However, when Mikhail tried to open the next page it cannot open at all, like some kind of law prohibiting him to do so.
"What now? I cannot open it again!!! Why?" Mikhail frustrated and tried to ask the grimoire.
*TING*
The requirement to open page 2 :
Level up SHADOW SWORD to level 3.
"How do I leveling up the shadow sword?" Mikhail asked the grimoire again curiously with sparkling eyes. Mikhail's soul as an expert gamer begins to stir up. Something like leveling up and rare items are always been interesting in every gamers mind.
*TING*
Kill some opponent using SHADOW SWORD.
Mikhail began to think and analyze the situation again. Even this looks like a game but reality have a big difference with the game.
First, you cannot resurrect or load from save data if you died.
Second, there is no HP bar, so just a little scratch will be enough to hinder your movement and could easily bring you to death.
Three, the most crucial part is to find the opponent that around your level and you could defeat it easily without injury. Since this is not RPG, so your opponent will not show their level above their head like in the game and if you judge wrongly then only death awaits you.
"The giant werewolf is hunting in the forest or the sewer. So my first choice should be one of these two places." Mikhail decides his hunting ground to be same as a giant werewolf but since he already knows its schedule like what time it went hunting so it is easy for Mikhail to avoid the giant werewolf.
"Okay, for now, I should try this shadow sword ability, function, and its limit. I will be finished if it broke when I face some monster." Mikhail tried to summon the shadow sword from the grimoire. Then the jet-black sword full of mystical power shoots out from the grimoire to Mikhail's grip.
Mikhail tried to think the shape of something other than swords like spear, rapier, dagger, whip, or some chain and the shadow sword's form changed to follow Mikhail's mind. Then he tried to form it into ten meters rope but the rope is only two meters, it looks like the length limit right now is only two meters.
Mikhail then tried to change the shadow sword into a ranged weapon like a gun or a crossbow. However, when he changes it to a gun, it cannot shot out the bullet and a crossbow is also the same, it cannot shot an arrow which makes Mikhail quite disappointed.
The shadow sword could only form a melee weapon and a melee weapon wielder must be skillful in using the weapon itself to show its true power.
"If only I learn using some weapon before... Sigh... Well... There is no use in whining about it right now. I should test its power too for now." Mikhail then tried to slash the shadow sword to a pole nearby. The sword sliced the pole in two cleanly without any resistance like slicing a tofu.
"Damn... This weapon is awesome... As strong as a legendary sword. No, maybe this is the legendary sword feels like." Mikhail proclaimed in surprised. Then Mikhail tried to change it into two meters thin rapier and slice some building nearby. It was the same as before the shadow sword slice them apart so easily making Mikhail laughing in satisfaction.
"Then... How about a form like a pair of the wing to fly?" Mikhail tried to change shadow sword into a cloak and then tried to add a pair of wing on his back but it looks like the shadow sword cannot form a wing at all.
"Sigh... What a pity... So it could only change into a melee weapon." Mikhail sighed in disappointment.
*TING*
Shadow sword could only form an animated object at level 10.
"Eh... It really could form a pair of a wing? No, not only a wing but all animated object?" Mikhail surprised and smile in satisfaction. It's already a gamer's habit's to leveling up and gained the new ability and looks like it is the same now.
Then Mikhail gets some inspiration.
"How about forming an impossible item like some robotic cat's item from the future? Anywhere door?" Mikhail smiled jokingly and tried it.
*TING*
The level requirement of SHADOW SWORD is insufficient to form that.
"SH*T.... IT REALLY COULD DO THAT LATER ON?" Mikhail almost went insane when he saw that.
