Chapter 1880: Not Expensive.



The store was full of weapons, artifacts, and equipment ranging from footwear to armor. They were very powerful, but the more he saw, the more his expression fell.

They were just too expensive for him. He was beginning to feel tempted to steal. The fact that there was no visible store manager made it look deceptively easy to steal. But he didn't do so.

Instead he grumbled, "This is too expensive."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Ragna appeared in the air beside him and asked, "Why don't you steal it?"

He laughed and shook his head. "I am an upright man. I can't do that."

Ragnar apologized, "My bad then. Take it as if I never mentioned it."

He chuckled as he remembered what had happened to the last person that was caught stealing. Her skin, muscles, and organs were all removed, leaving behind a bloody living skeleton.

Then her naked skin was draped over the skeleton like a coat in order to preserve his dignity and stop him from catching a cold. That's what Ragnar said as he displayed the woman in front of everyone.

He can already tell which is worse between losing one's skin and having it draped over them as cloth for their skeleton. He also knows what not to do to avoid having to make that choice.

But he still didn't see anything simple about it, so he shook his head. "It is possible, but it will be very difficult."

Ragna shrugged, "Maybe it is difficult. But only someone who manages to do something like that is worthy of a legendary weapon."

Taylor chuckled. "I guess I am not worthy of a legendary weapon then. I will stick with normal weapons."

Ragna advised, "The stats of weapons might be the same, but that doesn't mean every weapon will perform the same. Pay attention to length, shape, weight, and balance. Only when a weapon suits you will you be able to make full use of it. A poor weapon will affect your execution of skills and hinder you when you fight."

Taylor took his advice seriously. It is especially so since he has only one arm and can't balance himself as well as others. He needs to take special care in choosing his weapon.

But the more he read, the more daunting he realized the task of finding a suitable weapon. Not only are there differences in physical features, there are also differences in durability. It meant some weapons were fragile and more likely to break than others.

Since he could only afford normal weapons, there was no difference in their abilities. In fact, they didn't have any abilities. There was nothing special about normal weapons. They just had more stat boosts than others.

He eventually chose a level 10 sword. It would add 9 points to his strength, which is almost double his original strength. So the sword raised his strength to 14 and increased his output from 25.5 to 71.4. It is a direct tripling of his strength.

It cost him 10,000 training points to buy. He wanted to get a level 11, but it cost 13,000 training points. It was the same case in every other type of weapon and artifact sold. There was a drastic change from level 10 to level 11.

Weapons generally became more durable and cost far more for each incremental increase in their attribute boost. So he had to settle for a level 10 sword if he intends to outfit himself with armor and footwear. He just doesn't have the training points for something more expensive.
