Dagger

Jacob was stunned after reading the information on the innate talent that he acquired. It was an information about the ability with a letter from a scientist of the Intellect Race. It even described how their race vanished from existence.

"What a mysterious ability and what a mysterious universe this is, it even described that the very foundation of the universe was these Universe Runes that the great being used to create the universe where even Gods cannot fathom." Jacob was amazed by the mystery that he discovered.

With no other peculiarity with his data aside from his newly gained innate talent, Jacob started to see what he can do with this Universe Runes and to what extend he can use it.

Opening the interface about the Universe Runes, Jacob started looking for the guidelines on how to use this talent of his.

[Universe Runes: level 1- can use a word to empower anything, a weapon, skill, body, and anything you can see.

: level 2- locked

: level 3- locked…..

: level 100- locked]

"Woahhh! Even though level 1 was the only one available, the power it holds is still incredible as it can use any word to empower anything that I can see. Maybe if I unlock those levels, I can use a lot of words to create a power never seen before and only my imagination is the limit" Jacob was so happy that he started to envision himself standing on the peak of the universe.

"Can I experiment with it using my ability Plasma Manipulation? Hehe, I have a pile of metals here and I can experiment it creating a weapon, and if it is good, then I can sell it for a lot more that what I can earn from selling it as a scrap" he said as he looked at those pile of metal scraps

"Plasma manipulation! Mold! Mold! Form!" Jacob activated his ability and form a simple dagger with the metals that he collected. He used a black iron as the metal used for the dagger. It was done in a matter of minutes. The dagger was simple, and it has no other decorations aside from a lion head on the bottom of its handle.

"I think this should be enough. What universe rune should I put into this?" as Jacob looked at the dagger, he was thinking for a suitable rune for it that was usable for level 1.

He opened the interface for level 1 Universe Runes and browse through the words that he can use.

[1. Absorb...

1000. Zip]

There's a thousand words that he can use for the dagger that he was holding, and it will take time for him to choose what he wanted.

"It is hard to choose among these words because everything is so good, and I am still testing this new ability. I should not make this so hard for myself. Maybe I can choose this number one word 'ABSORB'. Right, that should be it." Jacob started to activate his ability, Universe Runes.

The dagger that he was holding started to float and a dazzling color enshrouded it, the color was like rainbow, but it was more celestial than it.

Using his consciousness to input the word ABSORB into the dagger, letters of unknown origin started to merge with the blade of the dagger and afterwards it became a beautiful decoration on the dagger.

After the merging of Universe Runes at the blade of the dagger, the surrounding lights started to dim and fade away. Jacob immediately grabs the dagger and information about it started to appear in front of him.

[Dagger (no name)

Grade: Growth Type weapon

Ability: Absorbs the energy of the slain enemy using this dagger and helps upgrade the dagger, it can also absorb other weapons owned by the user to upgrade the material of the dagger, the limit of its improvement was limited to the realm of the user, and it cannot go beyond the realm of the user.]

"What!!! The first item I made was a growth type weapon." Jacob was shocked because he did not expect that he was holding an item that was rare and even great organizations of humans was having a hard time to obtain.

"I only used some of my energy and a bit of metal scraps that I obtained from the dumpsite and now, I created this Growth type weapon. If the higher ups of humanity get hold of this information, they will immediately lock me up and use me for their own benefit, luckily this dagger looks like an ordinary black iron dagger. I will only upgrade its material when it is necessary, and it is according to my ability and strength" Jacob carefully plans to keep this ability a secret and only plans to play it safe.
