Chapter 4 Equuleus Bronze Cloth
Moen can understand some of Laxus's current mindset and personality changes.
As the grandson of Makarov, and even his biological grandson, Laxus carries immense pressure and expectations.
After all, Makarov Dole's name was renowned throughout the entire continent of Ishgar, and he was one of the "Ten Wizard Saints".
This title was awarded by the Magic Council of the Ishgar Continent. These are the ten most outstanding mages on the Ishgar Continent, each of whom has made outstanding contributions and possesses powerful magic that can change the world. They can be said to be S-class mages among S-class mages!
Laxus's biggest label has always been "Makarov's grandson." If things are done well, that's what "Makarov's grandson" should do; if things are done poorly, that's "disgracing Makarov."
The expectations and pressure brought by her grandfather's prestige turned this originally well-behaved, sensible, and warm-hearted child into an extreme.
Unable to receive genuine feedback and constantly scrutinized with critical and harsh eyes, Laxus began to obsessively pursue power, wanting to surpass Makarov, the mountain weighing him down.
Compared to Laxus, Moen has it much easier, since he was adopted and people tend to be more tolerant and understanding of him.
When Moen displayed his remarkable magical talent, people praised him, saying that Makarov was lucky to have found such a talented grandson.
In a sense, this obvious differential treatment is one of the reasons that has contributed to Laxus's current personality.
Moen went upstairs to his room on the third floor. Grandpa Makarov lived on the first floor, the second floor was the study and "that man's" former room, and the third floor was Moen and Laxus's room.
Back in his room, Moen immediately took out the "Equus Bronze Cloth".
This Saint Cloth was stored in the storage space of the [Saint Seiya System]. Some of the mission rewards that Moen had previously obtained could also be stored in it, but this storage space could only store items produced by the [Saint Seiya System].
"Clang!"
A square box landed on the floor with a heavy thud. The box was not small, and it had intricate patterns on it, as well as the symbol of the constellation "Equuleus".
This box is also a treasure; it's a special box for storing Saint Cloths, similar to a "life support device for Saint Cloths." It's a dedicated box made for each Saint Cloth, which can promote the self-repair function of that Saint Cloth.
The Saint Cloths are alive, just like living things. They have the ability to self-repair and self-evolve. Each time they are repaired after being damaged, they will evolve, and their weight and appearance will even change as a result.
At this moment, Moen could clearly feel the connection with this Saint Cloth, and he could feel the Saint Cloth's vibrant energy.
"Click."
With a thought, Moen channeled his magic into the Saint Cloth Box.
The Saint Cloth box immediately opened, revealing the Saint Cloth inside. It was a Saint Cloth with a blue base color, adorned with red and silver accents, and overall depicted a leaping horse.
"Come on, let me see what you really look like."
With a thought, Moen's "Equus Bronze Cloth" immediately began to tremble, and then quickly disintegrated and transformed into armor parts.
The armor on the four horse legs flew up and covered Moen's arms and legs, with red crystals adorning the arm and leg armor.
The horse's head then constricts and opens into a headband shape, resting on Moen's head. This headband is very similar to that of Pegasus, with a small horse head-shaped decoration in the front and a pair of small wings on the sides.
The horse's body transformed into shoulder armor, breastplate, and battle skirt, protecting its upper body and waist. The coverage of this armor is quite considerable, at least among bronze armors, it covers a relatively large area, with most of the key parts covered.
"It fits quite well."
Moen shifted his body. He was not yet twelve years old and was at the age where he was growing. He could be said to change every year. But there was no need to worry. The Saint Cloth could be adjusted according to the owner's physique. As the owner grew, the Saint Cloth would also grow. The Saint Cloth would always appear in the form that best fit the owner.
"It's definitely been localized, otherwise I shouldn't be able to wear it."
Moen clenched his fist and felt a powerful force surge into his body. In addition to its protective function, the Saint Cloth could also significantly enhance his physical abilities and magic usage efficiency, making it more useful than he had imagined.
Under normal circumstances, a Saint must unleash their Cosmo to unite their Cloth with their spirit and unleash its full potential. Otherwise, the Cloth is merely a heavy suit of armor and will not provide any enhancement to the Saint.
But for Moen, none of these were problems. From the moment he obtained the Saint Cloth, it recognized him as its master. This was the effect of the [Saint Seiya System].
Wearing the "Equus Cloth," Moen pulled out a picture book with various constellations drawn on it. Sure enough, there was "Equus," which is also one of the "Northern Constellations." It is right after "Pegasus." Only the horse's head is visible in the star chart. It is the second to last constellation, only slightly larger than the Southern Cross.
The picture book in Moen's hand is about "Celestial Magic," which is a type of spatial summoning magic and is also closely related to constellations.
"Celestial Spirit Magic" is very rare. It is an ancient magic that can summon celestial spirits from the Celestial Spirit Realm. People who use this magic are called "Celestial Spirit Mages". They fight by summoning celestial spirits. To summon a celestial spirit, one must possess a Gate Key. Only by using the key as a medium can one summon the celestial spirit corresponding to the key.
Clearly, this is a completely different system from Moen's magic. Moen is just using the name "Celestial Spirit Magic" as a cover. He doesn't know how to name his magic. He can't just call it "Saint Seiya Magic," can he?
"receive!"
With a thought, Moen retrieved the "Equus Bronze Cloth." The Cloth immediately left his body and returned to the Cloth Box, reassembling into the "Equus" form.
After retrieving the Saint Cloth Box from the Saint Seiya System, Moen tried several more times. He was able to summon the "Equuleus Bronze Cloth" directly without having to summon the Saint Cloth Box, thus skipping a step.
"This is no different from a costume-changing spell."
Moen was quite satisfied with this feature. "Changing clothes magic" is a spatial magic, which is basically a must-have magic for melee mages.
After mastering this magic, a portable armory will be created, where weapons can be stored. During battle, the "weapon-changing magic" can be used to quickly switch weapons, eliminating the need to carry weapons with you, which is very convenient.
Erza is a master of this magic, but she is even more outstanding. The magic she masters is "Changing Magic: Knight". Her armory is very large and can not only store weapons, but also many kinds of armor for her to change into.
Basic "Costume Change Magic" only opens up a small arsenal and can only change the weapon in hand. High-end "Costume Change Magic" like "Knight" is not something that everyone can master. Now, Moen has essentially mastered "Costume Change Magic: Knight".
