More loot

Of course, before going he slashed open the Captain's wrist and sprayed blood on his robe. The blood was absorbed as always, and the robe suddenly took a shade darker. He also looked at the staff's stats.

[Name: Scorpion's Shell]

[Type: Armor]

[Rarity: Blue]

[Defense: D]

[Requirement: Owned by Boring Guy.]

[Effects: Strength +6, killing aura strengthening]

[Blood Clone: Creates a clone of yourself with all of your skills and 50% of your attributes. Duration: 30 seconds. Cooldown: 1 hour.]

The equipment had become really good, especially the skill, to be able to make a clone could have a lot of uses. It was a shame it could only last 30 seconds, but it was still great for combat.

[Name: Staff of Agun]

[Type: Magic Weapon]

[Rarity: Blue]

[Attack: D]

[Requirement: 20 Intelligence, Any Adept Magic]

[Effects: Smart lvl3]

[Channel: Instantly recover 100 MP. Cooldown: 5 hours]

[Durability: 780/1000]

[Remarks: Agun is a renowned wizard who gained his fame by creating the Wing Lance spell.]

Dorian did not put the staff in his spatial ring and instead in one of his spatial bags, to make sure he wouldn't sell it by accident.

Dorian looked at the body near his feet. Marcus. He had a green armor, his blue great sword, a green earring and two blue rings.

Dorian first looked at the green items. The armor wasn't anything amazing, Dorian barely looked at its status before putting it into his spatial ring. The reason was that its durability was nearing zero.

So, Dorian took a look at that earring.

[Name: Golden Earring]

[Type: Earring]

[Rarity: Green]

[Defense: F]

[Requirement: None]

[Effects: Perception +3]

[Durability: 500/500]

[Remark: This was made of gold then enchanted.]

There wasn't anything special to that earring, but it still added three points to Perception so Dorian tried putting it on. Putting on equipment could be weird some times, and this was one of such times.

Although Dorian never pierced his ears, the equipment just attached itself to his ear without any pain. Dorian didn't know whether it had pierced his ear or not though.

Although the upgrade was nice, this wasn't what interested Dorian the most. What Dorian wanted to see, were the sword and what was inside the ring.

Dorian took the sword first, which he lifted quite easily.

[Name: Azure Dragon (Replica)]

[Type: Melee Weapon]

[Rarity: Blue]

[Attack: D]

[Requirement: Basic Swordsmanship (Level 10), 20 Strength, 20 Agility]

[Effects: Crush lvl3]

[Overwhelming Strike: If your Strength Attribute is stronger than your opponent, then 50 additional damages will be dealt. If your Strength is weaker, then this strike will gain an armor penetration bonus of 30%.]

[Durability: 968/1000]

[Remarks: Marcus' favorite sword, he wouldn't let anyone touch it. This is a replica of the sword of the current king of Nevaria.]

This was undoubtedly the strongest status page he had seen. The skill was simply overpowered, well overwhelming, no matter who he striked he would get the advantage. That also helped him understand how the sword had cut into his hand, because Marcus' strength was lower than Dorian's, the armor piercing effect had come into place.

Speaking of this, Dorian suddenly remembered something. He had forgotten about his sub skills for Agility and Strength.

Dorian put away his green light sword into his Spatial Ring and strapped the Azure Dragon on his back. Despite hiding his emotions most of the time, Dorian could hardly hide his pride at the moment. His weapon was a replica of the weapon of a King.

Dorian opened his status, which had changed drastically.

[Condition: -High Demon's Curse: You have been cursed by the High Demon Guntad for killing his subordinate. Because you are unworthy of himself coming to kill you, he will regularly send demon subordinates at your pursuit regardless of the world you are in, except for your home world.

-Dark vulnerability: Because of your bloodline, you suffer 50% more Dark Damage.]

[Equipment: …]

He was no longer the weak boy who just entered this world, he had now basically become a monster surpassing every limit set for this place. And he wasn't finished, he still had to take the loot from Marcus' Spatial Ring, which should contain the artifact, but also Ludwig's body.

For his Agility, the two sub skills were:

[Swift: Makes your movement and attack speeds 10% faster.]

[Agile: Gives you perfect balance and makes you 10% more flexible.]

Again, Swift was interesting, a buff on his speed would be good, but Dorian still felt that would be wasted, he already had enough ways to make himself faster. But he had nothing for his balance and flexibility until he unlocks the [Balance] ability.

That was a dilemma that Dorian saw and read a lot. Should one become a jack of all trades, master of nothing, or become an extreme master in something, but lack in all other areas?

Most of the time, main characters, because they are the main characters, don't have this problem and were able to be jack of all trades while being better than everyone else in every way possible.

But this was the real world, and Dorian knew that he had to make a choice. And his choice was to be a jack of all trades. The reason for that is that he believes that no one can save him better than himself.

The most glaring weakness of an extreme master is their weakness in other fields, but if they are part of a team then they can ignore that weakness.

But Dorian didn't believe in that. For him, no one would better protect him than himself. And that's why he decided to cover all fronts rather than depend on others. It's not that he is an introvert that doesn't intend on speaking to anyone, but he couldn't put enough trust in someone to trust them with his life.

And if he continued on this path, even as a Jack of all trades he would be able to dominate everything.

After picking [Agile], it was the Strength turn:

[Destruction: Deal 10% more damage to materials.]

[Hurt: Deal 10% more damage to characters.]

This time, Dorian didn't have any reason to choose the seemingly weak one. Honestly, [Destruction] seemed rather useless, he would rather make more damage to enemies than the environment.

He could see some use in Destruction as it would make more damage to his enemies armors, but why would he do that, what is he going to loot if he destroys everything?

So without hesitation he finished picking out his skills.

Now, Dorian looked at the two rings. After getting a closer look, he was able to see that both rings weren't the same. One was a Spatial Ring like the other, but the other one looked different. Of course, Dorian checked them both.

The first came as a Spatial Ring, as expected. Normal people wouldn't see the differences between the rings, but Dorian could even without the status, thanks to his status as a Runemaster. For such artifacts, forgers like Charles would be in charge of making the ring as conductible to mana as possible, while the Runemaster would put the runes allowing for the ring to become a Spatial Ring.

While the first one was normal, the same couldn't be said about the second.
