6. Weapons

I couldn’t believe it. A wooden club cost ten points?

(The math doesn’t add up at all! If a wooden club costs 20 Wood, then how come the wooden bench in the Furniture tab only needed 10 Wood?)

A bench was clearly much bigger than a simple club. Material-wise, it made zero sense. Bigger, more substantial things should cost more resources. So why was the pricing completely backwards like this?

But then, as I viewed the equipment in full detail, I finally understood why.

(Sorry, System. I may have been too harsh on you after all!)

Obviously, these weren’t ordinary items.

The rarity might be total trash at F-tier, but every single one of them provided extra stat boosts and useful skills. The system was charging a premium for the hidden value.

That aside, one particular skill caught my attention: [Crafting (F)] from the wooden hammer.

So, in other words, one could learn skills simply by holding the right item?

Did that mean… if I somehow acquired a sword with a ridiculous skill like “Dragon God of Destruction Sword Art” or something equally overpowered, I could instantly use that Dragon God of Destruction Sword Art without ever needing to train, practice, or learn it beforehand?

That made my gamer instincts tingle for a moment.

I didn’t know how other weapons worked in this world, but at least my weapons from the System seemed quite incredible!

Once I upgraded the shop and gained access to better items, I might even unlock some truly broken skills. Who knew what kind of insane abilities waited further down the line?
