After polishing his skills the entire night, a sudden idea struck his mind, deafening it like a thunderbolt.
He didn't know how he or anyone failed to think about it. Or maybe some did but were long dead, their knowledge turning into a lost page in this world's long history.
Yet, its application was undeniable.
A tremor jolted him, the idea resonating with everything he had learned until now.
'I can use alchemy to increase the materials' magical properties! Transmutation can also remove the impurities, making forging a breeze!'
Amidst his excitement, he understood that was the method Vikram used to forge Julius' gladius with his enchanter friend. Unlike him, he aimed to master those three crafts, becoming capable of doing everything alone.
Determination burned in his eyes for a moment, but he forcefully shoved it down.
'I must focus on the tournament for now.'
