As Daedalus came to the realisation that the sword was alive, just not sentient yet, he immediately left his crafting room. Daedalus began walking to the family area and when he arrived his parents looked over seemingly worried. Selda then said to Daedalus "Daedalus where have you been for the past week!?"
Daedalus blinked a few times in shock before saying "A week? Whatever I made a breakthrough in my forging techniques and need to find Danforth."
Danel looked over and said "Well I think he was in his room cultivating, I think he just reached the twelfth stage of mana cultivation yesterday."
Daedalus smiled and began walking towards Danforth's room.
After reaching Danforth's room Daedalus quickly walked in and said to Danforth "Danforth I need your help. Do you have any techniques for splitting the soul or placing a part of a soul in a weapon?"
Danforth just nodded and then a small booklet at Daedalus' head, clearly annoyed that Daedalus had disturbed his cultivation. Daedalus caught the book said "Sorry!" and quickly ran back to his crafting room.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Entering the room Daedalus quickly found a seat and began reading the book. From what Daedalus could comprehend from the book was that if he split his soul his cultivation in the soul would be split but he would be able to think two things at once, or he could send a half of his soul into a weapon making it a lifeblood weapon. Daedalus of course did not mind the set back and immediately and carefully began to split his soul in two.
After a few excruciatingly painful minutes Daedalus had split his soul. Daedalus however did not stop there and immediately pulled out the sword. As he set the sword down the half of his soul that he wanted to place in the sword quickly moved towards the blade and began fusing with the center of the sword.
As his soul was easily stronger than the unawakened sword, Daedalus quickly felt a connection between him and the sword forming. As the soul finished fusing a feeling washed over him, it was as if the sword was an extension of his own body. At the same time as that feeling came to Daedalus, his new lifeblood sword began to take in the energy from the surroundings.
After a few minutes of cultivating the blade had an enchanting blue glow that gave it an other worldly feeling. Thinking about it Daedalus decided that he would later make the names of the swords cultivation stages when he had time.
Daedalus the picked up the sword and said "Your name from this time forth shall be Void Weaver!"
As Daedalus said this the sword glowed brighter for a moment before going back to normal.
Daedalus then decided to do a few tests with Void Weaver. First he tried using his own mana to help the sword cultivate and to see if their energies where still compatible. In the end they where compatible but he was not able to help it cultivate for some reason. He also tested how sharp it was against some Adamantine and found that it was able to relatively easily make small cuts in the metal. With that done Daedalus finally went to sleep for the first time in a week or so.
