[Description]
An incredible Holy Magic Ring made using the incredible element of Orichalcum, blessed by the holy spirits to be one of the strongest in the world of Spiritias. Forged by the power of the Holy Spirits and a blessed Blacksmith, it contains the ability to protect the wielder from demons and also to enhance their power against them. A special ring designed to fight demons by the church of the Holy Spirits. It can only be worn by those that are chosen by the rings.

“This is indeed something incredible… but only those chosen can wear it?” I wondered.
“Yeah, sadly.” Said Elizabeth.
“So if you can’t wear it… well, you can always use it for something else!” Said Elizabeth.
“It costed a fortune so I sure hope it can be worn by you.” Sighed Erdrich.
“You’ve slain various demons already; I am sure the Holy Spirits think highly of you.” Jack said.
“Try it on.” Seth said. “Let’s see what the Holy Spirits think of you, Blake.”
So this is also a trial to see if I am worthy of using such powerful ring, which can even grow even stronger as it has a Level, meaning it can level up, increase stats, and even ability effects.
My soul was reincarnated from another world, perhaps a whole different dimension. To the eyes of these god-like beings I might be an alien monster trying to invade their world, so I am not really trusting this at all.
At the very least, if things fail, I can always repurpose this ring’s materials to make something of my own. If it is made of Orichalcum, one of the strongest magic metals of the world, then I can surely make something with it.
Nonetheless, I quickly wore it on one of my fingers. The first thing I felt was a wave of light encompassing my body, enhancing my strength.
However, the moment I blinked, I found myself elsewhere.
“W h a t?”
I looked around, only finding whiteness everywhere.
With all the knowledge I had. My mind must have been sent into a mindscape, or something else, such as a separate realm that can be visited only by souls or mental projections.
And indeed, this was because of them.
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
Suddenly, several figures I couldn’t decipher their true shapes emerged, one after the other surrounding me from left to right. They were twelve, and they all shone with a different color. Red, blue, green, purple, black, white, yellow, gray, brown, orange, azure, and pink.
It was as if a council of these entities gathered to see my soul itself. They were emanating enormous quantities of power, spiritual power so high and powerful that it made my soul tremble. I had never been in front of such powerful beings before. The only comparison being Lucifer, perhaps.
The brightest of them all was the biggest and tallest, a golden mass of light in the slight shape of a human, wearing a long white cloak, sitting over a throne of nothingness.
“I can assume you’re the Holy Spirits of this world, right?” I asked boldly. “I had no idea Priests had to go through a Trial with you to wear a mere ring.”
“It is no mere ring, outsider.”
“It is a special ring imbued with the holy spirit’s strength.”
“A small gift given to our believers to protect them and help them defeat the invaders of our world.”
“However, wouldn’t it be rather ironic to gift it to you, an outsider?”
“We have been watching you ever since you were born.”
“A soul brought here by the King of all Demons, strangely enough, not a demon of your own.”
“Your past… your achievements, we’ve seen it all.”
“We knew who you truly are…”
So they can even read my mind somehow? This is unnerving.
“And because of that, we have also seen your growth.”
“My growth?” I asked.
“You’ve changed…”
“You have not taken into a dark path, but you’ve, unknowingly, become our greatest hope.”
“Me?!” I asked in surprise.
“It might be a surprise to you, but you’re someone promising.”
“You’re no longer Asmodeus, you’re Blake, a child raised by Farmers in a humble village terrorized by monsters, bandits, and cultists that adored the demons.”
“You’ve fought those that bring pain to our people…”
“You are more than deserving of this ring.”
The Holy Spirits suddenly began to praise my small achievements, making me feel rather… shocked, to say the least. I never expected this development from all of them to happen. I had thought they would be enraged over my existence, but I was wrong.
“Lucifer gave me a second chance at life because he wanted to see me suffer.” I spilled the beans, as they knew who I used to be and everything else. “He gave me a Grimoire with incredible powers, but it also allows him to see me. If you truly believe my actions are of help, will you help me break the curse he has put into me?”
“A good request.”
“However, that we cannot.”
“The curse has been put deep within your soul; it is impossible for us to take it out.”
