"There are three types of weapons, treasures, or artifacts. They are, namely, Ordinary weapons or treasures, Transcendent weapons or treasures, and lastly, Divine weapons or treasures."
"Those three are also further divided into three grades: lower, middle, and superior."
"Ordinary levels of weapons are not rare and don't possess special abilities, but beyond them, transcendent treasures or weapons are entirely different, as every single one of them possesses extraordinary power that can change the power and status of the person or the force that owns it."
"As for the semi-transcendent grade, it is not a real grade; rather, it is meant for special weapons that didn't reach the transcendent level but have some properties that make them much more powerful than superior weapons."
"But don't underestimate the strength of semi-transcendent-grade weapons or artifacts; some of them are not weaker than transcendent-grade weapons, but because of certain shortcomings, they cannot be considered transcendent weapons."
Grandpa William smiled as he said everything to Apollo, who listened to every word carefully, not missing anything.
And after listening to his grandpa's words, he understood how rare those weapons and metal fragments are. Their price should be beyond his initial expectations.
"Then is the bow semi-transcendent or a real transcendent bow?"
Apollo asked his grandpa, as this bow is extraordinary and doesn't seem to have the power of a usual semi-transcendent weapon. He even felt it might not be an ordinary transcendent weapon.
"I don't know."
"Um..."
Apollo felt surprised after hearing his grandpa's words.
Feeling the confused expression on his grandson's face, he said, "The powerful aura it gives is that of a transcendent weapon, but at the same time, it seems to give a weird, mysterious sensation that he never felt in any transcendent weapons he had seen."
"This bow is very mysterious and beyond my understanding, so use it with caution, as it might have a big history or secret hidden in it."
When he said that he had a grave expression on his face, his words had a profound meaning, pointing out the hidden dangers of using this extraordinary of unknown origin.
Apollo also understood and would not use it in front of others so that further troubles would come to his door.
"Okay, let's leave all the things here and go get some rest; today was a tiring day."
With that said, both of them went to their rooms for a rest, especially Apollo, for whom today was the most dangerous and exhilarating day at the same time, with many revelations that opened a new path for him.
He jumped on his bed and fell asleep in a few moments, as he was physically and mentally exhausted.
He slept for fourteen hours straight before waking up the next day energized, fully recovered, and with inexhaustible strength.
After the required, he felt better than ever, as the transformation that happened the previous day made his strength and body a little unstable as he forcefully opened his tenth prana circuit.
The transformation needs time to fully adapt, so he feels better after the required change, and this improvement might continue for a few days until his body fully adjusts to the new change.
"Good!"
He was doing some light workouts to achieve profound control of his strength, which increased drastically. But as he was practising, a servant came with words that let him stop his training.
Today is the day Lady Roseate and Master Aaron, with their guards, are supposed to leave Fletcher Castle, but it seems they both want to meet Apollo before they leave.
"Okay, I am coming."
Apollo quickly dressed up a bit and came to the main hall of the Fletcher family, where his grandpa, father, mother, lady Roseate, and master Aaron were already waiting for him.
He came and stood beside his parents, looking at Master Aaron and Lady Roseate, who had called him here.
Master Aaron glanced and nodded at Baron Williams, then looked at Apollo and said.
"Hmm, Apollo, I saw how you handle yourself in tough situations, and the talent you showed is remarkable."
"But if you want to become stronger and reach a higher level, you cannot do it here."
"I have never seen anyone more talented than you, so I want to accept you as my first apprentice who will continue and can complete my 'Thirty-three sword style'.
Hearing this, his eyes started glowing more brightly, as this opportunity came at the right time, and with his new strength, there was nothing left in the Fletcher family that could help him.
And only resources and guidance from a stronger, richer place can meet his demands.
So, becoming an apprentice of one of the ten strongest sword masters is already the best choice in the kingdom, as even the royal academy cannot give him the same treatment that he would receive after becoming a master Aaron's apprentice.
But he didn't immediately say yes; look at his parents and grandfather, whose faces were filled with excitement and joy. And he immediately understood that they might be more eager than him.
And he also didn't waste any time and immediately bent to his knees and said, "Please, master Aaron, accept me as your apprentice."
"Haha! Haha! Okay, okay, stand up."
"From now on, you are the first apprentice and inheritor of thirty-thee sword style."
Master Aaron quickly accepted him as his first disciple and looked at him with excitement.
The more he looked at Apollo, the more, he felt satisfied. He saw how good he was and had extraordinary luck surviving the ruins. He felt Apollo might be able to fulfil his wish that even he didn't achieve.
"Alright, I am leaving, but in a week, after taking care of some things, I will come back. So be prepared to leave your family for months or a year, as I will take you to a special place for your training."
