Chapter 124: If I were trustworthy, I wouldn't have ended up like this.

And once the enhancement failed, the occupational weapon would completely shatter, necessitating a rebuild.

For safety's sake, during the enhancement process, this person had spent a fortune on a protection stone, ensuring that even if the enhancement failed, the occupational weapon wouldn't break. However... his wife, wanting to keep her husband from danger and from venturing daily into the secret realm,

took advantage of the moment her husband closed his eyes to pray for the enhancement's success, and stealthily stole the protection stone from the enhancement matrix.

Should the man's occupational weapon enhancement fail, he would no longer have the courage or strength to enter the secret realm.

So—

the enhancement failed, and the occupational weapon shattered.

On the spot, the man died of rage-induced apoplexy.

His only wish was to take his wife with him to the afterlife, for if she loved him so much, she could keep him company in hell.

Well, that seemed reasonable.
