Unique Item (1)
The Queenâs Palace in Allendia was empty.
With the chaos, all the lady-in-waiting had run away or hidden somewhere.
Thanks to that, Han-binâs group was able to search through the place easily.
âThere must be a secret safe over hereâŚâ
According to Hollienâs explanation, there was a secret safe behind the bookshelf on the eastern wall of the queenâs library.
Currently, they had to break down the magic seal according to the set order and enter the full password to open the secret door, butâŚ
âThereâs no one to blame for destroying this, is there?â
Han-bin grinned as he lifted his Gigant.
âEasy, easy.â
Boom!
After a while, Ryu Han-bin came out with a big secret safe.
âFound it.â
The safeâs contents poured out as soon as he cut it out using Blade Aura.
Among some of the miscellaneous documents and fancy accessories was a plain-looking belt made of leather.
His Guideline revealed the identity of the item.

In addition to common magic tools and artifacts, there were special items called unique items on the Latna continent.
The devilâs tool, which was specially given to the Aliens favored by Omphalos, was capable of invoking even a child regardless of level.
More than 30 years ago, the existence of that unique item was known to the world.
Great Earth, the worst Alien group that aimed for the Wind Goddess, Preleu, used that unique item to disrupt the continent.
That was all the knowledge that Artis and Effir had.
But the Church of Darkness knew more.
Leon Hart explained.
âUnique items are said to have powers beyond common sense, but theyâre not weapons that can cut through the sky and cut through the sea.â
It was just that Latna had all sorts of bizarre abilities that common sense couldnât achieve.
âIn total, there are seven unique items currently known to the world.â
Among them, there were three related to the Dragon race.
One was the Polymorph necklace of Effir.
Another was the Draco Imperium Staff, which gave the user the authority to control Dragons, and the Anti-Dragon Fear Orb, which could make the Dragons run away in fear.
âThe Great Earth of the past dealt with the Dragons of Latna using those.â
There were also four unique items with more personal abilities.
[Ring of Drag (Unique Item)
Gives the wearer the ability to change oneâs gender. It is maintained while wearing the ring.]
[Customization Bracelet (Unique Item)
The wearer is given the ability to change their appearance within the scope of the race freely. The new look is maintained while wearing the bracelet.]
[Four-power Conversion Belt (unique item)
Gives the wearer the ability to temporarily convert the wearerâs possession of Aura, Mana, Prana, and Force into other attributes of the same class.
Effectâs Duration: 1 hour.
Cooldown: 1 day.]
[Spieces Change Pendant (Unique Item)
Gives the wearer the ability to become one of the four major Fairy races of Latna temporarily.
Effectâs Duration: 1 day.
Cooldown: 8 days.]
âAll of them have no use condition and no limits on the number of uses.â
Ryu Han-bin, while listening to the explanation, made a subtle expression.
âThatâs a familiar conceptâŚâ
He might know what Omphalos had referred to when making the Guidelines.
âWhat kind of paid cash item is that?â
Didnât those give the user the privilege to change gender, appearance, job, and race?
âDonât they have server change rights?â
Leon Hart, who, of course, didnât understand, tilted his head.
âWhat are you talking about?â
Well, they said theyâd send Aliens back to Earth if they killed the Goddess, so it could be the right to change the server.
Great Earth had committed all sorts of evil using those unique items.
They changed their appearance, gender, and race, falsely harassed the Latnains, and slaughtered the people by dominating the ancient dragons.
âAnd eventually, most of them were exterminated by the Top Four.â
Those unique items were then handed over to Garhan, Genovia, and Hollien.
âHuh? What about the Sword King?â
âThereâs no way heâd touch the tools of the devil since he was a Valtara warrior. He didnât even use Latnaâs Magic Tools.â
After Leon Hart, Kibie spoke.
âIâll explain from here on out. I heard more information from Hollien.â
* * *
The Top Three had taken the unique items to study the power of the devil.
They didnât intend to use those tools.
âIt indeed has a great ability, but itâs of little use to the Top Three.â
Everyone was extremely satisfied with their present self.
âWhatâs the point of changing gender, appearance, or race for those who have a strong ego?â
Like the Polymorph Necklace, they would be useful for others, but it was an individual-specific ability.
âIâd be tempted if it changed me into a Fairy and extended my life expectancy, but my lifespan remained the same.â
It was in the same logic that Artis didnât age like humans, although he pretended to be human.
The same was true of the Four-power Conversion Belt.
In comparison, it was the right to change jobs, not that it could change jobs.
âIt only changes the nature of the four-power, but it didnât change your mind. If the Aura of a warrior who has mastered and used Aura all his life suddenly disappears, what would he do if Mana took that place? He wonât have any magic knowledge. He wonât even be able to shoot a Magic Arrow.â
At Kibieâs words, Effir raised a question.
âThen isnât it useless for the Aliens?â
Rather, Ryu Han-bin, who had played games a lot, easily understood that concept.
âThey use their skills by pressing the button. They donât need any knowledge.â
Still, unique items related to the Dragon race were useful, but there were many disadvantages.
âThe âDraco Imperium Staffâ can only control one at a time.â
Also, to dominate the Dragon race, they had to subdue their opponents and perform certain rituals first.
