GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?-Chapter 1879: Half And Half.

After he was done motivating himself, he took off towards the giant. The giant bellowed and swung its sword at him. The sword slashed horizontally in a wide arc in front of the giant. But it missed him because he dropped to his knees.

His momentum made him slide forward between the legs of the giant. He made sure to cut the leg of the giant behind the knee where there was a gap in the armor on his way through its legs.

This made the giant cry out in anger. That leg snapped and buckled. It fell to the ground and brought the giant together with it. freёnovelkiss.com

The giant waved his sword in a wide arc behind him to smash him to pieces. If he had been standing, then he would have been done in. But he had only one hand, so he couldn't stand easily like a normal person. He had to roll, which saved him.

The sword flew above his head. Meanwhile, he rolled to the left side of the giant. It was the side of the giant that wasn't in possession of a sword.

The giant still had an arm, which it used to punch him. He didn't let that happen. He stepped back and used Power Strike. His strength was amplified immensely. It allowed his sword to cut the arm off completely in one smooth strike.

He didn't stay still. The image of the position of the giant flashed in his mind without looking. He made the decision to return to the back of the giant.

The giant had just swung its sword backwards and was recovering from the swing. This left its back up. Taylor stabbed his sword deeply into its neck.

It was as if he was stabbing a tree. His sword hit bone and snapped in half. He rolled away with the half in his hands as the giant bellowed again.

He didn't speak or taunt it. His mind was focused on the matter at hand. He was in the zone, as he liked to call it. Instincts became actions through reflex. He is currently a sword, and swords don't speak.

So he remained silent as he ran around trying to evade the giant. Without a sword, he doesn't have much that can threaten the armored giant. The best he can do is try to remain alive while the giant slowly bleeds out.

The defeat of the giant is already certain. It is losing blood from both its missing arm and lacerated neck. Besides, there was still half of a sword stuck to the back of its neck.

The giant soon became tired. It stumbled and knelt down, unable to rise much less move. It could only heave loudly, producing the sound of a beating drum.

Taylor approached it slowly. He took its large sword that it had dropped on the ground to use it to finish off the giant. But the sword was too heavy for him, and he only had one hand, so he couldn't use all of his strength to carry it.

He eventually gave up on the attempt and stood in front of the dying giant. He didn't get close to it for fear of unexpected danger. He only waited patiently.

The giant eventually died. He returned to the first floor safe and sound. But he was missing a sword.

He thought to himself, "I think it is about time to buy better equipment."

He had been using the training weapon they gave to everyone. The sword was not only of poor quality; it added nothing to his power. He can go and get another training sword for free, but he decided to get something better.

He found the weapons store quickly. The good news was that there were a lot of alternatives. The bad news is that they are very expensive.

The cheapest one was 1,000 training points. It was the reward of a D-rank mission. He has completed many D-rank missions and even a C-rank mission, so this is not something he can't afford. But even his 23,000 training points can't get the best weapon available.

(Name: Razor (level 100))

(Type: Legendary Sword)

(Enhancement: +99 Strength)

(Durability: 10,000/10,000)

(Abilities: Self-repair. Self-cleaning. Binding.)

(Description: A level 100 legendary sword. It is the pinnacle of human craftsmanship.)

It was love at first sight. Razor was the only legendary sword in the shop. It drew his attention immediately. It was thin, shiny, and well designed. There was even a white gem fixed to its pommel. From the other information he saw from the detail listing, the sword was to be light

as a razor.

He whistled appreciatively. "What I wouldn't do to get that."

Its stats were beckoning to him like the sweet voice of a lover. He can already imagine just how powerful he would become with a sword that can add 99 strength to his basic attributes. At his current state, with 5 points in strength, 50 mana boost, common skill, and 70% proficiency in that skill, he can wield a power of 5 x 1.5x2x1.7, which is equal to 25.5.

His mana boost and skill proficiency have increased since he began to do missions, so his strength has doubled. But the legendary sword would increase his power to 94x1.5x2x1.7 to make 479.4. That is an outright boost of 18.8 times. A little more, and it will be 19 times.

He muttered with shining eyes, "I will feel like a god."

Then he took a glance at the price, and his face soured. The light in his eyes died immediately.

He scoffed and said, "It seems this is just going to go like all the women that I have loved at first sight. They only want my money."

It would cost him 10 billion training points to acquire Razor. That information made it so that other pieces of equipment caught his eye. He hadn't looked at them before, but now they are suddenly looking attractive to him.
