Gather Divine Coins and Gacha! - Chapter 265

 【Danlem's Thread】

The longbow is just over 2 meters in length and weighs about 50 kilograms.

When activated, the string appears, and when drawn, an arrow of light is nocked.

Each shot requires a charge time of 10 minutes, but its power is exceptionally high. The arrow of light shoots straight ahead, like a thread being pulled taut.

The downside is its weight and the strength needed to draw it.

Even Alex found it quite tough without using 【Prayer】.

It's incredibly powerful, but since he also commands on the front lines, it wasn't quite suitable for him.

I asked if he wanted to use it, but he firmly declined.

I also asked Zighart, but he jokingly refused, saying it would look bad if he couldn't draw the bow.

Well, he’s probably stronger using his own magic anyway, but this is definitely a weapon that chooses its user.

That being said, the trial at the training grounds ended in success.

The soldiers watching were impressed, and it even served as good motivation for the apprentice adventurers.

The branch leader was pleased, saying that the number of people staying on might exceed the initial expectation of ten.

"One, two! Three, four!"

Well, to be honest, that doesn't matter much to me.

This 【Danlem's Thread】 is the long-awaited long-range weapon.

Frankly, if used as a normal bow, it's far beyond my ability to handle… but I have a plan.

It might not be the most polite way to use it, but by combining it with other items, even I might be able to shoot a beam.

"Two, three! Four!"

Flexibility is key for that!

While everyone was busy working in Liesel’s office, I was stretching on the sofa, not to be outdone, when a servant came in.

Apparently, a package had arrived for Seriana.

"I understand. Please bring it here."

"Yes, ma'am."

After bowing, the servant left the room.

"It's rare for you to have something brought here. Is it important?"

"It's nothing major. I placed the order a while ago, but since it came from the royal capital, it took a little longer to arrive."

Seriana shrugged at Liesel's question.

From the royal capital, huh… It sometimes arrives through Minea, so is it that?

"Let’s take a break."

With that, Seriana stood up from her seat.

◇

After a short wait, two wooden boxes were placed on the table in front of me.

One was about the size of a computer keyboard, no more than 5 centimeters thick, and rectangular.

The other was a cube, about 10 centimeters in size.

The boxes themselves were engraved with designs, and the lids were fitted with hinges, made to open.

They weren’t just containers—they could easily be decorations in a room.

From across the room, Liesel and the others were watching with interest.

"Sera, open that one."

Seriana, who had moved from her seat to the sitting area, pointed to the rectangular box.

"Alright."

With my heart racing, hoping it wasn’t a jack-in-the-box, I opened it to find colorful rings—one, two… ten.

Is this a jewelry box…?

"What is this?"

"It’s a bit late, but it’s for you."

For me...?

"…My birthday!?"

I had just turned 11 a few days ago. So this is for that!

Two years ago, I received a cape, and last year, I got various clothes… I guess I’ve received something every year!

But rings…?

"Thank you! But why so many?"

Over the past two years, I’ve received nothing but practical gifts. I doubt these rings are just for decoration either.

"Princess, your hand."

Before Seriana could answer, Teresa, who was sitting next to me, took my hand and slipped a ring onto my finger.

"Oh, uh… Huh!?"

My hands are small, and my fingers are thin.

The 【Shadow Sword】 and 【Amber Sword】 automatically adjust to the size of my finger.

That’s why I can wear them, but ordinary rings are difficult.

Seriana knows that, so why…?

"What’s with this ring…?"

The ring that was just put on… its size changed.

At first, it was too loose, but now it fits perfectly.

"It’s a magical tool made from the bones and tendons of monsters. It adjusts its size to fit the wearer’s finger. Isn’t that amazing?"

Seriana said proudly.

"Well, I mean, yes, that’s incredibly amazing."

In response, I just made a confused face.

It's truly one-size-fits-all.

And not some random gacha prize—it was handcrafted by humans, which makes it even more incredible.

…Although, I still have no idea what I’m supposed to do with this…
