Allen couldn't believe what was happening before his eyes, had he just earned a Magic-breaking Longsword worth two hundred thousand Gold Coins so easily?
At first, he thought he might be under an illusion, until the edge of the sword cut his finger, the pain making Allen realize this was definitely not a hallucination.
No Paladin would dislike such a longsword, it was much stronger than the standard-issue longsword Allen had previously received in the army.
Eager to try it out, Allen immediately began swinging the longsword, carefully feeling its balance and other details.
After fumbling with it for quite some time, he finally found the right grip.
But at that moment, Gareth returned, and the Headless Knight gestured Allen over with a crook of his finger, saying, "A new weapon, you need a real battle to get used to it, come on, I'll help you."
Just like before, Gareth put away his armor, but he was no longer unarmed. In his hand was a long knife wrapped in black flames.
