The blade had a clean, elegant shape, shorter than a full longsword but longer than a dagger, which made it look quick and precise rather than heavy and brutal. The metal was polished well enough that I could see a faint reflection of the forge light along the edge. The hilt was wrapped in dark leather, and the guard curved outward in a way that made the whole thing look balanced and comfortable to swing. It looked like something a skilled fighter would actually trust in combat.
Curious, I checked its stats too, and my expectations immediately dropped.

I stared at the screen for a second and then let out a quiet breath. There was no way I could afford this thing.
