Versatile: Alternate World

Before I went to gather materials, I checked the Versatile Weapon's status. And thankfully, it seems the digestion process has finally been finished. The timer beside it is gone and the weapon itself can now be equipped again.

I swapped out the Fodder Magic Sword out and reequip the Versatile Weapon. When I held the weapon into my hand, I can feel its the same weapon, and yet it feels so different. It was like I handled the same weapon but made it from a different time. Due to the different feel yet familiar feeling on it, I decided to test it out by swinging it around.

SWISH SWISH SWISH!

The slashes it makes are still as sharp as ever and if ever, it seems it has a bit of heavier slash and yet it remains light in the hand. Kinda weird if you ask me. I also realized that the blade has now a different design. Compared to before, the weapon's blade has a darker shade of gray on it which leans closer to black. It wasn't this dark before but now it is now getting closer to the shade of black. Not only that but the words that were engraved on its blade, [GREED AND GLUTTONY] have been changed and it now has [PRIDE] on it. It is now [PRIDE, GREED, GLUTTONY]. Not only that but the handle has now three circles in it, with symbols engraved on it. The first seems to be a shield but it is glowing in purple shade. The shield also has some arrows on it and the surface of the shield has a skull engraved so that means this symbol is the symbol of the [PRIDE] sin.

As for the second symbol, it was a symbol of a coin with a skull engraved on the coin. Perhaps this is the symbol of the [GREED] sin. As for the third and last symbol, it is a skull with food around it, while the skull itself has its mouth overflowing with food. Perhaps it was the [GLUTTONY] sin symbol.

I don't know why the Versatile Weapon already had the engravings of the [GREED] and [GLUTTONY] despite not encountering their respective weapons just yet. And since the [PRIDE] was added, I am now sure that this was the weapon's way of telling what kind of weapon series it has already consumed. But why do the former two sins are already here? Did it already consume the two weapons before that is why it is now engraved into this weapon? Or perhaps the symbol of [GREED] and [GLUTTONY] weapon is the Versatile Weapon itself?

Now, time to check its stats and see any changes in its skills especially since it has eaten a weapon that belongs to the Weapon Series of the Seven Deadly Sins. If the Versatile Weapon can get some major upgrades from the normal weapons, what about a weapon from a weapon series? I had to see for myself the changes.

When I saw the changes, I rub my eyes for a bit and check the weapon's stats once again. I am not dreaming or mistaken, the stats of the Versatile Weapon has grown quite a lot. From the 200+ stat points on all attributes, it is now around 500-600+ stat points. That was a lot and when I mean a lot, that is not just a weapon meant to be wielded by a level 105 player like me. This weapon is on the tier of level 190 or perhaps, even higher. The amount increase is just too much.

Not only that but there are two special skills added too. The first one allows me to know whether the weapon nearby is currently part of the Seven Deadly Sins series. It doesn't have much utility but this will work if I have to know whether some weapon around that looked like a normal weapon was part of the Seven Deadly Sins series.

As for the second skill, you can say that this skill is the same skill that King Goliath used against me. And I never expected it to be too strong and useful that the system seems to have detected its usefulness that it has a limited amount of uses. Getting three minutes of invincibility is not to be scoffed off, and to top it off, it also has the Taunt mechanic and the damage absorbing gimmick. Then, the reflect damage is even strong due to the fact that the damage received will be sent back to the enemy, twice the amount of damage they inflicted to you. No wonder I almost got killed by King Goliath many times, this crap is just too strong. It was a shame that I have to wait two days before I can use the effect again but I guess it was just there to be not used frequently.

Perhaps the Versatile Weapon engraving the names of the sins on the blade might be the reason why it has been converted to the Seven Deadly Sins' weapon series. However, since I know this weapon is not a real weapon from the series, perhaps, there is a downside to it.

Now the part that concerns me is the second note that has been unlocked. I never expected the conditions for it to unlock its info is for the Versatile Weapon to devour a weapon from the Seven Deadly Sins series. Not only does it mention the change of the weapon itself, but the beast inside sleeping is now partially awake. Is the beast that has been sleeping inside the weapon perhaps the Black dragon that devours the weapons? Is it the sleeping beast that is mentioned?

I don't know. As more questions has been popping up now that I have no means to answer at all.
