Heading Back

[Ace POV],

Seeing this, I stopped circulating mana in my body as the area suddenly became quieter as the blue magma that was popping out of the ground reduced and continued to enter the earth until they vanished completely, but this was not where my attention was focused as it was on something else, the bone dagger.

Although I had no idea why I couldn\'t see the inscriptions I had carved on the bone dagger prior to the change, I remembered that there were inscriptions engraved on the bone dagger and what they were.

\'Ah\', \'Soh\', \'Bb\'.

The three inscriptions each meant something different.

The \'Ah\' meant \'Take In\'.

The \'Soh\' meant \'Absorb\'.

The \'Bb\' meant \'Return\'.

When placed together, this was the result; Take in, absorb, return.

Take in, absorb and return.

And, while I couldn\'t see the inscriptions I\'d engraved on the bone dagger, I could see the effects of two of the inscriptions I\'d engraved in the little experiment I\'d just had: the \'Ah\' inscription and the \'Soh\' inscription, both of which meant take in and absorb together.

The first inscription, the \'Ah,\' should be the default because it seemed logical that the bone dagger would have to take in the mana it was going to absorb before it could absorb anything at all.

And the second inscription is the \'Soh\' inscription, which means absorb, and it was this rune that was used the most during the majority of the brief test I just had.

The inscriptions I had previously inscribed were still there, it was just that I wasn\'t seeing them, and the reaction I just got from the runic bone dagger proved this.

The reaction I was referring to did not imply that the runic bone dagger communicated with me or anything of the sort.

It was even a question if weapons speaking was a possible thing even in this new world.

Well, a lot has happened up to this point, so I don\'t believe I\'d be too bothered if this thinking came true.

Leaving that aside, the reaction I was referring to was when the bone dagger suddenly stopped absorbing any mana during the absorption process, and when I urged it to absorb by bringing it close to the magma, it began shaking instead.

And the more I tried to get it to absorb more mana, the more intense the shaking became.

This made me think that the bone dagger had possibly hit its limit in terms of mana absorption.

This also caused me to stop what I was doing because continuing to do anything at this point was meaningless because the issue that caused me to stop in the first place was connected to the item for which this entire test was designed for in the first place.

But it was also because of this that I discovered the third inscription I carved was still in use, and all three inscriptions were still with the bone daggers.

I didn\'t care if the inscriptions I had previously engraved had vanished but if the bone dagger was still functioning properly because the only reason I was interested in this issue was out of curiosity.

Leaving all of that aside, I was perplexed as to how I was going to release or rather return all of the content that the runic bone dagger had ingested.

Apart from the third inscription, I assume that this is what was supposed to happen next because there must certainly be a reason why the bone dagger absorbs mana and that quantity of mana because it can\'t just absorb mana for no reason, can it?

Aside from that, there was the matter of how and if the mana was stored, but I still believed the next step was to return the content.

I\'ve previously gone through the \'Ah\', which meant to take in, and the \'Soh,\' which meant to absorb, and now I assume the next is the \'Bb,\' which means return, but the question was how can I return it.

Unlike other items I acquire from the store that have knowledge about them instantaneously inserted into my head the moment I lay touch on them, this one is different in that I had no specific information about it whatsoever, even though I was the one who created it.

This was possibly due to the fact that I was the one who created it, which was understandable given that the creator of an item should be able to know information about the said item.

I also knew a reasonable amount about the Runic Bone Dagger, but it was just this small thing that made me think, and after a few seconds of thinking, I decided to do something simple first, which was to infuse my mana into the bone dagger and see if this was a condition that also had to be met for the bone dagger to return the content it had taken.

I was able to think of this because it was simple and inexpensive.

This merely goes to illustrate that I shouldn\'t always rely on the broad information in fundamental alchemical knowledge and instead seek knowledge for myself.

It may be for various reasons or because I needed additional information regarding a specific project of mine at the moment, but it all depended on my time and money.

As I considered these things, I circulated the mana in my body once more, but this time, I focused my mana to the hand that held the bone dagger, and before my mana could entirely coat the dagger, the bone dagger released another dazzling light.

This was unexpected since the bone dagger did not reject my mana but rejected it after since the bone dagger absorbed it the first time it came into touch with my mana that was being emitted from my hand as the \'ASB#\' rune on the pommel end of the dagger shone.

I knew this since the dagger was quite close to my face when this happened because I wanted to closely study it if a change occurred that nearly marred my face.

I said disfigured because the rune lines on the bone dagger emitted blue magma immediately after my mana came \'directly\' into contact with them.

That\'s right.

This was most likely the return I was looking for.

The procedure was to take in the mana, absorb it, and then return the mana absorbed.

Fortunately, I avoided the magma that was about to spill on my body.

\'So, this is a runic weapon?\'

\'It just keeps getting more fascinating,\' I thought as I chose to return to my room, a few thoughts racing through my mind.
