Chapter 50 [Kotetsu]

Shaman and Elysia looked at the long black box that was on the floor. It was completely black and had a lid that could be lifted up.

"It is as long as a sword. I wonder if I will get an upgrade." Shaman interest was piqued and really wanted to see what was inside.

"It was a legendary crate so it has to be good." Elysia's eyes were shining with excitement as the anticipation was getting too much.

"Alright I am opening it now." Shaman placed her hand on the crate and lifted the lid. Shaman fully opened the lid which revealed a katana with a white handle wrap and a hilt that resembled a long sword. The hilt was fitted with a blue gem and was slightly glowing. The blade was covered in a completely black scabbard.

Shaman's eyes lit up and could not take her eyes off it and Elysia was also in a similar trance state as Shaman.

Shaman without realizing it reached her hand towards the sword and grabbed it out of the box. A system notification could be heard.

[Kotetsu wishes you to be its owner]

Shaman did not think and accepted right away and the blue gem on the sword glowed brightly painting the entire room in a blue light.

Shaman could feel a strange connection in her soul and could feel like the sword was talking with her but was unable to make out what it was. Elysia on the other hand looked around the room as the light from the sword turned the room into a night sky.

[Connection made, Shaman and Kotetsu are now soul bounded]

[congratulations on obtaining your first legendary weapon]

[Kotetsu]

[Rarity: legendary]

[A legendary sword that is notorious for it strength however the sword only gets it strength from the user so it is up to the person that wields it to nurture the sword as it takes the shape of the person's true nature and the closer the user is to their true nature the more powerful the sword is]

[current compatibility: 75% (Subject to change)]

[Due to user Shaman being a lower tier the swords power is significantly reduced]

[Skills: --Locked--]

[Special: --Locked--]

[Compatible with all elements and can shift to suit the element]

The sword stopped glowing and tattooed a katana with a flower behind it, printed itself on the back of Shamans hand and faded away. Shaman was shocked and was frozen still as she read what the system presented to her.

"Rea where did you get this sword." Shaman could not believe she had obtained such an item so it had to be in possession of some high class family and had to guess the system somehow stole it.

[We sto- I mean it was in our possession of many items that we own which also include things that never existed in your world.]

Shaman looked at the message suspiciously but shrugged it off as she wanted to see the blade.

Shaman unsheathed the sword slowly and could be seen that the base started like a normal long sword but then the sword transformed into the katana shape making it a sort of hybrid but Shaman could only assume that it was due to the sword taking the form of her true nature.

The blade was fully revealed which showed a pitch black blade with white edging making it contrast with the white. Shaman got into a stance to feel how it felt in her hand and it felt perfect. She felt like she was one with the blade and was rather an extension of her body rather than just a sword in her hands.

Elysia was watching Shaman and was memorized once again and could not stop staring.

Shaman finally stopped swinging her sword and looked at Elysia who was staring right at her.

"I'm not that good looking." Shaman had a smirk as she put the blade over her shoulder.

Elysia shakes her head and breaks out of her daze and starts to take what Shaman said seriously.

"Well you are the most beautiful person I could have ever met and plus you look really cool with that sword just now." Elysia blushed a little and Shaman let out a laugh.

"No need to be shy, I was just playing but I will say this sword was not what I was expecting." Shaman examined the sword and was paying attention to the ornaments and details on the weapon.

"Who would've thought you would get your hands on a legendary weapon." Elysia pouted as she was a little jealous that Shaman got a legendary weapon and she did not get one.

"I am sure we will get another one but I am not so sure how we will be able to activate a secret quest like that again." Shaman also wanted Elysia to get one but they either had to find one or activate a secret quest like they did in the dungeon.

"I guess we just have to try." Elysia felt a little depressed but nonetheless did not give up hope on getting one herself.

"Sadly though the sword is limited as it seems to correlate to the tier I am and seeing as I am only a tier 3, all the skills and this thing called special is locked for now," Shaman continued to explain what the system told her about the sword.

"So it will grow as you grow, so does that mean you never have to change swords?" Elysia did not know how to feel as the sword was nerfed but it could also grow making it a weapon that never needs to be replaced.

"seems like it and honestly I am glad that I got something like this." Shaman smiled while looking at the black blade and she could feel that same connection again with the blade as if it was responding to her.

'hmm it seems like this sword can communicate but is unable to, maybe if I get a higher tier I will be able to speak with it.' Shaman was unsure what the encrypted feeling was but could only assume that her tier was in the way of her understanding it.

"That is so cool and it said it was soul bound as well, so does that mean you can recall it and make it disappear without the inventory?" Elysia continued to ask questions as she was getting more and more curious of the capabilities the sword had.

Shaman did not answer but remembered the tattoo she saw and thought about storing the sword away. The next moment the tattoo revealed itself and glowed for a brief moment and the sword was gone in an instant.

Shaman then thought of taking it out and the sword materialized in her hand in an instant. It seems to be faster than the inventory and to Shaman it was more convenient to have a blade like this.

Elysia was shocked as her jaw was dropped and the jealousy she felt before grew. This did not go unnoticed and so Shaman did it again Infront of Elysia. This was Shaman's biggest mistake as Elysia pounced on Shaman shaking her by the collar.

"Where is my weapon?" *sob* Elysia cried a little while vigorously shaking Shaman as all she wanted to do was steal the sword but knew she could not since it was soul bound.

"I'll stop now, no need to get riled up Elysia plus who said you cannot use the sword as well but I will warn you the sword must like to be wielded I think." This sparked the fire again in Elysia and the Shaking turned into hugging.

'jeez this girl is such a roller-coaster.' Shaman shook her head as Elysia was having mood swings left and right and all Shaman wanted to do now was sleep.

"Thanks Shaman." Elysia thanked Shaman as she knew she was being annoying but could not help it at all.

"It is okay but I am getting really tired so I want to sleep before we evolve and use all of our rewards." It was well into the night and they were in no hurry to go anywhere so they decided to sleep before they would open the rest of the boxes they obtained.

"Sounds good to me plus I'm starting to feel the fatigue from that troll fight." Elysia yawned as now that Shaman mentioned sleep all she could think about was sleep.

Shaman dismissed her sword and both Shaman and Elysia went to bed.
