Chapter 1692: Spiritual Soul Weapon

Before I proceeded, I examined my inventory again, reviewing the items I had purchased from Kajithe.
And the cat, of course, was with us…
He had been napping the entire time inside the moving house, but now that he had awakened, he trailed closely behind us.
He appeared somewhat nervous, though, and explained that Daddy Sardine insisted he remain by my side at all times and participate in combat…
Anyway.
[Thunder Hare Fangs] USED
[Fire Lion Fur] USED
[White Salamander’s Shed Skin] USED
[Spirit Emblem: Multi-Eyed Beholder] GIFTED
[Spirit Emblem: Golden Light Butterfly]
[Emerald Turtle Shell] GIFTED
[Black Goat’s Horn] GIFTED

[Spiritual Soul Weapon Art Scroll]
[Golden Spiritual Art Scroll]
[Spirit Core Fragment of the Seven Rainbow-Tipped Starfish of the Starlight Sea]
[Rainbow Horn of the Iridescent Heaven Serpent, King of the White Sky Serpents]
Okay, I still possessed a considerable number of items… I had used or gifted half of them. Mark now wielded that powerful Emblem, while I retained the Butterfly one.
As for the Skills… I decided to use at least one immediately. I chose the Spiritual Soul Weapon Art Scroll without hesitation.
I retrieved it from my inventory and opened its contents. Dozens of colorful runes surged into my body, gradually integrating over time.
F L A S H !
“Nyaagh?! You’re using the scroll right now?! You should’ve done it earlier! You won’t be able to get used to the Spiritual Art yet, it takes a while!” Kajithe complained.
“You think so?” I asked.
“Of course I think so! I am literally a Cath Sith who knows these things. I live in this Realm, and I’ve lived for almost a hundred years…” he rolled his eyes. “Just save it and then-”
F L U O S H !
“A little too late to say that…” I sighed, as the Scroll quickly disappeared, its powers flowing through me.
I felt its Runes coursing through every part of my body, reaching my Spiritual Heart and settling within.
“Oooh…!”
A surge of new spiritual power enveloped me, accompanied by knowledge flooding my mind, as if I instinctively understood how to wield this new technique.
Then, the World’s Voice spoke.
[You have used the [Spiritual Soul Weapon Art Scroll] and have successfully absorbed its Spiritual Runes.]
[Your Spiritual Heart has absorbed the Spiritual Runes and created a new Spiritual Art.]
[You have learned the Spiritual Art: {Spiritual Soul Weapon Art: Tier 1: Rank 1}]
[You can now use Spirit Power and Mana to create a Spiritual Soul Weapon.]
[Your Spiritual Soul Weapon’s form, appearance, and powers are unique to your own Soul and are based on your experiences, desires, heart, and personality.]
[Elemental Affinities may or may not apply…]
“Sweet! I can do this now…”
I focused intently, combining my Spiritual Power and Mana, shaping them into a Weapon.
Apparently, I couldn’t choose the weapon’s form. It was “born” from my soul, reflecting my experiences, desires, heart, and personality.
Even better, elemental affinities didn’t necessarily influence it, so I could manifest something truly unique.
F L U O S H !
“T-There it is!”
It materialized quickly, leaving Kajithe stunned and Katherine visibly surprised.
“W-What is the meaning of this nyaaaa?! Y-You were able to conjure the Spiritual Art without any prior knowledge or experience nya?! That’s not even possible nya! You’re cheating nyaaagh!” he complained angrily.
“Hahaha! I suppose I am?” I wondered. “I have simply already accumulated a large quantity of power in the other world, so this is like… Hm, in game terms, you could say I’m in like New Game+!”
I didn’t really like to act cocky, but… I couldn’t help it. I was stronger than even old spirits from this Realm. I had to feel at least a little proud of myself, right?
And now…
“Oh, it’s materializing! There it is!” I said.
The Spirit Power and Mana coiled together, then became compact, and from there, it took the form of something.
I bet it’s a shovel, right?
Or perhaps a big sword?
Maybe a shield?
“Eh?”
No, it was none of those things, though.
“Hmm? Oh!”
It was still something connected to it…
Though I expected something a bit more legendary.
Does my heart really just… embody this?
“I already had a shovel… I guess this is fine? Irene, what do you think?”
“That’s a Hoe?! Hey, with this, you may be able to do that technique you did before much better, right?” Irene asked.
Indeed, it was a Hoe, a farming tool. A hoe is a simple hand tool used in farming and gardening, consisting of a blade attached to a long handle. It is primarily used for digging, weeding, shaping soil, and harvesting root crops. The handle allows the user to work upright, while the blade severs weeds at their roots, loosens soil, and creates furrows or trenches.
I used one back home when I was younger, alongside Irene, the old shovel. I think it was lost or used by someone else, unlike Irene, who had been old and abandoned for years until I found her and breathed life into her.
It was quite beautiful too, glowing with an ethereal golden and green light, not completely “solid” as I had imagined it would be.
[You have summoned your Spiritual Soul Weapon: [Ancient Soil-Shaping Hoe (Tier 1)]!]
[Your Spiritual Soul Weapon will grow stronger as the Spiritual Art connected to it does, which is also connected to your own growth.]
[The more you use your Spiritual Soul Weapon in its specific forms, the stronger it can grow, which will also boost the growth of your Spiritual Heart and even Spiritual Heart Beasts.]
[Additionally, Spiritual Weapons have their own Spirit Weapon Abilities, which they unlock over time.]
[Your Spiritual Soul Weapon: [Ancient Soil-Shaping Hoe (Tier 1)] has unlocked its Spirit Weapon Ability: [Soil Shaping (F)]!]
[Spiritual Soul Weapon Abilities come in different Ranks depending on their strength. These Ranks can increase once the Spiritual Soul Weapon increases its Tier or evolves.]
