You Can Use Magic Too?
Dave explained, "It's true. When I handed him the ring myself, I saw it wrapped around his finger just like it did when I was a child. I'm not mistaken about that."
Balthazar looked at Dave before him, and thought of Merlin's dying words: whoever could wear this ring would be the new Prime Merlinian, and would kill Morgana.
Could there be two Prime Merlinian? He then said, "In that case, let's go see the person who has gained the ring's approval first, and then take him with us to find the Grimhold."
Dave refused, saying, "No, I... I have my own life."
Balthazar looked at Dave and said, "Maxim knows the Grimhold are in your hands, and he will never let you go."
"Unless you make him turn you into a physics-study pig, you'd better come with me and help me find the Grimhold after we meet that gentleman who bought the ring."
At this point, Balthazar did not intend to give up on Dave until he saw that the buyer could actually wear the Dragon Ring. He also had a backup plan in case anything went wrong.
Even if the Dragon Ring chooses a new master, Dave's talent is still considerable, and he can still be trained into an outstanding Mage.
Dave looked at the other person and said, "Hmm, hmm, this is too much. Do you know how much this is?"
Balthazar glanced at Dave and said, "Alright, alright, help me find the Grimhold, and you'll be fine."
"Really?" Dave asked.
"From now on, we're completely cut off."
Dave nodded in agreement.
Seeing this, Balthazar waved his hand and immediately located the Dragon Ring: "OK, come with me, let's go see the gentleman who bought the ring first."

Charlotte Agency.
The Training Room had already been restored by the staff, and Charlotte, wearing the Dragon Ring, was practicing Ninjutsu in the arena.
After some testing, he discovered that when using elemental Ninjutsu, the power was actually 10% greater than usual. Don't underestimate this 10% increase in power; often, this 10% increase results in a completely different level of damage.
However, only elemental Ninjutsu can be amplified, such as Fire Style, Wind Style, Lightning Style, and Earth Style, but Taijutsu and Strength of a Hundred remain unchanged.
Charlotte didn't understand the specific reason for this phenomenon, but she guessed that the Dragon Ring had classified this type of Ninjutsu as magic and amplified it.
Amplification magic is precisely the function this ring is meant to have.
Suddenly, a force appeared on the ring, as if it wanted to take Charlotte and the ring away together.
"Drink!"
Charlotte roared, her Chakra surging, forcefully severing the force, and the inexplicable gravitational pull vanished.
As Charlotte dispersed the surging Chakra within her, she secretly wondered, could it be that the plot has already begun?
Thinking that the other party would likely come to find him soon, he stopped training. He had already discovered some of the ring's effects, and there was no need to rush the rest.
Whether it will be kept as a Ninjutsu amplifier or used for in-game purchases depends on how things ultimately develop.
After leaving the Training Room, Charlotte went upstairs to take a shower, then went downstairs to the Rest Area, where she drank whiskey and waited for the other party to arrive.
······
At that moment, Balthazar drove his car and brought Dave to the intersection of 71st Avenue, Forest Hills, Queens.
The road was still closed, so the two parked their car and got out, walking all the way to the entrance of Charlotte Agency.
Sensing the ring's aura, Balthazar knew its owner was inside, and said, "Let's go, your buyer is inside."
At that moment, the Agency doorman saw the two people about to enter and opened the door. "Please come in!"
Upon entering the Agency, Balthazar, relying on his connection to the Dragon Ring, found himself in the Rest Area and immediately spotted Charlotte drinking in a booth.
Following Balthazar's gaze, Dave also looked over and, upon seeing Charlotte, immediately said, "Yes, it's him. I sold the Dragon Ring to him."
Balthazar then walked towards Charlotte's booth and sat down in front of Charlotte.
Looking at the man in front of him, and noticing the Dragon Ring on the man's index finger, Balthazar hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Hello sir, I am the Mage Balthazar."
"This Dragon Ring on your hand was previously in my possession, and my job was to find its owner and teach them magic."
Charlotte looked at the two people in front of her, and at Balthazar, who went Gate of Opening, then smiled and said, "Dave, you do it too."
Seeing this, Dave sat down next to Balthazar and looked at Charlotte somewhat awkwardly.
After all, his behavior seemed to expose the buyer's information, which was somewhat unethical.
Charlotte held out her hand, showing off the Dragon Ring on her finger, and then said, "I bought this ring from Dave, and it's now my personal property. Is that alright?"
Dave quickly said, "No problem, I've sold you the item, and of course, the corresponding responsibilities are also transferred to you."
Balthazar then said, "I'm not here to take the ring back. I'm just its guardian, responsible for finding its owner. Dave was able to wear it before, but he sold it to you, and you've become its owner. So, the ring belongs to you."
"I will, as the heir to the ring, impart magic to you and make you the new Prime Merlinian!"
"As for what magic is..."
Balthazar clasped his hands together and then released them, a ball of flame appearing in his palms. The flame then went out, and a ball of lightning appeared in his palms.
Watching Balthazar's performance, Charlotte smiled. Mage do have many merits and many unique spells, Mirror Dimension, shapeshifting, transportation, and even Steel Eagle, but they also have many weaknesses.
Dave watched Balthazar's performance with curiosity on his face. Was this the magic he had encountered as a child?
At this moment, Charlotte stretched out a palm in front of everyone, and lightning flashed instantly, revealing the prototype of Chidori.
Is this the kind of magic?
Balthazar was stunned when he saw the Flash in Charlotte's hand. This was not what he had expected, and the Flash in Charlotte's hand was also different from his Flash.
Dave, standing to the side, gaped in disbelief. He hadn't expected that his buyer was actually a Mage.
At this moment, Balthazar sensed a peculiar fluctuation emanating from Charlotte, something like magic yet different, but also like a source of magical power.
"Who taught you magic?"
Upon hearing Balthazar's words, Charlotte dispersed the Chidori from her hand and then said, "This is not magic!"
