Is It a Bit Too Much?

Is It a Bit Too Much?

"----"

When he came to his senses, Shien realized he was already standing on solid ground.

"Is this Another World?"

Opening his eyes and taking in the scenery before him, Shien was at a loss.

At this moment, Shien was in the middle of a lush, green forest.

He was surrounded by layers of trees.

Gentle sunlight filtered down from above.

Plants he had never seen before were everywhere.

There was no sound of birds, beasts, or insects, yet the air felt oppressively heavy, as if it were telling Shien, the outsider, that he wasn't welcome here.

"I haven't ended up somewhere incredibly dangerous, have I?"

This was Shien's first impression of this world.

Honestly, Shien was still quite confused.

Although he remembered what had happened to him, being suddenly transported to Another World and dumped in a completely unfamiliar place—knowing nothing beyond common sense and having not even the slightest understanding of this world—it would be impossible not to feel confused.

However, Shien possessed a merit that most people couldn't match.

That was, no matter how unreasonable the situation, he could treat it as an unavoidable fact and quickly accept it.

This was also the reason why, after learning of his fate, Shien was able to accept the facts so readily and agree to the Goddess's request to come to this Another World.

"I don't know if this is because I was this kind of person in my past life, or if it's a mental transformation that occurred after dying once."

Shien muttered this to himself, as if mocking his own nature.

Just then, Shien felt a weight appear in his hand, causing him to instinctively shift his gaze toward it.

At the sight, Shien froze.

In his hand, he didn't know when, a sword had appeared.

It was a sword that was brilliant throughout, radiating an equally brilliant light.

The sword was a greatsword meant for two-handed use. The hilt was gold, with a matching gold gem embedded at the pommel. The blade was dazzlingly white, with flowing light constantly circulating along it, looking exceptionally magnificent.

Looking at this sword, Shien couldn't help but feel stunned by its beauty.

However, while stunned, Shien also felt something strange about the sword.

It was a feeling as if he could merge with the sword in his hand, as if they were one, inseparable.

This sensation even gave Shien a sense of déjà vu, as if he were looking at himself.

What shocked Shien even more was that as he stared at the sword, a message appeared in his mind.

Holy Sword

: Shien.

+100.

skill levels +10.

types of Damage Weakening 99%.

to all negative status effects.

: Highest level.

: Highest scale.

massive damage to evil-natured targets.

purification and expulsion effects against evil-natured powers.

-restricted; cannot be discarded, transferred, destroyed, modified, or interfered with.

"Are you kidding me?"

Shien was dumbfounded.

His intuition told him this sword was incredible.

Although, according to the Goddess, he seemed to be a Hero, and it seemed natural for a Hero to have his own Holy Sword, even so, wasn't this effect a bit too much?

Even if Shien didn't know what level of performance or power this sword held in this world, just looking at those rows of effects, Shien could confidently tell anyone that this was something that absolutely shouldn't exist.

Specifically, if such a weapon appeared in a game, it would likely destroy the game's balance instantly, causing all players to curse the developers to death.

Yet, that wasn't all.

Besides the Holy Sword before him, other messages appeared in Shien's mind.

The messages were divided into two parts—Level and Skills.

This game-like interface made Shien raise an eyebrow.

Then, Shien discovered that he could use his consciousness to freely view the status of these two parts.

Thus, Shien checked his Level status.

What was displayed here seemed to be Shien's current level—"Lv.1".

Well, it was very concise and clear, letting Shien know he was a genuine rookie.

Immediately after, Shien checked his Skill status.

Displayed here were the skills Shien currently possessed and something called "Skill Points."

The Skill Points were displayed as "100," a value Shien didn't know was high or low.

Then there were the skills Shien currently possessed.

For now, Shien only had two skills.

Heaven's Grace

Skill.

"..."

Shien fell into silence.

As before, he felt these two skills were incredible.

Just how incredible, Shien, who had not the slightest understanding of this world, naturally couldn't know.

But, as before, just looking at those rows of effects, this was really a bit too much.

Could it be...

"Does that Goddess want me to defeat the Demon King while I'm still at level one?"

Shien was now seriously suspecting this.

After a rather troubled period of contemplation, Shien decided not to think about it too much for now.

"I'll just take it one step at a time."

After all, even if he wanted to defeat the Demon King, he had to find the Demon King first, right?

Moreover, Shien didn't feel he could actually defeat the Demon King just like that.

If nothing else, Shien didn't even know how to fight yet. Even with a legendary Holy Sword in his hand, he figured he could only swing it around wildly.

Let him defeat the Demon King?

Shien couldn't imagine that scene at all.

Rather, all he could imagine was himself trembling in front of the Demon King.

"Instead of thinking about unrealistic things like defeating the Demon King, I should think about how to get out of this forest first."

Looking around, Shien instantly judged that this place was not somewhere to linger.

Checking the sky, based on the position of the sun, Shien roughly knew what time it was and identified the directions. Finally, he climbed a tall tree to look around for a while, chose a direction, and began to head into the forest, using the Holy Sword in his hand to clear a path.

Shien, in his current state, completely failed to notice a black shadow sweeping across the sky, staring at him as he moved through the forest, its eyes flashing with a fierce light.
