Act like a Fool, Shines like a Star!

Chapter 11: Special Case.

Lavi check on Mari progress. He knows that since she's been blessed by Althea. She's going to do just fine and going to learn it really fast. And it's been 3 hours since Lavi sold everything that he kills on the Overlord Caves. And now, Lavi have a lot of money. At least 300 Royal Platinum Coins that the Guild will pay over the course of 3 days. Because, Guild didn't have that amount of coins laying around everyday.

So they want to wait for the Guild Banks to give them the money and then they can give Lavi the rest of it. So, With that being said. Lavi doesn't have to worry about money anymore.

He arrived at the Blacksmith where Mari is. There's a dwarf. But not as a teacher. As her students. Lavi just blurted his breath out when seeing that.

'How can Mari teaching a dwarf how to forge weapons?! I don't know! But I guess it's a good thing.'

"Hey Mari. Is everything alright?"

"Lavi. Yes. Everything is alright. I feel like I'm ready to forge your new weapons."

Lavi was shocked.

"That's really fast... But I guess that's the blessing huh. Well, Here is the Marked Ore."

The Dwarf keep working on his stuff while Mari check on Lavi ore. Lavi take out 3 Giant ore. It's so light that one big chunks weight roughly 100 Gram.

'It's definitely lighter than Mithril. But I don't know the hardness. If it can be harder and sharper than My Silver Annihilation. That Ore must've been really good. My Silver Annihilation is made out of White Mithril.'

Lavi thought. And the method of Mari making weapons is very special. First she just make a quick blueprint of Lavi original Silver Annihilation.

'Compress. Model. Forge.'

Step by step, Mari compress the 3 ore into one. Making a giant 300 Gram Marked ore. And then, She model it perfectly like Lavi Silver Annihilation. And then, She forge the actual sword. It took her 30 Minutes to forge the actual sword.

And then, Mari model a handle made out of Black Dragon Scale. And she paint it the same color as the Original Silver Annihilation.

"It's all done."

Mari said. She's not even look tired. It seems like she have a big mana pool to continue working on the weapon.

With Mari holding it, It doesn't do anything. And then, Mari hold it to Lavi. Lavi pick the handle up. And then, His left hand reacted to that Sword. the Dwarf look over and see Lavi. Both Lavi and Mari immediately kneeled.

The Marked shine bright. And then, The New Silver Annihilation was born. The color is not Monochrome anymore. It's Bluish Silver. Same as Lavi aura.

"I did it!"

Lavi was amazed by the sword quality. He take his Original Silver Annihilation and put it in his Storage.

"Good Job Mari. Keep up the good work. I will tell others about your work. So, Get ready to a busy day. Tomorrow is going to be busy."

Lavi give Mari 1 Royal Platinum coin so that she can stay here for a while. Mari bowed toward Lavi and say her thanks.

Lavi is still holding his sword. He is so excited to try it out that he didn't put it in his scabbard. Lavi use stealth and go toward a really calm forest. There's no Red Aura around. So Lavi didn't have to kill things.

Lavi look at the sword. It's a perfect weight for Lavi sword. And just by moving it up and down left and right. The New Silver Annihilation is making a cutting noise. It's really pleasant to hear.

Lavi put his sword in his scabbard. And then he took it out again. And it let out a really satisfying sound. Lavi smiled big like a kid who got a new toy he always wanted.

He went to a tree trunk that's at least 90 CM in Diameter. Lavi take his stance. He swing his sword slowly. Almost with no power at all. And it went through like a hot knife through butter, Smooth. Lavi cut a bit of it and he took it off.

Lavi touch the blade. He try to cut himself to see the sharpness. But it doesn't seem to be working. It's almost like it become dull.

"I see... So it's an anti measure huh. Marked Ore can't hit Mark Bearer. Interesting."

Lavi muttered. He smiled big. He want to try how it's when he buff it up. But Lavi hold back and didn't do that.

He activate stealth and went back to his Inn. He sees that Gwen and Riri is looking really lonely. They were touching themselves while Calling for Lavi name. Lavi was embarrassed when seeing that.

