Chapter 79: Celestia
Instructor Dillon, Elysia, and Evelyn come to a special building for teachers and other staff at this academy. The building is similar to other buildings but what distinguishes it is the security that is said to be super tight and with special supervision whose methods and descriptions are kept secret.
After Instructor Dillon greeted several guards in the lobby, the three of them immediately walked into Instructor Dillon"s room. Of course, after pa.s.sing through two tightly closed gates that require a special ident.i.ty from the teacher in order to enter.
The two girls who were following him from behind could only look here and look there with curious eyes but remained silent.
"Instructor Dillon, in this building the security looks so scary. What will happen if your special card is lost? Will you be stuck in the room forever?" Evelyn asked innocently as Instructor Dillon was swiping the access card into his room.
"Hahaha! That"s a funny question, of course, I have a spare card. Here the security is tight because this place is a building for storing all important items also under the direct supervision of the emperor or his representatives. Don"t try to act arbitrarily here. Get in quickly, welcome to my a.r.s.enal."
Instructor Dillon entered as soon as access was confirmed and the door opened. Elysia and Evelyn also immediately entered with expressions of curiosity and amazement when they saw the array of swords neatly arranged on the walls and shelves.
The lights were turned on gradually until the entire room was illuminated by a light that seemed to be made to add a majestic impression to this 50 square meter room.
"This is the a.r.s.enal that I am proud of, filled with thousands of weapons of various types that I have collected during my lifetime. Elysia girl, you have the right to choose one weapon of your choice with the limits that you cannot choose a weapon on that golden altar." Instructor Dillon pressed a device near the entrance to close the door and then pointed to the altar at the end of the room.
"I understand, Instructor Dillon. Let me tour the room with Eve." Elysia nodded happily, there were lots of beautiful and charming weapons that were of course sharp and well maintained.
"Sure, I"ll guide you."
"Come on, Eve."
"Yay!"
Evelyn and Elysia started looking through the weapons from the nearest weapon rack one by one then switched to the other weapons array to make sure they saw everything and make sure they found a sword or weapon suitable for Elysia. Starting from various types of swords, spears, bows, to knife-edged fans.
"Nee, Eve. When compared to your royal treasury, how about the weapons in this a.r.s.enal?" Elysia made small talk while examining a level 20 longsword with her identification ability.
"Even though it"s small here, the content might be compared to my royal father"s private collection. Ely, take a look at this zweihander." Evelyn picked up a two-handed sword that was over two meters long.
"Woah, what a long sword. Too long for my height." Elysia shook her head when she saw that the zweihander was only level 10.
"Of course it"s different, but I can confidently say that I have an a.r.s.enal that can be compared to the emperor"s collection. It"s lv. 10 zweihander I acquired in the western region five years ago." Instructor Dillon folded his arms proudly. He had spent his life collecting all these sharp weapons after becoming aware of the path of his sword.
"Instructor Dillon, can we look over there?" Elysia pointed to the shelf near the golden altar, the place where the highest tier of swords she could choose.
"There are swords with a level around 40, you know? You won"t be able to use its full potential until you are at the "Great Master" level."
"In that case, you can use the full potential of a sword to what level, Instructor Dillon?" Elysia still doesn"t understand the third-level user rule.
"I"m special. I"m level 115, but I can use the full potential of lv. 50 weapons."
"Hmm... Then I"ll be fine with a high-level weapon even though I can"t use its full ability yet. Let"s have a look over there, Eve."
Elysia took Evelyn"s hand to go to the higher level sword section, the front section only had weapons with level 20 as the highest level and it didn"t attract Elysia"s attention in the slightest. Even from the provisions that Harold had given her, there were several lv. 30 weapons.
They looked through the many weapons one by one again in the middle section which had a weapon level between level 21 to level 40. Unfortunately, nothing caught Elysia"s attention at all, she had not found a suitable weapon for her.
While they were looking around with Evelyn explaining some of the weapons while helping to choose weapons and Instructor Dillon also providing guidance, Elysia who had been listening became distracted when she saw the weapon on the golden altar.
A neat array of weapons level 41 and above is beautifully displayed on the stunning altar. She seemed to be attracted by one of those dazzling weapons which were given a special place in the form of a golden altar and a special illumination made as if they were all heavenly weapons.
Due to their close proximity, she could finally see the level of all of the extremely limited number of weapons and no more than fifteen guns on the altar. Unfortunately, Elysia"s original focus was not on one of the weapons there, but on the white cat that still used camouflage techniques and was disguised by Elysia"s energy blanket.
There was a white cat who came into the a.r.s.enal with them because she would always follow her master everywhere, but she was trying to grab a multi-sided prism crystal with two sharp edges that were placed on the sacred shelf on the golden altar., the last section.
"Vanessa, what are you doing?"
"I"m just curious about this crystal, master. These crystals can sparkle very beautifully."
"That"s no good, get away from there quickly. If you get caught I don"t know what to do. "
"Um, yes master." Vanessa immediately stepped away from the golden altar and toured the a.r.s.enal at will.
"Elysia girl, are you fascinated by the charm of the weapons on the golden altar?" Instructor Dillon seemed to understand what was on Elysia"s mind who seemed to be daydreaming about the weapons on the golden altar.
"Yes."
Elysia nodded while checking all the levels of the weapons on display there, but what caught Elysia"s attention the most was the long but thin black sword along with its sheath which was displayed in the center of the altar.
[| Lv. 65 | Heaven Grade | Celestia | 100/100 |]
"Instructor Dillon, can I have a look there? Just looking, really." Elysia looked at Instructor Dillon as if she was pleading.
"Err... Alright. Don"t try to lift it if you"re not strong enough. Weapons with level 41 or above are Earth Grade, a very different cla.s.s from level 40 or below."
Instructor Dillon scratched his non-existent hair a little awkwardly because he oddly felt that he didn"t want to turn down a request from this talented girl.
"Yay! Thank you."
Elysia went there first and left Evelyn who was also stunned to see the weapons on the golden altar from close range, but the latter also approached the altar where fifteen weapons were on display.
Evelyn watched closely all those high-cla.s.s weapons that were on the level of her royal father"s extraordinary sword collection, but she didn"t dare touch and lift them because Earth Grade weapons were too high for her. Whereas, Elysia slowly raised the highest level sword without effort.
"What!? You can lift it so easily? How can you lift an odachi that heavy with your fragile hands?" Instructor Dillon looked absurdly surprised.
"Eh? Heavy? Is it that heavy? It"s really light though." Elysia raised and lowered the odachi with one hand without changing the expression on her face.
"What are you saying? This sword is called Celestia, level 50 heaviest sword I least want to use but this sword is the most beautiful and charming. Try leaving it to me for a moment."
Elysia immediately gave the all-black sword in her hand to Instructor Dillon.
"Look at all the muscles I used when I raised this magic sword? This sword is extraordinarily special which I accidentally found in Avrora Forest several years ago. Evelyn girl, try lifting this sword."
Instructor Dillon tugged at his sleeves and exposed all the muscles and muscles he used to lift this sword, he immediately asked Evelyn to try as he saw Elysia"s face of disbelief and doubt.
"Ugh! It"s so heavy! I can lift up to 25 kilos easily but how many kilos this sword, uh..." Evelyn gave up as she tried to lift the swords in Instructor Dillon"s two hands.
