Inside the box lay two bracelets, their presence suffused with a subtle but unmistakable magical energy.
Upon seeing them, Kyrie Lynchfield gasped, her face contorted in shock.
"Hey! Are you sure about giving those to him?"
Gin blinked in confusion, glancing between her and the bracelets.
Kyrie clamped her mouth shut, fidgeting anxiously as she alternated between looking at the bracelets and Owen Frieden.
"They're perfectly fine," Owen reassured her with a calm smile. "This wasn't an unauthorized transfer. One bracelet is for protection—something I thought Gin Mage might find useful. The other… well, it's the spatial artifact I mentioned to you before."
Gin's mind whirled, memories flooding back in a rush.
"This is… the artifact you said you were researching?" he asked in disbelief.
Owen averted his gaze, rubbing the back of his neck.
"Well… since you seemed so interested in artifacts, I thought you'd make good use of it…"
