In truth, when a Gaia Awakener dies, there's a risk that any Gaia-linked item they possessed will be affected by a phenomenon known as Resonant Collapse.
This condition can destabilize the energy signature that binds the items to their user. In the case of a Relic, it might release the bound spirit within, or in more extreme cases, completely shatter them. Even storage rings aren't exempt. Its contents can be forcibly ejected, scattered, or destroyed during the collapse.
Still, in certain conditions, a storage ring can survive intact, with its contents safely preserved inside.
And this time, Tave got lucky.
The demon's storage ring was still functional.
He activated it cautiously, letting the internal space unfold before him. Since he had no prior connection to the ring, he couldn't mentally sense or categorize the contents. So, he did it the manual way, pulling each item out, one by one.
