Everyone enjoyed looking at the several treasure pieces from one of the chests the blue whales gave Anton. When he suggested to everyone that they could open the second and third chests so they could look at them, Anna said to him that they were not done yet. Based on everyone’s reactions, including his father, they agreed with his sister.
So, without anything to do, Anton joined in on the fun and inspected the gorgeous treasure pieces that came out of the chest. He did not know the history of art on Earth, much less this new world that he had been living in for less than a year, so he didn’t know if any of the pieces that he was looking at had any art significance but the only thing he could say that each and every one of them was very pretty to look at.
The inspection lasted for a whopping two hours because the girls kept discussing each pieces that caught their fancy. Anton did gave up after an hour and entered his room but he could hear everyone’s discussions.
Before Anton retired, he told his father to handle those who wanted some of the pieces from the chest, but he suggested that they kept all the treasure pieces as some sort of family treasure but maybe they could give each one of the family one piece from the chest except any magical item that they stumbled into that Anton had missed.
Anton was planning to enchant each of the treasure pieces with magic to increase their value, but before he would do that, he would study the enchantment suggestions that he received from Earth’s netizens through the forums where he created the topic asking for suggestions.
The next day, before going to the dining hall where they would eat their breakfast, Anton was surprised at how the chests that the blue whales gave him looked. They still looked antique, but now, the three chests looked clean enough that they could be displayed in any home as decorative pieces.
Apparently, Anders, Lucas, Devon, and Colin spent some time cleaning and varnishing the chests. Then they put the three chests in one corner with one of them opened and the glittering golden treasure available for anyone to see.
“Don’t worry, son. That’s just temporary. Once we inspected the contents of the remaining two chests, keep them in your spatial item,” Anders told him.
Anton immediately kept the three chests in his inventory while saying to his father that it was better to avoid tempting anyone who stumbled inside their suites since their rooms were not really secured and they didn’t have anything there that was too valuable. Even the enchanted items that they were displaying in their rooms were easily replaceable since Anton was the one who made them, and most of their base materials were not valuable, just wood and metal.
They planned to examine the contents of the two remaining chests later that night after dinner since everyone was busy during the day. The mages, including Anton, had classes, while the rest had their businesses to attend to.
The only one who was truly free was Devon since when the assassin situation was resolved, Lucas let his son go to do whatever he wanted as long as he kept up with his weapon practice to avoid getting rusty or fat.

Anton thought that Devon would not get fat because almost every night, he was in with the night women in the brothel section of the ship, and he had to heal the man from STDs frequently, with Devon requesting for Anton not to tell his father.
Devon admitted that if this had happened before they had met Anton’s family, he would have received a beating from his father since the cost of healing sexually transmitted diseases was enormous.
Of course, Anton did not agree when Devon requested for him to heal his playmates since if it became known, the ship’s healers would complain, and that would involve him and his family. When he presented that fact to Devon, it looked like the man was enlightened even though at first, he mentioned that his “girlfriends” wouldn’t tell it to anyone, which made him and Devon laugh because it was well-known that night women’s mouths were loose enough to sink ships.
After his classes ended, his classmates asked him about his playtime with the whales and the dolphins.
“I envy that you’re powerful enough to play with ocean creatures,” Fiona said softly while they were eating some sandwiches.
“Why do you do that, though? We’ve heard about you playing with the whales and dolphins before and also the time that you played with those flying fish with your non-mage friends,” Edward asked.
“Because it was fun, and I really like those Blue Whales and the Pink Dolphins. They were extremely adorable and intelligent creatures. That one time with the flying fish was for me to enjoy the time with my friends. I’m guessing, though, that that was probably the last time I would meet with the whales and the dolphins. Their behavior seemed to tell me that their route would probably not meet with the Amelia anymore.”
“We heard that those whales and dolphins gave you some enchanted items?” Rundall asked.
“They did, but those magic items were ordinary like something that can help you sleep at night,” Anton said, and he made it simple and ordinary enough to prevent any interest garnering over the magic items that his ocean friends gave him.
He did not share any more information than that because he did not want to endanger his ocean friends. If it became known that the blue whales and the pink dolphins were able to gather treasure from the ocean, some might try to capture them.
After lunch with his classmates, Anton returned to the suite and entered his bedroom. The first thing that he did was to inspect the five enchanted items that he gathered from the first chest that whales gave him.
Normally, identifying the characteristics of an unknown enchanted item was difficult, and only learned alchemist and enchanters could do it, but it was easy for Anton since when he stored a magic item in his inventory, his Diablo II system would identify and list the magic that an item had.
The first item that he inspected was a bracelet, and his Diablo II system identified it as “Bracelet of Anonra”. Its options were listed by his system the same way any Diablo II rings or amulets and the options that were stated was that its durability was fifteen over fifteen, it’s required level was a novice mage, it would add ten to mana, it would provide five percent to mana regeneration, and finally, it stated that the item had a skill which was a level one Push that had ten charges. The good thing about the skill was that it could be recharged by casting spells on it or using the mana power bank.
Anton was impressed again by the power of his Diablo II system since it could even identify an item of this world regardless where it came from. He didn’t even know if the name Anonra was a place or the creator of the item or maybe even just the user that it was made for.
The options of the first item weren’t powerful enough for Anton to be interested in it, but any of the mages in the family would be able to use it. He was now excited to learn the options of the rest of the items.