It wasnât just tapping a cane to rule them.
Even if they didnât bother to do such a thing, the Top Three had already been effectively controlling countless ancient Dragons.
âThey donât have to use the Anti-Dragon Fear Orb at all, either.â
The Top Three could terrorize a Dragon without such a thing.
âThe downside of the Polymorph Necklace is that the range is too short. You all know this, right?â
That accessory had an effective range of about 20 meters.
That was why Ryu Han-bin couldnât help Effir, whom Alejandro used to fly.
âAnd if the Top Three wanted to turn Dragons into humans, they didnât need the Polymorph Necklace.â
They could subdue a Dragon with one shot and ask.
-Do you want to die or turn yourself into a human being?
In many ways, those items were useless to the absolute beings.
However, they couldnât bestow such equipment recklessly to their subordinates.
Unique items were taboo among taboos.
It wasnât possible to inform Latnains of its existence.
âThatâs why they gave it to the new Great Earth whenever they are needed.â
Those were useless for the Top Three but were useful for the relatively weak in many ways.
âIn the meantime, we got them?â
Ryu Han-bin smiled bitterly at Effirâs necklace.
Kibie nodded.
âHollien kept them.â
The Top Three had shared the unique items.
The Thunder King took the Anti-Dragon Fear Orb and the Customization Bracelet.
The Archmage took the Draco Imperium Staff, the Ring of Drag, and the Species Change Pendant.
The Transcendental took the Polymorph necklace and the Four-Power Conversion Belt.
âAccording to Hollien, there are seven unique items in Latna.â
Suddenly, Ryu Han-bin wondered.
âWait, whatâs a unique item, an object give to a special Earthling favored by the devil?â
So far, many of them had fallen to Latna.
Moreover, Akhtarunâs people were at quite high levels.
âThen isnât it possible they got a unique item?â
Kibie replied.
âI donât think so. Unique items have different acquisition conditions.â
* * *
As Aliens worked hard to raise their level and enjoyed pleasure killing, a message popped up at some point.
[Congratulations! You have met the hidden reward conditions!]
And unique items fell out of the air.
That was how the people who fell into Latna acquired unique items.
It was just like when Ryu Han-bin had got a basic weapon, the Long Sword, in the Rocky Mountain.
Aliens had no idea what they had done well.
âThatâs probably why itâs known as being favored by the devil.â
But the Top Three who had studied the Guidelines for a long time knew the truth.
âThe requirement for the acquisition of a unique item is that the total acquisition experience from one of Latnaâs six intelligent races exceeds 3 billion.â
It seemed that the quest was achieved like a game on the surface, and the item was given as a reward, but there was a far darker reason behind it.
Reality didnât produce results without cause.
To gain the special reward called a unique item, then it had to be based on special materials.
The upright masters of Latna were commanded by the six Goddesses, unlike the other creatures and native monsters.
It was the ingredients of unique items that enriched the pure vitality of those intelligent races.
âThatâs three billion of experience theyâve collected until itâs taken a form, of course.â
The unique items that were gained when the total number of experience points from killing Dragons exceeded 3 billion were the Polymorph Necklace, Draco Imperium staff, and Anti-Dragon Fear Orb.
âSimilarly, the unique item created when the combined experience of killing humans exceeded 3 billionâŚâ
âFour paid items?â
Artis looked blank in Han-binâs summary.
â⌠Whatâs a paid item?â
âOh, itâs the privilege to change gender and appearance.â
âPrivilege to change the appearance? Well, itâs easier to memorize than the complicated real name.â
Effir asked a question.
âHey, Kibie. What about the Fairies?â
Seven existing unique items had been created.
âEven if they kill Elves, Nymphs, Dwarves, and Sylphs, they donât get any unique items?â
âThatâs not true.â
The four major Fairy races also had the same conditions.
It was just thatâŚ
âThe Fairies are small in numbers and introverted. Thatâs why they couldnât kill enough to amass three billion experience points.â
Humans spread throughout the Latna continent.
They had overwhelming numbers and strong people at all levels.
A lot could be targeted with such a large population, allowing four unique items to be created.
The dragon race was small in numbers, but the average individual level was high. The amount of experience they got from killing just one of them was enormous.
In addition to dragons, other native monsters such as Wyverns, Drakes, and Hydras were considered Latnaâs Dragons.
They had intelligence, too.
It was a problem because they had the intelligence of a 3 or 4-year-old kid.
âIn addition to the experience of killing a lower level Dragon, three unique items were created.â
However, the Fairies had a total population of less than one-hundredth of the human population, including Elves, Dwarves, Sylphs, and Nymphs.
âThe average level is higher than that of humans, but itâs not as high as a dragon.â
It was said that only one unique item had been made so far, which was equivalent to the killing of Fairies because it was such a hard race to find.
Even though it wasnât known to the world, and it no longer existed.
Ryu Han-bin clicked his tongue.
âItâs even more amazing that thereâs a guy who filled up that much experience. Youâre saying they killed only a single race on purpose? Who the hell did they kill to gather that much?â
Kibieâs eyes sank coldly.
âElves.â
