After seeing the pill's information, Jeremy thought to himself,

'A special ranked item, which simply ans the pill is not ranked or unrankable...'

'As for the information, it is too simple and precise. It clearly has sothing more to it, but the Analyze skill cannot view that hidden information as the skill's level is too low.'

Shaking his head slightly to discard those thoughts, then Jeremy's eyes fell upon the word 'Unknown',

'The Unknown... The word that I've heard a few tis in my past life, but there is no definitive answer or evidence to pinpoint what exactly it is so far....'

Then Jeremy dismissed the interface before him and said into the dark space,

"Do you have any good spear with the price of one white star?"

When rcury had heard Jeremy's words, he promptly answered,

❰ I have nine of them. If you don't want to see a lengthy interface, you have to be more specific ❱

"Then add the word 'mana' as a filter. How many are left?"

❰ There are two left. Do you want to view them? ❱

"Sure, show ."

Afterward, an interface containing two items suddenly showed up before Jeremy...

...

『 Anguish 』

Ability:

1. After being injected with mana, the entire spearhead will be coated with a sharp mana blade, whereas the hardness, sharpness, and weight of Anguish will be increased indefinitely according to the quantity and quality of mana input.

2. After being wounded by Anguish, the victim will experience physical and ntal pain according to the degree of injury and mana infused within the attack.

3. Anguish is a semi-sentient spear that can perceive the user's desires. As long as its consciousness is safe, the spear will uphold the 'Indestructible' property.

Note - A grey wooden spear nad Anguish, mory of Twisted Vision, made from an unknown teorite talwood smithed by a legendary dwarf, Jazar.

『 Shadowfury 』

Ability:

1. The spear blade is coated with the shadow elent at all tis and will inflict a tier-6 Shadow Curse upon contact. (Stackable)

2. Upon being injected with mana, the shaft will extend itself instantaneously up to ten ters.

Skill:

1. [Devouring Void Shadow] - Upon activating, Shawdowfury will consu all its shadow energy and so of the user's mana to launch a single tier-8 Devouring Void Shadow spell towards the target. (Cooldown 1 month; within this period, the ability Shadow Curse will stop working)

Note - A dark steel spear nad Shadowfury, Harvestor of Dark Soul, created from shadow steel combined with a strange smithing technique of the elental race.

...

Upon seeing the two items' description, there was only one word lingering within Jeremy's mind,

'Magnificent...'

Indeed, the two spears were top-notch weapons comparable to Jeremy's staff in his past life.

How could they not be magnificent with such profiles?

'Especially the second one, Shadowfury, contains a tier-8 spell cast from the combination of shadow and mana energy. Furthermore, every attack from this spear will inflict a stackable curse on the target. It is a true nightmare for any lee opponent...'

'Well, that's why the elental race is feared by those guys in the first place. After all, they can create such a fearso weapon like this...'

'However, the first spear, Anguish, created by the legendary dwarf, doesn't lose out in the least compared to Shadowfury as it even has a consciousness of itself.'

'It is widely known that an item with a consciousness will have an indestructible property as long as the said consciousness is safe and sound. Furthermore, a conscious item can be upgraded...'

'anwhile, Anguish's first ability contains the word 'indefinitely' after being injected with mana... Hmm... Doesn't that an an attack coming from this spear can be as heavy as a mountain and as hard as the toughest ore?'

'If so...'

Simultaneously, Jeremy fell into deep thought. He was thinking hard about the pros and cons of the two spears.

After all, it was a purchase worth one white star. Even in Jeremy's past life, he didn't dare to spend such an amount easily.

At this ti, Jeremy was comparing the two weapons advantageous and disadvantageous sides,

'Speaking of the OPness, Shadowfury is clearly superior as it can boost my fighting power to the highest level, even beyond the level of the current strongest human in one fell swoop...'

'Speaking of the potential, Anguish appears to be countless tis better as it doesn't have a cooldown or anything like that. Furthermore, it has a consciousness, which ans the spear can evolve and be upgraded further...'

'Now, talking about the cons, Shadowfury is indeed superbly strong... well, it is, in fact, too strong for the current to handle. Looking at its sole skill's description, it states that activating the tier-8 spell requires 'so' of the user's mana. However, the word 'so' is too ambiguous as it might suck dry and makes beco a mummy in a split second.'

'Not to talk about the aftermaths after activating the spell. Typically, a tier-8 spell can easily decimate the entire district filled with billions of people into nothingness in the blink of an eye. As the user of the spell, there ought to be so indirect damages or repercussions back to ...'

'I think I won't survive the collateral damages of such a magnitude of spell.'

Thinking up till here, Jeremy promptly shook his head in disappointnt.

If Jeremy decided to buy Shadowfury, he had to refrain from activating the third ability no matter what it took. That was... until he was strong enough to handle the spell's side effects, which should be around when he was at least a class 6 of the mage pathway.

Afterward, Jeremy continued his thought,

'About Anguish's disadvantageous sides: First of all, the spear's attacking power is solely dependent on the quantity and quality of my mana. That ans Anguish's attacking power is not up to anything at all right now. Secondly, it doesn't have an ultimate skill like Shadowfury, subsequently making it sowhat bland with only the capability of short-ranged attacking.'

'Hmm...'

At this ti, Jeremy used his left hand to caress his chin lightly...

'In fact, it is not that hard to decide, isn't it? The answer is clear as day...'

Having thought so, Jeremy raised his head slightly before speaking into the dark space,

"I really want to take Shadowfury... but..."

❰ Hmm? ❱

"I cannot bring out its full potential anyti soon, and I'm not even sure If I can wield it or not from the supposedly great amount of shadow energy stored within the spear. Instead, I might be swallowed up by the shadow energy if not careful... so..."

❰ So? ❱

"I've decided..."

"I want to buy Anguish."

After hearing Jeremy's choice, rcury asked in an excited tone,

❰ Oh... Confirm? ❱

"Confirm..."

❰ Alright then ❱

❰ Transaction accepted! ❱

...

『 Transaction has been accepted 』

『 A total of 1x✰ has been deducted from your star account for the trade 』

『 You have 1x✰ remaining in your star account 』

『 Comncing the spatial breaching process... 』

『 ... 』

『 You have acquired Anguish, mory of Twisted Vision 』

『 Transaction is concluded 』

...

After the transaction was concluded, rcury's genderless voice resounded sonorously,

❰ Thank you for another big deal! Today is such a good day. Hahaha! ❱

Not long after the interface disappeared, a spatial breach occurred before Jeremy again.

This ti, from within the spatial distortion, a two-ter long object suddenly appeared as Jeremy reached out his hand to catch it.

The plain-looking spear in Jeremy's left hand right now was silver-grey in color, just like typical steel.

However, from the spear's textures, Jeremy knew that it was clearly made from wood, but at the sa ti, the hardness and toughness of the spear were nothing different than steel at all.

Furthermore, the spearhead was also made from the sa wooden material. The entire spear looked like a whole thing with no point of connection or adjacency from being assembled together at all.

'It's very heavy... around sixty kilograms...' Jeremy thought in shock after feeling the spear's weight within his hand.

Afterward, Jeremy started wielding, and swinging Anguish left and right, creating gusty wind and whooshing sounds within the dark space.

It wasn't strange that there was air and wind within this space as Jeremy could breathe normally right now.

'It looks like I have to practice hard before I can use it fluently.'

Jeremy shook his head slightly after feeling that it was pretty challenging to wield such a heavy weapon in a real battle with his current physical strength.

'Alright, let's check its stats...'

Having thought so, Jeremy commanded inwardly,

'[Analyze]'

...
