"Welcome back. I have almost everything you will need ready."
Rayleigh, Alex, and Uldess stepped into Bram's shop. Bram looked excited to see them, though Rayleigh thought he knew why.
"Have you decided, Rayleigh? Will you give Agent Burning Fang?"
Rayleigh, remembering what Seb told him, looked straight at Bram, trying not to notice Uldess looking at him from the corner of his eye.
"I have decided to give Agent Burning Fang, and I would also like to have my own cursed weapon."
Uldess grabbed Rayleigh's shoulders.
"Rayleigh, what are you thinking?"
Uldess looked like he was going to faint.
"I realized that I am not strong enough to fight Migdranniun, and I dont have enough time to get strong enough either. So using a cursed weapon is my best bet."
Uldess was still in shock.
"Alex, talk Rayleigh out of this."
Rayleigh was surprised to see Uldess beg Alex for help. Alex looked between the two of them.
"Ray, you do know you can't rely on a cursed weapon. There is a reason why the proper name is cursed secondary weapons. They are to be used only as a last resort. Uldess told me all about them when you were still asleep. He said that even one that isn't meant for combat could bring a kingdom to dust, and remember, we still need to find your soul forged weapon."
Rayleigh had forgotten that he still needed to find his soul forged weapon; maybe he wouldn't need a cursed weapon for himself. Before he could say anything, he remembered what Seb said about the demon lords being made. If he could find out what they are, maybe he could find their weakness.
"I am sorry, Uldess, but I have made up my mind. I am asking for a cursed weapon."
Rayleigh turned around to face Bram, who was enjoying the conversation.
"Well, Rayleigh, what cursed weapon are you looking for? The more I know what exactly you are looking for, the better chance of me choosing the perfect one."
"Let's first start with Agent, I already know the one I want."
Bram seemed surprised at that, but recovered quickly enough.
"I see, he isn't affected by the common cures. Ok, can you please call Agent for me?"
At that moment, Agent appeared, scaring Rayleigh.
"Why did he show up? I didn't even call him yet."
Bram stepped forward and inspected Agent.
"Interesting. It appears that Agent is now able to sense when you are about to call him."
"But why did he just appear? I thought he could only come up from the ground."
"No, he can teleport, but what he seems to do is teleport below you and then rise through the ground."
Rayleigh hadn't realized that Agent could teleport; he just thought that when he called him, he would just be taken from wherever he was, and when he was done, Agent would be sent back to where he was before.
"Now then, shall we give him his cursed weapon now?"
