Chapter 192
Evan D. Sherden, Carry Out A Quest (4)
Ella lanted in her despair at the finished weapon before them.
[We synthesized all the materials in perfect proportions…]
[I am sure we did.]
[The magic of the materials worked together wonderfully and succeeded in getting rid of almost all the toxins…]
[Yes, yes, that too.]
Ella’s dainty lips trembled in anger at Evan’s calm reaction.
[And lastly, I made it for the man who I thought would wield it…]
“Of course, that’s you, Master Evan.”
“Thank you, Horta.”
[The result…….]
Ella picked up the little lump on the anvil and began to shout. It looked like a pill prescribed by the oriental clinic.
[That’s the result! After all the rare materials, and the blood and sweat, and years of waiting, above that, making sothing for this murderous miscreant in front of …what the hell is this!?]
[Satisfying the conditions must have predetermined the outco of the artifact.]
[But this isn’t a blade! It’s not even a weapon!]
[No.]
[You…… You!!!!]
Ella threw it at Evan in anger. It was naughty of Evan to catch it with his index finger and thumb in ti. A mouthful-sized sphere… It had a very mysterious and fragrant sll, perhaps because the magical process had removed all the venom.
A smile hung around Evan’s mouth. Having got what he had wanted, the quest was accomplished.
On the way, Evan had been worried about what would happen at the beginning of the extra scenario, but as a result, sothing better ca out. It had been good to bring Horta along.
[You knew this would happen from the beginning! You must have encouraged to make this!]
[Bingo!]
[You, you bastard! You bastard! I’ve been taken advantage of by a wicked man!]
[Calm down, Ella.]
Evan first cherished the pill, and then cald Ella down.
[Would you have trusted if I had told you about the outco before you made this?]
[No!]
[Would you have given up making this if I hadn’t co here?]
[Hell no!]
[So what is the matter with you? I only helped you make what you wanted to make. Shouldn’t you be thanking ?]
[Yuck, that’s……!]
Evan was not the object of Ella’s anger. Ella was well aware of it, too.
She was only disheartened because the recipe for the most powerful blade handed down from generation to generation in her family was a facade.
Ella needed a vent for her anger at the centuries-long lie that had been passed down to her. And Evan happened to be in front of her: a human prophet who forced her into reality, an ignorant and oblivious dwarf.
Evan was the perfect target for Ella to vent on. However, as she had coldly pointed out, she had no energy left to feel angry.
[Woo…! Damn it! My family’s long-cherished desire, the will of the Land Fairies……! It’s all ssed up. I’ve wasted countless hours behind this worthless piece of….]
[There’s one thing I need to correct: it wasn’t worthless.]
[Explain!]
[Well, listen closely.]
The Land Fairies had made minor mistakes in interpreting the ancient docunts. The recipe for the most powerful blade in the ancient docunts was not tallurgical.
It was true that the production process required a high level of tallurgy. However, the process was only in the form of tallurgy, and it was more of an alchemical work than tallurgy.
[Alchemy…?]
[Yes. Many ancient techniques beca tallurgical through alchemy, or on the contrary, alchemical through tallurgy. More precisely, there was a ti when alchemy and tallurgy were indistinguishable.]
People used to call it [The Age of Gods].
[The key was not wrong. This is the recipe for the most powerful blade. But God thought there was a limit to the sharpness of the blade made from material objects…….]
[So?]
[He ca up with this idea because He wanted to evolve the sharpness of things infinitely. Level up……. In other words, if we could create a blade through an extension of the essence of a living being, it would be the most powerful blade. That’s how this recipe was born, ‘the most powerful blade’ ever.]
[I don’t understand.]
“I don’t understand either.”
It was probably alchemy from this point, it should be made with tallurgical techniques, but it was a complicated quest that required alchemy to understand the fundantals.
[It’s a combination of the abilities of things and the possibilities of living things. We’ve had a lot of examples of this before, haven’t we? As a result of exploring simple natural phenona of the human body, Magic has developed. As a result, even disasters beyond natural phenona can be created with the human body. It’s the sa thing.]
[That’s magic, and this is…!]
[Magic. No, to be more precise…….]
Evan took the pill out of his hands again once Ella seed to have cald down to so extent.
There was sothing that made him even more reluctant about the brilliant black reagents that emitted a strangely pleasant aroma. Evan swallowed it.
[What?!]
“I-t-it’s poisonous. Master, there is poison. We have purified it as much as we can, yet it hasn’t been resolved!”
“It’s okay. I’m a poison-resistant person.”
The change was not so dramatic. The pill that went into Evan’s mouth lted in a flash and spread to his whole body, and the next mont, his whole body glittered faintly.
Evan exhaled a deep sigh, feeling the hot energy rising from within his body. When Evan had learned a new skill, he felt a unique sense throughout his body. His status had probably increased, too.
[It’s a skill.]
[Skill?!]
[Yes. You succeeded in making the most powerful blade in the form of skill.]
Now that he had mastered the skill, it would not be hard to demonstrate it.
Evan quietly reached out one hand and activated the skill. Soon dark purple ethereal energy rose from his fingertips and ford a blade that covered Evan’s entire hand.
