[Purchased a special weapon.]

Rohan put his hand into the rippling space.

There is nothing to catch. All I can feel is the beating and throbbing reminiscent of a heart.

The voice seeps into consciousness.

[Because they are two, they are one, and they are two in order to be one.]

The heartbeat stops. The condensed power flows through my hand.

Rohan emptied both hands instinctively.

I put my longsword back in its scabbard, its edge bruised from cutting through hard objects.

The pistol borrowed from Zion is placed on the floor.

The energy that has transcended space takes shape.

First, a longsword with a right hand, crossguard and pommel.

[sheen]

◇ Reduced magic power consumption of the Heavenly Holy Sword

◇ Increased power of the Heavenly Saint Sword

◇ When damaged, it can be repaired by consuming points.

◇ Grow when you reach the upper limit by accumulating experience points

Just the right weight.

It fits snugly from the handle as if it were custom-made.

The long sword that was heated up by drinking the hot medicine had a different heat from the blades used until then.

It is the feeling of the blade loving and embracing the flame.

And the automatic pistol that took up his left hand.

[stigma]

◇ Reduced magical power consumption when granting weakness

◇ The bullet inserted inside enters the fire seal state, increasing magical power capacity and hardness.

◇ When damaged, it can be repaired by consuming points.

◇ Grow when you reach the upper limit by accumulating experience points

A simple shape with a silvery sheen. Likewise, the size is just right and fits comfortably in the hand.

One magazine is full.

‘Overlap? Growth…? This is the first time I’ve seen equipment with these options.’

To finish a weapon in Abyss City, you must draw the same weapon 6 times and stack it up to stage 5.

But what about this weapon?

It is unknown because the attack power or additional efficiency is not written in clear numbers, and the description states that growth is due to experience points, not stacking.

Crunch!

Rohan felt regret in his full hands, put the pistol in his mouth and pulled the slide.

‘Oh, I don’t know. I don’t know about complicated things.’

I don’t have time to think about it like this right now.

Anyway, one thing is certain. This is the perfect weapon for me.

That’s enough.

“Oh, brother?”

“Rohan··· That···?”

A look of surprise at the sudden appearance of the weapons.

Still, it may be possible to somehow understand it.

Because there are rare equipment that exist in a compressed form, like Noah’s exclusive weapon, Fimbulvetr.

“I’ll explain after I’m done. Let’s get this done quickly.”

Focus your magic power on a pistol named Brand.

Magic power seeps into the bullets like flowing water, and skills are loaded in an instant.

Rohan pulled the trigger.

bang!

The target is a scorpion with a large body. Bullets are lodged in its thick exoskeleton.

─ Kwiiik!!!

The cry of a monster filled with pain.

You can already see the effect.

[Gives the target a physical attribute weakness.]

The common denominator of Rohan’s group is physics.

As Rohan, who fired the bullet, runs forward, Sion and Clara follow him.

Crunch!

Run and recharge your skills again.

One shot at the Hughes Beetle leader entity with its head stuck in the store shutter.

─ Chwuruk! Chwuruk!

[Gives the target a physical attribute weakness.]

The guy who had been single-mindedly clinging to the sturdy shutter raises his head.

Bullet-riddled leader entities head towards Rohan.

“I’m on the right! Two are on the left!”

Ask Zion and Clara to give you strength in your grasp.

He swung the sword he was holding in his right hand.

[One Sword – Flame Cut]

───Bam! The giant scorpion is split in half horizontally instead of vertically.

The shell, which was reminiscent of a sturdy claw and armor, cracked smoothly.

The monster split open like a bun waiting for a patty!

[+5P]

At the same time, a signal that the monster’s lifeline has been cut off.

“!”

Rohan was surprised by the taste that didn’t even feel like resistance.

Even if weaknesses were added, it would have taken a lot of strength to take these guys down.

It’s as easy as tearing a stiff piece of paper.

This blade, named Gwanghwi, is definitely a famous sword.

“Did you do this with one hand instead of both? That’s great work.”

“As expected, oppa···!”

The girls, returning from dealing with the large beetle, were purely amazed to see the cut section of the scorpion that Rohan had sliced off.

Regardless of the skills Rohan possesses, the traces left behind by the attack are admirable.

“Are you done? You both worked hard.”

Rohan returned the pistol he had placed on the floor to Zion and looked around at the situation.

There is no need to force open the shutters and rescue civilians.

The leader of the Mummy was defeated by Ichinose and Noah.

The situation will stabilize soon as the sheriffs are quickly dealing with the remaining monsters. In fact, there are no visible monsters.

‘Should I just report this to the instructor?’

If a lot of cracks were created in Academy City, the protagonist would be very busy.

A message that you are safe and sound.

That’s enough.

“Rohan.”

“Huh?”

“So what’s that weapon?”

“I, I’m curious too···!”

How should I explain it?

I think I’ll understand somehow, but I don’t want to pile up lies in this relationship.

If we continue like this, the time of no return will come.

“I have a skill that allows you to get things like drinking water. Do you remember that?”

I remember when the two girls were taken to the monolith.

