Versatile: Alternate World

975 Digestion Complete

After we got what we came for, we revealed the branch to Queen Tori and Queen Tanya who were still talking.

"We have found the items that are still connected to King Arthur," I revealed as I raised the branch of the Tree of Life before them.

"A branch?" Queen Tanya frowned.

"It's the branch of the Tree of Life. It was one of the things that King Arthur left. I was the one who found it among the trinkets so I managed to hide it from my soldiers and to the officials. Those guys might be tempted to steal and do something unspeakable acts using this alone and there might be trouble brewing if this was shown to the public which is why I hid it. But you said this thing is bound to King Arthur?" Queen Tori inspected the branch.

"The branch is unusable and its blessing effects are not usable if it is being used by someone other than the owner. And even if the owner of the branch throws the branch away or it gets separated from the real owner, it will form an invisible connection to the owner so that the two will be reunited once more."

"I see. Then take it. That thing is a potential trouble bearer anyway and I would've preferred for it to be gone in the relic room. It's one of the things that I would be more happy to dispose of, rather than to keep it," Queen Tori shook her head.

"Are you still thinking about the time when our parents were killed as a result of greed that was due to the blessings of the Tree of Life?" Queen Tanya looked at her sister with a solemn look on her face.

"How could I forget? If not for the fact that the Tree of Life decided to randomly bless our parents, then the greed of some people wouldn't have activated and they wouldn't have been killed by it as a result. I know you have already forgotten or decided to forget about it but I refuse to forget, sis. So please, keep that thing away. I am just gonna be reminded by it anyways."

"Sis..." Queen Tanya felt sad for her sister.

"I think this is enough for the day, Sis. If you guys want to stay here, go ahead. You guys are welcome to stay here in this city as long as you like, you as well sis. If you need help from me on getting your throne back, I will not hesitate to lend a hand as well."

"Don't worry, Queen Tori. Although we appreciate the offer, we will have to go and depart as we will have to trace back the guy. We can stay the night, but we will depart as soon as we can," I answered Queen Tori.

"Me too, Sis. Although I appreciate your concerns and also giving me a chance to regain my throne with your help, I think I am fine. I will be fine on my own for now. Besides, I can't let you busy yourself more than you should be," Queen Tanya patted her shoulder.

Queen Tori sighed but she smiled after. "Alright. Glad that I could offer some help even though I barely did anything aside from allowing you all access to the relic room."

"No, no. This is more than enough, actually. With this branch, we will now have a chance to track them down," Izmir clenches her fist.

Queen Tori nodded and smiled after seeing Izmir's reaction. My guess is that she finds Izmir's behavior similar to hers based on what she revealed to us. earlier. Queen Tanya discussed things with Queen Tori for a while before she left with us. We offered Queen Tori some help in exchange for the branch but she insisted that she didn't need it.

We left after bidding farewell to her but we will stay for one night here before leaving. She then gave us a seal of approval to buy things for free while we were here but we refused to get it. This is a chance for us to spend the gold we have been hoarding for quite a while, we can also get rid of items and things that we don't need while we can also resupply our stocks like food and other utilities.

I also find it rare to see players around and even if there are players, they are more busy finishing a quest and getting out of there, rather than keeping their eye on anything. The reputation of this place is enough to deter the players from staying.

After the long day of resupplying with the girls, the elves immediately went to action as they started fiddling with the new stuff. They are clearly here to find the location of King Arthur as soon as possible.

As for me, I returned to my quarters. I thanked Atlas for his work and for assisting with finding the branch before resting on my bed. It is a long day but it feels like we are now finally close to the final stop of our journey.

I am still relaxing a bit when a notification appeared, notifying me that the digestion of the Versatile Weapon to the weapon of Lust had finally concluded. I was surprised at the fact that the Weapon of Lust would take this long for the Versatile Weapon to digest. It doesn't take that long for the Versatile Weapon to digest it before but now, it seems he slows down in his digestion more.

"Looks like you are finally back, eh?" I talked to the Shadow Dragon.

"[Indeed. It took me quite a while to digest it as I didn't expect absorbing all of the essence of the power of that weapon would be a lot harder than I expected.]"

"Is it because it involves the lewd side and it invokes your feelings or something?" I tilted my head.

"[No. I can handle those fine and I am not that easily influenced by something this minor to begin with. This is just something that is harder to absorb. It was like all of the new weapons that are part of my power would take a lot of time to be digested now. Even now, I am still exhausted.]"

"That means you cannot eat the other weapon for now."

"[For the first time, I will decline eating for now. It left me exhausted from absorbing the Weapon of Lust and I am not liking it one bit. Hold on to that weapon for now, alright? Maybe a few days or so and I might be able to go back to my hunger and eat it.]"

"I see. Then, have a good rest."

"[Thanks. Don't worry, I can still assist you in a fight and devour other weapons but don't let me devour anything related to my powers for now.]"

I nodded in response and the Shadow Dragon went back to his slumber. As for me, I decided to open up the Versatile Weapon and check the new effects. After surveying it, it seems to have changed quite a bit after its digestion. Not only that but the skill exclusive for the Weapon of Lust has been unlocked. The only weird thing is that the unlocked skills are not only one, but two this time around which was weird as mostly, most exclusive skills are only unlocked one by one and this one suddenly unlocks two.

The stats of the Versatile Weapon have also been significantly increased as well which is not a surprise but the jump was big. For a single weapon digested, multiple things have been unlocked in one go. Is this the reason why the Shadow Dragon felt overwhelmed?

Nonetheless, I still checked the new stats of the weapon and its new function.
