Unique Item (1)
The Queen’s Palace in Allendia was empty.
With the chaos, all the lady-in-waiting had run away or hidden somewhere.
Thanks to that, Han-bin’s group was able to search through the place easily.
“There must be a secret safe over here…”
According to Hollien’s explanation, there was a secret safe behind the bookshelf on the eastern wall of the queen’s 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, but…
“There’s no one to blame for destroying this, is there?”
Han-bin grinned as he lifted his Gigant.
“Easy, easy.”
Boom!
After a while, Ryu Han-bin came out with a big secret safe.
“Found it.”
The safe’s 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.

The devil’s 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.
“Unique items are said to have powers beyond common sense, but they’re not weapons that can cut through the sky and cut through the sea.”
It was just that Latna had all sorts of bizarre abilities that common sense couldn’t achieve.
“In total, there are seven unique items currently known to the world.”
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.
“The Great Earth of the past dealt with the Dragons of Latna using those.”
There were also four unique items with more personal abilities.
[Ring of Drag (Unique Item)
Gives the wearer the ability to change one’s 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 wearer’s possession of Aura, Mana, Prana, and Force into other attributes of the same class.
Effect’s Duration: 1 hour.
Cooldown: 1 day.]

Gives the wearer the ability to become one of the four major Fairy races of Latna temporarily.
Effect’s Duration: 1 day.
Cooldown: 8 days.]
“All of them have no use condition and no limits on the number of uses.”
Ryu Han-bin, while listening to the explanation, made a subtle expression.
“That’s a familiar concept…”
He might know what Omphalos had referred to when making the Guidelines.
‘What kind of paid cash item is that?’
Didn’t those give the user the privilege to change gender, appearance, job, and race?
“Don’t they have server change rights?”
Leon Hart, who, of course, didn’t understand, tilted his head.
“What are you talking about?”
Well, they said they’d 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.
“And eventually, most of them were exterminated by the Top Four.”
Those unique items were then handed over to Garhan, Genovia, and Hollien.
“Huh? What about the Sword King?”
“There’s no way he’d touch the tools of the devil since he was a Valtara warrior. He didn’t even use Latna’s Magic Tools.”
After Leon Hart, Kibie spoke.
“I’ll explain from here on out. I heard more information from Hollien.”

window.pubfuturetag = window.pubfuturetag || [];window.pubfuturetag.push({unit: "663633fa8ebf7442f0652b33", id: "pf-8817-1"}) The Top Three had taken the unique items to study the power of the devil.
They didn’t intend to use those tools.
“It indeed has a great ability, but it’s of little use to the Top Three.”
Everyone was extremely satisfied with their present self.
“What’s the point of changing gender, appearance, or race for those who have a strong ego?”
Like the Polymorph Necklace, they would be useful for others, but it was an individual-specific ability.
“I’d be tempted if it changed me into a Fairy and extended my life expectancy, but my lifespan remained the same.”
It was in the same logic that Artis didn’t 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.
“It only changes the nature of the four-power, but it didn’t 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 won’t have any magic knowledge. He won’t even be able to shoot a Magic Arrow.”
At Kibie’s words, Effir raised a question.
“Then isn’t it useless for the Aliens?”
Rather, Ryu Han-bin, who had played games a lot, easily understood that concept.
“They use their skills by pressing the button. They don’t need any knowledge.”
Still, unique items related to the Dragon race were useful, but there were many disadvantages.
“The ‘Draco Imperium Staff’ can only control one at a time.”
Also, to dominate the Dragon race, they had to subdue their opponents and perform certain rituals first.
It wasn’t just tapping a cane to rule them.
Even if they didn’t bother to do such a thing, the Top Three had already been effectively controlling countless ancient Dragons.
“They don’t have to use the Anti-Dragon Fear Orb at all, either.”
The Top Three could terrorize a Dragon without such a thing.
“The downside of the Polymorph Necklace is that the range is too short. You all know this, right?”
That accessory had an effective range of about 20 meters.
That was why Ryu Han-bin couldn’t help Effir, whom Alejandro used to fly.
“And if the Top Three wanted to turn Dragons into humans, they didn’t need the Polymorph Necklace.”
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 couldn’t bestow such equipment recklessly to their subordinates.
Unique items were taboo among taboos.
It wasn’t possible to inform Latnains of its existence.
“That’s why they gave it to the new Great Earth whenever they are needed.”
Those were useless for the Top Three but were useful for the relatively weak in many ways.
“In the meantime, we got them?”
Ryu Han-bin smiled bitterly at Effir’s necklace.
Kibie nodded.
“Hollien kept them.”
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.
“According to Hollien, there are seven unique items in Latna.”
Suddenly, Ryu Han-bin wondered.
“Wait, what’s a unique item, an object give to a special Earthling favored by the devil?”
So far, many of them had fallen to Latna.
Moreover, Akhtarun’s people were at quite high levels.
“Then isn’t it possible they got a unique item?”
Kibie replied.
“I don’t think so. Unique items have different acquisition conditions.”
* * *
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.
“That’s probably why it’s known as being favored by the devil.”
But the Top Three who had studied the Guidelines for a long time knew the truth.
“The requirement for the acquisition of a unique item is that the total acquisition experience from one of Latna’s six intelligent races exceeds 3 billion.”
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 didn’t 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.
“That’s three billion of experience they’ve collected until it’s taken a form, of course.”
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.
“Similarly, the unique item created when the combined experience of killing humans exceeded 3 billion…”
“Four paid items?”
Artis looked blank in Han-bin’s summary.
“… What’s a paid item?”
“Oh, it’s the privilege to change gender and appearance.”
“Privilege to change the appearance? Well, it’s easier to memorize than the complicated real name.”
Effir asked a question.
“Hey, Kibie. What about the Fairies?”
Seven existing unique items had been created.
“Even if they kill Elves, Nymphs, Dwarves, and Sylphs, they don’t get any unique items?”
“That’s not true.”
The four major Fairy races also had the same conditions.
It was just that…
“The Fairies are small in numbers and introverted. That’s why they couldn’t kill enough to amass three billion experience points.”
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 Latna’s Dragons.
They had intelligence, too.
It was a problem because they had the intelligence of a 3 or 4-year-old kid.
“In addition to the experience of killing a lower level Dragon, three unique items were created.”
However, the Fairies had a total population of less than one-hundredth of the human population, including Elves, Dwarves, Sylphs, and Nymphs.
“The average level is higher than that of humans, but it’s not as high as a dragon.”
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 wasn’t known to the world, and it no longer existed.
Ryu Han-bin clicked his tongue.
“It’s even more amazing that there’s a guy who filled up that much experience. You’re saying they killed only a single race on purpose? Who the hell did they kill to gather that much?”
Kibie’s eyes sank coldly.
“Elves.”
