Chapter 17 Misfortune Cursed Sword
[Misfortune Cursed Sword]
[There's nothing worse than a cursed misfortune. A person who uses this thing will be cursed. He will fall into a delusion that makes him forget himself.]
[This sword is made of Adamantine, the toughest mineral in the world. No force can destroy it.]
[Apply havoc on the target, apply random curses to them. Making them get the worst curse they could ever imagine in their lives.]
"This sword is so~ awesome…."

The draw-back effect of the sword looked terrible, but Nathan could soon overcome it with his self-mental healing.
"Woah… That sword seems very fitting for you to use. I like it so much." Luna raised both her hands, shouting with a cheerful face.
Nathan raised the sword and focused his gaze.
He slashed the sword forward and made several moves.
Nathan quickly jumped and positioned himself around the cave, all the while slashing at the air. It felt good to do that. It was something he couldn't previously do when he was still stuck on a wheelchair.
"This sword doesn't have good enough features, but at least it's made of Adamantine. I know that mineral isn't something that can be easily obtained, isn't it Luna-Sensei?" Nathan stood up straight again and looked at Luna.
"Right…. Yeay...."
Nathan sat cross-legged. Then he lay down and closed his eyes.
"Master Nathan, Master Nathan. There are still other artifacts that you can get in this place. Wouldn't it be better if we took the remaining time to check it out?"
Luna sat beside him, shaking his shoulders.
"I'm tired. I want to sleep. We can postpone it to next week, right?"
Luna fell silent hearing Nathan's words. She chuckled lightly, "It seems that having two sins at once really makes you lose control, doesn't it? Aha ha ha."
"I'm not lazing around, Luna. I was just thinking, and with this way of lying down, I feel it's easier to think."

"Master Nathan… There are still two minutes left. There is one more important item that you can use at this early stage." Luna shook Nathan's shoulders even harder.
"Can we postpone it to next week, Luna? I'm exhausted… We're not in a hurry, are we?"
"Master Nathan... Are you sure? Come on, Master Nathan... We still have enough time if we run fast. The next artifact is not far from here." Luna insisted.
Nathan didn't move at all. He seemed to be enjoying his rest more and more, enjoying his last seconds in that place.
[Visit Time Left: 00:00.37]
Nathan was awake, looking at Luna with his lazy eyes.
"These things? How do I get them out?" Nathan pointed to the items he had found.
"You can easily summon them from outside. Very practical, isn't it?"
Nathan nodded. "So I can summon any object in this place from the outside?"
"Yes... This place can be used by you as an inventory. You can also do the opposite, storing things from outside into this place."
Nathan didn't respond. He was silent, watching the timer in front of him. His mind was too full of information that he had suddenly received. It was as if he could no longer process every new information he got.
"Time is running out in a little while…. Do you want to hug me before I return to my hologram form?" She chuckled.
Nathan swallowed and shook his head firmly. "Please don't make me a criminal, Luna!"
At that moment, a vortex of energy suddenly enveloped his body. Darkness covered his vision. And in an instant, he was back in his room.

Nathan looked around. Nothing has changed.
Luna reappeared in front of him, with her body size shrinking to her normal size again. "Tada. Hi Master Nathan…. Do you miss me?"
"Of course, I miss you so much." Nathan smiled, then walked over to the sink.
"I feel flattered to receive such sweet words."
Luna floated after Nathan. She then sat on the crescent moon that always followed her and hovered over Nathan's body.
"So… Do you know how to use the Crescent Moon Pocket Dimension? Eh… I mean, do you know how to summon an object from that place and do the opposite thing?"
"That's something I wanted to ask too. So how?"
"So… All the things you have known and touched, you can summon them whenever you want. And similarly, you can put anything in your grasp into that dimension, too."
"So… That dimension functions like an inventory? I can move anything from this world into that place. How big of a limit do I have?"
"Yes... Yes... You can move anything into that dimension as long as you have the ability to lift it. And, of course, it can't be a living thing."
Nathan washed his mouth. Then he raised his right hand. "Gold coin."
A gold coin then appeared in his hand.
Nathan looked at the gold coin. The shape is simple, just a gold chip with a dragon shape engraved on one side.
"I've never seen a gold coin with a pattern like this."
Luna floated up and sat across from Nathan. Her feet swayed on the faucet.
"That gold coin was used by the people of Yunatea in the past when the dragon race was still in power. However, no one uses gold coins with such a pattern anymore."
"So, you mean I can't use this thing as a medium of exchange?"
"Hummu, Hummu."
Nathan threw the gold coin in the air, and then it disappeared.
"So, I can't use the coins directly for now. Should I melt them and turn them into gold bars?"
Nathan came out of the emergency bathroom.
"And I also can't carelessly show people those gold coins. I don't know what kind of danger I might get if someone knows about the gold."
Nathan walked towards where his car was parked. There was a bonfire near there.
Sitting by the bonfire, Edna immediately stood up and ran to him when she noticed his arrival.
"Young master."
Edna stopped in front of him. She examined Nathan's face and noticed a wound near his neck.
"Is the wound serious? Let me treat it."
Edna grabbed Nathan's wrist and led him to a camping chair by the fire.
He let Edna pour the liquid medicine over his shoulders and neck.
Nathan closed his eyes and accepted her care gratefully.
"Did you manage to clear the dungeon? Did you get into trouble?"
Edna sat beside Nathan. She looked at him with a warm face.
Nathan smiled. "Yes, I managed to clear the dungeon, and I loved it. I really enjoyed my first dungeon. And I also advanced to level 11."
"Woah…" Edna clapped her hands. "Congratulations… I'm glad to hear that. You really did your best!"
Edna stood up and grabbed the bowl and soup from the pot on the fire.
"I prepared this soup for you."
Nathan took the bowl. He immediately swallowed the warm soup from the spoon.
The cavities in his stomach seemed to dance as the warm liquid entered him.
"Young master, do you want to go back home and take a rest there?"
Nathan looked at Edna. The girl's face seemed to glow, reflecting the night's moonlight. Likewise, her wavy hair was blown by the night wind.
Nathan leaned back. He slowly let go of the tiredness and enjoyed the night air, which was fresh in contrast to what he got in the dungeon.
"No. I'll just camp out here tonight." Nathan looked at Edna with a teethy smile.
"I'll be doing another dungeon expedition tomorrow anyway."
Edna covered her lips with the back of her palm. She chuckled, "You always said you wanted to go camping, even though you thwarted my plans every single time, even when I had finished preparing everything."
"Is that true?"
Edna nodded.
At that moment, Nathan remembered something, and he clasped his hands. A gold coin appeared there.
"Edna, I need you to do something for me." He showed the gold coin in his hand.
Edna tilted her head, trying to inspect the thing in Nathan's hand. "What can I do for you?"
"I need you to do something to exchange this gold coin for money. I actually have more than this. No one is allowed to know about the source of these coins, and especially not the fact that I am in possession of them."
Edna brought her face closer. "I have never seen such a gold coin before."
Nathan nodded. "I have a large number of gold coins like this."
Edna raised her eyebrows. "Is that true? Is this the thing Lady Diana left for you?"
"You are really good at coming up with such a conclusion. But I can't answer the question either."
Nathan handed the gold coin to Edna.
The gold fell when she grabbed it.
"Edna?"
Nathan looked at her face, and at that moment, he noticed something strange on her.
She stared blankly.
"Edna! What's happening!?"
