Link walked over to take a closer look.
From afar, he had thought the brilliant azure gemstone was spherical. Upon a closer look, Link noticed that there were a few bumps on its surface. There were also no runes carved into it. It simply looked like a polished rock.
Link took out the purple meteorite fragment that had re-solidified and tapped the azure gemstone gently with it. He then scratched the gemstone's surface with one of the meteorite fragments' sharp edges but could not seem to even leave an impression on it.
"It's extremely hard!" Link exclaimed.
The meteorite in his hand was hard enough to leave a scratch on any Level-10 material. It could even slice through metal plates with ease.
Not only was the meteorite fragment unable to leave a mark on the gemstone, but the latter also did not seem to have any evidence of magical tampering on it. This suggested that the gemstone's origin was far from ordinary.
