Chapter 269: The Power of Experimentation

The weapons that Giel chose and that were in the stands could be considered "Catalysts." Rare metals, minerals, and monster parts were used to create these weapons. They could conduct mana through them, but that did not negate their strength and sharpness.

If someone gives an ordinary human and a mage each a weapon of rank zero, of course, the mage was much stronger. He would cast a spell along with the Catalyst and overpower the ordinary human. However, if you arm one person with a simple steel sword and the other with a sword made of parts of a monster of rank zero, the result would be obvious. The second man's weapon would easily destroy the first man's sword.

Evan didn't ask any questions. He did not believe that an ordinary man could even wound a monster, it was something unreal to him.

The Ice Mutant attacked. First, he ran toward Giel and swung his clawed paws at him, but Giel was utterly calm.
