Chapter 41: New Weapon 1

Translator: - - Editor: - -

They moved covertly. At the front, there was a man taking the lead, and his name was Chris. For that assignment, they had done over twenty simulations, but the preparation time had been short.

He had been the first person assigned to this project, but he had only been at the project for a hundred days.

It was a relief for him to know that the group was composed of veteran soldiers. The cost of their physical training had been astronomical.

Chris checked out the forest and lifted his fist. The group got into position easily and stopped. Chris showed two fingers and pointed to his left.

Two members of the group moved and went left. Chris held his breath and started walking. Behind him, two other members followed. Ahead of him, there was a two-tailed lion sleeping soundly. It was the size of an ordinary lion.

Chris was stone-faced. Around the lion, there were small knolls made of blue and red jewels. Their assignment was to retrieve some jewels from that place, but they never heard of the existence of the lion.

Chris looked back, and the others nodded. They needed to retrieve the jewels. It was the first time they saw that lion, but they were told about the monsters they would be encountering.

The monsters were stronger than ordinary beasts, but, in preparation, they had fought against drugged up beasts. Each one of them was prepared to fight a beast and beat it, and now there were five of them in one place. A lion would be no match for them.

Chris’ eyes moved. The two to his left grabbed hold of their swords and slowly approached the lion. The remaining three would draw the lion’s attention while the other two would finish the lion off.

That’s the best way.

Chris ran to the front, and the other two followed him closely. Chris and two others stopped, and the lion opened its eyes when they crossed into its territory. It had two pupils in each eyeball. All four pupils were directed toward Chris, and Chris realized something was seriously wrong.

Its murdering aura was different from that of ordinary drugged up beasts.

He lifted his shield quickly. All three of them lifted their shields as they’d been trained, and the lion pounced.

Craack!

It was strong enough to crush the shields. They had stopped the attack with their shield, but they were pushed back. They had learned about the shields and how to use them before arriving at the Dimensional Battlefield. They’d been trained to block 50 percent of the attack with their shields, but the lion’s attack was much stronger than they’d expected.

Then, two of them went around the lion and stabbed it with their swords. It was as if the lion also had eyes on the back of its skull. It grabbed the two by their wrists with its tails and slammed them on the ground.

Bang!

Their heads were crushed into pieces. Chris had to make a decision. First, they had to stay alive.

"Disperse!"

At the same time they all dispersed, the lion chased one that was farthest away from Chris, and bit the man’s neck.

Meanwhile, Chris went over to the spot where the lion had been sleeping, picked up some blue and red jewels, put them inside his shirt and looked back. The lion was running toward another member.

This battlefield had a low survival rate. Even if he saved his team member, he couldn’t deal with the lion. Chris decided to get all the jewels he could and hide. He thought that would be the best option.

Chris began to run. Behind him, he could hear his team members screaming. He ignored them.

"They are not my real comrades."

He was a hired mercenary. It would have been laughable if he had cared about camaraderie. Chris just ran away. The lion grabbed a cadaver with its teeth and looked around. Chris was no longer in its territory.

The lion sat and took its time eating the bodies.

They went to the dimensional merchants and saw Bebe dozing off. Bebe saw them and welcomed them.

"You came?"

Artlan went over to him and said quickly:

"First, two bottles of potion."

"Potions? They won’t work on you."

"I am not going to use it on myself."

Bebe pushed the plate toward Junhyuk.

"Since you are an expert, you get a 5 percent discount. It’s 950G. Pay it up."

Junhyuk did not say a word and put his hand on the plate. It showed 11,834G. That decreased by 950G, and 10,884G remained.

Junhyuk was glad since he could buy a new weapon with that amount. He looked at Bebe.

"I want to buy a weapon."

"Hm... Since you have over 10,000G, you can afford basic weapons."

"Yes."

Bebe hummed, opened his book and said:

"Some of these weapon types may exist in your world and others may not. Take a look."

"It will still be a basic weapon," Artlan said.

"They are basic weapons, but do you think humans could have made these weapons?"

Artlan did not answer. Junhyuk looked at the weapons. Among them, he found something he had not fathomed as a weapon: a teddy bear.

"What’s with this teddy bear?"

"It’s used for summoning magic. It’s basic and requires upgrades to really use it well."

Junhyuk shook his head and talked about the weapon he was looking for:

"I want to buy dual swords."

Bebe looked at him and gave a big smile:

"It’s not a bad thought, but dual swords don’t exist. You have to buy two basic swords separately."

Junhyuk worried about the price.

"How much does that cost?"

"Each sword is 10,000G."

He could only buy one sword, and his expression turned sullen. Junhyuk asked carefully:

"I heard it was possible to upgrade it as a magic sword. If I did that, would I have to upgrade both swords?"

"Of course!"

"That will cost twice as much!"

Bebe crossed his arms and said:

"That would be bad, huh?!"

Junhyuk had renewed hope, and Bebe smiled and continued:

"I have a conscience. I will give you a 30 percent discount, but I have to charge you full price for one of the swords."

