"Here are 5 Illusion Stones and each of them have a range of 100 metres and can last for 10 minutes depending on the amount of Internal Energy that you provide them. You can hold them in this pouch that is specially designed for cultivators" said Angela.

Angela handed to Adam a small pouch to carry the charms and Illusion Stones in and it was a tight fit around his body and very tightly closed, making it perfect for him to carry around with him, even during a battle.

The Maxwell Family and all the other large cultivation families not only had the advantage over other cultivators in terms of wealth, power and knowledge, but they were also extremely well equipped, making it easy for them to face opponents that had a higher cultivation level.

"The pouch is very durable and can take quite a lot of impact, and also had a large storage space than you think" stated Angela as Adam put on the pouch and placed within it the 5 Illusion Stones.

It seemed like a plain and ordinary black pouch, but Adam could see that it was very well made and designed, while it was also just like she had said and the inside was bigger than he thought it was.

"I don't really know how it is like that either, but I think it must be due to the material or some sort of rune, but the pouch can hold double what somebody would assume that the small pouch would be able to hold" informed him Angela, seeing that Adam was amazed by it.

"There is also other stuff to arm yourself with. Here are 5 strength charm, 5 speed charms, 5 armament charms and 5 protective charms," said Angela as she handed over to him 20 stones that had different rune imprints on them.

Adam memorised how they looked with a single glance, but he knew that even if he knew how they looked, he would have no chance in forming them himself as it wasn't as easy as marking a stone.

All of the charms required Internal Energy to use them as it was the fuel that the rune needed to carry out its function, however, all the charms that she gave him could only physically enhance the activator.

The strength charm for the strength stat, the speed charm for the speed stat, the armament charm for the resistance stat and the protective charm would form something similar to the Energy Sleeve Technique, from what Adam had gathered from what Angela had told him.

"How long do these charms last and how strong are there enhancements?" asked Adam as he put the charms that were the same size and shape as the Illusion Stones into the pouch that Angela had given him.

"Well, they last for at most 10 minutes, depending on the amount of energy that you provide them. While the enhancement that it gives is around 1 times the power of an average human" answered Angela.

Hearing her answer, Adam was pleasantly surprised. 

Each of the charms would enhance a specific stat by 10 points, which was an incredible amount. If they were used by an ordinary person that wasn't a cultivator, they would be able to double their stats.

"However don't start having wild ideas. Your body will be able to barely handle one of the enhancements and it is not recommended to use more than one. These are powerful and valuable charms that should only be used if you are backed into a corner and have no choice. If you use more than one at once and more than your body can handle, your body will suffer severe backlash and you might even destroy your cultivation" warned Angela sternly.

"Just like a steroid, although it has incredible effects, it also can cause backlash and side effects. If an ordinary person were to use it, they would probably die afterwards and wouldn't be able to activate it without Internal Energy anyway" added Angela.

"Yes I know that, I will be careful," said Adam, seeing how serious Angela was about her warning.

Adam was glad that cultivators also measured power using the power expected from an ordinary human, which he could equate to 10 system points and found that the system's ranking and grading system was either identical or very similar to that of the cultivators that he had come across so far.

After seeing that everything else in the bag that Angela had with her, was just other charms and Illusion Stones that were the same as the ones that Angela had given to him, Adam assumed that there was nothing else that she was going to give to him.

However, he was by no means complaining or being ungrateful and was happy with everything that she had informed him of and given him. 

"Thanks for all the charms and Illusion Stones, but where should we go to first?" asked Adam, seeing that they had finished arming themselves.

"What do you mean, where should we go first? Isn't that what we are meant to ask you since this was your idea?" refuted Angela.

"Um, well, I guess we should go to the Epstein Family Headquarters," said Adam, realising that she was right about him suggesting the idea of going to the Epstein Family in the first place.

"Are you crazy, stupid or both? Do you really think you can just walk into the Headquarters of the Epstein Family and talk to their family head?" retorted Angela.

"We are entering territory that isn't my family's and we know nothing about it. The information that is publically known doesn't even tell us anything about the Epstein Family itself and they are very secretive and secure. It is very unlikely they will let us into their headquarters even if I revealed who I was. Even if they did let us in, they definitely won't allow us to have a meeting with the family head" said Angela.

"The family head is said to be young and extremely intelligent, but nobody outside the family has seen the family head and even within the family, only those in high positions get to talk directly to the family head" continued Angela.

Adam knew that everything she said was right and that his idea despite solving all of the Maxwell Family's issues was easier said than done.
