Ren was always been an average student, only having a single talent, sword talent. His family runs a Kendo Academy, but that did nothing good for him. Ren's method of sword fighting is more of practical than traditional, using sword with only one hand, using agility, speed and reflexes. though its practical its not within rules, resulting him in being cast aside remaining average as ever, he always tried staying by rules but no matter how he tried abandoning practicality always felt wrong affecting his performance. but one day while siting in a park at night a golden sword appeared out of nowhere and pierced his heart and when he woke up he find himself in new world full of magic.

Sword Magician

After Adonis returned from the dungeon, things changed—and not just in power.

The Eclipse Cloak became part of him.

The first thing Adonis realized:He looked amazing.

No lie. He stood in front of the mirror for a solid five minutes.

The high black-and-white collar stood sharp over his shoulders, gold-threaded runes pulsing softly along the fabric. It shimmered when light touched it, like it was half-real, forged from moonlight and shadow.

With his black mask and golden swords, the whole look screamed:"I'm the protagonist."

Elora would've rolled her eyes. Probably insulted him. Then agreed.

But the Eclipse wasn't just about appearance.

The moment he bound with it, something inside him clicked.

[Binding complete. Synchronization: 71%. Initiating interface…]

He staggered, briefly overwhelmed by the sensation of new strength pouring through him. His body felt lighter, as if gravity decided to take a break. His mind sharpened. Mana, clearer than ever, circulated in smooth precision.

Speed. Reaction. Awareness. Agility. Control. Mana reserves. Regeneration.Everything—boosted.

The robe healed him. Microfractures from overtraining? Gone. Tired muscles? Gone. The cloak actively cared for its host.

But it also… talked.

Well—not quite "talked" in the normal sense. It sent waves of thought, like impressions, emotions, sarcasm.

When Adonis walked through the city two days later, Eclipse suddenly materialized—in full dramatic flourish—right in front of a certain B-rank adventurer.

And yes, wet his pants. Again.

Adonis had to apologize for five straight minutes.

"I didn't summon it!" he explained.

The man sobbed dramatically. "It just… just floated out and—hovered at me!! It even did that little twirl!!"

The guild was howling in laughter for days.

Miranda almost gave Eclipse its own adventurer card.

Adonis decided to name it Eclipse formally.

"You've got a personality. Might as well have a name."

The robe sent back a satisfied glow of approval. It liked the name.

And the name began to spread about the mischievous robe, Adonis don't know whether to laugh or cry in this situation.

It wasn't too much—but a few kids training in the square whispered it when he passed by.

Even on missions, Eclipse proved invaluable. Quick movement through forest terrain? Easy. Avoiding traps? Light step. Energy drained in prolonged battle? It regenerated him.

The way Eclipse flowed around him made it look like the robe itself fought beside him. It moved with the wind, turning and flaring in rhythm with every sword swing. An extension of his will and aura.

Adonis realized that he really picked treasure this time.

Just like mana cores, artifacts also divided into squire, knight, aristocrat, royal and king class. But bonded artifacts like Eclipse robe can grow along Adonis saving him buying new ones every time, plus its effects are also top class.

"I wonder how such a precious artifact is doing in soul dungeon?" he thought, the special artifacts like bonded artifacts are mostly found in high level dungeons, the soul dungeon is only B ranked dungeon, so he is confused how this thing end up there.

"Maybe I should check soul dungeon after my breakthrough" Adonis thought looking deeply at his black and white robe.
