Silver Wolf was full of confidence.
Unexpectedly—
[Congratulations! Enhancent failed! Hacker Dagger destroyed!]
Upon hearing the word "congratulations," Silver Wolf put her hands on her hips and laughed loudly.
"Hahaha! I knew it'd work! Co on, let see what new effects my precious Hacker Dagger got!"
She looked at the enhancent machine—and imdiately froze.
Silver Wolf rubbed her eyes in disbelief.
"This... this is my Hacker Dagger? That can't be right. Why is it in pieces?!"
Stelle placed a hand on Silver Wolf's shoulder, gloating.
"Hey, Silver Wolf, I think you didn't hear the ssage clearly. Let repeat it for you:
Congratulations! Enhancent failed! Hacker Dagger destroyed!"Stelle even mimicked the chanical tone of the system announcent.
Silver Wolf's mouth dropped open.
"Damn it! This thing can fail?!And what's with the 'congratulations'?! There's nothing to celebrate! Ugh!!"
Ye Yun chuckled.
"I forgot to ntion—this enhancent process has a chance of failure.See the enhancent level behind the success ssage?
The higher the enhancent level, the greater the failure rate.You can enhance up to 15."
Stelle perked up at that.
"Oh ho? You can go up to 15? Let try again!"
Without hesitation, Stelle bought 200 enhancent stones and fed them into the machine.
After two heavy hamr strikes—
[Congratulations! Enhancent succeeded!Judgnt of Shamash 1Judgnt of Shamash 2Fire Attribute Attack 20%Sharpness 20%]
Stelle was just about to grab her weapon when Ye Yun spoke.
"Stelle, try one more ti. If it works, you'll get a special effect.Enhancent levels 3, 6, 9, 12, and 15 each have their own effects."
Without hesitation, Stelle bought 300 more stones and started the process again.
After the clang of hamring—
[Congratulations! Enhancent succeeded!Judgnt of Shamash 2Judgnt of Shamash 3Fire Attribute Attack 30%Sharpness 30%Attacks now inflict 1% true damage]
Upon hearing that, Stelle's eyes lit up with stars.
"True damage?! Is it the kind I'm thinking of?!"
She looked at the Judgnt of Shamash again, delighted.
Not only did it gain true damage at 3, the blade now glowed with a faint blue light.
Stelle swallowed hard.
"Shllp~ My Judgnt of Shamash! It—it—it's glowing!!"
She recorded it and swung it a few tis.
"This is too cool! I LOVE this enhancent machine!" she bead.
Silver Wolf stared wide-eyed at the glowing Judgnt of Shamash, full of envy.
Noticing Silver Wolf's expression, Stelle chuckled slyly and walked over.
"Hey Silver Wolf, doesn't my My Judgnt of Shamash look aweso?"
Silver Wolf scoffed and turned away.
"Tch~ It's just 3. Didn't you hear Ye Yun? The max is 15. You're not even halfway there."
Kafka chuckled.
"Darling, could you stop sneaking glances at her sword while saying that?"
At that, Silver Wolf broke character.
"I was not! I'm the great Silver Wolf—how could I be jealous?! No way! Absolutely not! 3? Pfft, I'll get my own!"
She pulled out another Hacker Dagger and tossed it into the machine.
Since the Hacker Dagger wasn't as high quality as the Heavenly Fire Judgnt, the first enhancent only needed 10 stones.
Silver Wolf threw in 10 stones and started the enhancent.
A few seconds later—
[Congratulations! Enhancent failed! Hacker Dagger destroyed!]
Silver Wolf snapped, flailing her arms.
"What the hell!!! Is this machine out to get ?! Huh?! Why am I the only one failing?!
Looks like I need to teach this thing a lesson!"
She yanked out another Hacker Dagger and smashed it against the enhancent machine. It shattered on contact.
She stared blankly at the hilt left in her hand.
"No way... It's that tough?! AHHH!!! I'm so mad!! I need to play a few gas to calm down!!"
Ye Yun couldn't help but feel a little sorry for her—not even getting to 1.
"Silver Wolf, try one more ti. I'll cover the enhancent stones this round."
