Anton, his family, and friends watched Spiderman Part Two that evening, and after about an hour of conversation about the film, they all rested for the night.

  The next day, every one of the mages doubled down in their magic practice after breakfast, as if the day before when they skipped practicing their magic due to the wizard gathering was a huge miss for them even though they did manage to purchase the spells they wanted to have once they ranked up.

  Anton didn’t know if the mages in the family were affected by his behavior of wanting to get powerful as soon as possible but even if they were and it resulted in them ranking up in their wizardly rank then it was all positive.

  He knew that he was not the only one affected by the nagging feeling that there was a need for the mages to become as powerful as they could be since based on what Frederick and the others had said, all the mages on the Amelia were also doubling down on doing everything they could to powerup.

  Anton knew that even though the Gale Continent was far away from Rendindura, there was no doubt that sooner or ter, the Undead Coalition would turn their gaze to other parts of the world once they conquered the whole Rendinduran continent.

  No sane person wanted to be under the yoke of the undead and since Anton couldn’t imagine that kind of life as well others were probably the same as him.

  Life went on with Anders and the others as normal. They ran the cinema well even though in reality, their family wasn’t earning much coins from the business but every business on the ship was the same. Once they stopped at the next stop, then the ship’s economy would be boosted but from what Anton knew, their family would not add any additional business, just the Cospy Event.

  Anton didn’t worry about their finances since they did have enough and more to tide them over until they reached the Gale Continent. He then focused on completing the magic defensive item and when lunchtime arrived, the mana structure, mana pathway, and the size of the mana storage was complete. The only thing he needed to do was select an actual item where he could inscribe the enchantment.

  So far the only item that he could think of was a belt with a wide enough buckle where Anton could inscribe the mana structures and pathway but the buckle would need to be very wide and when he imagined what it would look like, in his mind, it would resemble those belts that wrestling champions would receive when they won the championship and that made him smile.

  He immediately went to work after eating a bit of food for lunch. Anton melted a lot of silver coins he had left and used the sand that he retrieved from the desert outside the city of Lut Gholein to create an oval mold into which he would pour the melted silver. Once the silver wide buckle was created, he would inscribe the mana structure of the Frozen Armor, Cyclone Armor, and Bone Armor spells as well as the mana structure for the mana storage and inscribe the mana pathway that would connect the spells to the mana storage and to the inevitable switch to turn the enchantment on or off.

  At first, Anton thought of adding the mana structure of the Warmth Spell so that the item would retrieve mana from the environment that would fill the mana storage if it was not in use but he would probably do so at a ter time because that would truly make the enchanted defensive item extremely complex and they did have a lot of mana power bank due to the magic practice that the mages were doing every day.

  When the buckle was created which took no time at all, Anton made an effort to polish the wide buckle so it would shine and look aesthetically pleasing. After that, he began inscribing the spells at the back of the wide buckle. Once he was done, he mangled one of his belts and attached the belt strap to the loop that he added to the buckle.

  Anton tried to wear the belt first to check if what he made could be worn and once it was on his waist, he tried several movements to check if it would encumber him somehow but it didn’t.

  Please with what he made, he inspected the belt using his inventory, and his system named it Anton’s Magic Belt. The simplicity of the name displeased him but Anton just shrugged and studied the details of the belt. It stated that the belt when activated would provide the wearer the defensive power of a level one Frozen Armor, Level one Cyclone Armor, and level one Bone Armor, but he was surprised to note that the belt would also give the wearer one hundred to the mana stats and for some reason ten to defense.

  Anton felt that the level of the spells was too weak but unfortunately, he couldn’t create a mana structure that was greater than his spell level, and right now, all of his defensive spells were at level one excluding the Energy Sheild. He stopped for several minutes and contempted and after a while, Anton decided to erase the mana structure that he inscribed on the belt.

  He used his once-a-week reset to reset his Sorcerer, Necromancer, and Druid Skill tree, and since he had a maximum level on all three of those characters the changes that he made wherein he maximized all of his defensive spells didn’t affect the spell line up much. When he was satisfied with the skill points arrangement that he did for all three of the characters that would work well in the real world including the newly maximized defensive spells, Anton returned to inscribing the mana structure of the spell but this time, he would check on up to what level he could inscribe to the silver buckle.

  Anton was really gd that modifying the mana structure of the spells to increase their level wasn’t too complicated and he was soon able to do it but he knew that the main problem that the user of the item would encounter was the mana that was going to be drawn by the higher level spells from the mana storage would increase significantly. That meant that he really couldn’t inscribe a level twenty armor spells onto the item.

  Anton tried inscribing a level fourteen Frozen Armor spell first but the silver buckle suddenly melted which made him fbbergasted. That meant that the silver material would not be able to handle powerful spells.

  He made several silver buckles and through trial and error, found out that he could only inscribe up to level-five armor spells to the silver buckle and that the item could only be used up ten times before the buckle got destroyed so he added a number that would indicate how many uses were left and was gd that the mana structure for that was simple enough to be added.

  When the prototype for the magic belt was done, Anton was happy and since he had two more buckles left, he made a second and third magic belt. He exited his Diablo II system and was surprised to see that it was already six in the evening.

  Anton went out of his room and saw that everyone was in the suite talking with each other.

  “Good news! I completed the magic defensive item that I was making!” Anton happily announced.
