Chapter 42: Hell Gravity

"You'd better not take anything from me," the prince said in response, making Aldric roll his eyes."You've lost and yet you still dare to be arrogant. Aren't you worried about me making you disappear forever?" Aldric replied.

"Don't think I'm afraid just because you're a prince," he added.

"You know I'm a prince, do you know which kingdom I come from?" The prince apparently asked back.

Of course, Aldric didn't know which kingdom he was from. He also didn't know much about the kingdoms in this game.

So far, he only knew about the Eldorn Region, White Wind City, and Heaven Valley City. He didn't know anything more than that.

"I don't care where you're from," Aldric replied casually.

"Now let's be clear, is the soul of the Absolute Beginning Soul Dragon in that forest? How do I get it?" He asked as he gazed at the forest he had already entered twice, but he wasn't sure that there was anything there because he didn't feel anything or see anything strange.

"Look for it yourself, don't ask me," the prince replied in an annoyed tone.

"So you don't want to help, no problem." Aldric didn't care about the answer.

Whoosh!

He summoned the Core of the World Cube, deactivated the cube and stored it in his Storage Artifact.

He still stood where he was, observing the prince's Storage Artifact again.

There was something else that caught his interest.

It was also paper, but black in color.

When he looked at it, he got a notification from the System.

(You found a Class S Explo Spell, Hell Gravity that has affinity with your Nine Star Wheel of Life, would you like to use it?)

Yes/No!

As it turned out, it was the Explo Spell.

Aldric viewed this as an excellent skill. He was naturally interested.

Yes!

He chose yes.

DING!

DING!

(Notice: All Explo Spells that are not innate require training to master!)

'What the hell!' Aldric was dumbfounded at the new notice.

This was something he only knew because all of his Explo Spells were Innate Spells.

Apparently, things weren't that easy.

After a while of observing the Storage Artifact, he no longer found anything that might be of high value.

It was practically a Storage Artifact without many items as all the items of value were materials to form the Genesis Core.

However, there was still one thing of value. The sword in the prince's hand.

In form it was like an ordinary sword, but its power was clearly evident.

Aldric didn't get any notice of the sword because it was in the prince's hands.

If he had seen it lying around, he would have gotten a notification that he found something.

Of course, he picked up the sword, which was not easy because when he tried to pull it out of the prince's hand, he failed because the prince was holding it very firmly.

"Fool!" The annoyed Aldric pulled the sword forcefully.

Physically stronger in the end, the prince was helpless in front of him.

Instantly, the sword fell into his hand.

DING!

(You get the Tier 11 Sword, the Sky Splitting Sword!)

Finally, Aldric received a notification from the System.

When he learned that it was a Tier 11 Sword, he was only further amazed.

Weapons were not like artifacts in the division of power.

It was divided into tiers because each weapon was made of materials that required the user's strength.

Weapons could not be used with external power such as the World Cube whose energy could be charged with the Monster Core.

Because it required the user's strength, using a weapon with a tier that was too high could suck the user's energy dry. That's why everyone prefers to use weapons according to their strength.

Typically, Tier 1 weapons are used by Junior Magician Stage 1 to 5 while Tier 2 weapons are used by Junior Magician Stage 6 to 10.

A little more power is actually fine, like a 10th Stage Junior Magician using a Tier 3 Weapon. The important thing is that it's not too overwhelming.

However, the sword was at Tier 11. That was too high.

How could the prince use it?

If it was Tier 4, it would still be acceptable, but this was Tier 11.

Aldric tried to send his spiritual energy into the sword, then realized something.

To his surprise, using a single slash of this sword to the max with its current power could consume up to 30% of his spiritual energy.

That was a lot but considering the tier of the sword, it was also a little.

The reason it was like that was because Aldric discovered that there was a seal inside the sword.

The seal limited the power of the sword itself, so someone with a weak tier could use it.

If he became stronger, he could reduce the power of that seal by sending more energy.

Of course, the ability to create this seal would definitely require someone of unimaginable strength.

This meant that this prince's background was indeed extremely terrifying.

He was not from an ordinary kingdom.

"Which kingdom are you from?" Aldric who originally didn't care couldn't help but ask.

"Hmm, you seem to have realized something. Are you scared now?" the prince replied.

"Believe it or not, if I die here, my family will know that I died and know the location where I died, even know that you are the killer," he added without telling him the background.

How they knew that wasn't something Aldric could guess, but there was a chance it was true. After all, this was a world with many strange powers.

"If you're not dead, what if I just capture you and lock you up?" Aldric asked.

When he asked about that, the prince's expression soured somewhat for a moment.

"I have many tricks that I haven't used yet. If you let your guard down a little, you're the one who will be harmed," replied the prince.

This indicated that if he were to stay alive, there would be no signal sent to his family.

Only, it might be true that keeping him by his side was also dangerous.

However, why would he need to be afraid. After all, he had two clones and his strength would soon increase drastically.

If the worst really happened, at most he would only lose one clone.
