146 Culling the Flock (2/2)

He considered himself lucky that the Vampire didn't consider him a threat.

Draig ignored Ginji's gaze in preference of testing the swords he had made as he transformed which kicked his regeneration into gear and allowed his blistered skin to heal back to it's normal condition.

Draig grasped the first of the Swords it's jagged green edge giving it a brutal appearance for a katana, ignoring its features he began channeling the Founder's avatar only to watch the sword crack in his grasp causing Ginji to gawk.

'Pathetic. . .' came the voice before Draig grabbed another one only for the same thing to happen.

Ginji at the side couldn't believe his precious works were being destroyed just by the power of an Avatar, if he had to be honest he would cast Draig out of his smithy but then again the Feratu wasn't someone he could afford to offend. This was besides the fact Draig was the reason he was able to get all of these materials.

Soon Draig had cycled through all of the swords Ginji had hung up and they had ended up in the same state of breaking.

'I won't use one of these flimsy swords. . . have the human forge me a proper vessel from the homeland' grunted the Founder as he struggled to continue fighting against the laws of the World of Deva.

”Ginji. . . Forge me a proper sword. We will create it under the same circumstances as the Thousand Fold blade” stated Draig as he looked at the broken blades laying on the ground.

Ginji heard the words and felt himself beginning to get excited until he remembered something.

”I don't have any corpses to use as the fuel. . . .” answered Ginji as he couldn't help but find himself disappointed.

”Does the age of the corpse matter” asked Draig causing Ginji to look at him curiously.

”I mean can a fesh corpse be used for the forging” elaborated Draig.

”It is possible but I haven't done it before so I am uncertain about the results it would show” started Ginji as he seemed to be contemplating the idea.

”There is one more thing Ginji, we will be making a different type of sword this time. It will be a straight blade with two edges. It will be able to contain more materials however I still wish for you to fold the blade as if we were making a Katana” stated Draig causing Ginji to become confused.

”Why would you want such a cumbersome weapon” asked Ginji as the Deva who used swords would choose to have a weapon that was lighter in order to be able to move quicker.

”Just do as he says” ordered Draig causing Ginji to become more surprised as the Founder in Draig's avatar looked down at Ginji menacingly.

'An Avatar requesting a sword. . . I have rarely heard of such a situation' thought the Grave forger as he nodded and picked up the blades that had been broken previously.

”I will find you some appropriate fuel” called Draig ominously as he left the Smithy leaving Ginji to reforging the broken swords once again.