He seems to have understood already and exclaims, “Ah!”

“It’s not just about eating. It’s amazing power.”

“But these weapons require a huge amount of resources. They can’t even be compared to water or food.”

“Brother··· Then what about the gunsmith···?”

“Even if I have a gun, I still need a holster, so I guess I’ll have to go. And get some bullets.”

Clara’s expression brightens when she hears the schedule.

I guess you really wanted to go.

“Should I cut the original leather scabbard and tie it up as I need?”

“Not a bad idea, but wouldn’t it be better to order the scabbard today?”

“If you see a store that you want to ask for favors, do so. I don’t know if I can run a business properly under these circumstances.”

“Oh, wouldn’t it be better for a weapon shop to do well on days like this···?”

“Certainly, Clara has a point.”

It’s time to say goodbye to the sword that has remaining installments.

After roughly handling the sword and slicing through several beetles and scorpions without giving them a weakness, the blade started to chip here and there.

Considering the cost of repairs, it’s probably best to say goodbye at this point.

‘I suffered under a bad master.’

The long sword, which has been roughly swung to this day, has achieved fame by slamming itself into the leader’s body.

Rohan said goodbye to Mugu.

Meanwhile, Zion and Clara look up.

A hazy gaze is directed.

“I wish I could find only the items I purchased.”

“Ah···.”

The fact that the underwear and pajamas that have been paid for are still packaged and in the store.

The girls recalled.

While Rohan and his group are cooperating with the police investigation at the shopping mall that has been cleaned up.

Ichinose and Noah joined the group after talking with the other sheriffs.

“Is everyone okay?”

“Ugh! I’m hungry because I’m working out!”

Anyone could see that the two were safe.

Noah was strangely excited, feeling faintly intoxicated by the heat of battle. He was of a warlike bloodline even among the Suin.

“We’re safe. We reported to the instructor.”

“Well, I’m fine···.”

Ichinose let out a deep breath of relief.

Noah just wags his tail as if he knew it.

“What the hell is this disaster··· I received word that several small cracks have appeared not only in Academy City but also in Sanhwa Country.”

“Tigrova too! But we subdued them quickly! I heard other countries are similar?”

“The signs are ominous.”

Rohan continued his thoughts as he readjusted the scabbard that was forcibly tied to his back.

This is not a situation where we can rest on the miracle of there being no deaths inside the shopping mall.

‘Sudden quests weren’t like this.’

The sudden appearance of dimensional rifts or monoliths was common in the Abyss City.

However, there has never been a case where these things occurred simultaneously without any countermeasures.

‘That was a game-like permission, but is this reality…?’

Could it be related to the main story being ruined?

Anyway, I have a feeling that the future won’t be easy.

“Cadets, the disaster shutter has been released, so you may go and retrieve your items now.”

“Ah! Thank you.”

The sheriff started moving busily, holding the walkie-talkie, saying that this side was more appreciated.

Rohan looked up at the high ceiling of the shopping mall.

“Should I just go out and look for the stuff?”

As I try to take a step, a hand grabs my collar.

The way he was holding it wasn’t like Zion or Clara’s, so I turned my head without realizing it.

“Huh?”

A young girl comes into view.

It’s not a cadet uniform. It’s casual clothing, so I can’t tell if they’re an academy cadet or not.

Zion and Clara froze as they walked to find their luggage.

Ichinose watched Rohan and the girl with bated breath.

Noah only blinked his eyes blankly, showing his composure.

“Over there, over there!”

“Who are you?”

Her hair is short, so if you only look at the back of her head, you might mistake her for a man.

If you look at her from the front, you will see that she is a beautiful girl who is attractive to everyone.

“Thank you for saving me···!”

A loud voice.

Rohan remembered it thanks to you.

“Ah!”

While passing by, quickly taking down monsters.

She was a girl who fought monsters and protected people in front of a vending machine. I vaguely remember her using her fists and feet.

“You fought well, didn’t you? You worked hard.”

“I will do my best···!”

A unique and interesting way of speaking. Even the attitude and body movements are like those seen in a dojo.

“That, and···.”

“And?”

“I will also graduate from high school next year···and aim to enter Orion Academy!”

The girl’s gaze towards Rohan is kind and upright.

The eyes sparkle with a clear goal.

“If you come in, I will be your senior. I will work hard.”

“···Senior! I’ll work hard and definitely get in!”

At the same time, the girl moved her hands, which were trembling as if she had hydrocephalus.

He took out his cell phone and handed it to Rohan.

“That, that, that, that extreme···! Ah, Academy 9, 9-9-guk··· I want to ask you something I’m curious about!”

“Are you asking for a number?”

He nods very slowly, with a bright red face and an attitude as if he has never had this kind of experience before.

Rohan smiled as if he was having fun with the experience after a long time and gave me his number.

The girl bowed as if her head was almost touching the ground, then ran away into the group of girls.

Whoa! Whoa! A uniquely cheerful sound bursts out from the group.

“““···.”””

The women who had been watching the situation closely without going upstairs began to feel various emotions in their seats.
