― Khahaha, khahaha, khahaha!

― Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill!

The moment I touched the red dagger, voices pierced my mind.

At the same time, I was struck by a wave of dizziness.

Nausea and disgust welled up within me.

It was a kind of residue.

‘……It must be because the Bloodlust is still lingering.’

An aura of Bloodlust, similar yet different from my own.

Even though only remnants of its original power remained, the dagger induced auditory and visual hallucinations.

At the same time, I realized the exact method of using this dagger and its capabilities.

Perhaps it was due to the imbued Bloodlust.

The red dagger displayed more power the more blood it absorbed.

Therefore, although it was an ordinary dagger, it possessed the extraordinary power of excellent craftsmanship.

Although it was information I wouldn't normally know, the illusion that briefly flashed through my mind gave me a glimpse of how to use the dagger.

Swish-.

I picked up the dropped red dagger and lightly pricked my ring finger.

Then, the drop of blood that formed on the tip of my ring finger began to float in the air.

Soon after.

Thud-.

The blood drop, floating in the air, shot out and pierced the dormitory wall.

It didn't seem like a big deal because the hole was the width of a speck of dust.

However, it was incredibly deep.

It wasn't wide because the droplet was small, but it succeeded in penetrating the wall deeply with its outstanding penetration power.

This was the ability of the red dagger.

It was designed to exert powerful force using the owner's blood as a medium.

There would be a downside of having to transfuse my blood every time I used it, but bleeding during battle was common.

Thus, having mastered the use of the red dagger, I opened my mouth slightly.

‘It's definitely not a weapon that loses to the Fang of Darkness.’

It could be considered on par with the Fang of Darkness for now.

The difference was.

― Prove it, prove it!

― I hate confinement, hate it, hate it!

The red dagger hasn't revealed its full power yet.

The thoughts that were asleep inside the dagger were demanding something from me.

……Of course, I didn't know what they were demanding.

I wondered if it was related to the location where I got the bracelet Ares gave me.

Both the bracelet and the dagger were relics of his friend.

Of course, the potion was different, but still.

Anyway,

"I'm satisfied."

I smiled, lifting the corners of my mouth.

Although the hallucinations and voices ringing in my head were annoying, they were at a tolerable level.

The reason I dropped the dagger earlier was because it was so sudden.

……Really.

As if I would drop a dagger because I was scared.

I was just flustered.

Swish-.

So, I sheathed the red dagger.

As soon as the red dagger left my hand and went into my bosom, the hallucinations and voices that were ringing in my head faded away and eventually disappeared.

‘I've obtained a useful weapon.’

I was just wondering how I was going to get a new weapon.

I don't know the exact performance yet, so I'll decide after trying it out.

If it shows similar efficiency to the Fang of Darkness, it wouldn't be bad to use ‘dual swords’.

It would take time to adapt to the new fighting style, but it would allow me to exert even more power.

It was a shame to throw away the Fang of Darkness, which had good synergy with the Darkness attribute.

These were not the only advantages of the red dagger.

"Mr. Samuel, can you hear the sound coming from the dagger?"

[……No, I can't hear it. It seems like it only spoke to you.]

That meant that the red dagger was a unique equipped artifact.

Ares also couldn't draw out the power contained in this dagger, so he readily gave it to me, even though it was a relic of his friend.

Anyway,

‘All that's left is to test it.’

I suddenly wondered how powerful my new dagger was.

Because I couldn't figure it out just by looking at it.

Today's Idea's practical exam.

There will be a chance to use my dagger there.
