"This sword costs 500 Tier 1 DS. Since you're selling your sword, you only need to pay 280 Tier 1 DS," the blacksmith said. 

"Give me a pair of daggers as well, same material," Krune said in response. He didn't try to use any other sword because he had gotten accustomed to using the Whale Tooth Sword and Daggers for the past 18 plus years. Thus, he didn't wish to change them. 

Besides, he didn't wish to buy any superior weapon of the sort. First of all, a four-star weapon ranged in the thousands. He didn't have that much money with him. Sure, if he took some missions or did any of the work available in the capital, he would be able to accumulate enough money soon enough. 

Then again, he didn't wish to waste his time doing that. Once he was done with his tasks, he wished to head into Layer 2 right away. After all, by lacking time, he meant his lifespan. He was looking at the mirror during the years. 

Of course, he knew that he was aging. Sooner or later, he would start to become an old man, and his physique would start regressing. He had to leave the Sub-Realm before his lifespan ended. That way, he could commit suicide and revive immediately as a youth. 

Though, if he delayed and lost his life in the Sub-Realm, everything he had gained would be lost. Even though he wouldn't die, since one of his Little Krune fragments was in the God Realm, he didn't wish for all the time he had spent here to go to waste. 

Moreover, he realized that the powers he obtained here would be of tremendous use once he left the Sub-Realm and regained his cultivator powers. Having talked with Gehen, Krune changed his plans. Before, he planned to spend some time sightseeing while waiting for a Checkpoint Turtle to arrive. 

But now, he wished to obtain abilities that would suit him the best once he arrived back on the God Realm. He would love that.

After paying 400 Tier 1 DS to the blacksmith, Krune exited the Blacksmith Guild, clearly able to hear the sighs of everyone once he left. It was apparent that they were tense upon meeting someone of his caliber in the place. After all, the only other person on that level was Gehen, their Emperor. 

And, coming across the Emperor or someone equal was nerve-wracking to the general populace. After all, even if they were ex-cultivators, they had completely adapted to the place. So, they were nervous while he was within their sight. 

After he left, the blacksmith that had transacted with Krune slumped on a chair, drinking a glass of water as he sighed, muttering, "So that was King Krune."

"How strong is he, dad?" Rikka, his daughter, peeked out from nearby as she asked, "I thought he was a monster at first."

"He's…strong," the blacksmith said before looking at the Whale Tooth Sword and Daggers before him, his eyes glinting as he shouted, "The lot of you, look at these before me. They were the items used by King Krune."

He then laughed as he took the three items with him and left the place, "You guys are my eyewitnesses. I'm going to auction these in the Auction House."

Hearing the blacksmith's words, some of the customers muttered, "He's going to auction them? No matter their quality, they were the personal weapons of King Krune."

"None of the other nine Kings have left anything behind."

"Those three weapons have tremendous value."

One after another, the group of customers scurried off the Blacksmith Guild in a frenzy, leaving the place vacant within a couple of minutes. Seeing the large crowd that had exited the Blacksmith Guild all of a sudden, the people on the streets were startled. 

When they inquired about the reason, their eyes glinted upon knowing the information. Soon, news spread as thousands of people converged at the auction house. The three items had created quite the chaos, and in the end, it was purchased by the Auction Guild Master because he had a tendency to collect exotic items. He had spent a whopping 40,000 Tier 1 DS for the Whale Tooth Sword alone. 

As for the Whale Tooth Daggers, they were each purchased by the Mercenary Guild Head and the Trading Guild Head for a sum of 36,000 Tier 1 DS each. Immediately, they had broken the record of the highest price ever bid in the auction. 

This was the price only because things had just been established, and the money in the hands of the rich wasn't much. Had it been a couple of decades later, the price would have easily reached the millions. 

It was all because Krune hadn't realized his actual worth as an active ability user, a human sharing the same status as a Supreme Monster, the peak of their world. 

Unaware of the chaos he had created, Krune was whistling as he surfed through the streets, trying out some delicacies along the way, content on selling the three items for 250 Tier 1 DS, thinking, 'They are old anyway.'

He then held the Sonic Radar Sword that he had bought, nodding in praise as he muttered, "This is many times better. I probably won't need to worry about a weapon for another decade with this. From now on, this is my new Whale Tooth Sword."

He also named the two daggers Whale Tooth Daggers, smiling as he visited every guild along his way, soon arriving at an inn as he booked a room. He booked for five days since it was a cheap inn and cost three Tier 1 DS for five days.

