🎶 C-C-C- Crafting all night long!~
Oh uh... ahem. Sorry.
I uh... was just going over the weapons... the crafting result was subpar really, so i need to redo the Magic Crystoids ( That's the new term I'm going to use for installed Mana Crystals ). I say in parentheses.
So...I'm working out here at Blossom Field, just messing around with the styles of the Mana crystal placement and their hookup. Thinking about magic thread theory is beneficial, because I remember a few more combinations of stuff that might be useful for some of these items. It's about 9am right now, and boy I'm tired. I even got a few Titles from the recent events.

The effects are as such
• Decreases stamina loss during crafting
• Increases influence over world
• Increases [ Fear ] and [ Hope ] in targets.
Don't got any fucking clue on why that shits in brackets though, or any idea on what increasing " Hope " is... what the fuck?
Answer: Due to the lack of progress in the story over the years, the world is accepting the reality they are stuck in... bringing hope to them will increases productivity of all allied nation's. Fear increases the strength of military force. |
Ahh, your trying to get me to run a country huh? Giving me all those bonuses to it... I see what your up to system. Sigh... I guess I'll check the rankings board. I wonder how it changed recently.

Hey! I'm top 5 in rep! Well... I guess I'm there twice haha. Crimson is technically me... actually, how is he doing now that he's in the ring? I assume...
Player "Crimson" has been assimilated to Player " Cobalt ". |
Huh?
Why? Why are yo-
But I could -
Fuck... that's such a weird thing to feel, the memories that Crimson and I shared, the blanks I felt inside were now filled... and him ending himself feels weird too... it's me but... not.
I guess I'm on my own from here on.... nobody to tell me what's up, but I got my own knowledge to persevere. With My old memories I shall prove myself to the world, and then retire... maybe then I'll finally fulfill this feeling of lethargy inside of me.
Sorry for your loss, Crimson would want you to do exactly that I believe. |
System, you don't need to comfort me that much... dont worry about little ol me. I'll be fine.
You have been marked as a special player, so I must keep an eye on your being at all times. My name is Tangent, and I'm one of the system. I'll be your personal system helper for everything, just to make sure you are progressing normally. |
So the system is finally fed up with my antics?
Absolutely not, it loves your abilities ... but something feels inconsistent in your memories, mind if I scan them? |
Sure, tangent.
So... what's that supposed to mean?
It seems that the memories between Crimson, fake memories, and your saved ones have been mixed slightly, with weird results. |
... Never mind, I was about to say something hypocritical. Continue...
Due to his unique " charmed " circumstance, during his charector creation he was given the " Tragic Villain " inheritance from an unknown source, where after his doom he was promised a better life. |
Your alt account has been given extra attention to the system, such includes the spawning of " Wolf Prince " and " Dice ", also including the becoming of the Ice crusader. |
So, it's all because of the system? I was set up for this kind of life... whatever. I worked for it and the system provided plenty more than asked, it's better like that anyways... but this truly is a power fantasy huh?
Yes, the system thought it would be best for you to experience a power fantasy during your stay here in StarDuster, this it to make up for the lost decades to the charm. I hope you'll be glad to know, that mind manipulating of such a degree is no longer possible to start. |
That's a little too late... but I'm glad. Nobody will have to live that pain from now on... anyways, ahem. That was quite the bit of a tangent don't you think?
Sorry, I thought I'd mention it to you for your clarity of mind. I wouldn't want you having any mental problems due to a weird memory |
I'm not going to question it further.
I'm just going to finish working on these weapons, I got only a hour untill the buyers come here.
" Hand over the Weapons old man! "
Huh?
- " Fuck off kid. "
Naturally, I responded he best way possible to a robes figure brandishing a knife towards me.
" I said, hand it over! "
System?
Gotcha. |
* Crack *
With one word, ice burst out of me... shards of such pinned the robed figure to the ground after knocking it back from a failed lunge at me. Crazy, lunges never seemed to have ever worked on me as sniper despite our inherit disadvantage towards it. I'm carried haha.
- " Ay, what are you trying to do there... brandishing a knife and all that. You should know that the man who can create unique weapons at will would most likely be strapped to the teeth in them huh? "
" I... guess i underestimated a Crafter, wouldn't you let a pretty girl go? "
- " Really?
"..."
- ", Sigh... what's your player I.D.? "
"... I'm uh... not a player? "
- " An NPC who uses the system then? "
"... yeah... "
- " What level? 50? 51? "
" I'm about 59 right now... but it changes often, sometimes I get a burst of XP and sometimes I level down... "
- " What class? "
" Magic Thief... "
- " That's why, you got a combat and a RP class mixed, so you can steal things for XP ... getting caught reduces it. "
" Why are you telling me this? Asking all these questions? "
- " So I can properly restrain you, Magic thief's are notorious for escaping prisons."
" DAMNIT "
- " That's only for the future, if you tell me why you tried to steal from me and how you would try again I'll let you go. "
" well uh... I really wanted to be an Assasin, but my race prevents that type of class for me... so I tried the closest thing as a thief, but I lacked Combat power. I thought I'd steal a strong weapon to make up for it. "
- " Alright, so if I were to give you a second chance to steal from me... how would you do it? "
" I most likely would of just ran up, grabbed the weapons, and ran away. Hopefully I would be able to out run your magic. "
- " Ok, since you answered honestly and you seemed to improve from this. I'll let you go. "
Aha. That's what she thinks... I'm not really going to let her go.
You'll see.
