"Reiji, you fool..." Karina muttered softly, though a small smile that she couldn't hide appeared at the corner of her lips.
As Karina walked, her gaze unintentionally shifted to the four boxes that were now in her hands.
Curiosity overtook her.
Karina stopped under a large tree by the roadside, carefully opening one of the boxes.
How surprised Karina was when she saw the contents—a pair of red rings that emitted an extraordinary shine.
The Ruby gemstones perched on top of them gleamed like little flames dancing under the sunlight.
"How beautiful..." Karina whispered in awe.
Her fingers gently touched the surface of the ring, feeling the coolness of the metal that perfectly blended with the beauty of the gemstone.
If this item were in Reiji's previous world, a Ruby gemstone like this would be valued between $1,000 and $15,000 per carat.
But in the magical world on Earth, its value far exceeded money.
Gemstones like Ruby were often used as the main ingredient to create magical items, making those items priceless.
In his simple yet meaningful way, Reiji had used the Ruby gemstones to craft four magical items—a pair of rings, a pair of earrings, a bracelet, and a necklace.
Karina continued to open the other boxes.
Her gaze fixed on the beautiful necklace now in her hands.
The chain of the necklace was a bright red, resembling the sunlight at dusk.
The Ruby in the center was shaped like the Uzumaki symbol, a sign that seemed to hold deep meaning.
Karina then saw the bracelet—made of solid yet elegant red iron, with a similar Ruby stone adorning the center.
The bracelet looked like something from a legend, something that a great hero would wear.
And finally, the pair of earrings.
The earrings were also decorated with a Ruby stone shaped like the Uzumaki symbol, paired with gleaming red metal.
Karina could hardly contain her amazement.
"Father and mother will surely love this pair of rings!" Karina said happily, imagining her parents' reactions.
Her gaze returned to the necklace, and a small smile appeared on her face.

In a warm and simple house, in the dining room, four people were sitting around a wooden table, surrounded by simple yet lovingly prepared food.
They were Keito, Kasumi, Karina, and Kushina.
"Father! Mother! Happy wedding anniversary!" Kushina exclaimed cheerfully.
The little girl eagerly pulled out a piece of paper from behind her back. "This is my wedding anniversary gift for you!"
Kasumi, curious, immediately took the paper and opened it.
On the paper was a drawing that, although simple and disproportionate, radiated warmth and affection.
There were two large figures representing Keito and Kasumi, and two small figures, which of course were Kushina and Karina.
The drawing was adorned with bright colors and cute, simple scribbles.
"Wow! It's beautiful! Did you really make this, dear?" Kasumi asked with a wide smile.
Kasumi's eyes sparkled as she looked at the drawing, even though, from an artistic perspective, it was far from perfect.
But to Kasumi, it was a masterpiece, a heartfelt gift from her daughter, Kushina.
"Yes, Mom! I drew everything myself!" Kushina replied proudly, her smile widening as her cheeks flushed.
"Really? Let me take a look." Keito reached for the paper and examined it carefully.
"Wow! It's wonderful, dear! Your mother and I really love it," Keito said with a gentle smile.
"Hehehe..." Kushina blushed but couldn't hide her pride.
