Legendary Broken Player - VRMMORPG

Chapter 778 - The Dormant Fae Seed

Okay, the second round begins!

Broken immediately recast every protective skill he had, preparing to withstand Stormbreaker's relentless speed.

As expected, Stormbreaker launched another furious assault, his sword slashing through the air like a blur.

But just as before—Broken parried one of the attacks. A massive spark erupted upon impact. A guaranteed critical hit. Which meant Stormbreaker's weapon durability had dropped even further.

Out of three or four attacks, Broken only managed to parry one, while the rest landed cleanly on him.

But...

He was still standing.

Thanks to Invincible Paragon, his armor had multiple layers of defensive skills, allowing him to endure the hits while continuously cycling his defensive buffs.

And as the battle continued—

Broken started adapting.

The more Stormbreaker attacked, the more Broken read his movements. And the more Broken read his movements, the more parries he successfully landed.

Each successful parry chipped away at Stormbreaker's sword durability—

And every time it happened, Broken smirked slightly, watching as Stormbreaker's frustration grew.

The man was clearly tracking his sword's condition, calculating whether he could end the fight before his weapon gave out.

But every second that passed, the balance tilted further and further against him. At times, Stormbreaker even jumped back, creating distance—and it was obvious.

He was getting desperate.

And the worst part? Broken wasn't even breaking a sweat.

His relaxed expression was a constant reminder that this fight had turned into a countdown to Stormbreaker's loss.

"Damn it," Stormbreaker cursed under his breath, his frustration clear as day on the big screen.

The audience was growing restless, eagerly waiting for the battle's conclusion.

At first, most of them had been certain that Stormbreaker would dominate—but now? That expectation was falling apart.

"What's going on? Why hasn't Stormbreaker finished this fight yet?"

"I mean, I can see that he's fighting with incredible technique—he's landed multiple hits on Broken."

"Yeah, but look at Broken—he's just casually parrying everything, and his Health hasn't dropped at all."

"Actually, neither of them have lost any Health."

"Damn, Broken really has way too many tricks up his sleeve. First, it was that pickaxe that solved puzzles instantly, and now this weird-looking greatsword that somehow isn't breaking, no matter how many times it gets hit."

"Yeah, and Stormbreaker is actually hesitating now. I really want to know what's actually happening."

On the big screen, it was now clear as day— The fight had completely stalled.

Stormbreaker was no longer in an offensive stance, even though Broken was still standing calmly in a parry position.

The tension hung in the air.

Then, Stormbreaker's voice echoed throughout the arena, reaching every spectator.

"What kind of greatsword is that?"

"I learned a lot from this battle. Thanks for the lesson."

As always, he kept it humble—just like before.

**

The first match of the day was finally over.

And with that, Broken's rank climbed even higher, preparing him for his next fight later that evening.

Since his schedule left him with several hours to spare, he decided to use the time efficiently.

Logging back into Immortal Legacy, SexyGrill hadn't returned to the game yet.

So instead—

He entered the Moonlight Dimension, aiming to climb even higher in the Tower Trial.

Upon stepping onto the beautiful and serene floating island, a familiar presence greeted him. Cecilia appeared beside him, her ethereal form glowing softly in the moonlit space.

"How does it feel being here alone, Cecil?" he asked as he walked forward, the guardian spirit floating by his side. Continue your adventure with My Virtual Library Empire

"Alone? That is not something I concern myself with, my Lord..."

Right...

She was a spirit now, wasn't she?

From what he had learned from Polly and Gaia, spirits had emotions—but perhaps they experienced time differently. Maybe waiting in solitude wasn't as tedious for them as it would be for humans.

But as Broken conversed with Cecilia, another thought surfaced in his mind—

Something he had kept stored away, unsure what to do with it. Because so far, it had shown no changes since the day he obtained it.

Reaching into his Inventory, he pulled out the Dormant Fae Seed.

It was the result of Elaine's death—two Soul Stones that had merged into one entity.

The object resembled a large egg, roughly the size of an adult human head. But unlike a regular egg, it was wrapped in a green cocoon-like shell, giving it an almost organic, pulsing appearance.

Broken had long wondered—

Would Elaine be reborn from this seed? Or would it result in something completely new, like how Pawpaw had come into existence?

He had already tried infusing his mana into it multiple times before, but nothing had ever happened. Considering that Elaine was a faery with a deep affinity for nature, he had even brought the egg to different natural environments, hoping it would trigger some kind of reaction.

Still—no changes.

But for some reason—

Right now, he felt like trying again.

Without overthinking it, he placed his hand on the egg's surface and channeled his mana into it. He had no expectations.

But then—

For the first time ever—

A notification appeared!
