Lathel grabbed the space bag, his face clearly showing joy: "Thank you! Thank you, Alec..."

"Hahaha... no need to thank me, we are best friends." Alec said with a smile.

After that, Alec looked into the chest, which still had a lot of gold coins and other items, but he did not feel happy.

Lathel put his hand inside the bag, he felt that this bag was too magical. Although the bag was only hand-sized, the inside seemed quite spacious.

He felt that the space in this bag was similar to the chest he had just taken from the Goblin cave. Which was about 1 meter wide.

However, Lathel also had no intention of using this bag. He had an extremely large space inside the system.

It looked like Lathel was checking the objects inside the bag, but in reality, he was bringing the objects inside the bag into the system space.

After placing everything in the system's storage space, Lathel happily sat with his back against the tree and began checking everything.

Alec gave him 200 gold coins and about 500 silver coins. Of course, there were also several Rank E Earth Elemental Stones inside.

However, his attention was focused on an extremely ordinary Earth Elemental Stone.

"Remove the disguise." Lathel silently ordered.

Right now, that ordinary, unremarkable Earth Elemental Stone instantly turned into a five-colored stone.

Looking at the stone, Lathel smiled with satisfaction.

'There hasn't been any announcements at all. Looks like... I guessed right.'

'Even though this is an item that should belong to Alec, however, if Alec does not realize that it is disguised and actively gives it to me, the system will not consider it as the main character's item anymore.'

'Ah! However, this is also too dangerous. Luckily the system didn't say this is forbidden.'

'If not, I won't know how to return this stone to Alec.'

That's right, Lathel wanted to take this stone by making it seem like one of the stones in the treasure chest.

In fact, he didn't know what those brown stones were, however, he just thought that this stone was more special than those ordinary brown stones.

Surely this was an item for the main character, and those brown stones were just attached gifts.

At that moment, Lathel came up with an idea to use the camouflage skill to turn this 5-color stone into one of the brown stones in the chest.

He just wanted to take a gamble, he also wanted to see if Alec would give him those brown stones.

After that, the goddess of luck took Lathel's side. Even though Lathel didn't know what those stones were, he knew for sure that those stones were useless to Alec.

That's why he easily threw those stones to Lathel without hesitation.

'Sigh, next time I won't do that again. It's Dangerous, too dangerous.'

'I only have one life in this world, if I lose this opportunity...'

'Luckily Alec checked the chest quickly. With my current amount of mana points, I can only maintain the camouflage skill for a short time.'

Lathel shook his head, not wanting to think about it anymore. Anyway, now that he got this strange stone, there was another problem.

What is this stone?

What is its use?

What is its effect?

Can I use it?

Many questions appeared in Lathel's mind. However, he had too little information as the handbook only provided him with a little general information about this world.

Lathel frowned, he glanced at Alec then pretended to take out a brown stone, and looked at it intensely.

"Hm?! Don't you know what this stone is? After Alec put the entire treasure chest in his own space bag, he looked at Lathel and asked.

"Um..." Lathel nodded, his face showing stupidity and confusion: "I... I don't know what this stone is."

"Ah! Have you never come into contact with an Elemental Stone?"

"Elemental Stone? What is that?" Lathel asked again.

Alec felt that Lathel was a bit foolish. An Elemental Stone was an extremely important thing, but he didn't know about it, which proves that Lathel was indeed from a village in a very remote place.

Alec even thought that there weren't any magicians living in that village, and there wasn't even anyone in that village capable of using magic.

That was the only explanation that could explain why Lathel knew nothing about the Elemental Stone.

Alec frowned, arranged the words in his head a bit, then explained: "Maybe you don't know many things, so... I'll explain the most basic things."

"Basically, this world has 5 basic types of elements: Metal, Wood, Water, Fire and Earth. Of course there are many other types of elements that exist, but they are extremely rare so we don't need to mention them."

