That was a lot of text but I also realized that there are lots of new things this weapon of mine got. Namely, the two skills that are marked as "Exclusive Skills". I am sure I haven\'t encountered any weapons of the Seven Deadly Sins aside from the Weapons of Pride. However, for some unknown reason, it already got the Greed and Gluttony exclusive skills. Although incomplete, it is still the exclusive skills of the two weapons of the seven deadly sins weapon series.
Then there is the note that partially explained the changes though it doesn\'t tackle that much, I have already learned a bit of why the Versatile Weapon has gained quite a lot from it. It seems that due to the devouring of the Pendragon\'s flesh and the Pendragon\'s blood, it managed to unseal some of its sealed features that I have not seen before.
But the biggest thing that made me feel like I am dreaming is the increase in the stats. The stats are all now in 1000 which means with the stats of the weapon alone, I am now comparable to a level 350 player with full gear of Unique Tiered items.
There is only one thing that made this very fantastic. I don\'t need to rely on Guts when fighting against the enemies. Also, even with that, I can further increase these stats by using the ability that seems to be connected to the Pendragon\'s Blood, the [Blood Weapon]. There is a huge risk of dying since it consumes 99% of my HP, it also increases my fighting chance by doubling the stats of the Versatile Weapon, increasing the stats even further.
"You understand now, Master? This weapon of yours is something that only exists in the realm of the gods. It wasn\'t supposed to be in the hands of the humans but perhaps due to how lucky you are, I guess, they have blessed you on this. I wonder if people know about this weapon, what will they do just to obtain it?" Atlas rubbed his chin.
"It\'s a dangerous weapon yes, and I know that I am clearly unqualified to wield the weapon but I am not going to give this thing to anyone. This is my weapon and no one else will be able to wield it."
"Ha... I am so jealous of your weapon Master. Perhaps if I have that weapon before I fell to the darkness, I might have been victorious and become a hero well known by everyone," Atlas sighed.
"There is no need to be jealous. You should be proud that you are strong enough that you don\'t need to rely on a weapon like this to fight the enemies you have defeated before. You should be more proud of that."
"Hahaha, no worries Master. It\'s not like I have any uses for that. Wielding a weapon that contains the powers of the Seven Deadly Sins is a huge responsibility and burden and yet you are doing fine. You don\'t even succumb to the power of the Seven Deadly Sins like most users of them do. That alone is something worthy of attention. And being able to serve the person that is wielding a weapon that the gods forged, is an honor to do so. And I am thankful that you did accept my pathetic excuse of myself when I surrendered to you that time in the dungeon."
I was happy that Atlas acknowledged me as a worthy master. But the words he said just made me a bit worried. What will happen to me once I managed to gather the Seven Deadly Sins Weapon Series? Will I succumb to the darkness? Or will I become something else? The future is uncertain, but I have to do this. There is no other choice. The only way to go is forward.
