Having jogged his memories about the different tiered beasts, now knowing that the weapon he was about to look at was the highest tier that existed, Gary was quite excited for just what it could do. [Lycantide Warhammer] Explore more stories at freewebnovel [Demon Tier weapon] [Shifting Metal] [This weapon can be shrunk in size into a small earring at will. The user may revert its form back to its normal size at will.] This was the first effect that Gary saw, and he was thankful for it. It wasn’t medieval times where people could just willingly carry weapons through the streets without drawing attention. He was already finding it hard to stop people staring at him. So at least it had this effect, which was convenient, and it was already a big plus compared to the other items that were there, but he knew it wouldn’t be the only bonus it had. [Rending Slam] [A burst of energy explodes from the weapon on impact, damaging not just the target but the area around the target as well.] ’I see, so a weapon that can be used to fight against multiple people. It’s like what is it called, AOE damage, where it hurts more than just one person?’ ’I could probably use this with Howling Force to get everyone to come attack me and then slam it down into the ground.’ Now, though, it was time to have a look at effects that were beyond what Gary had seen weapons even capable of. [Hunter’s Mark] [Those directly hit with the warhammer will receive a blue wolf mark on their body. Hits on the mark will deal critical damage. Once the mark has been hit, or another part of the target’s body has been hit, the mark will disappear.] [If the mark is hit with the Warhammer again, the effect of the marking will double. There is no limit to how many marks can be added.] ’There’s no limit to the amount of marks as long as I keep hitting the same place? If I had a weapon like this, and I just kept attacking Harvor’s arm or chest, it would have broken everything he had.’ ’And although I don’t plan to go after Chen or anything like that, but against someone like him who has that large shell, it would be perfect.’ ’I think based on the description as well, it creates a type of weak point. So even if it’s not me, but others hit the same marking from the hammer, then it would deal more damage, but the marking would go away.’ The more Gary thought about it, the more he thought about how much a weapon like this could help him. With his great strength, especially in his Shadow Ash Lycan form, and large size, the hammer alone would deal devastating damage. He was already thinking about combining it with the smoke skill he had and attacking his opponent by surprise, hitting the same spot over and over again. Just with this alone, he was realizing it was more valuable than some of the quest rewards he got or the rewards he got from eating strong Altered. That wasn’t the end of the effects from the weapon, though; there was one last one which stood out. [Howling Eclipse (Alpha only)] [The current skill can only be used by the Alpha of a pack.] [A powerful skill that can only be used once a day. It harnesses the full power of the pack and user.] [When this skill is activated, all Pack members that are close to the Alpha will have their energy and power drained. The energy will be added to the weapon and power the user.] [The power of the skill is temporary.] ’A skill that can only be used by an Alpha, it was like this weapon was made for me… I already knew it as well, though. These weapons were made for Werewolves, that’s as clear as day. It makes me wonder how the Dark Guild got these items in the first place.’ None of that really mattered, though, because Gary had already made his choice. "I’ll take the Warhammer. It looks like you have provided me with a great gift," Gary said, reaching out his hand. There was a large smile on Marcus’s face as he handed it over with both hands. Gary firmly gripped the handle and could feel it had quite a bit of weight to it. With his strength, it was perfect, but if he had something like this even when he was a werewolf and starting out, he wasn’t so sure he could use it to its full potential. "You picked the warhammer of all things, but the other ones had such cool names!" Park moaned. "If it was me, I would have picked the daggers; they were so cool!" "But it’s not up to you, is it?" Marie replied. With it being handed to Gary, Gary almost wanted to test it immediately, including the shifting metal, but he didn’t want to show off what it could do here in front of everyone. "I hope you truly enjoy our gift. With that, I think it’s best if we go. We would like to remain neutral in many of these matters, and being here too long might give a different message," Marcus said. Kai and Gary, once again, thanked Marcus as they watched him leave the venue. As they left the building, Marcus was walking down with the two others by his side, with the weapons wrapped up carefully. "Out of all three, he chose the most precious. If he had selected one of the others, it might have been quite the detriment to him and his group. He has managed to give them a fighting chance," Marcus muttered to himself. "Would you like us to still pass the remaining two items to the Lupus gang, sir?" one of the Dark Guild members stated. "Yes, we will stick to the plan. It’s important for us to play both sides in this upcoming war and see how things will play out." "Out of all of them, he chose the warhammer… very interesting." ***** 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦 For updates on MWS and future works, please remember to follow me on my social media below.
