Most appealing characteristic

Meanwhile, inside the workshop.

"Hi?"

The woman didn't care about him as she walked passed Vince and walked towards the one who sent him here instead.

"May I ask the situation, Bishop Armin?" she respectfully asked.

She's actually the Head of Production and Artifact Department of this branch but she's speaking politely to give face for the Bishop of the Church of Sun God. Especially since this person actually came from the Inner Layer branch.

Armin smiled benignly. "The branch manager wanted you to make a weapon and armor for him to use. Make sure to ask for his opinion about them and don't half-assed it."

"I never half-assed my work," she subconsciously responded before sighing.

'Why did I even agree to sister when she send me here?' She couldn't help but rolled her eyes.

Aside from the Four Guilds and Player's Association, there are numerous major organizations that players can join. Such as the Specialist Confederation and Healers Alliance. There are also for priest who served the same God like the Church of Sun God.

However, this organizations doesn't focus on leveling up but improving skills and their members can still joined the Four Guilds.

For example, Irina Nox is part of the Specialist Confederation. For specialist, their way of leveling up was different. It depends on their proficiency instead. The more they used their skills, the higher their proficiency. The proficiency replaced XP.

This is the reason why they never bother to fight for dungeon rights. But their prestige is comparable to the Four Guilds as no one wanted to messed up with their organization. After all, most of the players needed their help to create their weapons and artifacts that can protect them and keep their lives longer.

Irina couldn't helped but asked in a low voice. "Is he an important person?"

"Well, all I can say is that, we cannot offend him..."

Vince didn't care on what they're whispering about in the door. He was still confused about the situation but he can understand that this happened after he showed the token. So he decided to send a message to Mr. Orpheur.

You: Hi, sir! Sorry to bother you. But may I ask if the token you gave me is a precious item?

It didn't even take long when he received a reply. As if the other person was waiting for him the whole time.

Pope Orpheus: Why? Did something happened?

You: When I showed them the token, they brought me to a blacksmith(?) then they said that since I'm stil new, the guild will provide me with a new weapon and gear. I think that it's suspicious. It was clearly stated in the contract that the members will take care of their own... see more

He sent a long reply, clearly describing the strange situation earlier.

Pope Orpheus: I think that you should get a weapon and a proper gear. If you're uncomfortable, just tell them you wanted to choose an already crafted weapon instead of a customized one.

Then, another message was sent.

Pope Orpheus: Don't worry about the price, I'll pay for it. It's my gift for you.

Pope Orpheus: And call me brother from now on.

Vince who was about to say that he doesn't have money immediately stopped. 'It should be okay to accept Mr. Orpheus' goodwill right?' Since the other was a pope, he must've a lot of money since he's a high-level player.

After considering the balance in his bank account, he happily send a message.

You: Thank you, sir! I'll do my best to be a good priest and spread the words of our God! >_<

Then he saw the last message and replaced 'sir' with 'brother'.

There was no reply even after a minute so Vince closed the phone and put it in his pocket.

Pope Orpheus: ...

Pope Orpheus: ...please don't.

The simple message seemed to expressed the sender's complicated emotions at the moment. Too bad, Vince wouldn't see it as the message was withdrawn right after.

The innocent Vince happily walked towards the two. They immediately stopped talking after seeing him and smiled awkwardly.

"I'm sorry. Are we taking so long? Don't worry. Irina can make your weapon right this instant." Armin turned towards Irina, his eyes slightly widened. 'Do it.'

She sighed, secretly rolling her eyes. Before turning towards Vince. Irina was about to speak when he beat her to it.

"I'm sorry. But I just wanted to choose soemthing already made instead of a customized one," he spoke the words his new brother told him.

He saw their doubtful gazes so he immediately added. "Brother said that he'll play for it! I won't steal anything. If you don't believe me I can call him now—"

He was about to take out his phone when Armin suddenly shouted. "NOOOO!" he even extended his hand to gripped his, stopping his movements.

