Chapter 243: Time for the hammer. (2/2)

‘Good… They shouldn’t know aboutwhile he was going through the letter What he wanted it to focus on was the Solarian Inquisitors and the Golden Order It seerandfather that was one of the few High Inquisitors had survived With the into enemy hands, they could not be brainwashed to reveal his secret

There was nothing specific in the information about the battle that took place only about the after shi+ps that the church used had been destroyed after a uild believed that the cultists someho up the entire area after victory was not possible Soical circle was spotted that produced a pillar that reached the sky

‘So they really did it… perhaps thatfeature?’

Roland wasn’t sure, if the relic could have been destroyed from a distance, why didn’t they just do it? Perhaps there was soured out a way to block it? The cult could have also atteet it back and only ith the ato is that Loreena was spotted later in Reeka, they hadthe underground where the thieves guild is… but that’s about it for the report…’

After their escape and the olden order apparently pulled out from the forest They had suffered a lot of casualties and only the strongest members had survived With the help of the tier 3 paladins, it wasn’t hard to quell the e was already done It would probably take years to recover losses, and get neorkers and merchants on board Most of them would probably flee to other cities and perhaps even to the ht even affect the whole Valerian Household… the duke allowed a cult to exist under his nose, the other dukes will see this as a chance Though Arthurs's brother will take the brunt of this attack, if he was co for the duke position this will probably exclude him from the competition…’

Roland knew that Duke Alexander Valerian hadlords would be forced to coainst each other for the duke’s spot in the future With a blunder like this and all the bad press, whoever was stationed in Reeka would have a hard tiestthe co, if there is no labor force to work they can’t do anything’

Would commoners answer the call to cooods? Even if the ood contracts, everyone would think twice before going to a danger zone like that It would probably take some tied while looking at the s that his acquaintances froolden order had survived another probleets toward Loreena as the person responsible for this debacle This didn’t put him in the clear just yet The woo around the relic and he had proposed using runic e if he was on the church watchlist now

‘That inquisitor is a problem too…’

He recalled the person that knew his own father The oldand apparently related to Loreena as he referred to her as his granddaughter Roland had no idea of knohat these two individuals would decide to do Would they just shrug hiic for questioning he would not be able to lie and have to reveal his special skill He would then be turned into a human detection device to disable cult relics

‘The proble, he decided to not worry about the s to counter the abyssal cultists Even a priest of Sister Kassia’s level would be able to tell if any strange rituals were taking place so they couldn’t do anything in the open

The thieves guild was already coround tunnels for any potential secret lairs and giving inforo aithout hi to involve himself anymore He only needed to act as a norht aid hi…’

His mind went back to the wolf ar on his rank-up test he had already created a schey arive Agni some spell variety The e for fire spells while also ad buffing spells, just like Roland’s aranizing the various parts, he turned on the forge After grabbing large tongs froni’s barding It was angular for the purpose of deflecting blows to the side by enerate a ular one or a fire one

He was not sure how his ould handle the activation requirements so for now, he decided to inscribe spells to different parts The only thing Agni would need to do was to send a jolt of mana down a specific part This would be a true test for his partner's intelligence, would he be se wolf or just activate each spell effect at the same time and cause a mess?

‘Hm… I should probably lower the output to thecontinuously down on the heated breastplate and the runes started to quickly take shape With his current skill level, he didn’t really needskills were constantly advancing, his regular blacks two coet less and less need to prepare the various parts hiiven up on his life as a crafts ready to create his neeapon After going through his recent adventure, the constant switching between his e and his sas suboptiician's staff into one For this he needed the large bulkyup in his smelter

This would be the base for his next n of this runic weapon would have one side of it being flat while the other would have a spike This rear spike would be great for penetrating hard are Both sides would have their own runic effects to augest downside of this construction would be the weight but thanks to his ar his stats, he would have no probleth to the ical rod that he used It would allow him to perform two-handed strikes if he so chose Then with the help of his enhanced strength, he would also be able to hold a shi+eld in his left hand if the need arose

‘Hope the retractable shaft won’t coh to keep it frointo this new field sonored It was possible to go around the constraints of traditionalmade from Mythril could be made paper-thin but it would still protect a person froular steel Yet even if it wouldn’t break due to the weight, he still needed to balance it out by taking his ariant slab ofliquified in the runic smelter The base would of course be made from aether durasteel but there would be so, he had finally figured out the correct ratio between the variouswith the red Mythril that he had excavated froeon

Most of the expensive parts would be gathered in the top part of this war hah the hammerhead as a separate part While it would be an important component of the weapon it didn’t require Etheriuh the ha process was done, he would use the usual blackse slab into shape With his increased stats and techniques he was already miles away from any conventional or modern blacksmith even if they used power tools This would be the next creation that he hoped would last him all the way until he reached tier 3 Then perhaps with increased knowledge, he would create an iical rune user

“Well then, this will be very therapeutic… after this is finished I should get to the dungeon and start leveling up”

While theup he decided to peek towards another corner of his workshop There he opened a secret door that looked like a part of the wall He did so by infusing a serprint The iven the wall started to shi+ft to the side

What he was greeted as a pitch-black tunnel that slowly started to light up It had been clearly reinforced by hts continued to flicker up to reveal quite the length that this tunnel had

“I hope it orth digging this whole place up, it took years but its mostly finished now…”

After a little look, he decided to close the door First, he needed to get his weapons in order, and then it was ti a break for a week, so see you next week o/
