Chapter 742: Spoils of War

Translator: Dess Editor: EbonyFrost

Kieran picked up the two Special ranked skill books.

[Sharp Weapon, Special Heavy Arms]!

[Sharp Weapon, Dual Wield Heavy Arms]!

...

[Discovered skill book: Sharp Weapon, Special Heavy Arms]

[Detected skill Sharp Weapon, Heavy Arms, prerequisite met, learn?]

“Yes!”

Kieran gave a sure answer to the notification since he didn’t mind making himself more well balanced in terms of strength.

[Skill learned, Sharp Weapon, Special Heavy Arms]

[Name: Sharp Weapon, Special Heavy Arms (Basic)]

[Related Attributes: Strength, Agility, Constitution]

[Skill Type: Offense]

[Effect: You know how to utilize specialized heavy arms such as a morning star to fight, increase damage by 10%]

[Consume: Stamina]

[Prerequisite: Sharp Weapon, Heavy Arms]

[Remark: You only know the basic way of wielding special heavy arms.]

...

Similar to [Sharp Weapon, Special Heavy Arms], Kieran learned [Sharp Weapons, Dual Wield Heavy Arms] as well.

[Name: Sharp Weapon, Dual Wield Heavy Arms (Basic)]

[Related Attributes: Strength, Agility, Constitution]

[Skill Type: Offense]

[Effect: You know how to dual wield a set of heavy arms, Stamina consumption +150%, Agility -4]

[Consume: Stamina]

[Prerequisite: Sharp Weapon, Heavy Arms]

[Remark: A fierce way of attacking will surely result in a higher consumption of stamina]

...

“Not bad!” Kieran commented on the two Special skills.

The former allowed him to have more choices in selecting weapons and the latter enriched his methods of fighting against his enemies.

Of course, that wasn’t all of it.

The Ourin father and Calga each contributed a Rare rank equipment as well.

[Name: Ourin’s Glare]

[Type: ETC]

[Rarity: Rare]

[Attribute: 1.Ourin’s Coercion, 2. Ourin’s Sanction]

[Effect: None]

[Prerequisite: Spirit A]

[Able to bring out of dungeon: Yes]

[Remark: This is a half-completed legacy item but it didn’t stop people from fearing it]

...

[Ourin’s Coercion: A single target within sight has to undergo a Spirit and Intuition authentication not lower than B. Target will suffer a Powerful mental attack when failed, 2/day]

[Ourin’s Sanction: After Ourcin’s Coercion is cast, when a second target is locked onto within 1 minute, Spirit and Intuition authentication will have to be higher than A.]

...

It was a blurry sculpture the size of a palm. Kieran then placed it into his bag.

Then, he headed towards the last Rare item at the scene.

Two giant morning star maces connected by the chain was glowing in orange.

[Name: Calga’s Crush]

[Type: Weapon]

[Rarity: Rare]

[Attack: Powerful]

[Attribute: 1. Calga’s Strength, 2. Calga’s Rage]

[Effect: None]

[Prerequisite: Strength A+, Sharp Weapon, Special Heavy Arms (Master)]

[Able to bring out of dungeon: Yes]

[Remark: This is a weapon that was forged over a half-completed legacy item. The forging was crude and only suited those with superhuman strength.

...

[Calga’s Strength: Targets hit by the morning star will have to undergo a Strength authentication with the wielder. When the target’s strength is lower than the wielder, the target will suffer a Strong power blow and increase Calga’s Crush by 1]

[Calga’s Rage: Hurl out the second morning star with raging power, the wielder will be grated +3 Strength buff during activation, 2/day]

...

The attributes revealed themselves when Kieran took up this special weapon.

Just like the description had mentioned, [Calga’s Crush] was only suitable for those with immense strength and the stronger the wielder, the better it could be utilized.

Yet because of the limitations of the prerequisites, Kieran couldn’t use it yet but it didn’t stop him from taking it with him.

The friars of Dandon saw what Kieran did but none of them said anything.

To the Dandon Church who admired displays of strength, the rights to their respective spoils of war on the battlefield was sacred and inviolable, they wouldn’t allow anyone else to have a hand in it. Moreover, other than Kieran, they couldn’t think of a second candidate that could wield such an extravagant and heavy weapon within Edland City.

When Kieran hung the chain that tied the two morning stars together on his body, he felt his body sink down a little.

He still had [Elmerius Sword] on his back which was also heavy by itself.

After overlaying the two weapons that required Kieran’s current maximum Strength value, although there wasn’t any negative debuff, it consumed his Stamina quicker.

However, the others around him didn’t know that. All they saw was Kieran easily pick up [Calga’s Crush] and head towards Sister Liz quickly.

The cheers and praises sounded again, especially Sister Grittel who was behind Sister Liz, her eyes were emitting layers of unusual brilliance.

To the young sister who was deeply affected by Dandon’s creed, Kieran who displayed the grand and powerful feature of a man had an irresistible charm about him.

“Sir 2567, as for the distribution of the rest of the spoils of war, I’ll have the men deliver it to Augen Manor after calculations,” Sister Liz said.

Sister Liz didn’t notice her student’s changes after winning the Holy War once.

“En. I hope we’ll have a better and closer cooperation in the future!”

Kieran nodded and stated a phrase with double meanings.

“Of course!” The elder sister nodded right away since she knew what Kieran was hinting at.

Both of them exchanged a tacit gaze before Kieran parted with them.

He wasn’t worried about Dandon playing petty tricks on calculating the spoils of war.

Aside from the fact that Kieran and Dandon were on the same side now, bound together for the good and the bad, the most valuable items from Ourin were already on Kieran’s shoulders.

The Ourin Church didn’t have the so-called legacy or inheritance skills because they were different from the other churches who existed before the three great wars. Ourin only came into the scene at the end of the war era.

The reason Ourin was established was due to the courageous acts and power of the Ourin Knight back in the day plus they were also one of the means for the Saint Relic Association to counter Elder Council.

He had to admit such means were very effective.

At least, following the rise of some new churches, the Saint Relic Association slowly repealed their disadvantages on the battlefield and gained a seemingly satisfactory result.

It was because Kieran understood that part of the history, it gave birth to the thought of rebuilding the Griffin Church and using it to enter the Saint Relic Association to get greater benefits for himself.

After all, since the association had compromised once before, there ought to be a second time.

Especially now where all the Twenty Hounds of the Elder Council had gathered in Edland City.

Still, the reaction time from the association still surprised Kieran.