His voice echoed in the hallway rendering Vince speechless. 'Did he have to shout that loud?' Then he glance at the hand holding him. 'And why is holding me so tightly...?'

Irina bit her lower lips to stopped herself from laughing out loud. Her body was trembling as she repeated the same sentence in her mind.

'Don't laugh. Don't laugh. Don't laugh.'

Armin slowly turned red from his face, down to his ears and neck as a notification flashed in his eyes.

[The Sun God was dying from laughter.]

[Message: HAHAHAHA you fucking idiot LMAO]

[Message: From now on, don't go around wearing the Church of Sun God's robe anymore]

[Message: HAHAHAHA dumbass]

[The Sun God gave you 500 system points.]

He coughed blood.

In the end, Vince was guided by Irina towards a room on the floor B5. Armin couldn't look at his eyes anymore from shame. He wanted to bury himself in the ground. He received a critical damage from the Sun God and wouldn't be able to recover immediately.

The elevator opened with a 'ding'. Both of them stepped out.

He was immediately welcomed by a giant metallic wall with a small hole in the middle. Irina took out her badge and put it inside the hole. The two seemed to be made for each other as they fit perfectly.

There was no sound at all as the wall started to slide away, revealing the inside of the room.

"I opened all three doors for you so just choose whatever you like. Take your time. I'll wait for you here."

He nodded his head with a small smile on his lips. "I'll be quick." then he quickly walked inside.

Irina stared at Vince's almost naive face and thought. 'So his brother is some bigshot?' He wondered who is this pperon but soon shrugged. 'Well, not my business.'

"Woah..." he couldn't help but muttered after seeing the various weapons inside.

He activated his skill Analysis as he looked at them one-by-one. But actually, he never thought of what weapon he would used.

He had no sword skills or whatsoever as he never really trained. 'Maybe I could used a spear?' He thought after seeing the beuatiful spear not far from where he's standing.

Vince noticed that the grade of the weapons increased as he walked deeper.

But he didn't really want this kind of weapon. In the first place, he's a priest. 'How about a staff? Or should I just get some artifacts for defense?'

As he thought of that, his eyes locked at the accessories from the side. They may look like some jewelries but all of them had some kind of purpose.

Some look extravagant with big stones and sparkling gems which he didn't want. So he focused on simple-looking ones.

'Oh? This one seems good?'

It's a plain gray ring with a simple blue stone in the middle. It looks like a ring that he can find anywhere in the market and buy for 5 dollars.

But the description matched what he's looking for.

[Item: Ring of Salus]

[Description: This ring were blessed by Salus, the embodiment of safety and welfare. Upon activation, the user will be immune to any attacks.]

[Restriction: The immune effect's time will completely depend on the user's energy.]

[Grade: Elite]

After taking it, he wandered around the room until he passed by the second door that Irina was talking about. 'The first door should be the main entrance.'

He thought hard of what weapon should he used. He decided to get a long-ranged weapon since he's really scared of fighting face-to-face with his opponent. It will be nice to hide from afar while attacking.

The most common was bow and laser guns.

Laser guns were the fruit of the continuous research. Since normal guns doesn't really do much damage on monsters coming from the dungeons, the Specialist Federation created this laser guns that immediately became popular not only to players but also to normal civilians who can use guns.

But he would have to trained before he could even use this since the recoil was strong. He'll destroy his shoulders first before he was able to shoot his opponent.

While the bow... he didn't really want to comment on his accuracy.

"It would be nice to have something I can control," he murmured. He didn't want cold weapons since they're for melee battle.

Then his gaze caught something. 'Ah...! Right! Throwing weapons were perfect!'

He almost run towards the section were he saw it. There are various kinds of throwing weapons. Such as darts, needle, a throwing knife, axe, and a shuriken.

He didn't know what to take so he took a few from every kind he liked.

Throwing weapons might seemed harder to used but if he used his divine energy to control them, they'll be like his extra hands, helping him in the battle.

And the most appealing characteristic about these weapons?

Of course that is—

They're free!
