Chapter 40 - 40) Inferno Blaze

After coming out of the time chamber I asked Autolycus about anything important that happened during the last three weeks. Autolycus said " When you were in the time chamber a competition was held between spirits to see which gods are selected. 30 spirits were selected as participants and along with the 20 humans it's 50 contestants. There are still 3 days left what are you going to do? ". I said " I have some things to do in the human realm bye" and went to an empty place and used spatial magic to return to the human realm.

I first went to the blacksmith and asked if the sword was ready. Jake the blacksmith said, " I am almost done it will only take an hour to finish it ". I asked him " How do you create weapons using mana crystals? ". He replied " I can analyse any mana crystal and create anything using the analysed crystal. But the time to analyse a crystal varies based on its rank. It will only take an hour after analysing the crystal to create a weapon. I just finished analysing your crystal so it will be ready in an hour".

I asked him if I can watch how he crafts it and he accepted my request. He opened his grimoire and said " Blacksmith creation magic sword crafting ". The mana crystal slowly started to change its shape. I copied his blacksmith magic and upgraded it to ancient rank. I started reading the description of ancient blacksmith magic.

Ancient blacksmith magic can analyse and create any weapon instantly. It also gives its user all the knowledge about the weapon they are about to craft. It can also point out every minor/major error in the weapon and correct it even after the weapon is crafted.

I could instantly craft the sword but he worked hard and analysed the crystal for a month so I just waited for him to finish the weapon. It looked amazing. When I asked him for a sword last month he asked me what type of sword I would like and showed me all types of sword designs.

I wanted a glaive(two swords connected by their handles) but I wanted 2 swords to be detachable so that I can dual wield them. Jake suggested that a blade would be better if I wanted to dual-wield. So he made me a glaive with blades on two sides.

The difference between a sword and a blade is that a sword can be used to stab others and can slash using both sides. A blade can be used to stab others but one side of the blade is sharper than the other so one side slashes twice as a sword but the other side is not used for slashing. In short, it is a sword in the shape of a katana.

Jake said, " The weapon is finished so do you like it? ". I nodded my head and he asked me to give this weapon a name. Since this weapon was made from flame boar King I wanted to name the weapon as Inferno Blaze.

I finally got the weapon from him and left. I upgraded the weapon to ancient rank. I wanted this weapon because if I were to face someone else with anti-magic my swords made of mana will be destroyed so this weapon can prevent that. Besides it also has ancient rank flame magic now. I put the weapon inside my spatial inventory and went to Golden Dawn headquarters.

I reported to Isabella "I have some work to do and I don't know when it will end so I want to apply for leave ". It's a good thing the headquarters was destroyed or they would have questioned me about where I went and why I didn't do missions. Isabella accepted and said that she will report to the others too. I thanked her and teleported to the spirit realm.
