The moment Leon turned away from Rinna and walked deeper into the colorful smoke, he noticed two items hovering and circling around him.
One was a staff with a blue crystal sphere, and the other was a cloak that moved on its own as if it had a life of its own.
They revolved around Leon at a steady pace, like they were trying to speak to him.
The mana they emitted pulsed in sync with his own mana core. Both of them.
'A resonance phenomenon?' Leon guessed.
The two items wanted him. They had chosen him.
In Eclipse's Armory, it was never humans who chose the weapons. It was the weapons that decided their wielder.
You didn't pick them up like tools; you had to form a resonance and prove yourself compatible.
It was less of a transaction and more like a marriage proposal, except the weapon had full rights to reject you first.
Leon stopped, thinking for a moment, then activated his [Analyze] skill.
His gaze landed on the staff first.
A blue transparent window shimmered into view.
