Beast of Gold

Legendary weapons, in Hero's legacy these weapons were the strongest of their type. And it wasn't only because of their power, it was because of their egos.

Weapon egos are created in weapons that have fought in legendary battle or wielded by warriors of legend.

Even Owen's weapon, the holy sword Caliburn holds the soul of the archangel Micheal as its ego.

Gae Bulg too is a legendary weapon but now it's slumbering, and would take Dyre a while to wake his spear ego up.

The armor surrounded Dyre and when the helmet placed itself on his head everything went black.

Dyre stood there in the black void the floor he was standing on was made of millions of gold coins, and after looking around this realm it appeared before him. 

The golden devourer, the personification of Midas' hunger for gold. It took the shape of a massive golden beast that stood on all fours and had a massive gaping mouth.

A mindless beast that only knows hunger, Dyre took a deep breath while the beast roared, shaking the realm around them.

Dyre looked the beast in the eyes. "Hi Buddy!" Dyre said while smiling. to claim the armor as their own the player character would slay the beast, but this was a real world not a game.

So Dyre wanted to try a more peaceful manor, Dyre slowly approached the gold devourer.

"huh, you don't have a name do you?" The beast roared "Okay what about a name?"

Dyre thought about a name while standing still, because he didn't have to worry about being attacked. The golden beast only attacked when the player character did. Its power lied in counter attacking and taking blows and dealing it back, but it had to be attacked first to start the fight.

So the beast just stood there snarling, roaring, and baring its fangs but stayed in the same place it appeared.

"King?" Dyre said looking at the beast trying to see if he liked it, the beast just roared.

"Okay, a little too generic your right, How about Richard?" the beast just growled at Dyre.

"That's a better reaction so let's put that name on the maybe list, oh how about Caesar?"

Dyre continued offering names to the gluttonous beast, soon the beast stopped and watched as the boy Suggested a name and the beast shot it down. Then Dyre suggested a name that made the Beast freeze.

"Samson?" the boy said after hundreds of names.

Samson the first king of Cadariar, a mighty and powerful ruler who freed his kingdom with his own two hands. It was a strong and noble name, even the beast knew the greatness of that name.

The beast watched the boy smile at him. And wondered when was the last time somebody smiled in its presence. Not since Its creator Midas, had it felt wanted.

The beast closed its eyes then started glowing in a golden and radiant light and after the light dimmed, appeared Samson, unlike before where he was a living breathing golden monster. Now stood a giant golden lion with donkey-like ears.

"I'm taking this as a good sign. Samson, I'm going down a difficult path, and I'm going to need you and this armor. And I promise with me you'll have enough gold to choke yourself with."

Samson sat down and bowed his head, Dyre laughed "happy to have you with me buddy!"

He said as he placed his hand on Samson's head. Then Dyre awoke in the library of pride wearing the armor.

As he looked around and took off the helmet, he had noticed that the armor had changed. It was still golden in color, but now on the helmet there was Dark brown mane and the gauntlets of the armor now had claws.

"Samson awoke huh?" Legendary weapons like Gae Bolg could awaken into a more powerful form.

But in the game you had to kill the golden devourer you would gain the armor, but It would not awaken.

"Thank you Samson." he said excitedly, but then he thought about The power of the armor and wondered if he could check the armor's power.

 [Golden Beast Armor]

 [The beast that lives in this armor has been unleashed]

 [+ 2000 hp_+30 vitality_+40 defense_+ 40 Resistance]

"Wow!" He was surprised that the golden beast armor had risen to a completely different level of power.

"Way to go Samson" then another pane appeared before him.

[You have awoken the Golden Beast Armor you have gained the Golden Beast defensive arts]

"Really way to go buddy!" Dyre said excited when you would awaken a weapons ego you would gain their fighting arts.

Dyre decided to look at his status window.

"Okay not a bad start." Dyre said hopeful, even with all this power, skills and stats he was not certain about his fate at the progeny war.

He would be fighting future bosses, even though they would be inexperienced, did not mean they would not be powerful.

Then the door burst open revealing Lilith grabbing Beelzebub by the ear, she had grabbed him when Dyre had passed out wearing the armor. Lilith, seeing that Dyre had awoken, ran to her son.

Lilith hugged Dyre, Beelzebub seeing this scene was about to roll their eyes until he saw the changes of the armor.

"How? Did the armor awaken? How are you alive?" Lilith raised an eyebrow to the last thing the King of Gluttony.

"You knew this would happen?" Lilith said as she started boiling with rage.

"Of Course i did. Nobody survived Midas' armor, so how did you do it?" Beelzebub said disinterested in Lilith's bluff looking at Dyre.

Lilith grabbed Beelzebub by the throat and screamed "You knew this would happen?!".

"Oh what, did you forget he's human, who gives a damn if he dies." The room was quiet and Lilith just stood there staring at Beelzebub.

"Just a human, huh?" Lilith said as she started to tighten her grip around The Lord of the Flies'

Throat.

Beelzebub at first held a sly grin until Lilith did not stop, she would not stop. Lilith asked Beelzebub a question.

"Do you remember what happened the last time a Demon King looked down on a human?" Lilith said as Beelzebub tried to struggle out of Lilith's death grip.

Then the Unnamed appeared grabbing Lilith's arm. "Do you think this is a good idea Lilith?"

Lilith turned to the Unnamed "I don't know? Do you think it's a good idea to harm another's child in said parents' home?"

Lilith breathed out and dropped the lord of Flies and continued. "I know I've been lax with the borders of my ring but truly now that I have something to protect, I will need a day's notice. So you will now leave." 

Lilith commanded the other Kings of Hell, and as soon as the order was said They both disappeared. But Beelzebub had some parting words for Dyre clutching his throat.

"See you at the Proginie Tournament."
