Undying Warlord

It was nice to have someone worry about his well-being.

However, Dilan knew what he was doing.

He had gained a lot from advancing to Tier-1.

That was also why he was able to leave the short meeting feeling unburdened by the worries that had been troubling him

Because Dilan had yet to receive the Serpentine Blade, his next stop was the weapon storage.

The few Silver treasures which he had brought to the weapon storage included not only two more Featherlight backpacks but also another piece of equipment.

But that piece of equipment was something he was, in fact, already wearing!

As he looked at the leather gloves he was wearing appreciatively, a faint smile emerged on his face.

[[Balrog’s leather gloves] <Tierless Silver>

Comfortable brown leather gloves made from the leather of a cursed Balrog. After dispelling the curse, the leather’s quality degraded a lot, leading to its current low Tier and rank.

[+5 Strength]

[Momentary Strengthening] Consumes 5 Units of Mana in exchange for +10 Strength for 10 Seconds! Can be used thrice a day!(3/3)]

The [Balrog’s leather gloves] were the second treasure that he received from the Gate in exchange for 25 Silver Essence crystals.

Just a single glance was enough to ascertain that they were extremely powerful. Until now, he had received only two pieces of equipment that possessed an ability and each of them was extremely great.

The gloves were not on par with the Aeris’ leather boots, but that was quite difficult for any other equipment to achieve, to begin with.

Both were Tierless Silver treasures, which meant that he shouldn’t expect too much.

Considering this, Dilan was sensible enough to not start lamenting about the Silver Essence crystals he used in exchange for the treasures.

In fact, he was overjoyed about his gains!_-.

Other than the Serpentine Blade blueprint, the Balrog’s hide gloves, and some Featherlight backpacks, there was one more item Dilan wanted to pick up.

It was a rather ordinary-looking gray Saber. The saber was around 1 meter in length, with a rather short hilt that could only be grasped with one hand.

If one were to take only a fleeting glance, nobody would be able to tell how razor-sharp the saber was.

And that was especially why Dilan picked it, rather than choosing a different weapon!

[Gray Slayer] <Tierless Silver>

Seemingly ordinary Saber with a deadly sharp blade.

Can cut through the hide of all beings at and below Tier-1 Level 10!

The Gray Slayer didn’t have any additional attributes which were contrary to the Clawed Gloves, the Captain’s Sword, and all the other weapons Dilan wielded.

Nonetheless, he felt rather comfortable with the Saber in his hand. It was quite compatible with him and could cut through the hide of all beings at and below Tier-1 Level 10.

This meant that even Silver monsters with powerful defenses shouldn’t be able to block his sword’s attack if they were within the mentioned threshold.

That would be for the best, which was also why Dilan couldn’t help but smile faintly.

Swinging it around to test its strength and grip made him feel extremely calm and comfortable.

If someone were to see him from outside just now, they would wonder whether Dilan was wielding a saber for the first time in his life, or if he had been raised with a saber right by his side.

His movements were exceptionally smooth, and no wasted movement could be detected.

It was almost as if his body was made of water instead of bones which made him move around gracefully.

This eerie sensation would make numerous people have goosebumps as one could easily detect that Dilan was an expert!

Dilan had yet to understand that the memories, the knowledge and the combat experience he had imprinted in his mind owing to the [True Weapon specialist] ability were the cause for this.

But that was something he would notice the moment he started his first fight!

Right now, Dilan was simply quite satisfied with his choice of equipment.

The number of abilities he could use was also more than enough. Dilan had an Origin ability, four active abilities, and five passive abilities.

Even if he couldn’t use [Berserk Mana] at will, he still had his Occupation’s special trait [Bearer of Pain].

After adding the two equipment abilities, and his powerful title [Beyond the Stars] to the long list of his abilities, it was impossible for him not to be excited and confident in his capabilities.

That was also what led Dilan to the third floor of the supermarket.

He had already relayed every single piece of information he had noticed about the supermarket to the others.

They wouldn’t enter it for the time being, at least not until Dilan gave him their approval.

After all, he was the only one, who was partially immune to the poison within the mana-rich mist!

As the others couldn’t enter it, Dilan put the tightly stoppered bottles of the poison fog slime liquid outside the supermarket entrance so that the others could take it back to the cafeteria.

He knew that his people wouldn’t play around with the liquid that burned through and corroded everything that held the slightest trace of life immediately on contact.

“If they use the poison properly, even hunting ordinary Tier-1 monsters shouldn’t be much of an issue.”

From his experience, ordinary Tier-1 monsters posed him no threat now. They were simply too weak to level up quickly despite the high amount of Essence they required.

After choosing a Common ancient path of advancement while having rather low stats their strength would merely double.

Even then, they hadn’t been opponents of Dilan, and the only issue he had while facing ordinary Tier-1 monsters above level 0 was the fact that his weapons had been too weak to finish them off.

