Godlike Player in a Game-Like World

''This is now total garbage, '' Raydon said, picking up a robe that was nearly split in half and covered in blood. Normally, when he checked an item, he could see its properties along with the system message, but in this case, the system message did not appear.

''Can I still sell it? Or maybe I'll be able to find someone to fix it. Let's keep this for now. ''

Herman's items seemed to be a complete skill-set and would probably not be useful to him because they were primarily supported by spirit and charisma stats, but he might still be able to sell them and make some good gold coins.

''Okay, next. ''

He took the next item after placing the robe in his dimensional storage. This was a pair of gray and black embroidered gloves Herman was wearing.

''Hm? Another outstanding-quality item. Additionally, like my great sword, Lionheart, this one has a name as well. '' He was surprised to see this item.

Only outstanding and higher-quality items are likely to have a name. It was expected that the sword Gary gave Raydon had a name; after all, Gary was the young master of a big family, and the sword had to have been specially made by the family. However, the fact that this item had a name also raised the possibility that Herman had crafted it himself.

"There should be very few item holders who can craft outstanding and higher quality items. " Raydon pondered. He had rarely come across an item of outstanding quality before.

"That's also a pretty good skill, but it's not very durable. ''

Herman used this skill twice on Raydon during their battle, but he easily dispersed it with a single sword stroke. Being a control-type skill, it could be very effective on inexperienced fighters, but on someone with Raydon's fighting instincts and experiences, it was just a harmless smoke.

Herman probably didn't give much thought to the smoke hand's durability while crafting, since he typically relied on his crafted soldiers in battle and this skill was only intended to temporarily divert the enemy's attention.

After putting the gloves in his dimensional storage, Raydon picked up the next item. It was a shoulder brace that looked like it was made of dark gray leather.

''Is this human skin? '' He noticed that this leather resembled the skin of fallen soldiers when he looked at it closely.

'Another named item. It seems like this guy really self-crafted his item set, huh? ' Raydon sighed while reflecting. As soon as possible, he also wanted to start learning how to craft. So perhaps he wouldn't need to visit the item market every time and spent the whole day to find a suitable item.

''It has a good skill but, regrettably, requires a lot of mana. '' Following another sigh, Raydon also put this item back. Fortunately, he has a hook skill as a control type, which didn't need to be changed right away because it was extremely useful.

''And this one. '' He said, looking at a ripped belt that appeared to be made of the same leather as the shoulder straps.

''I probably did more damage to the items than I did to Herman,'' Raydon chuckled. Herman obviously did not care about the durability of the items while crafting them, as his own skin appeared to be stronger than all of them.

He looked at the last item after throwing the belt into his dimensional storage and was once again disappointed. The reason was not that the item was bad; on the contrary, it was excellent; however, it was not suitable for him as well.

''Fuck, another custom-made item that I can't use. ''

Raydon swore before stuffing it into his dimensional storage as well.

''Can I get more gold coins if I sell all of these items at once? '' Other than these items, Raydon couldn't find a way to profit from the battle. Because the monsters he killed were Herman's own creation, they didn't have life cores, and he didn't even have dimensional storage large enough to take all of their bodies for the material. Even the value of their dead bodies was unknown to him.

''Using them all at once doesn't seem to have a set effect. Anyway, I'll ask the man in the item market about this later. '' He put the matter to rest for the time being after remembering the man at Fang's shop. Also, the black obsidian stone he had discovered previously remained a mystery to him, so he could save these two questions for later. He had something more important to look into right now.

''This should be the most valuable item of the day.'' Raydon took a black sapphire ball with wisps of smokey black clouds floating in it. This was the storage expansion orb he received as a system reward for killing Herman.

''This one appears to be a little larger than others I've discovered. I believe it's because it's green grade. ''

After saying this, he looked at the system information and was shocked by what he saw.