He de-activate his Stealth and his body is revealed. He was sitting on the Window Frame.

"Hey. I'm back from my 1 week expedition."

Both of them turn around. They realize that Lavi has been sitting there for a long time. And they were still touching themselves.

They went red and cover themselves up. Lavi stood up and said.

"Come on now. Give me a better welcome."

He take off his robe and change his entire clothes into a plain shirt with shorts.

His swords also vanished. Gwen and Riri look at each other. They immediately hug Lavi without wearing any pants.

Lavi hug them both tightly. It's been a week since Lavi have any contact with them. It's not like Gwen can't contact him or anything. She just don't want to get in Lavi work. Gwen immediately asked.

 "So, What's the results?"

"Sis. I want to borrow your sword for a bit."

Gwen took out her sword and give it to Lavi. He put it in his Storage.

"Why?"

Gwen asked. Lavi took out his new sword and give it to Gwen. The sword Reacted the same way. But the color change as well. But the form isn't. It's now a Light Blue colored. A bit different from Lavi, But not that much.

Gwen instantly recognize how much different the sword is. The balance is on the handle and the blade is light and sharp.

Gwen felt sick just handling it. But she wants her own now.

"Lavi. I want my own too."

Gwen said with serious look. Lavi smiled.

"That's exactly what I want to do."

Lavi take his sword again and put it in his Storage.

"Buu... I can't use it..."

Riri have tried to handle it but, It doesn't react to her. So she just accepted the fact that she's not Althea Descendant.

Now that he got Gwen sword. He need 8 other sword. And Brendon Sword is really complicated. So Lavi call the one person that he can rely on when it comes to picking stuff up. It's the Sage, Pixel Xaphier.

"Pixel~ Can I have a bit of your time?"

Lavi asked. Pixel immediately replied.

"Yes. What can I do for you?"

"I want you to collect everyone but Gwen and my Sword. I want to make a better one."

Lavi said. Pixel immediately replied.

"Understood. Please give me a second."

Pixel decided to call everyone first to let them know that He's coming. And Pixel, With his usual high efficiency, He grab everyone swords and he understand that the blacksmith wanted the model in the paper as well so that they can copy the same feature. So he also asked for that.

Everyone have their own Blueprint when they design their own swords. So it's easier to copy. Pixel store 8 Swords including himself in his Magic storage. Including 8 Blueprints.

Usually, They only need the blueprints. But Mari want to make it perfectly. She want people to only notice the difference that it's just stronger. She want everyone to use the same sword that they already familiar with.

Pixel arrived in their room. Pixel see Riri and she bowed. Lavi and Gwen already introduce Riri to them. But it's the first time Pixel see her.

Pixel shrug his shoulder and said 'Good luck.' To her. And he gives everyone swords to Lavi.

"Also Lavi. Can I try your sword for a bit?"

Pixel asked. Lavi nodded. Lavi grab his sword and give it to Pixel. The color changes into deep blue. Pixel have the same reaction as Gwen. He was disgusted by how strong the sword feels. But he want it as well. It's easier to think that everyone probably feel the same way.

"Anyway. Thank you for the try. I will wait until my sword is ready. If they're ready, Contact me. I will take all of them back to everyone."

Pixel said with smile on his face. Lavi smiled back and said.

"Thank you Pixel. I know I could count on you."

Pixel Teleported away from the inn. Now that Lavi have everything, He will be quite busy tomorrow as well to supervise the making of everyone new swords.

And eventually, the exciting days come. Pixel forgot what he supposed to do and grab everyone along for the ride. So Lavi give everyone their own weapon again and they went to Mari new workspace.

The Dwarf is the owner. And he's an apprentice of Mari.

"Mari. I brought the others with me."

Lavi said. Mari and the Dwarf kneeled toward them. Lavi took out 10 Kilograms of Marked Ore and leave everyone to their preference. Bianca help Mari sort everything out and Mari started working.

Swords after swords, Mari efficiency grew. At first, she took 30 Minutes. And then, It turn into 25. 20, 15. And the fastest she make it is 12 Minutes. And she averaged around 15 Minutes. But Brendon swords is hard. So it took her 30 Minutes to make.

