The Absolute: Humanity's Second Chance

Chapter 55 Godly Forging



The next day arrived, and Damien stood before Fez and Fa'ar. They talked about yesterday's conversation, the one he had with Fou, and agreed to think about it.

Meanwhile, Damien left and decided to walk around as he waited.

As for Flint, he was within a newly built forge ground, that did not take long for the professionals to quickly make.

It was not perfect, yet was good enough to forge tens of complete artifacts. And he decided to go to work immediately.

He took ahold of the storage ring in his hands, and took out everything within. They piled up before him into a small pile of treasures.

Bracelet of Norde(Superior), Bracelet of Sarrd(Superior), Bracelet of Barrd(Superior), Bracelet of Narrd(Superior), Mana Bracelet(Perfect Superior), Staff of Yggdrasil(Godly Unique), Spear Head(Superior), Gray Mask(Superior), Bracelet of Oid(Superior), Phantom Cloak(Superior), Heidi's Club(Superior), Red Cloak(Superior), Wings of Ash(Superior), Gouge Maker(Superior), Seven-Pieced Boomerang(Perfected Superior), Undying Ten Piece Armor(Perfected Superior), Gig's Hammer(Superior), Bear Coat(Superior), Axe of Nirvana(Godly Unique), Demon Fragment(1/7), Angel Fragment(1/7), False Angel Feathers(×36), Tier 1 Monster Core(×1), Hardened Bones(×16), Extra Sharp Beak(×1), Mole Claws(×8), Tier 1 Beast Cores(×26), Memory Shards(×10), Tier 1 Undying Vaccine(×1), God's Dew(×1), Condensed Divine Crystals(×10), Void Stones(×3), Tier 3 Teleportation Scrolls(×15), Barells of Faith(×10), Spirit Fragment(6/4), Tier 1 Spirit Shard(×5), Mana Core(×1), World Tree Syrup(×1), Mana Stones(×1000), Map of Voodooland(×1), An Unknown Black Stone,  Dragon Whip(Perfect Superior), Dragon Canon(Perfect Superior), Dragon Scale Shield(Perfect Superior), Dragon Heart(Tier 3/Incomplete)...

Almost a hundred treasures and resources altogether were packed before him. Flint was excited at such a sight, and hurriedly appraised them one by one.

'Such rare treasures. Where were they forged? They are low leveled alright, but greatly perfect in foundation. I can definitely work with this!!' He thought, and immediately went to work.

He first took the bracelets, and checked to see if he could make something out of them. After checking their definition, he searched for more resources within the pile, and found them.

Then chose some from his defective products at the nigh-godly level, matching in element with each bracelet. And of course, one bracelet had no match.

The Mana Bracelet.

'I'll substitute with the non elementary defective productI have. Hope it works.' He thought and decided to melt each Bracelet within a different high leveled cauldron-like object.

He threw each Bracelet within, and summoned his flames, which were tinged red, orange and gold, making the temperature climb all the way to 5000°C.

He then watched as each Bracelet melted, and he poured the resources he found within the pile of treasures.

Firstly, the Bracelet of Norde was mixed up with a powered "Fire Stone", a Tier 1 resource. Then next, was heated up with more flames than the others, before throwing in the red defective products he previously forged.

The other bracelets also had their own process, and he used different resources for each; a "Water Egg", a "Wind Orb", a "Valley Core" etc.

'I should keep the flames managed. The fire type artifact can absorb more flames than others, but the water type artifact needs less flames. The other three require equilibrium flames.' He thought, focused on his work.

He then finished up the mixture, and now only had to mold each one into a bracelet and let up the finishing touches.

But he had a crazy idea. 'As a forger, I treat every piece of work of mine as an organ of mine. I have to take care of it, like I take care of myself. I should forge it, as if I'm forging myself.'

'I have to become one with my art.' He thought, and went into a state of Trans.

He found himself mixing the mixtures of all molten-like various colored liquids, and stirring them up using his will and focus. It felt like he was mixing clay together.

At first, everything was chaotic, and gave out the impression that it would explode into pieces everywhere, and destroy the world.

