Chapter 246: Weapon testing

“Haaa!”

“Hyaaa!”

After a flash of green light, a large log descended down to the ground It looked like it was sliced apart by so the attack was quite a bit away Next to it, another log was engulfed in flae

“Wayland, these weapons are interesting… letwith a dagger in her hand It was glowing green for the ed color to blue When activating the spell effect this tireen blade of wind one of ice replaced it The previously sliced apart log was cut again but this time, it was also covered by a layer of ice

To the halfling's side, there was a hue two-handed sword that had previously been engulfed in fla color to switch to deep blue frost instead

“Hey, this thing really works… and it’s not that hard to use!”

“If the blockhead can use it, then everyone can use it”

“Hey, I heard that, screw you Senna!”

An angry Orson fired off a blast of ice energy towards the burning target After perfor and he had to catch hi

“Take it easy, you’re a warrior and your MP pool isn’t that high It's better if you don’t use that ical attacks in succession”

The voice of the craftsman that inscribed these weapons with runes ca his four adventurer friends playing around with his siear that was designed for adventurers without mana-related skills

“Hah, leave that idiot be Wayland, he learns better this way”

Senna laughed while he glanced over towards Grisalde and Dalrak While the dwarf didn’t have trouble exchanging the basicbarbarian wo colors fro back to the red one

“Want ain, Grisalde?”

“N-no… I can handle thisher head to the side All of the area It was et used to so weapons were h to show off what the costlier ones were capable of

“Is that so… anyway let e axe from the side that was si After holding it out with one hand so that she could see what he was doing, he started to talk

“It’s siroove here and start injecting ht?”

“Yeah?”

She nodded while looking at theup faintly

“It’s hard to see because it’s daylight but when you’re in the dungeon it will be easier What you want to do is stop letting your et to the elereen There is a second when the color won’t change so make your decision fast and rerove”

“I see…”

Grisalde continued to nod while looking at her oeapon that was changing colors After shi+fting her hand to a more comfortable position the color solidified into a red one

“Each of the weapons comes with elemental variations of the same spell and one basic non-ele with the axe and directed it towards a log in the distance A blade of green energy left the weapon, it was er When it collided with the log it sliced it diagonally before ra into the stone wall behind it

“How about you try it?”

“No proble her reen She was an experienced warrior so it wasn’t hard to reproduce Roland’s ish movements Yet the blade that she created was about half the size and traveled in a wide arc into the sky

“shi+t… Hey, as that green blade so much smaller? Is this axe worse than yours?”

“No, they are exactly the same”

“Pff…”

Fro that overheard the conversation Quickly the giant of a woman turned toward her ne at pipsqueak!”

“Oh, nothing”

Senna laughed which brought a few veins to appear on Grisalde’s forehead Before the two started fighting Roland quickly chimed in with another explanation

“I have a lot ical weapons will always be better in the hands of ence stat boosted the power of every runic spell He also had various other buffs which allowed hiular warrior like Grisalde could not feel s, she could only use it This was the sae denizens in the world, they only had an on and off switch when it came to mana

There weren’t that many people like Roland that had a mana sense, some even died due to mana sickness as the previous owner of this body However, there ays of getting that skill later in life Some advanced classes could unlock it later, there were also things like ical elixirs that could produce it

There were also less virtuous ways of getting them, red-colored crystals that were sometimes sold at the black otten fro their deaths These were quite rare so they didn’t reach the usual black uild that hosted auctions to gain more money

Froet athe mana pool was a clear enhanceh enough tier, ood quick way of bolstering all-around strength

“And that’s about it, the base effect for the axe is the impact rune, it uses the least amount of an to play around with the new toy Just as he had explained it went through a set of spells in order The weapons had one varied elemental spell that could be switched to fit aor ih experience, he had discovered thatrunic weapons with multiple uses At most he could add two different spells before it becae the mana frequency or output at all, only turn it on and off

Thus he decided to try this new syste mana into the systems the selection process would start It was then represented by a faint outside color to make it easier After the spell was selected it would be the active one and the only one that could be activated

‘While you can’t switch the effects fast, it should not be needed’

These weapons were eons In the Albrook dungeon where the monsters were fire-based, ice was the desired weakness Before even entering the dungeon a person could switch to this effect and be prepared for the fla creatures inside

Then when the adventurer decided to go to another dungeon they could switch the spell effect again without having to get a whole neeapon While the runic components were altered even other runesmiths could repair it with the help of their autoe the spell the person needed to hold the weapon in a specific way It would be hard to activate the changing effect mid-battle which was intentional It was still possible to do it during a pause in co as the enees to the runic operating systeh were very sie into the desired effect to make it all work Someone like hih all of them But for people without rune-related skills, this was a sireat but how athered together after testing out the weapons It was clear to them that the weapons orth a lot One of them in particular didn’t have any money

“I sell them around the hest grade too, so that increases the price slightly…”
