially didn't bat an eye at the coins, as he didn't need money for anything, as he had no real use for it, until Ein told him that he could use platinum coins to make custom equipment using alchemy, along with the system informing him that coins could be converted into store points.
James asked the system for the conversion rates of coins to store points.
{System Store}
'Bronze - 10 Store Point'
'Silver - 100 Store Points'
'Gold - 1000 Store points'
'Platinum - 10000 Store points'
James eyes lit up and he promptly decided to take all the coins that where scartered around, he used his storage ring and wind magic as a means of the getting the coins into his inventory faster, however even with the increased pace, he was still met with a long wait as the process was taking long, until he realised that he could also use his gluttony skill as a means of absorbing the coins into his inventory.
James activated his gluttony skill and in an instant, the mountain of platinum coins that had layed on the floor disappeared into his inventory.
James opened up his system panel and opened his inventory to see how many coins he had taken, and to his amazement, he saw well over five hundred thousand platinum coins in his inventory, well over what his family fortunate was when he was still an acknowledged member of the Belfork family.
Anya went closer to James and was shocked at what she had seen, she asked James how he was able put the coins into his storage ring so fast, and what he would need so many for.
James simply told her not to worry about it, she tried to pry further, however James did not entertain her, so she eventually lost motive, and began walking further ahead of James.
James followed her and continued looking around, he eventually found Supreme tier weapons, and took them for Anya, as training weapons.
James didn't pay much attention to the rest of the things that were around his area, so he walked faster, until he eventually made it to the last part of the floor that had things in it.
James looked around, and thought that the supreme tier weapons and platinum coins were the only that the dungeon had to offer to him of use, however just as he thought, he found a gem hidden amoungsst rubbish.
James found a soulbound item hidden among common tier equipment, however James was unable to tell what it was, nor could he see the description of the item. When James picked the item up, a system prompt showed up asking if James would like to claim ownership of the item.
James asked Ein, if he possible had any knowledge of what the item he was holding could be, but to James surprise, Ein was also unaware of what it might be.
James looked at his system prompt again and hesitated for a second, as to weather he should claim ownership of the item and bind it to his soul, or just leave it be in the dungeon, but James choose to claim it as his, in case it was something that could be of use to him, however when he claimed it, nothing happened for a second, until the item began to uncontrollable shake, before entering his body, thereafter making him enter a state which lead to him experiencing a pain he thought he would not face anytime soon.
James knees buckled, Anya heard it, and ran towards James, however as she went to him, her knees also buckled, and she screamed at the top of her lungs, as she began experiencing a pain she had never felt before.
James asked Ein why Anya's also in pain, and was simply told that it was likely because of the fact that the item he just claim was a soulbound item, which would also transfer to Anya, due to the fact that they're soulbound themselves.
