Return of the Sword God-Rank Civil Servant novel Chapter 368

# Since ancient times, those blessed by the moon and able to use its power have been very few.

# Once the qualifications are met, the Power of the Moon activates, allowing the use of the Bright Moon's power.

# Full Moon Force is a part of great nature, and those who possess Full Moon Force possess the Rune of the Moon.

# It is always active, and bearers of the Rune of the Moon receive the moon's blessing: under moonlight, all stats and recovery increase by 1%.

# Full Moon Force fundamentally bears the properties of ice and darkness, but under conditions can also bear the properties of light or fire.

# Full Moon Force is affected by the user's mana, and using Full Moon Force requires an equal amount of mana.

Su-ho checked not only the Power of the Moon trait but also the information on his other traits.

And what he learned was that only the Power of the Sun and the Power of the Moon had inherent grades.

'The rest either have no grade at all, or only the skills within the trait have grades.'

What was the difference between the two?

From what stood out immediately, he could guess at least growth potential.

Compared to traits without grades or with fixed values, Solar Force and Full Moon Force started at grade F, so the growth expectation was far higher.

'Then can these perhaps be used with Gi Seung-hwan as well?'

Seeing is believing.

He tried it on the spot.

He didn't have Gi Seung-ok, but he still had Gi Seung-hwan left.

[ You have consumed Gi Seung-hwan. ]

[ You fully absorb the skill EXP contained in Gi Seung-hwan. ]

[ Please select the skill you wish to grow. ]

A list of skills popped up before his eyes.

But Solar Force and Full Moon Force were not there.

Su-ho knit his brows.

'So it doesn't work.'

He opened the status window and tried a workaround, but the result was the same.

In the end, after picking any random skill to feed the EXP to, Su-ho finally brought up the Sealed Power of the Moon trait again.

He touched the last line, which was shaded in bold.

The 1kg of Un-cheol was prepared, so the entry had activated.

[ The condition has been met. ]

[ Will you use pure Un-cheol to release the seal? ]

The system's question.

The answer, of course, was yes.

[ You use pure Un-cheol. ]

[ The Sealed Power of the Moon is unlocked. ]

[ Trait information is deleted. ]

[ You have obtained 'Seed of the Moon'. ]

[ For achieving a great feat, the system gifts you 10 bonus stat points. ]

System alerts rose in sequence.

But Su-ho's eyes widened as he read them.

Because the trait information had been deleted.

'Why?'

He checked the status window, and sure enough, the Moon's Power section in traits had disappeared.

Instead, an item called 'Seed of the Moon' had been given.

Was that even possible?

It was the first time he'd seen such a case.

Even so, it was promising.

Because he'd been given as many as 10 bonus stat points.

Su-ho immediately checked the information on the Seed of the Moon.

[ Seed of the Moon ]

# The Isis lineage has used the power of the moon for generations.

# Isis wished to pass the moon's power on to others and, as the method, developed the Seed of the Moon.

# Only those granted qualification may consume the Seed; upon meeting the conditions and consuming it, one can sprout the inner moon that only the Isis lineage can possess.

A concise description.

After reading the explanation for a bit, Su-ho swallowed the seed at once.

There was no reason to hesitate.

From the description, there was no risk Su-ho would have to bear, and since he'd even paid Un-cheol, the conditions were more than sufficient.

The moment the seed entered his mouth, it vanished like cotton candy.

[ You have consumed the Seed of the Moon. ]

[ A fragment of the moon takes root in your body. ]

[ From now on, 'Henry Moon' can be summoned and its information checked. ]

'Henry Moon?'

The moment he saw the alert, he wondered what it meant.

'Looks like because my name is set as Henry the Isis, it was labeled Henry Moon.'

Then in Korean, would that be something like 'Su-ho Moon'?

Thinking that, Su-ho immediately checked Henry Moon's information.

[ Henry Moon ]

# ???'s ?.

# To check the hidden information, 1kg of pure gold is required.

# Any pure gold used to check information is consumed permanently.

Strictly speaking, he couldn't even call it the Rune of Greed yet.

Because the information hadn't been revealed.

But Su-ho knew.

# In the Demon Realm exist the Seven Great Demons called the Seven Deadly Villains.

# A rune by which one can borrow the power of Greed, the Great Demon called Grid.

# Upon use, you are granted the qualification to become 'Grid's Guest'.

At last, all information was revealed.

A result obtained by investing the equivalent of 30 billion won.

No, counted in total, 33.3 billion had been invested.

In his previous life it had been discovered later, so it had been much more expensive than this, but that hardly meant 3.33 billion won was a small sum.

Which was why Su-ho could smile in satisfaction.

Because he'd finally gotten it in hand.

The power of one of the 'Seven Deadly Villains', who had once been a supervillain.

Narrowing his eyes, Su-ho examined the Rune of Greed, which now felt distinctly demonic.

At a glance it looked like a reward for effort, but it absolutely wasn't.

This was a poisoned chalice.

A Great Demon's rune would grant a Player tremendous power in the short term, but as time went on and that power grew stronger, the Player would fail to control it and their mind would be taken.

'Like the Mega Crusher.'

But even if that were true for others, he would be fine.

If the sole reason not to possess it was that your mind might be eaten away, then you just needed a will strong enough not to be eaten by some demon.

And this wasn't baseless confidence.

Su-ho pulled up one skill information window in front of his eyes.

[ Dragon Mind ]

Seeing the newly added trait, Su-ho checked the information on Grid's Guest.
