My Soulmate Is I (Patreon)

Chapter 45: Equipment Purchase

"These are the treasures I have here. If you have appraisal skills, you'll be able to see how extraordinary these equipments are."

In response to the boss's confident words, I (Yue) looked at the various equipment and weapons on the long table and said only three words.

"They're passable."

"Huh?"

"I mean, I have appraisal skills."

Although it's only Appraisal LV.1, under the influence of the "All Abilities" skill, the information I can appraise is still very detailed. Moreover, I can appraise not only living beings but also weapons and equipment that require Appraisal LV.3.

So, no matter how the boss boasts, all the equipment on the table seems just passable to me.

For example, the slender, approximately thirty-centimeter black staff in my (Yue) right hand.

Black Staff

——INT +100

That's it.

Hmm, that's it, just that.

Essentially, from my (Yue)'s perspective, this staff is actually trash.

Rather, there's a reason why I gave it a passable evaluation.

"I know you're considering our age, so you've brought out equipment that doesn't have equipment conditions, but I hope you don't have to worry too much about that."

That's right, the more powerful the equipment, the more picky the user, so equipment conditions usually show up during appraisal. And the equipment on the table doesn't have this at all.

Obviously, these were deliberately picked out by the boss according to our standards as children.

He has a good heart, but this is not what we want.

If we're going to buy, we should buy better ones.

"Especially for Xue'er, just bring out the best weapons from your shop for her."

Xue'er's exclusive skill allows her to completely ignore the equipment conditions of "steel weapons." In fact, if given a powerful enough weapon, she might even be stronger than me (Yue).

For example, when Xue'er wielded her mother's Purge Demon Sword in the past, she directly knocked down even her father.

Although everyone always thinks my (Yue)'s exclusive skill is the most outrageous, in my opinion, Xue'er's exclusive skill is even more outrageous than mine.

Unlike others who still need to strive to level up, Xue'er is just a world-class sword away from invincibility.

If she could get her hands on an artifact made of "steel," wouldn't Xue'er instantly become even stronger than her mother?

—Although the difficulty of obtaining an artifact is probably greater than striving to surpass her mother in strength.

Anyway, for Xue'er, equipment conditions are meaningless, and the better the weapon, the better.

As for the rest of us—using level as equipment conditions definitely won't work, but if it's based on the quantity of a certain Attribute value, we should all be able to equip some decent equipment, right?

Except for me (Night).

Sorry, I (Night) am just a freeloader, don't mind me.

"I see."

At this point, the boss nodded thoughtfully and then smiled as he pointed towards a wooden door beside the counter.

"Since Miss, you have Appraisal skills, that makes things easier. Please follow me, and then you can choose suitable equipment yourself."

We glanced at each other, then followed the boss into the backyard.

Eventually, with the help of appraisal skills, we quickly selected our own equipment, spending a total of 30 million in gold—of which Xue'er's Diamond Sword accounted for 25 million, while the rest added up to only 5 million.

By the way, the total value of my (Night)'s equipment is only 100,000.

The best equipment, of course, is Xue'er's Diamond Sword.

Diamond Sword

——Sharpness 5000, STR +50%, AGI +50%

Special Attribute: Diamond Unbreakable

——The blade is indestructible

Magic Effect: 300%

Equipment Conditions: AGI 2000

With this sword in hand, Xue'er's Swordsmanship and Sword Skills skills have both risen to LV.20, and all her abilities have increased about tenfold, marking a significant leap in strength.

And that's not all.

"Divine Edge LV.5"

——Condenses up to "skill level × sword technique level × swordsmanship level × 10" mana onto the sword blade, unleashing the most sharp sword strike towards the target.

Learning Condition: Swordsmanship LV.20, Sword Technique LV.20

"Heavy Sword Power LV.5"

——Consumes up to "skill level × sword technique level × swordsmanship level × 10" mana, boosting the strength of both arms and the sword's impact force by "skill level × sword technique level × swordsmanship level × 10%", greatly increasing the weight of the sword.

Learning Condition: Swordsmanship LV.20, Sword Technique LV.20

"Flash Sword"

——An exquisite sword technique created by the Sword Saint Lamir, stepping into the realm of the gods.

——When used, it allows the wielder to ignore the stiff state caused by physical inertia after swinging the sword with full force, driving both arms to swing the blade again at the highest speed.

——Using this skill places a huge burden on the body and brain each time it's used, which is not different based on physical constitution. It is strongly advised not to use it twice within seven days, as there is a risk of death.

Leaving aside other skills, these three skills learned by Xue'er through temporary increases in swordsmanship and sword technique levels via her exclusive skill, and then taught by her mother, have significantly boosted Xue'er's strength.

Although they have strict usage conditions and cannot be used even if learned until the swordsmanship and sword technique levels reach the standard, once the standard is met, they can be used to greatly exceed one's original level. This is precisely the absurdity of Xue'er's exclusive skill, "Steel Protection."

Aside from Xue'er's Diamond Sword, the best equipment is naturally my (Yue)'s Starshine Staff.

This is a two-handed staff with a faint starlight in the dark night color, measuring 150 centimeters in length, taller than my whole person.

But it's very powerful.

Starshine Staff

——INT +30%, Penetration 10%, Penetration 500

Equipment Skill: Magic Shield

——Absorbs 100 mana per second from the owner. When 10,000 mana is absorbed, it generates a magic shield that automatically triggers when in danger.

——Can store up to three.

Equipment Conditions: 1000 INT

Then there's Laphae's Healing Angel.

Healing Angel

——INT +100, INT +10%

Equipment Conditions: INT 200

Finally, there's mine—no need to mention mine.

My weapon is the Black Staff.

After all, I'm just here to fill the numbers.
