9 Weapons and Quinque types (1/2)

Lucien was now in deep thoughts on designing his katana from kagune. The first weapon he decided to make was katana because it was his most beloved weapon and he was most proficient in using katana. His mother was a very good teacher when it came to regard teaching kenjutsu.

As Lucien was imagining katana his kagune was slowly taking the shape of a weapon. It started condensing in his right hand and after a few seconds of work, it was done. In Lucien's right hand was beautiful katana with pitch black handle and red blade. On the blade, there were some thread-like patterns in black color.

Lucien very satisfied with the result of his first tries to make the weapon from his kagune through shapeshifting. Thanks to that, katana was made of kagune it was far stronger and tougher than most weapons in this Low-Grade Dimension and only some of best quinque made by humans or some top-grade legendary weapon artifacts of this world.

”Good now you have completed the first step. Try to familiarize with your weapon. Just basic slashes would do.”

Selene was too satisfied with her son. Making weapons with kagune as material when one had detachable kagune was a rather hard task. It depended on the imagination of the person. If a ghoul can't imagine proper image with his fantasy he can't condense even basic kitchen knife.

Lucien did as his mother said and started to exercise and familiarize with a kagune weapon. He started basic slash, which he performed without any mistakes. He learned kenjutsu for a rather long time and he perfectly managed to perform basic stances like slash or pierce.

”Our kagune weapons are one of strongest weapon in this world. Only some legendary artifacts or top-grade quinque can rival them or destroy them.”

Said his mother as he was still practicing with his kagune katana. After hearing that he stopped his movements and walked to his mother. He was curious about one thing. Quinque. He knew only a little bit about the only weapon known to be able to kill the ghoul.

”Mother, could you please tell me more about quinque?”

Asked Lucien with sparkling eyes. His mother couldn't say no to her son when he was looking at her with these eyes.

”Of course my darling. Quinque is weapon manufactured from ghoul's kakuhou. It was invented by Adam Gehner and Washuu Yoshiu. They can be made into some type of melee or ranged weapon, but most retain a few characteristics from the original kagune. In contrast to kagune, quinque cannot change shape nor store or absorb Rc cells other than what was harvested from the ghoul it was made from. Preceding the quinque, humans had been using firearms to combat ghouls and needing a more efficient tool, they began intensive research that resulted in its creation. Made solely to exterminate ghouls, quinque were considered the new generation of technology, promptly and effectively raising the extermination rate. Ghoul investigators transport them in bags or suitcases to store the kakuhou. However, only Rank 2 ghoul investigators and up are permitted to use quinque.”

Lucien was listening to mother explanation about quinque. He heard two important people who invented quinque. Namely Adam Gehner and Washuu Yoshiu.
