Chapter 999 A Brand New Battle Axe!
-----
All of Rakasha"s apprentices had only seen us a few times and faintly from the sidelines. They immediately freaked out even more when they saw me come back but with my entire family this time.
"I-It is our King again…"
"And his family?"
"Look, the two little princesses!"
"Ah, they"re so angelic…"
"Shut it! Don"t you see they"ll hear you?!"
"Amazing, he got two wives?"
"I don"t know, but rumors says he has two, yeah. Although some say that they"re also one."
"Huh? How does that makes sense?"
Because they were my citizens I decided to just let them do some little comments. They were not really offensive and I would be like a tyrannical king if I got angry they began commenting about us like that. Wouldn"t I be acting like those cultivation story douchebags main characters that kill anybody that looks at them the wrong way if I do this? Yeah, I just have to have patience.
I had already lost a lot of patience with the dragons offending my dad, to the point I went into a whole fight with them just to show them I and my father weren"t pushovers. It ended well, but the entire fight could had been avoided if I acted more… civilized.
"Anyways, I came with Benladann and Miranda to repair the axe." I said, as Benladann quickly brought out the Axe bits. The Axe was now still made of this Divine Ice but covered by several layers of metals and scales melded together.
"I see… Is this all? I remember you had another axe." Said Rakasha.
"This one? It is the new one Drake bought for me back in that city, it can channel dark element and was made by Dwarves, but it can still channel my chaos just fine… though it is about to break too." Said Benladann.
"I told her I wanted to merge both into one big axe, is it possible?" I wondered. I was rather good at weapon making myself, but Rakasha was the expert here, I asked him a suggestion because I was really intrigued.
"Yeah it is possible." Said Rakasha, rubbing his beard. "I can tell that it is possible, the fragments of this one are also all imbued with a soul, it still somewhat alive. After I became a G.o.d, I gained an ability to shape souls into weapons, something I did both of your weapons as well, Drake. I think I can do something. Also, this black axe has no soul though, but its work is exquisite, this is really the work of an advanced dwarf blacksmith. But now that I"ve become a G.o.d, I can even upgrade the art of Dwarves… Heh, I guess I"ve really become incredible. I"ll make some amazing equipment for Scarlet once I"m done here. And well, for me as well… there"s a big stash of items!"
"Hahaha, I can tell you"re pumped up." I said.
"Yeah! Should I use Ragnar?k"s materials for this too?" He asked.
"Yeah, please." Benladann said.
"Also can you use my own materials?" Wondered Miranda, suddenly giving Rakasha a piece of… a strange whirling phantasmal miasmic goo, an evolved form of her mold which is imbued with divine power.
"T-This is…?" He wondered.
"A piece of my body and soul together." Said Miranda. "Maybe you can make the weapon stronger with it…" Miranda said while seemingly looking a bit hopeful. Rakasha smiled back at her and nodded.
"Got it." He said.
And like that, Rakasha immediately started working.
CLANK!
CLANK!
CLANK!
Rakasha continued adding more and more materials, as his Divine Power was imbued into the weapons. I had asked him if he had enough Divine Power for what he was doing, but he apparently was only using a few hundred, and he had a few million still saved. He said he also automatically gained Divine Power whenever he finished a weapon, often thousands, so a way for him to grow stronger was by creating, repairing, and upgrading items.
He started differently this time, he first used the hammer to smash the axe into even smaller bits, and then he summoned a large furnace, a Divine Furnace, part of his own Divinity power, which he used to melt the axe bits and then create a blue ingot. Benladann was looking with horror because she thought the soul inside would die… but that was far from the truth, the soul remained inside the ingot, and became even bigger and stronger through the entire smelting process.
"A-Amazing, the soul got stronger and bigger…" Benladann said.
"Yeah, I can tell…" Miranda said. "Rakasha"s power… just how amazing did he became now?"
"Hah, I am sure this is not even his max potential yet… He had gone from someone already very useful to someone indispensable for our adventures from now on…" I said with a smile, as I saw him using the blue ingot and several other materials into the black axe, using it as the base.
CLANK!
CLANK!
CLANK!
After that, he quickly added more ores and materials which I had already seen before, and then the scales, fangs, bones, and even an eye of Ragnar?k, and a part of her Divine Core and Dragon Heart, both materials of incredible quality within dragon bodies.
"And the last ingredient…"
Rakasha threw the squirming ma.s.s of miasmic mold into Benladann"s axe, and then the entire axe began to emit a large quant.i.ty of purple and red aura around its entire surroundings. This aura was miasma. However, it seemed to not hurt anybody, as if it were also a soul, filled with a consciousness, maybe closer to a ghost or phantom…
"It is done…" Rakasha said. "However, it is not allowing me to wield it. Only the chosen wielder can."
"Oh…" Benladann slowly walked towards the enormous Battle Axe, emitting a large quant.i.ty of divine miasmic and chaotic power. It was majestic, it had grown up to five meters of length, fitting for an Ice Giant, and might be able to adjust its size like Skadi and Uller can as well. Not only that, but its decorations were exquisite even though we barely saw Rakasha being delicate with his forging methods… this was truly the work of a G.o.d of forging such as him.
"h.e.l.lo Benladann… Sorry for making you wait."
And the Axe spoke back to Benladann.
"Axe-chan!"