Everyone was disgusted how similar yet stronger feeling. They store it away because they were scared that if they swing it, The whole building is going to collapse.

Everyone pay their share to Mari and they left. Mari now have a good source of income working at smithy.

Everyone went back to their works. Pixel and Luke is still on the look out of the Cult.

'They're aware that us 10 Harbingers is moving again. So the faker is actually disappear. But we know that all the fakers is actually a cultist. So we're not worried about the faker. We're more worried about the Cultist.'

Lavi gulped.

'In this 2 years. If we didn't stop them. The Demon God will rises and there's going to be 2 thing that happened. 1st, We won and kill the demon god. 2nd, We all died and we go to heaven. That's the 2 choices we have. We need to stop them before the Demon God rises.'

Lavi thought. Lavi and Gwen go back to their inn. Riri is still in school. Her education is great and everyone started to respect sword more and more because Riri just destroyed them in competition.

While Gwen is sleeping. Lavi is thinking. Although he's not as smart as Bianca. He can still think quite smart.

After he spend some time thinking, He stopped because he's bored. He decided to have fun with his new sword.

Lavi go to the Guild in order to search for new dungeon he can farm in. He found this interesting Dungeon called the Mother's Basement.

And the Guild want him to subjugate a Monster called Broodmother. It's a spider as the name suggested. And Lavi hate Spiders.

It's not the hate that he's afraid of it. He just want to kill every spider he see. And that's due to spider is generally annoy the crap out of him. They always appear in the bad timing. Some time when Lavi is taking shower, A tarantula showed up.

It's that kind of moment that make Lavi hate them so much.

Lavi take that high ranking quest because no one want to even deal with small spiders. And now the guild want them to face a big spider? No. No one wanted that. Except Spider Hunter Lavi.

He take the quest and went to the dungeon. He arrived at an abandoned mansion right outside the wall of Euriana Kingdom. It's so abandoned that Lavi can see spiderwebs around the whole house and the whole forest.

'Well, No wonder no one wants to come here. I can see bunch of venomous spiders just in the web.'

Lavi thought. There's a bunch of it crawling around the trees, the ground, the webs. Every where. Lavi started to feel disgusted as well. He want Leon to come and just blast this spider into smithereens.

Lavi take out his sword. Lavi take a deep breath and crouched.

"Let's see how well it combined with my quick draw."

Lavi muttered. He instantly draw the sword and swing it vertically. And then, He sheathe it again. Suddenly. A really big gust of wind cut every thing on it's way. The Webs was sliced. The ground was split. The spiders was cut in half.

Lavi look at his sword and grinned. He immediately jumped to the abandoned mansion. It's just a fast flick using his wrist. Not full powered yet. Lavi want to know how strong it's actually is. So he went inside the Abandoned mansion and cut everything on his way.

He try to not cut the building down because it's going to let more spiders out. There's a bunch of big spiders crawl out the floor. And it's big. As big as a carriage.

Lavi gently went past through them. He sheathe his sword back in and the spiders was cut into pieces. Lavi see the stairs leading down. And there's a broken door to the side. Suddenly, A wraith comes out.

Lavi jumped back and use his Air walk to flip around and kill his momentum.

"Why is a high leveled spirit in here?"

Lavi was confused. The Dungeon supposed to be a spider dungeon. Not Undead.

"Is this is a possible Double Dungeon? Then this Abandoned Mansion should be the Dungeon for the Undead. And the Basement is for the Spiders. Interesting. It's the first time I saw this. And Probably the last time I do this."

Lavi take his mask out and put it on.

'Serene Mind.'

Lavi enhance his mind and he leaped in a really fast speed. Lavi cold sword cut the Spirit into half.

'CQC Magic... Holy Blades.'

Lavi sword was covered by a holy light that's effective to kill Undead. Lavi went up the stairs to see what's more. And as he expected. There's Zombie, Skeleton, Ghoul crawling, And Spirits Flying.

'Nope. I don't want to fight them. They're f*****g smells like rotten meat. Well, They're rotten.'

