Though Ves allocated a bit of time on putting Marvaine on the path of becoming his successor, he did not turn his attention away from his ongoing projects for long.
After handing Marvaine over to his nanny or his mother, Ves was able to work on his design projects without any unnecessary distractions.
The luminar crystal weapons of the Eye Project and the Bloodripper Project continued to occupy most of his attention.
Even as he fleshed out their designs by forming their shapes and finding the right material composition for specific crystals, he still felt that the guns lacked a crucial element.
Ves became increasingly more annoyed as this thought continued to take root in his mind.
It was as if he was designing a mech without making it alive. The luminar crystal weapons that he would develop at the end would never feel complete to him because of missing a mysterious factor.
