“So, what you really need to watch out for is the Silvthril sword. Since you have a soul made of miasma, you’ll be super sensitive to that thing. If it cuts you, you may even die!” Bernice declared while getting a second helping of stew. “You’re a really good cook. Deek never cooks, but I guess that’s because he’s a man. Men can’t cook. That’s a fact.”
“You don’t say…” I sighed with my chin in my hand.
I had gone to question Bernice and find out what she knew about my opponent, but it turned out the quiet champion was just a lie, and underneath was an extremely talkative girl. I wondered if the fake Deek had to put up with this level of annoyance from her. A thought just struck me. What if he had deliberately left her as a means of sabotage! That diabolical bastard!
Well, it wasn’t like all of the information she gave was useless. When I had a mana soul, I had faced a cut with the malcrum dagger. I knew all too well how dangerous and damaging that could be. Now that I had a miasmic soul reconstructed with the power of a dungeon, I imagined this Silvthril sword would be just as damaging.
According to Bernice, the Demon Lord Aberis had gone to a great effort to get that sword made. He had desired to use the sword to conquer dungeons and raise the power to defeat his father. I had to admit that using such a sword would make all things regarding leveling much easier. However, ultimately, I didn’t know if the Demon King possessed a mana or karmic soul. That information would be extremely useful. Well, it wasn’t like I was going to fight him tomorrow. Right now, I had to worry about it’s son.
Yeah, I was shocked about that part too. I never would have guessed that the demon lord who fled south and took over the old Osteria would be the escaped son of the Demon King, who had once also attempted to murder his father. He had been destroyed and then reincarnated through the body of Calypso. Well, I knew the second part of that story. That would make Calypso at least over a hundred years old, maybe even two hundred.
It looked like Demon Lord Aberis had reincarnated a second time when Elaya and Xin had destroyed him and then was reborn in the body of Xin. Xin ended up getting tossed into the dungeon, while Lord Aberis started experimenting with his own dungeons. Then, I stumbled on and destroyed his test dungeon, the Widow’s Dungeon. Whether he was a dungeon builder, or just was playing around with the dungeon, I didn’t know.
I didn’t find it to be a coincidence that this dungeon was making the rare magical metal Orichalcum. He must have been doing some experiments trying to produce magic metals, or should I say mass produce. He had even managed to attract a deep dwarf there. That would be Rubee, who was now in the possession of fake Deek. Well, Bernice said he called her Garnet now.
“Wait, what was that last part?” I had caught something that Bernice had said while she was still speaking.
“Hmm? Oh… yeah, Garnet said that she thought that she might be able to make a pair of magical guns. They’d work like these guns, but they’d use compressed magic instead of bullets.”
I stroked my chin. “Yes… let’s talk about that.”
