Chapter 880: Strongest Equipment Spirits (1/2)

”Contained in its hilt is a Law in its purest form. Do you know what that means?” the man with the crown asked with a tone that implied that there was more to it than initially thought.

”Not really,” Krune shrugged as he replied. ”Even if it was something amazing, it's not mine. In short, I don't really care.”

Well, that was just how he was. Throughout his journey, he had come across numerous treasures at the peak of the realm he was in. However, if he said he would go back on his word for something like that, then he would be lying.

Krune wasn't someone like that. That's why even if the Law in the hilt was something amazing and was a peerless treasure even sought by beings at the peak, he couldn't care less. It wasn't his, so he didn't even have an ounce of greed towards it.

Maybe if it was free game, then Krune might have snatched it before others could have. Well, that was the only time he would do something like that.

Besides, his Spiritual Incarnation consisted of all the laws in existence in the God Realm. So, the Law in the hilt would most probably be in him as well. As long as he comprehended it later, he would eventually obtain the same effect.

Seeing Krune's lackadaisical expression, the man with the crown broke into a fit of laughter before saying, ”You're an interesting lad. I  don't have an ounce of desire towards it if that's what you're thinking.”

”Then, what is it exactly?” Krune frowned as he asked, thinking that the man with the crown was somewhat annoying

”Do you know that a Law is the essence of a concept that exists? Also, did you know it can fade between the state of ethereal and corporeal?” the man with the crown asked. He then noticed Krune's confusion soon after, shaking his head as he continued to explain, ”Suppose you consider the Law of Fire. In its empirical form, it looks like a reddish-orange ribbon. You won't feel anything when you touch it. After all, you can't physically interact with a law when it's in such a state. But, when it activates, it manifests itself into a celestial body…”

”…the sun,” Krune finished the man's sentence. His eyes widened in surprise as he felt that his horizons were broadened.

”So you know of the sun, huh?” The man with the crown nodded as he asked, ”I'm surprised you know of something that doesn't exist in the Zamuria Continent. Are you from a different continent, perhaps?”

One must remember that the God Realm didn't have a sun, only...the exit.

”I'm from…somewhere far away.” Krune made sure to look as natural as possible before asking, ”How did the sun you saw look like?”

”It's a massive ball of fire. Then again, the one I saw wasn't a real sun. It was made up of the laws of fire, gravity, light, earth, and so on.” The man with the crown then smiled as he said, ”So, what I'm trying to say is that the Law in that hilt is in its empirical form. It's ethereal in nature. Well, there's one good thing about it when it's in such a form.”

His smile deepened as he said, ”After you unleash your Spiritual Incarnation, you can integrate this Law in your body and obtain a massive boost in power and even derive new abilities. It's the best shortcut you can obtain to become strong.”

”Foolish.” Krune shook his head, knowing that it wasn't a wise decision, something even he, with his limited understanding, could guess. ”Without any comprehension of the Law, taking it in your Spiritual Incarnation is tantamount to suicide. It would just end up devouring your Laws and severely cripple you.”

”That's true, but...” the man with the crown smiled as he replied. ”It's not as if you need to take it this instant. You can comprehend it a bit before fusing it into yourself.”

”Hmm...” After a moment of thought, Krune fished out the sword from his storage ring and threw it to the man with the crown, saying, ”See if you can sense it.”

The man with the crown was left aghast as he caught the sword. They had just met. And, until now, he had actually been chasing after Krune. The fact that Krune handed such a priceless item over without any hesitation, not to mention the fact he did so without any pressure, made the man with the crown feel like it was harder to perceive Krune's true character.

He let out a sigh soon after before looking into the sword using his senses, frowning when he was unable to sense anything. All he knew was the fact that there existed a Law in the hilt of the sword. Well, that was all thanks to his Spiritual Incarnation. However, he was unable to sense anything other than that.

The man with the crown looked at Krune and asked, ”Can I try and awaken its equipment spirit?”

”Sure, go ahead,” Krune nodded as he answered the man's question. ”It's the reason why I was given the sword in the first place.”

The man with the crown expressed his gratitude as he covered the sword with his Godly Energy. Krune noticed how his Godly Energy had a unique signature of its own. It was just like Tina's Godly Energy, a form of energy unique to the individual.
