After spending an entire day with the girls and everyone else yesterday. Tyler decided it best to finally stop lazing around and get his weapon made. He had been sitting with the so-called famed blacksmith for a while now and he had to admit. The guy may be weird but, he was also quite the storyteller.

Although what that had to do with blacksmithing, he had no idea. He also couldn't tell which of his stories were false and which were exaggerated, although they were still very interesting and a bit informative.

Tyler wanted a sword specially made for him, a magic weapon if you will. Rain also needed one more dagger to make up for her missing blade as it didn't feel right for her to wield a single blade. Although technically, she could use the spell, 'Spiritual Daggers' to compensate for that if needed, such a course of action would greatly reduce the effectiveness of the spell.

She sat next to Tyler in the blacksmith Bungo's newly assigned workshop as he narrated a lot of his old adventures to them while he worked.

The place was supposed to be a blacksmith's workshop but it wasn't as hot as Tyler was used to from the ones back on the human continent. He had curiously asked him and Bungo had told him about the recently discovered wide applications of magic runes which could be found on his forge and even more were on the walls of the castle including his new workstation.

According to him, he believes the runes on the walls maintained the temperature in the room and the ones on the forge allowed the temperature in the forge to get as high as possible without any heat escaping out. Tyler simply glanced at the runes and was able to tell that he was mostly correct.

The runes were all intermediate runes and he could only understand a few. He was impressed with the fact that this ogre who was incapable of reading magic runes had still figured it out.

After deciding on the design and preparing the materials, Bungo went into the forge and placed the ores and cores he would melt inside the furnace. Of course, there were easier ways to melt metals and ores but most great blacksmiths were old school and would rather do it manually, or so he said.

Tyler's sword was being forged from the cores of both the Tier 5 lesser basilisks and the core of the trolls combined with a piece of Duranium Albert had given him when he heard about this, claiming it was useless to him at this point. Duranium was supposed to be one of the rarest metals in the world. According to Bungo, there were nine of such rare metals in this world starting from the softest and least valuable which also meant they were a lot more common than the others.

While iron was a metal still found on Neron, it was also one of the most common metals on the planet and therefore was not part of the list and neither was steel or even magic steel.

The list of the rarest metal on Neron starts with, Copper, Silver, Gold, Platinum, Orichalcum, Adamantine, Duranium, Tritanium and finally, Quantium. Tyler found their names interesting especially the last one, so he asked Bungo about it but it turned out that he had never seen or heard of anyone obtaining Quantium before. It definitely lived up to its name as the rarest metal in the world.

Tyler thought it might be fun to make a weapon out of that but simply gave up on that idea. The only reason he wanted a weapon was for insurance purposes, just in case there was ever a time he was unable to use magic for some reason. He made a specific design for Bungo, describing a sword similar to the Japanese katana, the odachi. I mean, who wouldn't want a Japanese weapon in a fantasy world.

Sure he had only seen a single elf since he got here but she had definitely lived up to the legendary beauty of the elves. If he wasn't such a stand-up guy, he would've been so in there. 'Hehehe...' Tyler chuckled internally as he took a glance at Rains chest as she sat ever so close to him.

Returning to the matter at hand, he had chosen to make his weapon similar to an odachi and not a katana because the design was very similar to Albert's Miaodao. Naturally, Tyler's version was slightly different. The length was longer than the katana but also shorter than the actual odachi and Miao Dao, a little similar to the Tachi but wasn't as curved. He wanted to be able to wield the weapon with one hand without the length getting in the way.

The melted ores and cores were poured into the mold and the magic crystal Tyler provided was added to the mix. He used the Tier 3 magic crystal he had gotten from the Gray-War troll since using a magic crystal when forging a weapon was a waste of the energy within. Most of the Mana within can't be contained within the raw materials so the use of magic crystals was usually frowned upon.

Of course, Tyler had received the five magic crystals he had turned into dark magic crystals from the settlement's stockpile which surprisingly only had six magic crystals within. He promised to pay them back but they refused although he would just do it anyway. Especially after what he did to their chief due to his petty nature.

While most blacksmiths would berate whoever ask them to use magic crystals in creating a weapon, Bungo, however, did not challenge Tyler, instead, he took it as a challenge. He planned on being the first blacksmith to retain 50 percent of the energy of the crystals.

According to his research, the highest percentage of energy retain while forging an item with the use of magic crystals was recorded at around 20% no matter what method was used in the forging process. Of course, Tyler believes there was magic that would help with that but it must've been of an insanely high level.