"These stones are formed by the elemental energy in crystallized space."

"The nature of the world will influence the energy in this world, so the magician's power is also related to the elements."

"For example, your Talent is the Earth element, you can absorb the Earth energy found in space and nature to add to your energy pool."

"However, you can choose to absorb stones of the same element as your talent, so your energy recovery speed will be faster."

"In fact, the energy inside the stone will be purer than the mixed natural energy outside."

"The higher the Elemental Stone's rank, the greater and purer the energy inside."

"But most people don't use these stones as a source of stored energy, but use them for leveling up."

Hearing that, Lathel immediately understood what Alec said. In fact, everything was extremely easy to understand.

Lathel's talent was Earth, so he could only absorb an Earth Elemental Stone.

The higher the Elemental Stone's rank, the stronger the energy within that stone.

Lathel rubbed his chin and asked: "So... what do the other Elemental Stones look like?"

"Earth is brown like the stone you hold in your hand. Metal is silver, Fire is red, Wood is green, Water is blue."

"The darker the color and the brighter the light of the stone, shows the quality of the stone."

Lathel nodded, he frowned and asked: "So... are there any two-colored or three-colored stones in this world?"

"Hm..." Alec rubbed his chin, as he pretended to think, but in reality he was asking his master.

Lathel glanced at the silent Alec, smiling inwardly: 'Perhaps... he is asking the existence hiding inside his necklace.'

'Ah! Being a main character is truly amazing, you have the main character's aura to protect you, you're lucky in everything you do. There's even a terrifying existence that protects and trains all the time.'

'okay. If you don't compare yourself with him you won't feel heartbroken.'

A moment later, Alec smiled and replied: "Actually, there are some special types of Elemental Stone that have two or more colors."

"However, they are very rare. If it is an Elemental Stone of two or more colors, its Rank is definitely D or higher."

"The highest is the 7-color Elemental Stone, its Rank is S. However, it doesn't seem to have been seen yet. All knowledge about the 7 Elemental Stone colors is only found in ancient documents."

"An elemental stone with 6 colors is Rank A. 5 colors is Rank B. However, if the 5 colors are mixed with black and white, they can also be classified as Rank A."

"Their value is extremely high. A 5-color Elemental Stone costs up to 1 billion gold coins, even if you have money, it is difficult to buy it." freewebno vel.co m

"With 1 billion gold coins, you can buy a vast land, countless slaves, soldiers, hire adventurers and become a lord. You can live happily for over 100 years without worrying about any problems."

"Heh?! Rank A? But what is their use? Is it possible that the value is so high just for leveling up?" Lathel was truly surprised by the value of multicolored elemental stones.

Alec shook his head: "No. Multi-colored elemental stones also have a very special function, which is to help you evolve your Talent Rank."

"What?! Can Talent rank evolve?

"That's right. However, I advise you not to use them because the number of successful people can be counted on one hand. And the number of deaths is countless."

Listening to Alec, Lathel felt a bit confused and worried.

Alec continued: "Sigh, you are simple-minded. Everyone is born different, Talent Rank is the highest limit of your body."

"If the talent evolves, that means your entire body must change. To be more precise, you must destroy your body, then try to recover it to reach a higher state."

"Do you understand what I mean? You must destroy your body, it's like being born again."

"That's why the success rate is extremely low, so low that you don't need to care about its existence."

Lathel took a deep breath, then nodded: "It seems... if I find a multi-colored elemental stone, just selling it will be enough to live happily for the rest of my life, hahaha..."

"Hahaha..." Alec also laughed: "Your thinking is really simple. If multicolored elemental stones were so easy to find, their value wouldn't be high."

"Two-color elemental stones are the easiest to find, however, their value is also very high. Tri-colored elemental stones can only be found in high-level auction rooms."

"Elemental stones of four or more colors... Sigh, don't think too much, only extremely powerful magicians have a chance to find them."
