Chapter 22 Upgrading Into an Epic-Grade Weapon

(Year 9: As he was in a hurry to break through, Arthur didn’t suppress his demonic nature. As a result, his behavior worsened, and he began making enemies everywhere. As you continued to absorb blood, you obtained a new skill- [Perception).]

(Year 10: Count Magnus’s son heard that Arthur was mentally unstable and needed help, so he tried to kill Arthur again. In the end, you and Arthur ended him. Count Magnus was furious.]

(Year 11: Under Count Magnus’s hot pursuit, you and Arthur began a life of escape.]

(Year 12: Count Magnus found Arthur. Arthur managed to escape with your help but was still heavily injured. Due to that, the opportunity for a breakthrough disappeared.)

(Year 13: Arthur rested for a year. His injuries recovered thanks to his demonic nature, but his strength declined.]

(Year 14: Arthur could no longer sit still and took you to the secret realm. It was said there was a way for him to break through to energy level five. He wanted to use this method and advance so he could defeat Count Magnus.]

[You both encountered two transcendent creatures five levels lower than you in the secret realm. In the end, the creatures killed you and Arthur.]

[Life Simulation completed. Current score: Grade B. You will inherit part of the abilities from the Life Simulation, and you will receive a talent!]

[The grades are SS, S, A, B, C, D.]

(Inheritance 1: A precious item from the Life Simulation.]

[Inheritance 2: The grade and rank you achieved from the Life Simulation.]

[Inheritance 3: A memory fragment from the Life Simulation.]

“Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining part of the ability from the Life Simulation.”

“With [Perception), the host develops perception similar to an eagle, you can clearly see things within a radius of several miles.”

“Please make your choice, esteemed host.”

The simulation this time wasn’t much different from the previous ones.

Even though Lu Yu became an epic weapon, it didn’t make many changes in Arthur’s life. However, he had obtained a new skill. The overall result of this Life Simulation wasn’t bad.

“Option 3.” Lu Yu made his choice.

He wouldn’t have gotten anything beneficial if he had chosen the other two. Under such circumstances, the memory fragments were extremely precious.

Afterward, a whole new memory appeared in Lu Yu’s mind. The new memory included Baron Spencer’s daughter, Carlo. Additionally, there were fragments about Duke Magnus and the Sky Radiance Transcendent Academy.

After recalling the memories, more than half of the night had passed.

At this moment, the sun was about to rise. After completing two simulations, Lu Yu didn’t have many points left.

He used all his remaining points to repair himself. “[Repair)!”

“Ding! (Repair) was successful.”

Lu Yu felt his initially damaged sword body shine when the notification appeared. The worn-out hilt now looked like it was made of epic-grade materials and had an extraordinary texture.

After he was done repairing, Lu Yu checked Arthur’s panel.

[Name: Arthur)

[Age: 17]

[Ability: Energy level two(Beginner)]

[Weapon: Epic-grade Magic Sword]

(Occupation: Transcendent – Trainee knight]

Arthur felt the changes in his longsword and woke up from his meditation.

He looked at Lu Yu and was pleasantly surprised. After one night, Lu Yu had upgraded to the level of an epic-grade weapon. This was truly shocking.

However, thinking of Lu Yu’s past identity as a divine weapon, Arthur was relieved. For an ordinary weapon to become an epic-grade weapon, the chances were slim no matter how many materials were smelted.

It was much easier to restore it to epic-grade as a divine weapon.

Arthur tensed up and asked Lu Yu, “Senior, where are we going next?”

“Head to Cantero City first. Three days later, there will be people from the Sky Radiance Transcendent Academy there to select new students. You need to pass this selection and join the academy.” Lu Yu said as he used the [Dream] skill on Arthur.

Hearing Lu Yu’s voice, Arthur was slightly shocked. The sword spirit had been with him all this time and never left him. Additionally, Lu Yu helped him fight against Baron Spencer’s forces.

Arthur never had time to search for any information, but this senior already knew there would be people from the Sky Radiance Transcendent Academy in Cantero City within three days!

Arthur was amazed.

Within the borders of the Canglan Empire, there were four great transcendent academies renowned throughout the continent; Sky Radiance, Night Owl, Thunder, and Ice Snow. These academies had nurtured many famous holy knights and mages in history!

This was especially so for the Sky Radiance Transcendent Academy, which was still at its peak. Moreover, rumors said there were still living holy knights and mages in the academy.

If this senior spirit could predict the actions of such an academy, then it must have amazing power!

When Arthur heard Lu Yu’s words, he was even more convinced that Lu Yu was once a divine weapon. No other force could have such mysterious power other than the gods and their weapons.

In the legends, some divine weapons could predict the future!

Arthur felt much more at ease.

Although he’d already gotten revenge on Baron Spencer and exterminated his entire family, Arthur wasn’t safe.

After all, Count Magnus’s forces were slowly approaching him in the darkness. If he weren’t careful, he would be devoured by the other party.

Counts represented the power of the fourth or fifth energy level and could easily destroy a city. They were existences beyond the imagination of humans.

Falling out with such a powerful being made Arthur slightly panic. However, he felt at ease when he thought of the weapon beside him that had infinite power and could only be completely controlled by gods. No matter how strong a Count was, he was no match for a

god.

Since Lu Yu pointed out the directions, Arthur didn’t need to worry anymore. He just needed to keep moving forward.

Afterward, Arthur asked Lu Yu respectfully, “Senior, I still don’t know your name. How should I address you?”

“A name?”

“It’s been far too long.” Lu Yu’s voice was filled with confusion as he hadn’t come up with a name yet. He had already claimed to be a divine weapon. So if he had such a simple name, it wouldn’t make sense.

Arthur’s heart skipped a beat when he heard Lu Yu say it was too long ago. As expected, the era in which the divine artifact existed was too ancient. It belonged to a period of history that nobody could comprehend, so much so that he had even forgotten his own name.

“You can call me Chaos. Since I’m now in the form of a demonic sword, you can call me Chaos Demon Sword.”