Silver Wolf brightened and held out her hand.
"Give the stones first."
Ye Yun smiled and handed her two stones. She gleefully threw them into the machine and readied another Hacker Dagger.
Clang clang clang—
[Congratulations! Enhancent succeeded!Hacker Dagger 1Sharpness 10%]
Silver Wolf's face lit up like she'd heard heavenly music.
"That sound... so beautiful~"
Just then, Kiana jumped out of the portal.
"What's that beautiful sound? Let hear too!"
She ran over curiously.
Hiko filled her in about the enhancent machine.
After listening—
"Can I use it to enhance my Athena Valkyrie Armor?" Kiana asked.
Ye Yun shook his head.
"Unfortunately, no. That armor is tied to your title—see the one over your head?
Only items that are still in physical form, like if you haven't equipped the title yet and it's still a wooden plaque, can be enhanced."
Walter chid in.
"So it has to be a physical item, right?"
Ye Yun nodded.
Kiana pouted—she couldn't enhance her armor. What a sha.
Ye Yun looked at her.
"You can enhance other stuff—maybe buy so gear from or sothing."
Kiana's eyes lit up. She raised her hand.
"Oh yeah! Ye Yun! I want to buy a Golden Trash Can!"
Everyone was stunned at her request.
Golden Trash Can? That thing... does have a physical form, so it should be enhancable.
The real question was: how many enhancent stones does it take?
Kiana spent 10,000 Star Coins to buy one and put it into the machine.
The machine quickly displayed the number of stones required—
500 stones.
That's 500,000 Star Coins. Kiana instantly reconsidered. At that price, it didn't feel worth it.
Ye Yun was also curious what a Golden Trash Can would beco after enhancent.
He asked the system ntally:
"System, what happens if the Golden Trash Can is enhanced?"
[Response: A Golden Trash Can will upgrade to a Platinum Trash Can, which can contain items worth up to 10 million Star Coins.]
Ye Yun turned to Kiana.
"Kiana, once enhanced, your Golden Trash Can becos a Platinum Trash Can. It can yield items worth up to 10 million Star Coins.
If you want to buy a Platinum one directly, it costs 1 million."
***
Hiko did so calculations.
"So, based on this, if we use the enhancent machine to get a platinum trash can, it'll only cost 510,000 star coins?"
Ye Yun nodded.
"Technically, that's correct. But you have to consider one thing: if it fails, that 510,000 star coins is gone."
Kiana raised her hand and asked the crucial question.
"Then... should I enhance it?"
Stelle, who always enjoyed the drama, imdiately grabbed Kiana's shoulders.
"Of course you should! Don't you want to know what amazing things could co out of a platinum trash can? Don't you want to feel the thrill of opening it?"
Kiana was taken aback by the excitent.
"Oh! I do!"
Stelle gave her an approving pat on the shoulder.
"Then go for it!"
Kiana clenched her fist.
"Let's go!"
Without hesitation, Kiana bought 500 enhancent stones and tossed them into the machine, placing the golden trash can in as well.
After a series of clanging and banging sounds, the enhancent machine suddenly fell silent. It looked stuck and didn't make a sound for quite a while.
"Is it jamd?" Kiana rubbed her chin thoughtfully.
"Congratulations! Enhancent successful! Luck off the charts! Enhancent level 1 bonus!
Golden Trash Can → Diamond Trash Can!!!"
As the announcent ended, a sparkling trash can made entirely of diamonds appeared before everyone.
Silver Wolf, the unlucky one, held her head in disbelief.
What?! There's a bonus enhancent level now?
Then what about failing twice in a row at 1? Am I really that unlucky?
Kiana, thrilled by the success, rushed to grab the diamond trash can.
She excitedly hugged the trash can and brought it to Ye Yun.
"Ye Yun! What can I get from this diamond trash can?"
Ye Yun didn't answer imdiately. His mind was flooded with system alerts.
[Notice! Custor Kiana is banned from using any luck-based products from this system!][Notice! Custor Kiana is banned from using any luck-based products from this system!][Notice! Custor Kiana is banned from using any luck-based products from this system!]
