Mission in another world with my transformed best friend

"Master, have you ever heard of the 'Golden Unicorn'?"

Renee suddenly mentioned the name of a boss that was shrouded in mystery in various games. It was the first time Wang Kai had heard this seemingly illusory yet familiar term from someone else during the game. He immediately became interested, nodded, then shook his head, his eyes shining as he signaled her to hurry up and continue.

"Unicorns are not a rare species to begin with; some have even been domesticated..."

"However, a small portion of the unicorn population has been living alone in a certain place for many years, and after several hundred years of continuous evolution, it has finally become the top existence that is closest to a divine beast. And the supreme species among them, the 'Golden Unicorn,' has never been sighted in any real sense."

"As for why there is so little information, it's because the adventurers who wanted to go and hunt them either gave up halfway or... never came back."

"The only thing we know is that the 'Golden Unicorn' is found in a place called the 'Silent Forest'."

"And the adventurers who were lucky enough to survive left behind only these descriptions..."

"~The golden body of this sacred creature, its indestructible exterior, even the world's strongest shield cannot withstand its sharp horns~"

……

Upon hearing the narration of a "super hellish difficulty dungeon," Wang Kai was indeed very excited. After Renee finished speaking, he finally couldn't resist the adventurous impulse in his heart.

"A certain handbook (adventurer's guide) briefly mentioned that the 'Golden Unicorn' you mentioned is ranked in the top three of the 'Ten Forbidden Adventurer Hunting Quests'. Now that you've said it, it seems it wasn't just a joke."

"What's wrong, Master? You seem quite interested. You must have taken a fancy to the 'Golden Unicorn's' indestructible horn."

"Huh? How do you know so much?"

"Of course, you used an iron rod with absolutely no magic attribute bonus to cut someone's two-handed sword, made of mithril and enhanced with magic stones, in half... I still can't figure out how you did that."

"Well, based on your current understanding and the previous 'trial teaching,' even if I were to tell you exactly how to operate it, you would probably still cover your ears and shout loudly, just like before, as if someone had 'cast a spell' on you..."

Renee shuddered, seemingly because her PDST had flared up again. She shook her head, sighed, and looked away from Wang Kai's face, staring straight ahead as she spoke.

"I still have to admit that I can't accept Master's 'combat concepts' that I've never heard of before so quickly. From now on, I plan to turn 'listening' into 'seeing.' If I can witness Master's combat process a few times, perhaps I can learn some things that I've never heard of before more easily..."

"This... Renee, you mean you want to spar with me? But after all, it'll be a while later..."

“I know, Alice just passed by me with a very excited look on her face. She seemed to be looking forward to the banquet with you tonight... I won’t be so shameless as to ask you for advice. Anyway, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future.”

"Huh, what's going on? Zhang Lan, who 'voluntarily admitted defeat,' actually looks quite pleased with herself. She seems quite satisfied with losing the 'bet.' I should have known better than to agree to that 'surrender and lose half' agreement. Another key point is that the seemingly safe 'bet' was only managed to narrowly escape the 'childlessness' crisis thanks to Renee's unintentional 'leaking' of the outcome."

"Master... no, Kyle, can I ask you a question about the future?"

"Just ask."

Renee took a deep breath, her face flushing slightly, as if she had been thinking about this issue for a long time and it was finally time to speak.

"Your 'newbie' background is completely mismatched with your skills. Have you considered changing your class to 'Sword Saint' in the future?"

"Sword Saint!? Right, you mentioned that your great-grandfather challenged the hero with the honor of 'Sword Saint' more than ten years ago, and then chose to go into seclusion... Since he's a relative of yours, haven't any of you younger generations become 'Sword Saints' yet?"

"Yes, when he lost to the hero, my great-grandfather did not pass on the profession of 'Sword Saint' before he chose to go into seclusion without any warning."

"Well, actually I don't care about professions or anything, as long as my 'attributes' are strong enough... But if I ever encounter an opponent that requires 'professional skills' to defeat, I'd be happy to meet your Sword Saint senior..."

"Really?" Renee's eyes suddenly lit up, as if she had received the most satisfactory answer. "Master... no, Kyle, you really want to become the 'Sword Saint'?"

Wang Kai couldn't figure out why the other person was suddenly so excited. After a few seconds of stunned silence, he nodded, but his face showed some difficulty.

"But didn't your great-grandfather go into seclusion? Going into seclusion means... no one should be able to find him, right? If they can't, there's nothing I can do..."

"No problem, I'll share a secret with you quietly. When I was little, my great-grandfather loved me the most. When he used to hold me, he would often describe a mysterious place. It had mountains, water, and forests, and it was a paradise suitable for 'retirement'."

Renee recalled some happy memories, as if she had returned to her childhood, and a simple childhood smile appeared on her face.

“After my great-grandfather left, the descendants of the family who were implicated went their separate ways, and no one made a point of looking for him… I have always believed that I am not strong enough and cannot ask him for the long-lost title of ‘Sword Saint’… But I believe that you, Kyle, definitely have a chance.”

Wang Kai scratched the back of his head, looking a little embarrassed.

"Hearing you say that makes me quite pleased... Alright, I'll go with you to visit the senior if I have time in the future. By the way, do you know what unique skills the 'Sword Saint' class has?"

"Use thought as a guide, unify the three into one, and deliver a fatal blow!"

"Um, could you explain it a little bit... these dozen or so words, they seem to know me, but I don't know them... it even gives me the illusion that our identities have suddenly been reversed."

"It's very simple. It's a skill that, for a short period of time, converts the values ​​of two of your three attributes—strength, agility, and intelligence—into the remaining attribute to launch an attack. Do you understand my explanation?"

Wang Kai was stunned for a moment. With most of his brain cells dedicated to being a "gamer," he instantly realized that this skill was practically "tailor-made" for him...

Having "resigned" 24 times, with the "newbie" job title above his head, level 65, and all three attributes around 800, he has no problem dealing with ordinary enemies.

However, if he encounters an enemy with a superior attribute, and he can't compete in the "primary attribute," he can only drag the hard battle into a protracted war. Not only is victory difficult, but he might also be "counter-killed" if he's not careful...

If one were to acquire the Sword Saint class's "attribute conversion" skill, wouldn't it allow them to unleash an attack boosted by three times the attribute points in an instant? Although there's no concrete evidence yet, it's safe to assume that the explosive power from such a skill would be enough to rival the Four Heroes.
