John was surprised when he finished up the seven carving knives because suddenly they started to change, the layers of Mythril in the blades were changing to an ethereal state that made it look like they were made out of gla.s.s. Also, the handle started to change and it looked like a waterlike substance filled every crack until the handle felt as smooth as the surface of a mirror.But John and Vito were even more surprised when Vito tried to pick up one of the knives and his hand got rejected by something that felt like an electric discharge. But when John took one of the finished knives into his hand it started to change once again. The translucent Mythril and the handle started changing in color so that the knife started to look extremely expensive as if a substantial amount of Gold was used to create this knife.
And when John picked up the second Knife, it changed too but not as substantial as the first one, the color the Mythril and the handle took were of a dark and deep red but you could still see several parts of the knife that haven"t changed in color as if it wasn"t finished yet.
John put away the two knives he picked up and tried the other five, but strangely nothing happened when he picked them up. As John had no idea why these knives were so strange he inspected them.
[Carving Knives of Sin]
Rank -unfinished-
Soulbound
A set of seven carving knives with unimaginable power. They´re not able to show their power as most of the Knives are not in their final form.
John was startled when he read the description and appraised the knives one by one.
[Blank Carving knife of Sin]
Rank -unfinished-
Soulbound
A Masterfully crafted carving knife for all kinds of work. Heart and Soul of a pa.s.sionate craftsmaster went into this workpiece but it cant show its full potential until the pa.s.sionate craftsmaster creates tremendous Sins with his crafted Items. This is one knife out of a set of seven.
When John read the description of the Knives that haven"t changed he was dumbfounded by the mentioning of a Sin, he knew that only a Sin of his that changed the order of the world significantly was able to unlock one of these knives. Now that John knew about the Blank variant of these knives he nearly didn"t dare to look at the knives that changed, but he still started with the red one.
[Carving Knife of W****]
Rank Rare -suppressed-
A Masterfully crafted carving knife for all kinds of work. Heart and Soul of a pa.s.sionate craftsmaster went into this workpiece and it is nearly at the peak of craftsmans.h.i.+p as the creator of this Item has unlocked nearly all of its hidden powers. This Carving Knife is especially good for creating and decorating Weapons or other items of war.
John was surprised when he read that he nearly unlocked this knife but he couldn"t guess what his sin was or what he had to do to unlock this knife. But now John was even more anxious as the last knife he had to inspect, the one that completely changed to a golden color must represent a full completely unlocked knife. He appraised it with eyes closed only to slowly peek through his eyelids to read the description.
[Carving Knife of Greed]
Rank Unique -suppressed-
A Masterfully crafted carving knife for all kinds of work. Heart and Soul of a pa.s.sionate craftsmaster went into this workpiece. A grievous Sin unlocked the full potential of this knife but it is still not on peak performance as the sister-knives have been unlocked by the creator. This knife is especially good for working with rare metals. As the Sin of Greed gives this knife power it absorbs every piece of rare material that is shaved off by this knife.
[Bestows weak special abilities on Items that were crafted with this knife.]
When John read the final description he was once again dumbfounded by it but before he could calm himself down he got a system announcement.
[Hidden Quest] "Last descend" unlocked
[Progress 1/7]
John felt a dark premonition that he would once again get hit in the face by Eva if she finds out about any of this. He quickly put the knives away and asked Vito to keep quiet about them. But John was surprised that he found Vito rolling on the floor laughing while holding his stomach.
"Now, I know why Eva is so stressed out and is always observing you...Every time she is away you do or create something that is completely outrageous!" Vito said in between laughing and gasping for air but still agreed to keep this matter a secret.
After Vito calmed down of them logged off as they had many things to take in...
Somewhere else in a dark room a greyhaired man was watching how John and Vito logged off, only a row of teeth forming a smile shone through the darkness. The man started laughing and said: "...perfect.."
Sc.r.a.ppy has traveled very far in the last days as his traveling speed increased immensely after he got his mount, Junky. He went through deserts, plains and swamp, he especially like the swamp as he found a strange stone building that looked like four stairs forming a square. He went up and found an entrance to a stairwell to go down into the building. He went inside and saw Rooms filled with sc.r.a.p of all kinds surrounding a strange Stone that was strangely dyed in a reddish-brown tone. He even found a pointy piece of sc.r.a.p laying on the stone. Sc.r.a.ppy and his minions were happily collecting the piles of sc.r.a.p when a figure entered the room. The figure was lean and his whole body was hung with pieces of sc.r.a.p while a metal mask was on his head decorated with colorful feathers.
But Sc.r.a.ppy couldn"t believe his eyes when he saw another eye-catching feature of this figure as he instinctively started running towards it...
