With the new day came new lessons, as Jake and Thera’s split minds were put to work. Both of them were materializing and both of them were enchanting, with learning both the enchanting modifier he’d found within the archive as well as a few of the mana modifiers discovered within the two great spells he’d been studying being the priority for that day, but on top of it from there, he was now also getting them to learn to bestow, with one in particular feeling free with their complaints.

“Ben, buddy, I know I asked for something different but I meant instead of enchanting, not on top of it!”

“You’ll thank me when you get your level.”

“I really won’t!”

“Okay, you’ll thank me when I take you with me when I challenge craftsmans’ tower later.”

“Wait, what? So you’re doing it in the end?”

“Yeah, and luckily for you, you make it to the list of people it might make sense to bring along so since I’m going to be doing my best to get you another free level after this one, focus a bit before I make something that will make you.”

That small bit of motivation actually managed to get him what he wanted, with Jake showing a renewed level of effort that Ben hoped would last at least the day.

He meant it though, it made sense to bring him. At some point, he was going to have to talk with Nare to figure out just what would count as a crafting skill to figure out who would be best to take but given complete non-affinitied magic could enchant, bestow, and shape materials, he felt certain it would fit the bill.

Of course, when it came to who else would benefit from it, he still wasn’t sure but that was a problem for the future. He still had a completely different tower to manage first and things to make before then, with the focus being on just what Amy would be getting by the end of that day.

Among all of his bodies at work, three were busy creating weapons of all sorts while Amy stood nearby, giving them a few test swings or shots depending on what was made to be sure they felt okay, giving confirmation each time.

“Okay, at this point it’s a little freaky how perfect you can make all of these feel,” She said as she held a sling in her hands. “How are you doing this?”

“It’s called being a master craftsman, I’m just that good and since these all seem to be working it’s time to start handing off some of these to my real body.”

Another Ben came over to where the three were making, dragging certain items to the original where he’d be able to use his magic, adding the enchantments each one needed and whispering to the items before putting them away into a ring, leaving the workspace a constant flow of making and movement with all there was going on within it as the project slowly progressed further.

The goal was to ensure that each item that went into the ring would be ranked as at least lower legendary, a challenge that still managed to be hard enough that a few things needed to be remade after the applied enchantments failed to push them to that level but all in all it was easier than it had any right to be to pull off by that point in his skill. His trifecta of unending crafting, divine enchanting, and deep connection worked in perfect harmony to create masterpieces, with his mind skills only helping him succeed as the hours wore on until before he knew it, everything he’d wanted to store within it was done, leaving only the ring itself to finish.

A goal that, in one way, made for one of the more interesting parts of that project. All of the spatial rings he’d made already had a bit of a mental element to them, letting the user know what they stored but he was trying to build upon that with other skills he held within his status, incorporating aspects of both his crafting and enchanting as well before it was finished, leaving only to test it in the end.

Feeling a smile touch his lips from the levels, it only grew as he felt the additional effect the ring was supposed to hold work, with the back of his mind filling with not only the physical items the ring contained but with bits of detail for all of them that was being provided by the system thanks to the analysis-like aspects of his crafting skills.
