Chapter 114 - Greatsword
All he could do was watch as a bright silver light flashed straight by him
'Damn! It's that little shit again!'
Dante instantly recognised the moonlight sword from its signature silver light and quickly knew that it was back to its devious antics.
The sword didn't seem to care for Dante's frustration and flashed right past him, piercing into the armour set and dragging it out of his hand.
As the moonlight sword pierced through the armour, the armour seemed to flash as various runes and inscriptions on it all shattered in a brilliant burst of light.
Dante looked at the damaged piece of armour in front of him.
The after effects of the damage had caused the previously bright and vibrant armour into nothing more than dull husk!
It was at that very moment that Dante knew that his precious new treasure was truly destroyed!
Just by looking at it, Dante could clearly tell that any previous use that the armour had was now gone.
It had become nothing more than a slightly fancy piece of scrap metal.
Knowing there was nothing he could do to change this outcome, Dante could only sigh as he went up to retrieve his moonlight sword.
As Dante walked up to the sword, he was already thinking about how he would teach it a lesson.
Recently, the sword had been getting out of hand as its behavior just kept getting worse and worse!
If nothing was done and it was left unchecked, who knew how much destruction it could possibly cause?
With hundreds of punishments in his head, Dante slowly stretched out his hand and reached for the sword.
But just as Dante was about to touch the hilt of his sword, he was suddenly hit by a giant burst of silver light!
For a second there, the world seemed to turn silver as Dante's eyes were quickly blinded by a wave of silver light.
Fortunately for Dante, this state didn't seem to last long as soon the wave of silver light dimmed down considerably, allowing Dante to get a better look at what was even going on.
Taking a second to gather himself, Dante could now see that his moonlight sword was still glowing, albeit in a much softer light.
But strangely enough, somehow the armour set that was being pierced by the sword was glowing as well!
As if that wasn't enough, the strange things didn't seem to end there as while the armour was glowing, it also appeared to be shrinking. Or more correctly, it seemed as if the armour was being absorbed!
The moonlight sword was absorbing the armour set!
This absorption process didn't stop as while the armour was being absorbed, the size of the moonlight sword kept on growing larger and larger.
This strange process continued on until the silver light signature to the moonlight sword itself morphed into a deeper aquamarine blue.
Eventually, the light got weaker and weaker, until Dante could finally make out his sword again.
In just a short time, the sword had undergone some drastic changes!
First of all, the size of the sword had ballooned! From tip to hilt, the sword stood at a terrifying 6ft and had a width of at least 11inches.
The sword was also at least an inch thick, meaning its weight wouldn't be light in the slightest.
The body of the sword was an aquamarine colour with silver highlights running through it similar while the hilt of the sword itself remained a dazzling silver of his previous Moonlight Sword.
Despite all this, perhaps most strange thing was the Pearl merged deep into the middle of the sword hilt.
The Pearl still seemed to release an icy wave of energy as a terrifying cold spread throughout the entire room, causing even Dante to feel goosebumps
Dante walked up towards the sword and slowly lifted it up from the ground.
As soon as he the sword in his hand, Dante could already feel the difference that the change in size had made.
Just lifting the sword up from the ground requires Dante to put in much more effort than before.
Before, Dante had always felt like his sword was a bit too light for him.
One of Dante's advantages had always been his ridiculous physical strength.
The percentage increase brought on by his 'Draconic might' passive was truly terrifying when you calculated it all
But the only problem was that with his previous sword, he always felt as if he was never getting the full potential out of his ridiculous strength.
The advantage of strength was to be unstoppable and even brutal some times But with his previous thin sword, Dante never really could enact truly brutal attacks.
This all changed now, however, as now that Dante had such a massive sword, he knew he could finally utilise all his strength.
Just lifting the sword alone caused Dante to put in some effort and we all know how ridiculous his strength is and if this can be used as a measure of its weight, you can just imagine how heavy that sword would feel for everyone else.
But the scary thing was that now if the weight of the sword and was combined with Dante's strength...
Just that thought alone put a wide smile onto Dante's face
Dante casually swung his greatsword, and in doing so, caused a giant wave of air to spread around his room, scattering all his intricately arranged furniture.
But despite all this, Dante didn't seem to care as he kept on swinging his sword and practicing his sword technique, in an effort to try and familiarise himself with his new sword.
Slowly but surely, Dante got more and more familiar with his sword until his sword once again felt like an extension of his arm, just going to showing that the connection he and the moonlight sword had was just as strong as ever!
Now satisfied with his practice, Dante went to take a short rest, but before Dante put his sword down, he couldn't help but look at his sword.
"Sigh!"
"You really have gotten much fatter than before."
Dante couldn't help but shake his head, feeling the additional weight of his sword.
"Buzz!!"
The moonlight sword wasn't too happy with Dante's choice of words and made sure its unhappiness was known.
"Haha! Calm down, I was just joking"
But Dante could still sense that the moonlight sword was still unhappy, so he spoke.
"look, let's not be sad. I have a job for you to do."
"buzz!"
just like a kid, the moonlight sword had already forgotten about what Dante had said and wanted to go out and explore.
'tch! This kid is too easy!' Thought Dante.
