POV - Umbra

Alright, I finished the sword for Fus, I yell at Akasha who winces.

“Great may I see it before you give it to Fus, we don’t want a repeat of what you put in the ruins?” Akasha replies reminding me of the item I had created for the ruin.

In my mind, I bring up the ability of the item I have created for the ruins.

It was beautiful I spent longer staring at the lovely menu now in front of my vision. I spent longer than I would like to admit with Akasha to get the parameter right, and even with that, I do believe the system did help me, so props on you system.

Though Akasha does see that I am drifting back onto my experience making to cube that she can’t seem to solve. So she interrupts my mind drifting with, “So are you going to show me, or am I going to have to throw the cube out of the Library again.”

No, not again. I mean calm down, I am just bringing it up now, I yell in panic, I can see that a slight smirk appears on her face. Even just remembering what happened sent a shiver down my none existent back. So I quickly bring up the menu before I have to experience tragedy again.

“Hmmm… I do believe that this would be a good weapon for Fus if what you told me about his swordsmanship is true.” Akasha says analyzing the weapon's abilities.

Alright if you say it's good, I’m just going to give it to Fus and see his reaction, if he even has one, like the Dragonkin's face is chiseled from stone, I say very quickly in my excitement. I move my consciousness so fast that I can’t even hear Akasha telling me to wait.

I speak into Fus’s mind in a grand tone, Fus I hereby grant you this weapon. I can tell Fus got the message by the way he looked around. Before I could think about his odd behavior more I summon the sword in front of Fus. Fus looks at the sword oddly for a few moments until he grabs it and gives it a few swings. I can tell that Fus is liking the new weapon due to the fact that he is now swinging around the sword with a smile, I don’t know how I can tell it is a smile but it is one. As if a thought crosses his face freezing it, he bows down in thanks. He also whispers what I think are prayers to some kind of great spirit. Wait do they think I am a great spirit of some kind, well I don’t care I like myself to be praised, so I don’t care if they worship me or something like that.

Before I could talk back to Fus again I hear a yell from somewhere, “Umbra get back here before you do anything stupid.” it sound a lot like Akasha, wait it is Akasha. With that wake-up call, I scramble up with my mind in front of Akasha.

Akasha somehow sensing that I have arrived tells me in a stern tone, “You ignoramus, do you know what your impact could have done, they might revolt against you if they find out that they are only puppets in a book. This would not be a concern for a regular dungeon but your monster act more like real animals than in any other. You better hope that all you did was give Fus the sword and did nothing else stupid? So now tell me what you have done.”

What the hell does ignoramus mean? No, wait that's beside the point, for now, Erm well all I did was give Fus the sword with a simple sentence.

“So what was his reaction,” Akasha asks in the same stern tone as if she is holding something back.

Well, all he did was call me great spirit and bow down to me, I say wanting to get out of the conversation as fast as possible.

“Well that's fine, it could be the worst they are doing is worshiping you as a god which you are for them,” Akasha says listening to what I had to say.

I let out a huge sigh and it seems like some of it passed through my connection to Akasha and she ends up letting out a laugh. “I hate using that stuck-up tone but it seems like it works well,” Akasha says in response to my sigh after her laughter.

So I’m good, I can leave, I say with hope filling my voice.

“Ha… Good joke. No, I know you're going to do something stupid when you get back down there with Fus. So what were you going to do?” Akasha says in my nonexistent face, knowing that I would not leave this on its own and would want to take some control over being worshiped.

My plan is simple, and I don’t believe you have to worry about it, Akasha shoot me a glare as if telling me to try to leave and see what this gets you. Alright fine, I planned to tell them to worship me harder and I might give them more weapons to use, I say defeated.

“What a terrible plan. I am glad I stop you from doing it, and I am also happy for the lizards that they don’t have to deal with you being a dull-witted fool that made them believe that he is a god.” Akasha says getting angry the longer she goes on with the speech.

I need to think of something before she rips my core book that even now she is holding… I got it I will use my ultimate weapon against her, a question. Hey Akasha what rank is higher Ultra Rare or Super Rare, I ask trying to seem as innocent as possible.

Akasha's faces light up and I see that she opens her mouth to prepare for the info dump I am about to receive. “Ultra Rare is higher than Super Rare. The other rarities from lowest to highest is Mundane which is regular everyday items, Lesser which is magic lights and such, Common is just really good weapons, Uncommon is where things get real with enchantments.” She pauses for a moment as she takes in a breath then she continues, “Rare can hold stronger enchantments with a limit of holding two of them, Super rare can hold three enchantments, while Ultra Rare can hold four enchantments and another thing about Ultra Rare is they can also hold a higher rank enchantments.” She closes her mouth a bit to get it wet again she continues, “Epic can hold enchantment of a high level that is incomparable to the lower enchantments, legendary are weapons that have the best cutting power and durability plus a ton of enchantment slots, Mythic has the power to hold divine enchantments.” She stops and looks at me expectantly.

I will be honest some of them went in one ear and came out the other but that does not mean I did not learn anything. Hey, Akasha is there higher ranks, I ask sincerely this time.

“Yes, there are, like growth weapons which are considered higher than Mythic due to the fact they grow with the user strength, Transcendent is when a weapon is in the transition stage just a few steps away from a divine weapon. A divine weapon is a weapon with immense power, though there are still some stages higher like living and Unique which are both self-explanatory.” she finishes with a big breath, it is to be noted though that she explained all of this in her scholarly tone.

Before I could inquire about what Living weapons and unique weapons are, I and Akasha hear someone yell, “This is it…How the hell am I supposed to build a town here!”
