Chapter 65 …
Before heading out to the hunting ground, the very first thing Dohyun checked was none other than Cheonbyeon
It was an artifact of Kashyar—the one said to have slaughtered the mythic gods—and compared to such a grand title, its shabby appearance felt unbelievably unbalanced.
‘Yeah… even so, it’s an artifact. There has to be something hidden.’
There was no way this worn-out staff alone could truly be a divine relic.
He simply couldn’t shake that thought.
The moment he checked Cheonbyeon’s information, Dohyun’s eyes widened in pure shock—so much so that even he was surprised at himself.
Cheonbyeon
Grade: Mythic <Hero>
Description:
A weapon imbued with the authority of Martial Emperor Kashyar.
Known as both the War God and the Battle God, it is said he could wield and create thousands of weapons.
Equip Restriction: Successor of Kashyar
Physical Attack: 190–201
Durability: 100 / 100
Weapon Devour:
Can devour weapons. Can transform into devoured weapons and use their special options.
If a weapon of the same type is stored, the previously stored weapon is expelled.
Ego:
Responds to its master’s call. Those unqualified cannot use the special options.
The user’s level is too low to use its full authority.
Abilities have been adjusted to match the user’s level.
Transformed weapon attack power is adjusted based on Cheonbyeon’s grade.
‘…What?’
It was a name he could hardly believe even while staring straight at it.
‘There was a grade called Mythic?’
As far as Dohyun knew, no such grade existed.
He had spent three full years grinding through Demrock and cleared most content, yet the highest grade had always been Legendary.
The same was true in God of All Seasons.
Even the top-ranked players were fully geared in Legendary equipment—never once had anyone mentioned obtaining something of Mythic grade.
Naturally so, since God of All Seasons had borrowed its grade system from Demrock.
‘Is it because of the new god system? Or the main quest?’
It could be one of them.
Or both.
But that wasn’t what mattered right now.
‘This is insane.’
What mattered was that he had just obtained the only Mythic-grade weapon in God of All Seasons.
Out of a billion players.
If this fact became known, he couldn’t even imagine the shockwave.
Not just the top ten guilds—every player would target him.
Even Legendary weapons already possessed astronomical value due to their rarity and power.
A Mythic grade?
That was practically the holy sword of the game.
‘I knew it wouldn’t be ordinary… but this much?’
Even the weapons of mythic gods like Heracles or Odin were powerful enough that most players couldn’t even dream of obtaining them.
But even those only reached Legendary grade.
They had never created an entirely new tier.
And even those weapons weren’t easily handed to their apostles.
Only after overcoming brutal odds and trials could one barely obtain them.
‘Compared to that… me?’
What about Dohyun?
He just met Kashyar once… and passed.
One wrong word and he could have lost everything—
Yet the fact remained: with a single conversation, he obtained a Mythic-grade relic.
‘Ah… so she was truly a benevolent goddess. This lowly successor dared to doubt her…’
His faith, which had been scraping rock bottom, surged instantly.
A street punk?
How could that be an insult toward someone generous enough to casually hand over such a priceless weapon!
From now on, Kashyar was a holy sage and the law itself to Dohyun.
‘Well, of course. She handed over her authority, after all.’
Other mythic gods might also have hidden Mythic-grade items.
But Dohyun was certain Cheonbyeon was unique.
Cheonbyeon contained true authority.
There was no way unsealed gods would hand their authority to apostles.
Although it boasted the best performance and attack power among items he had obtained so far—
Right now, it didn’t quite feel Mythic.
No, even Legendary felt like too much.
‘More like Hero-tier.’
In fact, the grade window literally showed “Hero” in parentheses next to Mythic.
It seemed the seal would unlock according to the user’s level.
‘So it’s a growth-type item…’
Technically sealed, but the concept was similar.
Which meant—
Dohyun had just secured a lifelong weapon.
‘At this level, it’s top-tier among Hero grade.’
Judging by its performance within the same tier, it would likely remain top-tier even when it reached Hero+ or Legendary.
For Dohyun’s current situation, this couldn’t be better.
Since transformed weapon attack scaled with Cheonbyeon’s grade, the weapon itself—not what it devoured—was the key.
‘It’s a bit disappointing that Weapon Devour actually consumes the item…’
If it had simply copied and stored data like copy-paste, he would have swept the auction house clean.
And only one weapon per type could be stored…
To fully utilize it, he’d need many different weapons.
He grinned.
But it didn’t matter.
‘Good thing I didn’t sell them just in case.’