Junhyuk sighed. That would still cost 170 percent of the original price. It was a lot more than what he was expecting.

Bebe smiled:

"But the 30 percent discount only applies toward upgrades. You have to pay the full price for the sword itself."

Junhyuk went back to the book. There were all kinds of weapons, and he picked out a longsword.

"I will take this."

"The price is 10,000G. With your discount, it will be 9,500G."

Junhyuk’s stomach did not feel so well, but he still put his hand on the plate. The number decreased to 1,384G.

Bebe gave him the longsword. He had lost one of his swords during the battle. With that longsword, he had his dual swords.

Junhyuk checked out the long sword.

---

[Bebe’s Basic Longsword]

Attack level multiplied by ten.

Dimensional Merchant Bebe’s Basic Sword: Basic level weapon. It increases its owner’s attack power by ten times. It can be upgraded for more power.

---

Junhyuk swung the longsword lightly. He could handle it very easily, and it was hard to believe it was a longsword.

Junhyuk lowered his sword slowly.

"Could you tell me more about upgrades?"

"It’s cheap to upgrade it for the first time. It’s only 1,000G. After that, 2,000G, 4,000G, 6,000G, 8,000G, 10,000G, and 20,000G upgrades are possible. After the 7th upgrade, no more upgrades are possible."

It cost over 51,000G to fully upgrade one of his swords.

Junhyuk was curious and asked:

"How do I make a magic sword?"

Bebe touched his chin and answered:

"That costs a lot more. Precisely, it costs twice more. You have to choose your property or attribute and start with the first upgrade."

"Then, if I pick an attribute, it’s possible to use some magic?"

"Of course, but it’s effectiveness will be small. You will need at least five upgrades for it to be effective against a hero."

Junhyuk nodded heavily. It was pricey, but he thought having a magic sword would help him.

"So, I need 2000G."

"That’s right, but there’s one more thing. Upgrades don’t get VIP discounts."

He had to pay the full price. His face turned rigid, and Bebe crossed his arms and said:

"So, that’s how it is."

Junhyuk sighed and asked:

"Can I ask you one more question?"

"What is it?"

"I can’t carry this weapon where I come from. Is there a way to hide it?"

He had taken a potion to his world, and that meant he had to take his sword back, but he couldn’t carry it in public.

Bebe shook his head.

"Did you say you came from Earth?"

"Yes."

"If you can’t carry a weapon like this, it must be a nasty place."

Bebe opened his hands and said.

"There are two ways."

Bebe closed the book and opened it again. The two ways were displayed in the book.

"You have to buy a space pouch, but that is very expensive. It has a height, width, and length of ten feet and it costs 10,000G."

Junhyuk shook his head hard. Bebe knew how he would react.

"You can’t afford it now. Then, there is another way. You could engrave the sword to you and summon it."

"Summon it?"

Bebe showed his palm. There was a strange tattoo on top of it.

"Just like this."

Bebe closed his palm and opened it again, and a huge hammer appeared on top of it.

"You don’t have to call for it when you summon?"

"That depends on your will. So, if your will is strong, you don’t have to make a sound, and you don’t have the time to chant during a battle."

Junhyuk agreed. During a battle, there was no time to utter a few words. He could get killed trying to speak.

"This is not so expensive."

"How much?"

"Engraving costs 1,000G. There is no discount."

It was cheaper than he expected, and he thought for a moment.

"Then, I want to engrave it."

Bebe did not speak and instead pushed the plate forward. Junhyuk put his hand on it. He had 384G left. He used to have a lot of money, and it was all gone.

"Where do you want it?"

Junhyuk showed him his right wrist, and Bebe pulled out a box.

"Then, give me your sword."

Bebe pulled out a small bottle from the box while Junhyuk handed him the sword. Bebe poured the bottle’s contents on the longsword, and that engraved the sword.

He engraved Junhyuk’s wrist with the same mark and looked at him.

"It will be easier to summon and return your sword if you name it. Now, think about hiding it."

Junhyuk closed his eyes and thought about making the sword disappear. He felt the mark itch, and his sword vanished. He looked around, and Bebe smiled.

"Think about summoning it. If it’s difficult, say the word."

"Summon!" Junhyuk said.

His longsword appeared on his hand, and he swung it lightly. He looked satisfied.

He could easily handle his new longsword and he could hide it any time he wanted. Artlan spoke up:

"We don’t have the time for this. Let’s go."

They went there to get potions and equipment, so Junhyuk asked Bebe:

"How much does extra armor cost?"

"Basic armor?" Bebe smiled slyly and showed two fingers. "Armor starts at 20,000G."

He was surprised that armor cost more than a sword, but Bebe thought nothing much of it and explained:

"You assemble suits of armor. You must buy each piece to be able to use the entire armor, and I sell the full suit."

It would take a long time to buy extra armor. Junhyuk stopped again and asked Bebe:

"Is it possible to reincarnate once when you become an expert?"

That was the most important question.

"Right. You get one reincarnation."

As Bebe answered, he felt relieved. Artlan called out to him again.

"We should move."

"Yes, I’m going."
