The Sword became noticeably sharper and slightly longer in Raven's grasp. As he examined it, he couldn't help but feel that something else had changed about the weapon. It was as if the Sword was devouring something from the snake, transferring its essence into Raven's body.
A series of notifications flashed before Raven's eyes, each one indicating a significant increase in his attributes:
[Strength +1]
[Strength +1]
[Strength +1]
[Strength +1]
[Strength +1]
[Strength +1]
[Speed +1]
...
The power gained from the snake's essence coursed through him, invigorating his body and mind. It was a welcome surprise, as if the Sword had unlocked a new ability—stealth.
Raven realized that with each cut of his sword, he could steal the enemy's stats. Although the increase was small, granting only one point per second until the enemy perished, it was a valuable advantage in battle.
