Prome's Alchemy Shop.
There was no delivery or stockpile work today, and it was almost nighttime. The shop had no customers, so Dave left his post and went to his workbench. He planned to see if he could mix additional materials into a "Tang Dao" in order to grant extra effects to the weapon.
Compared to enchantment, the process of synthesis was a lot slower. However, synthesis had a way better chance of triggering the secondary effects of materials, and as long as one could find valuable materials, they could apply greater effects.
Bit by bit, Dave melted the chunk of metal in his hand. He then weaved the liquid into a cluster of strings before carefully sending them into the flame.
He widened his eyes in excitement when the blade took on a bright glimmer like the stars.
"I did it!"
He lifted the weapon in his hand and sliced at a touchstone nearby.
