A special sword
While the Yugo and Ven were preparing themselves for today, Kye was finally able to see what the system gave him after accomplishing the mission.
[You have shown to the one who had offended Heaven its wrath]
[Heaven wants to reward you for your noble did]
[Would you like to accept Heaven's reward?]
'What type of question is that? Of course I wan...' Kye was thinking before remembering how his evolution proceeded. 'Should I really do it? They won't evolve me again, right?'
He thought and thought again and again, but in the end, he decided to take the rewards. He didn't know what it could be, but a reward was a reward. So it could only render him stronger.
[Congratulation, Heaven gave you a special sword]
Without even waiting a moment, the reward appeared out of thin air. Fortunately, Yugo was taking a shower while Ven was on the toilet, so no one saw that.
But the sword just came out of nowhere, and if they were here, they would only have even more questions. And it would be hard to talk about it without explaining the system.
Though, even with this surprise, Kye couldn't help but be in awe when he was looking at the sword.
The sword was pretty simple and was only composed of two colors. White that was covering most parts of the blade and the pommel, and a golden color that was covering the edge of both of them.
the design was simple but really, really pretty.
However, it was quite long, so it wasn't with his little height that he would be able to wield it. Or at least, he will, but with some difficulties.
But he put all of that aside and try to examine the sword in more detail. And as if the system wanted to answer him, it showed the sword stats.
[Due to the host's current level, the sword has hidden features and its stats had been lowered to correspond with the host's capability.

'Well, it seems that I need to level up. But I don't think it's with my additional quest that I will go far. It's only 15 EXP per day, while I need 200 EXP. And it's only going to go up, so I need to find a way,' Kye thought. He didn't think much of the sword stat page because there weren't a lot of things. Sure his stats were going up, but he didn't know how much it would affect him during a fight.
And he was more concerned about the sword in itself. Heaven gave him a sword, but he didn't know anything about swords.
Mastering the sword style wasn't something one could achieve without effort, but the problem was that he didn't know from where he needed to begin with. Sure he will have the weapons class today, but it wasn't as if he will learn to use the sword that much, right?
While he was thinking that, multiple messages from the system came again.
[Would you like to change the sword's form?]
'Well, yes?' Kye thought, and his sword began to shine in golden light before transforming into a middle-finger ring. It was a mix of white and gold colors. 'Nice, I would be able to have it with me wherever I go without people noticing it. That's pretty cool.'
As he said, it was as if he would have a trump card wherever he will go. Not knowing which weapon he had when he was fighting against people was a big advantage that wasn't negligible at all.
But it wasn't the end of it.

'This one was free. That's really nice,' He thought as he opened his stats page.

'I don't know if it's good or not, but I guess that's a nice start,' He thought as Yugo went out of the bathroom.
"Kye, are you already ready?" Yugo said as he remarked something. "Oh, where did you get this ring?"
'How in the world did he already see it?' Kye thought with fake tears, 'It was on my belongings, so I decided to put it. Do you like it?'
"Yeah, it's quite pretty," He said as he began to put clothes on him.
It was then Ven's turn to take a shower, and after some time, he had finished too.
At 7:30 am, everyone was finally ready. They had done everything they needed for the day.
And the thing that took the most time after their morning routine was how would Kye act in front of other people. He was the last to have been seen with the big guy, so people or even the military will surely question him about what happened.
And even though Kye said multiple times that he didn't need to because he already knew what to say, both Yugo and Ven insisted on it. They didn't want Kye to be in trouble again, so they did their best to help him.
And not once they had mentioned something about themselves.
"Guys, I'm happy that you want to protect me and all, but why don't you guys think a little bit about yourselves?" Kye said. "I mean, won't you get into trouble too since you were searching for us yesterday?"
The boys looked at each other, and then Yugo said, "You don't have to worry about that. The military won't be able to touch us. At best, they will just warn us, and that is if they manage to find evidence."
"That's right. We did a pretty good job by destroying any kind of clue. So the only thing they have is the students' gossip," Ven added.
"Are you sure? Will your family's influence be enough to protect you against the military?" Kye asked. Even though they were saying that the military was a strong force, so they couldn't possibly stay without fear.
"Yep, you really don't have to worry about that. And as I say, the most they would be able to do was to warn us," Yugo said. "And I search for some information about the guy who died. His name is Kord Brat, and based on what I found, he was just a nobody. So there won't be any problem with a big influence."
Hearing him say that, Kye once again understood how much the weak were seen as tr*sh. If the death of someone wasn't affecting the high level, then it only means that this society was rotten to its core.
However, sure it was the case, he still wanted to believe in his new friends. They were high levels too, so they had some bad habits, but they were working on them for his well-being.
They wanted to change, so it was the best thing Kye could hope for.
