"Woah, my debuffs were actually removed..."
"..."

"This Frost Touch...*sigh* it's going to be a pain to understand as well but its certainly a huge gift, and my healing is tripled, at least for now,"
"???"
"Huh, Glacial Balance was a weapon?" Night said as he proceeded to check its information:
[ Glacial Balance(Bound)(Growth)
Grade: Epic
Level:?
Damage: 500
Requirements: none.
Durability: 500/500
"The weapon is perfectly balanced as all things should be"
A double-edged sword like no other. It is said to have been created by the mysterious being 'Ymir' and blessed by the 'Hephaestus' as a token of acknowledgment.
Durability can be restored when fed with "Ice element", incase durability is full there is a 100% chance the weapon absorbs an "ice element skill" into 'proficiency'
+20% Ice element attacks. +10 cold resistance.
]
"Huh... what's with the growth rates? and doesn't the weapon have practically unlimited durability... I can restore it through ice skills apparently? and the proficiency increases when I'm attacked with ice elements..." he was confused, he did have the weapon mastery skill but he was still unsure as to how to use a double-edged sword.
Although he did frown upon seeing the 'bound' option. Weapons are certainly an important part of any RPG game, with them used as a currency as well as directly using them, this was only natural. However, when a weapon has the 'bound' option it means that once a used equips it, the ownership of the weapon cannot be transferred, the only other options are to either break it down for materials or completely shatter the weapon due to its durability hitting 0. Of course, players could always just use the weapons but one of the biggest reasons they have value is because of their transferability.
For a weapon to have the bound option is certainly sad, although Night didn't plan on selling it, he still felt better if he had the option available.
"Well, whatever, here we go!"
"Equip"
[Condition required to unlock hidden function met!]
[Hidden function unlocked!]
[Requirements for hidden function: Emperor of Frost]
[New option added to weapon 'Glacial Balance': +600 INT]
"..6.."
"..0.."
"..0..."
He said out loud, number by number, it was an astronomical amount, it was equal to growing in 60 level, of course excluding the extra stat bonuses.
His INT was now his highest stat nearing almost 1000, currently, there were less than 10 players who reached level 100, meaning Night's INT was the highest, of course, there was also the possibility that one of the players who reached level 100 was a 'madman' and put all his stat points into INT if he wasn't the first player then the only other way for a person to have an INT of that much was through a weapon or item.
// // //
Almost as if he could hear Night say the word 'madman' Sephiroth tilted his head while looking at the clouds.
The second he looked into the clouds, he was teleported, Sephiroth now stood in front of a man with heavy roman armour, he was fully covered in dark black armour with golden dragons acting as boundaries between the joints, the helmet had a small slit allowing the essential features of the face to be seen, with red fur dropping down from it.
Sephiroth looked at him with eyes filled with hate and rage and growled,
"Mars....."
