[Ruins of Archades Imperial Palace: West Corridor – 1F]

That very night time, the beforehand anonymous ruins skilled yet one more upheaval.

A small, masked cloaked determine dashed by way of the hall stuffed with meat and maggots with a lance-shaped flame in hand, slaughtering numerous spiders in its path.

PSHAAW! PSHAAW! PSHAAW! PSHAAW! PSHAAW!!

-614200! -614200! -595300 -614200! -614200!

The spiders weren’t given an opportunity to scream, nor did they’ve the prospect to really feel ache or worry.

As a result of, the cloaked determine solely wanted one strike to kill every spider. With each swing, something that touched the flame lance was immediately disintegrated into ash.

The lance had initially from the Fireplace Lance spell contained inside the Superior Lunar Wand. Extra exactly, from the Demise Mage’s Soul Essence that was contained in the Superior Lunar Wand.

With Extremity of Major Components (+100%), Overspell (+57%), 10 Ignis rings (+400%), Superior Earring of Knowledge (+20%), and 400+ INT, this spell can undoubtedly trigger great injury to enemies.

Nevertheless, the cloaked determine used the spell not as a projectile, however as a melee weapon, which additionally brought on 125 STR to take impact.

To not point out one of many results of the Orc Hero’s Soul Essence contained in the Superior Saintess Necklace, which supplied a further 100% improve in melee injury. After which, the 50 LUK additionally provides an honest crucial fee.

It was merely a killing machine.

“That is superb, she’s extra overpowered than I anticipated.” (distorted voice)

Not far-off, an invisible determine stood within the path stuffed with spider corpses.

Most of them had some lacking physique elements, as these elements had turned to mud. It may very well be seen that the cloaked determine had nice management over with the ability to destroy solely the enemy’s important elements, leaving the remainder intact.

And the cloaked determine was in fact, Hecate’s newly created mana clone.

Hecate, who drank a bottle of Improved Invisibility Potion, silently managed the clone together with her thoughts whereas remaining invisible, secure from the monsters’ consideration.

Spoiler Merchandise Title: Improved Invisibility Potion Kind: Consumable Rarity: Sturdiness: 15 Crafter: Grim Impact: Makes the consumer invisible for quarter-hour.

Crafter’s Potion Mastery elevated the period by 6 minutes.

Crafter’s Brewing Mastery elevated the period by 6 minutes.

This bottle was one of many objects that Hecate purchased from Nerkia Metropolis’s Public sale Corridor.

Surprisingly sufficient, throughout her absence, Grim made a breakthrough together with his alchemy expertise. Though there have been nonetheless flaws, a minimum of the potion not restricted the consumer from casting spells, which was nice information for Hecate.

And it appears her reference to the clone does not contain any mana in any respect. So, by utilizing the clone as a proxy, Hecate may principally solid any spell she wished. The remaining tiny flaws within the potion turned nothing to Hecate.

Hecate silently determined that when she returned to Brynhild Fort, she would purchase these potions in bulk.

“However it appears, there isn’t a want to make use of Overspell in any respect.” (distorted voice)

Though the Overspell ability will increase spell energy by 57%, it additionally causes MP consumption to extend by 114%.

Aside from that, the Superior Earring of Knowledge which offers a further 20% enhance additionally has the drawback of accelerating MP consumption by one other 50%.

This causes the clone’s MP maintenance to extend drastically. To not point out that sustaining the fireplace lance additionally requires MP, as may be seen from the clone’s HP bar which decreases quickly each minute.

At present, this was the second time Hecate has recast the clone, because the earlier clone solely lasted round 10 minutes earlier than disappeared.

After this, it will be the third.

And for every time she casts the clone, Hecate needed to waste numerous Condensed Hello-Ether bottles, as her MP regeneration could not sustain with the price, even with Coronary heart of Mana activated.

It was a congratulatory message for somebody she knew for efficiently upgrading tools to +10

“What? Hecate-chan did?”

Shuna was fairly stunned, however on the identical time she additionally congratulated Hecate in her coronary heart.

As a guildmate, and likewise a fellow disciple of Dalmagna, she was fairly proud with Hecate’s success as if it had been her personal. However on the identical time, she additionally felt envy.

“If solely that was my identify there…”

It was her aspiration to be the primary Blacksmith to efficiently upgrading an tools to +10. However it appears, she had been overtaken by her junior disciple.

As she knew, the improve success fee would begin to lower from +5 and above. And a failed improve will inherently destroy the tools, until the Reinforcing Stone used is from the Money Store. However even then, there was no assure that the improve would achieve success.

This was why tools with an improve degree of +5 and above was costly.

The extra improve degree, the dearer it will likely be.

It was mentioned that the Blacksmith Improve ability would improve the success fee. Besides, nobody within the Rosenweil Kingdom had managed to improve tools to +10, whereas 2 or 3 individuals managed to take action within the Gemmerio Empire.

Hecate was the primary within the Rosenweil Kingdom.

And on the identical time, individuals on the streets additionally speaking about this.

“Wait, is that our Hecate-chan there?” “It appears so… Option to go, Hecate-chan!” “A +10 tools appeared on our Kingdom!” “Lastly, she returned…” “Yeahoo!! Now we shall be free of Rena-sama’s substance X!”

From the preliminary pleasure now become bewilderment.

“Wait, what is going on on?” (Shuna)

Out of the blue, a bunch of +10 improve congratulatory messages popped up and every one was nonetheless addressed at Hecate alone. What does this imply?

If it was only one success, it was comprehensible. Two? nonetheless comprehensible.

However greater than ten? Was Hecate dishonest?

However when she recalled Hecate’s lovely face, that sort of considering was instantly dispelled.

‘No, Hecate-chan is a really type(?) woman, she undoubtedly would not do this. Additionally, though she’s slightly socially awkward, she’s a tough employee and a severe individual.’

That was a biased judgment, primarily based on Hecate’s cute look.

Additionally, it is unattainable to cheat on this recreation, as a result of every thing was monitored by AI 24/7 continuous. Even infamous hackers had been unable to do something to tamper with recreation information and had been caught as an alternative.

However then, one other clarification was wanted.

‘I see… More than likely, it was associated to her quest…’

Shuna nonetheless remembered that Hecate had a singular quest, issued by their Blacksmith mentor, Dalmagna himself. Hecate had certainly requested permission to depart due to this matter earlier than. And when Shuna requested Dalmagna about this, he confirmed.

She did not know what quest Hecate was on, however she was satisfied that the earlier message was associated to that.

And this conviction made her really feel sophisticated.

“I turned grasp’s disciple early on, however why did grasp entrust the hunt to her first?”

Shuna did not know what this sense was, however the skewers did not appear to style good anymore.
