Chapter 13
"Dumba.s.s! Didn't I tell you to limit the amount of time you play that game? How will you able to control yourself when I leave next week?"
"Sarah clam down. By the time you leave, I will-"
"Why do you look sick? This is what you get for staying in that d.a.m.n pod for such a long time!"
"Don't worry about that, I'll be fine."
"Who will take of you when you get sick? Get a hold of yourself. Mom and dad aren't here to look after us anymore."
"You don't need to worry. I will get this under control. You just focus on getting ready for the elite high school you got into to. Besides I won't be here alone, grandma is here too."
After hearing those words, Sarah calmed down, but she still left the room with an angry face. James sighed when he saw that, but he still got ready for dinner. After dinner, James went to bed early. After work the next day, he logged back into the game.
After logging back in, Sirius walked towards the professors lab.
"There you are Sirius, I have the items that you requested. Here is a box filled with common grade daggers, and he is the daggers mastery skill book."
"Thank you for getting me these items, where they hard
"It wasn't much trouble to get the daggers, but the skill book took a little more effort. You were lucky that this skill book was cheap, or I would have not done it. But I am curious, why do you want to learn dagger mastery skill book even though you are a mage? And why daggers, it is easy to get into the beginner level, but it is much harder to reach higher levels in it, compared to other weapons?
"Even though mages have unimaginable strength at higher tiers, but we are the weakest cla.s.s in the apprentice level, so it is better to have a weapon to fight with early on then to depend on spells. As for daggers, it easy to keep them hidden, and can be used as a trump card."
Sirius then went to his room taking the box of daggers with him and used inspection on them. All the daggers were low grade and didn't have any special effects. Then...
Item Name: Rusty Dagger
Grade: Common
Description: A rusty dagger made of normal iron.
A special feature has been found, remaking dagger.
The dagger then started to glow. The rust disappeared, and the dagger turned into a silver color. Small blue colored runes appeared on the edges of the dagger. Sirius then used inspection to re-evaluate the dagger.
Item Name: High Quality Iron Dagger

Effect 1: When mana is poured into it, sharpness increases by 10% for one minute
Effect 2: When mana is poured into it, strength increases by 5% for 30 seconds.
'So that's what happens when a unknown effect is found. It completely changed the dagger! This will definitely be useful in the forest. Might as well use this skill book now'
Sirius then used the skill book. He then checked his skill menu to see if anything changed.

"Are you ready to go to the dark forest?", asked the professor as he walked into Sirius's room.