But Flint knew that was just an illusion, and used his will to calm down the process. Once down, and everything mixed up together, bubbling as if to erupt...

Flint used his every brain cell to work out a formula at terrifying thought processing. And he immediately came to one, and sent his will within the pot to bring out his half-done piece of art.

At the same time, the world seemed to have vanished from his sight, and was replaced by a dark space.

He appeared within the dark space, and an illusory golden Anvil appeared before him. Within his hand, an illusory hammer also appeared.

[Creation Key]

[Ancient Anvil]

Two class skills were used, and he began banging down on the molten liquid with focus and extreme concentration. Three colored flames appearing from his body and began doing the refining, purification and evolution of the nigh-product to be born.

He banged down with his hammer again, and the Anvil resonated with it, creating sparks of creation that gathered into the molten liquid.

The bang also opened up the internal structure of the artifact. His mind then hurriedly worked out a Source Vein within. One so complex, it seemed like a child's rambled drawing.

Kang~

And with every bang, the molten liquid would slowky take shape, into a unique, and beautiful half-arm-lengthed bracelets that were still molten in nature.

The process continued for who knows how long, and Flint was already sweating buckets, and breathing heavily due to exhaustion. But he continued banging.

Kang~

And he continued, as he treated what was in his hands like his own flesh. Working on it with delicateness and caution.

Time went by, and by the time he was finished, two newly formed bracelets appeared before him. They were feminine in nature, and golden-bronze in color.

They were bracelets, that were attached to half lengthed metallic leather gloves, which were also feminine in style.

Above the glove, was a slot, and on the arm length, were four slots on each of these bracelets. Overall, they were amazing and powerful.

Flint smiled at them and hurriedly viewed their definition, looking forward to checking if he had succeeded at forging a godly artifact at the age of just 18 years!!

[ Bracelets of Mava-Mana ]

[ Godly Unique. A weapon forged by the Flame Demiurge at the age of 18, using five superior bracelets, a fire stone, a water egg.... ]

[ A weapon born to bring upon this world equilibrium within the Universal Principle, and even affects the very Essence of Mana-dynamics and Mana-nucleosis, Universal Rules. The one chosen by this artifact, shall have increased comprehension on the nine elementary laws by 1000%. Their Mana absorption shall be increased by 5000% every cultivation ]

[ Has the Unique Abilities, "Principle Prodigy", "Quintessential Mana Empress", "Cataclysm of Nature" ]

[ A work of Art ]

Unlike Damien and Juliette, Flint could see all the information this artifact could present. And he was surprised it went beyond just godly, and was godly unique!!

"Hahaha!! Hahaha!! I did it... I did it!!" He screamed out to himself in joy. He even wanted to skip out and show off, but knew he still had a lot to do.

Not only did he succeed, but he succeeded at making an artifact two Ranks beyond just Unique. It was truly amazing through and through.

He set his gaze on the treasures before him and smiled sheepishly. 'I'll advance all of them to unique, or godly, even if I have to use all that I have.' He thought.

He then stared down at the other treasures and resources, and immediately went to work. He did not know how much time went by, but to him, it seemed like ages.

And those ages, paid off!!

A total of twenty one Unique artifacts, and five Godly artifacts. Flint was exhausted, but he had a bright smile on his face, one that was full of accomplishment.

As for the single Godly Unique artifact, even he could not expect that. Along with the <Bracelet of Mava-Mana>, they were both unexpected.

He just wanted to upgrade the storage ring, and increase its size, only for this to occur. The resources and materials used, weren't even that great compared to the others.

He also could not explain the name, which was not something most forgers or blacksmiths do. Mostly, Unique and above artifacts name themselves according to their fate.

And this ring... also had its own fate.

He did not even dare to check out its definition, or whether it was still just a storage ring or not. He left all that to fate... and destiny.

"I should go meet up with that guy." He thought, and took everything out. He put them within the [Void Keeper(Unique)], which had a storage space of a hundred thousand cubic miles.

A great qualitative hange compared to Tier 3 storage type artifacts.
