The Goddess Made A Mistake Again-Chapter 111 - Sigmat Ring

My chin was sitting on my enclosed hands as I looked at the item in front of me.

Before me stood a long desk, now that you don’t get misunderstood, this desk wasn’t the same office desk that I had before. That one got blown away because of a punch I threw on that situation with the girl assassin.

This was a new desk, in my now new office which was much bigger and better looking than the previous one. The new desk was made from marble and was completely white with some designer spots on it… man I get way too confused sometimes, don’t I.

To the point now, on the new white marble desk was a ring. This ring was made of pure silver and in its face stood a pink colored crystal. This ring was an extremely important part of the story.

It was a Sigmat Ring.

A ring that can be used to generate magic… yeah, fantastic I know. Now the reason why I am telling you this has a major reason… no wait, it’s two. But I’ll get on to that later.

This ring, which can generate magic out of thin air is incredible but each ring is only limited to one nature. There were five different natures that sigmat rings had – Water, Fire, Amplification, Air and Lightning.

In those order, the power also differed too. For example, Water was the weakest of them all and Lightning was by far the fastest and strongest of the natures. But their learning curve too was in that order, from easiest to hardest.

Water was the easiest for anyone to learn as it flowed smoothly and could be controlled easily while Lightning was the worst, its speed and power were terrifying so controlling it took someone very talented.

But there was a myth that even among those five... there was some crystals that said to have other natures too. Which were almost non-existent, which was why they remained a myth.

Now sigmat rings was something that I may tone it simple, but to these people, it was a godsend. The rings didn’t need specific requirements from people to use it, anyone could use it by just simply wearing the ring.

Its real power didn’t come from the silver but from the crystal. The Crystal was something that had a tune which it could connect to the nature and call forth its specific link, bringing life from nothing to everything.

Sigmat Rings were founded only a few years ago so there wasn’t much information about them.

Most of the knowledge were locked, away from the eyes of everyone besides the nobles who claimed they had a right to them. The only knowledge that could be found were on books that anyone could buy now, the same ones that I bought for Alice.

I looked at the ring as its pink crystal mirrored the light falling on it.

The color of the crystal had significant meaning to it. Each crystals color determined how much powerful the ring would be.

Red – Yellow – Blue – Pink – Black

Red colored crystal could only draw a few specs of its nature and Black could draw so much power that it defied one’s imagination.

For example, a red fire crystal could be used to light up dark areas or throw small fireballs, anything more than that was almost impossible. While black would be able to summon forth powerful heat that would rival the sun.

But as such, it had its problems too. The rarer the crystal, the harder it was for the wearer to use the rings power. If someone with a weak will tried to use a black fire sigmat, then with just a flick of his finger, he might burn themselves to a crisp or cause a big explosion.

Not only that, the rarer the crystal the harder it was to find. That’s why the only two people who have black crystal sigmat rings are only the king of this kingdom and the final boss of this story… which I wasn’t alive long enough to read about.

So I was a bit surprised that the bald bastard actually was able to secure a sigmat ring of pink rarity. It was the second rarest ring there was and he had one!

Unfortunately, it was also the weakest nature, Water. I would have liked if it was Air or even Fire but I had to be satisfied with the pink rarity.

This will help me immensely in public or other situations where I can’t use my black hole ability.

Now the reason why this is important to me.

The only way I can live freely is if I get enough recognition and for me to gain recognition in this medieval world, I would either have to be a renowned noble or a war hero.

Because of my shameful birth by a maid, the noble path was locked out but I could still be a war hero. Now I couldn’t just willy nilly go to a recruitment center and join the army, NO!

That literally meant cannon fodder. They were always put in the front lines of every fight and there was almost zero chance of promotion. No, I have to get a huge step higher and enter the noble academy where the Protagonist will go too so he could gather his allies and get revenge.

Arthur too was in a situation like me where he couldn’t get into the academy like that. He needed a special pardon which would permit him to join. So how does he get it then?

Every year a competition happens in the academy which gives a chance for people to get admitted to the royal academy.

This is an aristocratic era but even being that, the nobles knew the general people needed to be reassured somehow. So every year, the capital would host a competition, which would test the commoners and give them a chance at being equal to the hierarchy.

Those who win will get admitted into the fine royal academy and become the best of the kingdom.

Pure bullshit if I may, it didn’t change the social status at all. Even if someone won the competition and was accepted in the academy, the only thing that awaited them were snotty impotent young masters that would insult you into oblivion.

In the original story, this was the path that Arthur took to get inside the academy and it seems I don’t have much of a choice now too.
