Arthur had already gained about 50% of the experience needed to level up to Level 5.
"Reaching the next level shouldn't be that hard now. I'll probably be close to level 6 by the time I leave this sewer." Arthur said to himself before looking at the new weapon. "And this'll be great for the coming few levels…"
The Black Tear Short sword was made out of steel and its blade was quite simple looking. Its handle was wooden with a brown leather grip while at its cross guard there was a design. The design was of a black teardrop.
This was one of the best weapons that could be acquired this early on for free. It was not to say that it was the strongest, as there certainly were others. But they couldn't be obtained for free. They would either have to be bought or obtained through finishing quests.
Whereas the only requirement to obtain the Black Tear Short sword was to explore the sewers enough to find it. And it wasn't even the intended reward of the sewer exploration quest either.
It was merely an item obtained on the way.
Having obtained the Short sword though, Arthur was free to continue onwards.
'I still need to finish the quest.' Arthur thought.
~clack~
But just as he was about to leave the reservoir, his foot hit the skeleton, making its bones scatter.
"Ah, I forgot about this thing—" Before Arthur could move on though, he saw a notification appearing.
