Mana Material

## Information

A power that is created by the world, it is a substance that is invisible to the eyes but exists everywhere. Treasure Hunters gain transcendal power by absorbing high concentration of Mana Material that fill the air in Treasure Shrines.

## Effect on Hunters

Mana Material is unconsciouly absorbed by Hunters, the better the rate of conversion they have in their body the more they can absorb. When a Hunter absorb Mana Material it will convert into the Hunters strength.

However, they will feel dizzy and bad if they aren't accustomed to go to a place where Mana Material had accumulate too much because the body can't withstand the absorption rate. A Contrario, if a Hunter have a low absorption rate, he will fill less bad and dizzy than a Hunter with a high absorption rate.

### Physical Enhancement

Mana Material will enhance the physical strengh of the Hunter. Due to this, Hunter body temperature will get hotter the more strength they excercise.

It can also enhance Hunters skin and muscle quality.

Relics

**Relics** or also known as *Ancient Treasures* are the priceless item that hunters seek within the vaults. Just like the phantom beasts and the vaults themselves, these relics are remnants of past civilization drawn back into reality by the mana material. Among them are many extremely precious, powerful, and useful objects that modern civilization has long since forgotten how to replicate.

The appearance of Relics are random but as long as there is an accumulation of Mana Material, one can appear. Depending on the type of the Treasure Shrines, some Relics are more likely to appear than other.

If it a Shrine imitates building from an Technologic Advance Civilization, the relics from that period of time are likely to appear.

『Relics from outside』 refers to a Relic appearing in a Shrine that doesn’t correspond to its features. It is rare but not impossible.

Relics were powerful items, but they demanded careful operation. The stronger the Relic, the more training it required to draw out even an ounce of its power.it wasn't like Relics came with on-and-off switches or instruction manuals. This wasn't a problem that talent could solve.

user can combine the effect of relics to improve some ability, for example treasure chest (organism) which can move, combine with black fixed saddle (to make ensure the stability so you can ride that treasure chest just like horse, it would be perfect with perfect vacation to maintain comfort.

even though Relic is strong, Relic still can be destroy if the mana and control are overload.

Nine-Tailed Shadow Fox

**Nine-Tailed Shadow Fox** (九尾の影狐, *Tsudzurao no kage kitsune*) is one largest secret organization in the world. No country has succeeded to catch their tail.

## Background

*“Fox Organization exists to destroy the country”*

### Origin

The treasure vault, [Lost Inn], which triggered the launch of "Nine-Tailed Shadow Fox". It's a descendant of a god who lives there.

　*Once upon a time, the founder of "Nine-Tailed Shadow Fox" encountered the treasure hall and was bestowed with a fox mask by the gods who lived there.The organization has a rule that anyone who comes across a treasure hall and obtains a mask is accepted as a person recognized by the gods. The fox god belief is one of the pillars of the organization. But at the same time, it's just a just cause. To be accepted as a person recognized by the gods means that the organization appoints a strong person who encounters the [Wandering Inn] and is able to obtain the mask, which is the drop of the illusion through a fateful process, as the top executive.*

In other words, getting a mask only has the meaning of a trial to attract a strong person. The special status given to priests is not for such a deep reason. "Nine-Tailed Shadow Fox" is the development of an intelligence agency. It's obvious, but there is no cooperative relationship between the illusion of the [Lost Inn] and the organization. It is said that the organization has fallen into crisis several times in its long history,

### Command

The Fox has 9 executives who held the top seats in the organization, and each of them has their designated territory, for example Sorao has full command in Cleat and Zebrudia. Every Executive is not permitted to come for another executive's territory without permission.

The Lower Tail representatives have zero knowledge about the Higher Tail's true identities. This makes their enemies have a hard time to get information about them. And also, it only makes difficult to distinguish who are the true leader of the organization. The Fox has eyes in every places, and smart at hiding, that’s make 'Country Informant' or even 'Underworld Organization' don’t know much about this organization.

## Status

After Krai Andrey manipulated the organization, the Foxes were amidst of 'civil war' between executives. Only a few survivors had successfully escaped the constant war under their radar out of fear.

Not only that, the priestesses were destabilized and unable to reorganize. This led for Sora Zoro got fired from her job as a Miko.
