My Space-Time System

Chapter 171: Ebony and Ivory.

[It is protected by more arrays than you can imagine. So, you should forget about taking any part of it.] The system burst its bubbles.

"Back to the topic. How do we get out of here?" Castiel reminded them of the reason they were there.

They looked around and saw nothing in the room except for a podium right in front of the gigantic thranium crystal.

"Well, we might as well try that out." Blake walked up to the podium and tried injecting his mana into it, but nothing worked.

(AN: I know you might be wondering why the core is so chilled out even though intruders were standing right in front of it. Well the question will be answered soon.)

Not wasting more time, Blake went straight to the point and brought out the journal. Immediately it was activated, the podium lit up connecting the journal to the core.

The journal's holographic interface popped up showing a message.

[Do you want to open the stasis pod?]

"Nope…" Blake clicked no and began searching for a way to get them out of the facility, but that was when the message popped up again.

"What the fuck!" Blake clicked the 'no' option, but before he could navigate the holographic window, the message popped back again.

"Even on a different planet, pop up's are still fucking annoying." Blake stared at the holographic window with furrowed brows.

He didn't want to activate any stasis pod but seems like the core wasn't giving him an option.

"What do we do now?" Blake asked the system.

[I have a feeling that activating the pod will bring about something bad. For the fact that we are right in front of the core and nothing is happening, means something is wrong.] The system brought their attention to the fact.

[The stasis pod of a thing sounds suspicious, but it's not like we have much of an option. If you don't do it we will die, and if you don't we might still die.] The system said.

"Why do I have the feeling we are about to wake a millennium-old entity." Brian couldn't help but comment because they had seen many movies when the MC or a set of idiot teens set a horror loose.

"Here goes nothing." Blake took in a deep breath and clicked on the 'yes' option.

The first 2 minutes felt like half an hour, but soon a mark appeared on the floor beside the podium, and coming out of the ground was a glass showcase containing a greatsword.

The glass covering opened and right in front of Blake was a great sword that looked quite big for Blake to get a good grip on.

The greatsword had the inscriptions of two vicious wolves on each side of the blade. The inscription on the right side of the greatsword was darkish red in color, while that of the other half had a white glow.

The design of the hilt was the head of 2 wolves and at the bottom of the hilt was a white and darkish red crystal.

[Name: Ebony and Ivory.

Grade: Legendary tier (Peak Epic tier.)

Type: Greatsword (Dual sword.)]

"What the…" When Blake saw the sword's grade, his mind was unable to form thoughts.

"Are you shitting me?" Brian's mouth was wide open as he looked at the sword's info.

"Are you sure these things are still working?" Castiel rubbed his eyes but everything was still the same.

The trio was shocked to the core when their system showed them the grade of the greatsword.

They had all heard tales about legendary grade weapons and as apprentice forgemasters their dream was to get a glimpse of one, but right in front of them was the real deal.

[Abilities:

Disseverance

Cognitive empathy.

Overhaul.

Metamorphosis.

Canine fusion.]

(AN: I went through hell and back to come up with these names :(. Hope you guys like it.)

[Disseverance (Active skill): Ebony and Ivory split into dual blades.]

[Cognitive empathy (Active and passive): Once bonded with the owner, Ebony and Ivory will be able to feel the owner's emotions.

(Passive Skill): Once the owner is sensed to be in battle mode or danger, Ebony and Ivory would appear even if not called.

(Passive skill: Ivory): As the owner's mental faculty increases, so does the powers of Ivory.

(Active skill: Ebony): In and off battle, Ebony is able to feed off the negative emotions of the user and convert them to raw power.

(Active skill: Ivory): When the owner is sensed to be afflicted mentally or in a mental battle, Ivory can assist the owner.]

"Damn!" The trio couldn't help but exclaim as they read it skills.

[Overhaul: If the physical bodies of Ebony and Ivory gets damaged, energy and emotions from the owner would be used to hasten their recovery.]

"That is if it can get damaged." They couldn't imagine what could possibly damage a legendary sword.

They tried to view the other abilities, but they were grey meaning currently unavailable.

"Any thoughts on what it means to be a legendary grade and peak epic grade. Also, why are these 2 kills unavailable?" Blake asked.

[The strength and skills of certain weapons, especially those of such grade sometimes depend on the owner's strength.] The system said. [As for this sword, from the skills it is clear that its strength is dependent on the user and since it isn't bounded to anyone, it is weak.]

"From the skill descriptions, it sounds as if Ebony and Ivory are entities?" Blake asked.

[Actually, they are. Remember the room at the beast floor?" The system's question made them realize that one of their many questions has been answered.

[Exactly. The souls of beasts were used in forging this masterpiece.] The system confirmed their suspicions.

"I wonder what level of beasts were used to craft the sword." Brian thought aloud.

"Not a beast expert but I am sure it's nothing below the emperor level beasts." Castiel.

The three nodded in agreement but the system had a suspicion that it was an ancestral beast.