He drew lightly on the nearby wall with it. He was able to carve a deep cut on the wall with a simple swing.
[Uh, uh…….]
“I got it…… Skin Blade.”
It was called SB in short. The skill embellished the user’s hand with a blade-like energy.
It was a blade, but it could be used without practicing swordsmanship. It was a ridiculous skill requiring a high level of grappling to be effective.
Perverted players who wanted to cheat through the Yo-Ma Great War Series 3 with their bare bodies must refine their grappling skill to utilize this skill!
It could be considered too strong for a starter skill. However, perhaps Evan’s high level of grappling, high level of presence, and mana had affected it.
“This ans that you can easily damage enemies who have resistance to blunt weapon strikes and bare hand attacks by adding slash attacks. I don’t understand the fact that it could deal damage, though it has an attribute for it.”
“So we embody the strongest blade from your body?”
Horta asked, ignoring Evan’s usual nonsense. Evan replied with a grin.
“I don’t think it’s the sharpest blade yet. If I keep growing it, it will be… soday.”
According to Leo, Evan’s grappling was probably much better than Evan realized. Perhaps one day, he would be able to produce the most powerful blade ever.
Unless a death sign swallowed Evan before that!
[The most powerful blade…]
Ella was disheartened and unconvinced.
But now, there was nothing she could do. Ella had no choice but to compromise with the harsh reality.
[Whew…… It was foolish of to turn to the outside world, after all. You made realize it well, Human Prophet. I will make the most powerful blade forged by my own strength. Without borrowing the power of other creatures, I will make the most powerful blade of the materials I choose!]
[I’ll cheer you on.]
[I don’t want your support.]
[Ella, co to the dungeon city with us.]
[…….]
Ella put on a slim face. She had been expecting the offer. The natural-born blacksmiths, the Land Fairies, were extrely coveted by humans.
From the past, the Land Fairies preferred to hide because of human between the Land Fairy and the Human was worse than that of the Forest Fairy.
[If you were a real Human Prophet, you would know how I would react. No. I’ll never go to any of the dungeon cities. Humans only crave powerful weapons to cause destruction. Absolutely not!]
[Actually, I’m the second son of the lord of the dungeon city of Sherden. My full na is Evan D. Sherden. If you co with , no other humans can bother you. Never.]
[Aha, now you’re showing your true intention. You will exploit proudly as the ruler of the city!]
Land fairy Ella was already preparing to run away. Evan still had a relaxed look on his face, and Horta was caught in the middle, beginning to lose his wits.
[Every human being is the sa. I thought you guys were different, but now your intentions are clear.]
[If you’re still greedy to make the most powerful blade, you’d better co with to Sherden.]
[Nonsense!]
[Whatever you make, if you don’t get past this, you’ll have to give up your dream of making the most powerful blade.]
Evan replied, shaking his hand with the Skin Blade again in front of Ella’s eyes, who deftly dismissed his words.
Ella’s expression proved that his words had affected her, but soon, she shook her head again.
[I won’t acknowledge it as a blade. A blade changes its performance depending on a human’s power. It’s not a weapon. That’s not the weapon I’m trying to make.]
[You need access to rare materials and better equipnt. The dungeon city gathers all kinds of materials from the world. The dungeon city has the best tal, the hardest, sharpest monster bones, the myriad information to supplent your knowledge, and the great blacksmith partner, who is human and has already created a few artifacts.]
[…….]
Evan spoke as sincerely as he could. He was ready to provide Ella with the best environnt. If he were not, he wouldn’t have even brought Horta along.
Evan fluttered in the chair he had taken out earlier and handed Ella a lump of tal from his inventory pocket. The mana tal, EB tal, was being supplied to the dungeon city for so ti now.
[I’ve never seen anything like this before. Mana tal? Alloy? It’s hard. It has pure mana, and its hardness……!]
[It’s an alloy I made. Of course, there’s soone who helped.]
[!?]
[True. As I said before, Master Evan has prepared everything for to make artifacts. This is one of them.]
[You, like a human being, try to seduce with things……!]
Ella instinctively hid the EB tal in her arms, her words might have been in denial, but her body was honest. Evan was smiling. It was a devil’s smile.
[Ella, a great blacksmith like you needs a better environnt. I can arrange it for you. I don’t an to exploit you. You will work at your own leisure. You’re also free to make whatever you wish, to your heart’s content. I’ll also provide you with the best accommodation.]
[S-stop. Stop talking.]
[I’m going to make you the best Land Fairy blacksmith there ever was. But, I can only manage all of this if you agree to make sothing helpful for the Dungeon Knights and . I don’t even intend to spread it to humans. I’m not stupid enough to spread the Land Fairy’s armor. You won’t be hard. I swear on my soul.]
[Stop……!]
[On the 97th floor of the Sherden Dungeon, there’s talk of a dragon still alive…….Dragon Bone. Don’t you want to deal with it?]
[…Ah, ah!]
Ella collapsed on the floor. But she still held the EB tal tightly in her arms. Evan forced a finishing blow there.
[The most powerful blade… You’re going to make it, aren’t you?]
Evan, who had been catching hundreds of billions of slis so far, gave Ella a strong finish.
Two hours later, there were five people in the carriage together on the way back to Sherden.