Lavi went downstairs and reach the actual Mother Basement. Lavi open the steel cage and see nothing. There's only giant egg laying around.

Lavi use his Aura Read. He notices something evil on the ceiling. The Broodmother was ready to ambushed Lavi. She jumped down and crushed Lavi with her abdomen.

Lavi kick her on the abdomen and send her flying. He sheathe his sword again and quickdraw it. A flying s***h sliced the Broodmother into two. A green liquid splashed around the abdomen. Lavi jumped out and dodge that disgusting liquid.

And That Green Liquid broke all the giant eggs that laying around the floor. A bunch more Broodmother babies appear.

'Oh well. Babies are babies.'

Lavi jumped over them and grab the corpse of the Broodmother. He went back to the gates and get chased by the broodmothers.

'Iron Strikes.'

Lavi was done with them. So he destroyed the whole Mother Basement and kill everything inside of it. But it's not in ruin. Dungeon is auto repaired. So things will get normal again.

Lavi can explore the top floors. But he doesn't really want to because it's not his job. More importantly.

"I can scare Riri for later. And she will ask me for help and she will cling to me. Yup. That plan sounds nice."

Lavi have a really rotten plan to get Riri close to him. Even though it's more effective just asking her with nice smile.

'But damn. This sword is damn fine. I can cut a boss monster in one quickdraw. That's never happened before. If I have to rate this sword. It's sharper than my Original Combined with Absolute sharpness 10. It's disgusting.'

Lavi thought.

'Probably one of the reason why everyone felt disgusted when holding this is that. They never actually feel how it felt to hold a really sharp sword because only I have Absolute Sharpness. And the sharpness quality suddenly jumped 100+ Fold. So everyone is disgusted by it.'

And that reasoning is correct. Everyone is never holding Lavi Absolute Sharpness Sword. And they're not used to holding that sword.

But for Lavi who are living for really sharp sword. This is a blessing for him. He can do something cool that he never thought he get to do before. And that's Flying s***h. It's only possible when the Sword itself managed to slice the space itself.

And Marked Ore is capable of recreating that sort of feeling. So it's a damn fine sword.

Lavi went back to the guild with his mask on and he give the Broodmother corpse to them. Everyone vomited in their place from the horrible stench and the disgusting look.

Lavi just smirked seeing them suffer from this.

"S-Sir... This is this payment... Please wait for 2 more days for the rest of your payment..."

Even the worker there was horrified by the horridness. Lavi leave with happy face because he's clean and smell nice.

Lavi went back to his inn and see that Gwen is brushing her hair and Riri is doing her homework.

"I'm back. Did something good happened?"

Lavi asked. Gwen and Riri shake their head.

"Not really."

Riri replied. Lavi get curious on what Riri homework look like. And then he saw a bunch of numbers.

Riri easily went past through the math question. While Lavi who just looking mumbled.

"189133925891324089182124938258294682903509125132"

Gwen and Riri hear that and see that Lavi brain is malfunctioning. Riri close her books and Lavi went back.

"Oh my god what happened? I suddenly blacked out!"

Lavi said with serious face. Riri and Gwen laughed. Riri open her book again. Lavi brain went malfunction again. But this time. It's different.

"Chili pepper cracked spider fish shark"

Lavi started saying weird things like that. Riri close her books. Lavi once again.

"What the f**k?! Is that book cursed or something? I don't know."

Lavi turned around. He can hear the girls chuckling. Lavi get pissed and he pick Riri up. He take her to the bed and push her down.

"You think this is funny huh?!"

Lavi recognize Riri fetish. Riri blushed and she just melt down. Gwen shake her head and said.

"Lavi. It's not good to treat her like that you know? So, Let me teach you how to treat lady the correct way~" 

Lavi also realize Gwen Fetish. Both of them are the polar opposite. So it's hard when they have to do a group one because Lavi have to change his personality 180 degree.

And for the rest of it. Gwen teach Lavi the way to treat lady. As well as satisfying Riri fetish. In the end, Lavi got to satisfy both his lovers fetish. It's tiring but worth it.
