Surviving the Magic Academy With Just Intelligence Stats-Chapter 67: Letter

My dearest Ambrose,

I hope this letter finds you well (Are you taking your medicine? The blue ones in the morning and the red ones before bed. Or was it the other way around? Just make sure to take them!). Mama has to go away for a little while, but don’t worry! I’ve prepared everything you might need. There are three months’ worth of medicines in your spatial ring (I labeled them by day, and there are backups of the backups, just in case).

Remember to wear your jacket when it gets cold - actually, wear it even if it’s not cold. Better safe than sorry! And ALWAYS keep your blindfold on in public. I know you think you can control it now, but we can’t risk anything.

DON’T trust anyone who suddenly acts nice to you! Especially girls! They’re probably after our family’s secrets (or worse, trying to seduce you!). If anyone suspicious approaches you, use the emergency teleportation stone I left in your second spatial ring. No, wait - the third one. I think. Just check all of them to be sure.

If you feel even slightly unwell, go to your father IMMEDIATELY. I know he looks scary with that permanent frown, but he loves you very much. He just doesn’t know how to show it (probably because his own father was a stone-faced tyrant too). Oh, and don’t let him teach you any time magic yet - you’re still too young, and it might conflict with your spatial abilities. If you really have to learn any magic, learn my space magic first. I have left some scrolls that I made when I was a kid, they should still be useful.

I’ve also prepared seventeen different antidotes in case someone tries to poison you. They’re in the small purple pouch - or was it the blue one? The colors might have faded by now... Just drink them all if you suspect anything! Better safe than sorry!

Stay away from Astera’s daughter - that girl has her mother’s cunning. And don’t let Adelaide talk you into any business ventures. I know she seems mature for her age, but she’s still a merchant’s daughter. And absolutely NO DUNGEON EXPLORING! I don’t care if everyone else is doing it. If you want to see monsters, I left you detailed drawings in the seventh spatial ring.

Make sure to eat properly! I’ve arranged for the kitchen to prepare your meals according to the 103-page dietary guide I left them. If anything tastes even slightly off, use the poison detection papers I put in your fourth spatial ring. Or was it the fifth? Check both just to be sure.

And please, PLEASE don’t try to be brave. I know you want to prove yourself, but your health comes first. If you feel tired, rest. If you feel scared, run. If you feel overwhelmed, hide. There’s no shame in any of it. Your mother once flattened three noble houses because someone said my baby looked pale - so clearly, running isn’t always the answer either... Maybe just use your best judgment?

I have to go now. Remember that Mama loves you more than anything in this world or any other. Stay safe, stay healthy, and FOR HEAVEN’S SAKE, KEEP YOUR BLINDFOLD ON!

With endless love and worry,

Your Mother

P.S. I left emergency backup blindfolds in every spatial ring. USE THEM!

P.P.S. Did I mention to take your medicine?

P.P.P.S. Don’t talk to strangers!

P.P.P.P.S. Actually, just don’t talk to anyone. It’s safer that way.

…

Ambrose sat at his desk, staring in disbelief at the items before him: his mother’s heartfelt letter and ten identical spatial rings, all discovered within his original spatial ring. He had already heard from Adelaide about what had happened between his mother and the ten great houses. He was quite surprised, he had always felt that his parents were strong but he hadn’t expected his mother to be THAT strong, to even be able to fight against the ten heads, including his dad. But what was the deal with this letter and space rings?

His fingers traced the edge of the letter as his analytical mind wrestled with an apparent impossibility. In all the cultivation novels he’d devoured during his bedridden years, one rule remained consistent: spatial treasures couldn’t be stored within other spatial treasures. Yet here were ten spatial rings that had been hidden inside another. And there was another peculiarity – how had his mother managed to leave these items when she’d already departed for the spirit world when he was still in the dungeon? Unless...

Without completing the thought, he activated his Mind’s Eye ability, first examining the ten new rings. The status screen materialized before him, identical for each ring:

[Name: My Precious Son’s Spatial Ring (#3)]

[Rank: S]

[Type: Storage Artifact]

[Space: 1000 cubic meters]

[Owner: Ambrose Rothschild]

[Description: A spatial ring lovingly crafted by Victoria Rothschild for her beloved son. Every aspect of its construction reflects a mother’s meticulous care, from the multiple backup compartments to the tripled security measures. The interior space has been carefully sectioned and labeled for different types of medicine, emergency supplies, and daily necessities. Multiple fail-safes ensure items remain perfectly preserved, while inscription work around the band reads "Stay safe, my little star" in ancient script. Despite its powerful capabilities, the ring’s primary purpose is clearly to protect and provide for its young owner.]

[Properties:

- Instant access to stored items through mental command

- Perfect item preservation in stasis

- Triple-layered security against unauthorized access

- 17 organized compartments with maternal labeling

- Automatic item sorting by urgency

- No weight limit within volume constraints

- Cannot store living beings

- Emergency alert system linked to creator]

[Condition: Pristine]

[Restrictions: Bloodline-locked to Ambrose Rothschild]

After carefully analyzing each parameter, Ambrose turned his attention to his original ring – the one he’d received before starting at the academy. The status screen that appeared made the others seem almost mundane by comparison:

[Name: Mother’s All-Seeing Eye (#1)]

[Rank: SSS]

[Type: Monitoring Artifact]

[Owner: Ambrose Rothschild]

[Bound to: Victoria Rothschild]

[Description: A masterwork monitoring ring created by Victoria Rothschild through combining space, time, and observation magics. Every molecule of its construction radiates maternal anxiety refined into pure magical energy. The ring maintains constant surveillance of its wearer’s complete biological status with accuracy that borders on violating the laws of physics. Updates are transmitted across any distance through spatial tunneling at intervals so rapid they approach true simultaneity. The amount of mana required for its operation would bankrupt a small nation, yet Victoria considers this "basic parenting equipment."]

[Monitoring Parameters:

- Real-time spatial coordinates (accurate to quantum level)

- Complete biological status (14,322 distinct metrics)

- Blood flow patterns and composition

- Neural activity and thought patterns

- Emotional state analysis

- Environmental hazard detection

- Threat assessment of all beings within 100 meters

[Condition: Pristine]

[Restrictions: Permanently bound to Ambrose Rothschild]

[Note: Creator considers current monitoring parameters "barely adequate" and plans to add more]

Ambrose: wtf