He still had numerous weapon types.
Various weapons he had saved for Weapon Master were now sparkling inside his inventory.
After devouring all the weapons in his inventory and arriving at the hunting ground—
Dohyun’s face was more excited than ever after confirming Cheonbyeon’s performance.
‘This is seriously insane.’
The issue wasn’t just transforming into multiple weapons.
Cheonbyeon’s true power was that it could transform anytime, in any situation.
While swinging.
While clashing.
Even mid-throw.
That ability was beyond imagination.
‘With just this, the number of mind games I can play multiplies several times.’
Kaiser already possessed many techniques that gave him a psychological edge.
Add Cheonbyeon on top of that?
‘I can’t…’
He truly couldn’t imagine losing.
Dozens of combat scenarios were already flashing through his mind.
And this was the power of a sealed relic…
What would happen once all seals were lifted and it reached true Mythic grade?
He swallowed.
Honestly, Cheonbyeon’s power was already proven.
But what Dohyun liked most was something else.
– Ego: Responds to its master’s call. Those unqualified cannot use the special options.
The second special option.
This was the true finishing touch of Cheonbyeon.
Not only could only Dohyun properly wield it—
But the fact that it responded to its master needed no further explanation.
‘…I’m sold.’
Retrieving thrown weapons would be easy.
Used well, it enabled feints and surprise attacks.
But most importantly—
‘This is cool as hell. Seriously.’
It carried that childhood fantasy that stirred every man’s heart.
At this moment, Dohyun envied neither Thor nor Iron Man.
Whirl—thud.
Spin—catch.
“Ha!”
Just as he was repeatedly throwing and recalling Cheonbyeon in pure delight—
“…What is that? Is that even possible? It’s like Thor’s hammer…”
“Wait, didn’t his weapon keep changing? Am I seeing things?”
“…Yeah. Is that a weapon option?”
“No way. A trait…? No, maybe a unique ability?”
“What kind of unique ability is that?”
“Then what the hell is it?”
The surrounding whispers made Dohyun pause.
When he glanced around—
The players who made eye contact quickly looked away.
They pretended not to notice, but their clustered bodies still faced him.
‘…What is this, Animal Crossing or something.’
Seeing reactions like this again oddly reminded him of Charlie.
With a small chuckle, Dohyun grabbed Cheonbyeon again.
‘Yeah… that was a bit flashy.’
Understandable.
Even he would stare if someone wielded such a cool weapon.
…Though from their perspective, everything had just been shocking.
Normally he would have wrapped it up here.
But not today.
‘Still a lot to test.’
He had only checked Karuk’s upper armor knockback option and Cheonbyeon.
There were still many things left—including the S-rank graduation rewards.
Not to mention—
He still had to kill a thousand monsters.
Dohyun was far too busy to leave now.
He smirked.
‘Let’s start by taking down about a hundred.’
Thus began the massacre in the once-peaceful(?) Fishy Rock Forest.
* * *
How much time had passed since he began hunting in earnest?
[Level Up!]
[Dagger proficiency increased.]
[Dagger proficiency reached LV7.]
…
[Double-edged axe proficiency reached LV5.]
“Oho?”
Several hours in, Dohyun stopped at the notification.
Around him lay piles of orc corpses and blood.
More than ten orcs were visible nearby alone.
A number most players couldn’t handle even in parties—
Dohyun had wiped out solo.
“Three levels already.”
Perhaps because of that—
His experience gain was incredible.
Compared to the miserable grind for the last three levels in Raven, the difference between goblins and orcs was obvious.
And he had been slicing through orcs like cutting radishes.
No way the speed would be slow.
Cheonbyeon’s power was huge—
But the real source of this monstrous damage was the stat boost from his newly obtained rewards.

[First Effect: All stats +7]
He had obtained three titles this time.
Two were Legendary.
Even the remaining one was Hero grade.
Their effects were so obvious even a five-year-old passerby would clap.
But among them, what caught Dohyun’s eye most was Heir to Kashyar’s Will.
‘Abilities unlock each time I collect fragments…’
Even the currently unlocked effect was already quite usable.
Still, for a Legendary title, it felt somewhat lacking.
Honestly, it was closer to a Hero title for now.
‘It’s a growth-type title.’
Once all fragments were gathered—
It would likely surpass most Legendary titles.
Even if the early performance was underwhelming,
Growth types revealed their true terror in the late game.
“Status window.”
And thus, Dohyun’s newly born stats were as follows.