Of course, there were specific monsters that could not be included in his opinion about most ordinary monsters.

But even then, this was only the minority of monsters, those that owed powerful abilities, for example.

Dilan had yet to create a perfect ranking system for monsters, how to figure out whether a beast was truly powerful or not, and what else he had to keep in mind after encountering new monsters.

There were too many uncertain factors about the existence of ordinary, Bronze, and Silver Essence crystals.

Before encountering Slimes, Dilan had been sure that Silver monsters were even more powerful than quite a few ordinary Tier-1 monsters.

However, Slimes were simply weak which was a stark contrast to the high ranking their Essence crystal had!

That was also the reason for him to enter the third floor of the supermarket, where the most powerful Slimes resided.

The air was polluted by poison, and enriched by powerful mana that circled around Dilan as if it wanted to greet him.

No sooner had he stepped on the third floor did he spot dozens of rather large slimes.

Their size was at least, ten times that of the ordinary slimes, and one could rather easily tell that they were not completely harmless.

But even if they released poisonous mist that was potent enough to kill most Tier-1 monsters, Dilan was not fazed.

[[Immunity (Passive)] Tier-0★✭✭

Gains immunity against poisons and infections below Tier-1 Level 10! Immunity includes scratches of zombies, restricted to 30 scratches/bites a day (30/30)]

His passive Immunity was powerful enough to subdue the effects of the poison that entered his body and render it harmless. Of course, poisons that were more powerful than what his ability could negate, would affect him.

However, Dilan’s physique was able to endure a certain amount of poison on its own owing to his Health being 88 times stronger than the average human before the Primordial Ascension!

Ignoring the slight itch he felt all over his body, Dilan walked through the third floor of the huge supermarket.

He could ignore the slimes around him because they were way too slow to attack him, if they would even think of doing that in the first place.

They didn’t attack him the entire time he roamed around the floor. Unfortunately, that was a big mistake on their side because Dilan wouldn’t show any mercy to other existences just because they didn’t attack him actively.

Generating poison was also a means of attack, though it would be a passive attack. Thus, if he wouldn’t nip it in the bud, the poisonous slimes might evolve into existences that would corrode the entire supermarket before infesting the surrounding area, including the hospital.

Of course, that could also be deemed as an excuse but it was a fact.

Even if the fact were to be proven false, Milarn had turned into a world that followed the law of the jungle! The stronger could kill whoever they wanted, even if there was no reason to do so.

Realizing the need to finish off the threat, Dilan kept a calm mind before he approached three of the large slimes that created the most vicious poisonous fog.

Dilan tightly grasped the Gray Slayer and pulled it back before lashing out with a lightning-fast speed.

His momentum was extremely fast and his moves were on point which allowed him to cut through the huge slime’s liquid.

The saber had dug deep into the slime. However, even before it reached the core, Dilan instinctively retracted the weapon.

He had sensed something that bothered him a little bit.

“How frightening! The deeper one cuts, the higher is the liquid’s corrosive effect!”

Dilan could have expected something like that, but he didn’t expect that the corrosive effect would also affect metals.

That had not been the case before which astonished Dilan for a moment.

Fortunately, there was still a different way for him to eliminate his opponents, other than fighting close range.

[Mana Slash]

Without a second of hesitation, Dilan jumped back. Pulling the Gray Slayer sideways, he smiled faintly before using 20 Units of Mana to empower his Occupational ability [Mana Slash]

The moment he activated this ability for the first time, he immediately sensed that 20 Units of mana were drained from his body.

The mana was led toward the Gray Slayer that began to glow just a second later. It was a bright blueish-white light, which shrouded the saber.

It was highly compressed, and it almost looked like the mana was screaming to be released. The Gray Slayer began to vibrate, and a faint smile appeared on Dilan’s face as he sensed the terrifying power behind the ability he had just used.

Retreating a few more steps, Dilan got an idea that caused him to smile even brighter as his eyes shone in pure excitement.

A moment later, he slashed at the three huge slimes he had targeted to kill today!

The moment he brandished Gray Slayer, his mana was released in the form of a crescent slash of compressed energy.

Dilan’s heart thumped wildly as the [Mana Slash] was released, just to cut through the surroundings, piercing through all three huge slimes at the same time.

He had issued a seemingly simple horizontal slash, but it was amplified with [Mana Slash] which used 20 Units of Mana. It had been enough to cut through the slimes’ highly mana-resistant liquid mass and their core.

They had been halved in a neat manner as if their bodies were made of nothing but air before the crescent blade beam kept advancing, piercing out, and through the wall behind.

‘Wow…’

There was no shockwave issued by the slash. However, the impact had been strong enough to push him backward.

He retreated a few more steps before he finally halted, only to see that the slimes’ liquid mass splattered all over the ground.

It reached his feet before a burning smell reached Dilan’s nose.

“Fuck, my boots!!!”