Unloading his backpack, Krune gazed at the five Tier 3 Development Spheres he had received from Gehen, muttering to himself, "A year's worth of training per sphere, huh."

Without any hesitation, he swallowed one Tier 3 Development Sphere, noticing it emit energy the moment it reached his belly and was acted upon by his digestive fluid. The energy instantly placed him in a state of deep concentration as his muscles began to faintly vibrate.

The degree of vibration was minute, but it had completely loosened up his muscles, causing him to enter a state similar to wet cement. Krune then lifted up his Whale Tooth Sword, taking a stance as he aimed, swinging once as his eyes widened in shock. 

He instantly noticed the difference. His body was rapidly adapting to whatever action he did. Upon realizing that he needed to go all out in order to make the most out of it, Krune hurriedly grabbed his backpack and jumped out of the window, summoning his Cloud Whale around himself. 

The Cloud Whale created air currents around itself and sped through the air, heading straight towards the capital, causing everyone in the streets to exclaim. Krune immediately arrived at the palace as Gehen had already arrived at the entrance, smiling upon seeing his plight as he pointed towards an open area in the palace, telling him, "Treat it as your training ground. Go all out. I had created it for my use."

"Thank you," Krune said as he placed his backpack on one side as arrived at the center of the training ground, taking in a deep breath as he entered a stance. Immediately, the thumping of a heart resounded while the sounds of ocean waves continued to increase in magnitude. 

The sounds of the heart thumping and the ocean waves soon spilled out of the palace walls and reached the streets, causing the populace to unanimously look in the direction of the palace, wondering what was up. 

On top of that, it was late evening as it was starting to get dark. 

In the palace's training ground, Krune finished taking in a deep breath as his eyes shot open.

Passive Ability—Ocean Heart!

Passive Ability—Neon Radiance King!

Immediately, there was a fluctuation around him before a pillar of light manifested, boring into the clouds, increasing in girth to the extent it brightened up the entire capital, causing everyone to look at it in panic, almost alarmed. 

"Isn't that…Neon Radiance?" one of the people exclaimed.

"But why is it this powerful?"

There was chaos in the entire capital while the other cities were also able to see the pillar of light that reached the clouds, wondering just what was up. 

As for Krune, he was completely focused, hearing the sounds of his heartbeat while looking at the image of a crimson ring being highlighted in his mind. There were still four other rings, all inactive at present. 

'What if…?' Krune thought as he took a second Development Sphere, hearing the shouts of panic from Gehen, "Don't waste it like that. Every Tier 3 Development Sphere is precious. It's not useful if taken in the same day."

Krune didn't mind his shouts, immediately swallowing the second Tier 3 Development Sphere as he could feel his stomach acids churning to digest it. And in his mind, followed by numerous hesitant flickers, the second crimson ring activated, causing the influx of energy circulating through his body to double. 

Instantly, the pillar of light he emitted doubled in girth and intensity, causing shouts of alarm from the populace. As for Gehen, he looked at the scene with part anxiety but mostly excitement, "This guy…hahaha!"

Passive Ability—Sonic Radar!

His throat constantly vibrated, emitting an inaudible sound wave that coursed through the palace, soon spreading into the capital before a quarter of the capital was perfectly highlighted in his view. 

Krune smiled, taking in the third Tier 3 Development Sphere. Immediately, the Neon Radiance pillar increased in size once again while causing the capital to be as bright as day. Those that tried to look at the pillar of light were almost blinded by the intensity. 

Passive Ability—Frozen Blood!

The pillar of light turned white instantly as it began to emit freezing cold. A layer of ice began to form everywhere, including the people and the palace walls. 

Upon seeing the situation, Krune hurriedly swallowed the fourth Tier 3 Development Sphere, causing the pillar of white to expand in size as the freezing effect further intensified as wind began to blow as a result. In his mind, four crimson rings had been activated. 

Passive Ability—Moving Ripple!

Instantly, ripples formed on the pillar of white, preventing the freezing effect from spilling out any longer. Nevertheless, the air coming into contact with it still began to freeze as a thick pillar of ice formed in the air, reaching the clouds. 

Krune then swallowed the final Tier 3 Development Sphere, noticing the fifth and final crimson ring in his mind activate, creating a synergistic effect as something mystical occurred in his body.

Active Ability—Cloud Whale!