The system's alert volu was maxed out, ringing three tis and leaving Ye Yun dazed.
Seeing him unresponsive, Kiana waved a hand in front of his eyes.
"Ye Yun! Hey, Ye Yun!"
Ye Yun finally snapped back to reality.
"Huh? Oh, Kiana, what is it? I was just thinking about sothing."
Kiana repeated her question.
"So what can co out of this diamond trash can?"
Ye Yun responded,
"This diamond trash can will give you an item worth at least 10 million star coins, and it could go as high as 50 million.
Kiana, you might be unstoppable now."
Everyone present was dumbfounded.
At least 10 million star coins?!
Stelle urged her excitedly.
"Kiana! Open it now!"
Kiana nodded and placed the diamond trash can on the floor.
With everyone watching eagerly, she opened it.
In an instant, a golden light illuminated the entire shop!
As the light faded, a bracelet inlaid with a red gem appeared.
Kiana walked up and picked it up, examining it closely with one eye squinted.
"What does this bracelet even do? It just looks like a normal bracelet to ."
Ye Yun checked its details:
Item: Enhanced Rainbow Stone (Makdo Edition)Description: A rare gem from a certain universe, it grants abilities based on the user's personality.
This Rainbow Stone contains the original abilities of its previous owner, Makdo.
Skill 1: Chinese at Bun Fist
Skill 2: Ran Golden Staff
Skill 3: at Bun Acceleration
Skill 4: at Bun Spinning Bomb
Skill 5: Giant Rice Dumpling
Skill 6: Great Chinese Noodle Cake
This Rainbow Stone is an enhanced version! Extrely powerful!Market value: 25 million star coins
Ye Yun took a deep breath and sighed.
"Whoa... Kiana, are you the protagonist or sothing?"
Kiana was confused.
"Huh? The protagonist? I'm the protagonist?"
Ye Yun waved it off.
"Doesn't matter. Just put it on. This is a Rainbow Stone — it gives powers that match your personality.
And this one is enhanced."
Kiana put it on. The mont she did, a rush of unfamiliar information flooded her mind.
She also seed to hear music in her ears:
"The familiar scenery aheadIs gradually blurring our promiseYou, wandering under the starry skyAre suddenly bathed in radiant lightAs long as there's a brilliant sky ahead...Let's go again!"
She vaguely saw a young man.
He wore a chef's outfit, one hand on his waist, the other raised high making a pinky-promise gesture.
The boy shouted loudly:
"Those who believe in miracles are as great as miracles themselves! Rainbow Ocean! Let's go!"
After a while, Kiana returned to normal, having absorbed the information.
Stelle and Firefly ca over eagerly.
"How was it, Kiana? You spaced out just now."
Kiana grinned.
"Looks like I really got sothing incredible."
She gestured for them to step back, preparing to demonstrate.
They moved aside.
Kiana circled her hands, shouting:
"Ran Golden Staff!"
A glowing rod appeared in her hands.
She grabbed both ends and pushed inward — a red-and-gold intertwined staff erged.
She picked it up and swung it hard, sending out a blast of fierce energy.
Ye Yun snapped his fingers, dispelling the energy instantly.
"That power is no joke. It's on par with a standard Arbiter's attack.
No wonder it's worth 25 million star coins."
From this mont on, Kiana truly beca what people from Ye Yun's previous world had called her online:
Qi Tian Dasheng (Great Sage Equal to Heaven — Kiana edition).
Jing Yuan was astonished.
"25 million star coins? That explains it. With that kind of price, this power makes sense."
Hiko looked at Kiana.
"Kiana, want to test your power? About three star systems away, there's an Anti-Matter Legion.
One of them is a Doomsday Beast. It should be a good warm-up."
Kiana twirled the staff in her hands. She had been unsure of its power earlier, which is why it exploded with such force.
Now that she understood it better, she controlled her energy and just spun it around without any blast.
"Sure! I've still got a bunch of moves I want to try!
Like the Chinese at Bun Fist, the Giant Rice Dumpling, and so on!"