Bungo wore an enchanted glove and placed the magic crystal in a ladle. He then, with the aid of the glove cast a spell. Blue flames immediately melted the crystal inside the ladle and just as the melted ores and cores were being poured in the mild, he slowly added the liquefied magic crystal.

When he was done, he started the process again for Rain's dagger while waiting for Tyler's mold to cool. Bungo had a lot of enchanted tools that made his work easier. He could shape the blades with a few swings of his hammer without having to reheat the sword. The entire process only took about two hours and both his sword and Rain's dagger were completely done.

Bungo was quite excited to show off his work. He even went as far as to add some magic runes he had learned recently. Tyler however took one look at the runes and was disappointed. All it said was 'Silence' but Bungo had thought it said 'sharper'. Well, it wasn't all bad, the finished product was amazing. Rain's dagger looked similar to the original although they could tell it was way inferior.

She even told him her original blades were magic artifacts called, Epitome of Destruction. It was quite the long name but it did live up to it with its effects and the single skill it had. The dagger, when used as a pair boosted the strength and speed of its user by 30 and 20 percent especially, it also had the passive effect of causing destruction. Basically, every attack made with the blade would chip away at the target until it finally stacked enough to cause absolute destruction.

It also had the skill that could shatter any barrier depending on the level of the user. This was their original means of accessing this castle. The dagger wasn't as effective with just a single pair left but it was still a magic artifact and was still on a different level than other magic weapons.

Her new dagger also had the silence rune drawn in it and when she swung it around it made no sound even as it cut through the air with great speed. She looked pleased with the results and Tyler decided to appraise them.

A blade forged by a famed blacksmith with great concentration and focus. It contains the properties of two vastly different cores and a frame of Duranium was used to stabilize the attributes.

Primary Effect: Focus (Passive)

Whenever the wielder is in a focused state during battle. They would slowly recover their stamina and any injury they had sustained will start to heal at a rapid pace.

Secondary Effect: Poisonous Flames - Skill.

Launch a large ball of poisonous Green flames at a target. The attack consumes a radius of 15 feet.

'Wow, she lucked out.' She had gotten the two most useful skills from the two cores that were used in forging her blade. Rain received the appraisal sheet from Bungo and couldn't help her smile. It was a shame she lost one of her blades and could no longer use the set effect, but this was a great replacement.

She happily hugged Tyler however, Tyler was completely dejected at the moment. He had gone over to take a look at his sword and it looked incredibly cool. The blade had a tint of red and the hilt wasn't like the Japanese swords but it look awesome. However, the moment he appraised the weapon he lost all the excitement that had built up within him.

♦♦♦♦

Magic Weapon (Sword) -Epic Rank

Yet to be Named

A new type of sword forged by a famed blacksmith. This weapon was forged with a magic crystal and has surpassed the previously recorded assimilation percentage, it contains more than 30 percent of the energy of the crystal.

Primary Effect: Rapid Burst - Skill

Consumes durability to produce a burst of rapid and explosive strikes with an attack power that surpasses the user's tier.

♦♦♦♦

'That's it?' What a complete and utter waste of a magic crystal. The skill also meant the more he used it the sooner the weapon would become useless. It turns out there were a lot of reasons why it wasn't a good idea to use magic crystals when forging a weapon. Thinking of this differently, however, this would be the best weapon for him.

He planned on being a mage and intended to mostly fight as a mage so the only time he would use the weapon was if he was ever in a desperate situation. With such a powerful ability, this blade may one day save his life.

Thinking this way he cheered himself up and pulled Rain away from him. For some reason, she was still hugging him. "Why are you still holding on to me!"

"Hehe... I forgot."

She stuck her tongue out cutely acting like a klutz but Tyler suspected she knew what she was doing. "Alright let's go then." Tyler then placed the blade in his storage ring and was about to leave Bungo to his work when suddenly Rain asked him a question.

"So what do you plan to name your weapon."

"Name?"

"Yeah, it's important to name a magic weapon."

"Oh "

"Yeah, I'm gonna name mine Verlion. Isn't that cool." She said playing with the dagger in her hand. Tyler thought about it for a while and just picked a random name.

"I'll just call mine Narsil."

"Wow, as expected of lord Ty, such an amazing name." Bungo complimented with bright eyes. Rain nodded rapidly in agreement and Tyler was wondering why they were so excited. "Well, thanks... alright let's head out "

"Okay."

They were already halfway through the door when Tyler suddenly stopped and turned his head around to look at Bungo. "How's the artilleries for the towers coming along?"

"Yes, I'm almost done with the first one. I've just been having trouble adding the runes you gave me to the final product. But, I'm also running out of materials for the next one."

"I see, I'll add those material to my list then. Keep trying with the runes."

"Yes of course."
