After Lander expected the weapons and was contented, Icebeard told the Dwarven King to prepare the ground arena for Lander to showcase on how to use the weapons he just created.
There were a lot of spectators whether humans, elves and dwarves. They were curious as well on what will be showcased today.
But when they saw Lander, an outcast in the middle of the ground arena, almost half of the audience left. Only some dwarves and elves stayed while all the humans left feeling disgusted.
"Tsk! How could we watch a lowly human being?"
"Right! This is a disgrace to us elites!"
"Let's just go and ignore that outcast bumpkin!"
Most of the dwarves snickered at those humans, "If you knew that Icebeard was the one who initiated this showcase then they would surely regret."
"Of course! How could our Dwarven Hero just organize a showcase without a good performance."
"Still, they were right. He is still an outcast."
"Let's just watch his performance and we'll judge it from there."
Not long after, a dummy was placed in front of Lander. On the side was a table where the sample weapons created by Icebeard were placed.
Lander took first the shuriken and moved away creating a distance of fifty meters before he threw the weapon towards the dummy. The shuriken went straight to the forehead of the dummy that made the expectators gasped, "So it is a throwing weapon! That could be use to sneak attack!"
Next, Lander used the dagger and moved like an assassin before beheading the dummy. He wasn't proficient in using it but he has practiced with his knives a lot of times when he was in this world. Still, he managed to awed the audience.
"Cool!"
"That was actually amazing!"
After beheading the dummy, it was again replaced by a new one.
Spear, Lander's expertise aside from martial arts. It was the dragon amongst weapons. He did some exhibitions first before using it to stab the dummy.
"His movement was like an art form!"
"Those profound movements can't be simply imitated in just a day!"
After the spear, comes the halberd. Lander did the same thing with the spear but how he used it to stab the dummy was different as he used the hook of the halberd perfectly.
"Great! I could actually use that weapon!"
"Just like the spear but the way to use it is different."
Lastly, Lander held the scythe on his hands as he wandered on how to use it. He only knew of this weapon by watching certain animes. He has no idea on how to use it, "Well, I'll just show what I know!"
Holding the scythe, Lander jumped rotating 180 degrees as he swung the scythe above his head. And when he landed, he just swung again the scythe that made the dummy fully exploded. He was stunned, he never expected this to happen, "Awesome!"
"That is one weapon so hard to handle!"
"Right! But the explosiveness was worth it."
Icebeard was satisfied on the weapons he forged upon witnessing the capabilities of it. He was full of pride.
On the other hand, the Dwarven King sighed upon seeing that most of the weapons can't be used by their race as they don't have the height to fully incorporate the movements used by Lander.
Gripping the scythe on his hand, Lander swung it as he practiced with it feeling that it was the most appropriate weapon for him.
Despite feeling the awesomeness of the scythe, Lander was still reluctant to abandon the spear so he was pondering which one to use. Of course, he would still be carrying a dagger with him for a close combat encounter and a set of shurikens for a sneak attack.
After a while of pondering, he hammered his right hand using his left hand as a hammer as a great idea popped on his head. Then, he immediately ran towards Icebeard with excitement, "Hey, Dwarven old man, I have an idea. Can you listen to it?"
Seeing the excitement of Lander, Icebeard was curious, "Say it!"
"Can you make me a weapon that could transform? From a scythe, then to a spear, a sword? Ah also the last transformation could be a staff, a plain staff?" Lander blurted out his crazy idea.
"Transforming weapon? Hmmmm..." Icebeard pondered for a while.
"Excuse me young man, but please don't be so rude to our Dwarven Hero," The Dwarven King butted in.
"Dwarven Hero?" Lander looked at the Dwarven King with interest.
"Sigh," The Dwarven King told Lander that Icebeard was their Hero after the All Race War two hundred years ago. Every race in the Dragon Continent had a war because of the emergence of a Rank S beast that every race was willing to fight for. Unfortunately, the beast ran away towards the Void Continent never to be spotted again. Icebeard was the one who led the attack and was able to kill thousands of his enemies alone. After the war, he went back to his hobby, it was forging.
"Rank S? There is still a greater Ranking for beasts?" Lander was stunned.
"Only a few knew of this. Royalties of each race has only the records of it." The Dwarven King explained to him.
"Can you tell me more my King?" Lander was hoping for some information.
"I have to experiment first before I can make such kind of weapon," Icebeard suddenly said interrupting them after a long pondering.
"How long can I wait then sire Dwarven Hero?" Lander was expectant.
"That name was long gone, just Icebeard is enough. Though I can say, it will take me three months to have one. Not the best but I can make it." Icebeard said with determination.
"So how much can it be?" Lander asked.
"I will give you the list of ores and metals I need to forge it," Icebeard said nonchalantly.
"As long as you can do it, I'll find it." Lander said excited. Then Icebeard walked away as he just nodded at the Dwarven King.
"Why do I feel that he's higher than you?" Lander asked as he looked at the King.
"Because in the entire Dragon Continent, he's the only living legend alive!" The Dwarven King said proudly as he showed his respect towards Icebeard.
Lander gasped and became more excited.
