There were many types of magical regeneration items with Void Dealer but Nick was looking for items he could afford. The prices were not as per his expectations. A Provec Level magical item costs about 100.000 Ether Stones. This should mean that Ether Stones were not worth much in the eyes of other beings and the dealers.
Nick inspected three different items that had magical regeneration abilities. Regeneration items are important pieces of items that could help a mage too much for words to explain. In the case of Nick
The items would be helping him out by letting him use his magical energy without getting tired.
Before he could inspect them, however, the Dealer started talking.
“By the way, just for you to be sure, the level system that you are referring to is not the same as the universally accepted system. There are some differences. Let me tell you more about it — do not worry, it is free.”
‘Imper Level – Student Level 1’
‘Prive Level – Student Level 2’
‘Provec Level – Student Level 3’
‘Magister Level – Expert Level 1’
“You don’t need more information for the time being.”
Nick listened to the Void Dealer and nodded.
“It seems that there are differences when in naming and for the standards of Void and other places. The Provec Level that was classified as strong where I came from was just a Student Level 3. Only when a being becomes a Magister Level, their name will be changed to ‘Expert Level 1’.”
Nick understood the difference but did not think about it any longer and inspected the items.
‘Starlight Ring’
‘Level = Student Level 3’
‘Description’
‘A ring created from the manipulation of light that comes from a star’
‘Abilities’
‘30% more Magical Energy Regeneration’
‘10% lesser Magical Energy Consumption’
“(Price – 100.000 Ether Stones. Or User should talk with the Void Dealer to give a different price or use a different currency)”
Nick inspected the Starlight Ring. It was a good item that would help him significantly. Magical Regeneration, in this context, would help him use more spells without stressing or tiring himself out. He was lucky that he does not have a quantitative limit on his magical energy but magical energy consumption too was affected by this ring. His spell would cost 10% lesser magical energy to activate. It might not appear to make much of a difference but Nick knew how important it was.
Nick looked at the two other items.
‘Flower Wristband’
‘Level = Student Level 3’
‘Description’
‘A wristband created from a magical flower with the name of ‘????’.’
‘Abilities’
“40% more Magical Energy Regeneration”
“10% lesser Magical Energy Consumption”
“30% more power when using ‘plant’ and natural or druidic type spells.’
‘(Price – 150,000 Ether Stones or User should talk with the Void Dealer to give a different price or use a different kind of currency)
—-
Nick understood what he could not see in the status of the Flower Wristband. It seemed that for learning it, he would need to pay more. In the end, information was something that can be bought or sold. The Void Market had no reason to sell him something like that for free.
In the end, Flower Ring has 10% more magical energy regeneration compared to the Starlight Ring and it has a different kind of passive energy that would let him have more powerful nature-type spells.
For the time being, Nick did not want this Flower Wristband.

‘Night Demon Ring’
‘Level = Student Level 3’
‘Description’
“A ring created from the essence and body part of a Night Demon.’
‘Abilities’
‘40% more Magical Energy Regeneration”
“20% lesser Magical Energy Consumption”
“10% more ‘evil nature’ in its user (The person will have 10% more tendencies to commit evil)
(Price – 150,000 Ether Stones or User should talk with the Void Dealer for a different price or use a different kind of currency)
Nick smiled seeing the last item and did not even consider buying it at all. It was easy to see what kind of item it was. The effect of the item was good, better than both Flower Wristband or Starlight Ring. But strangely, it had the same price as Starlight Ring and a lesser price than Flower Wristband.
This was because it affected the wearer’s personality. As in the previous example, 10% may not seem a lot but it was a lot when it affected basic sustenance such as behavior.
If Nick encountered 10 situations, in normal times he would do good in all these situations. But if he were to wear this ring, he would definitely be bad in at least one of these 10 situations.
Basically, this limited his behavior, letting an item control him, in the return of power. These things did not suit Nick.
Nick, without any further thinking, took his final decision.
“I would like to buy the Starlight Ring and I would like to ask something as well.”
As soon as Nick was done speaking, 150,000 Ether Stones that he had consumed and a ring manifested in his hands.
Nick then asked his question.
“Do you accept spells and other types of knowledge?”
Void Dealer smiled and nodded.
“Of course, if the spell you have is a unique spell which means the spell you have created or improved, it is worth a lot. And yes, we do accept knowledge as well.”
Nick took a deep breath and pulled out the spellbook of ‘Iron Blood Passive Shield’ in his hands. Nick showed it to Void Dealer.
Within a second, a notification manifested.
‘Iron Blood Passive Shield’
‘Level – Student Level 2’
‘Description’
‘A spell created by the mage named ‘Epsilon’. It uses Iron and Blood to form a passive shield.’
‘Price – 150,000 Ether Stones”
After the notification, Void Dealer started talking.
“The level of this shield spell was not much but it was created by you. There are two things you can do. First, sell the spell directly to us, and do not worry; you can still do whatever with your spell because we would not buy its rights. Second, put it on the market and sell it to other beings who use the Void Market. But if I were to give you advice, low-level spells usually do not sell in the open market, as there are not many people or beings who want to buy them.”
