"Is it that simple?"
Lind was fiddling with the "rapier" in his hand. He had mastered the techniques of the Sword Demon and understood why, as a deity, he could become a "Ring Knight".
The power of the Ring of Magic could be utilized by anyone, it was just that most people used it in the most superficial way, forging weapons, just like Lind himself.
There was nothing wrong with relying on external objects, but it was too limited, one could only use the finished products.
Ring Knights, no doubt, represented a further advancement in the utilization of the shards.
Tione could transform into a Nuclear Bomb Nun, and despite the suboptimal application of that power, in a low-end fight, Rania's mushroom cloud strike had the largest range and was the most effective offensive move.
Because, each time she swung her sword to burst out a cloud of mushrooms, it was a normal attack, no different from Lind's Vertical Slash, and it didn't waste any extra power.
