The cooldown may be shortened, If an additional source of energy or outside source of energy is used to charge the Gauntlets . ]
Reading the description, Quinn was over the moon with the results . It was more than he was expecting, and he was finding it hard to hold his smile in . Alex noticed this as well, and now his suspicions were confirmed . For whatever reason, it seemed like Quinn had an eye for things .
He couldn't have been a forger himself though, otherwise, why would he have the need to seek him out . Alex thought . He thought Quinn was a strange character, but he had now started to grow to like him . Not only because of the opportunity he had presented, but also because he was the first customer that had truly appreciated his work .
Quinn couldn't be upset . First, the gauntlets increased his strength by a whole ten points . This meant his strength would now be at fifty when being used, putting him up to the next bracket . Then there was the active skill . It wasn't just any active skill though; it was an elemental one . These were one of the more rare types of active skills available .
Now, Quinn understood what Alex was talking about . How all the beasts having the same elemental attribute helped him in creating the weapon . Once more he couldn't help but thank Leo enough for supplying him with the crystals . If he was on his own, it would have nearly been impossible to come up with the money, or hunt the beats to obtain such things .
"I feel sorry for whoever is going to be your first test subject with these things . I think you're the only first-year student I know with advanced tier gauntlets . " Alex said .
Quinn wanted to test the equipment straight away, however, there was a problem . If he went out as the Night demon, he wouldn't be able to use it . They were a dead giveaway that would lead back to him, eventually . If he used it in the game or at night, then people would be able to relate the things back to him . So he would just have to save them in his inventory for now .
"Thank you . " Quinn said with his hand held out . In the end, the whole thing hadn't really cost him anything and he could tell this would be a great partnership for the future .
"For the future . " Alex said, shaking his hand back .

When lessons were finally over, there was still a time period between when the sky would turn dark . Usually, Quinn would use this time to play the VR game, but instead today, he had decided to head back to his dorm room . There he waited patiently until Vorden had finally returned as well .
"Long time no see . " Vorden said . "I thought you would be playing that game again today?"
"Hah, yeah sorry about that . " Quinn replied . "You know what's going on . Anyway, forget about that Vorden . I wanted to give you something to help you out . After all, if it wasn't for you and your family, I would have never been able to fight in that tournament, here . " Quinn said as he put forward both of his hands .
Shadows started to form, and when they disappeared, two short swords had appeared . The two short swords had the same shape to them, they were quite thick and had a slight curve going to the top . Near to the hilt, an arrow design was seen on the base of the sword . However, the two swords were entirely different colours . While one sword was black with the arrow being white, the other was white with the arrow at the base being black .
Vorden wasn't going to say no to a free gift . He actually felt like Quinn owed him something ever since he was nearly killed by him on the red portal planet . But he wasn't going to bring that up now . He took up the two swords and thought, all though they were thick and looked heavy they were actually incredibly light .
Vorden then started to perform a few slashes in the air with them . At first, they were slow as if he was testing the weight of the things, but eventually, he started to speed up . With each strike, the sound of the wind could be heard, and it was only getting louder and faster until he eventually stopped .
"Sorry I got a little carried away there . It's been a long time since I used weapons . " Vorden said . "It also seems like the two different swords are giving me a different boost . The black sword is giving me raw power and strength, while the white sword is giving me speed . "
"Well, as expected, you're good with everything . " Quinn replied . "There's also an active skill, but I'll let you figure that out for yourself . I think they'll come in handy for when you don't have an ability on hand . There aren't always going to be people around you, and you're good at close combat, so these look more than perfect for you . I can only see it as a plus that they will make you more versatile . "
What Quinn said had made sense . The only thing Vorden needed now was a trendy belt and sheath around his waist, or maybe one around his back where he could put the weapons in . He hadn't been spending his allowance that his family sent him regularly, and he was surprised it still hadn't stopped . So he should have enough to buy some himself .
"Thanks for this Quinn these are great, though if you can, maybe you should make a bow for Layla at some point . " Said Vorden .
"Don't worry, I plan to . I owe you all for how much you've helped me so far . By the way, how are the others?" Quinn asked .
"Others?" Vorden said, looking confused for a second, then he quickly realised that Quinn was referring to Raten and Sil . He had forgotten that Quinn knew about his secret .
"They are troublemakers, but they're doing fine . " Vorden replied .
The two of them remained in the room and decided to catch up with each other a bit . After all, they hadn't really talked to each other for the past two weeks . Soon the sun started to set and finally, it was pitch black outside .
"All right, I better get going to the VR centre again," Quinn said as he lifted his arms up and got off the bed .
"Quinn, I know you're not going to the VR centre," Vorden said . "I know you're the Night Demon or whatever they call it . Look, I'm not going to tell you to stop . What you're doing has actually had a positive impact on the entire school, but I just want to warn you . Whatever you do, don't use your shadow powers .
"I know it's quite obvious as to why, but it's more serious than you think . After we found out about what Duke had done to Peter, I started to look into things a bit more and discovered the school isn't normal . Sure bullying and discrimination happen at all bases, and even in the outside world, but I have never seen it this extreme before . "
"I already told you this before, but I got in contact with my brother just to confirm it, and when he went to his military school at another base, they didn't turn a blind eye as much as these teachers do . This whole thing, with the bullying and the second-year students being involved . It's more like an organized crime ring . If Duke finds out you're interfering with it, then he might come after you personally . "
Quinn wasn't ignoring his words, but continued to walk towards the door, and he then opened it, but before closing it, he spoke . "Good, because that's exactly what I want," Quinn said as he closed the door .
