Old Gladius

Find Manji in map.

I came across Manji again, whom I had first met in map when making the medicine for Maya, the little girl in map. Surprised at how much stronger I had become, Manji asked me for a favor. Long ago, when he was in danger of being struck down by Balrog, he was saved by the legendary hero Tristan, who died in his place. Ever since then, Manji had held onto Tristan’s sword. But the blade, corrupted by Balrog’s evil aura, has become so worn down that it can hardly even be called a sword anymore… Manji handed me the Old Gladius he had been keeping and asked me to awaken it back to its true form. Once fully awakened, it is said to become the Hero's Gladius. Just as Manji said, I should seek out Chrishrama in map.

I met Chrishrama in map and was able to ask him how to awaken the Old Gladius.
